A Third Fantasy
*200 copies limited edition* "a body. soft flesh draped over bones, enrobing the viscera, and holding back the eruption of fluids, various secretions. vulnerable materials housing a spring of unlearned lessons from mistakes made not yet made. run your hands over clean skin, raise the goosepimples. now spit on it. rub that in. clear and dripping, white and foaming, the world’s most ancient lubrication-i’m aroused just thinking about it. drool, slippery, sliding, tongue-wetting, fuck-helper. someh…
Seven Memories / Human Meat
Seven Memories / Human Meat brings Himukalt and Subklinik together in a collaboration that feels less like a split and more like a shared autopsy table. Across its two halves, the record traces a tight arc from psychic excavation to corporeal desecration, turning the body and memory into raw material for a language of diseased electronics, guttural atmospheres and suffocating space. It is an album that treats industrial and death‑ambient not as fixed styles but as solvents, slowly stripping away…
Rules
Tip! 2025 Stock. In the early 1960s, while Robert Moog was still perfecting his voltage-controlled synthesizers in upstate New York, a young Finnish physicist named Erkki Kurenniemi was building an entirely different future in a basement studio at the University of Helsinki. Working with digital control technology years before the rest of the world caught on, Kurenniemi created instruments that seemed to arrive from a parallel timeline - synthesizers played with electronic pens, machines that tr…
Barbare Electrique
The trip of Steel Mammoth has truly been long and strange. On this album they've finally come to an end, sort of. This is true post-post-apocalyptic electro-acoustic noise, culled from metal percussion, gongs and electronics by Jussi Lehtisalo (Circle, Pharaoh Overlord), Ilkka Vekka (Gatha, Haare etc.) and Ville Pirinen (Seremonia, VPCS). Imagine a lost INA-GRM session, dug up from radioactive black sand in the year 3019. Circuit funeral march, ritual music for androids. A joint release between …
Musiikki 2
*2025 stock* Mahti are a Finnish four-piece group presenting a unique mixture of ambient-rock, electronic music and traditional Finnish-Karelian music.
Lengthy semi-improvisational pieces are built on top of complex, hypnotic grooves which are layered with opaque guitars and strangely soothing noise elements. In the heart of it all there's kantele, an ancient Finnish string instrument played by Hannu Saha, who has studied Finnish folk music in theory and practice for nearly five decades.

Ei, Wir Tun Dir Nichts Zuleide!
6-track EP from the German experimental dark folk duo Brannten Schnüre. A shimmering, pastoral collage of acoustic instrumentation, electronics, field recordings and haunting, austere vocals, the songs on ‘Ei, Wir Tun Dir Nicths Zuleide!’ comes together to something quite astonishing and otherwordly. Luboš Fišer’s soundtrack to Valerie And Her Week Of Wonders comes to mind, as does the essence of Astrid Lindgren’s summer scenes with fragments of the ambience of something akin to Nico’s Desertsho…
Musik vom Nebengleis
Mega Tip! ** Incredible compilation assembled by, and including nonetheless than Brannten Schnüre. Gathering together unreleased tracks by Vox Populi! Limpe Fuchs, Läuten der Seele, Christoph Heeman and more, this is the most pleasant surprise we could get from Quirlschlängle. Still two months before Christmas, but the greatest gift is already here. ** "Nebengleis“ is one of those strange and rare German words that seem to be born both out of the dust of a bureaucratic, functional grammar and a …
Beyond the Black Crack
Paradigm Discs present a 40th anniversary vinyl reissue of Anal Magic And Rev. Dwight Frizzell's Beyond The Black Crack. It was originally released in mono, in an edition of 200 by Cavern Custom in 1976. Beyond the Black Crack was the concept of Reverend Dwight Frizzell, a musician, film maker, doctor of metaphysics and minister in the Universal Church of Life. Mentioned on the pivotal Nurse With Wound list, it remains a little known classic and one of the most unique listening experiences in mo…
Mirror
Paradigm Discs present a reissue of Amnon Raviv's Mirror, originally released in Israel in 1983 and only available in a handmade edition of just 50 copies. As such, this edition is the first widely available issue of this LP, giving it a chance to reach an audience beyond the 50 hardened collectors who got to hear this strange experimental record back in the '80s. There's nothing else quite like it from that era, let alone from Israel, although it does have some parallels with earlier avant-gard…
Ali's Smile
This record is divided into two sections. The first part is the title track and takes up most of side one. Ali's Smile was first published in 1971 and was privately released as a one-sided LP, in an edition of 99 copies. It came in a plain sleeve with a hardback copy of the spoken text, and was sold exclusively through Unicorn Bookshop in Brighton, UK. Bill Butler, the bookshop owner, was still paying off a viciously punitive fine and associated court costs imposed in 1968 after a guilty verdict…
Mare's Tail
In 1969 both Anthony Moore and David Larcher were at the start of their respective careers and both were inspired by the ideas of the avant garde and the new technologies becoming available to them. David experimented with the various techniques being explored in the medium of film making and Anthony tested the limits of what could be done with tape recorders. It was an open and co-operative exploration. The results of their first collaboration was the film Mare’s Tail - an unusually long 2:30 h…
Errant Ear
The legendary electroacoustic composer presents her most intimate work yet, weaving five decades of sonic memories into a profound meditation on time, perception, and the treasures of lived experience
Life Time
** Special Time-Limited Offer ** On Life Time, Tony Williams upends expectations of a drummer’s debut, convening shifting ensembles that include Sam Rivers, Bobby Hutcherson, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Gary Peacock. Rather than a showcase of drum solos, the album is a series of explorations in texture, space, and form. Williams’ playing ranges from explosive to whisper‑soft, but always with an acute sense of placement: each cymbal stroke, roll, or accent is structural, not ornamental. The o…
Leg End
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 repress* Debut album released in 1973 by Henry Cow, one of Canterbury's most important bands, formed around Fred Frith and Tim Hodgkinson, who were students at Cambridge University. It was signed to Virgin and recorded at Manor Studios. The songs had reached maturity in their earlier shows, and the studio work was highly accomplished, with intelligent, avant-garde songs produced…
Unrest
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 repress* Second release from 1974. The three tracks on the analogue A-side are all meticulously arranged, even the improvisation-style passages, and show that the sound of early Henry Cow had reached its peak. The B-side is an improvisation-driven piece that hints at the possibilities of Cow's later work. Long-awaited encore pressing in paper jacket, 7 bonus tracks, remastered i…
In Praise of Learning
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 repress* This album was recorded at about the same time as Desperate Straights, the album that combined with Slap Happy and was recorded under a joint name. With the addition of Dubmar, there are more vocal numbers and the ensemble is as brilliant as on the previous album. The album is a good blend of the interest in improvisation shown on the previous album. Long-awaited encore…
Disposable
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Second album by The Deviants in 1969, led by Mick Farren, who was a key figure in the Notting Hill Gate area of the British underground. The album is a refreshingly clean album, with a rock ‘n’ roll feel and less improvised parts of the debut. This is a piece that set out the direction of Mick's talents, and has already established itself as the mother of the Pink Fairies…
The Deviants
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Third and final album of the first Deviants, released in 1969 by The Deviants, led by Mick Farren, a key figure in the Notting Hill Gate area of the British underground. A highly artistic piece of work, a jumble and concoction of rock, art, pop, avant-garde music and more. Mick Phalen is also a dark novelist, and his wide-eyed view of the world is unique. Paper jacket, SH…
The World As It Is Today
*2024 reissue* Third and final album released in 1980. This album was released as a 45rpm 30 cm LP in analogue format. The entire album is filled with dark, high-tension performances, with a strong message that can be interpreted as an antithesis to the reality of the world, and a foreshadowing of the later activities of ReR and others. Paper jacket, SHM-CD, remastered in 2015, with three bonus tracks, as well as a reproduced 20-page booklet that came with the first pressing. Long-awaited encore…
