In Dub
Brought to life in 1976 on his small imprint Stars, In Dub is one of the most sought after Tappa Zukie album. Alongside Man Ah Warrior it is a mandatory purchase for any reggae lover more akin to the spacey reverberation of the studio facilities. With his deep, rumbling bass and the prodigious engineering of King Tubby (the album was cut at his own studio) the record still maintains his adventurous tenure. This crucial re-issue present the complete original tracklist with the addictions of two e…

The Majestic Yes
Taking off from Beaugars Seck’s foundational sabar drum rhythms — recorded by Sam in Dakar in February 2020 — Shackleton has constructed a trio of intricately layered, luminous, enchanted, epic excursions. The second is more dazzled and meandering, with jellied bass, insectile detail, and discombobulated jabbering; the third is more liquid, fleet of foot, and psychedelic, with a grooving b-line and funky keyboard stabs, scrambled eastern strings and hypnotic vocalese.

Apapneas Hypmne Somome
"Psychic Sounds welcomes the premiere publication of Chilean based musician, and animator Anibal Bley’s debut as Lavina Yelb. Originally released as a digital download in 2010, ‘Apapneas Hypmne Somome’ has finally found its way to physical media to bump & bounce in decks directly to your dome. ”Lavina Yelb’s world is inhabited by 8-bit characters, self-flapping blankets that shape-shift into and out of a plethora of cartoon morphologies and stroboscopic blocks and lines of color. Cheap keyboards…

Out (Version) / Love (Version)
Modern Love with a new 7” series reserved for asymmetric bangers and pop diversions, opening with a double A-side from Andy Stott, his first single in 11 years. Inna bare, dancehall style ‘Out (Version)’ on the A side feels out skeletal drums and stabs for a pure adrenaline rush in the dance. On the AA, ’Love (Version)’ cranks martial drums for propulsion; a euphoric rhythm searching for a vocal. Aye it’s a special one. Some heat coming in this series, keep it locked.

Fabulous Soundtracks
Fabulous Soundtracks, the fourth studio album by reclusive Los Angeles musician Jack Name, is an homage to the IRL world and its twisted and varied romance with the worlds of our minds, in a wild collection of "soundtracks'', each a sonic re-construction dedicated to a distinct scene. Both musically and lyrically, this is Name's most adventurous and genre-defying album. Elements of acid, dance, folk, micro-tonal weirdness, horror, sensuality, impressionism, and bursts of rock fuse with Name's mo…
Unknown City
*300 copies limited release* Creeping through an imaginary border, sidesteppin’ through the night like cyber phantoms eavesdropping on early morning machinery shifts, an industrial solstice for pagan mystics.

Météorismes
Ramuntcho Matta offers us a new vision of his music and, by extension, of his world. Time for oneself and for others. Of the raw and the real. Most of the tracks were recorded with a dictaphone, so as to stay as close to the music as possible. It's a return to basics and simplicity that reveals a voice that is both dense and sub-tile, husky and sensual. Ramuntcho Matta keeps his finger on the pulse, the instant, the present.
Adopting the technique of the Japanese painters - observing before cr…

La Lisana Lah
Always timely reissue of Muqata'a's first self-released EP from 2017. After years of fertile digital existence on his own Bandcamp, 'La Lisana Lah' now gets a much deserved tactile version through Souk, the Discrepant sublabel responsible for the already classic 'Inkanakuntu'. One of the most prominent figures of the Palestinian electronic scene, Muqata'a's trajectory has been one of resistance and urgency, leaving a sonic imprint of his own from pretty much the beginning. Without anything tenta…
Permanent Rain
‘Permanent Rain’ is introspective listening. Lean back and let your ears catch a source that moves, breaths, resonates and rises, until a quiet truth swells upon us. XIII captures truth in all its honesty. Sometimes it feels so physical, it’s as if time and elements of nature are peeled of layer after layer. This record combines songwriting with sonic hypnosis. A rhythmic, esoteric oasis, containing currents of mysticism, yet accompanied by contemporary electronics. Its elements translate to a b…
Black Creek
*102 copies limited edition* For anyone who's spent real time in the heavier quarters of the many-chambered underground in the last three decades, Andrew Nolan is a recognizable name. "Black Creek" represents an early entry in his most recent strain of solo work, which draws on dub and hip hop filtered through a studied lens of industrial dread (or maybe vice versa). Originally released as a cassette in 2021 by Seith Communiti, it's now presented as a limited LP in screen printed covers. The mus…
