Tatemono
*150 copies limited edition* Tomoyoshi Date and Stijn Hüwels met for the first time in 2015 in Tokyo, being introduced to each other by Chihei Hatakeyama.

Tomoyoshi Date creates acoustic and organic sounds with a little touch of digital processing. He began to create electronic music in 1998. In 2003, …

Clocking The Wheel
In June of 2013, a new label for improvised music was born. After years of working with other labels in the “business,” saxophonist and label founder Dave Rempis saw the writing on the wall that many of those outlets for underground music would soon go belly up. With shifting modes of consumption and distribution due to the wave of digital options drowning out traditional music media, it became clear that artists working outside of the mainstream would have to take over their own production and …
Fela Ransome Kuti and his Koola Lobitos
Before Afrobeat, there was Highlife-Jazz and Afro-Soul. Highlife music, originally from Ghana and widely popular across West Africa, dominated the music scene in Lagos when Fela Kuti returned to the newly independent Nigeria in 1963. Fela had been studying trumpet at Trinity College of Music in London where he met drummer Tony Allen, who also joined him in new group Koola Lobitos as they sought to mix things up by introducing the sounds they had heard in the capital's jazz clubs. The music of Fe…
Savana Selvaggia
Savana Selvaggia collects two previously unreleased tracks by Giuliano Sorgini, highlighting one of the most visionary and experimental aspects of his library music: from an imagined African landscape through atmospheric melodies and analogue electronics ("I misteri del mondo"), to a mystical sound world where African and Middle Eastern influences merge with futuristic electronic textures and Krautrock-inspired rhythms (“Arabian Synthesizer”).
Crafted in his own Cat & Fox Studio in Rome, these …
sequences from the fictive movie: mystery of ...
*25 copies limited edition* 10 sequences recorded, improvised late at night on the elka omb 5 (one man band 5), a rare Italian arranger keyboard/synth/drum thing that is total digital from 1985 consisting of couple of fm voices and pcm drums, except for the string sounds that go through an analog bbd chorus ensemble etc. A weird thing that gets hot and has a loud inbuilt fan to cool it off. The omb 5 gets mixed into the solton commander 4000s, a rare analog power mixer/tape delay/spring reverb c…
Pneuma
Double bassist and composer Henry Fraser announces the release of Pneuma, a new solo album out June 12 on Kou Records and recorded, mixed, and co-produced by Randall Dunn (Sunn O))), Jóhann Jóhannsson) and Ben Greenberg (Uniform, Marc Ribot). Across eight concise movements, Fraser explores breath, resonance, and the evolving relationship between composition and improvisation, shaping an intimate sonic landscape in which the double bass seems to inhale, bloom into overtones, and dissolve back int…
Clarity
To mark 50-years since a 22 year old Michael Gregory Jackson recorded his groundbreaking first release, "Clarity / Circle / Triangle / Square", recorded with the mind blowing group of his contemporaries Oliver Lake, David Murray and Leo Smith. This album is like no other I know, a new world, finding a perfect balance between multiple genres. Moved-By- Sound is very excited and honored to be involved in releasing the first reissue authorized by Michael Gregory Jackson since the original release i…
The Will Of Tongues
The most ambitious work of Sarah Davachi's career to date. Spanning more than two hours of music across three LPs, The Will of Tongues arrives on the composer's own Late Music imprint as a vast, deeply considered statement - a meditation on the act of listening itself, and on the mental spaces that sound, given duration and reduction, continually opens.
Over the last decade, Davachi has emerged as one of the most singular voices working at the intersection of minimalism, early music, and electro…
Know I’ve Been Here Before
*40 copies limited edition* »Know I've Been Here Before« by Dan Gilmore is a suite of eleven songs, based on reassembled and overdubbed audio files recorded between 2007 and 2010. What I hear in these recordings are not only various sound sources such as the guitar, the (self-built) synthesizer, or microphones, not only movements, rhythms, textures, or even harmonies, but also ideas, aspirations, circumstances, a mode of production. It is music that, through association and disassociation, makes…
Issue 138 (Magazine + 7", White)
The UK monthly Electronic Sound dedicates the cover of its 138th issue to Squarepusher, pairing an in-depth interview around the new album Kammerkonzert with an exclusive seven-inch, pressed on white vinyl and carrying two previously unreleased recordings drawn from Vaclament A, a series of sound experiments conducted by Tom Jenkinson in 2022. A limited magazine and vinyl bundle, gone once it's gone.
Parientes De La Vida
577 Records is proud to welcome the adventurous Japanese ensemble K Trio to the label's roster with their remarkable new album, Parientes De La Vida. K Trio reminds us what experimental music can be at its most vital: pure risk, pure discovery, pure adventure. On Parientes De La Vida, poetry and improvised sound meet in a work that continuously reshapes the listener's sense of space, language, and perception.
The album serves as an acoustic document in which poetry reading and spontaneous music…
Geometric Reason
On Geometric Reason, Sissy Spacek reroute their long‑running extremism into a jagged strain of musique concrète, splicing voice, electronics and acoustic shards into a volatile collage charged by fire‑displacement, Japanese connections and their enduring taste for rupture.
Io Pur Respiro
On Io Pur Respiro, pianist Elias Stemeseder and bassist Thomas Morgan sculpt a live duo language where Gesualdo, 1930s standards and original pieces blur into a quietly radiant continuum, guided by an unerring sense of melody, space and equilibrium.
Pyramid
Available for the first time since its original release in 1980, this is compelling, funky, exploratory jazz from Melbourne, Australia. The album opens with the floating Song For Bobby, a downtempo gem with the heartbeat aura of Herbie Hancock’s Butterfly; Orchestral Excerpts (From The Symphony Of Life), In The Basement and City Of Stone are high-grade fusion jams with one eye on Weather Report and Return to Forever, the other on the organic Australian sound of Alan Lee and John Sangster.
The al…
That Porous Line
On That Porous Line, Push For Night dwell in the blur between song and atmosphere, trading in smudged hooks, low-lit textures and slow, pulsing tension where guitars, electronics and voice seep into one another instead of standing apart.
Country / The Country
On Country / The Country, J.WLSN and Liam Keenan pare things back to the bone, using repetition, space and grain to sketch a faint, flickering idea of “country” where landscape, memory and rusted‑out song forms quietly bleed into one another.
Headwater
On Headwater, Helen Svoboda traces an intimate, slow‑moving current through bass, voice and carefully placed sound, letting murmured melodies, extended techniques and silence pool into an ecosystem where every ripple feels both fragile and tidal.
The Forgotten Generation / Dom Kallar Oss Mods
Rediscover a defining moment of Scandinavian underground rock with the vinyl reissue of Lea Riders Group's 1968 single 'The Forgotten Generation' b/w 'Dom Kallar Oss Mods' - a raw and uncompromising snapshot of youth culture at the edge. Emerging from Sweden's vibrant mid-60s scene, Lea Riders Group built their reputation on a fusion of British R&B, garage rock and proto-psychedelia.
La Onda De The Survival
The Mexican band The Survival created a blend of blues and acid rock influenced by the U.S. West Coast movement and British blues, captured on this 1971 album- the only one they recorded. They are often described as a combination of Country Joe and the Fish, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Moby Grape and Ten Years After. One of the rarest records ever released in Mexico, it stands as a significant testament to the 'onda chicana', a historical movement when Mexican youth took up instruments to exp…
