Nos Vemos El Próximo Año
Hell is empty and the salsa is all there is. Chúpame el Dedo are back! After years of terrorizing the avant-tropical underground with their manic, mock-satanic metal-cumbia madness, the legendary Bogotano duo of Eblis Álvarez and Pedro Ojeda have off…
Interpreter
This is the sound of dream Texas, the cinematic Texas conjured in film and 20th century literary and art myth… big dark blueing horizons swallowing the infinite distance, a lonely poetry of sound, but also a stock taker of the iconoclastic, psychedel…
The System (OST)
"A quick scan of the world’s favourite crowdsourced discography reveals that Sonic Youth co-founder Lee Ranaldo was not a total stranger to crackling electric experimentation in the years following his songwriting turns of the 20-teens. Yet »The Syst…
Automatic

Beirut City Pop
Ten tracks from Lebanon's private press cassette scene of the late 1970s and 1980s, many tied to Ziad Rahbani's Bypass Studio circle: disco, soul, jazz, bossa and AOR, some tapes issued in tiny runs and some never released at all.
Aco Dei De Madrugada (One Morning I Waked Up Very Early)
Paris, 1969: Grachan Moncur III's second album for BYG, cut with a Brazilian rhythm section and bassist Beb Guerin. Samba sway meets American creative jazz, with Fernando Martins' wordless vocals on the title track.
Ascending the Depths
Ithaca trio of Sarah Hennies, Willie B. and Keir Neuringer, three percussionists reaching into vibraphone, saxophone and piano. Eight studio improvisations, playful and energetic, held against a meditative core.
Romance
The Portuguese percussionist turns drums and cymbals into generative sources: seven tracks of spectral tones, sub-bass rumble and warbly VHS tones, shaped by electronic manipulation and by the chromatic dissonance of Carlo Gesualdo.
Le Api dell’Invisibile

Occam XIII, Occam River XI, Occam V
Three late acoustic works from Éliane Radigue's Occam cycle, written with and performed by bassoonist Dafne Vicente-Sandoval and cellist Charles Curtis: solos and a duo built on minute shifts of tone and resonance.
Will to Love
Ylang Ylang’s Will to Love suggests both a challenge and a determination simultaneously. What does it actually take to love? Amidst the inherent contradictions of the self and the world around us, how do we come back to the foundation of love? The so…
Pianostops
"Limpe Fuchs at the piano. Playing for the moon, four drawings on the wall, one on the cover of the LP (RESLP022). A musical improvisation, a voyage, visions, meditation, presence and absence... the subtle art of a silent film pianist. Like Schirren …
