** Special Time-Limited Offer ** With My Conception, Sonny Clark pushes deeper into his own compositional world, joined by Donald Byrd on trumpet, Hank Mobley on tenor saxophone, Clifford Jordan on tenor, Paul Chambers on bass, and Art Blakey and Philly Joe Jones alternating on drums. The music balances intricate structures with a direct, singing quality: heads full of unexpected turns that still lodge in the ear, solo sections that encourage the horns to stretch without losing the thread. Clark…
** Special Time-Limited Offer ** On Bass on Top, Paul Chambers quietly but firmly moves the bass into the spotlight, supported by Hank Jones on piano, Kenny Burrell on guitar, and Art Taylor on drums. Standards become opportunities for Chambers to state themes and improvise with a singing, resonant tone that never gets lost, even in the lowest register. The rhythm section reverses the usual hierarchy: Jones and Burrell comp and solo with taste, but always leave room for Chambers’ lines to lead. …
** Special Time-Limited Offer ** Byrd in Flight finds Donald Byrd’s trumpet carried aloft by shifting combinations of Jackie McLean on alto sax, Hank Mobley on tenor, Duke Pearson at the piano, Doug Watkins and Reggie Workman sharing bass duties, and Lex Humphries and Philly Joe Jones on drums. The album’s variety of line‑ups underlines Byrd’s range: from soulful, medium‑tempo burners to more introspective pieces that spotlight his warm tone and melodic ease. Each configuration finds a different…
** Special Time-Limited Offer ** With Roots & Herbs, Art Blakey leads a Jazz Messengers unit that includes Lee Morgan on trumpet, Wayne Shorter on tenor saxophone, Bobby Timmons on piano, and Jymie Merritt on bass, a line‑up that can pivot from crisp unisons to eruptive solos in a heartbeat. The tunes are full of rhythmic feints and harmonic twists, yet the band makes it all sound effortless. Blakey’s drumming is simultaneously a grid and a storm: he sets up hits, detonates climaxes, and constan…
A hidden gem from bossa nova pioneer João Gilberto resurfaces with the reissue of 1970 En México, capturing the artist in artistic exile during his time in Mexico City. This intimate album blends timeless Brazilian classics, sultry boleros, and jazz standards, all filtered through Gilberto’s signature whisper-soft vocals and minimalist guitar accompaniment.

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…

Uzbek, Tajik, Kurdish & Uyghur artists pulling traditional folk motifs together with pop & rock and psych elements.
"These recordings do not form a smooth or coherent history. They feel more like a sequence of discoveries…
*Special discounted pricing. 2026 repress* 40 years after the beginnings of the Italo disco movement 'Milano Undiscovered' leads us to discover the first ferments of the Milanese post-punk dance scene. In the early 80's future producers began to veer towards a form of dance music not yet defined, what once seemed like an experimental form, today sounds like a cornerstone for future development in the club scene of key city as Berlin, Paris, Stockholm and Amsterdam.
Italo disco was first mistreat…

The Don Rendell - Ian Carr quintet, created in 1963, was,a small Brit jazz group that took the country by storm and was well received in Europe and in limited circles in the United States. The band developed a unique sound that came out of hard bop and moved through many different phases, developing a unique musical language before they reached the mountain top of creative expresión.
On Fun House, The Stooges tear rock down to its studs and rebuild it as a single, sweating organism: seven tracks of feral groove, free‑jazz squall, and Iggy Pop at maximum possession, a record that still feels like a room on the verge of imploding.
On Litfiba 3, Litfiba close their “trilogy of power” with a sharp, politically charged rock album where Mediterranean new wave, hard‑edged guitars, and an almost cinematic sense of drama crystallise into one of the band’s most enduring statements.
On Desaparecido, Litfiba ignite their “trilogia del potere” with eight songs where British‑tinged new wave collides with Mediterranean melody and political allegory, turning Italian rock into something at once cosmopolitan, urgent, and obstinately local.
The self‑titled Epsilon introduces Epsilon as one of those early‑70s outfits that understood rock not as a fixed style but as a volatile intersection of impulses: hard rock muscle, blues phrasing, progressive ambition, and a lingering psychedelic afterglow. The album moves with the confidence of a band that has internalised late‑60s British rock grammar - heavy guitar, insistent Hammond, a rhythm section that can punch and pivot - yet refuses to collapse into pure riff worship. Instead, the grou…
On Clandestine Anticipation, Krisma leave Italo-disco behind for a humid, video‑age dystopia, nine songs where synthetic funk, proto‑industrial atmosphere, and tropical mirages collide into one of the strangest Italian pop artefacts of the early 80s.
The 2018 release of Universal Beings, in many ways, feels like the moment that the gates swung open for both Makaya McCraven and International Anthem. On one hand, it's a four-sided communal showcase of the inter-city exchange that had started to develop in the “new jazz” hubs, collecting group improvisations from New York, London, Chicago, and Los Angeles. On the other, it is an editing and post-production masterclass – the MVP of McCraven’s “organic beat music” concept – and a landmark moment …
Recorded live at Detroit’s Grande Ballroom in 1968 and released in 1969, MC5’s Kick Out The Jams turns a single night into an explosive proto‑punk manifesto, fusing free‑jazz chaos, garage rock riffing, and revolutionary rhetoric into one compressed blast of electricity.
On Felona E/And Sorona 2016, Le Orme revisit their classic sci‑fi concept with a contemporary studio language, stretching the tale of twin planets into a more spacious, synth-forward sound that drifts between nostalgia and quiet reinvention.
*Cover TBA* The original soundtrack for “Garage: Bad Dream Adventure,” long regarded among gamers as a “legendary cult classic,” will finally be released on vinyl ahead of its 30th anniversary. The game's setting is a labyrinthine world of ruinous wooden structures, rusted metal, and sewage-filled passages.Tomonori Tanaka's music seeps through the cracks of this meticulously constructed world, cold and shadowed as if sinking into the depths, stirring an indescribable unease while simultaneously …
2026 repress with new cover art, which is the original artwork designed by Takao firstly released on his private Bandcamp page in early 2018.
"Stealth" is the aptly-titled debut album from Tokyo-based composer/producer Takao. Gliding in under the radar with thirteen slyly sweet and subtle miniatures, these pieces are refreshing light-explosions of gentle harmony and modestly grand melodies. Fans of New Age and tonal minimalism wil enjoy this music, but its brevity reveals a pop-influenced aesthe…
