Let It Play (1979-1983 Selected Pieces)
*2022 stock.* This fine introduction to Hamel's varied style presents him in various moods from 1979 to 1983. Samples are taken from Transition, Colours of Time, Bardo, and a few previously unreleased selections.
Organum
*2022 stock.* 'Hamel's contemporary interpretation of the medieval musical concept known as "organum" involved an intricate interplay of modal melodies. These four extended works on pipe organ culminate in acutely intense barrages of sound and sensation. This is a challenging album.' - All Music
D
*2022 stock.* 'Beginning with moody bass and guitar plucking that wouldn't be a fraction out of place on albums by fellow German musicians like Ash Ra Tempel, D finds Deuter as both an accomplished composer and self-producer. It's not about simply technical virtuosity, of course, as the music throughout D demonstrates. At once epic in scope and with a sly, careful sense of entrancement, this is psychedelic music in the immediately post-psych world. The multi-part "Babylon," which takes up most o…
Windsong (LP)
2022 small repress Morning Trip & Yoga Records are proud to finally reveal one of the ultimate lost masterworks of new age music: Alice Damon’s Windsong. Gently propelled by Damon's haunting breath-of-life vocal winds reminiscent of Joan La Barbara underscored by field recordings and Damon's fretless bass sound calling to mind mid-70 Joni Mitchell, Windsong is traveling music, for the roads or for the skies. Instantly moving, it conjures vistas both romantically familiar and cosmically mysterio…
Nihonjin 日本人
Some albums are certainly a kind of holy grail for music lovers and collectors of a certain genre, style and era. Far Out with their eponymous debut and unfortunately also farewell album from 1973 have created such a sacred gem. Original copies in good condition change hands for up to 2000 USD and there are certainly a few not so official reprints on vinyl and CD out on the market which do not even come close to do justice to the greatness of the old original black gold. But here we go with the …

Free noise improvisation from the beginning to the end, if it's even ever ending. The sound continues its journey somewhere when the cassette stops. Broken melodies, noises and strange sounds coding the mind while the brains think it's already sleeping. Originally recorded to C90 cassette, but later both sides mixed together…

Aurinkovuosi brings together five cassette singles made by J. K., which were originally released in small editions (10 copies each) by Vuosi label during 2018–2022.

Flying Doesn't Help
Anthony Moore’s contribution to the post-punk pre-wave sound of London in 1979 – light with pop, fronted with meta-punk attitude and draped in strings of keyboard theory. As someone else said at the time, The perfect release! A lovely collision of art, pop and punk from the megacenter of all things in the rock and roll era.

SNAP#2 [The Other Shore & Cuba]
*100 copies limited edition* Tibor Szemző is presenting two compositions on his new album Snap #2 – The Other Shore and the first release of his CUBA. As the title implies, Snap #2 can be considered a sequel to his cult album Snapshot from the Island (released in 1987, 2000 and 2020). In that first album the island was a metaphor for isolation and now Snap #2 offers Szemző’s reflections of his visits to real islands, Cuba in 1988-1990 and Japan in 1992-1994. As usual, Tibor Szemző processed the …

Recorded in New York’s Record Plant under the guidance of cult producers Jimmy Curtiss and Steve Kanyon (best-known for their involvement with popsike favourites the Hobbits and the New Hobbits), this Italian-American psych rarity …

Excavation Patterns
*300 copies limited release* Originally released in a tiny CDr edition in 2005 on the now impossible-to-find and almost literally named Vanished Records imprint, Excavation Patterns is a uniquely pervasive touchstone of Adelaide’s music culture, and has since put down roots around the world among devoted aficionados of minimalism, ambient music, and improvisation.
