The Movers Brought Rainbows
Long-running Jersey outfit Human Adult Band come to us after dropping a sickening array of no-fi noise rock and damaged art punk tapes and records upon the public. And yet, The Movers Brought Rainbows is probably their most abstract and alien work to date. While the guitar/bass/drums/voice formation is still the genesis of these recordings, at its core feedback and reverb are the star players here. Source sessions recorded at various locations are unapologetically run through the ringer, subject…
Blue Piccolo
*2024 stock* A trumpeter who played in the Charles Mingus Group and other groups. This album is somewhat unique in the Whynot catalog, which is lined with works overflowing with blackness. The bop style is orthodox, but the one-horn style of playing original compositions is truly poignant. Cecil Mcbee and drummer Steve McCall join the band.
Obra Reunida
Selected works from a +30 year-old career as a Mexican pioneer and creator in electroacustic and experimental electronic music.
白い恋人たち = 13 Jours En France (Original Soundtrack Recording)
A masterpiece of film music following "A Man and A Woman" by the tag team of Claude Lelouch and Francis Ray. This is an artistic documentary film that only features footage of the Winter Olympics held in Grenoble, France, and Francis Ray's brilliant music. The performances by the actual star athletes of the time and the astonishing talent of Francis Ray, which can be described as a French soundtrack, make this a masterpiece. The theme song "White Lovers" was produced with Japanese lyrics and cov…
Walks
Opt for the path less trodden — allow yourself to stray from it, even — and you might find, buried in the bracken, deep in the trees, a shining modernist monolith. Liquid as a mirror, glinting in the leaf-broken sun, it lies in wait off the beaten tracks of North Yorkshire, South Wales, or the A508 out of Milton Keynes. Or perhaps it is all of these places simultaneously and none of them: an amalgam of the wayside walks of the British Isles, accessed only by the maps of the mind. Heeding the cal…

Two years later, in 1989, Hermoine Zittlau reappeared at the presentation of "Die Tödliche Doris …
Total Space
Although MPS was known for his studio and brilliant recording technique, Rolf Kühn decided not to record his albums in the studio in the Black Forest. At MPS, Rolf Kühn was allowed free rein to choose the team for the recordings and so he decided to get Wolfgang Hirschmann on board, one of the most interesting sound engineers in jazz at that time. Together with him and seven other musicians, “Total Space” was recorded in January 1975 in the Cornet Studios in the south of Cologne, Germany. Having…
Talk About It / Origin Story
The "Talk About It" / "Origin Story" EP features remixes from Concretism and Paul Cousins. It's a beautiful pressing which utilises Nick Taylor's CiS discobag design, last seen on CiS038/CiS039. Lone Bison's music is influenced by Krautrock, electronica, post-punk, soundtracks and post-rock. The remixes on this EP add a new dimension to these wonderful tracks. The vinyl is super-limited and super-collectible, pressed on a beautiful 180g pressing from our pressing plant in Belgium. Nick is also …
Random Architecture
A set of kinetic and sometimes meditative sound collages built from recordings shared between both artists, their first recording together. The element of chance was adapted into the editing process, resulting in vibrantly textured layers that interact with each other in unpredictable ways.
Non Living Nature: Compositions For Dictaphone
"In 2020, I bought a used Sanyo M-5799 dictaphone, from the internet. The dictaphone arrived with a mini cassette. When I played the tape, there was a recording from the previous owner. He was testing the recorder, to see if it was functional, but at some point he recorded the words "... Less to be, not to be". These "messege" from this old man standed to me like he wanted me to listen his advice or his existential fears"
This album is dedicated to this man, to the concept of "the end of humanit…
Gymnosphere: Song of the Rose
2024 Restock. Before New Age hit terra firma at the dawn of the 1980s, the classically-trained Bay Area composer Jordan De La Sierra's consciousness soared with cosmic concepts. With cues and lessons from the great minimalists La Monte Young, Terry Riley, Pandit Pran Nath, and help from the venerable public radio program Hearts of Space, De La Sierra embarked on journey in alternate tunings and resounding reverberations, transporting entranced listeners from the Golden Gates to the intergalactic…

Il Gatto (Colonna Sonora Originale Del Film)
“Il Gatto” (The Cat) is a 1977 film, a comedy often tinged with detective story elements that tells about two brothers, played by Ugo Tognazzi (Amedeo Pegoraro) and Mariangela Melato (Ofelia Pegoraro), who cynically do everything they can to get a building they own cleared of all its tenants in order to sell it for a profitable sum.
