Original US edition on FM of Gordon's 1986 eccentric first solo album featuring "Blue" Gene Tyranny, Arthur Russell, Ned Sublette, Peter Zummo, Richard Landry, and Tony Levin among others. With insert.
Konoma
Konoma by Takuro Okada is an evocative exploration of musical identity informed by Afro-American traditions and a Japanese artisanal spirit. With eight tracks that weave intricate guitar textures, this album reflects Okada’s meditation on cultural connection and the possibilities of stylistic fusion, pushing boundaries in contemporary instrumental music.
Musica Porosa
2004 release ** "The second CD, "Musica Porosa" features Karlheinz Stockhausen's son, Markus Stockhausen, now one of the most famous European jazz trumpeters, along with the talented clarinetist Tara Bouman. The seven sections that give life to the composition "Porosity" seek a trait d'union between the serial music of Stockhausen senior and the chamber jazz of the Ecm brand, especially in the fifth and sixth sections."
Haihara
Prolific Norwegian trumpeter and ECM veteran Arve Henriksen returns with Estonian guitarist/composer Robert Jürjendal in tow, matching his idiosyncratic shakuhachi-style melodic condensations with Jürjendal’s glassy electro-acoustic soundscapes and sonorous percussion. Fans of Jon Hassell & Brian Eno, Daniel Schmidt and Badalamenti, this one’s for you
Species-Appropriate Animal Husbandry
2025 stock ** "Very strong studio session recorded in June 2012. Free improvisation consisting of small sounds – whining, rustling, grumbling – produced by a bass clarinet (Koch, commanding techniques), electronics (Badrutt, mysterious), and percussion (Babel, excellent at playing hide-and-seek with the other two’s sounds). Seven tracks, one to ten minutes long, with plenty of enigmatic stuff going on and lots and lots of deep listening."
Totality
A luminous collaboration between Natural Information Society and Bitchin Bajas, Totality is a slow-burning suite of cosmic ambient ritual—blending jazz, drone, and natural resonance into a radiant whole.
Le Partage Des Eaux
2024 Stock. Minor signs of wear from long-time storage. ** André Ricros is the founder and director of the Agence des musiques traditionnelle d’Auvergne (the equivalent of our CMTRA); he is a specialist in collecting and also a musician and singer. He plays the cabrette, a kind of Auvergne bagpipe – with a softer sound, however, than that of its Celtic equivalents. It is his contribution that gives the basic colouring to this album recorded in Lyon 23 years ago.But the other musicians come from …
Brain Weather (The Story Of The Rosenbergs)
1992 release ** "The psychotic world of The Rosenberg family with violin music from the dentist, the shrink, the surgeon and other split personalities. A funny, typically nutty release by this internationally known troublemaker, instrument maker and violinist (not necessarily in that order). This is billed as `an opera perverse,' and includes Shelly Hirsch & Phil Minton."
Signs Remixed
2024 stock. In this album, legendary New York electronic music producer Hprizm (Antipop Consortium), also known as High Priest, reworks Gerald Cleaver’s acclaimed ’Signs’ (577 Records, 2020). Throughout, Hprizm expands the sonic boundaries of the original work through dream-like, transcendent electronic manipulations. Hprizm’s album is an innovative rework of Gerald Cleaver’s debut electronic project, building off of Cleaver’s long career as an accomplished Jazz percussionist.Born and raised in …
Placenta
*Limited edition "Placental Purple" color vinyl* Placenta is the fourth collection of broadly imaginative and highly collaborative Carlos Niño & Friends music released on International Anthem in the last four years. It is also the first new music to be released by Carlos Niño & Friends following the November 2023 release of André 3000’s New Blue Sun – an album which Carlos produced alongside André, while co-writing, co-creating/playing, and co-mixing every song. Placenta is announced on April 11…
Planet Q
Artists Kyoko Takenaka + Tomoki Sanders team with In Sheep’s Clothing Hi-Fi & Pure Person Press to release their breathtaking debut record as Planet Q.
Switched On Ra
To pour some out for one of their heroes, the cosmos’ own Sun Ra, Bitchin Bajas simply cut a slice of their own DNA and amplify it! Or something like that: they clearly vibe with Ra in hypno-symbiosis, setting the controls of their analog synths for the heart of Sun. Bonus mixtribute: a heartfelt doff to Queen Wendy C, sythnaut and another mother!
To Dream Is To Forget
Since its inception, producer and composer Joe Acheson has carefully developed Hidden Orchestra from a simple initial project concept of ‘an imagined orchestra’ into something that has flourished into a widespan musical universe of its own, that is truly unlike anything else.
Luz
Luz was produced in an unconventional way, with a sampler, MPC1000. Lorenzo Fringuello chose four musicians: Alessandro Bossi on bass, Daniele Cruccolini on drums, Alessandro De Florio on piano, Cesare Vincenti on trumpets. The four were left free to play on the basis of some musical cues and intuitions. Once the tracks were obtained, Fringuello sampled, cut, processed and recomposed them. The result is an album of seven tracks with a metropolitan funk-jazz sound.
Mouth=Maul=Betrayer
*In process of stocking. 2022 stock.* Part of the Radical Jewish Culture series put out by John Zorn's Tzadik label, Zeena Parkins' Mouth=Maul=Betrayer perhaps more than any other album lives up to the name of the series. This work is aggressive, energetic, intellectually complex, challenging, and highly structured. At times it reads like the soundtrack to a classic gangster film of the '40s -- the music is often not a stylistic match for that time period, but the feeling of violence and darknes…

II
Godtet is the brainchild of Australian Instrumentalist and producer Godriguez. Praised for his production on ‘The Great Mixtape’ for Sampa the Great. Godtet see’s Godriguez stepping back into the live format of production with his band plus Simon Mavin (Hiatus Kaiyote) & Ziggy Zeitgeist (30/70). After releasing the self-titled debut in late 2017 Godtet have quickly become a staple within the emerging Australian Jazz & Instrumental scene with adulation streaming in from all parts of the globe. Ho…
Datura
An excursion into the furthest reaches of wild, synthesizer driven abstraction, radical avant-gardism, and free improvisation - born from the fire and anarchism of punk - we're thrilled to have unearthed a handful of deadstock copies of the original pressing of Robert Aaron's debut LP, “Datura”, released in 1981 on his own Artichoke Records. It's a rare chance to grab one of the most singular artifacts to have emerged from the downtown NY No Wave scene, and a missing link that helps to rewrite h…
Bakterien & Batterien
*2022 stock* In autumn 2013, Hamburg's formaldehyd electronaut Felix Kubin and the ominous ninepiece Warsaw orchestra Mitch & Mitch joined forces to produce an avant-pop-backwards-jazz-library-record. Inspired by the work of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, Polish and Czech film soundtracks, easy listening, musique concrète and various other bizarre style icons, they invited German producer legend Tobias Levin to be their electric conduit. With their faces turned to the dark side of the moon and th…
