* 2025 Stock *Time is a trickster on 5980 - Patto Generazionale, the latest offering from Sokushinbutsu Project. Massimo ODRZ Mascheroni and Enrico Ponzoni transmute the shimmer of late-’70s and early-’80s dance-floor forms into a suite of revisions, exquisite in their brevity and sly in their intent. Subtly retooling classic tunes like “Oh! Carol” and “Passion Flower,” the pair do not simply trade in retromania; they stage a negotiation with memory itself, unspooling Italo-gloss nostalgia as it…

With "Why I Went To The Woods", I retreated once again into my hauntological dream worlds. With the woods being the place one traditionally goes to clear one's head, I went there with these recordings to fortify myself with a deliberate rejection of the Now. Inspired equally by both the fictional filmed landscapes of psychedelic folk - the bucolic British countryside of the 1960s and 1970s which, though I've never witnessed in real life, still fill me with an inexplicable melancholic yearning to…

I started recording "Creature Comforts" with 'Allegiance' on the night of November 4th, as the election results were coming in. I found myself craving lullabies, but ugly and reflective ones, that saw the world with an acute sense of horror and bewilderment and bereavement. Lullabies that didn't protect me from these feelings - or rather did protect me, but did so through immersion. I finished recording on March 10th of 2025. Visual inspiration came from a series of mixed-media works by my gifte…

*100 copies limited edition* « In 2025, can we still be interested in and write about the music of a band of French musicians, very “underground” who were very young at the time in the early 1970s? » writes Xavier Béal at the opening of his review of Ian Thompson's brand new book "Synths, Sax & Situationists (The French Musical Underground 1968-1978)" in the webzine Rythmes Croisés (published on October 24, 2025). The answer is certainly yes! And although the name of Pascal Chassin is still almo…

*2025 stock* "Fero Király's How Much Can We Understand maps out some of the foggy territory where technological systems intersect with organic complexity. The album's two sidelong tracks were generated using “a cellular automaton with code 357”, a computational model where simple rules applied to a grid of cells produce intricate evolving patterns that echo the inexplicability of natural phenomena. The result is as much a feat of cold engineering as a tender ode to musical minimalism. On side on…

For reasons unknowable, certain places in certain eras become hotbeds of music, fertile in their growth and flowering of musical talent. Thailand in the 1970s was such a place, and Dao Bandon is one of the enduring greats of that era. Born in the farm country of the Isan region, Bandon came from a poor family and was a monk during his teens, two great influences which shaped him, with his farm roots grounding the earthy heart of his lyrics, and his years of monastic chanting lending a unique res…

The term “private” is used quite liberally in the promotion of rare groove compilations these days. The team at Tramp Records tends to be rather defensive when it comes to such terms. Although, and this should not be misunderstood as arrogance, label boss Tobias Kirmayer & his crew have been doing nothing else for 22 years, strictly speaking. Every compilation series from the Upper Bavarian label, be it the “Movements,” “Feeling Nice,” “Praise Poems,” or “Can You Feel It” series, specializes in …

When people think of Yacht Rock—those smooth, sun-drenched sounds that once drifted from Californian radio stations in the late ’70s and early ’80s—they rarely imagine it echoing through rehearsal rooms in Hamburg or Linz. Yet even far from the Pacific coastline, the appeal of shimmering chords, laid-back grooves, and polished production found fertile ground. This compilation gathers rare and overlooked tracks from Germany and Austria. These artists embraced West Coast aesthetics with sincerity …

"New York’s Salvatore Mercatante arrives on LOTO with a record that is more menacing whisper than blood-curdling scream. ‘Stega III: Dianus Of Doorways’ is the final part of his trilogy based on the Italian dreamwalking spirits, the Benandanti.
