Composed and recorded during tough times in 2025. Using compressed air, percussion instruments, piano and samples, Alessandro Brivio explores varied and extreme approaches to sound processing, diffusion, recording and re-composition, as a tribute to a lost friend.
On Diastima, Luigi Turra moves inside Sylvain Chauveau’s sparse graphic scores with a hyper‑reduced electroacoustic vocabulary, turning each page into a fragile interval of tension, suggestion and nearly vanishing sound.
On Nègre blanc, Jean-Louis Costes turns a label’s “make a jazz record” brief into a feral cut‑up: Quentin Rollet’s solo sax improvisations are diced, looped and smeared under Costes’ confrontational vocals, flipping free jazz into a trash‑opera about race, filth and French identity.
On Cosmos Nucleus, Carlos Garnett turns his cosmic post‑Coltrane fire into a large‑ensemble manifesto: six expansive tracks where Pharoah‑like spiritual cries, funk currents and celestial brass fanfares coalesce around the incandescent “Mystery Of Ages.”
Tip! ** Edition of 55, glass-mastered CD in handmade cover featuring a unique collage made by the artist, also includes a numbered insert and a poster - all copies are different. ** After years of activity under the pseudonym Petroglifi Solubili, Italian sound artist Loris Zecchin releases his first album under his own name - a natural evolution that coincides with some of his most accomplished and fully realised work to date. Constructed using his characteristic toolkit - contact microphones, a…
Tip! ** Edition of 100, glass-mastered CD, includes poster ** A new face from the furthest North-East of Italy, Trieste: the city of the "bora", a powerful and relentless wind that for many of its inhabitants represents a state of mind, more than a simple typical atmospheric event. Petroglifi Solubili is the project by Loris Zecchin (Solar Ipse fanzine), born in 2021 with a simple sampler (the legendary Roland SP-404) and gradually expanded with an equipment that includes a number of synths, gui…
On Irreparable Parables, Andrew Wasylyk invites a choir of kindred voices into his gently haunted sound world, turning his childhood‑warm, strings‑and‑Rhodes miniatures into a series of quietly radiant songs about fragility, hope and the stubborn endurance of feeling.
On their self‑titled debut, Kenako deliver a tightly wound set of organic funk and Afro‑soul instrumentals, where heavy drums, hot horns and deep, unhurried grooves feel cut for both dusty dancefloors.
On Foraging, The Blassics Experiment dig deeper into their analogue-funk soil, spinning nature-tuned grooves and mossy dub atmospheres into an eight-track crate of break-ready instrumentals that feel both forest-floor organic and dancefloor precise.
* Edition of 150 * A short blast and a fitting coda. Organum Electronics' Fiire is the first - and quite possibly the last - appearance of David Jackman's harsh electronic project on vinyl. Released on Die Stadt in a limited edition of 150 copies on black vinyl, it arrives as a companion piece to the Das Kreuz 7" released under Jackman's own name, the two singles together forming an epilogue to the monumental seven-album CD subscription series that unfolded on the label between 2023 and 2025.

* Edition of 150 * The other side of the coin. Where its companion single, Organum Electronics' Fiire, delivers compressed walls of metallic noise, David Jackman's Das Kreuz strips everything back to a handful of quiet, elemental sounds - and in doing so arrives at something close to the essence of his recent work under his own name.
Across the two tracks, the music unfolds with the stillness of an overheard moment: birdsong, the cry of crows, the strike of a distant bell, and behind it all, a r…
On On The Run, Shutaro Noguchi and The Roadhouse Band turn a cross‑continental goodbye into a subtly tripped‑out song cycle, folding Gong‑like cosmic drift, Sakamoto‑esque pop abstraction and Louisville bar‑band warmth into one gently disorienting farewell.
On Schematics For A Blank Stare Volume 4, Jeffery Scott Greer digs deeper into his cracked-beat, sample-scarred universe, sketching late-night instrumentals that flicker between head-nod hypnosis and uneasy, half-remembered dream logic.
On Mount Mansfield, Sam Boston and Shawn O’Sullivan turn a Vermont peak into both instrument and score, binding bent lapsteel and analog feedback into a slow‑growing, topographic drone where static contour becomes living, verdant resonance.
On Sumatra Method, Émile Zener (aka Gunnar Haslam) rebuilds 1950s–60s Indonesia as a haunted acoustic system, where Cold War proxy battles, propaganda and terror flicker through unstable drones, VHS detritus and spliced testimonies.
On Chandler and Dickow Play Fischer, David Chandler and Paul Dickow treat Marcus Fischer’s graphic scores as a lab problem rather than a script, using tracing paper, chalk, piezo styli, EEG data and a 1970s modular synth to probe what it means to “play” an image without simply projecting themselves onto it.
One of the most distinctive and influential instrumental ensembles of the 1980s, Steps Ahead injected urgently needed vitality into a stagnating fusion landscape with their own brand of intelligent, living jazz. With N.Y.C., their debut for Intuition, the group returned in an electrifying new incarnation and with a dynamically reimagined sound.
Co-founder Mike Mainieri assembled a constellation of seasoned virtuosos for this session: drummer Steve Smith (known for his work with Journey and his o…
Eddie Palmieri stands among the most influential pianists and arrangers in salsa and Latin jazz history. His singular voice fuses the rhythmic urgency of his Puerto Rican roots with the harmonic sophistication of jazz visionaries like Thelonious Monk, Herbie Hancock, and McCoy Tyner. Since founding La Perfecta in 1961 - a radical ensemble built on trombones rather than trumpets - Palmieri has consistently redefined the boundaries between jazz and Afro-Caribbean music.
Released in 1989 and produc…
Cucoma Combo are back with their impetuous and political sound, an urgent need to communicate in order to awaken consciences and react to the sick immobility of our times. Captain Marco Zanotti (Classica Orchestra Afrobeat/Lolo) once again gathers his pirate crew and sets sail for new Atlantic and Caribbean adventures. From Cape Verde to Salvador de Bahia, from Haiti to Colombia, then back to Tanzania and Zimbabwe. An inspired and furious attitude incorporates disparate rhythms, languages, and s…
On In Concerts, Mujician - Keith Tippett, Paul Dunmall, Paul Rogers and Tony Levin - are caught across 17 years of pure, pre‑verbal improvisation, four voices moving as one organism, forever searching and sometimes touching the truly uncanny.
