Dias da Aranha
It is no surprise that the most populated Serpente record to date is also his most vibrant and emancipated. With collaborations from Maxwell Sterling, Kelly Jayne Jones, Pedro Sousa, Vasco Alves and Gabriel Ferrandini, “Dias da Aranha” is a leap from previous releases like “Parada” and “Fé/Vazio”, both on Ecstatic. If you’re keeping in touch with Portuguese electronic music, then Bruno Silva’s music should be no stranger to you. If you’ve also been keeping tabs on his evolution throughout our ca…
Emergency Entrance
Also for the first time legally reissued is Emergency`s second album from 1972 'Entrance', also on CBS.

Both albums are remastered from the mastertapes out of the Sony/CBS archives. The sound is brilliant. Little story included. Limited edition.
2
The Royal Servants, forerunners of Eulenspygel, were formed in 1965 in Swabia/Germany. Starting up with beat music, they gradually turned to Blues Rock, finally Progressive Psychedelic and released one album named "We". In early 1971, they were one of the first bands to write their songs in German. So they changed their name into Eulenspygel the same year and the first new release was named "2", recorded at the Maschen studio near Hamburg. The front cover caused a scandal because of a burnt chic…
Drive Live
*Official remastered reissue* We Are Busy Bodies presents Drive Live. A live performance by South African group The Drive, founded in 1971 by Adolphus "Bunny" Luthuli and Henry Sithole.
Workaround
Workaround is the lucidly playful and ambitious solo debut album by rhythm-obsessive musician and DJ, Beatrice Dillon for PAN. It combines her love of UK club music’s syncopated suss and Afro-Caribbean influences with a gamely experimental approach to modern composition and stylistic fusion, using inventive sampling and luminous mixing techniques adapted from modern pop to express fresh ideas about groove-driven music and perpetuate its form with timeless, future-proofed clarity.
Out of Chaos
The first complete CD of music by New York composer Jason Eckardt: four first recordings, After Serra, Tangled Loops, A Glimpse Retraced and Polarities, played by Ensemble 21, saxophonist Taimur Sullivan and pianist Marilyn Nonken.
Extreme Guitar Project
First recordings of ten guitar pieces commissioned by Marco Cappelli from New York Downtown composers including Marc Ribot, Ikue Mori, Elliott Sharp and Otomo Yoshihide, played on an amplified classical guitar with sympathetic strings and MIDI control.
Epiphanies
On Epiphanies, the first-ever "concept-compilation" to be released by Hallow Ground, artists such as Maria W Horn, FUJI||||||||||TA, Lawrence English, Siavash Amini and Norman Westberg, who all have previously released music on the Swiss label, were commissioned to pursue a non-rational creative process in approaching the phenomenon of epiphany through sound. In very different ways, all of the compositions on the compilation draw on the unique emotional powers of certain acoustic instruments, ob…
Jazz In Italy
This compilation comes as a perfect introduction to vintage Italian Jazz. A fine selection of some of the best Italian mainstream jazz masters of the sixties and seventies such as the young trumpet genius of Enrico Rava, or maverick film music composer Piero Umiliani, whose jazz influence is well known worldwide. Throughout this record you will bump into both famous and obscure swing / bop stylists of the likes of bass player, Giorgio Azzolini, trombonist Dino Piana, tenor saxophonist Gianni Bas…
Antologia De Musica Atipica Portuguesa Vol. 3: Canto Devocionário
Third time’s a charm. Or a chant in this case. “Antologia De Música Atípica Portuguesa” is back. Following two sold out volumes, the unplanned trilogy comes to a close with chants and hymns whilst continuing to merge music genres and presenting them as a world building concept. If the first two volumes were dedicated to work (“O Trabalho”) and regions (“Regiões”), it only made sense to close the trilogy with ceremonial music, connecting the real – each musicians’ creation – with a fantasied cel…
Those Shocking Shaking Days
*2022 Restock.* The full title is Those Shocking Shaking Days: Indonesian Hard, Psychedelic, Progressive Rock and Funk 1970-1978. And as is probably obvious, it’s Now-Again’s attempt to present the untold story of Indonesia’s various underground 70s musical scenes. The anthology is presented as a 3 LP, which comes with a download card for the audio and a downloadable version of the booklet and also as a “mini-LP” tip on sleeve CD housed in an O-card and accompanied by a thick, perfect bound, 64 …

Oltracuidansa

Rana, Ritual And Revelations
Five first recordings of works by composer and harpist Anne LeBaron, 1975-1986, including Lamentation/Invocation, Rite of the Black Sun, Planxty Bowerbird, Noh Reflections and Concerto for Active Frogs, played by the New Music Consort and others.
Tapes 2
Another absolute gem from Trunk, building on the ground covered by their mind-bending release from 2017, "Tapes 1" - delving into the sprawling musical archive of the cult Dutch film director, Frans Zwartjes - comes "Tapes 2". Taking this incredible sonic journey toward new depths, the LP provides a missing link within the history of the avant-garde, dramatically expanding the available perceptions of Zwartjes’ crucial musical output, while alluding to so much more.
RFG Inventions for Cello and Computer
Remarkable collaboration between inventor, synth pioneer and EMS co-founder Peter Zinovieff and preeminent cellist Lucy Railton, capturing a life-altering dialogue between two figures with a more than 50-year age gap between them, and with very little shared musical vocabulary. Pursuing common ground through an open-ended series of conversations and experiments, the pair somehow produce what we can only describe as creative alchemy; transforming banal conceptual triggers into a work seeping into…

Tanzprocesz presents Matt by Contumace. Lionel Fernandez temporarily abandons his Sister Iodine power trio to engage in a static bullfight with himself. Synthetic miniatures & frequency lacerations. Austere concatenations & petrified movements. 666 pairs of sunglasses in the country of eternal night.
s/t
*In process of stocking* Tanzprocesz presents the new Rirette self titled EP. Baroque electricity & laser gregorian chants, sound surveillance & futuristic raised fists. The dream soundtrack of a dystopian fiction.

Drowner
First ever vinyl pressing of Yellow Swans’ incredible 2007 noise tempest, originally deployed on ultra-limited edition of just 60 cassettes back in 2007, ‘Drowner’ was one of the legendary duo’s fiercest deployments of scorched earth noise-gaze
