Nonagon Knivese
Digital noise by the the sweatest, high volume, voices of Japanese girls in the distance, Otaku's stories, obsessions manifested, a rabbit, the subway.
Poetic Infomercial Experimentalism
Poetic Infomercial Experimentalism is a musical piece, consisting of two parts, that arose after Tapage (Tijs Ham) and Espoir (Roald van Dillewijn) found that no one else had ever tried to write it before. Since they both had a strong feeling that the world would be better if this music is available for everyone, they agreed to come together in monthly sessions to start their creative work. In each session, they tried a different approach to making music which resulted in a lot of improvisation …
Ample Profanity
Edition of 300. Brilliant, mad intersection of No wave primitivism, cello sensitivities and possessed vox, the first proper collab between important lynchpins of the UK avant-classical nexus; Oliver Coates and Laurie Tompkins. If you're into anything from Mica Levi to Jandek, this ones for you... Very few fukcs are given by Coates & Tompkins on Ample Profanity; a let-it-all-out session of deviant, punkish avant-classical composition hallucinated and expectorated by two prodigious talents, releas…
Ignis
Edition of 500 copies. A stunning set of previously unheard posthumous recordings from Mika Vainio aided and abetted by Franck Vigroux. Haunting, cinematic, extreme electronic panoramas of the highest order… Mika Vainio and Franck Vigroux’s brutal yet filigree electronics come to light in ‘Ignis’, which finally discloses the further, etheric results of recording sessions that made up their ‘Peau Froide, Léger Soleil’ album in 2014, their celebrated previous collaboration for Cosmo Rhythmatic.Pos…
Ideal Acid
No hype, this record is the maddest belter you’ll hear this year. A rinse thru three hundred and three acid cherries pitted and sequenced, tweak for tweak, into the only rave weapon you’ll ever need. Taking Evol's obsession with Roland’s squelchy grey box to an ultimate, logical conclusion that leaves dancefloors turned utterly inside out and begging for track ID’s, it’s the kind of idea that has been floated in raves, smoking areas and afterparties for the past 20 years but has never been execu…
Dreaming Remembering
Ectoplasm Girl Nadine Byrne returns with her first solo album in 4 years, a woozy, unnerving and dreamlike soundworld somewhere betweenLaurie Anderson, James Ferraro and Ryan Trecartin. Huge recommendation... Ectoplasm Girls’ Nadine Byrne lures listeners into woozy mental states on Dreaming Remembering, her soundtrack to a short film of the same name, providing a solo follow-up to A Different Gesture: Collected Soundtracks 2011-2012, and her first outing since Ectoplasm Girls’ New Feeling Come […
Weightless
Hugely tipped debut LP from Jasss; a measured, rugged blend of industrial dub, African and dark jazz inspirations that comes highly recommended if you’re into more abstracted and experimental electronic/dancefloor excursions or the work of Christoph De Babalon, Toresch, Mecanica Popular, Throbbing Gristle etc. Very much an antecedent of Spanish industrialists such as Diseño Corbusier, Xeerox / Krishna Goineau, or Mecanica Popular/Randomize, Jasss firmly builds on that heritage with a uniquely pe…
Can I Change My Mind?
Exceptional, 15 minute long dancer from Beatrice Dillon, blessing the 12 x 12 series with a concatenated ‘nuum sidewinder Can I Change My Mind?, where the London-based artist nimbly finds the square roots of jungle, techno, noise and minimalist dance music firmly anchored in steppers’ dub and West African percussive tradition. If you’ve ever been snagged by Sotofett, DJ Krust or Shackleton’s devilish dubs, this one’s for you!Since first emerging with a highly regarded monthly NTS radio show, a r…

Riyl Elysia Crampton, Haruomi Hosono, Wendy Carlos, Oneohtrix Point Never… Four Pieces for Mirai is a stunning prelude to James Ferraro’s epic new work about civilisational decline, planned to span four releases this year.

Beach Jolanda
So Sweet! Edition of 400, with a full-colour sleeve and insert. It’s taken 14 years for these extravagant Icelandic artist troubadours to follow up their last (untitled) album. (At least they managed to give this one a name ; imagine what else they’d be capable of if we’ d waited another five years. ) Beach Jolanda transposes their classic calipso - beach - bar - laptop - organ g ibberish to the unmanned terrain of public lavatories in the dead of night. But i t wouldn’t be a party without guest…

La Macchina della violenza (The Big Game)
First 200 on Red Opaque Vinyl. 180 gram audiophile vinyl LP, with poster. Another master of the soundtrack is Francesco De Masi, that, through a long carrier, has moved between different genres, giving the soundtrack to spaghetti western movies (like Vado l’ammazzo e torno) comedies, and action movies like La Macchina della violenza, by Robert Day. A soundtrack that goes from tense and nervous songs, to soft ballads with female voice.
«Hold-Up» Istantanea Di Una Rapina
First 200 on Yellow Opaque Vinyl. 180 gram audiophile vinyl LP, with poster. When you think about italian crime movies, one of the first names to get to your mind is probably Franco Micalizzi, great minds behind terrific and unforgettable works like Napoli violenta and Italia a mano armata. Through all is carrier, nonetheless, there’s room also for some less known, but still mentionable works. One of them is Hold Up, made up of dizzying escapes, funky breakbeat and some less frantic episode.
Le Altre
**First 200 on Violet Vinyl. 180 gram audiophile vinyl LP** Easily comparable to the vaste number of movies from the erotic-dramatic genre popular between sixties and seventies, Alessandro Fallay’s Le Altre – a pretty much unknown director of Iranian origins – boasts an amazing soundtrack from the unforgettable Piero Piccioni, one of the acclaimed masters of the genre. The album moves between easy listening atmospheres to jazz and lounge, among Roma and Cinecittà’s summers parfumes. Everything t…

Controlled Death

The tracks on the records are based on obsessive and compulsive synth drones with voice, effects and tapes.

Without hesitation, the bodies are emptied, l…
For All The Fucked-Up Children Of This World We Give You
In 1984, Spacemen 3 made their first-ever recording session and sold a few cassettes at now-legendary, incendiary gigs. Growing out of the dual guitar attack of Jason Pierce and Pete Kember, the band's three-piece line up with Natty Brooker on drums offered a liturgical take on '60s psychedelia, bare-knuckle blues and stunning feedback.This early glimpse into the Spacemen 3 cosmos – crafted by and for all the fucked-up children of this world – captures the band's unorthodox approach to rock 'n' …
Shades of Grey
Pale Blue Sky is the new project from Mike Pollard (formerly Treetops). Shades Of Grey is the project’s genesis; a long considered transition uniting the organic drone-work of the former project with compositional structures. The recordings embody a delicate sense of distance; staring out at the moving landscape obscured by the mediation of the window. Through blurred fidelity the origin of melody is placed under microscopic inquiry; an exploration into the moment of tonal interaction. Pale Blu…
