Upcoming releases
Drawings, Collages, Paintings (Book, Softcover)
Drawings, Collages, Paintings reveals Adam Bohman as a visual artist every bit as singular as his music, collecting five decades of creatures, cowboys, food‑packet detritus and biro‑scrawled ephemera into a thick, disarming portrait of an English visionary working at the kitchen‑table edge of art history.
Or Gare: funeral procession music from Ryfylke, Norway
On Or Gare, Stine Janvin and Morten Joh slow time to a funereal crawl, reanimating Ryfylke’s “liksong” tradition as a ghost‑lit microtonal ritual where voices, synths and creaking percussion hover between lament, liturgy and quietly glowing electronics.
Music For Pulse Meridian Foliation
On Music for Pulse Meridian Foliation, Joshua Abrams translates Lisa Alvarado’s immersive installation into gently spiralling sound: two violas, harmonium and electronics tracing slow, minimal arcs that feel like geology moving through the body, memory folding and unfolding in real time.
Music for Intersecting Planes
On Music for Intersecting Planes, Kali Malone and Leila Bordreuil braid organ, cello, sine waves and feedback into a candlelit nocturne of air and overtones, an austere yet tender ritual where space itself becomes a third instrument.
Tepepa
On Tepepa, Ennio Morricone turns the Mexican Revolution into an operatic fever dream, braiding solemn mariachi‑tinted themes, mystical guitar‑and‑orchestra adagios and defiant song into a score where personal vengeance and collective uprising share the same melodic bloodline.
Lo Squartatore di New York
On Lo squartatore di New York, Francesco De Masi fuses rock‑charged aggression with aching lyricism, setting Lucio Fulci’s urban nightmare to a score where feral action cues collide with the unforgettable tenderness of “New York One More Day” and the bittersweet elegy “Fay.”
L'ineluctable pulsation du temps
Building upon a prolific period that has witnessed the French composer, vocalist, and multi instrumentalist deliver roughly a dozen remarkable releases overthe last five years, Delphine Dora joins Marionette with ‘L’ineluctable pulsation du temps’, what might just be her most astounding release to date. Comprising ten keyboard driven compositions across its two sides, in unfurling sheets of texture, timbre, and tone, Dora draws a constellation of touchstones into her fold — Impressionism, Minim…
Dialoghi del Presente
Naples, 1977. Luciano Cilio's sole recorded work is pure magic - four "quadri" where strings, woodwinds, wordless voices and solitary guitar trace the edges of silence. Closer to Arvo Pärt and Morton Feldman than to any Italian prog, yet entirely its own universe. Music that breathes, suspends time, breaks your heart without raising its voice. Decades ahead of its time. First ever remaster from the original tapes.
Live - Hhaï
Remastered and pressed on translucent blue vinyl. 2LP deluxe edition. One of the greatest live albums ever recorded is back on vinyl in deluxe form. Christian Vander and his cosmic warriors captured at the absolute peak of their powers - Taverne de l'Olympia, Paris, June 1-5, 1975. The Island Mobile studio rolling tape. Five nights of pure Zeuhl fury. This is the lineup. After the departure of Jannick Top and most of the original formation in late '74, Magma rose from the ashes with a rejuvenate…
People In Sorrow
** Grey-area reissue on colored vinyl ** Recorded in Boulogne-Billancourt, France on July 7th, 1969 - one of the most fruitful periods for the group. Originally released on Pathé, later reissued by Chuck Nessa on his legendary Nessa Records. Now back on vinyl, on blood-red transparent wax! 40 minutes of PURE free improvisation. One extended piece, split across two sides. Lester Bowie on trumpet and flugelhorn, Joseph Jarman on alto sax, bassoon, oboe and flute, Roscoe Mitchell on soprano, alto a…
Guitars Infernal
The Greatest Living Guitarist returns! Following the acclaimed Broken Heart Surgery in 2025, Roy Montgomery delivers another stunning chapter in his ever-expanding sonic universe. Recorded in 2016 during a period of great turbulence in Montgomery's home life, Guitars Infernal emerges NOW - a decade later - because, while wholly instrumental, it "speaks" to extremely turbulent times in the world at large. Hold on to your hats. This is HEAVY.
Nine tracks of pure six-string electric guitar alchemy.…
Deserted Palace
Transversales Disques proudly presents the first official LP reissue of "Deserted Palace", studio album written & performed by Jean Michel Jarre in 1972, during his work experience at G.R.M. (Groupe de Recherches Musicales). In 1971, an order was placed with producer Francis Dreyfus to provide sound for public places such as airports and libraries. He decided to pass the project on to Jean-Michel, who had recently been signed by his record company.
These fifteen tracks are made with only two syn…
What Was
The first release of a 1995 studio session, produced by Evan Parker. The Kenny Wheeler Sextet includes Ray Warleigh, Stan Sulzmann, John Parricelli, Chris Laurence and Tony Levin.
Dogon A.D.
One of the most important jazz albums of the 1970s – finally in its definitive edition. Julius Hemphill's Dogon A.D. is the missing link between the avant-garde and the blues, between the cotton fields and outer space. Recorded on a freezing February day in 1972 at Oliver Sain's Archway Studios in St. Louis – no heat, malfunctioning equipment, some musicians didn't even show up – and yet what emerged was nothing short of a masterpiece. An "almost accidental classic" that has haunted collectors a…
Between Earth and Sky
A mystery begins. A journey. A vision emerges. Free, intuitive music, played spontaneously in the present moment, without any prior arrangements. I invited musicians, some of whom I’ve known and trusted for a long time, such as Fabrizio Ottaciucci, with whom I’ve enjoyed collaborating on and off since 1987. I met Fabio Mina in Bogliasco in 2007, and since then our paths have crossed more and more frequently. He has made a marvellous musical development. Then there’s Francesco, whom Fabio knew, a…
Sounds Of The Modern Hospital
Death Is Not The End reissue Mark Vernon's sought-after 2013 collection Sounds of a Modern Hospital on vinyl & cassette formats. Whilst every effort has been made to record the subject in as great a degree of isolation as possible, the sound recordings you will hear on this record were made in a real working hospital and not under controlled conditions. Therefore, on occasion, you may hear some unavoidable background noise, conversations and other extraneous sounds.
All recordings were made by M…
Chott
On his new album Chott, German-Tunisian producer and composer Taroug confronts his origins. Named after the Chott El Djerid, a vast salt lake in southern Tunisia, the ten-track album revolves around personal history and the search for identity.
Chott is a conceptual work shaped by contrasting atmospheres, from minimalistic melancholy to raw, bass-heavy intensity. It blends traditional instruments with contemporary electronic textures, drawing lines between past and present. Personal materials—su…
Après Coup
Blue Lake reveals his most ambitious album yet, which finds its visionary creator Jason Dungan harnessing the collective alchemy of his band, with ten spirited tracks that resonate with a powerful directness, evoking an ecological connection to the wider world.
Hope for Nothingness as Something
*75 copies limited edition* A two-chapter suite for modular & FM synth, wind & string instruments, electronics, sound objects and field recordings. The work is structured as a two-chapter descent from concrete score to analog & digital abstraction. It begins with the tangible written material and human presence of the performers, which are systematically subjected to a process of erosion. The initial components are reduced to "digital dust” — meaningless data fragments — then recombined algorith…
Piano Studies
*75 copies limited edition* Piano Studies is a set of pieces recorded on a salvaged piano body at Elektronmusikstudion (EMS) in Stockholm. Using free-floating metal preparations and various mallets, these works use this alternative hammer escapement mechanism to coax a particular inharmonic resonance from its skeleton frame.
