Crumbling A Flower
*40 copies limited edition* "A moment spent with you watching your dress torn in two. Bits of my heart fall into the spring and die with the flowers that only bloom once a year".
Tantalus
*30 copies limited edition* Tantalus by Nathan Moody is an otherworldly journey of dark majesty and tragedy, told through an utterly unique sound palette: SOMA Lyra-8 synthesizer, transducers that vibrate cymbals, singing bowl, kemenche fiddle, violin, electric cello, Appalachian dulcimer, and wind instruments made of PVC pipe. Rhythms are revealed between the beating and modulation of oscillators, polyrhythmic extended techniques, and the scrappy repeats of noisy delay lines. Traditional wester…
Havuz I-II
*80 copies limited edition* Istanbul based audio/visual artist Koray Kantarcıoğlu releases his first tape output for Cloudchamber after 2016's Loopworks (Initially released as a tape from Wounded Wolf Press in 2016 and later issued as a vinyl from Discrepant Records). Havuz (means pool in Turkish) is a two part piece made up of seamlessly mixed loops. Like his previous work, Koray manipulates samples he dug from Turkish records and tapes to create otherworldy sound textures. This time instead of…
Yogi Jazz
*2023 repress* Tremendous early work from German saxophonist Joki Freund a player who would go onto much greater fame in the progressive years at the end of the 60s, but who already sounds plenty darn great on this early combo side from 1963! The style of the work is incredibly hip with a definite John Coltrane modal groove in place, but also a sense of globally conscious jazz that's very much in the spirit of classic Saba/MPS work, but which predates most of that by a number of years! Freund pl…
Voices
"Manfred Schoof grew up perfecting his innovative jazz style, often practicing on either his jazz trumpet or his flügelhorn. By the time he reached high school, Schoof was composing his own arrangements. In 1955, Schoof decided to purse a musical career, enrolling in the Music Academy (Musikakademie) at Kassel. After studying and performing there for three years, he moved to further his studies at the Cologne Musikhochschule. While there, Schoof took a jazz class by Kurt Edelhagen, a West German…
Tension
This rare 1963 recording showcases the incredible early work of German trombonist Albert Mangelsdorff and his quintet. Featuring Heinz Sauer on tenor saxophone, Gunter Kronberg on alto saxophone, Gunter Lenz on bass, and Ralf Hubner on drums, the ensemble creates a groundbreaking modernist groove comparable to the innovations of Ornette Coleman and Joe Harriott. The absence of piano and the three-horn frontline contribute to a bracing and powerful sound, striking a dynamic balance between freedo…
Now Jazz Ramwong
Eastern-infused outstanding album by German trombonist Albert Mangelsdorff – recording here in 1964, but sounding years ahead of his time, with an amazing a blend of jazz and Asian styles! The album's one of Mangelsdorff's best ever – a set of rhythmic tunes that seem clearly informed by the work of Ornette and Joe Harriott, but also based along eastern themes picked up by the group on a tour of the Orient – and performed by a sharp-edged quintet that includes Heinz Sauer on tenor and soprano sa…

A solemn "prayer" reminiscent of the eternal earth, a clear and psychedelic scent "dawn", a quie…
Squadra Antimafia (Performed by Girodivite)
In the immense Goblin discography, an enormous void has always been represented by the original motion picture soundtrack of Squadra Antimafia, a score which we have tried to find, since many years, but that is apparently lost. A 1978 movie full of absolute cult icons among which Tomas Milian, Bombolo, Enzo Cannavale, Eli Wallach, Massimo Vanni directed by Bruno Corbucci: to this incredible list of stars to add Goblin is exciting. So, a while ago, following the initiative of Fabio Capuzzo, veter…
Blastfighter
Sometimes some releases are born through a quick waltz step, some other, such as this one, even if waited since eons and requested by fans more than once, they get a laborious and long gestation. In Blastfighter’s case the long waiting is also due to the label and the artist need to dedicate the correct amount of energy to the relevant release, in order to obtain the best possible result. A score which is dear to Fabio Frizzi, with funky sounds infested with cool bursting electronics, typical of…
Mountains Of Night
*200 copies limited release* Jelodanti is happy to present Mountains Of Night, David Fenech’s third solo album, following Grand Huit (2000) and Polochon Battle (2007). Somewhere between musique concrète and pop, between sound poetry and industrial music, this new recording has been constructed as a musical piece that develops over time, forming a truly unique listening experience. Lasting 40 minutes, it is split into two movements, forming two well balanced sides on a vinyl record. Don’t miss it…
Sacro Bosco Mediazioni
*100 copies limited edition* Sacro Bosco Mediazioni is a five-pieces ensemble whose music defies easy categorization. Born through the mysterious hills of Bomarzo, where the whispers of the ancient Etruscan gods and goddesses can still be heard, their craft is marked by a singular blend of vocal images and improvised soundscapes that is playful, magical and profound. The group draws inspiration from a diverse array of sources, from ritualistic folk music to the 60's avant-garde, surrealistic poe…
Emerald Vision
Tip! *80 copies limited edition* Jacopo Buda is a trumpet player, composer and sound-artist, born in Rimini (IT). His research investigates the infinite possibilities given by the encounter between trumpet and electronics in a live improvisational context. Standing at the crossroads between glitchy noir-tinged jazz, kosmische music and and fourth-world psychedelia, "Emerald Vision" offers a plethora of slowly unfolding and gently shifting emotions: unbounded joy and luminous ecstasy weaved with …
NEY
*175 copies limited edition* NEY, a self-titled debut, is an unbridled exploration of a band’s beginning, a tapestry of intimate field recordings, deconstructed fragments and spontaneous encounters, pieced together in two long-form recordings. During the isolated years of the pandemic, Lisa Fabian, aka Mondlane on ‘The Blue Hour’, traced thoughts, sung melodies and fleeting sentiments into an archive of extemporary field recordings and scattered written notes. In dealing with the loss of a loved…
Ritual Sonoro Para Ruinas Circulares
*300 copies limited edition* Based on the rereading of the famous tale by Jorge Luis Borges “The Circular Ruins”, the Peruvian composer, percussionist and painter, Manongo Mujica, takes a new look at some of his great obsessions: the desert on the coast of Peru and the pre-Hispanic ceremonials found there. For years the impressions of these places have mobilized a very personal aesthetic, arising from understanding the desert as a space for inner listening, and the ceremonial centers or huacas, …
Estructura Propuesta Sonido: Piezas para instalaciones y composiciones con notas al azar (1972-2017)
*300 copies limited edition* This album compiles a series of sound pieces produced by the Peruvian artist Teresa Burga (Iquitos, 1933 – Lima, 2021) during the 1970s. It includes works created by the artist that were part of various artistic projects, mainly sound installations, as well as pieces commissioned to musicians and inspired by her work. This album thus embodies an approach to a sound universe that has accompanied Burga's very personal work, which has transcended the limits of the artis…
Worlding With Earth
The post-Anthropocene planet isn’t going to be one without humans. It’s going to be a planet where the interdependencies of nature and man are realigned, the lines between the organic and synthetic blur, and we ultimately become something more-than-human. The rich, mulchy sonic environments of Slowfoam’s Worlding without Earth are the optimistic soundtrack to this realignment, subsuming the human, natural, and synthetic into one shimmering whole. Coming together over the last three years, this l…
Eerie Breedings
*200 copies limited edition* Los Lichis (three Mexicans, one Frenchman), there is no servile lineage to deplore: we are not tied to anything really specific, preferring to emancipate ourselves from overly showy supervision in favor of a mysterious exoticism. So let's forget the Germans labeled "seventies", both Guru Guru and the first version of Amon Düül or Can, but also their spiritual heirs Cul de Sac, or those groups which, like them and in the manner of the No Neck Blues Band, have made inf…
Cotswold Stone
Mat Handley’s shimmeringly beautiful ‘Cotswold Stone’ is the debut long player from Mat's Pulselovers project, which was first released in 2019 and is driven by warm analogue sounds effortlessly conveying a feeling of being somewhere beautiful, out in the country.
Systeme
Finally the 5th album of the imaginary German quartet - as always via Denovali. Although the title "Systeme" suggests a perhaps rather distant-cool album, it is the most personal and concentrated soundtrack so far created by Thomas Bücker from Münster in his "E-Smog-Playground" studio. In 2008, the quartet still flirted with cyrillic-mysterious melancholy and red wine-swilling trakl melancholy. 15 years and four albums later, it seems almost cynical to simply continue at this point. Because: lat…
