Reissues
Luurankolauluja
Luurankolauluja is Uusi Aika’s deep dive into spiritual fusion, where Nordic folk, modal jazz, and raga-like improvisations meet. Rooted in forest myth and cosmic calm, the album’s six compositions form a slow-burning suite of luminous, contemplative beauty.
6 Days in Leysin
6 Days in Leysin showcases Greg Foat in a quietly adventurous mood: drawing inspiration from the Swiss setting, he gathers a small ensemble to record original pieces defined by warmth, melodic transparency, and a delicate blend of acoustic and electronic jazz elements. The collection is a testament to Foat’s ongoing search for fresh forms in contemporary jazz, rooted in lyrical minimalism and atmospheric production.
Polar Sequences
In October 1995, as part of the annual Polar Music Festival, Geir Jenssen of Biosphere and Bobby Bird of The Higher Intelligence Agency, were commissioned by Nor Concerts to collaborate together on a musical project to take place in Geir's home town of Tromsø, Norway. The brief was for them to perform three concerts, using sounds sourced from the area as the basis of the music - the machinery of the local mountain cable lift, the snow, the ice. The performances from which this recording is taken…

Belgium’s avant-rock legends explore their prehistory in a special archival project.

These 17 tracks and 80 minutes of music will take us for a stroll through moments of free rock, improv, quasi-kraut, modular & ambient electronics, and various experiments. Out on November 21 on digital, limited…
Schwingungen
2025 Repress. Ash Ra Tempel's masterpiece, an immortal record of stunning beauty. As for the info we refer to Julian Cope´s review in his “Krautrocksampler” Book, Publisher "'Beware of Schwingungen!' That should be the large sticker on the front of all copies of this record. For it is dangerous to be casually introduced to something that is life-changing, as I found out to my cost when first listening to this record. It all starts fairly simply and without any cause for alarm – 'Look at Your Sun…
Flyin' Shoes
** 2025 stock ** This is another stalwart collection from Townes Van Zandt, and not a dud in the bunch. The melodies here are strong, the lyrics full of Van Zandt's razor sharp insight, and the production is sparse and to the point, bringing to mind the inconspicuous polish of High, Low and in Between. The feel here is a balance between folk and country, with Van Zandt's voice and guitar up front, letting the songs speak for themselves. The tunes are full of heartbreak and hopelessness, making i…
The Book of Job
The Book of Job is a boundary-pushing work by Super Grupa Bez Fałszywej Skromności, merging avant-garde jazz, spiritual recitation, and sound experiments. Conceived in martial-law Poland, the album is both requiem and protest—an immersive journey through collective struggle, transcendence, and artistic resilience.
Veruschka
Veruschka, composed by Ennio Morricone and performed by Edda Dell'Orso, is a landmark in Italian soundtrack tradition. The album, first released on CD in 1995 with 14 tracks and later expanded, encapsulates lounge moods, ambient textures, and avant-garde fragments, capturing the ephemeral world of fashion and introspection with atmospheric precision. Double transparent blue vinyl edition of 500.
Della Morte dell'Amore
Della Morte dell'Amore composed by Manuel De Sica, embodies a complex fusion of brooding electronics, subtle jazz, and gothic undertones, reflecting the film's darkly comic narrative. Spanning 34 tracks, the album stands out for its evocative mood shifts and meticulous attention to emotional detail. Limited purple vinyl edition of 500.
Il Medico della Mutua
Limited transparent yellow vinyl edition of 500. l Medico della Mutua, composed by Piero Piccioni in 1968, delivers a brilliant soundtrack that fuses jazz, easy listening, and orchestral flourishes, mirroring the satirical verve of the film. Themes shift from playful marches to sultry tangos, amplifying both the absurdity and energy of the Italian medical system’s cinematic parody.
La Matriarca
The soundtrack of “La Matriarca” is one of the finest examples of 1960s Italian musical comedy — ironic, sensual, and perfectly tailored to Catherine Spaak’s character. Trovajoli succeeds, like few others, in giving voice to the contradictions of an era through music — an Italy discovering freedom, yet with an ironic smile on its lips. Limited transparent Magenta Vinyl edition of 500.
Thailand's Golden Sounds
Baa Records’ Thailand's Golden Sounds (80's Synth-Pop & Disco) is a vibrant compilation spotlighting the evolution of Thai pop as synthesized textures and disco grooves emerged from Bangkok’s Golden Sound studios. With a focus on overlooked 1980s gems, these tracks fuse local melodic sensibilities with Western production tricks, capturing a unique and danceable era both nostalgic and unexpectedly forward-looking.
Music for a While
Michaela Melián’s Music for a While is an immersive, genre-blurring debut that fuses ambient techno currents with classical elements and subtle pop inflections. Drawing on a palette of cellos, guitars, and synthetic textures, Melián crafts extended atmospheric meditations whose compositional wit never dilutes their approachable warmth, producing a record both refined and strangely inviting, nestled between art installation and intricate electronic composition.
Tokyo Funk Diva 1981 - 1988
Hitomi ‘Penny’ Tohyama’s Tokyo Funk Diva 1981-1988 introduces international audiences to one of Japan’s most charismatic exponents of funk and boogie. This capsule compilation, curated and newly remastered, captures her innovative blend of soulful vocals and sleek '80s production from a catalogue that shaped Tokyo’s underground dance music scene.
Philip Glass: The Complete Piano Etudes
Vanessa Wagner breathes new life into Philip Glass: The Complete Piano Etudes, revealing the powerful lyricism and subtle turbulence of Glass’s minimalist language. Her interpretation brings emotional intensity and poetic nuance across all 20 etudes, reflecting over a decade spent exploring the repertoire and making for an immersive listening experience.
An Hour for Piano
Edition of 80. Written in 1971, Tom Johnson's An Hour for Piano stands as a landmark of American minimalism, born from improvisatory sketches Johnson created in 1967 while accompanying a modern dance class at New York University. Johnson gradually expanded these sketches, creating a composition designed to be performed in exactly one hour at an absolutely steady tempo of quarter note = 59.225 beats per minute. Deceptively simple in its construction, An Hour for Piano comprises six basic textures…
Kielholen
Herpes Ö DeLuxe’s Kielholen dives headfirst into the murky waters of industrial decadence. With Hinterzimmer as its unsettling core, the record dissects German cold wave through rusted machinery and post-human irony, a claustrophobic yet hypnotic experience simmering between performance art and corrosion.
Definitely What! (LP)
A bold statement in jazz, rock, and soul fusion, Definitely What! finds Brian Auger & The Trinity crafting intricate grooves with magnetic energy. Hammond organ brilliance, inventive arrangements, and fearless experimentation make this album a compelling testament to the group’s genre‑defying spirit and enduring creative fire.
Another Perfect Day
Eight years since his last solo electric guitar record. Bill Orcutt returns to what made his playing essential: slashing chords, frenzied double-picking, angular runs that climb and ricochet. Recorded live at Cafe OTO. No computer loops. No gentle melodic glow. Just Orcutt and his four-string Fender through a tattered Twin Reverb.
Animal Magnetism
*Limited Edition of 99 copies. Purple vinyl * Masami Akita has been making noise since before most people understood noise could be made on purpose, and Animal Magnetism is what happens when forty years of sonic terrorism suddenly decides to sit you down and explain itself without raising its voice. Originally released on CD in 2003, this double LP reissue—remastered by Lasse Marhaug and pressed on black or purple vinyl in a gatefold sleeve featuring Akita's own photographs—adds a previously unr…
