New Arrivals
Zerkelus
*125 copies limited edition* Richard Youngs is neither a stranger to Fourth Dimension Records or creating music from a disparate array of sources that then fall somewhere near that space where immersive drones converge with something altogether more frayed, ravaged or disquiet. 'Zerkelus', named after an imaginary Babylonian king, comprises two lengthy side-long parts, with the first being akin to something of an extended orchestral tune-up utilising voice, oboe and indiscernible sources to crea…
Mo.../(Roda De) Samba Maje
Following the cinematic jazz-funk of Ufo Bar (2021), Banda Maje are back, ready to take you on another sonic journey across Salifornia—and beyond. Their new 7” single, available starting May 30 via Four Flies, offers an exciting glimpse into the expanded horizons of Banda Maje, serving as a prelude to their sophomore album, Costa Sud.
These past four years, Peppe Maiellano—the band's composer and mastermind—has further refined his unique Mediterranean sound. A deep connection to Italian and Neap…
Terraform - I Knud Viktors Lydspor
*300 copies limited edition* Terraform - I Knud Viktors Lydspor was a residency program in conjunction with the exhibition and cultural program Put Your Ears to the Ground - Sound Painter Knud Viktor on Samsø.Knud Viktor grew up in Pillemark on Samsø island. He later moved to the South of France where he became a pioneer in field recording and acoustic ecology. In 2023, the art council of Samsø organized an exhibition and event series with a focus on Viktor, whose works were presented at a numbe…
Thousand Leaves
Despite a 40-year age gap and the vast distance between Japan and Greece, pianist Masahiko Sato and guitarist Giotis Damianidis reveal themselves as kindred spirits on Thousand Leaves. Capturing their very first meeting—recorded live on February 2, 2024, at Jazz Spot Candy in Chiba, Japan—this album is a testament to the power of improvised music to dissolve boundaries of geography and generation. The rapport between Sato and Damianidis is so immediate and intuitive that one might imagine a much…
Michael Pisaro-Liu - Tombstones II
After a first album made up of 11 pieces from Tombstones by Michael Pisaro-Liu — works with delicate tones and dusty melodies that wrap us in an intimate atmosphere — the musicians of the Muzzix collective, brought together under the direction of Barbara Dang, present this second recording, which completes the entire collection. This new opus continues the sonic exploration: timbres become more diverse, textures thicken, and silence — in its rawest materiality or its faintest breaths — becomes a…
2022-2023
*200 copies limited edition* K / S / R (the trio of Ben Kujawski, Abigail Smith, and Justin Rhody) play a unique form of delicate free-improvisation that blends deep listening, scree, and post-jazz sensibilities. As if Adris Hoyos & Tony Conrad created lounge music for Coast to Coast AM. Since 2022, the trio have also regularly performed works for expanded cinema in select locales across the US - with a prime example from an Oakland CA performance documented on this double disc set of essential …
Bruised Fruit & Underfed Flora
*2025 stock. 20 copies limited edition* Abstract sampler-based film score by Jeremy Kennedy, “blending electronics and vocals that really remind me what Gong were doing in 1972-73.” - Byron Coley
Blu-ray disc of accompanying film by Justin Rhody included.
Moral Grey
*2025 stock. 50 copies limited edition* Sleepwalker was a one-off quintet assembled August 2023 to perform at the regional premiere of a Pauline Oliveros documentary film. Inspired by Oliveros' teachings, these recordings were made in a former tank garage (a space that was once used to store military tanks). Galassini spread contact mics throughout the resonate flooring of the space in order to amplify movement and other frictions alongside our more traditional instrumentation - creating the bas…
Desert Crawl
*2025 stock. 100 copies limited edition* High Desert free-improv trio, K/S/R (Ben Kujawski, Abigail Smith, and Justin Rhody), provide an ultra-full-length album of studio sessions, private jams, and live expanded cinema recordings. A fittingly intense culmination of time spent, efforts made, emotional response, and intuitive composition. This is a music that's hated by the punks and the conservatory alike - executed in warehouses, microcinemas, and former cookie factories across the United State…
Music for Harry Smith
*2025 stock. 100 copies limited edition* Free-improv quintet recorded live in accompaniment to the early films of Harry Smith at No Name Cinema (an event organized in partnership with the Harry Smith Archives in celebration of Smith's centennial). Also featuring a 14 minute long remix by Cody Yantis (à la Jeph Jerman & Harry Partch daydreaming in the industrial sector).
Ambient Black Magic
*2025 stock* Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement is the ambient techno project of Dominick Fernow. Focusing on slow paced bass studies and synthetic dub textures, surrounded by collaged and looped field recording environments, RSE shrouds sound over image to target the sector of brain where fear supersedes rationality -- the imagination. As RSE appears live for the first time, it has transformed into an entity with rotating contributors on stage and on recording. Ambient Black Magic moves away from…
You Think You Really Know Me
2024 repress! Gary Wilson's monumental 1977 LP reissued with the original cover art (care of Owen Maercks's well-loved copy), delicately laid out by Scott Allison. Which makes it, perhaps, the last copy you'll ever need. You Think You Really Know Me (also the title of Michael Wolk's 2005 documentary about Wilson) was Wilson's second LP, but the first he recorded as a vocalist, hewing to his own bizarre vision -- a syncretic collision of romance, new wave cocktail jazz, heartbreak, disco porn-sou…
Adorable Ruin
2025 stock ‘Adorable Ruin’ is the second release of Stokholm-based composer and electronician Siri Jennefelt under her Nev Lilit moniker, and her first one to be released on vinyl. Each composition of the release starts with a drone that seems to be of a similar design, but brings us into vastly differing worlds. Jennefelt’s blend of large, primal drums and meticulously crafted synthesis, that moves independent of each other, makes a fitting canvas for her extensive arsenal of haunting, dystopi…
No Sound Forever
From the depths of Gothenburg, The Family Men emerge. Since 2017, they have slowly carved out a sound entirely their own within the current music scene, standing out as one of the hardest groups in Sweden today. Making use of unconventional sampling, chainsaw-guitars and gritty industrial tones, they manage to blast their way into yet uncharted musical territory. Their debut album 'No Sound Forever' is an explosive, daring and vital record of a band ready to swallow you whole.
La Cave Live, Cleveland 1966
the first authorized release by permission of the Estate of Albert Ayler of the two concerts played at La Cave, Cleveland on April 16 & 17, 1966. Remastered for best possible sound of these under difficult technical circumstances recorded performances.
Floater & Syndrome - The Upright Piano Sessions, Revisited
"It was once said of Paul Bley that he was the only pianist who could make a concert grand sound like an
upright. While that is not literally true, or only partly so, it makes a point that strikes home on these often
strange, offbeat, otherworldly tracks. It is a quality preserved by Michael Brändli’s typically sensitive sonic

restoration, which increases the probability of rapture. Enjoy." – Chris May
Free Jazz to Ornette „Revisited“
Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation is an album by the jazz saxophonist and composer Ornette Coleman. It was released through Atlantic Records in September 1961: the fourth of Coleman's six albums for the label. Its title named the then-nascent free jazz movement.
About Ornette! Brian Olewnick commented that Coleman is found "plumbing his quartet music to ever greater heights of richness and creativity," concluding that the album was "a superb release and a must for all fans of Coleman and cr…
Live Greenwich Village To Love Cry „Revisited“
"The two reissues presented herein include the last sessions that Donald would record with his brother, bookending a turning point in Ayler’s music. The Village Theater sessions, from late 1966 and early 1967 (the latter without Donald) mark, arguably, a high point in his work to that date, where the musical ecstasy he sought was as close to realization as he ever achieved – and new avenues may have been opening up – whereas ‘Love Cry’, from the summer of 1967, indicates at least partially a piv…
Three For Shepp to Gesprächsfetzen „Revisited“
"Marion Brown was already defying categorisation in 1966 when he recorded Three For Shepp, whose six tracks open Three For Shepp To Gespächsfetzen Revisited. Brown’s opening “New Blues” and Archie Shepp’s closing “Delicado,” though compelling,are relatively orthodox expressions of mid 1960s NewThing. The four tracks they bookend, however, are distinctive even today. Brown’s exquisite “Fortunato,” though it sounds like nothing Pharoah Sanders ever wrote, inhabits similarly pretty terrain as Sand…
Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus To Pre Bird „Revisited“
"Heard together, Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus and Pre Bird suggest the enormity of
Charles Mingus’ artistic vision. No one album encompasses it in its entirety, and perhaps not even
two or three. However, these recordings, made six months apart in 1960, vividly summarized his
work to date, as he headed towards to jazz’s pantheon." – Bill Shoemaker
