Ornette!
Ornette Coleman, who died in June 2015 from cardiac arrest, must be counted as one of the most influential musicians in the jazz genre. His importance does not only lie in his ground-breaking recordings in the late Fifties and early Sixties, but lies more significantly in the educational effect of his work – in the fact that he always went beyond himself to the very end. Just a little more than a month after his ground-breaking release "Free Jazz", Coleman recorded the present album, in which he…
H.P. Lovecraft

Originally released in October 1967 by Philips Records, this cult classic returns to vinyl, restoring its haunting, eerie ambiance for a new generation of psych explorers.
Blending psychedelic and folk rock influences, H.P. Lovecraft draws direct inspiration from the cosmic horror tales of author H.P. Lovecraft—the band's namesake. The albu…
Resonant – Bodies, Songs, and Strings (Book)
Published on the occasion of the 2025 exhibition Corps à cordes: Vibrations and Resonances at the Musée d’Art et de Culture Soufis MTO in Chatou, curated by Elena Sorokina and Simona Dvorák, this book explores the resonances between Sufism and contemporary artistic practice. Taking the setâr - a key Sufi instrument - as a central metaphor, it reflects on the vibratory nature of emotion, healing, and transmission across human, ecological, and spiritual realms. Conceived as both an extension of th…
Listen Ship
Listen Ship is the latest masterpiece in the ever-expanding sound world of Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Henry Threadgill, whom The New York Review of Books recently described as “one of American music’s great Romantics and a lifelong seeker of the sublime.” The new work is a suite for six acoustic guitars – including individual stylists such as Bill Frisell, Miles Okazaki and Brandon Ross – and two pianos that utilize Threadgill’s unique intervallic syntax to illuminate his idiosyncratic visi…
In A Fugue State
*300 copies limited edition* 'In a fugue state’ finds pedal-steel guitar maestro Joe Harvey-Whyte collaborating with tape loop sound scientist Paul Cousins on a warped ambient excursion into the subconscious. Originally written and recorded in one night, the eight tracks of hypnotic electro-acoustic music explore the concept of memory and time. The duo study how we remember and misremember things; forming an imperfect reorganisation of time, events and emotional states. This album exists at a cr…

The release features the first legendary John Peel Session, produced by Dale Griffin and originally br…
Coincidentia Oppositorum
Is an open dialogue of polarity possible? A dialogue of human existence in the cosmos and in nature, set against the backdrop of contemporary technology? That the feeling of being torn or detached is permanently inscribed in human nature is a truism. Yet we don’t always recognize the nature of this detachment—sometimes it seems like a separation from something immense, completely different from what humanity itself is. From a certain perspective, one could say that the many myths, symbols, ritua…

Muriel Grossmann Plays The Music Of McCoy Tyner And Grateful Dead
At first glance, the idea that McCoy Tyner and the Grateful Dead might share musical DNA seems like a stretch. One built frameworks to support Coltrane’s spiritual flights—rewriting the jazz harmony playbook while turning chords into flexible architecture. The others were a San Francisco circus of psychedelic chaos and Americana grooves, an improvising rock band whose mythology often overshadowed their musicianship. On the surface, Tyner and the Dead appear to come from different galaxies. But l…

Drawing from ancient myths and the tactile magic of spinning records, f.a.r. transforms crackles, p…
Bees
*2025 stock. 60 copies limited edition* After a split cassette in 1997, «Bees» is in fact the first collaboration ever between the two historical Italian experimenters Deison and Devis G. Deison and Devis worked meticulously, but in an instictive and natural way to this project, inspired by the natural order of things, by bringing piece after piece sounds, texts and rhythms, gathering them together to build a complex structure, like bees do.
Sounds Heard from the Moon Part 2
** Hand numbered edition of 250 ** There is a profound resonance between the practices of Nam June Paik and Park Jiha - separated by generations yet united by a shared impulse to dissolve boundaries between Korean tradition and contemporary expression.

Both artists inhabit a liminal …
