In The Harrowing Distance
This record is a reflection on the end of existence, marked by the illness, the courage, the struggle and the final departure of N. Gomes during its making, to whom it is dedicated. May you wander freely in the shadowless lands!
"In the harrowing distance" stands out from previous Karnnos records. Experimentalism and musicality are woven together on pieces that range from subtility to agressiveness. With a renewed focus on electronics and a new set of instruments (the zither and the harmonium we…

A Love Supreme
*2026 repress* "One of the most important records ever made, John Coltrane's A Love Supreme was his pinnacle studio outing, that at once compiled all of the innovations from his past, spoke to the current of deep spirituality that liberated him from addictions to drugs and alcohol, and glimpsed at the future innovations of his final two and a half years. Recorded over two days in December 1964, Trane's classic quartet-- Elvin Jones, McCoy Tyner, and Jimmy Garrison -- stepped into the studio and …
Have You Heard About the World Coming to an End?
Death Is Not The End present a compilation gathering a cross-section of early gospel choirs and vocal harmony groups recorded between late 1920s and the mid-1950s - a period when spirituals & jubilee traditions merged with blues, jazz and early rhythm and blues, providing the musical routes for the coalescence of the civil rights movement born out of the black church. In the modern world these perennially vital recordings provide a fitting tonic for the near-dystopia we find ourselves living thr…

Kachouzu
On Kachouzu, Merzbow compresses his late‑period harshness into four short movements, a 2×6″ lathe‑cut blast where metallic textures, searing feedback and dense midrange roar behave less like tracks than like successive cross‑sections of the same noise storm.
Antibox
With Antibes, The New Blockaders compress twelve years of activity into a fiercely curated 4CD set, 100 copies only, each hand‑signed and uniquely defaced. It plays like a late‑period labyrinth: alternates, rarities, and lost shards arranged as a single, anti‑retrospective.
Succès De Scandale
On Succès De Scandale, The New Blockaders exhume and reframe their own history, collaging a feral 1984 Morden Tower performance with later materials into a single, rust‑coloured slab of anti‑music that feels like the group’s original sabotage reactivated for the present.
Kronos Quartet Performs Philip Glass

Pierrot
At a time when most bands in the post-Group Sounds boom were gravitating toward British rock, Hiroshi Segawa stood out as one of the few artists exploring country and southern rock sung in Japanese. "Pierrot" represents a peak in that pursuit, backed by an all-star lineup from Japan’s New Rock movement: Hideki Ishima and Jun Kozuki from Flower Travellin’ Band, Tetsu Uchiyama and Hiromi Harada from Samurai, and Katsuo Ohno from PYG.
This reissue includes the bonus track "Kimi ga Ita Shiroi Heya…
Friction

It is their first LP and the only one to feature singer Masatoshi Tsunematsu as a full member, with production by none other than Ryuichi Sakamoto, who helps translate the band’s live volatility into a lean, sharply contoured studio language. Coming out of the Tokyo Rockers milieu and carrying memories of time Reck and Chico H…

Live, Pass Tour '80
Live Pass Tour ’80 captures Friction at the precise moment their legend hardens into tape. Recorded during the Pass Tour at Kanagawa University in 1980, just as the band were releasing their first full‑length 軋轢 = Friction, this set has been described as the “definitive, fully edited document” of their early peak, preserving the original line‑up with singer Masatoshi Tsunematsu still fronting the group. Where studio takes tighten and cool their New York‑shaped no‑wave and Tokyo Rockers energy, t…

Live at "Ex Mattatoio" in Roma
Recorded on 28 August 1984 at the Japan Japan Festival in Rome and originally issued the following year on the Marz label, Live At "Ex Mattatoio" In Roma captures Friction far from home but fully in their element. Playing inside the former abattoir of the Testaccio district - already a rough, resonant space in the city’s underground - Reck’s group bring the sharpened angles of Tokyo Rockers to a European audience, fusing serrated no‑wave guitar, thick, stalking bass lines, and clipped, incantato…
