Reissues
Of Mist And Melting
In December 1977, at the tail end of a decade he had helped to electrify, Bill Connors brought a nylon-string guitar into Oslo's Talent Studio. Three years earlier, he had walked away from Chick Corea's Return to Forever at the height of its commercial ascent, trading a 200-watt Marshall stack for the spruce-and-cedar intimacy of the classical guitar - a decision that stunned his fusion-era following and quietly redirected the course of his work. Of Mist And Melting, his second leader date for E…
We Now Create - Music For Strings, Winds And Percussion
A pivotal masterpiece by Masahiko Togashi, Masayuki Takayanagi, Mototeru Takagi, and Motoharu Yoshizawa is set to be reissued as the eighth release in the Spin This Now! series
Moondog In Europe
Originally released in 1977, Moondog In Europe was visionary composer Moondog’s first release after moving from NYC to Germany. Regarded as reflecting the historicity of his new environment, the album is more structured and formal than most of his previous releases; however, his layered song-cycles are just as circular and experimental, and still backed by a fair amount of tribal percussion.
“Viking I” opens the album with Moondog’s solo celesta playing and retains the quirk and charm of his pre…
Somewhere in the Wind
Somewhere in the Wind is the third record that Loren Connors and I have made together. Of the three, it’s the first that consists exclusively of electric guitar duos and it’s the first that was recorded live. To me it feels very much like a live record; this music happened in crowded rooms in Brooklyn on two dates in 2025 and there’s an urgency to connect with others and a pleasure in doing so that can be heard on both of these tracks. On the first of our duo records (Arborvitae, 2003) I primari…
One
Anonymous transmissions from a spectral, dead-of-night mystery zone. Recorded in 1996 and originally release by Japan's enigmatic La Musica Records label on limited cassette. A group that deconstructs and liberates the chance nature of contemporary classical and noise music enough so that their boundaries blur. Available for the first time on vinyl and digital. Recorded in 1996 and released without any identifying credits in an essentially private cassette edition, Bibiotheca Hermetica's sole re…
Outtakes
Tip! *120 copies limited edition* Our first personal contact with Bryn Jones was in 1995 when the Muslimgauze album "Silknoose" came out on my Daft Records label and the contact was always excellent. He knew that Eric, who did the mastering, and I loved his music since the beginning. Later on we planned a mini CD with 4 Muslimgauze / Sonar and 4 Sonar / Muslimgauze remixes so we exchanged some audio pieces to work with and to our great surprise Bryn sent us two DAT tapes with 16 remixes in total…
Floating Frequencies / Intuitive Synthesis I
When Eleh's debut Floating Frequencies/Intuitive Synthesis I was originally released it was praised as a powerful piece of new electronic minimalism. Twenty years later the artist's legacy has grown while Eleh continues to hypnotize new listeners with time stopping music. Critics, fans and neurologists have praised the music of Eleh as aiding attention and focus while seeming to slow time. Eleh's slow change drones are a state of flow hypnotizing listeners into meditative focus. From the origina…
El Sol de los Muertos
*150 copies limitede edition* Originally released on Umor Rex on cassette a year ago, “El Sol de los Muertos” deeply shaped the evolution and vision of Mexican producer Concepción Huerta’s sonic work, becoming a reference point for a kind of experimental sound deeply connected to Latin American critical thought. This is the second album in a series of four special, limited reissues to be released in 2026 to mark the 20th anniversary of Umor Rex.
Crafted entirely through subharmonic structures an…
Murder Ballads (Incest Songs)
Incest Songs is the final chapter of the Murder Ballads trilogy, and its most fully realized expression. Where Drift and Passages explored the post-isolationist frame through voice and single instrument, this third volume dispenses with that approach entirely, opening instead onto a more labyrinthine sonic architecture - one built from overlapping, saturating, blurring voices, all of them Martyn Bates'. The decision feels both inevitable and quietly inspired. Bates' vocalizations unfold as layer…
Many Many Women
Many Many Women by Petr Kotík is a large-scale composition for voices and instruments from 1975-78 on the text of Gertrude Stein's novella of the same name. It was published in Paris in 1910 as part of the book G.M.P. - Gertrude, Matisse, Picasso. In 1972, the book was published again by Dick Higgins in his publishing venture Something Else Press. Kotík used the complete text, which determined the length of the piece. Inspired by his close collaboration with the composer and singer Julius Eastma…
Archives
On Archives, Italian industrial pioneer Maurizio Bianchi (M.B.) assembles a stark dossier of early cassette‑era works, exposing the bare circuitry of his noise archaeology: corroded drones, medical‑grade pulses and desolate tape decay stripped of any human consolation.
My Degeneration Electronics 1974-1983
On My Degeneration: Electronics 1974-1983, Pascal Comelade emerges not as the toy‑instrument miniaturist of later years but as a solitary electronics alchemist, charting a decade of raw, laboratory‑grade synth experiments that stretch from kosmische drift to fractured proto‑industrial pulse.
The Voice of the Eagle
“I don’t call a lot of my stuff far out,” Basho explained. “I just call it a different level of feeling. It’s far in, as far as I’m concerned...I spent years on the road singing folk songs that had no meaning. It dawned on me music is supposed to say something. Music is supposed to do something.” This is a Basho vocal album – his singing, which John Fahey described as “strangely compelling”, came straight from the heart and soul with no regard for restraint, phrasing or timing. Thankfully, he wa…
Surfaces Of A Broken Marching Band
Originally released in 2008 on Ezekiel Honig’s own Anticipate Recordings, Surfaces of a Broken Marching Band finds the artist refining a compositional language rooted in the methodologies of musique concrete, ambient, and beat research. Working from a palette of environmental recordings, instrumental fragments, and soft electronic treatments, Honig pushes the source material into an array of sympathetic forms ranging from pillow-soft, lowercase ambient to diffuse downtempo and minimal house. For…
At Last I’m Leaving the Earth
Pure Motorised Instinct drives over to Dark Entries with At Last I’m Leaving the Earth, an LP of industrial-tinged ambient and new age. When legendary industrial outfit Nagamatzu went dormant in 1991, band member Stephen Jarvis moved forward with Pure Motorised Instinct, a name he pulled from a line in George Romero’s Dawn of the Dead. Throughout two cassette albums - 1991’s Between Intimacy and Elsewhere, and 1993’s Everything Is True - Jarvis pushed the Nagamatzu spirit in new directions.
At L…
Duo
On Duo, Bugge Wesseltoft and Henrik Schwarz erase the line between jazz club and club culture, weaving live piano and deep house sensibilities into a remastered, 180g hymn to groove, melody and open‑ended improvisation.
Standing Stone (LP)
2026 Repress Black vinyl. LP + Download Card. Hard cardboard sleeve + OBI. Insert with liner notes by Richard Allen & rare photos. Sourced from the original master tapes. Part-time farmer / musician Oliver Chaplin is the person behind one of the rarest private pressings from the UK.
His cult masterpiece “Standing Stone” was recorded in early 1974 at a remote farm in Wales, using a portable 4-track Teac reel-to-reel machine. Helped by his brother Chris at the controls (an experienced BBC engineer…
Forza G
Mariachi parodies, experimental jazz, lounge cues for party scenes, and a main theme that returns in five different versions. Composed in 1972 for Duccio Tessari's aviation comedy, the score to Forza "G" is one of the least visited corners of Ennio Morricone's busiest year, and now arrives on vinyl for the first time, as part of Cinevox's new Hidden Gems series.
Precious Moments
*100 copies limited edition* Sculptural, dreamlike and intimately detailed, Precious Moments is the fourth album by singer and composer Oliver Mann - this time in collaboration with acclaimed Bologna electro-acoustic composer and guitarist Stefano Pilia. A tender remembrance across nine short tracks exploring the affinity and thrills of friendship in a time when we all have internalised distance, the album features guests Mick Turner (Dirty Three / Mess Esque / Cat Power) and a scene stealing ca…
1001 Est Cremazie
On 1001 Est Crémazie, the self‑titled orchestra of middle‑schoolers and Cégep staff capture the exuberant birth of modern Quebec: raw jazz‑rock, DIY tape lore and Quiet Revolution aftershocks pressed into one unlikely, fiercely alive school‑band artefact.
