Basta Now is essentially a huge (yet admittedly not definitive) overview of 2…

Sea Island
*2025 repress* 2014's »Sea Island« was recorded over two years. While many of these compositions were performed live extensively prior to recording, others were constructed in the studio and are being heard for the first time here. Musically, the album represents a range of compositional approaches. Murky, densely textured depths of sound are explored with subtle pulses and pings woven within, contrasted with composed or improvised moments of acoustic instrumentation making a move into the foreg…
Nastri Dimenticati
*93 copies limited edition* Giancarlo Drago's The Tapes project unearths Nastri Dimenticati ("Forgotten Tapes"), a collection that bridges the project's original 1982-1992 incarnation with its 2016 revival. These rediscovered recordings showcase the raw experimentalism that defined Drago's teenage years, when toy instruments and primitive recording techniques created accidental masterpieces.
The cassette format returns these sounds to their original medium, emphasizing the materiality of magneti…
A Shot in the Factory (Book)
This book explores the theme of workers' struggles at the heart of Finnish director Erkko Kivikoski's 1973 film, drawing on a seminal report by writer Marja-Leena Mikkola on female industrial workers and placing both works in the broader context of the history of the Finnish labour movement.
A Shot in the Factory: Workers into the Frame is based on the 1973 Finnish film directed by Erkko Kivikoski. Set at the dawn of the neoliberal era, the film A Shot in the Factory [Laukaus Tehtaalla] tells th…

Tebugo
"This is special for me. Evan Parker and Paul Rogers have given their permission for this release. I asked Evan if he would write some notes but he wants me to do it – my memory of the gig. That was 33 years ago (1992), so I don’t remember much. It was at the old Vortex on Stoke Newington Church Street; I must have been sitting with Candy on a little table in front of the low stage. A Marantz cassette recorder in front of me and a cheap mic stand with a single stereo mic in front of that. The ma…

Love And Poetry
Totally trippy Irish psychedelia for the morning after the ‘Summer of Love’. Led by Belfast-born prodigy David Lewis, Andwellas Dreams' debut album Love and Poetry from 1969 blurs the line between Denmark Street and Cyprus Avenue. A 13-song pastoral fever dream that was lost in the CBS warehouse, now remastered and restored to its original splendour.
Shipwreck Radio Volume One (Seven Sonic Structures From Utvær)
2025 Repress This is the original double CD, which has long been out of print, remastered, with additional tracks made with the sounds recorded during the project.

This double disc on Potter's ICR label contains 7 of these broadcasts. Windswept field recordings, f…
Never Say When
Broken Flag was never only a noise label. Never Say When, the compilation Gary Mundy assembled in 1987 as the imprint neared its end, is the evidence: ten tracks mapping a network that ran from Croydon to Udine, almost none of them behaving the way the label's reputation would predict.
Mundy founded Broken Flag in 1982, out of a bedroom in South London, alongside his own project Ramleh. Across the decade it issued early work by The New Blockaders, Consumer Electronics, Skullflower, Maurizio Bian…
The Blues of the Indian Ocean
The islands of the Indian Ocean witnessed a rapid and chaotic mixing of cultures: Africans kidnapped from different regions of the continent, the indentured labourers from Africa and India and settlers from the Middle East and China. The infinite creativity of humans confronted with the hardship of colonial capitalist reality gave rise to a new form of music that – just like creole language – had not existed before. New instruments were created: the ravann – a form of frame drum, and the maravan…
Uranus - Tibetan Singing Bowls
Digipack CD. In the late 1980s, Klaus Wiese (Popol Vuh) deepened his connection with Tibetan culture. The result is a series of works solely dedicated to the universal purity of the Singing Bowls. Uranus, perhaps the most rigorous of these, is an intense meditation on the trans-personal sphere of the VI chackra. The music becomes like a single harmonic chant, the reflection of a constant flow of divine light, which transforms the psyche and dilates the secret passages of the heart. In the galaxy…
Elf Bagatellen
The historical importance, influence, and stature of the Schlippenbach Trio was cemented long ago. Formed in 1970 by German pianist Alexander von Schlippenbach in the early days of European free jazz, the group also featured British saxophonist Evan Parker and German drummer Paul Lovens, and soon formed the core of the mighty Globe Unity Orchestra from that point on. As heard on its 1972 debut for FMP Pakistani Pomade - reissued by Cien Fuegos back in 2015 - its foundational music helped establi…
Chance
The home-recorded album everything pointed to - now on vinyl and CD for the first time. After several delays, we finally received the long-awaited production date from the pressing plant - and are happy to share this long-overdue announcement. Following the 2022 reissue of Scott Seskind’s 1985 debut, there was never a question - we wanted to go further.
Ebalunga!!! exists to restore forgotten gems, and Scott’s music has been warming our hearts for years. So, to our own joy - and in response to a…
Cumbia Cumbia Cumbia!!! (Vol. 4)
The historical origins of cumbia are nebulous and imprecise. The mythology surrounding it suggests an ancient past when Amerindian, African and European musical sounds were mixed together. After digging deep into the overwhelming archives of Discos Fuentes, Codiscos and Discos MAG in our previous volumes, this fourth instalment in the series “Cumbia Cumbia Cumbia!!!” comprises 28 Colombian cumbia bangers for the dance floor from the deep vaults of Discos Tropical, all of them originally releas…
