Icarus Tapes #1
*2025 stock* Icarus Records proudly presents Icarus Tapes #1: Bow, Icarus Live Session #59, a live performance recorded for the Icarus Radio Show, a weekly radioshow broadcast at Belgian radiostation Urgent.fm.
One afternoon in March 2019, a Ghent studio at the edge of an arm of the Scheldt river, the 5 musicians of Bow settled down and got ready. After a glance and a deep breath, the 5 fellows leap into the void.
Bow takes the gamble for this recorded radio session to improvise its music en…
Paris 1942
"Difficult as it may be to imagine, there was a time when Sun City Girls did not exist. Prior to the Bishop brothers teaming up with drummer/shaman Charlie Gocher to form SCG's classic trio lineup, there were various ad-hoc assemblages of local Phoenix-area freaks and weirdos – groups which existed only long enough to play a single gig, open mic or house party before disbanding without a trace. Hatched from this milieu was Paris 1942, a short-lived band formed by guitarist Jesse Srogoncik that i…
Eternity's Children
Originally released in 1968 on Capitol’s Tower Records sublabel during the vibrant heyday of the hippie revolution, Eternity's Children remains a luminous example of the era's musical innovation. Emerging amidst the psychedelic explosion, the band carved out a unique space with their blend of sunshine pop deeply infused with West Coast influences and folk revivalist sounds.
After extensive touring alongside notable acts like Strawberry Alarm Clock, the Seeds, and the Blues Magoos, Eternity's Chi…
Bedlam
The English blues revival played a crucial role in shaping a new generation of performers and spawning diverse sub-genres. Emerging from this movement, the hard rock revolution ignited with the powerful riffs of Cream and their contemporaries, paving the way for a fresh wave known as the “British invasion.”
Among the impactful yet brief contributors to this era was Bedlam, a four-piece band that released a single studio album in 1973. At the heart of the band was the formidable drummer Cozy Powe…
Just Gravity
Haeun Joo Unveils a Bold, Free-Spirited Debut on 577 Records with Just Gravity, Capturing the Immediacy of Improvisation and the Beauty of Intention.
Gagaku Suites
Tip! Gagaku is the oldest of the Japanese performing arts, with a history more than a thousand years old. The term refers to Japanese classical music and dance, traditionally performed by families of musicians linked to the ancient Imperial court, and later passed down in Buddhist temple ceremonies and Shinto shrines. Shiba Sukeyasu, founder and director of the Reigakusha ensemble, descends from the Koma clan, whose origins date back to the end of the 10th century.
The recordings partly reflect …
De Salla Jaktmarkerna
300 copies only! De Sälla Jaktmarkerna brings together Sewer Election and Ån for a collaborative work recorded during 2024 in Kortedala, on the outskirts of Gothenburg. The album represents a meeting point between two distinct voices in the Gothenburg experimental scene. Dan Johansson (Sewer Election) has spent recent years exploring increasingly nuanced territories in synthesized sound. Here, he collaborates with Matz Engdahl (Ån), a late bloomer in the milieu around Longest Night whose acclai…
Via Lattea
Via Lattea is the new recording project of the music and performance research ensemble Enten Hitti. The work takes inspiration from research on the “feminine” and from the matrilineal transmission of life. It is the result of various research trips to the places where the culture of the “sacred female” took shape over 4000 years ago: Cyprus, Crete, Turkey, Ireland, South Africa, Indonesia … The historical and geographical suggestions have been freely reinterpreted and transformed into musical pi…
Sùrtum
Massimo Silverio is one of the most distinctive names in the new Italian music scene, carving out a niche within the independent landscape with his unconventional idea of songwriting — influenced by the folklore of Carnia, electronic textures, and a highly personal approach to songwriting.
Surtùm arrives two years after Hrudja (2023), the album that established Silverio as one of the most intriguing emerging artists in Italy, blending the metalinguistic folklore of Sigur Rós, the gothic arrangem…
Sounds Of The Wetlands
*300 copies limited edition* This album is the result of a collaboration between composers and sound artists based in Valdivia, Chile, and London, UK. It was inspired by the long-running SoundLapse project at the Universidad Austral de Chile, where recordings of the wetlands around Valdivia were used within various ecological, educational, and creative projects. Composers and artists from both cities met to discuss the SoundLapse project, and discussed ways in which we might collaborate. Recordi…
Dreamlab
Temporary reduced price. LP version. The second album from Berlin-based electronic group Mythos, originally released in 1975, represents a crucial bridge between the cosmic folk of their debut and the full-blown Berlin school sound that would dominate the second half of the decade. Mastermind Stephan Kaske guided the band into deeper electronic territories here, crafting sound cascades and sequencer patterns that align them with the visionary work of Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel on the same…
Cosmic Century
Temporary reduced price. The third album from Wallenstein, originally released in 1973, stands as the band's definitive statement and one of the peak achievements of the entire Kosmische Musik movement. Led by keyboardist Jürgen Dollase and guitarist Bill Barone, the group had evolved from their earlier heavy progressive sound into something far more expansive and cosmic in scope.
Cosmic Century is exactly what its title promises - a journey through infinite space rendered in swirling synthesize…
st
Instrumental Smoothie. What is Grid? is: sax, bass, drums. Recorded @ boto's Farm by Alberto "Boto" Dutto on August 2024.
Bells, Boots And Shambles
Bells, Boots and Shambles by Spirogyra channels existential uncertainty, merging folk roots with progressive and classical flourishes. Anchored by delicate instrumentation and the crystalline voice of Gaskin, the album remains a deeply emotive exploration of loss, hope, and ambiguity, earning its reputation as a pivotal yet underappreciated work in progressive folk history.
J’Accuse... Amore Mio
J’Accuse... Amore Mio marks a pivotal moment in the career of Faust’O, standing as a radical and ambitious album within the Italian new wave scene. The work delves into urban alienation and existential discomfort through avant-garde sounds, nihilistic lyrics, and an intense metropolitan atmosphere. Its experimental approach and emotive currents secure its place as a distinctive and influential release in Italian pop-rock history.
Catherine Spaak
Catherine Spaak's self-titled 1963 debut album encapsulates the elegant melodic pop style of early 1960s Italy, extending Spaak’s cinematic charisma into the recording studio. Produced with the collaboration of top talents and distributed internationally, the album showcases her gentle vocal approach over finely arranged tracks, balancing French chanson influences with distinctly Italian songwriting. This release reflects Spaak’s position as a cross-cultural muse and a vital pop presence in the …
Tender Revolutions
Expansive and ambitious, Tender Revolutions is the latest from Vietnam-born, Portland-based multimedia artist Dao Strom. A fluid album, existing between genres—part ambient folk, part sound collage, part spoken word, part post rock—it blurs the line between the work of an experimental composer and the work of an accomplished singer-songwriter. Instruments slip in and out (guitar, piano, synthesizer, strings, drums, percussion) amid field recordings and samples, all anchored by Strom’s singular v…

The Boston Tea Party Live Set from July 1969 Released in Two Brand New Volumes
Emo Inhaler
Roman Hiele (1991) is a Brussels-based musician and composer whose work explores the boundaries between improvisation and electronic composition. His music unfolds as a living system of shifting harmonies, fractured rhythms, and unexpected turns. At the core of Hiele’s practice lies a deep fascination for contrast, where his soundscapes act as both anchor and disruption, sharpening the emotional depth of images and spaces, a sensibility that extends into his collaborations with filmmakers, visua…
