Upgrade & Afterlife
Upgrade & Afterlife stands as a pivotal and singular recording in the catalog of Gastr del Sol, the duo of David Grubbs and Jim O’Rourke. Originally released in 1996, this album is frequently cited as a landmark of post-rock and experimental music, praised for its blend of avant-garde abstraction, folk minimalism, and a restless, exploratory spirit. The album opens with “Our Exquisite Replica of ‘Eternity’,” a piece that has become emblematic for many listeners: a slow-building, cinematic sounds…
Ashmadai
*2025 stock* "Two adepts of the sonic arts return with a morality play in four sides. Gone are the appeals to the winged serpent, the tree of life, or other past luminaries; these days they can be seen in consort with only one: Ashmadai. It is said that Ashmadai is not to be feared. When you say to it: 'In truth thou art Ashmadai,' it will give you a wonderful ring. It will teach you geometry, arithmetic, astronomy and mechanics. When questioned, it answers truthfully. Released on two twelve inc…
Dead-Loop
*2025 stock* Tim Barnes’ latest full-length: DE∆D-LOOP (AMI 038R/W), is his first solo release since 2002’s All Acoustics. DE∆D-LOOP offers another arm in Barnes’ wide-ranging body of music and work, as well as supplying an additional thread connecting the House, pop and sound art conversations the album engages. In many ways DE∆D-LOOP is House music that takes a sideways approach to the language of dance music. As both a concept and a practice, Barnes aims to turn House on its side, reconsideri…
2022-2023
*200 copies limited edition* K / S / R (the trio of Ben Kujawski, Abigail Smith, and Justin Rhody) play a unique form of delicate free-improvisation that blends deep listening, scree, and post-jazz sensibilities. As if Adris Hoyos & Tony Conrad created lounge music for Coast to Coast AM. Since 2022, the trio have also regularly performed works for expanded cinema in select locales across the US - with a prime example from an Oakland CA performance documented on this double disc set of essential …
Bruised Fruit & Underfed Flora
*2025 stock. 20 copies limited edition* Abstract sampler-based film score by Jeremy Kennedy, “blending electronics and vocals that really remind me what Gong were doing in 1972-73.” - Byron Coley
Blu-ray disc of accompanying film by Justin Rhody included.
Desert Crawl
*2025 stock. 100 copies limited edition* High Desert free-improv trio, K/S/R (Ben Kujawski, Abigail Smith, and Justin Rhody), provide an ultra-full-length album of studio sessions, private jams, and live expanded cinema recordings. A fittingly intense culmination of time spent, efforts made, emotional response, and intuitive composition. This is a music that's hated by the punks and the conservatory alike - executed in warehouses, microcinemas, and former cookie factories across the United State…
Music for Harry Smith
*2025 stock. 100 copies limited edition* Free-improv quintet recorded live in accompaniment to the early films of Harry Smith at No Name Cinema (an event organized in partnership with the Harry Smith Archives in celebration of Smith's centennial). Also featuring a 14 minute long remix by Cody Yantis (à la Jeph Jerman & Harry Partch daydreaming in the industrial sector).
Guitarrhagia
2011 release ** Limited edition of 150 copies. "A tasteful masterpiece using only acoustic guitar!"
Går I Kras
Går I Kras is the fourth album from the Gothenburg-trio Amateur Hour that consists of Hugo Randulv, Julia Bjernelind and Dan Johansson. While in many ways continuing where the massive Krökta Tankar Och Brända Vanor double left off in 2022, the new 11-song album is arguably the most accessible and refined recording yet from the group, with some of their strongest tracks to date. Still blending dreamy lo-fi pop music with electronics and crude sound collages, The Cannanes through a meatgrinder and…

Belly Up
You Never End is the third album from Valentina Magaletti, Tom Halstead and Joe Andrews (Moin) out via AD 93 on the 25th October. Its title alone expresses the teetering and shifting nature of both the album and band. This record marks the Moin’s shift into a new phase with vocal collaborations across the album from Olan Monk, james K, Coby Sey and Sophia Al-Maria.
The album’s collaborators all have voices that are alluring in their own right whilst hard to pin down: from james K’s ethereal, rev…
Japanese Avant-Garde
2002 release ** "Most music in Japan has little to recommend it; it is a sonic equivalent of those brutal concrete towers or the transitory chaos of multi-storey teen-fashion emporia in Aoyama. But a sonic underground thrives, creatively if not financially, and perhaps it should be compared with the shabby Golden-gai drinking dens of Shinjuku, faint reminders of a lost time when desire and transgression shared endless cups of sake with political and artistic radicalism... How is it possible to l…
Là
Là is an immersive, politically charged sound journey – a lament for the Al Naqab desert in Palestine. It is the result of a collaboration between Sirah Foighel Brutmann, Eitan Efrat, Laszlo Umbreit, and Ot Lemmens. The album combines acoustic instruments like flute and cymbals with processed electronics and mechanical sounds.
The track Ensemble is made from sound recordings of eleven 16mm film projectors, playing simultaneously and in intervals, creating a texture centered around a single pitch…
On a Tuesday and a Wednesday
*200 copies limited edition* Blickwinkel presents ‘On a Tuesday and a Wednesday’, the first collaboration between Pierre Bastien and Casper Van De Velde. The album captures what the duo has been working on during a 2-day residency at Werkplaats Walter (Brussels), invited by the label. In their improvised sessions, they quickly found a way to merge Bastien's renowned mechanical sound sculptures with the playful and detailed style of percussionist Casper Van De Velde. The result is a blend of intr…
untilted mini-CDr
2010 release ** “A very short album, only eight minutes, with a contained, almost contracted minimalism, this TNZR001 will pass like a comet in your CD player. Visible and audible from a distance only with the help of a telescope, suffused, slightly dissonant, rarefied between pauses, silences and microscopic buzzes, this work could satisfy fans of Bernhard Günter but also lovers of certain contemporary music for its leaps between synthetic dissonant chords and more relaxed concrete textures. It…
This Old Man
Originally released on vinyl in 1975 by Dimension 5, Bruce's own label. This Re-Issue is the first time 'This Old Man' has been released on vinyl since then! Now, sounding even more brilliant than ever - all the tracks have been Re-Mastered by Kramer. Text from the Original Release: ‘Created and Totally Performed by Bruce Haack’. ‘An Electronic Musical-Poetic treat for Elementary and High School-People revealing more wonders of our Earth Ship.’ 'Most of the music on this album was programmed o…
Moon Beams
Mesh-Key is thrilled to announce a deluxe, expanded reissue of Moon Beams by Tokyo visionaries, Tsuki No Wa.
Schokolino Choco Loco
"As I sit down to pen these words for Stilluppsteypa's latest vinyl release on the enigmatic Futura Resistenza label, I find myself jumping back a year or two, reminded of the profound impact this Icelandic ensemble has had on the northern landscape of experimental arts for four decades. Emerging in the early 1990s, Stilluppsteypa began their journey as a punk-oriented band with multiple members. However, their insatiable curiosity for the unconventional soon led them to explore more abstract an…

2008 7" compilation of 100 locked-grooves by some 60 artists including Nurse With Wound, in 10" sleeve released in an edition of 333 copies on red vinyl. With insert.
