Streams
Teranga Beat proudly presents the drummer-composer Yannis Angelopoulos, aka Jan Van and his last project "Streams". A well known musician in the Athens jazz scene, accompanied by three fellow musicians, he created an album with a tough background story. Jan Van started as a drummer in clubs playing popular greek music (laïka) even before he was 18, a typical first step for a musician in Greece. In this way he experienced the underground and in fact the surrealistic atmosphere of the laïka greek …

Holy Fools - Music of Luke Altmann
** 2021 Stock. Comes in a six panel case with 16 page booklet, designed by Sam Songailo ** One-composer records have somehow slipped out of fashion, but the chance to delve more deeply into the psyche of a single composer is a special indulgence for both performer and listener. Luke Altmann's music first graced our music stands in 2007, when we performed the slow and achingly beautiful ‘Prelude to New York’ at Manchester Lane in Melbourne. The piece’s honest conviction, simplicity and deep expre…
Music for Strings
** 2021 Stock ** The present recording traces the development of Harrison’s creativity over a half century – from 1948 to his last large-scale composition (1997). The Suite No. 2 for Strings was written while Lou Harrison lived in New York. Having spent his formative years in San Francisco, Harrison had a great deal of trouble adjusting to East Coast big-city life. A nervous breakdown required him to be hospitalized for about nine months. The Suite No. 2 dates from the year after this traumatic …
Dancing With Henry
** 2021 Stock ** Some of the most revered compositions of the twentieth century arose from the collaboration of composers and choreographers. Henry Cowell sought solutions that would treat both art forms with equal respect.

Atlantis was envisione…

Mios
In 1989, pianist and composer Yumiko Morioka put together a group of diverse street musicians and semi-professional players for a project that would come to be called the Synergetic Voice Orchestra. Inspired by Yumiko’s love of different musical cultures from around the globe, the band drew on influences from India, Ethiopia, Mali, Korea and China to create an album that merged these sonic identities with more traditional sounds from the southern Japanese city of Okinawa.
Having released her sol…
Eighteen Movements
‘Eighteen Movements’ is a collection of recordings captured at live performances between 2017 – 2019, now brought to vinyl for the first time. On a meditative outing of rich textures, ambient soundscapes, tribal rhythms, field recordings, and ritualistic atmospheres, Parisian artist D.K. is engaged in full flight mode, illustrating the project’s aptitude for deep transcendence.

Avuls
** 2021 Stock ** Longstanding collaborators & Bay Area based experimental duo Kush Arora & Lucas Patzek aka Only Now & Orogen return with ‘Avuls’, the project’s sophomore release. Building on the unearthly, black hole transmissions and creaking, exospheric ambience of their self-titled debut, Only Now & Orogen present an abyssal, elemental broadcast from another unchartered extra-terrestrial zone. Remote and astronomical yet tied to a newfound sense of rhythmic structure, ‘Alvus’ navigates a cou…
Alpha Centauri
* Coloured Vinyl 180gr HQ. In process of stocking* Second studio album by the infuential music band Tangerine Dream, Alpha Centauri' is the milestone of the psychedelic era. Originally recorded in 1970 at Stommeln's sound-lab Studio Dierks and released via the Ralf-Ulrich Kaiser's Ohr imprint, this album is an extraordinary trip into a dark sonic universe, where the overall quality has little in common with the luminescence recalled by its title. Organ acoustics and fute lean on mesmerising text…
Ash
Originally released as a 12" in 1988 fir Minotauro, "Ash" acted as a watershed between the transitional record "Opera 4th" (Minotauro, 1987) and "Life and Death". In a few words, in this mini-Lp markedly rock stylistic elements coexist with other more experimental ones, joined together without smearing, making the record unitary and not dispersive. "Eternal Flame" and "Electroshock" are exemplary of Paul Chain's idea of speed-metal. The psychotic "Electroshock", in particular, is quite original …
Detaching From Satan Remastered
** 2021 Stock. With 2 Bonus Tracks - Pentagon Society and Vivid Eyes In The Dark ** The spirit of Paul Chain's music is definitely identifiable to anyone who is immersed in the mysticism of Pentagram, Trouble, Sleep and others of the emerging scene of the early to mid 80s, but where usually a few little nuances make these acts distinct, PC has staked out territory all his own with an extremely exaggerated variant of the sub-genre that has lost none of its mystique in the passing decades. 2017 Re…
Poison Is (Not) The Word
The third entry in the 12"/MLP subs series. In early September 2011, Theme, the Poland/UK-based group centered around Lumberton Trading Company's very own Richard Johnson (ex-Splintered, Husk, etc.) and Stuart Carter (ex-Splintered, The Fields Of Hay, ex-Heroin, etc.), went into a Budapest studio with their good friends Zsolt Sörés and Jean-Hervé Péron (aka Art-Errorist of influential German group, Faust) for two whole days. The main piece, entitled "Poison Is (Not) The Word," pays witness to Th…
Kakuan Suite
LP version. "Every now and then I meet a bull who announces itself with its horns ('Le Corna'). But it doesn't scare me, it moves and dances, it runs away. Archery ('Tiro') is its favourite ('Rito') hobby, and my bull likes tea. It always eats round roti ('Chapati') together with its bull ('tori') friends who all have bristling hair like hedgehogs and succulent plants. My bull keeps different things in the vegetable gardens ('Orti') and in the wineskins ('Otri'). Then there is the tail ('la coda…
A Night In Tunisia
Remastered, Mono, 180 gram. Released in the late fifties, A Night In Tunisia is a Jazz milestone and prime example of Blakey's exceptional rhythmic prowess. This album is not all about drumming though; it leaves much space for great melodical interplay by fellow musicians Sam Dockery on piano, John Griffin and Ferris Benda on saxophone, Bill Hardman on trumpet and Jimmy De Brest on double bass.
Art Blakey is one of the inventors of the modern bebop style of drumming. Known as a powerful musician…
