Studio album from Bamako-based Tuareg band Amanar de Kidal. "Kel Tamasheq” is years in the making, a self produced DIY album, recorded in the small studios of the Malian capital over the past few years. Carrying on in the tradition of assouf, the Northern Malian style of Tuareg guitar popularized by artists like Tinariwen, Amanar pushes the sound forward into tight upbeat groove and kinetic rhythms, reflecting the rich diversity of Mali and the energy of the capital. The band takes its name from…

Originally released in November 2024 as a physical only, limited edition physical boxset, Swans’ Live Rope is now being made on CD at retail. A document of the band’s US/EU 2023-24 live tours, this material laid the blueprint for the band’s most recent studio album, Birthing, released May 2025. Spanning almost 3 hours of trance-inducing melodies that morph into dense walls of sound, the album is anchored by Gira’s unmistakable vocals and crafted with longtime collaborators on lap steel, bass, Me…

Elis & Tom is a bossa nova album, released in 1974, recorded by Brazilian singer Elis Regina and singer-songwriter Antônio Carlos Jobim. Recorded over a 16-day period at MGM Studios in Los Angeles, California, the album was an old wish of Regina, who always wanted to record a full album of Jobim's songs with him. This finally came true in 1974, when Elis was celebrating her 10th anniversary as an artist of Philips Records. The label approved the project as a gift for her.

Habibi Funk’s new sister label Audible Beauty Records second release: A landmark collection retelling the untold story of Malaysian jazz featuring 9 songs from the legendary composer, arranger and trumpet player Johari Salleh. Salleh played a crucial role in shaping the sound of modern Malaysian music across radio, television, film and live performance and has composed dozens of popular songs in his decades long career. His personal musical passion always was jazz, reflected in this deep selecti…

The album “St. John Green” is the only release by the American band of the same name, and is regarded as a minor cult classic of 1960s psychedelia. It was released in 1968 by the small label Flick-disc. Released at the height of the flower power era, the record perfectly captures the musical and cultural atmosphere of the late 1960s. The album blends various elements typical of psychedelia with sonic experimentation, garage lysergic influences and a free-spirited approach to songwriting.

*2026 repress* 'Persistent Repetition Of Phrases' success comes from the attention it pays to the function of 'the loop', not only as a narrative ordering system in modern music, but as a means by which the brain itself recalls and interprets information; it's as old as recorded sound itself, but in this context the repetition of small shards of auditory information becomes an elegy to fading memory and the worn-out synapses of old age. The track titles offer signposts through Kirby's labyrinth …

Yara Asmar’s new album, “everyone I love is sleeping and I love them so so much”, presents 11 pieces recorded over the past year between the small town of Alfred in upstate New York and Beirut. These sometimes fragile and tentative sound sketches reflect the times as Yara steps out, as if onto ice, into a new life on a new continent. She works with unfamiliar instruments, new materials and new sounds to build on her intimate style; homemade mechanical music boxes and a personal archive of family…

*2026 repress* 1973s brilliant Celestial Ocean, by the legendary Swiss krautrock band Brainticket, is a concept album that details an ancient pharoahs journey into the afterlife (substitute the word "journey" for "trip" and youll get what they were driving at). However, Brainticket were not mere products of their time, they explored some truly compelling musical territory and produced a superlative blanket of sound-featuring a pioneering mix of early synthesizers, flute, zither, sitar, and male …

*2026 repress* Joao Gilberto's self titled third album, is the fruit of the collaboration between Gilberto and the great composer and arranger Antonio Carlos Jobim and Walter Wanderley and his ensemble. This is one of the greatest pieces of work in the field of Brazilian music. Gilberto's delicate singing moves on top of extremely subtle, elegant orchestral arrangements of various songs from the classic repertoire, "Samba da Minha Terra" and "Saudade da Bahia" (Dorival Caymmi), "O Barquinho" (Ro…

*2026 repress* Brazilian singer, poet, guitarist Joao Gilberto made his 1959 debut with the now legendary LP, 'Chega de Saudade', a new sound and acknowledge as the first bossa nova album, a genre that swept the world in popularity and taken up by such artists as Stan Getz, Charly Byrd, Astrud Gilberto, Frank Sinatra, Quincy Jones, and countless others. Presented here is essentially a themed compilation of some of his best songs, including tracks from his acclaimed debut LP, 'Chega de Saudade'.

Mystery Hearsay / Mike Honeycutt was a major node of the 80s cassette culture network, his radio program in Memphis TN being a touchstone for home taping artists of a similar caliber to Don Campau‘s “No Pigeonholes”, RRRadio, or Schimpfluch’s “Psychic Rally”, all of which featured MH as an active participant. He also collaborated and traded extensively with the likes of Zan Hoffman (Larb), Minóy (Life Of Work), Swinebolt 45, and Agog. Audio and video works by Mystery Hearsay were distributed pri…

"Drift was a relatively short-lived project created by Gabriele  Giuliani. Better known through his notorious nom de plume, Dead Body Love. Within the course of only a few short years, Drift released a dozen sought after releases on such legendary imprints as Slaughter, Old Europa Cafe, SSSM, Harmonie, and his own Less Than Zero, before fading behind the curtains Exile was not only the debut release by Drift, but also the beginning to a trilogy of cassettes released on Slaughter Productions. It …

"Second in the trilogy of Drift albums released on SlaughterProductions, The Beyond takes on a minimal yet darker approach, sheding the dense cavernous aspect of the preceding album, Exile. Replaced, is a more introspective Autumnal Dark Ambient style, which will become Drift's trademark on following releases. However, Gabrielle Giuliani never abandons the isolationist atmosphere he previously established. The result is a masterwork in Ambient Industrial Noise.  Winds howl, rain soaked leaves ar…

"On Earthquake, the third and final cassette released on Slaughter Productions, Drift takes on a slightly different angle to the previous  two cassettes. Where as The Beyond and Exile were firmly planted in pitch black ambient territory, the desolation on Earthquake is Saharan. Bright, Sirocco, and sun scorched. Afterall, who said Dark Ambient needs to be cold? In a sense, the listener is transported to an abandoned archaeogical dig while faint middle eastern tones waver in and out of the surfac…

A collection of previously unreleased material (between '75 & '90) by Enno Velthuys.Compiled by Hessel Veldman.

On Clandestine Anticipation, Krisma leave Italo-disco behind for a humid, video‑age dystopia, nine songs where synthetic funk, proto‑industrial atmosphere, and tropical mirages collide into one of the strangest Italian pop artefacts of the early 80s.

It seems like it was only a few months ago that Jim O’Rourke changed everything with the release of the incredible Eureka. And if you actually think that, then by George, you’re the Rip van Winkle of 90s rock! It hasn’t even been a few months since Jim’s twin comebacks The Visitor and Simple Songs, his most recent albums in the mold of his classic “pop music” trilogy of Bad Timing, Eureka, and Insignificance. Those two are thirteen and seven years behind us already! O’Rourke freak or not, if you…

** Deluxe matte laminate gatefold sleeve and polylined paper inner sleeve ** Paris, August 1969. Sunny Murray books a studio for a single afternoon and walks in with thirteen musicians - among them three members of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, the working sextet built around Archie Shepp, and the singer Jeanne Lee. What they cut that day, Hommage To Africa, is one of the high-water marks of the legendary BYG Actuel catalogue, and one of the warmest and least abrasive records the free jazz moveme…

Caught at the exact moment the young trumpeter steps fully into his own. Recorded July 2, 1962, at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, released in 1963 on Impulse!, this is Hubbard with technique to burn but warmth to match - every line sculpted, every phrase rhythmically alive. Around him a ridiculous cast: John Gilmore (yes, the Sun Ra tenor man) shadowing Hubbard's lines with that crooked, unmistakable tone, Curtis Fuller and Tommy Flanagan filling out the harmony, Art Davis and Louis Hayes locking dow…

10" coloured vinyl edition. Ten tracks drawn from the 1954-56 Pacific Jazz sessions. Chet Baker Sings is a record that arrived too early for its own audience. In 1954 a twenty-four-year-old trumpet player set down his horn, leaned close to the microphone, and sang as if confiding something he wasn't sure he wanted overheard. What the era received as a flaw - a voice too soft, too high, too undefended for a man - is exactly what now sounds like the future turning up ahead of schedule. There is al…

Harold Ousley’s The Kid! is a superb example of early-1970s soul-jazz and jazz-funk, putting the spotlight on the saxophonist’s distinctive tone and commanding presence. From the first notes, the album radiates energy and character, marrying dynamic phrasing with a deeply confident sense of swing. The record thrives on infectious grooves, a tightly locked rhythm section, and spirited improvisation that keeps the music moving at every turn. Seamlessly blending the worlds of jazz, funk, and soul, …

In the years after independence, Tunisia made an unlikely bet: tourism. Beach resorts rose along the coast, each one trying to outshine the next, and each one needing a band to entertain their guests. A whole generation of musicians grew up on those hotel stages - sharing bills with James Brown, Claude François and the Mingus Dynasty - and what came out of it was a small revolution. Funk played on Tunisian instruments. Disco with an oud in it. Reggae carried back from the island of Kerkennah. A …

Moses Yoofee Trio, the Berlin group of pianist Moses Yoofee, drummer Noah Fürbringer and bassist Roman Klobe, came up through clips of their jams posted online, which drew a following and led to the 2023 mini-album Ocean on LEITER and a German Jazz Prize for live act of the year. Their 2025 debut album proper, MYT, expanded the improvised concept with fuller arrangements, landed on year-end lists and a German Jazz Award nomination, and sent them touring through Asia, the US and Europe. Chasing L…

Bongo Joe and Sofa Records reissue the 1981 debut by Max Cilla, the Martinican flautist who spent his life restoring the bamboo flute of his island's hillsides to a music that had nearly forgotten it.

Princess Mononoke (1997) is set in a mythic late-medieval Japan of iron foundries and forest gods. The young prince Ashitaka, cursed while killing a boar god maddened by hatred, travels west and finds himself caught between the people stripping the forest and the wolf-raised girl San who defends it, a story Hayao Miyazaki refuses to resolve into simple sides. Joe Hisaishi's music met that scale with his grandest and grimmest writing for Miyazaki to that point. The film score, recorded with the T…

2026 Stock. Kiki's Delivery Service (1989), drawn from Eiko Kadono's children's novel, follows a thirteen-year-old witch who leaves home on the night of a full moon, settles in a European-looking seaside town with her cat Jiji, and turns the one thing she can do, fly, into a delivery business. It was the first Studio Ghibli film given an official release in the United States, carrying Hayao Miyazaki's unforced storytelling to an audience that had seen little like it. The score is by Joe Hisaishi…

The first time on any format for Pier Paolo Pasolini's controversial 1975 vision of the Marquis De Sade's 120 Days Of Sodom, featuring beautiful and discordant classical compositions, in stark contrast to the shocking and cruel events unfolding onscreen. Three weeks before the scandalous release of "Salò, or The 120 Days Of Sodom", Pasolini was brutally murdered in Ostia, Italy. In the wake of the tragedy, legendary composer Ennio Morricone wrote 'Addio a Pier Paolo Pasolini' (Goodbye to Pier Pa…

On Trio, Lowell Davidson explodes the piano tradition from the inside out, trading clustered storms, sudden lyric breaks and pregnant silence with Gary Peacock and Milford Graves in a one‑off 1965 session that still feels dangerously new.

On The Call, Henry Grimes refuses the “leader date as reward” narrative, stepping out as a co‑equal melodic force with Perry Robinson and Tom Price in a trio document where free jazz means deep listening, not just full‑bore blaze.

Big Tip! These three previously unreleased tracks reflect the cultural influences of a very young Riccardo Sinigaglia. In particular, the Anti-psychiatry movement founded by Ronald David Laing, author of the influential books The Politics of Experience and The Bird of Paradise. As well as Jung's theory of archetypes, a subject explored in depth in the writings of Elémire Zolla. The compositional processes of concrete music are fundamental, while the extensive use of fragments from other cultures…

On Timeless Records: From The Archives (1974–1991), Antal rethreads the Dutch label’s glory years into a double‑LP of modal and spiritual fire - from Pharoah Sanders to Art Blakey, Woody Shaw and beyond - built for dancers, diggers and late‑night headphones alike.

300 copies only. 2xLP Picture. Very, very broadly speaking, there are two kinds of Nurse With Wound albums: the sprawling, immersive, evolving drone-type recordings - think Soliloquy for Lilith, Salt Marie Celeste - and the wild, surreal freak-outs. A Sucked Orange is a prime example of the latter. Originally released by United Dairies at the end of the 1980s, A Sucked Orange has long been out of print, especially on vinyl. Infinite Fog is beyond happy to bring this singular work back as a 2LP p…

Tip! The Durutti Column are proud to revisit “Vini Reilly”, a release originally issued in 1989—a heartfelt homage to the legendary sound and creative imagination of Vini Reilly. The record distills atmosphere, elegance, and emotional clarity into music that feels both timeless and deeply personal. Across “Vini Reilly,” the album captures the essence of Vini’s distinctive musical language: shimmering guitar textures, luminous melodic shapes, and a sense of space that invites the listener to slow…

BBE Music’s celebrated J Jazz compilation series reaches its fifth and final volume in early 2026, culminating in a track list that maintains the exceptionally high standard first set with volume one back in 2018. This final volume features a selection of tracks that is as diverse as it is deep, reflecting the rich and varied Japanese jazz scene that spanned from the late 1960s to the late 1980s, a golden era of innovation and creativity. J Jazz volume 5 sees compilers Tony Higgins and Mike Pede…

"Watching a movie by Tati is a surprising experience; in his films, sound and music speak more than do words, overtaking the conventional discourse – and boredom – of adulthood. Hulot remains silent, or mumbles. Tati knows all about the noises of the modern world: beeps, rings, crackles, pneumatic drill, cars, mechanical, electrical and rubbery sounds, the high heels of secretaries and typewriters, factory noises, creaking doors, sighing chairs, machines and technical machines, franglais, vacuum…

Before Afrobeat, there was Highlife-Jazz and Afro-Soul. Highlife music, originally from Ghana and widely popular across West Africa, dominated the music scene in Lagos when Fela Kuti returned to the newly independent Nigeria in 1963. Fela had been studying trumpet at Trinity College of Music in London where he met drummer Tony Allen, who also joined him in new group Koola Lobitos as they sought to mix things up by introducing the sounds they had heard in the capital's jazz clubs. The music of Fe…

A seamless blend of the avant jazz of David Murray (sax) and Steve McCall (drums) with the powerful prose and cadence of Amiri Baraka! This first ever reissue of poet and social/political activist Amiri Baraka’s electric live 1982 beat poetry reading is newly remastered and includes a zine-style poetry insert and liner notes by David Murray!  “The poetry I want to write is oral by tradition, mass aimed as its fundamental functional motive. Black poetry, in its mainstream, is oracular, sermonic, …

Often credited as the father of multi-media theatre, Alwin Nikolais (1910-1993) took complete creative control over his productions - including cutting-edge approaches to lighting and costume that transformed human bodies into shifting sculptural shapes, while also composing wildly innovative electronic music as accompaniment. After initially experimenting with musique concrète and tape manipulation (as demonstrated on the 1959 LP Choreosonic Music of the New Dance Theatre of Alwin Nikolais) Nik…

To mark 50-years since a 22 year old Michael Gregory Jackson recorded his groundbreaking first release, "Clarity / Circle / Triangle / Square", recorded with the mind blowing group of his contemporaries Oliver Lake, David Murray and Leo Smith. This album is like no other I know, a new world, finding a perfect balance between multiple genres. Moved-By- Sound is very excited and honored to be involved in releasing the first reissue authorized by Michael Gregory Jackson since the original release i…
