Edition of 400. Wired was an ephemeral improvisational music project formed by Michael Ranta, Karl-Heinz Böttner, and Mike Lewis. On 28 April 1970, the trio recorded an extended studio session of approximately 140 minutes, in collaboration with Conny Plank, who engineered and mixed the recording in real time, incorporating elements of live electronics. This session was subsequently edited to album length and released in 1974 as part of the Free Improvisation 3LP box set issued by Deutsche Grammo…

*300 copies limited edition* A lost jewel of 1970s Japanese psychedelia. Recorded by high school friends Minoru Sasaki and Masanori Nishigaito who spent their days rehearsing in a decrepit abandoned hospital, supported by their friends’ band Momonga. Self-released in 1974 in only 100 copies on the highly collectible Mountain Fuji Record imprint, most surviving copies have surfaced without jackets, further adding to the record’s mystique. For fans of private press psych and Japanese folk rock act…

British Jazz Explosion Series! Recorded in '69, Greek Variations & Other Aegean Exercises is irresistible on two counts. First, for its daringly conceived and brilliantly performed music, inspired by Greek folk songs and instrumental textures and deep enough to reveal all its treasures only after many repeated listenings. Second, for being recorded at the moment when the Don Rendell/Ian Carr Quintet, a major force in British straight-ahead jazz since '62, had broken up and Carr's equally influen…

On The Heart Is A Lotus, The Michael Garrick Sextet with Norma Winstone trace a quietly radical path through British jazz: modal, spiritual and poetically inclined, with Winstone’s voice drifting inside the ensemble like vapor rather than standing in front of it.

On The Smoke, The Smoke condense 1968’s lysergic optimism into a single, ornate LP, fusing sunshine pop hooks, baroque arrangements and studio playfulness into a seamless, dream‑like suite rather than a conventional rock album.

On the occasion of famous French writer Michel Houellebecq's new album release, Tricatel reveals a special edition of his cult first album Présence Humaine, in a blue vinyl limited edition. The album has been arranged and produced by Bertrand Burgalat, who is also the music composer of the album.

Cinevox Record is pleased to reissue on CD the iconic music by Goblin for the film “Buio Omega” directed in 1979 by Aristide Massaccesi (also known as Joe D'Amato) and scored by Goblin. This new CD reissue contains material from two previous Cinevox CD editions: CD MDF 304 with selected and titled tracks, suites and alternative versions, and CD MDF 631 with every “M” take recorded at the time for the film. Fans will thus have in their hands a truly precious disc, taken from a cult horror film, i…

On My Spare Time, Isao Suzuki steps out front on piccolo bass in a luminous set of standards and ballads, wrapping bossa, Ellington and songbook classics in a warm, conversational post‑bop glow with some of Japan’s finest players.

On Daguri, Kosuke Mine Quintet channel early‑70s Coltrane fire into a distinctly Japanese voice, fusing spiritual intensity, modal lyricism and subtle exotic color into a taut, forward‑rushing statement that stands among Mine’s finest recordings.

Newly remastered version of Oren Ambarchi’s long out-of-print classic Hubris originally released on Editions Mego in 2016. Expertly remastered by audio wizard Joe Talia who worked with the original mixes, highlighting the myriad details of the audio with forensic precision, previously unheard up until now.From the 2016 press release:Hubris continues the exploration of relentless, driving rhythms heard on Ambarchi’s Sagittarian Domain (2012) and Quixotism (2014). Where those records looked to Kra…

On Colonial Vipers, various artists from the Dutch Trumpett orbit condense the 1982 home‑taping surge into 13 rare tracks of minimal synth, DIY cold wave and concrete industrial atmospherics, finally transferred from cassette obscurity to heavyweight vinyl.

*100 copies limited edition* Pursuant to PQR’s reissue of San Michael’s and Gandalf’s albums (both sold out in a flash), and more recently of Midsommar’s debut, we continue digging into the gold reserves of the Swedish 70s underground to unearth the highly collectable album by Kontinuerlig Drift (meaning ‘continuous operation’ in Swedish). Just like Gandalf, this is a versatile album, equally split into ethnoprog, psychedelic and bluesy moments, all of which were indispensable facets of the band…

*100 copies limited edition* First ever reissue, remastered by the band. Long recognized as a one-off gem among Europrog collectors, Coma’s debut Financial Tycoon reflects the proclivity of Danish peers such as Secret Oyster and Burnin’ Red Ivanhoe for producing outstanding jazz-fusion, albeit uniquely blended with prog textures, and a sardonic sensitivity that was engraved across Europe in the releases of the likes of Kandahar, Supersister, Banzai, Brainstorm, Plastic People of the Universe, Pa…

*100 copies limited edition* We are repentlessly thrilled to bring you the first reissue of Tercer Milenio, probably the best hard rock/heavy prog album released in the prolific Argentina 70’s scene. This is a more mature and tighter effort compared to Orion’s Beethoven’s debut Superangel that places them in the spotlight of heavy prog/proto metal. The album’s opening blaster Amistades Desparejas establishes very clear expectations about what is to follow: a tapestry of scorching riffs and acid-…

Wewantsounds is delighted to continue its extensive reissue program of Meiko Kaji's early discography, originally released by Teichiku Records in Japan between 1972 and 1974. The Quentin Tarantino muse—famous for her starring roles in Lady Snowblood and Stray Cat Rock—was also a gifted singer. Otoko Onna Kokoro No Aika is another collection of superb cinematic songs featuring Kaji's signature mix of Japanese Pop and Groove, backed by lush, atmospheric orchestrations. This includes her rendition …

"Live At The Hammersmith Odeon 1982." is an electrifying concert, recorded on February 8, 1982, captures the raw energy and dynamic performance of the band during the second leg of their acclaimed La Folie British tour. Originally recorded for the BBC radio series 'In Concert,' this performance remained in the vaults for nearly 16 years before seeing its first official release on CD. Fans can finally experience the unfiltered excitement and passion of The Stranglers, as they take the stage at on…

The music on this record is a reflection of journeys and travel. The real world kind and the metaphorical ones as well. Having experienced the arrival of my children, the decline and departure of my parents, and the many years of venturing out and returning home in my own life, travel feels like the perfect tropology to consider the mysteries we inhabit. Travel and Its impressions, rituals, superstitions-the possibilities and risk-all open up onto the landscape of our biggest questions, fear and…

Emotional Rescue returns after a much-needed year hiatus, refreshed and ready, as it moves into its 15th year, to further explore the environs of oft-forgotten musical secrets and present them to new heads and minds. To celebrate, the label looks back to one of its favourite collaborations, the music of French ‘Ethno-Industrialists’ Vox Populi! in presenting a truly unique EP of “In Dub”, inspired remixes by 4 fellow Paris based artists of today in Full Circle, Froid Dub, Krikor and Shelter. “In…

A Circle of Skin is music to give solace during the dark autumn evenings. Creating images and patterns of comfort to deflect from the hallucinogenic disorientations of reality. As ever with these things, there are always demons and spirits lurking within the shadows of the album. Showing us with a sharpened realisation to be mindful, as things can always get worse. These are the murky undercurrents of a soundtrack which keeps us moving forward and alive. The sounds present are at once both organ…

*100 copies limited edition* Originally released in 1986, Folk Music stands as one of the most uncompromising statements to emerge from the Japanese industrial underground. Created by Jun Konagaya after the dissolution of White Hospital, the album marked the beginning of Grim as a singular and fully autonomous project. Influenced by the early extremity of SPK and Whitehouse, Konagaya developed a sound built from metallic percussion, distorted bass pressure, detuned organ textures and heavily pro…

Somewhere between 1967 and 1968, at the very nerve of the psychedelic era, Japanese singer and composer Harumi recorded in New York an album that today sounds like a lost manifesto of cosmopolitan psychedelic pop. Harumi is a rare example of delicate, almost fragile psychedelia - where Eastern melodic sensibility meets soft American folk-rock and the studio imagination of the late 1960s. Recorded with New York musicians, the album moves between dream-pop long before the term existed, baroque pop…

Oidupaa Vladimir Oyun was a Tuvan musician and a man with an amazing, but really heavy destiny, a man of unbending will and divine talent and the creator of a unique style of throat singing, accompanied by playing the button accordion. Researchers described Oidupaa's style as blues and emphasized the complexity of this style of performance, which requires the singer to exert a lot of tension on the vocal cords. This is the author's unique version of the deepest and most powerful type of throat s…

At the turn of the millennium the original „Astral Disaster“ subcription-only vinyl release was somewhat of an Unholy Grail for Coil collectors! Virtually unobtainable in its original fiercely limited format of only 99 copies, it is the only album apart from the original „Musick to play in the Dark“ record to combine the genius of Balance and Sleazy with both Drew McDowall and Thighpaulsandra's talents. Like „Musick“ it is an essentially tidal/lunar record with literal washes of sound enveloping…

Sara Dale's Sensual Massage was a delightful erotic video with a mystic soundtrack by Coil. Quite unusual for the band dreamy ambient, almost spa-relaxed soft harmonies, bland tribal rhythms, chimes, and birdsong but still with dark mysterious and inimitable Coil musick's charm. However, the second part of the album explores more rhythmic structures that remind 'Gay Man's Guide...' soundtrack.  Besides the OST recordings, the edition includes bonus tracks from the "Basilisk prod.'s" era: “Theme …

2026 stock The Original Sins was a garage Rock band that formed in 1985 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, USA. The group were known for combining the musical stylings of punk rock, psychedelic rock, and even pop music with their songs. The band released a total of nine full-length studio albums across their entire career before they band broke up in early 1998.

2026 stock “Challenge” was released in 1981 on Bootleg, a record label born inside a record store in Pavia with the same name. “Challenge” keeps the original and uncompromising punk attitude alive. 3 groups: No Suicide (from the Udine province), Mercenary God (from Gemona), No Submission (from Treviso), all sick children of the industrious, rich and Christian Democratic north-eastern part of Italy.

2026 stock Formed in Rome in 1984, this is a newly mastered release of ARPIA's first demo tape from 1987. “De Lusioni” is comprised of 7 songs -clocking at 71 minutes- which the band has described at an "experimental demo but of rich forms and ideas later developed in a more organic way."   The massive reverb on the vocals and guitar on the opening track, "1783," immediately reminds one of Paul Chain. Some songs find the band dropping into the experimental/theatrical realm with vocals that sound…

2026 stock “Terminal” by The Windbreakers is a sharply crafted collection of jangly guitar pop that balances tuneful immediacy with a rough, emotional edge. Built around bright, chiming guitars and insistent rhythms, the album channels the energy of mid‑’80s college rock while keeping the songwriting lean and direct. Tracks like “Off and ON,” “Changeless,” and “That Stupid Idea” showcase a knack for hook-laden melodies that stick after the first listen, yet the arrangements never feel polished t…

2026 stock "Run" is the sophomore album by The Windbreakers, a jangle pop duo from Jackson, Mississippi. Released in 1986 on Twin/Tone Records, it showcases their signature blend of melodic Southern pop hooks and raw emotional depth. Hailed as a power pop gem, "Run" earned cult status for its infectious energy and DIY spirit. It remains a standout in the 1980s indie scene, influencing jangle and alternative acts.

Dive into the eclectic genius of Frank Zappa with this essential 8-CD retrospective, spanning two decades of groundbreaking music from 1966 to 1986. Capturing the evolution of Zappa's visionary career—from the raw rock edge of The Mothers of Invention to his orchestral masterpieces and satirical masterpieces—"20 Years Of Frank Zappa" showcases 68 tracks that define his irreverent style, blending jazz fusion, doo-wop parody, avant-garde experimentation, and razor-sharp social commentary. Highligh…

**Limited Edition of 60 numbered copies ** Paul Chain’s 1994 experimental album. "There are sections of familiar guitarplay included as well as the standard hammond organ, but still all metal/rock fans should be warned that this is mostly an electronica/industrial release. The mood of the album varies between lamentation and insane anxiety. In particular, ‘Prescence Of The Soul’s Forest’ is utterly disturbed and the vocals of Sandra Silver is what makes the most impact. There are no lyrics at al…

In Behind Eleven Deserts, Stephan Micus braids suling, sarangi, sitar and bodhrán into a quietly radiant ritual, a 1978 desert mirage where distant traditions dissolve into one slow, breathing, unmistakably Micusian song.

2026 stock Westwood One In Concert, Broadcast July 18, 1994 captures a live radio broadcast performance by the British synthpop duo Erasure, featuring Andy Bell and Vince Clarke. This recording stems from a Westwood One promotional series, airing on US radio stations in mid-1994 amid the promotion of their album I Say I Say I Say. It showcases the duo at the peak of their commercial success, with hits like "Always" dominating charts that year. The setlist likely draws from their 1991–1994 repert…

2026 stock Armageddon's self-titled album, originally released in 1975 by A&M Records, receives a premium reissue from Delic Records (catalogue DLC 147-25). This limited-edition LP revives the cult classic hard rock/prog masterpiece featuring ex-Yardbirds vocalist Keith Relf, guitarist Martin Pugh (from Steamhammer), bassist Louis Cennamo, and drummer Bobby Caldwell. Formed in 1974 as a supergroup blending British blues rock, progressive elements, and early heavy metal, Armageddon delivered a ra…

2026 stock "Live" is a renowned double live album by the influential German rock band Frumpy, originally released in 1973. Capturing their final performances before disbanding, it showcases powerhouse vocals from Inga Rumpf, Jean-Jacques Kravetz's signature Hammond organ, and the original lineup's bluesy prog-rock energy during 1971-1972 shows in Germany.

Larrison’s Connecters Vol. 1: Original Recordings, 1992–1999 rescues a lone CZ‑5000 and one quietly obsessive mind from cassette oblivion, revealing 26 miniatures where lo‑fi space‑age pop, DIY synth craft and daydream cinema gently fold into each other.

2026 stock The year after "de lusioni," the evolution continued with Arpia’s second demo "Resurrezione e Metamorfosi", a suite of more than 40 minutes, in which the lyrical element is stronger and the musical research more articulated. The hermetic and dreamlike text develops a continuous becoming, strengthened by the close relationship with the musical structures. “Resurrezione e Metamorfosi” represents, in the development and evolution of Arpia's musical path, a real distinction in the process…

2026 stock One of the most astonishing British private pressing rarities. The music runs the gamut from heavy space-rock jamming (including a snatch of ‘Interstellar Overdrive’) to folk/rock (an acoustic cover of ‘Light My Fire’ and a stunning version of ‘Watch The Stars’), avant-garde choirs krautrock-styled interludes and even trad jazz. The result is among the trippiest albums I have ever heard. Comparable only to Jumble Lane in terms of eccentricity

2026 stock Originally the debut release on Decca's Nova label, this blistering UK psych-blues powerhouse features singer Steve Bailey's raw, hoarse vocals, Ron Bending on bass, Terry Sims on drums, and guitarist Bob Weston (later of Fleetwood Mac) delivering frantic riffs and solos akin to early Spooky Tooth, Leafhound, or Free. Tracks like the epic 12-minute "Darkness," driving "Going Home," and gritty "Take These Chains" capture turn-of-the-decade intensity with pounding drums and heavy guitar…
