First tape from Alvilda Reiter Jakobsen. Side a is a collage of guitar recordings made by Alvilda and a few other musicians. Side b is a live rendition for six guitarists. A very lovely tape which reminds about the joy of playing music together with others and let the music happen without too much interrogation.

* Edition of 400 copies * From the viscerally punishing and nerve wrecking, to the wistfully sublime, Kevin Drumm ‘s work often yield a ferocious intensity through the timbres of minute details. Now, throughout this series of archival works dating from 2000 to 2022, his mastery is once again on full display. On »Battering Rams«, sinister forces interlope with sanguine glimmers of respite and contemplation, while recurring drones ceaselessly crescendo to near paralysing effect, only for the album…

*300 copies limited edition* Rivet’s new album for Editions Mego is an uplifting and joyous affair coming in the wake of tragedy and disenchantment. It is yet another rebirth from an artist willing to take a step back and reprise the current situation he is in. Mika Hallbäck has a long credible history in the Swedish underground. First recognised for his industrial techno works under the Grovskopa moniker he worked privately on more experimental works that eventually came out as On Feather and W…

Latest recordings by Cluster Lizard – an interdisciplinary mixed media project by two Ukrainian artists Dmytro Fedorenko and Kateryna Zavoloka, based in Berlin. In previous centuries, Ukrainian warriors invented an audacious macabre ritual called Herts, a courageous death dance. Before the battle, a few ruthless Cossacks would leave their ranks to perform a mocking dance right in front of their enemy lines, laughing and shouting insulting indecencies at them. Herts, a mixture of laughter and dea…

Yearly compilation series Radar Keroxen return with its fifth volume of themed based albums showcasing the talents and misfortunes of carefully selected musical projects based or connected with the Canary Islands. With its first volume released in 2020 aiming to introduce and divulge adventurous Island based music, the Keroxen imprint now presents Vol. 5 with a collection of tracks born out of an in-situ collective performance at the Keroxen Festival iconic venue - a massive disused gasoline tan…

One of Carola Bauckholt's major talents is the gift of attentive and passionate listening. Through persistent research, she uncovers the hidden musical potential of ambient sounds such as the gurgling of a fountain, a grinding crank, birds, dogs, construction machinery or a babbling baby, which then become the core of entire works. These sounds need a mediator like Bauckholt who translates them, thinks them through musically, and places them into often surprising contexts. This album features th…

Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and EMI General Music, presents a remastered reissue of the ultimate edition of the obscure Ennio Morricone score for Cuore di Mamma, a dramatic, grotesque story directed by Salvatore Samperi in 1969. It is the story of Lorenza (Carla Gravina), a mother of three children who is unable to communicate. Her attitude is childish, impassive, conformist in form and substance. A mother with a heart of stone, she is harassed by political extremism from differen…

From Lawrence English: "I like to think that sound haunts architecture. It's one of the truly magical interactions afforded by sound's immateriality. It's also something that has captivated us from the earliest times. It's not difficult to imagine the exhilaration of our early ancestors calling to one another in the dark cathedral like caves which held wonder, and security, for them. Today the ways in which sound occupies space, the so-called liquid architecture, holds just as much wonder, albei…

The inspiration for these pieces comes from the Chinese folklore of Guanyin, a deity whose name translates to ‘the one who perceives all the sounds, or cries, of the world’. Also known as Guanshiyin 觀世音, she is the embodiment of infinite compassion. I grew up knowing of Guanyin as a female deity, but recently discovered that she had transformed through the centuries from the male Hindu bodhisattva, Avalokiteśvara. I instantly found an affinity for this gender-fluid figure, who was said to have a…

*150 copies limited edition* Tactile Interactions brings together textile artist Bec Kirby and sound artists Joda Foerster & Niklas Kramer for an exploration in tangibility and modularity across object and sound. The three artists were driven by a mutual intrigue as to how physicality transcends form, while form could be subtracted, manipulated, and synthesized into new manners all together. Bec crafted hand-tufted wall hangings in a variety of abstract shapes that can be hung in an endless arra…

*2025 stock* Clay Bodies is a multidimensional project stretching artistic language, form and workflow across digital and continental spheres. Baal & Mortimer, Cate Kennan, Cucina Povera, and Morita Vargas engaged in an intimate, collaborative process with Camila Apaez of Ila Ceramica. This resulted in four ceramic sculptures being conceptually soundtracked by five musical contributions recorded onto cassette. As vases howling, the meditative compositions drift between the ghostly and gentle, wi…

Haron’s Wandelaar is an album which successfully turns listening into an act of transport, leaving you in the midst of falling asleep, at a junction of dislocation, hazily arriving in a liminal world. Wandelaar is Haron’s reaction against the confines of dance music, gathering energy from his estrangement from its limitations and expectations, and using it as a means to reorder and interrogate sound. This release gestures a shift in Haron’s career, moving away from the dancefloor applicable outp…

*300 copies limited edition* Seeking collaboration in contrast, G, A & D is an artefact in time of two friends and artists challenging themselves to shed their primary artistic methods and embrace one another’s diverging approaches to sound. When asked to participate in a week-long residency in Ghent, Dutch artists Louis Reith and Eelco Topper, also known as Felbm, found themselves drawn to one another’s disparate styles as a means of stepping outside of their normal musical boundaries. Louis ha…

Throughout his life as an artist of increasing renown, William Parker has always made it a point to shine light on those who do not as often receive recognition for their work, and from whose work Parker has found resonance with & received inspiration from. There have always been song dedications and odes to their inspiration on his albums. And, on a larger scale, there are now four extant volumes of his indispensable 'Conversations' books which, through relaxed & in-depth interviews, allow the …

Solo instrumentalists navigate a free and rambling road through an imaginative, oneiric wilderness. So much expressed without singing/words, a direct power line to the psyche, open for interpretation and brimming with melancholy, joy, and somber reflection. The annals of solo guitar music, much like solo piano, can tap into these almost subliminal lines of communication. The new album/debut LP from Los Angeles by way of Ohio guitarist/flautist/songwriter Barry Archie Johnson sings out as a start…

Multi-talented Alex Figueira is back with a vibrant fusion of tropical rhythms layered with a dazzling array of synth driven psychedelia. A collaboration between Jazzaggression and Music With Soul’s Alex Figueira, Colliding Layers blends his raw tropical sound and psych touch with Pelto Studio’s distinct vibe—resulting in a dynamic, genre-defying library album.

There are surpri…

*Hand-numbered edition of 300. Digipak in resealable poly-bag* "Tenor saxophonist Gerrit Hatcher's latest solo recording – I believe it's his third solo document - is also the first title available from his new label, Kettle Hole. While he oversees a fairly prolific output, he's not into overkill. The CD's total time is under 30 minutes & it is limited to 300 numbered copies. Time is tight; copies are limited. Nothing is wasted. Economical and sharp." - The Free Jazz Collective

*Limited Edition Of 150 Copies* When it travels, the voice is a double agent, a trickster, or a dubious guru, but when it pauses for a recording, it's historical, capturing a mood or an emotion for all time. I didn't expect that I would hardly recognize the people who made Salt — myself and Hessel Veldman — a year and a half after recording it, but this is where I find myself now, so I'll say a few words about this temporary prosopagnosia. Twelve years ago, when I moved to the Netherlands from J…

Mother Mallard's Portable Masterpiece Company was the first all-synthesizer band to ever deliver live concerts. They were founded in the late sixties by David Borden, and they were the first to do so. They even predated giants such as Tangerine Dream with their live performances. Make Way For Mother Mallard: 50 Years Of Music is a double disk collection of wholly new music that was published to commemorate the band's fiftieth anniversary. The first disc of the compilation included previously unh…

Dutch artist Space Is Gre…

First vinyl release ever of the outstanding soundtrack for the 1999 Japanese action political thriller anime directed by Hiroyuki Okiura and written by Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell, Patlabor, Avalon...). From famed anime and tv score composer, cellist and arranger Hajime Mizoguchi. A dark, atmospheric, and immensely emotional soundscape that takes you on an epic and immersive journey and stays with you forever.

The music of Sylvano Bussotti seems to achieve the squaring of the circle: in many ways radical, avant-garde, and innovative, it manifests, at the same time, an idea of beauty, with a strong sensual as well as personal side, not easily reconciled with the avant-garde movements of the 20th century. This volume explores the work of the Italian composer from a multi-perspective and polyvalent approach, addressing cultural questions of identity and authorship, issues of gender and non-normative sexu…

In the fall of 1972 my brother Daryl Frazier [a/k/a Billy Nightshade] started school at Bemidji State College in northern Minnesota. I was 11 years old and Daryl was 18. Every weekend he would come home and bring me amazing used records of rock and roll bands. His good friend Gary Zerott from BSC knew music inside out, and turned Daryl on to all kinds of brilliant artists! Kinks, Bowie, Alice Cooper, Stooges, MC5, Patti Smith, Velvet Underground, Slade, Deep Purple...the heavier the better. Back…

*150 copies limited release* "Borrowed Out Of Time is the latest album by Kaurna Country artist and writer, Tristan Louth-Robins. It follows a steadily paced run of releases for labels like 3LEAVES (2013’s The Path Described) and his own Studio Maurilia which share an inquisitive spirit, informed by, but different from, influences such as Alvin Lucier and Rolf Julius. While Tristan’s compositions might be neatly situated somewhere adjacent to both sound art and acoustic ecology, they aren’t beho…

*150 copies limited release* “It's music where nothing happened. It's the kind of music somebody might write in Adelaide, Australia. Nothing happened.” - Morton Feldman Theatre is De la Catessen’s second venture into the archive of Jon Dale. Originally released in a tiny CDr edition of 50 copies on Tristes Tropiques in 2019, Theatre now reappeares in an edition of 150 glass-mastered CDs. Theatre sees Jon Dale eschewing the hearthwarm drones of his previous album on de la Catessen, Last Blues, an…

Dmitry Krylov is a musician and sound artist exploring the landscape between acoustics and electronics. His latest project, After All, is centred around the poetics of electronic music and offers a meditation on the end of times. The album's dramatic structure demonstrates a gradual transition from the spacious oscillations of bowed instruments to plasmatic noise rhythms, which dissolves in an area of uncertainty. A substantial proportion of the album is made up of smooth vibratory canvases crea…

This is the last of the A.B.O. material. Probably recorded in 1991, certainly mixed in 2024.

Reissue of the cursed Dustbreeders album “No Rain", old songs (1990 - 1997) recorded on 4 tracks, summer 97 (except 5). The most misleading title in the history of record titles, when you know where these people come from cassette format to keep up with the times artefact farewell to their no wave destruction derby period zombified rock, first platinum emotions, illicit mise en abyme saved from oblivion for the good of humanity by Tanzprocesz and Fougère.

Dive head first into a parallel universe where the facts of music history have been turned into pliable putty and an alternative world where Rod Temperton never met Quincy Jones, never joined Heatwave and never wrote songs for the greatest pop soul artists of the 70’s and 80’s BUT instead, hung out at a West Berlin commune with a cast of trans-continental musicians. It’s an off-kilter affair from side one with ‘Off The Wall’ swirling in a dense fog of phased bass guitar and emerging onto the sho…

Suspension Blues (2020) is a collaborative audio-visual work conceived as an immersive, droning strobosphere. It is a model for an activated environment with an amalgam of pulsating light and color, high-frequency drones, and shimmering glissandi. The aural and visual elements function in direct and intentional relation with one another and by the selfsame perceptual mechanism. A total sensory field saturation instigates retinal and cochlear hyperactivation; long durational attendance is rewarde…

Didier Rotella’s "Zone Grise" unfolds in a space of perpetual transformation, where sound navigates between density and purity, acoustic and electronic, structure and fluidity. Catharsis combines hybrid instruments and spatialized textures to evoke a dramatic journey of evolution and renewal, while Fragrances draws inspiration from perfume composition, blending musical elements into a rich, multi-layered tapestry. Mogari reflects on ritual and humanity through augmented instruments and poetic ge…
