Reissues
Floral Shoppe
*2025 stock.* "[...] By no conventional logic should Floral Shoppe have made it beyond the deep-internet realms it emerged from. But like candy-colored mold, its power has rapidly spread while its then-teenage creator Ramona Xavier, the Portland artist now known as Vektroid, has remained an elusive figure, simultaneously a pioneer and an outlier. Her album remains one-of-a-kind in its depiction of anxiety and crisis rendered through waves of numbness that range from deeply unsettling to artifici…
Glide
**2025 Stock** The Fact of Being are happy to inform about the second step in a series of reissues of early works by Peter Davison. The long-awaited re-edition of a highly acclaimed and innovative album "Glide" 1981 to celebrate its 40th anniversary. "Glide" was the second artist's album. Released in 1981 on vinyl and urgently repressed in 1982 due to high demand it was sold-out fast again and has not been reissued since that. To date, this is one of the rarest and wanted ambient recordings that…
Nod
First Nod release from 1992, now on vinyl for the first time. Originally self-released as a CD, a subset of the recordings were perfectly re-mastered by James Plotkin for this slab of black vinyl. During the "year punk broke," this trio (and sometimes four-piece) were holed up in a Western NY enclave, perfecting their craft of imperfections. A combination of studio and home recordings, this self-titled gem perfectly introduces you to the charming shambly rock which Nod has been creating for the …
Underwater Electronic Orchestra
Ojo de Mujer presents a rare gem from the twilight zone of 1970s electronic experimentation: Labat's Transition, an album that exists in its own peculiar dimension where psychedelic disco meets aquatic reverie, and synthetic soundscapes dissolve into moments of unexpected grace. Surfacing from the depths of obscurity, this Canadian pressing has long been whispered about among collectors and connoisseurs of the era's most adventurous electronic music. The album's striking cover — featuring a figu…
Magic Thread
First released in 1998, Magic Thread finds Susumu Yokota navigating the liminal space between club rhythm and ambient reverie. Blending vaporous beats, dub inflections, and microscopic detail, the album traces the moment he stepped from late‑night dance floors into dawn-lit introspection.
Image 1983 - 1998
Image 1983–1998 by Susumu Yokota collects fifteen years of sonic fragments tracing the evolution of his ambient vision. Recorded between early tape experiments and late‑1990s compositions, it bridges lo‑fi intimacy and polished minimalism, revealing the contours of an artist forever balancing wonder and restraint.
Grinning Cat
With Grinning Cat, Susumu Yokota continues to refine his delicate ambient universe through a dreamlike balance of melody, texture, and silence. The 2001 album merges found sounds, piano fragments, and vaporous rhythms into an otherworldly narrative of domestic tranquility and imaginative reverie.
Sakura
With Sakura, Susumu Yokota unveiled an ambient masterpiece that blends sampled fragments of jazz, minimalism, and Japanese melody into a contemplative whole. Released in 1999 on Skintone and later on The Leaf Label, the album turns repetition into poetry, infusing electronic textures with a deep human warmth.
Late Autumn Sunshine
Late Autumn Sunshine by Michael Garrick, released by My Only Desire Records, gathers two rare BBC Maida Vale sessions from 1973 and 1978. With Norma Winstone’s ethereal voice and Henry Lowther’s lyrical trumpet, Garrick’s compositions glow with his characteristic blend of English pastoralism and modal jazz introspection - a rediscovery of autumnal warmth and luminous craft.
Bluebeard
With Bluebeard (1972), Ennio Morricone explores the gothic absurdity of Edward Dmytryk’s erotic thriller through a score oscillating between melancholy, parody, and psychological unease. By blending chamber restraint and baroque flamboyance, Morricone transforms the infamous tale into a study of decadence, control, and the seductions of death.
Per le Antiche Scale
In Per le Antiche Scale, Ennio Morricone sculpts a haunting and cerebral score for Mauro Bolognini’s 1975 psychological drama. Through mournful strings, dissonant gestures, and lyrical fragments, Morricone captures the fragile border between reason and madness, crafting one of his most introspective and emotionally complex film soundtracks.
La Disubbidienza
With La Disubbidienza, Ennio Morricone crafts an austere and sensual soundscape for Aldo Lado’s 1981 film. The score balances chamber intimacy and languid melodies, exploring moral tension through sparse orchestration and unexpected harmonic turns. It’s a work where desire and restraint coexist in fragile, hypnotic equilibrium.
New Music
Limited edition of 50 copies on purple vinyl. A meeting of two uncompromising sound artists, Carlos Giffoni and Joachim Nordwall, New Music fuses pulsating electronic rhythms, immersive drones, and abstract textures into a vivid, physical listening experience. Emerging from the outer edges of techno, noise, and electro-acoustic composition, both artists channel their distinct sonic vocabularies into a shared space of tension and transformation. Giffoni's deep synth drones collide with Nordwall's…
Opera
The experimental landmark Opera by FNTC returns in a remastered CD edition, nearly forty years after its original cassette release on Staalplaat in 1987. A striking document of Europe's late 80s cassette underground, Opera captures the collective at their most adventurous - merging spontaneous composition, sound collage and performance art into a single immersive experience. As a member of the Fluxus movement, Willem de Ridder brought his conceptual sensibility to the project, pushing the bounda…
Defiant Jazz: a Joe McPhee Taster
From the viral Severance TV dance party to spiritual jazz explorations, this vinyl compilation spans five decades of the Poughkeepsie legend's most electrifying moments. Funky grooves, cosmic transcendence, and raw improvisation collide.
Backwards
A decade after its long-awaited release, Coil's landmark album Backwards returns in a special 10 year anniversary vinyl reissue. The black vinyl edition comes in a gatefold matt-laminate sleeve with silver detail, honoring the album's elusive, mercurial nature with understated elegance. After the ground-breaking release of 1990's Love's Secret Domain, Coil were not dormant - far from it. The main project was Backwards, which was started in 1992, updated considerably between 1993 and 1995, and tr…
Perception
Perception is the 1973 second album by Catalyst, the Philadelphia jazz-funk quartet whose blend of soul jazz, fusion, and avant-garde set them apart as a cult phenomenon. Featuring Zuri Tyrone Brown (bass), Onaje Sherman Ferguson (drums, percussion), Nwalinu Odean Pope (tenor saxophone, flute), and Sanifu Eddie Green (electric piano), the album stretches from spacious, electric fusion to driving, groove-forward funk and episodes of free improvisation. Recently reissued to renewed acclaim, Percep…
By All Means
By All Means is the new album from Aaron Parks due for release on November 7, 2025 via Blue Note Records, expanding the acclaimed Parks-Street-Hart jazz trio into a luminous acoustic quartet with the addition of tenor saxophonist Ben Solomon. This set of seven original compositions explores Parks’ signature mix of modern jazz innovation and tradition, highlighted by tender dedications to his wife and son and the sly, swinging lead track “Parks Lope”.
Faust IV
Faust left Wümme's anarchic freedom for The Manor's professional constraints. Virgin wanted a hit. Faust IV was the answer: their most paradoxical album, accessible yet destabilizing, part studio work, part salvage. The sessions stretched, the budget vanished, the result endures—uneven, restless, compelling. Fifty years later: still mid-sentence, still profound, gloriously incomplete.
Tandoor Dog
*2025 Stock* "In 1998 Staalplaat and Muslimgauze were on a conquering spirit. Bryn Jones (1961-1999), the man behind Muslimgauze delivered new works, almost on a weekly basis and was more than happy to see them released straight away. Unlike others, Staalplaat was never shy to release larger works, lumping various works together, such as the 9CD “Box Of Silk & Dogs”. Allowing free reign in editing, the 4LP box set ‘Tandoori Dog”, contained the LP of the same name, which saw only eight out of the…
