Two Rooms Records is excited to announce its tenth and most significant release yet, "Live on WUOM 1979" by Griot Galaxy. Nearly lost to history, this double-length release captures an extended radio performance by the seminal Afro-futurist jazz group, aka “The Sci-Fi Band,” featuring stunning versions of their classic repertoire circa 1979, in a compact, quartet setting.
Known for mixing complex polyrhythms, polytonality and non-western scales with grooves and minimalist elements from popular m…
*100 copies limited edition* « In 2025, can we still be interested in and write about the music of a band of French musicians, very “underground” who were very young at the time in the early 1970s? » writes Xavier Béal at the opening of his review of Ian Thompson's brand new book "Synths, Sax & Situationists (The French Musical Underground 1968-1978)" in the webzine Rythmes Croisés (published on October 24, 2025).
The answer is certainly yes! And although the name of Pascal Chassin is still almo…
Sissy Spacek’s Non-Linear detonates the idea of narrative from within, stitching decades of raw sessions and volatile improvisations into a panoramic fever-dream. Restlessly shape-shifting, the album spirals through states of collapse and acceleration, refusing to settle - a radical archive of noise at its most ungovernable.
First ever vinyl issue for the 1993 Death Industrial underground classic. Schloss Tegal's The Grand Guignol threads horror’s darkest rituals into a tapestry of sinister atmospheres and forensic sound design. With a palette favoring unease over spectacle, this album excavates the uncanny from the archives of fear, offering a study in slow-burning psychological disturbance that never settles for easy resolution.
An act of concentration rendered explosive, Debt of Nature’s Robin Diamond’s Lungs lunges at complacency, fusing short-form assaults with caustic wit. The album is a lungful of serrated textures, stuttering rhythms, and a throughline of existential urgency, driving headlong into the contours of disillusion and revolt.
Big tip! Beyond Rare! These historical recordings of a 1967 concert at Hope College in Michigan involving John Cage, Toshi Ichiyanagi and David Tudor, performing compositions by Ichiyanagi and Alvin Lucier, were recently discovered in an archive in Japan. The Lucier piece, "Music for Solo Performer", was the first musical composition to utilize human brainwaves; this 1967 performance, released here for the first time, is an early realization of the piece, featuring Tudor, Ichiyanagi and Lowell C…
This anthology is the second compilation from EM Records of the works of the late Henry Kawahara, a media artist and electronic music producer who was particularly active in the Japanese cyber-occult underground of the 1990s, a scene linked with technologies such as 3D (binaural) recordings, brain machines, sound chairs, computer graphics and compact discs.
These tracks, produced 1990-95, include a series of recordings described as "Parallel Data Sounds" and "Sound LSD", a "new language system t…

This unique release evokes a ghostly, timeless atmosphere, weaving together genres that inspired early 20th-century American roots music and island traditions.
Boneyard Shuffle pairs haunting soundscapes with vivid storytelling, transporting listeners to shadowy crossroads and sun-drenched shores, where spirits and musi…
How can we explain the power of music? How can songs delivered in a language which we don't understand move us so? This collection contains the very best songs from Hongthong Dao-udon, one of the great Thai singers of the "third generation" of Molam singers, one of the artists who succeeded in fusing Molam with Luk Thung, thus triggering a new generation of singers; in fact she was the first to sing both genres from the beginning of her career, considering herself to be situated happily between …
Originally released in 1972 on the Odeon label, Quarteto Em Cy stands as a high-water mark in the group’s prolific discography—and a hidden gem for collectors of Brazilian vinyl. Known for their intricate vocal harmonies and deep roots in the bossa nova movement, the quartet ventures into post-bossa territory here, where sophistication meets groove in all the right ways.Arrangements by Edu Lobo and Luiz Eça (of Tamba Trio) lend the album a richly layered sound—elegant, jazzy, and emotionally res…
Once again, Peru manages to surprise us. From the heights of the Andes come two incredible recordings that show how local folklore has embraced international hits—resulting in fun, unexpected fusions with adistinct Andean twist. ‘Do You Think I’m Sexy?’, Rod Stewart’s 1978 classic, is transformed into a powerfulhuayno anthem—complete with driving percussion and bold brass that almost echo the sound of a New Orleans street parade. Raw, energetic, and unmistakably Andean. On the flip side, we find…

The long-awaited and reissue of Wada's 1985 LP "Off The Wall", recorded in Berlin and originally released on the esteemed FMP label. A minimalist yet majestic monsterpiece ("massive", as Tom Johnson declares in his perceptive liner notes), "Off The Wall" features Wada and Wayne Hankin on bagpipes, Marilyn Bogerd on adapted organ, and percussionist Andreas Schmidt-Neri.
The original album consisted of two side-long pieces recorded on successive days by Jost Geber, who captured the power and dynam…
Yoshi Wada and EM Records presents the first-ever, world-premiere release of Earth Horns With Electronic Drone, recorded live in 1974. Combining four of Wada's self-made "pipehorns" (made from plumbing materials, over three meters in length), with an electronic drone tuned to the electrical current of the performance space, this is a lost masterpiece of early minimalism, placing Wada rightfully in the pantheon with La Monte Young, Phill Niblock, Maryanne Amacher and Alvin Lucier. Recorded live i…
"Singing in Unison" is the final in a series of recordings from acclaimed sound artist, composer and performer Yoshi Wada. Recorded live over two nights, March 14 and 15, in 1978, at New York City's legendary performance space The Kitchen, "Singing in Unison" is a dramatic yet meditative work: modal improvisations for three male voices, singing, with great gravitas, in purposeful unison.
These previously unreleased recordings, featuring vocalists Richard Hayman (aka R.I.P Hayman), Imani Smith an…
Never Forget Me is the second release on EM Records from Angkanang Kunchai, one of the greatest Thai singers; the original 1979 vinyl release, now extremely rare, was a collection of her self-produced songs, backed by her own band. This radically independent stance, though admirable, caused the album to languish in relative obscurity, due to her lack of support from the business masters of the Thai music scene of the time. "Never Forget Me" is a plea to her fans, and although the original album …
The music of Clan Caimán is primitive and hypnotic. It is located in the pre-rock era and from there, it proposes a different evolution path for music from the 1950s to present day. Like a different musical development in a parallel timeline. Gamelan, Hawaiian music, surf, exotica, rainforest or aquatic; these elements make up the palette which constructs a mystic and profound music that seeks ancestral connection.
Formed in 2016 by musician, composer and producer Emilio Haro looking to create m…
