The Composer Of Desafinado, Plays
Antonio Carlos Jobim’s first American album is a masterpiece of understated elegance, presenting a dozen songs that would become bossa nova standards. Despite claiming to be out of practice, Jobim’s sparse, single-hand piano style lets his flowing melodies shine. Claus Ogerman’s signature arrangements—airy flutes, brooding strings, and lush harmonies—enhance timeless gems like Desafinado, Corcovado, The Girl from Ipanema, and One Note Samba. A defining moment in bossa nova’s global ascent.
Federico Fellini's 8½
The complete original soundtrack to Federico Fellini’s iconic 8½ features music by the legendary Nino Rota.

Recognized by the New York Film Critics Circle as the best foreign language film, 8½ remains a cinematic masterpiece, complemented by Rota’s unforgettable score.
Maggot Brain #20 (Spring 2025)
"On the cover: Devo -- a comprehensive feature by Autin, TX-based music writer Joe Gross on why DEVO matters -- today more than ever, as cultural, political, and spiritual devolution seems to be the way of the world. The piece is perfectly illustrated with ephemera, buttons, t-shirts, and more. A conversation with Irvin Weathersby, Jr. by Sonya Lea on the occasion of the publication of his book In Open Contempt: Confronting White Supremacy in Art & Public Space. Sydney Salk talks to Horsegirl ab…
Flying Slippers
Steve Beresford, a central figure on the British and international music scene for over forty years, meets the Tilli/Tramontana duo. The friction between the British aplomb with the multifaceted Italic personality and the underlying love and seriousness towards music give us a trio full of verve, gimmicks, and profound lightness.
Colapesce
"Colapesce” is an album that delves into the dark and mysterious depths of the Sicilian legend, reinterpreting it through a contemporary and experimental lens. Colapesce, the legendary man-fish who sacrifices himself to support Sicily, becomes a symbol of resilience, metamorphosis, and sacrifice. The album blends elements of free jazz, musique concrète, electronic music, and radical improvisation to evoke an underwater journey into the unknown, amidst sound waves and unfathomable abysses.

An 424 (Expanded)
Trá Pháidín are an Irish nine piece collective from Conamara, Galway, a wild coastal region of West Ireland where Gaeilge (Irish-Gaelic) remains the first language in areas known as 'An Gaeltacht'.The group are currently lighting up Ireland's underground with their joyful noise, a unique and unpredictable blend of traditional Irish folk, post-rock, jazz, and Dadaist absurdity. The glorious album An 424 was mixed by John 'Spud' Murphy (Lankum, Black Midi, Goat Girl) and takes us on a psychogeogra…
Dame Café
“Dame café”, originally released on Discos Fuentes in 1965 to meet the tropical music demand of the time, features a mix of traditional rhythms like vallenato and cumbia, alongside more experimental beats. Los Gavilanes de la Costa, the band behind this album, had a brief existence but left a lasting impact, especially in Mexico's sonidero scene.
Over the years, pirate editions and elusive original copies have made it a highly sought-after collector’s item. The album’s lively sound, combining ac…

Albus
EXTNDDNTWRK is the enduring solo project of Andrew Fearn, who is more commonly recognised as one half of Sleaford Mods. While akin to his role in his main group with respect to primarily working with electronic sounds, samples and rhythms, EXTNDDNTWRK is a far more mannered affair whose approach is concerned with atmospherics, occasional tempered beats perfect for a late night drive along a deserted motorway, near-ambient swerves into neo-minimalism, crisp melodies and big grooves swollen with t…
Winter/Music for Zeitgeist Fighters
*300 copies limited edition* In 2021 US label Helen Scarsdale Agency released Kleistwahr's 'Winter' album on vinyl in an edition of 300 now more or less sold out, while 'Music for Zeitgeist Fighters' preceded it by a few years on Egypt's Nashazphone imprint also as an LP limited to 300 and equally hard to find these days.
Both albums are brought together on this limited edition 2CD release and feature, between them, five bonus tracks not previously made available elsewhere. Anybody paying enough…
La Venganza / Torta De Pan
Two awesome Latin jazz-funk gems for the dance floor, blazing with the rich brass section and percussion. Both songs are taken from mega-rare Venezuelan LPs released in 1976. Reissued on a 45 for the first time.
Meditations on Space, Volume One
*300 copies limited edition* Since their forming in 1999, Theme have released six albums and performed live sporadically in a variety of incarnations, even including Faust's Jean-herve Peron on bass at a number of shows many years ago.

The New Breed
Jeff Parker’s 2016 album The New Breed was a turning point for both Parker and International Anthem, changing the trajectory of his solo career as well as drawing an abundance of attention to our fresh imprint despite our then very limited catalog. Most importantly though, the album is the first to give voice to Parker’s wholly unique take on sample-based beat construction augmented by improvisation and live instrumentation (performed in this case by the high-level crew of Paul Bryan on bass, Jo…
Går I Kras
Går I Kras is the fourth album from the Gothenburg-trio Amateur Hour that consists of Hugo Randulv, Julia Bjernelind and Dan Johansson. While in many ways continuing where the massive Krökta Tankar Och Brända Vanor double left off in 2022, the new 11-song album is arguably the most accessible and refined recording yet from the group, with some of their strongest tracks to date. Still blending dreamy lo-fi pop music with electronics and crude sound collages, The Cannanes through a meatgrinder and…
Irreversible Entanglements
Irreversible Entanglements’s self-titled debut album was originally released in September 2017, and features the first music ever played together by the freshly assembled Philly/NY/DC-based quintet of poet Camae Ayewa (aka Moor Mother), bassist Luke Stewart, saxophonist Keir Neuringer, trumpeter Aquiles Navarro, and drummer Tcheser Holmes. The explosive collection of improvised free-jazz with spoken word accompaniment was born after the group's initial meeting at a Musicians Against Police Bruta…

Chamber Music for Lawn Mowers
*180 copies limited edition*
Did you know, a clean-cut lawn is a desire we inherited from the British? Yes, the British dumped this pleasure into our collective consciousness. Those humorless Victorians who enjoyed having their black pudding on the lawn. They came to this uninspired impression while mis-looking at Italian paintings. Yes indeed, while gazing at these paintings they mistook green lanes for green lawns. Thus it became hip. Every stuffed truffle commanded his gardener to cut the gra…
