Early Electronic Works
Prisma Records is proud to present the first release dedicated to the music by the late Norwegian experimental composer and electronic music pioneer, Sigurd Berge (1929-2002). This release shows some of Berge`s earliest experiments with tape-machines and early synthesizers and is taken from three reels found in the Henie Onstad Art Centre music archives in 2009. The reason why these tapes are located here are probably because Berge worked for several years at the Norwegian Studio for Elec…
Elektrofoni: Works For Micro Intervallic Guitar 1965-1978
restocked...AWESOME REISSUE! Elektrofoni is a 3CD / 1DVD box-set which for the first time presents the ground-breaking works by Norwegian experimental composer, guitarist and micro-tonal music pioneer Bjørn Fongaard (1919-1980). The box-set is produced by Lars Mørch Finborud og Lasse Marhaug of Prisma Records. The seeds to the Elektrofoni box-set began when Lasse Marhaug a few years ago found a copy of the old Electronic Music From Norway LP compilation at a second-hand record store in St…
Eucalypse
The Tasmanian Blue Gum tree, Eucalyptus globulus, is native to Tasmania and southern Australia. Eucalyptus trees are uniquely suited to the varied ecologies of Australia, and there is no other continent more closely associated with one genus of tree. Its leaves are the food of choice of the koala, and its flowers attract bees and hummingbirds. Out of approximately 300 identified species, Blue Gums are now the eucalyptus most frequently found in other parts of the world. Throughout the tro…
Ekhnatòn - Ricerca Italiana Semplice Numero Uno
This compilation, originally released in 1984 as a vinyl LP by Multiple Configuration in collaboration with the legendary ADN label, is finally available again in a completely remastered CD version. "Ekhnaton" collects tracks recorded by the most daring and remarkable bands that were active in the experimental Italian scene during those years. "Simple Italian Research Vol. 1" was (and still is) the subtitle of an album that includes two tracks from each of the following bands: Maze 1066, Tasaday…
Implosione tra le pieghe dell\'anima
A sensational CD release of an awesome tape (originally published by Multiple Configuration) that includes live tracks recorded between 1983/1984 and comes in a completely remastered edition. Tasaday are a "cult" band active since the early Eighties. Born from the merging of Die Form and Nulla Iperreale, they are probably the most eclectic and groundbreaking representative of an Italian experimental scene that used to blend elements of rock, noise, experimental and industrial music with great co…
Aprirsi nel silenzio
Finally restocked, very last copies around...Just say the Hystory of the industrial avantgarde in Italy, since 1981 - Originally recorded in 1984, tasaday's aprirsi nel silenzio (do bloom in the silence) was reissued by wallace records in 2000. The genre of this album: underground classical. Technically, it seems like tasaday wrote this album as a soundtrack to a really bad nightmare, so anguished that the album would probably fit well with a viewing of eraserhead. To create this, they play a mi…

Disasters of self
I've known Joe for close to 15 years - his audio output for a few more. His composition techniques, recording and editing methods, and persistent refinement and redefining of his aural goals has helped to define a body of work that I firmly believe only few artists could hope to match. After a handful of releases on C.I.P., ranging from full-length CD to one-sided 7, my resolve solidified that Joe was a contemporary artist whose work deserved the focus, breadth, and depth of a multiple LP…
Galiola - Works For Radio, 1967- 2000
Over the last 40 years, Serbian radio-art composer and film director Arsenije Jovanović has developed a deeply personal style of sound art for radio broadcast. His compositions are imbued with natural environments and human-centered activities. They feel rooted in place - whether real, imaginary, remembered or dreamed. Weaving voices, instruments, field recordings and manipulated sound, Jovanović creates vivid narratives without a story. He takes full advantage of sound’s capability for seamles…
Jade Warrior
** Remastered, 180gr, their legendary debut LP from 1971** Jade Warrior's first album following Tony Duhig and Jon Field's emergence out of the psychedelic July captures them abandoning the best of that band's whimsical moodiness in favor of a symphonic spirituality epitomized from the outset by the soaring guitars that ecstatically slice through the opening "Traveller." Reminiscent, in places, of a less-precious successor to Quintessence and the Incredible String Band in that moods and esoteric…
Released
The outrageous British packaging of Jade Warrior's Released was restricted while retaining almost all of its luxurious quality. The cover itself is a single cover, depicting virtually the same front and back as the British release. The Vertigo logo was transferred to the left upper corner, while the freecoming space now had a caption ''including poster''. Indeed, a poster was added. This was an exact copy of the 6-part fold-out board used in Britain, but of course on ''normal'' thin paper.
Elastic Rock
A beautifully judged and played jazz-rock album, 'Elastic Rock' marked the beginning of a series of intricate and experimental fusion albums for the group's leader, trumpet-player Ian Carr. As did Soft Machine, Nucleus developed from a jazz-orientated outfit into a more progressive, fusion-based collective(in later years the group would come to be known as 'Ian Carr & Nucleus) with later albums, such as 1976's 'Alley Cat', adding electronics to the already eclectic brew. However, their deb…
Ouvre Disintegrale
Alga Marghen presents one of the most impressive sound poetry anthologies ever published, introducing you to the sound works of the Nouveau Realiste artist François Dufrene. His work, along with that of Gil J. Wolman and Brion Gysin, was a strong influence for experimental poets like Henri Chopin, Bernard Heidsieck and Ake Hodell. Previously issued in 2007 as a 4LP box set, this first edition on CD also includes "Crirythme pour Tinguely" as bonus track.
François Dufrene could be considered the y…
Deux pipes
In the past few years alga marghen successfully released on CD some of Anton Bruhin more experimental works. 'InOut', 'Rotomotor' and the CD version of his first LP masterpiece from 1969 'Vom goldabfischer', made many of you become familiar with the eccentric creations of this obscure Swiss artist. But for this new release alga marghen decided to concentrate on Anton Bruhin favorite instrument, the jews harp.
Included in this LP record are six breathtaking jews harp pieces of pure genius. On Si…
Il divano dell'Orecchio
Mindblowing box! this is the only authorized reissue of all Walter Marchetti original recordings previously released by Cramps Records. A 5LP box set including "La caccia", In terram utopicam", "Per la sete dell'orecchio", "Natura morta" and "Vandalia". The most amazing thing about music is its exterior aspect. High, vertical, translucent, almost turgid, maybe a bit too monolithic. One should, in any case, give a lot of attention to the large number of interstices which lead to the centre of the…

Experimental Films (1943-1959)
"From the early 1940's until her death in 1961, Maya Deren evoked and exemplified the American avant-garde movement virtually by herself. Her first film, Meshes Of The Afternoon, set the tone for the decade and linked the movement to the older European avant-garde films of Cocteau and Bunuel". -- Cecil Starr, The New York Times. "Intensely personal, symbolic and surreal films that reveal her deepest, darkest fantasies. She's Fellini and Bergman wrapped in one gloriously possessed body. Watching …
