Gel Stations Past
*2024 stock* Gel Stations Past brings together tracks from three shadowy self-released cassettes by Russian Tsarlag: Decrepit Gas Station, Living in the Past, and Dipped in Gel. Dubbed in minimal quantities and cloistered for private worship, much of Russian Tsarlag’s recent output remains hard to find. Each of these albums dispersed instantly among friends and fanatics and receded into legend.This record consolidates the great pieces of crooner dejection that typify Tsarlag’s recent music. Thes…

Inconsequential
This is the final pulse of a dying giant’s heart beat. "Inconsequential" is Haynes consciously channeling the God of cold industrial, Anenzephalia, and coming out on the other side with a totally sovereign statement on authoritarian dread. An album that transmits the adrenaline soaked anxiety of the merciless advancement of the process. Nagging, nauseating oscillations, nervously braying spinal screeching, skull resonating ambience. Utilizing a more partitioned layering of sonic elements than hi…
Live At Vidro '77
** 2LP version. 180 gram vinyl. Heavy sleeve and obi ** I had no idea that Ryo Fukui had left behind such a sound source. This is a completely unreleased live performance recorded on June 8, 1977. The recording was done at Sapporo's live house "Vidro" by Masataka Ito, the producer of Fukui's "Scenery" and "Mellow Dream” albums. It is exactly the performance of the Fukui Trio from that period, but at the same time, it has an overwhelming energy and freshness that is not found in studio recordings…

Napoli Violenta
The original soundtrack of the 1976 cult movie 'Napoli Violenta', composed by Maestro Franco Micalizzi, sees a deserved reissue. A classic 70s Italian crime soundtrack! There's a quality to the music that really matches the badass image on the front – a bold, forceful approach that has the upbeat numbers strutting along with plenty of pride – and which has the mellower, more brooding tracks working themes that are simple, but which pack the same force as the revolver on the cover. Franco Micaliz…

Cuban Soul - 18 Kilates
*2024 stock * Classic work from one of Brazil's greatest soul singers! Cassiano was one of Brazil's groundbreaking soul singers of the 70s – and although he's similar to Tim Maia, he's also got a smoother sound that approximates some of the best American soul vocalists of the time.
Orquestra Afro-Brasileira
*2024 stock * For almost thirty years the conductor Abigail Cecílio de Moura led the Orquestra Afro-Brasileira, donating their effort as if it were a religious devotion. Before each presentation, he acted like a priest giving thanks, raising the stage for sacred space. The Orchestra was founded in April 10, 1942, with the purpose of studying and disseminating folk music and Brazilian customs, using sociology and anthropology to disseminate it. Mainly based on percussion instruments, at the time …
Raul Seixas
*2024 stock * Originally released in 1983 on the Eldorado label, the album "Raul Seixas", also known as "carimbador maluco" because of the success of this song, is a milestone in the artist's career. "O Carimbador Maluco" was the theme song for the children's special "Plunct Plact Zuuum", which aired on Rede Globo and was a huge success at the time. Raul Seixas himself took part in the special playing the crazy stamping man himself, a bureaucrat who demanded documents from a spaceship. In addit…
Secos & Molhados
*2024 stock * Vinyl LP-only repressing of this album from the Brazilian band. Formed in 1971 by Ney Matogrosso (vocalist), Gerson Conrad (vocalist/composer/violao) and Joao Ricardo (singer/composer/violao/harmonica), Secos & Molhados is inscribed in a privileged category of few bands and musicians who led Brazil from bossa nova through Tropicalia then to Brazilian rock, a style which only blossomed in the '80s. Much of the group's importance, apart from the huge success of it's first album, whic…
Pushed Streets
Big tip! Deluxe LP housed in tip-on jacket with gloss film laminated cover and printed inner sleeve featuring photograph and painting by Michael Morley. Over the last ten years, Michael Morley has embraced the acoustic guitar as the means of channeling the darkest threads that have run through his work since the early 1980’s. While he largely made a name for himself as a maverick of primitive electric guitar and electronics in The Dead C and Gate, Morley’s love of song form has never been far fr…

Gas
Kompakt is proud to announce, finally, a reissue of the first, self-titled GAS album. Originally released on electronica imprint Mille Plateaux back in 1996, it’s been unavailable in its original form ever since – the version of GAS included in 2008’s Nah Und Fern box featured several different tracks. Here, however, GAS is restored in all its glory, the debut full-length from Wolfgang Voigt’s most enigmatic, quixotic project. There had, of course, been signs of what was to come. Back in 1995, V…
