A side project from North Sea Radio Orchestra members. A new duo with explosive creativity and an extraordinary musical level that explores the boundaries between Renaissance, classical, medieval, folk, and contemporary music. As usual for Craig Fortnam, best known as the mastermind behind the North Sea Radio Orchestra, and Laurent Valero, also a member of the ensemble on the occasion of the critically acclaimed tribute to the music of Robert Wyatt, Folly Bololey, issued by Dark Companion in 201…

This intimate trio is the perfect vehicle for songs composed by John Greaves in English and in French- poems by by Verlaine, Apollinaire and more set to music by John in a powerful and very personal style, far from the tradition of French “chansonniers” but just as endearing. Elegant music to match the exigencies of the lyrics. It consists of 15 tracks beautifully composed and arranged by John who articulates a piano that is sometimes melancholic and sometimes rock. His inimitable sense of poetr…

Squarepusher, presents Kammerkonzert, a riot of onyx-hard, hyperfast riffs, fiendish orchestral themes and handbrake turns through varieties of progressive, ambient, electronic and experimental music.

*200 copies limited edition* Deaf Star is a shoegaze / noise-pop / electronic project founded in San Francisco and now based in Barcelona, Spain. Rooted in melancholy-driven personal songwriting, the project drags those intimate impulses through blown-out textures, crude production, bass-heavy electronics, and walls of distortion, arriving at a sound that feels both fragile and annihilating. Drawing from the jet-engine narcotic haze of Astrobrite, damaged intimacy of Sebadoh, nocturnal drift of …

*200 copies limited edition* Heavy drone trio Petrozavodsk return with their vinyl debut, “Forest Fire”. The band deepens its ongoing collaboration with UK-based electronic producers, this time it’s Container, and Moa Pillar (who has mixed all of Petrozavodsk’s material to date). The LP is divided into 3 distinct movements: a relentless thrashing electroacoustic rave piece by Container, a dubbed-out drone-rock track, and a side-long drumless slow-motion guitar wash that nods to the genre’s touch…

*200 copies limited edition* "A Sorrow Unrequited is a short but gorgeous collaboration between Frizzell & Duque, comprised of five minimalist explorations of high-fidelity sound. Each piece begins with the statement of a simple melody, which repeats throughout as additional layers accumulate, slowly teasing out new melodies. Rather than linger in the imperfections of media, as so many artists who work with repetition tend to do, instead the duo pursue an attention to fidelity that forces them t…

Joyful rug-cutters and sweet soul-uplifters from the town of Morogoro, in early-1960s Tanzania: muziki wa dansi, inspired by Cuban 78s, and dance crazes like the twist and cha cha cha, but making them its own. Here is the cream of over a hundred recordings by Salum, mostly for Mzuri Records of Kenya; pretty much lost till now. In an old-school tip-on cover, with lyrics in Swahili and English on the inner sleeve. Lovely stuff.

*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition* "The resulting music is an unearthly ever-shifting roar, sometimes identifiable as the product of guitar and saxophone but just as often not. Obrazeena’s guitar frequently starts out as an almost country-tinged drone, not unlike Earth’s “Hex; Or Printing In The Infernal Method” before turning into a downtuned wall of thick, syrupy distortion you can almost touch. Ponomarev’s sax screeches and bellows, and his electronics create a dense pulse, with needle-…

*2026 stock* Deep within the heart of an ancient forest, The Wolf, The Jaguar, The Bull, The Bear, and The Raven resided. They were guardians of the woodland, protectors of balance and harmony. But one fateful night, a foreboding darkness seeped into their sacred realm, whispering tales of corruption that had plagued the planet beyond the trees. Driven by an unnerving curiosity, they made a pact to venture beyond the borders of their lush abodes and uncover the source of this malevolence. Togeth…

*2026 stock* Anton Ponomarev: saxophone, electronicsRyoko Ono: saxophone, mixing, mastering This record was originally released by Fort Evil Fruit (Ireland), July 15, 2022.

Two of the latest releases from Tochnit Aleph - Daniel Löwenbruck's project, for three decades one of the most radical and consistent spaces in the international experimental landscape, now operating from Denmark - that share a common obsession: sound as act, as summons, as a gesture that the recording does not archive but transforms. El Llamado (Der Aufruf) by Mario de Vega and A Profound Loss of Meaning by Alice Kemp are two works that inhabit the threshold between performance and record - and…

On El Llamado (Der Aufruf), Mario de Vega distils a performative piece for dispersed voices and whistles into a stark, fixed composition, turning a global collection of wind instruments and a single outdoor activation into a study of call, place, and the politics of listening.

On Smog, Piero Umiliani weaves Italian cinematic cool, West Coast jazz and vocal chiaroscuro into a quietly devastating portrait of early‑60s Los Angeles, with Chet Baker and Helen Merrill tracing the city’s alienated glamour in smoke.

On Tetragon, Joe Henderson sharpens his post‑bop language to a diamond point, driving a powerhouse band through knotty tunes and reworked standards that already hint at the spiritual depths he’d soon explore more fully.

LP. Limited edition. Black vinyl. RPG module booklet with map. The first HDK cassette sold two copies. Possibly three. Then, in the summer of 2017, something called Kobold knocked on the door of this Milanese DIY collective with The Cave of the Lost Talisman, and the whole thing changed. The tape had a concept: every track corresponded to a location on an actual dungeon map, the music scored a playable D&D adventure module, and the listener could follow plot and music simultaneously through the …

Dangerous, bizarre, but most of all cool, The Cramps one again prove themselves as leaders in skull-fracturing rock ʼnʼ roll, delving even deeper into a wicked netherworld where few have dared to tread. They are the architects of a sound that has spawned an entire subversive subculture. Originally released in 1997, Big Beat From Badsville is a haul-ass, careening monster of a record featuring more songs of mutilation, shape-shifting, psycho frenzies and she-devil-worship. The four rare bonus tra…

*300 copies limited edition* After their last album six years ago, "Primal Forms," the new album by Phantom Horse, finally arrives. The German duo of Ulf Schütte and Niklas Dommaschk have long established a reputation for expertly crafted, hypnotically slow-burning electronic music, and we do not hesitate to say that "Primal Forms" stands among the epitomes of their discography. The sequencing of "Primal Forms" cannot be underestimated. It is an album in the classic sense. It demands to be liste…

Laputa, a title taken from the fantastical floating island of Gulliver's Travels is aptly named as 'The album that never landed' for, apart from a limited touchdown in Japan, Laputa was never released. This mystical world is a summation of Yokota's journey so far, a complex and at times challenging work but immeasurably rewarding. Beguiling and bewitching in equal measure. Over fifteen undulating sonic fugue states, he guides listeners round a liminal world, made up of familiar materials but for…

*110 copies limited edition* This is the fourth studio album of Kryptogen Rundfunk and the first one since the project moved from Russia to the Netherlands. Six tracks full of weird trademark radio noises and interceptions, heavy bass drones and piercing high frequencies, abstract electronic signals and quirky samples. These layered compositions are slowly building up, creating thick mesmerizing walls of sound, yet at the same time leaving room for a bit of flippancy. An uneasy ride for a restle…

*200 copies limited edition* "If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets" - Haruki Murakami   Pro-dubbed cassette in an O-card with a soft-touch finish and an insert / download card.
