One
Anonymous transmissions from a spectral, dead-of-night mystery zone. Recorded in 1996 and originally release by Japan's enigmatic La Musica Records label on limited cassette. A group that deconstructs and liberates the chance nature of contemporary classical and noise music enough so that their boundaries blur. Available for the first time on vinyl and digital. Recorded in 1996 and released without any identifying credits in an essentially private cassette edition, Bibiotheca Hermetica's sole re…

Tearing Down The Coliseum Wall
On Tearing Down The Coliseum Wall, Pink Floyd deliver The Wall in full at Nassau Coliseum on February 28, 1980, captured in a limited bootleg edition that documents one of rock's most elaborate spectacles during the album's brief, expensive first tour across three vinyl discs and Gerald Scarfe artwork.
United for Live 8
On United For Live 8, Pink Floyd's classic lineup - David Gilmour, Roger Waters, Richard Wright and Nick Mason - reunite at Hyde Park on July 2, 2005 for a charged, twenty‑minute set that proves both redemptive and bittersweet, the first time in twenty‑four years and the last ever together.

The Velvet Underground & Nico
45th Anniversary Remaster Over Half a century later, this record still slays; if any album is deserving of the "classic" tag, it's The Velvet Underground & Nico. Lou Reed's affected vocals, Nico's female Lugosi-style recitations, John Cale's droning strings, Moe Tucker's minimal kit - this landmark work laid down paths that musicians today are still trying to follow. Just pick any track: "I'm Waiting For The Man," "Sunday Morning," "Venus In Furs," "All Tomorrow's Parties," "There She Goes Again…
Next To Nothing
Black Editions presents the expanded and definitive edition of White Heaven's brilliant third album Next to Nothing. Originally released in 1994 by Tokyo's Noon Disk, the full album was only ever available in a limited vinyl pressing of 250 copies. Since then, it has become one of the most sought-after artifacts of the '90s Japanese underground and is regarded as a highpoint of Japanese psychedelic rock.
Led by vocalist, songwriter and conceptualist You Ishihara, the album finds the group in a…
Solid Static
On Solid Static, Musica Transonic / Mainliner - Asahito Nanjo, Makoto Kawabata and Tatsuya Yoshida - turn late‑90s Tokyo psych into a feral laboratory, smashing motorik riffs, free‑jazz volatility and distortion worship into one long, white‑hot detonation.
Embryo's Sculptures
Embryo’s Sculptures captures Pink Floyd in a stunning live performance at the Rainbow Theatre, Finsbury Park, London, on 20 February 1972. This remarkable recording preserves a pivotal moment in the band’s evolution, offering a fascinating glimpse into the creative forces that would soon culminate in The Dark Side of the Moon.
At this stage, Pink Floyd were moving into one of the most inventive and defining periods of their career. The set features a substantial amount of material that would lat…
Nothing Is New In This Room Except The Dust
With Nothing in this room is new except the dust, Ivan The Tolerable returns not to a room but to a weather-beaten tract of being — a north-facing interior where wind has a voice and the light is a thin animal nosing the corners. The trio who forged Black Water, Brown Earth and An Orphan Form — Oli Heffernan, Mees Siderius, and Elsa Van Der Linden — move here with the patience of creatures that have learned the seasons of each other’s blood. If the earlier records surveyed land, this one digs in…

Issue 70 (Magazine)
Audion 70 catches Audion Magazine in full investigative mode, tracing unlikely connections between avant-garde improvisers, 1970s label culture and the latest mutations of progressive rock. At its core is a substantial feature on AMM / AMMMusic, treating the ensemble not as a distant academic reference but as a living fault-line in post‑war sound. The article unpacks how AMM’s radical non-idiomatic improvisation, tape abuse and volume-as-material approach rewired the language of collective playi…
Chromophobia
A record made for the ones we lost. Oli Heffernan returns with his fourth album for Riot Season - an expansive double LP that carries with it a deep personal history and years of unfinished business.
The earliest sessions date back to 2018 at the IDI in Middlesbrough, engineered by longtime collaborator Nigel Crooks over the course of three weekends. Then life happened. The material was shelved, left to gather dust for reasons that accumulated and compounded. When Crooks passed away in 2023, com…
Autodidact II
*Limited edition of 100 copies* Finally! The crucial 2021 album by Middlesbrough's Oli Heffernan gets the double vinyl treatment it always deserved. Originally released as a cassette on Cruel Nature Records and gone way too fast, Autodidact II is one of the great documents of UK experimental music from this decade - a sprawling, fog-drenched journey through psychogeography, North Yorkshire folklore and sonic territories that shift under your feet.
Recorded during three separate sessions in July …
The Gaia II Space Corps
Motorpsycho has always been of the opinion that the most interesting stuff happens in any art form before it is formatted and settled. In rock music, this phenomenon peaked in and around 1970, and it is in this period that the best heavy music was made, simply because the rules weren’t set, there were not ropes yet, and there were no clichés to fall back on.
The Gaia ll Space Corps is an album of tunes that don’t quite sound like heavy metal or hard rock, but clearly is reaching for some of the …
Wave Field
If you’ve been following the wanderings of prolific psychedelic magicians Elkhorn, you might be surprised that Elkhorn guitarist Drew Garder’s solo LP Wave Field is the most out and out “rock” record on VHF in many years. Working here in a small group with excellent players Tom Malach (guitar), Andy Cush (bass), and Ryan Jewel (drums), Gardner cuts loose on a set of propulsive and swinging material that allows him to greatly expand his sound into unexpected areas. “Rhizoid” starts with a sneaky …
