Sado Vision
*300 copies limited edition* Sado Vision was a very obsure, S/M & fetishist industrial project from Italy. Clearly inspired by erotic transgressions they attracted the attention of admirers of the most radical and provocative industrial sound. Leded by the Milanese Luca Leuca (aka Leucon) and the unidentified Reverend K, Sado-Vision transformed the concept of studio recording, giving life to real performances in which create musical compositions. Thanks to the crazy attitude of Anjela Water, who…
Violent For Being Sexually Desired
*2024 reprint* Violent For Being Sexually Desired is the debut album by Scopophilia released in late 2021.

Aith Ochnal, Rungholter Tänze, Zweites Buch
2024 Stock. ** 1000 hand-numbered copies, it comes with 4-page booklet ** Mechthild Von Leusch (aka Werkbund) this album should be viewed not as a collection of tracks, but as a mood album segmented into nearly a dozen pieces. It opens with a sombre spoken piece in German which evolves into a soaring harmonic 'vocal' piece, presumably using a Mellotron or similar, called "Legenden Des Windes". This is by far the least interesting piece on the entire album. Next comes "Rungholter Tanz 12", the fi…
Travelon Gamelon: Music For Bicycles
2024 stock. This early (1982) project from Arizona “Audio Artist” Richard Lerman presents musical composition performed with bicycles. Lerman explains: “A gamelan orchestra is a large group of percussive instruments, usually metallic, from SE Asia. In fact, the sound of such a group is not unlike the timbre of amplified bicycles.” With such an idea, he embarks on a project that captures the amplified sounds of moving bicycles in harmonious rhythms creating songs. Liner notes include detailed inf…

No Blues (The Complete Hopbine '65)
“He said ‘who the fuck are you?” so I said, “I’m the bass player”. And all he said was “Well, we’ll see about that, won’t we?” When Tubby Hayes arrived at the Hopbine, Wembley’s popular jazz pub, one evening in the spring of 1965, his career was in a state of flux; still topping polls and casting an impressive shadow over the British jazz scene, he nevertheless remained frustrated. The elongated free-flights of John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins now held his fascination and although actively search…

Confield
*2024 stock* "With Confield, Sean Booth and Rob Brown largely abandoned the warm ambient sounds of their earlier works such as Amber and Tri Repetae in favour of more chaotic and abstract sound palettes and methods of composition that they had been pursuing with LP5, EP7, and Peel Session 2. Confield saw the experimental use of computer programs, specifically Max/MSP, to form the basis of songs instead of stand-alone synthesizers. According to Booth, "Most of Confield came out of experiments wit…
Hoyo
The long-awaited LP reissue of the avant-garde pop band Noizunzuri, acclaimed as the Japanese Neu!, is here.

Now, in a landmark publicat…
