Tránsitos Sónicos - Música electrónica y para cinta de compositores peruanos (1964-1984)
Tip! This compilation offers a first overview of the early works of electronic and tape music created by Peruvians between 1964 and 1984. This period marks a technical and aesthetic evolution that allows us to understand the development of electronic music in the Peruvian context, from an initially internationalist model to a more situaded one. The first phase occurs in the 1960s, when many composers migrated outside Peru in search of advanced training and access to knowledge and infrastructure …
Hell Bank Note (1993 - 1995)
Burning Love Jumpsuit were an Underground Irish band of movie obsessive shut ins who had access to a computer. They were active between 1991 – 2002. A three-piece of proto-edgelords, (D.F. Dresden, Smiley, J. Bassetti) Burning Love Jumpsuit jammed and sampled their way to notoriety in the 1990s, making experimental music that was equal parts thought-provoking funk and stroke-inducing gunk.

Caetano Veloso (Irene)
*2024 repress* Lilith Records present a reissue of Caetano Veloso's Caetano Veloso (Irene), originally issued in 1969. Although Veloso had already been thrown in jail once for his criticism of Brazil's military regime, he continued to speak out against it on Caetano Veloso (Irene), with tracks like Irene, (about a machine gun-toting outlaw celebrated by the left). No wonder he would soon find himself in political exile in the UK. The general tone of the album is in keeping with its dire message …
Four Organs/Phase Patterns
** 2024 Repress ** Steve Reich remains one of the most important figures in 20th century music. Though he studied at the prestigious arts institutions Julliard and Mills College, by the mid-1960s Reich set about dismantling the very orthodoxy that he had been trained in. Forming a new musical language based on repetitive processes, Reich became established as part of the so-called "Big Four" of New York minimalists (along with La Monte Young, Terry Riley and Philip Glass). Reich's influence can …
If You Can't Wander The Waffle Wonder In Drizzle
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "On his new album 'If You Can't Wander The Waffle, Wonder I Drizzle', Joshua Burkett takes hushed conversation and quietens them further. Listening to it is like reading under a blanket by candlelight. Yet an eerie buzz and hum cloaks the album, a lonesome spirit that's never comfortable or comforting.
Burkett is a pioneer of free folk alongside Tower Recordings, Dredd Foole, and Sunburned Hand Of The Man. This 'New Weird America' haze from from the early…
Uncle Bobby's New Record
*2024 stock. 300 coipes limited edition* "If there was ever an outsider folk record that truly had it all, here it is! This LP from 1974 is impossible to compare with any other LP, but at the same time, can be compared to some of the most visionary folk LPs ever! Picture a combination of early Bob Dylan, Skip Spence, the first Gordon Bok LP, Tim Buckley, Lou Reed, Peter Grudzien, Ernest Stoneman, Daniel Johnson, Richard & Mimi Farina, Chris Smither, and Phil Ochs. But is a record all its own, wi…

New Jazz In Japan
Gatefold packaging. Nobuo "Hara," whose real name is Nobuo Tsukahara, is a Japanese saxophonist who became known in 1951 with his big band, the Sharp & Flats.

The first record bringing together the two musicians is a live recorded in 1967 during the…
Into The Heaven
Gatefold packaging. Le Tres Jazz Club can't really say that Japanese jazzmen benefit (not justify in fact) from a great international fame. However, trumpet player Terumasa Hino is an exception, undoubtedly because since the '70s he has collaborated with numerous American musicians: Gary Burton, Roy Haynes, Herbie Hancock -- on Into the Heaven, which was released in 1970, Terumasa Hino is surrounded by the same musicians as on Hi- Nology (LTJC 016LP), released a year earlier: his brother Motohik…

Rythmes Contemporains

Rock Rendez Vous: Música Moderna Portuguesa 1985-1986
The seductive sounds of Portugal swing to Dark Entries on Rock Rendez Vous: Música Moderna Portuguesa 1985-1986, a compilation of vintage Iberian synth, wave, and postpunk gems. The legendary club Rock Rendez Vous (RRV) opened its doors in Lisbon in 1980, heralding a new era in the Portuguese underground. Although touring acts like Killing Joke, Danse Society, or Echo & the Bunnymen graced its stage, RRV more vitally served as ground zero for a new generation of Portuguese bands, one simultaneou…
Papillon

Jazz Mood
*2024 repress* A multi-instrumentalist who reconfigured jazz many times during his long career, Yusef Lateef came to prominence in the late 1950s, after having toured with Dizzy Gillespie. Jazz Mood dates from 1957, when his Quintet had some of Detroit's finest, including Alice Coltrane's brother Ernest Farrow on bass and future Jazz Messengers Curtis Fuller on trombone. The use of an argol on 'Metaphor' and a rabat and finger cymbals on 'Morning' point to Lateef's Islamic grounding and his beli…
Blue Piccolo
*2024 stock* A trumpeter who played in the Charles Mingus Group and other groups. This album is somewhat unique in the Whynot catalog, which is lined with works overflowing with blackness. The bop style is orthodox, but the one-horn style of playing original compositions is truly poignant. Cecil Mcbee and drummer Steve McCall join the band.
