Zither Suite
3d and final repress. In the intimate confines of a Kortedala apartment just outside Gothenburg, Gustav Horneij has quietly assembled one of 2024's most compelling statements in spiritual jazz composition. Organic Pulse Ensemble's fifth album, Zither Suite, represents the culmination of a decade-long creative process that transforms modal meditation and ancient Swedish melodies into transcendent chamber folk with deep connections to the spiritual jazz tradition pioneered by Pharoah Sanders and h…
Oganesson Remixes
The Oganesson Remixes EP follows the March 2025 release of the “Oganesson” digital single, which was the first new music released by Tortoise since 2016. The EP includes the original version of “Oganesson” alongside five new remixes of the track created by collaborators and friends of the band, including poet and activist Saul Williams, prolific mastering engineer Heba Kadry, Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney, indie music icons Broken Social Scene, and International Anthem labelmate Makaya McCra…
La Tua Amica Più Cara / Corteggiamento Lento
We’ve fallen in love here at Four Flies. His name is Lumiero, he hails from Milan and writes songs that feel like postcards from a '60s dream, while still firmly rooted in today’s world. His vinyl debut, the 7-inch La Tua Amica Più Cara / Corteggiamento Lento, is infused with calypso, exotica, and refined orchestrations that flirt with jazz and the most elegant Italian songwriting. Produced and arranged by Marquis, whose sound evokes imaginary cocktails and summer melancholies, these two songs a…
Wheat Fields of Kleylehof
"Offend these people....".....said Franz West to Marco at an opening at a blue chip gallery while shoving a stack of Euros into his hand. Marco worked for him for a time when he moved to Vienna from Oakland. West & Eneidi were a great match in many ways. The world is a worse place without their dark, mischievous & hilarious viewpoints. They had a similar over the top, over-achieving approach to their work.
My first real improvised music concert was a trio with Marco and Gino Robair. I went in ri…
Third Ear Band
For many bands, having all their gear stolen would be catastrophic. For Third Ear Band, this unfortunate 1968 incident opened a portal to beneficial change that would ultimately define one of British experimental music's most singular statements. Now, Antarctica Starts Here presents the first-time vinyl reissue of the group's self-titled 1970 sophomore album - often called Elements due to its elemental track titles - complete with new liner notes by Dave Segal that illuminate this remarkable cha…
The Grave and Beautiful Name of Sadness
ICR is happy to release the CD version of the recent LP by Nurse With Wound. Comes in a digipack with an extra panel of artwork & an additional track, 'Blind', a reworking from 'Homotopy To Marie'.
Featuring two archive mixes of the original 1984 recording. A 2007 epic variation recorded for possible inclusion in Peter Strickland's film 'Katalin Varga' and a unique 'psychedelic' version from 2012 which until now has never been heard.
Thank You, Guitar
In the ongoing battle between technical virtuosity and authentic expression, most guitar "shredders" have chosen the wrong side - trafficking in overwrought drama while remaining devoid of soul, viewing music as competitive sport rather than spiritual exploration. Enter Cyrus Pireh, whose latest Palilalia release Thank You, Guitar represents nothing less than a revolutionary approach to "transcendental shred electric guitar music" that upcycles the despised 32nd-note neck sprint into something g…

Die Kabine
In physical terms, Die Kabine (the cabin) is a hundred-year-old wardrobe. It is the resonant space of this album. Resulting from the opposing desires to hide myself and, on the other hand, to show myself, since April 2023 I have been taking my place with the wardrobe in cultural spaces in an ongoing series of performances, using the tools of my voice, a drill and instruments to create rhythms and feedbacks. On the one hand, the drill destroys the dark security of the wardrobe's interior with bac…
Destino Scifosi
Power trio brought together by Yann Gourdon on hurdy gurdy, Jérémie Sauvage on bass and Mathieu Tilly on drums, France take drone and minimalism at their most ecstatic and massive
Leave Another Day
2025 Repress. In the ever-expanding universe of ambient and minimal electronic music archaeology, certain discoveries feel more significant than others - those rare moments when a previously overlooked recording emerges to fill gaps we didn't even know existed in our understanding of the genre's evolution. Stroom's reissue of Milan W's Leave Another Day represents precisely such a revelation, offering contemporary listeners access to a work that exemplifies the sophisticated minimalism that flou…
Mirror Repair
2025 Repress. Three decades after its initial release, Gastr del Sol's Mirror Repair remains one of the most perfectly realized statements in the post-rock canon - a five-track EP that captured the crystalline moment when experimental precision met emotional immediacy. Now, Drag City presents a 2025 repress of this essential 1994 release, offering contemporary listeners the opportunity to experience the album that defined the creative partnership between David Grubbs and Jim O'Rourke at its most…

Water
Coherent States is excited to announce the release of "Water", a new cassette by the media artist Anna Schimkat. Drawing upon her background in sculpture and music, Schimkat's practice investigates the intersection of sound and spatial perception through immersive installations and performances. Highlighting themes of fluidity and interconnectedness, her work examines natural, social, and cultural phenomena, often within site-specific contexts. "Water", conceived during her residency at Salzamt …
Baboon and Chest
From the frayed edges of sounds that once hummed and the lingering ghost of forgotten amplifier feedback & the unanswered answering machine message echo, Glands of External Secretion return with their most different album until the next one. "Baboon and Chest" is a four-pronged stumble through the usual-yet-unusual and weird-yet-no-weird delightful auditory wreckage. This "collection" stitches together echoes across time, from 1987 to 2025 and from San Francisco and Long Beach then to Edinburgh …
Cosmic Clarinets
Clarinetist Michele Marelli channels Stockhausen’s visionary spirit in this album of works for clarinet, basset horn, and bass clarinet—joined by pianist Gianluca Cascioli in Tierkreis—merging cosmic intensity with masterful interpretation and devotion.
