A collection of previously unreleased material (between '75 & '90) by Enno Velthuys.Compiled by Hessel Veldman.
Salos
Haunting Lithuanian folk songs and luminous choral frames, Merope’s Salos folds ancient melody into a modern hush. Centered on Indrė Jurgelevičiūtė’s lead voice and the Vilnius chamber choir, the suite drifts through seven pristine scenes folk, minim…
Routine
Copenhagen-based multi-instrumentalists Jason Dungan and Johan Carøe didn’t set out to make an album. Instead, as the title ‘Routine’ suggests, they found their way there through a process of habitual making and listening, developing an intuitive mus…
The Classic Sound of Miles Davis & Friends
Nicely assembled compilation with some early Miles plus specific collaboration with Sonny Rollins, Michel Legrand, Gil Evans & Cannonball Adderley
Our Broken Time Machine
Stern Records is proud to present Our Broken Time Machine, welcoming back Bug Bus Piano with their second full-length release on the label. As a freshly assembled puzzle swells, countless connections begin to bubble within the slowly buckling square.…
Live Critique of Judgement
Mitsuru Tabata began his musical career in 1982. Since then, he has played a key role in many of Japan’s most influential underground and experimental groups, including Noizunzuri, Boredoms, Leningrad Blues Machine, YBO2, Zeni Geva, Acid Mothers Temp…
Lummernikt
Lummer is the Swedish name for the now protected family of vascular plants (Clubmoss/Lycopodiaceae). Lummer grows slowly and the spores with which it reproduces can take 12—20 years to develop. These spores, known as Nikt in Swedish, were once ground…
Figuren
Radically exploratory, Raphael Loher’s Figuren is an album shaped by process and experimentation. Guided by intuition, listening, and a deliberate distancing from his primary instrument—the piano—, the LP marks a decisive step in the Swiss pianist an…
Sumerian Star Creatures
Created for the Centre for Fine Arts Brussels, "Sumerian Star Creatures" premiered in 2017 as a part of Spencer Clark (The Skaters / Monopoly Child Star Searchers / Pacific City Sound Visions) and Xavier Garcia Bardon's "Imagineers in the Underworld"…
The Transit Rider
Arriving right on time for its 20th anniversary, Faun Fables’ musical theatre work The Transit Rider returns in a lovely 2xLP vinyl edition that dimensionally burnishes the bristling performances and elevated chamber/cabaret folk sounds of the origin…
Hommage To Africa
** Deluxe matte laminate gatefold sleeve and polylined paper inner sleeve ** Paris, August 1969. Sunny Murray books a studio for a single afternoon and walks in with thirteen musicians - among them three members of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, the wo…
2-3-4
One of the great small-group dates in the Impulse! book, and a quietly perfect one. Cut February 5 and 8, 1962, produced by Bob Thiele, with an across-the-generations cast: drummer Manne steering with the lightest touch, the mighty Coleman Hawkins in…
Live at Low Four Studio, Manchester
Nat Birchall, saxophonist and composer, one of the most authentic voices in contemporary spiritual jazz, presents Path of Enlightenment, a sonic journey through rarely explored scales and modes, from Ethiopia to Byzantium, from ancient Egypt to South…
He's Coming
Released on Polydor in 1972, this is Roy Ayers hitting his stride. The Ubiquity sound has clicked into place: jazz improvisation, funk underneath, soul harmony, spiritual weight, all of it pulling in the same direction. The vibraphonist leans hard in…
The Artistry of Freddie Hubbard
Caught at the exact moment the young trumpeter steps fully into his own. Recorded July 2, 1962, at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, released in 1963 on Impulse!, this is Hubbard with technique to burn but warmth to match - every line sculpted, every phrase …
The Civil Surface
500 units, deluxe remastered edition. Some records are made in the present tense. The Civil Surface was made in the past perfect - a band returning from its own ending to commit to tape the music it had never quite managed to record. By the time thes…
Towers of Silence
On Towers Of Silence, Adult Fantasies’ Belgi‑dirge pop blooms anew: slow‑burn songs where Nico‑ish ennui, Coil‑like dread and late‑night guitars seep through perfectly sequenced, woozy mixes that feel like memories you’re sure you never lived.
Music Compilation: 12 Dances
On Music Compilation: 12 Dances, TRJJ turn disguised authorship into groove: twelve slow, zoned, sample‑rich “dances” that treat anonymity as a filter, stitching African and American folk, free improv and loner ambient into one beautifully crooked co…
Spoki
On Spoki, Ingus Bauskenieks cracks open his private sonic world: homemade electronics, odd pop instincts and spectral melodies that refuse consensus, turning “ghosts” into solitary songs built strictly on his own terms.
Nebular
Created by correspondence between Christchurch and London, Nebular pairs Roy Montgomery's decaying post-rock, folk and drone guitar with Martha Skye Murphy's wordless, glossolalic voice. Stems traded by email at nocturnal hours, raw emotion launched …
