Original copies, unplayed ** Roberto Donnini is an architect, visual artist, and musician who has realized several remarkable avantgarde LPs from the 1980s and 1990s, pure droning soundscapes with a sophisticated blending of a rich instrumentation performed by an incredible cast of guest players.

In C
* Limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on gold vinyl. Includes insert * In the history of Western art music, few compositions have achieved the paradoxical feat of radical simplicity coupled with profound transformative power. Terry Riley's In C, composed in 1964, stands as the most deceptively modest yet revolutionary work of the twentieth century, a single page of musical notation that fundamentally altered the trajectory of American composition and established the foundation of…
A Rainbow In Curved Air
• Limited edition of 750 numbered copies on yellow vinyl. 180 gram audiophile vinyl • In the pantheon of American experimental music, few works possess the historical gravitas and enduring influence of Terry Riley's A Rainbow in Curved Air, released in 1969 on CBS Records' short-lived "Music of Our Time" series. This album represents nothing less than a seismic shift in the trajectory of Western art music, establishing compositional and technological precedents that would reverberate through fi…
Jazz In Silhouette
One of the great enigmatic figures of jazz, Sun Ra's persona as philosopher, showman and space enthusiast often overshadowed his purely musical accomplishments as one of the most prolific and creative composers and big band leaders in the business. The current release contains one of Sun Ra's most exceptional and highly regarded albums of the 1950s: Jazz in Silhouette. Although the exact recording dates are unknown (no details were given on the original LP back cover, which included no liner not…
More Wealth Than Money
*2025 stock* Normil Hawaiians had a transformative 1982. With two 7” singles and a 12” EP under their belts they suddenly found themselves disillusioned with the increasingly generic sounds surrounding them, so they forced the hand of change and began reaching out with that very hand. The band’s true constant in Guy Smith soon found himself with a new crew of musicians, Simon Marchant, Noel Blanden and Mark Tyler. Normil Hawaiians’ communal take on post punk quickly sprouted leaves from its mout…
Tante Case Vuote / Scritte sul Retro / Angiporto / Terreni Golenali
Tip! *35 copies limited edition, handmade 4 CDr bundle* Elusive and enigmatic, Loris Zecchin—working under the name Petroglifi Solubili—has, for several years now, been developing his own personal vision of noise music. His work blends literary influences—shaped by a deep passion for Italy’s rich short stories tradition—with fragments of marginal cultures like mail art (hence his fondness for handmade, photocopied album inserts), and the unconscious forces that seep into even the most mundane ge…
Segnale Unico di Avvio
Tip! ** Edition of 100, glass-mastered CD, includes poster ** A new face from the furthest North-East of Italy, Trieste: the city of the "bora", a powerful and relentless wind that for many of its inhabitants represents a state of mind, more than a simple typical atmospheric event. Petroglifi Solubili is the project by Loris Zecchin (Solar Ipse fanzine), born in 2021 with a simple sampler (the legendary Roland SP-404) and gradually expanded with an equipment that includes a number of synths, gui…
The Cliffhanger Session
Tip! This new acoustic trio is consisting of three of the most iconic players of todays European jazz, improvisation and experimental music scene. This line-up took a long birth phase, but was a logical step and basically came out of juggling the possibilities and attempts of combining the effort of two high energy noise + electro-acoustic duos: Ignaz Schick/Oliver Steidle (Ilog) and Ingebrigt-Håker-Flaten/Ignaz Schick. Both duos started in 2013 (Ilog) and 2015 (Håker Flaten/schick) and have a l…
Broadsides
In 2023, sound artist and composer Weston Olencki toured across the American South. Beginning in their hometown in South Carolina, they snaked a circuitous path from the mountains of West Virginia to the banks of the Mississippi River. As the miles accumulated, so did the initial seeds of new work. Instruments and artifacts they acquired hitched a ride in the backseat, while songs and sounds filled their portable recorder: water in its various states, the familiar insectoid buzz of those summer …
Inaudible Works 1994-2008
What have we here? 16 pieces of hard-to-classify music, created during the period 1994-2008, a cornucopia of playful, intelligent, questing and eminently listenable electronic music from Osaka-born artist Hyu, who released two albums on Nobukazu Takemura's Childisc label, in 1999 and 2002. Although a member of the turn-of-the-century generation of artists subsumed under the rather vague term "electronica", his work stands apart in many ways, particularly in his unique exploration of microtonalit…
Is Noise Vol. 1
TAKAAT (pronounced tuh-cot), meaning “noise” in the Tuareg language Tamashek, is the trio of Ahmoudou Madassane, Mikey Coltun, and Souleymane Ibrahim, also known as the rhythm section of Mdou Moctar. TAKAAT is sonic chaos, improvisation, freedom of exploration, and the punk styles of bands such as Fugazi and Unwound, all mixed together with the guitar music from the Sahel.
TAKAAT started during soundchecks while on the road with Mdou Moctar when the trio indulged their shared love for amps crank…
Batch #6 - Party
40girls by Ya Tosiba: Rooted in folk music’s storytelling spirit the album introduces a dynamic conversation between generational memory and progressive innovation. It is crafting a soundscape that feels feminine, elusive and powerfully transformative. The album opens with delicate samples of the Şüştər and Rahab makams with its soft and ethereal textures intertwining with subtle, noisy experimentation. Kita Koun Kan by Sabou-Gnouman De Kita: Kita, a small town in the West of Mali was once consi…
Throwing Shapes
*300 copies limited edition* From the innovative visionaries Méabh McKenna, Ross Chaney, and WRWTFWW mainstay Gareth Quinn Redmond emerges Throwing Shapes—the self-titled debut album of a genre-defying new project set to captivate listeners worldwide. Throwing Shapes is a mesmerising, sonically rich exploration that artfully blends tradition with experimentation.
At the heart of the album lies the evocative timbre of the Irish wire-strung harp, masterfully played and reimagined within modern con…
Safari
WRWTFWW Records is extremely happy to present the official reissue of Safari's self-titled album from 1984. The Japanese jazz-fusion super gem is available now as a limited-edition transparent vinyl LP housed in a heavyweight sleeve with obi.
L'Empire Des Sons
An elusive cult gem resurfaces through Glossy Mistakes. Originally released in 1986, L'Empire Des Sons is an otherworldly blend of synth pop, folk experimentation, and cinematic percussive layers-dreamlike, poetic, and wildly ahead of its time. L'Empire Des Sons was a fleeting yet powerful transmission from the fringes of the French underground-an album that blurred genre lines and evaded easy classification. Fusing experimental folk, lo-fi synth pop, and avant-garde textures, the record exists …
Music for "Cyber Café"
In 1991, Yuji Takahashi and Mamoru Fujieda collaborated in staging a sound installation at the Sezon Museum of Art in Tokyo, making extensive use of the new artistic possibilities provided by the advent of personal computers. In this installation, a culmination of their investigations into the aesthetic use of new technology, these two renowned leaders of Japanese experimental music used sensors and transducers on objects and in the space itself, via MIDI conversion, to trigger pianos, synthesiz…
Anti-Matter Alma Mater
2025 stock Vinylization of the superb oddball cassette originally issued by the Potlatch, I Gather tape label in 2008. Ambergris is more or less the solo project of visual artist Matthew Thurber (1-800 MICE, etc.), although he is aided in this instance by Rebecca Bird. The suite of songs presented here is something like a theatrical recreation of one of Thurber's bizarre-world comics. Using voices, Casio, various Garage Band inventions and his own surreal imagination, Thurber takes us to a 10,00…
Mirage
2025 Stock. Limited to 500 copies, hand-numbered. Gatefold cover, textured sleeve + printed inner. This album comes with a bonus DVD featuring an audiovisual live performance at OUT OFF, Milan 1976. Milestone reissue! This work was realized in 1976; Cramps Records would have to publish it, but "Mirage" sank into the oblivion for 36 years. It's visionary as always; it has got a psychedelic attitude and an electronic expressive form. Thanks to its sensitiveness, its creativity, and its very good a…
Monochrome Electronic Music (Two pieces for Coupigny Synthesizer)
*100 copies limited edition* A « monochrome » approach to composition implies working within a restricted aural palette and, in this particular case, using fixed pitches. It focuses on developing interactions between these parallel elements in a time dominion. Establishing a dialogue devoid of structural repetitions and, most importantly, free from any hierarchy of notes. Such coexistence gives way to a particular environment of musical democracy where unevolving sounds lose their individual imp…
Extrapolation
“Extrapolation,” the debut solo album by visionary guitarist John McLaughlin, continues to stand as a landmark in the evolution of jazz fusion. Recorded in London before McLaughlin’s legendary collaborations with Miles Davis and the formation of the Mahavishnu Orchestra, this 1969 classic exemplifies a bold new direction for British jazz.
A pioneering force in modern music, McLaughlin brought together an extraordinary group of musicians for “Extrapolation”: John Surman (baritone and soprano saxo…
