The Human Centipede OST
* Edition of 300 copies, gatefolfd cover, yellow vinyl * Ten electro-acoustic pearls drawing the ear’s eye into richly illusive fractal patterns with heavily psychedelic effect, lurking in the low key and peripheral, spectral and metaphysical realms. “The Human Centipede” is a film conceived, produced and directed by Dutch director Tom Six, which tells the story of the wicked Doctor Heiter, a manic German surgeon who kidnaps three people with the aim of surgically sewing them together to form a …
Les Tontons Flingueurs
** 2021 Stock. Edition of 500 ** The music of the film Les Tontons Flingueurs, as well as that of James Bond, is recognizable from the first notes. A little ritornello that even manages to run through the heads of 21st century kids. Musicologists call monotheism the stylistic variations around a single musical theme that can be found in Les Tontons: on the banjo, during the "bourre pif" sessions, in gloria, in jazz, in blues or in Hully Gully. The soundtrack of Les Tontons Flingueurs seems, at f…

Captured on tape in Norway at the time the band was there with George Russel, a few months after the legendary Club7 recordings. Her…

It’s free jazz that’s laid back and cool, and yet hits like a right cross thrown by a pro. It’s got an old-school feel that brings out the nostalgia for the avant-garde 70s, when that particular phase of jazz’s evolution …

When it comes to music, time and geography can have a strange effect. Divisions form and dissolve. Things which were heard can be forgotten. Things which were not are often remembered. As many of us know, this is increasingly the effect of the reissue market, with its radical reappraisals for history, pulling the lost and o…
Jila - Save ! Mon. - The Imaginary Suite
**Original 1979 vinyl edition of the album. Few copies available. Sealed copies** A post-free masterwork, recorded in Milan in 1978. This is an extraordinary encounter between George Lewis's electronically modified trombone and the flute, alto sax and bass clarinet played by Douglas Ewart, a giant of impro jazz, often at Lewis's side. Both George Lewis and Douglas Ewart create arresting, complex music here, in ways that powerfully contrast and powerfully pull together. The two are prodigious mus…

Memory Game
* CD in 6-panel wallet, designed by Denise Burt, including a booklet with lyrics and liner notes by the composer * Memory Game is both a look back at a pivotal point in Meredith Monk’s storied career, and a richly layered portrait of how vocal music, under the guidance of an indefatigable master, can play with our expectations in poignant and compelling ways.

Nuestra Soledad / Vera
* 2021 Stock* It was—and is—almost impossible to categorize Vera Sienra’s musical style, but we’ll try: wistful songs with the world-weariness of Fado, and the pulsating sadness of the bossa nova. Her powerful and unique tone of voice, plus the softness of her guitar, have always been an unmistakable trademark. Listening to the songs of Vera’s debut album (from 1969), few people believed that those mature melodies were created by the beautiful and timid blonde who could be seen on their black & …
Shin Joong Hyun & Yup Juns

Since I was so unpleasant and dissatisfied [in my career], I told myself, ‘Ok, fine, I am just a yupjun,’ and named my band with a rebellious attitude.” He began by renting a room at Seoul’s Tower Hotel to serve as a creative base fo…
