Autobahn
**2025 Stock. 180g translucent blue vinyl, Includes full-size 12-page booklet and picture inner sleeve.** The fourth studio album by the German electronic band. It was the band's first album to fully embrace the repetitive electronic sound they would become known for, although organic instruments still remained part of their sonic palette, and was inspired by the titular German highway system."Though they'd recorded three previous albums, Kraftwerk's modern pop legacy starts with the sounds of a…
Trans-Europe Express
**180g clear vinyl, Includes full-size 12-page booklet and picture inner sleeve.** "Although Autobahn was a left-field masterpiece, Trans-Europe Express is often cited as perhaps the archetypal (and most accessible) Kraftwerk album. Melodic themes are repeated often and occasionally interwoven over deliberate, chugging beats, sometimes with manipulated vocals; the effect is mechanical yet hypnotic. Thematically, the record feels like parts of two different concept albums: one a meditation on the…
The Man-Machine
**180g translucent red vinyl, Includes full-size 12-page booklet and picture inner sleeve.** "The Man-Machine is closer to the sound and style that would define early new wave electro-pop - less minimalistic in its arrangements and more complex and danceable in its underlying rhythms. Like its predecessor, Trans-Europe Express, there is the feel of a divided concept album, with some songs devoted to science fiction-esque links between humans and technology, often with electronically processed vo…

* Edition of 225 * Originally released in 2007 on CD, this is the first time 'Incarceration By Abstraction' is pressed on vinyl.

Et Cetera 1971
This special limited edition contains the original Et Cetera's eponymous "silver cover" album originally released in 1971 on Global Records and another complete LP of recordings from the same recording session. This is an extraordinary album of weirdly trippy fusion that rides somewhere between instrumental Amon Duul II, Embryo and Dauners own earlier classic "Output". Full of ethnic (Arabic and Indian) spice with lots of the ethnic colour added by legendary guitar and sitar (et. al.) player Si…
Arispejal astisaró
Geometrik presents the reissue, remastered from the original tapes, of a classic Esplendor Geométrico. Arispejal astisaró was recorded between 1987 and 1989. an especially interesting period where the unique and characteristic rhytmic-industrial Esplendro Geométrico style, developed along the eighties, turns more minimalistic, schematic, cold and rough. Arispejal astisaró was firstly published in 1993 by the label Línea Alternativa in an edition of 500 copies. This new reissue is remastered from…
Celestial Vibration
Laraaji’s sublime zither improvisation, Celestial Vibrations (1978) forms nothing less than an early archetype for new age ambient music. It was originally issued as a privately pressed meditation aid and sold in limited numbers around NYC until, that is, Brian Eno famously stumbled across Laraaji doing his thing, and the rest, as they say, is laid out in the ambient history books. That fateful meeting with Brian Eno - interestingly enough in the same year that Eno compiled the definitive No W…
Tracks and Traces
A true Krautrock classic from the archives. In 1976 Brian Eno visited Harmonia's studio in the Weserbergland region of northern Germany to create what would become one of the most cherished artifacts of the genre on 'Tracks and Traces'. Harmonia comprised of multi instrumentalists Hans Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Mobius (also known as Cluster) with former Kraftwerk and Neu member, Michael Rother, and together with the like-minded synth maestro Eno they created twelve tracks of seminal instrumen…
Celestial Soul Portrait
Numero present a sincerely wide-eyed and wondrous collection of new age synth music prototypes imagined and created between 1975-1985 by Iasos. As the story goes, Iasos was inspired by "...the infinitely numbered harmonies transmitted by Vista, a benevolent being from a distant dimension..." Iasos broke ground for a new age of electronic sound manipulation. His was pioneering work—done from a bohemian boat-slip home office—on some of the first commercially available synthesizers and, on stage, i…

Every song conjures up its own time and place, from the quiet pa…
Irrlicht
Irrlicht is the solo debut album from Klaus Schulze (originally released in 1972) and is an absolute masterpiece in cosmic, space music. Schulze omitted the use of synthetics for this recording, relying on organ with various electronic effects to produce an absolutely mesmerizing and minimalist body of sounds that transform the listener into a total abstracted world full of mysteries within its almost never-ending spiral. With no electronic pulse and rhythms, just a gloomy and distorted a…
