Reissues
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.
Tranquility
Limited edition first pressing comes in a gatefold sleeve and includes a 32 page scrapbook & bonus 7" single. 180 gram high quality pressing. 1977: In the middle of the era of punk groups, up-tempo music, high-energy rock and a mini rock-'n-roll revival, a record with the cheeky title Tranquility by the group Dutch Treat has come onto the market. A record - as the title suggests - that exudes tranquility. The record is a serious product by five of Holland's best-known and most-talented studio m…
白い恋人たち = 13 Jours En France (Original Soundtrack Recording)
A masterpiece of film music following "A Man and A Woman" by the tag team of Claude Lelouch and Francis Ray. This is an artistic documentary film that only features footage of the Winter Olympics held in Grenoble, France, and Francis Ray's brilliant music. The performances by the actual star athletes of the time and the astonishing talent of Francis Ray, which can be described as a French soundtrack, make this a masterpiece. The theme song "White Lovers" was produced with Japanese lyrics and cov…

Lilac Angels
Lilac Angels was a German krautrock band active in the seventies. Made up of friends of NEU! and La Dusseldorf frontman Klaus Dinger, who also co-produced and their debut album, released on his record label 'Dingerland'. However, it was a relative commercial failure and Dinger had pressed three times as many copies as he meant to. Dinger became bankrupt and as a result founded La Dusseldorf in a last gasp attempt at succes. La D. got #3 on the German music charts for their debut single and Lilac…
Norman Feels
Little is known about Norman Feels…but we do know that he was an underground soul sensation in the 1970s. He released two classic albums on Just Sunshine Records (the label that was also responsible for putting out milestone recordings by artists like Betty Davis, Karen Dalton and Arica). Over the years, Norman’s songs have been sampled by renowned acts from the likes of Ghostface Killah, Nas and Kanye West. The sound his songs emit reminds of the classic soul coming out of New Jersey at the tim…
Xylowave 2010 / Amplifaction II
The Haters are a noise and conceptual art troupe from the US, headed by GX Jupitter-Larsen. Founded in 1979, they are one of the earliest and best-known acts in the modern noise scene. Hal Hutchinson (Pollutive Static) has previously released several of his scrap metal sound recordings on labels such as Freak Animal Records, Unrest Productions, and in the last couple of years, he has moved to incorporate analogue synthesizers, field recordings and other elements into his work. Here, Hal presents…
Total Space
Although MPS was known for his studio and brilliant recording technique, Rolf Kühn decided not to record his albums in the studio in the Black Forest. At MPS, Rolf Kühn was allowed free rein to choose the team for the recordings and so he decided to get Wolfgang Hirschmann on board, one of the most interesting sound engineers in jazz at that time. Together with him and seven other musicians, “Total Space” was recorded in January 1975 in the Cornet Studios in the south of Cologne, Germany. Having…
Blau
** 500 copies. Limited 50th Anniversary Edition: embossed, reverse board, hand numbered, limited edition red vinyl ** On the red album, Conrad Schnitzler laid down the direction his musical artistry would take. The blue album (Blau) offered confirmation of his intent. Maybe the Rot and Blau tracks were recorded in the same session. The structure, sound, and timbre of both LPs are so similar as to suggest that this was the case. Far more important than this historical pedantry is the fact that Sc…
My Solid Ground
My Solid Ground were a German progressive rock band active in the 1970s. This obscure krautrock album called “My Solid Ground” from 1971 has long been considered a classic of the genre. The first track, the 13-minute ‘Dirty Yellow Mist’, certainly lives up to its reputation as the group embark on a dark space rock journey. It sounds like a mixture of psychedelic rock and progressive rock. With lots of long keyboard tones, a crunchy guitar riff, some acid guitar sounds and distorted chanting as w…
Poder Del Alma II
Impossible to find second album by this band from Nicaragua, 1975. A cool mix of Latin funk, jazz, salsa and psychedelic grooves. Including some of their most sought after tracks like “Bacanal’ 76”, “Mimo” or the antiracist statement “La Conga de las Dos Razas”. After recording their first LP in Guatemala, Nica supergroup Poder del Alma travelled to Costa Rica to register their second album. This time the recording studio and equipment (including Mini-Moog) were better and the band featured a ne…

If I Had a Pair of Wings: Jamaican Doo Wop, Vol. 3
A third and final volume of Jamaican doo wop & R&B records taken from the late 50s and early 60s. These records represent a period in which sound-systems were beginning to dominate the island, with Duke Reid and Sir Coxsone Dodd stepping up their rivalry by beginning to make and release their own records rather than rely on US imports for use in their dances. Many of these records are definitely more-or-less imitations of the American records, as the uniquely Jamaican ska sound was yet to take h…
Steppin' Out With The Athenians
The most popular and productive line-up of The Athenians beat group came together in Edinburgh in late 1963 and comprised Rick Alcorn (Bass), Ally Black (Guitar), Keith Henderson (Guitar), Arthur Mackey (Drums) and Ian Orr (Vocals). After a deep delve into the catalogues of Sue, Chess, Atlantic, Motown etc. a pretty sassy outfit became the exponents of some very acceptable R&B/ Rock. Having now acquired a fan club, a manager and a large following, the band were playing seven nights a week, two o…
