*110 copies limited edition* "For this new record I've been inspired by some of the most breathtaking landscapes in Spain. These are 11 tracks where, like musical postcards, I've tried to reflect the beauty of the Irati Forest in Navarra, the Flysh of Zumaia in Gipuzkoa, the Albufera of Valencia, the Gorafe desert in Granada or the Somiedo natural park in Asturias, among other amazing places." - David Cordero

Back in print ! First released in 1963 on Phillips Records, this was Jorge Ben's debut album. "Samba Esquema Novo", which translates to 'New Style Samba' deliberately sets a new standard in Brazilian music. A beautiful, fresh and vital combination of Ben's percussive guitar and smooth/rough voice backed by Big Band style horns, percussion (the great Dom Um Romao) and strings. In 2007, it was listed by Rolling Stone Brazil as one of the 100 best Brazilian albums in history, but It would be enough…

*2025 stock* After a long break Wozzeck returns to Intonema with an album called Fact I that opens the next chapter in the group's history. Ilia Belorukov, Mikhail Ershov and Konstantin Samolovov celebrated a decade of the band last year and wrote a piece with the materials collected over several years, transformed them and placed them into a new context. This resulted in a 37-minute composition of math rock, noise, musique concrete and field recordings with a wide dynamic range and sounds throu…

In a collaboration lasting several days in Novi Sad, Belorukov & Zlanabitnig explored the acoustic and electronic sound combinations of their instruments as well as ambiental sounds and field recordings in the immediate surroundings of the city. This was not just a direct musical collaboration. Ilia and Sara integrated their sounds into the spaces in which they were played in, be it the studio_kuda.org, the museum acoustics or the Peace Chapel. The musicians developed different approaches throug…

Tip! *2025 stock* "On Ganglions, Badrutt sculpts sinusoidal sounds, internal and external feedback as well as voice inputs and other sources into two pieces of otherworldly music. The release takes the listener into the realm of an arthropod central nervous system and its nerve cells processing tactile and visual information (Supraesophageal). The B-Side – Suboesophageal – showcases a more primitive, destructive approach that could well be aligned with a nerve cluster that processes environmenta…

The trio Gaudenz Badrutt (electronics), Jean-Luc Guionnet (alto saxophone) and Frantz Loriot (viola) met for the first time at the Biel/Bienne-based “Joyful Noise” encounters in December 2018. Very quickly, the three agreed on a formal and sonic understanding, giving the trio a distinctive sound, combining and interweaving different sonic aesthetics, from electroacoustic to acoustic improvised music. In February 2020, the trio continued its musical journey for a residency at Instants Chavirés i…

*2025 stock* In 2013, the collaboration of electronic musician Gaudenz Badrutt and saxophonist Ilia Belorukov began in a trio with accordionist Jonas Kocher, and in 2014 the album Rotonda was released on Intonema. Since then, time has passed, Badrutt and Belorukov have toured also as a duo, Belorukov later switching to a modular synthesizer. In March 2019 in Biel/Bienne, the duo fruitfully worked in a new context, looking for fresh ways to interact, not only with each other, but also between ele…

Ambient explorers SWIMS unpeel another heady debut, with the maiden effort by Korean artist Soo Kyung Kim, also known as soo:k. The curtain raises on Orchadia with an elysian glow: electro-acoustic compositions painting a golden topography of impossible fruit and uncanny astronomy. soo:k's utopic brushwork finds obvious comparisons in the work of Hiroshi Yoshimura, and his meditations on the glacial pace of hidden, verdant spaces. Frida Kahlo's portraits of everyday life, intertwined with pain a…

In our digital age, every Captcha solved reduces our existence to data points. Every click fuels a shadow economy, stripping away genuine connection and trapping us in endless metrics. We must reclaim authentic human experience.

Following Dirk Serries’ recent albums the composer continues to explore different sonic terrain. Still on the electric guitar with a motherboard of analog pedals, the 4 tracks on Zonal Disturbances II start to give signs of a new signature style of ambience Dirk is constructing. Organic, brooding and eerie. All recorded live on the spot creating music that still showcases the artist’s fondness for minimalism and slow repetitive clusters of sound while tying connections with his roots in industri…

*OBS!!! book in Italian language* In questo approfondito lavoro, l’Autore, da lungo tempo attivo sulla scena della ricerca musicale, ripercorre gli sviluppi delle sperimentazioni fonografiche e l’esperienza dei “padri fondatori” della Musica Concreta e della Musica Elettronica – da Pierre Schaeffer e Pierre Henry a Karlheinz Stockhausen e Iannis Xenakis – fino alle tendenze attuali, per la definizione di una nuova arte sonora: l’Acusmatica.

Sediment is an assemblage of field recordings made in the Swiss canton of Jura on a single day in August 2022. Jura's rock and limestone formations create a complex topology which hosts a diversity of sound spaces; human, more-than-human, geophonic, subterranean and extra-terrestrial. By walking and driving through this landscape curious pockets of activity are revealed to the listener. The layers of strata that make up Jura; earth, rock, forest, cables, pipes, factories, planes and radio towers…

*200 copies limited edition* Francisco Meirino's The Mute Fortress plays with the time and space of its sound materials. 
He expands, unfolds and unwinds the ghostly voices that circulate in a jigsaw puzzle of sequences that the mind assembles as it sees fit.

*100 copies limited edition* Quality label Raw Tonk Records never shies away from a challenge and this release is no exception.  A gathering of three wilful musical characters in the beautiful resonance of the Oude Klooster chapel in Brecht (Belgium). Guitarists Luis Lopes (Portugal) and Dirk Serries (Belgium) and pianist Martina Verhoeven (Belgium), this time on the electric piano, creating a nightmare-ish live soundtrack to a fictional David Cronenberg movie.  From a calm jazzy opener to dense…

The complete 3CD World In Your Eyes set, originally released in 2009, and out of print for over 12-13 years. 3 CDS containing all the all the band's 12-inches and compilation tracks in chronological order, with some demo tracks along the way, featuring tracks from the very first Loop demo, "16 Dreams" single, "Spinning", "Collision", "Black Sun" and "Arclite" as well as the Nick Drake tribute on Imaginary, the Neil Young tribute Comp on No. 6 Records, the "promo" Live 12", and even the Godflesh …

*150 copies limited edition* Drawing on decades of musical studies (Indian classical music, archaic Appalachian fiddle music, Microtonality, and early electronic experimentation), David Wunder Brägger has woven together a minimalist and analog-driven “séance” of sounds through his uniquely assembled electronic devices and acoustic drone makers. The results are epic, strange, calming, and wondrous. An immersive and stunningly beautiful cosmic bath of sound, DW Bragger’s “The Saraswati Dreamcraft”…

2025 Repress Every song on this album taps into raw, rich veins of sound that are simultaneously dense but easy to enjoy; vintage and modern; new yet timeless. The album kicks off with a monster track entitled "Stratton-Eustis" - one of those complex yet flowing tunes that makes you think overdubs were involved or the player has grown an extra set of limbs. Then there's "Kenduskeag,” a raga-esque group recording in an abandoned New England Conservatory building with Ethan WL and the long standin…

There is something intensely alluring, almost addictive, about Kansas City-based artist Jackie Myers. Known for her innovation and fluidity on the keys and her sultry, bluesy vocals that could spark warmth in even the iciest of souls, she has a way of leaving all your flabbers ghasted and with a voracious appetite for more. Now, 577 Records is ecstatic to present her latest work of art, What About the Butterfly, a technical masterpiece born from the depths of this vocalist/pianist/composer’s bea…

An experimental dive into aquatic and industrial rhythms, this is the original soundscape to the highly-successful, immersive installation "It's Always Ourselves We Find In The Sea" (premiere at The Saatchi Gallery) composed for 3D ambisonic sound by: Martyn Ware (Heaven 17, B.e.f., Ex-the Human League), Charles Stooke, and Gabriel Ware. Produced by Illustrious (Martyn Ware and Vince Clark of Erasure), with environmental and immersive design by Oscar Blustin and Anna Söderblom, the installation …

*30 copies limited edition* This double disc project originated with Evan’s recordings, which comprise the first disc. Evan’s original recordings June 26, and June 27 were made at home in one take, an improvisation with feedback, instruments, and interior environment. The following disc “Ponder with Strong Hands” and “Silo No Jazz” include Evan’s original recordings re-amplified by John Collins McCormick. "In service to the microphone in the room and the simultaneous ability to forget about the …

This recording was made June 3, 2023 near Kingston New York while standing in the Stony Kill. In part one, John and Evan improvise with and against each other and nature. The raging water is a dynamic barrier at once the audible center and distracting noise. Part two showcases audio’s ability to fool the senses, by slowing the playback speed we can challenge the figure/ground relationship. "If there is a need for constant sound I like a creek. They are reliable, if rain-dependent. Of making soun…

The International Archives of Popular Music (AIMP), affiliated with the Ethnographic Museum of Geneva (MEG), is a label and collection dedicated to the preservation of world music. Founded in 1944 by musicologist Constantin Brăiloiu, it gathers over 18,000 recordings, from wax cylinders to digital formats. AIMP releases albums and collaborates with artists such as Midori Takada, exploring the connections between sound archives and contemporary creation. Through these projects, the label preserve…

*300 copies limited edition* Flying between virtuosic formalism and freewheeling openness, Andrew Bernstein’s new album Shadows and Windy Places is a gripping picture of the Germany-based saxophonist right now. Capturing recordings across the last five years and disparate sources — some are previous album sessions, others peak into Bernstein’s daily practice — they all fall perfectly into place to form an album as rich as a self-portrait and as spontaneous as a snapshot. “I often feel the pull t…

*200 copies limited edition* "On the new album 7 Runs (In Arc Mental Styling), Max Eilbacher juggles a series of electronic tones, carefully sculpted and spaced to form what the Berlin-based composer describes as “a structural mirage made from constant movement.” Following a conceptual compositional algorithm, Eilbacher’s effervescent, repetitive digitally constructed electronic tones seem to endlessly rise across two side-long climbs that bend and twist like a barber pole. It’s a quality extenu…

*100 copies limited edition* New solo album from Per Gisle Galåen. Crazy River And Piano! consists of nine piano-based songs in a melodic and dark landscape of experimental pop/rock, lo-fi and singer-songwriter elements. The album alternates from being dark, cloudy, playful and cheerful, and is characterized by minimalist piano playing and wind-skewed instruments. Changing cloud cover. André Borgen has mixed and produced, and also contributes to the album. Per Gisle Galåen has for several years …

Felipe Lara’s Chamber Works for Strings redefines the ensemble as a resonating body, where strings become vocal cords and bows breathe sound into existence. In Corde Vocale and Tran(slate), the quartet is not a polite conversation but a raw, elemental force – organic, urgent, and monstrous. Sonare unfolds in processional waves, while Archi elastici stretches time to its breaking point, embodying breath itself. With Postcard and Prisma, Lara explores dialogue and divergence. Across these works, t…

Artist, composer and producer James William Blades’ score Pare De Sufrir will be released via AD 93 on the 4th of October. Pare De Sufrir (translating to ‘End of Suffering’) is the official soundtrack to A.G Rojas’ film of the same title. Spanish-born, Southern California-raised filmmaker AG Rojas is known for creating videos and working with the likes of Jamie xx, Gil Scott-Heron, Kamasi Washington, Spiritualized and Mitski. Rojas’ sensitive eye and subjectivity has brought him from the world o…

Honey for the Ants completes an ‘alchemical trilogy’, after The Funnel and Syphon. These albums are informed by mystical and gnostic texts, celebrating the weird, unhinged and occasionally beautiful. In this forthcoming album the tonalities have shifted from mediaeval and renaissance to modernist dissonances. New singers and instrumentalists contribute to an emotional and textural richness achieved in a collaborative process. Distant musical periods, real and fictitious, are nonchalantly interwo…

Danish composer and multiinstrumentalist Anders Lauge Meldgaard and the innovative string trio Halvcirkel are thrilled to announce the release of their collaborative album, Spirit. This extraordinary fusion of acoustic and electronic sounds will be available on March 20th, 2025, on vinyl and digital platforms through the Copenhagen-based experimental label År & Dag. Spirit invites the listener to experience an intricate interplay, where melodic lines and creative textures from the string players…

2025 stock In 2020, a live recording was made at Moldejazz by the piano trio Kongle Trio. A live recording where the listener gets the feeling of sitting in the hall as an audience and witnessing three people who really ooze music. "Live at Moldejazz" is proof of why this band, in a very short time, captured the hearts of large parts of the Nordic jazz scene, and we at Øra love it! Kongle Trio is the result of three people who were in the right place at the right time. Their meeting at Norway's …

40th anniversary vinyl edition of a classic Norwegian album. Originally released on their own label in 1985, "Songs" was soon picked up by Virgin UK and released in a slightly different edition the following year. A new track was included and guitar was added to three of the original tracks, all produced by Dave Allen (Depeche Mode, The Cure)."Songs" is their third album and was a big step forward with focus on more catchy and structured songs, notably driven by acoustic piano and programmed dru…

2025 stock Recorded during a show at the Storyville jazz club in Molde in May 2012, this could very well be their finest recorded effort during their ten years of Bushman's Revenge as a band. Bringing new meaning to the concept of loose but tight, they blend the freedom of jazz with the energy of rock in the most convincing ways as they race through numbers from all their previous four Rune Grammofon albums, taking no prisoners along the ride. On top of everything it´s also really well recorded …

2025 stock It's no secret that we have a soft spot for this fabulous group and would wish nothing less than world domination for them. With one leg in heavy rock and one in jazz, what they do seems to be almost a lost art when it comes to making records. Basically meaning great musicians playing together in a proper recording studio, interacting and playing off each other. The tracks are mostly first or second takes, there is no editing and just a couple of overdubs on the whole album. And while…

2025 stock Formed in 2003, the Oslo based trio are upfront about their love for the progressive rock of Cream and Jimi Hendrix, the galactic jazz of Sun Ra, Ornette Coleman, Sonny Sharrock and Alice Coltrane, plus the raw power of Black Sabbath and The Pixies. «Thou Shalt Boogie!» is their sixth album on Rune Grammofon and has a velvety, warm sound that was captured at Athletic Sound in Halden, Norway, a legendary old school studio with a 30-year history. Superbly paced, and poised in the indefi…

Limited to 500 copies, hand-numbered. Gatefold cover, textured sleeve + printed inner. Red Vinyl. 1973 Aktuala debut, a stunning overall work where you can hear a lot of different musical influences : avant-garde folk, mediterranean blues ,jazz improvisation, minimalism, african percussions, indian ragas all played with a true psychedelic feeling. The album was recorded in a few days in a totally acoustic dimension and the line-up seems to be a quintet of contemporary music more than a progrock …

2025 Stock. Limited to 500 copies, hand-numbered. Gatefold cover, textured sleeve + printed inner. This double live album perhaps embraces the most creative period of our psychedelic 'messenger'; Claudio Rocchi is the author who gave a strong contribution to the Italian underground musical scene. The tracks are from 1972 to 1975, and eight of them are completely unpublished. Listening to the double live album, you can smell the scent, and you can see the colours and the atmosphere of the magic a…

2025 stock With “Your Bliss My Joy” - Sex Magick Wizard’s debut for Rune Grammofon - this young quartet take a big step forward from their promising first album, “Eroto Comatose Lucidity”, released in 2019 on the small Finito Bakalao label. Since then Ingvald André Vassbø (Kanaan) has taken over the drum duties from Axel Skalstad (Krokofant) and forms an explosive and fine-drawn rhythm section with bass player Henrik Sandstad Dalen. Saxophonist Sigrid Aftret has been making waves on Oslo’s ferti…

2025 stock Welcome to your next jazz favourite, Skurkar. This is the young, fearless and exploratory all-Scandinavian quartet consisting of baritone saxophonist Jenny (no), alto saxophonist Amalie (dk), double bassist Oda (no) and drummer Emma (se). In addition to being an interesting line-up, they also put the somewhat unexplored genre of “detective jazz” on the map. The band was formed in the autumn of 2018 at the prestigious Jazzlinja in Trondheim, and has since made its mark at the Copenhage…

Offering some of her first original compositions, ‘The Time Has Come’ was a break from tradition in more ways than one for Anne Briggs. Where previous recordings displayed the unaccompanied melodies of her voice, this album - originally released by CBS in 1971 - brings additional instrumentation in the form of guitar and bouzouki. The result is that her vocals are not submerged but heightened - the plucked strings providing the perfect foil for her crystalline inflection.   ‘The Time Has Come’ i…
