Casse-tête
*2025 stock* This reissue brings to listeners of concrete and electroacoustic musics and to all those with deep ears a fleuron of Canadian auto production.

Soil (30th Anniversary Edition) 3LP
Deluxe 3LP set. Terre Thaemlitz's Soil receives a timely reissue, returning one of the most challenging and prescient albums of the 1990s to circulation. Originally released in 1995 as the seventh installment in Instinct Records' "Instinct Ambient" series, the album represented Thaemlitz's deliberate assault on the contradictions he perceived within the contemporary ambient movement. When Thaemlitz signed with Greenwich Village's Instinct imprint, the label assumed he would be "another Moby," pr…
Music For Organic Performance
New Forces presents Kjostad's Music For Organic Performance. These six new recordings emerged from solitary performances conducted on-location in northern Minnesota. An attempt to rethink the collection of "source sounds" and invite the listener into moments that would be otherwise inaccessible. Electronics and other machines were introduced later in the process, a form of synthesis that added additional depth and contradiction to the original recordings. Listeners will feel the edges of glaciat…
Warlord
Warlord is the latest full-length album from Kjostad, the follow up to last year's Extinctionist released on Chondritic Sound. This is the evolution of Kjostad's approach in every aspect, an attempt to distill 7 years of development into the project's finest work yet. The place-based field recordings are more intimate. The environmental explorations are more harrowing. Hissing tape loops collide with pulsing electronics. The noise clatters, clangs, and grinds across six tracks that investigate a…

Time of the Last Persecution
Time of the Last Persecution is the second studio album by English singer-songwriter Bill Fay, released in 1971 by Deram Records. Following the baroque pop tendencies of his self-titled debut, Fay stripped away the orchestral arrangements for a darker, more intimate vision that would prove to be his most enduring work. Proper Records is proud to present this apocalyptic folk-rock masterpiece on 180g vinyl. Written and recorded during a time when Fay was obsessing over the Biblical books of Danie…
Bill Fay
Enigmatic UK-based singer and pianist Bill Fay's dark and haunting work gained him a strong cult following in the late 60s and early 70s. He released two albums on the Deram label in the early 70s and promptly disappeared into relative obscurity for 30+ years. In the last decade, those albums have finally begun to get the recognition they deserve, and Proper Records is proud to bring them back into circulation on 180g vinyl. First up is his self-titled 13-track debut from 1970, an absolute class…
