Ascenseur pour l'échafaud
*In process of stocking.* In 1957, Miles Davis is in Paris for an engagement at the ‘Club Saint-Germain’ and a wonderful concert at the Olympia Theatre. Once in Paris, Miles came into contact with many members of the modern existentialist cultural environment in the neighborhood of Saint-Germain-des-Près. These include the director Louis Malle who had just finished his first movie : ‘Ascenseur Pour L’échafaud’. Jean-Paul Rappeneau, a Jazz fan and Louis Malle’s assistant at the time, suggested as…
Un Témoin Dans la Ville
Barney Wilen's career took off in 1957. That year he won the Django Reinhardt Award and recorded the soundtrack to the film 'Ascenseur pour l'échafaud' with Miles Davis. In '59 he recorded the music for the film 'Les Liaisons Dangereuses' with Thelonious Monk and Art Blakey, and then composed the music for the film 'Un témoin dans la ville' directed by Edouard Molinaro. For this nocturnal tour through Paris, Barney Wilen is surrounded by the musicians who have been accompanying him for several w…

Bali
** First ever vinyl pressing, orange vinyl ** Bali is a 1970 movie directed by Ugo Liberatore with leading actors Laura Antonelli and John Steiner; the film belongs to those year's exotic/erotic popular genre, and benefits of a soundtrack composed and directed by pianist, composer and arranger Giorgio Gaslini, soon to be a collaborator of Dario Argento for the music of “Le Cinque Giornate” (1973) and “Profondo Rosso” (1975).The "Bali" soundtrack has two distinct souls. The first, corresponding t…

Nyarlathotep - A Tribute To Howard Phillips Lovecraft
'Nyarlathotep was an earthbound deity in the mythos of writer H. P. Lovecraft. Unlike the other gods in these stories, Nyarlathotep appears in humanoid form and can speak human languages. This being, as an abstract concept, provides a fitting name for an album that brings largely forgotten and mysterious music to human ears. Indeed, this album is a newly remastered reissue that was originally released in 1997 by the KADATH label, and gathers eight offerings of experimental underground music of t…
Green Wheels
Tip! *199 copies limited edition* Green Wheels is Merzbow in its most straightforward, most genuine, most uncontrolled and refined form. Originally released by the legendary US label Self Abuse Records in 1995 on CD and 5-inch vinyl record, both housed in a foil-lined cardboard box with the abstract and impressive art work created by the artist himself, which has become another of the fetishist objects of Merzbow and now incredibly hard to find. Like all of his work since the early nineties, Gre…
Rainbow Electronics
Tip! *199 copies limited edition* Originally released on CD in 1990 by Alchemy Records as part of the Good Alchemy Series, Rainbow Electronics marks the pinnacle of Merzbow's late 80’s noise phase. Selected and transformed from about 21 hours tape of primitive raw material recorded during three years (1987-1990) in 14 fragments lasting about 74 minutes, this monumental work is an aural trip through a cold plotted universe of intergalactic space ships and golden celestial bodies. Remastered in De…
The Way Ahead - Kwanza - The Magic of Ju-Ju, revisited
Allow me to expand on a much restated quote from Albert Ayler: "Coltrane was The Father, Pharoah was The Son, and I was...The Holy Ghost.” If we remain with the Christian iconography, that makes Archie Shepp, Simon Peter, or the Apostle Peter whom Jesus called the rock upon which he built his church. Christened by his tenure in the early 1960s with Cecil Taylor, Shepp was baptized into what we now call a modernist approach. In meeting Coltrane, a man always searching for a purity of sound, Shepp…
Music From The Withered Orange Tree
Originally released in the mid 80's on UK cassette label Bite Back!, this nearly lost gem finds new life 30 years later on Cocktail D'Amore Music. Steve has cobbled together a superbly melancholic electronic concept album. Wistful melodies often evoke sentiments of a lost childhood and hazy English mornings. Each song within remains untitled allowing full perceptive freedom as to what they all communicate, a language for the feelings that have no name. Untitled A1 - A6 leads one along intimate s…
Katatonia
*300 clopies limited edition. 2022 stock* "Obscure solo venture of Heinz Christian Wilp (founder of Der Schwarze Kanal, as well as ZU guitarrist and occasional member, as percussionist, of Das Synthetische Mischgewebe), which was active from 1984 to 1987. “Katatonia”, originally put out by italian cult label ADN (as the Zona Industriale reissue in this batch), is probably the release most people associate with the project, and an absolutely essential document of 80s tape culture that Narcolepsia…

** Limited edition housed in a die cut craft sleeve, flooded pocket, in printed inner sleeve, with insert ** Artistry was Sirone's first album as a leader, recorded in 1978, just after the split of the Revolutionary Ensemble.

Three pieces in the ‘L’art de toucher le clavecin’ series, with ‘thaes ofereode, thisses swa maeg’ for cello and voice, and ‘Plan and section of the same reservoir’ played by Trio Accanto.

Frogman
Tip! "Bloody spooky though. I hope the place don't fill up with goggle eyed weirdos now, wandering around and muttering."In 2015 I edited various pieces of music I had written on an EMS Synthi and a tape echo, into one hour long piece. I didn't know what to do with it. I knew Will (Goddard) from his Supreme Vagabond Craftsman records. I liked his writing style, always a bit twisted. I also knew that he wouldn't be put off by my atonal discordant Synthi burblings. So I asked him to write a sci-fi…
Paradise Pachinko
*200 copies limited release* Paradise Pachinko is an album by the Japanese noise musician Merzbow. It consists of raw material recorded on four-track cassette. The album is named after and depicts the Pachinko Tengoku pachinko parlor.
Antimonument
*In process of stocking. 300 copies limited edition* "This is probably one of the most industrial Merzbow's records that he ever made. For an album in transitional period between his early musique concrète/sound collage pieces and later harsh noise works that he's best known for, it's nothing surprising. Nevertheless fact remains that Antimonument sounds pretty different from any other of his records, but instead of explaining it by the former way, I'd rather see it as a very intentional artisti…
Vratya Southward
*In process of stocking. 200 copies limited edition* "It's actually surprising that this album ends up feeling quite a bit different in comparison to Enclosure, considering that they both have used the same source material, raw material from Ecobondage. This one is much more subdued, a series of industrial/musique concréte-like improv pieces evoking Nurse With Wound with its warbly, echoing, factory-like atmosphere, dominated by tape/vinyl scratches, speedups/slowdowns and homemade percussion fr…
Psychorazer
*In process of stocking. 200 copies limited edition* "An odd release that doesn't seem to follow any sort of a recognizable theme or singular approach to noise, just three random tracks pasted together. In the first track there's not much interesting variation within it. The second track is a cool Music for Films evoking electronic drone that's also 56 seconds long. The main course here is the third track, which is a massive beast of thick fuzz that has a very strange, "rattly" effect to it, ach…
