Double String Trios
John McGuire’s Double String Trios brings together three substantial works for paired string trios composed between 2012 and 2021 and conducted by Axel Lindner. The project originated when Walter Zimmermann invited Bernd Härpfer of Initiative Musik und Informatik Köln – GIMIK e.V. to arrange a concert premiere marking McGuire’s 80th birthday.
McGuire’s musical language was forged in the electronic studios of postwar Cologne, shaped by studies with Karlheinz Stockhausen and Krzysztof Penderecki, …

Luke Una Presents É Soul Cultura Vol.3
With two deeply cherished compilations already in the bag, Luke Una steps up for the third volume in his É Soul Cultura series on Mr Bongo. A love letter to the dancefloor and its power to unite people from all corners of society amid growing division and extremist politics. Genre-spanning in nature, the 17 tracks travel between cosmic soul, boogie, proto-house, slo-mo technoid grooves, drum machine afro, astral bass-bugging futurism, jazz funk, dance, and disco. Each having the ability to move …

This much-loved Latin workout has been rocking dancefloors for years with its infectious, driving energy and pulsating rhythms.

Sweet Sister Funk

The resulting album Sweet Sister Funk became a certified classic and a landmark showcase of the cherished ‘70s…

Touching Your Feelings (LP)
We are thrilled to announce the reissue of the most precious hidden gems of Soul Jazz / Spoken Word albums from a key era. Originally released in 1974 as a private pressing of fewer that 100 copies, Touching Your Feelings by Jim Marks is a crucial missing piece of the proto-rap era lying firmly between Gil Scott Heron and Amiri Baraka, with whom he made a strong friendship. Jym Marks' mix of deep, expressive poetry and solid jazz sits on the edge of works by The Last Poets and fellow west coast …
The Gaia II Space Corps
Motorpsycho has always been of the opinion that the most interesting stuff happens in any art form before it is formatted and settled. In rock music, this phenomenon peaked in and around 1970, and it is in this period that the best heavy music was made, simply because the rules weren’t set, there were not ropes yet, and there were no clichés to fall back on.
The Gaia ll Space Corps is an album of tunes that don’t quite sound like heavy metal or hard rock, but clearly is reaching for some of the …
kdi dctb 295 {e} — Le Libre
*170 copies limited edition* "It was looking at the map—in 2013—that led me to the Libre Valley. The name itself, "Le Libre" is rather unusual and certainly catches the eye. The map also reveals large, uninhabited areas far from transportation routes—particularly the entire area between St-Martin-des-Puits and Villerouge-Termenès—rocky, arid regions where the ruins of old sheepfolds can still be found, and even a chapel perched atop a hill.
I had just finished my work on the Taurion River — kdi…
Juho Toivonen / Civilistjavel!
Double feature stint on Kashual Plastik. Twofold recreational Nordic spice, cultivated for dreamy solitude escapades and meditative tune voyages in witchcraft mood. Side A comes from Finnish experimental musician Juho Toivonen, shaped in his home in the city of Pori. A veiled minimalistic dream of gentle noise loops and environmental sounds, meeting a desiring voice that echoes haunting, mantra-like lyrics. Ship horns and other slow mechanic found sounds convoy it into eternity, while we, the au…
LIve at Oblicuo #2
Live at Obliquo, recorded in october 2025. This performance by nara is neus has been taking listeners to their different but indeed so close intimate worlds. The tracks in this album are not so straight anti climax textures evolving into some kind of emotional noise that stays well beyond your spleen and ideal.
Sirene
„ behind horizons at the end of a breath why I love luna parks *_* „ Ben Kaczor debuts his first LP on St. Odes. Sirene showcases a more experimental and cinematic approach to sound. Tracks such as Amusement Impressions and Phantom Blues emerged from his fine art studies, while Sirene and Oval Waves reflect his work with the Buchla Easel. The artwork features a photograph by the artist himself, making the record one of his most personal works to date.
The Sound Leaves
"The Sound Leaves" began as an interactive sound performance and installation based around humans’ impact on the environment and how that impact is altering the sonic landscape of our world. As ecosystems change due to climate collapse, the sound of those ecosystems changes too. "The Sound Leaves" used an amplified collection of autumn leaves to encourage participants to listen closely to how their actions alter the sounds of the fallen leaves by walking on and through them for a period of time.…
Pendulum
A note from Carlos... "I initially recorded all tracks in California between 2024 and 2025. The tracks were then sent to various locations around the world to each collaborator for completion, before returning to me in California for final touches. They were subsequently sent to Japan for mixing. Then, back to California, and then to Australia, where the final designs for the artwork were created. The final version was then multiplied and spread all over the world until it reached your ears, the…
Notti Senza Fine
** 200 Copies. Includes printed inner sleeve with lyrics and credits. ** Cut it up. Stick it back together wrong. This is Magazzini Criminali at their most deliriously inventive - a Florence-based theater collective that understood William Burroughs's cut-up method as an operational principle for sound itself. Released in 1983, Notti Senza Fine is their second LP, a document where theater becomes indistinguishable from electronic collage, where the stage disappears into tape loops and reassemble…

Sound samples by Michelle Anelli (Double Bass on track 2),Mauro Sambo (Saxophone on track 4),Riccardo La Foresta (Drums on track 5).
