Killer Nun
Death Waltz Recording Company is proud to present yet another soundtrack from the video nasty age, guaranteed* to cause you harm and go out and murder and rape others, this time in the name of the lord. Corrupting your mind this time is Alessandro Alessandroni’s score to Giulio Berruti’s nunsploitation classic Killer Nun (Suor Omicidi). Anita Ekberg stars as Sister Gertrude, a member of the sisterhood who descends into shocking depths of homosexuality and drug addiction while shocking her little…
Muscle Up
Dark Entries and Honey Soundsystem Records have teamed up again to release another volume of gay porn soundtracks by San Francisco-based musician and producer, Patrick Cowley. Perhaps one of the most revolutionary and influential people in the canon of disco music, Cowley created his own brand of Hi-NRG dance music, "The San Francisco Sound." Born in Buffalo, NY on October 19, 1950, Patrick moved to San Francisco at the age of 21. He studied at the City College of San Francisco where he founded …
Cognition / Observation

Improvisations
This unique collection comes with an attractive and profusely illustrated 144-page book with many previously unpublished photographs of Gurdjieff and recollections of people who were present when these recordings were made. It further contains several chapters by Gert-Jan Blom about the process of selecting and sequencing the tracks, audio restoration of the recordings, the history of Gurdjieff’s harmonium music, transcriptions of Gurdjieff’s stories and an extensive track notes-section.

L' Oeil Ecoute / Dedans - Dehors
2014 Repress. Third release on the newly minted eMego offshoot Recollection GRM, two pieces realized by Bernard Parmegiani in 1970. The former is full of negative space and low, coiling drones. For listeners whose only exposure to GRM came in the form of the first two installments in the Recollection GRM catalog, this material will come across as much less frenetic and more cinematic, particularly the beautiful, cosmic landscapes that make up the middle portion of the A-side. "Dedans-Deho…
Slicer
A minimalistic, tone-heavy and slower recording than much of their work, fired with deep electronic and horn-generated tones, stretched and layered over glitch-electronics, ultra-crude tape manipulation, and ear-piercing scraping glass. Nightmarish, painful, and stoned. Coming just months after Dread (Wolf Eyes' first LP as a trio), Slicer was released on cassette in an edition of 50 in 2001. From start to finish, it's a full-fledged sonic experience. Deep stuttering bass, high streams of electr…
Divertissement
**2nd press** Divertissement is the third collaborative full-length from minimalist composer William Basinski and sound artist Richard Chartier. The duo utilizes electronics, piano, tape loops, and short-wave radio to evoke a dense atmosphere suggesting hundreds of years of history rising up from the depths of a reverberating cathedral. Subtle, buried, and intense murmurs of melody morph through this deeply consuming and slowly evolving composition in two parts. William Basinski is a class…
Votive Zero
Formed in opposition to the media identity schizophrenia of the present, Thought Broadcast thrive upon the post-punk tactics of forgery and radical anonymity. Votive Zero is the second release on Editions Mego from this mysteriously coded American outfit. Emerging from the U.S. noise/punk background, Thought Broadcast further trace a unique path with nine carefully-considered obfuscations of rhythm and blurred takes on expressionism. Utilizing minimalist spaces, rhythmic repetition and material …
Clack!
"In Fall 1979, R. Stevie Moore squeezed into a midtown Manhattan building at 56 West 45th Street, entered a tiny 8th floor jingle studio run by Englishman Tom Clack, and proceeded to bond bigtime with ambitious engineer Jon Child (who Uncle Harry Palmer had earlier sought out to assist in assembling the original PHONOGRAPHY album) to create one of his greatest collections of music. Still awestruck by his recent move north, R. Stevie first met Jon & Tom when the studio was utilized for compiling …
Consecration of the Whipstain
*Strictly limited pressing - just 440 copies available* Pat Maher has left an indelible mark on our listening habits over the last few years - and in the process has become a producer tipped by many a tastemaker. From the ketamine techno fractals of his Diamond Catalog alias to the cough syrup-laced chopped and screwed productions as DJ Yo Yo Dieting, the guy just seems to have furrowed his own unique path situating him somewhere between the films of David Lynch, the aesthetic of the Tri Angle l…
Plays Wagner - Part One
*Flickering neon tape loops and haunting layered drones for followers of David Lynch - Strictly Limited Copies only, just 150 available in the UK!* Slowly demented and nightmarish wasteland sequences from Portland, Oregon's Pat Maherr, crafting his debut album under the Indignant Senility moniker. Maherr has previously split his time between a plethora of monikers, from the chopped and screwed hiphop of DJ Yo Yo Dieting to Sisprum Vish's lo-fi noise, developing the gritty collage sensibility whi…
Clock Dva LP in bundle
Limited Edition Pressings of six separate Clock Dva Albums circa 1978-80 now available as standalone, separate releases for the first time. Beautiful remastered editions, 200 copies only! That hugely elaborate, hugely expensive ClockDva Box Set from a couple of years ago (A Chronology of Dvation) has long sold out - but Vinyl on Demand have thankfully made a very limited run (200 copies only) of each of these Six LPs that comprise such an integral component in the machinery of early Indu…
Audiostatik Repress
Awsome! Le Syndicat with this reissue of Audiostatik Repress from 1983, certified to be a head-cleaner of brutalist / bruitist / rhythmicist / industrial noise... The rhythm and noise for Le Syndicat evolved through process mingling tape-loops, overblown drum machine programming, shortwave radio experiments, short-circuited consumer electronics, and eventually rudimentary sampler technolog. Audiostatik Repress is a visionnary project in 1983 of what's happened late in the 90'…
BiS Kaidan
It is thunder and lightning, honey and lava, sugar and spice. It is Biskaidan, the murdering encounter of Japanese noise legends Hijokaidan (led by guitarist Jojo Hiroshige and screaming witch Junko) and twisted babydolls Bis (one of the hottest idol bands in Tokyo right now). The music they create sounds like nothing you've ever heard before. A volcano made of gut wrenching screams, distorted guitars, angelic sinings and positive kawaii energy. Biskaidan is the first, the last and the only idol…
The Wires Cracked
The recordings for The Wires Cracked were completed in a frenzied two week period in October of 2012. I had mentioned in discussing a previous album's construction that I prefer to forget how I build any particular electro-acoustic amalgam. This is so that I don't get to precious with them, so that I could refine them further, so that the sounds themselves speak beyond their aggregate parts. With the album being relatively fresh in my mind, I can still recall various components to "The Wi…
Cardinal
Philip Jeck writes: "To make this record I used Fidelity record players, Casio keyboards, Ibanez bass guitar, Sony MiniDisc players, Ibanez and Zoom effects pedals, assorted percussion, a Behringer mixer and it was edited it at home with MiniDisc players and on a laptop computer." "...and they sparkled like burnished brass" "Out of the depths of our complaints, it could be all so simple. To be never fooled by the finesse of a long-yearned for solidity, but in the momentary aplomb of a sle…
Electronic Recordings from Maui Jungle Vol. 1
After melting minds since the mid-'90s with his beat-based productions, renowned techno producer Anthony Child aka Surgeon now brings the fundamental components of electronic sound production to the fore with Electronic Recordings from Maui Jungle Vol. 1. Focusing on the development of timbre and texture, Child creates exquisite drones that offer insight into his improvisatory sensibility and dig deep into the potential of modular synthesis, largely inspired by the spiritual musics of artists…
Reorchestrations
This new collection of Joe Acheson's 'Reorchestrations' (including two previously unreleased tracks) takes works by exceptional experimental/classical/folk musicians as source material, and passes them through Joe's studio where they are intricately reworked with the signature Hidden Orchestra composition and production techniques. The result is a cohesive new Hidden Orchestra album, consisting of tracks produced since 2012, and representing the best of the music to come out of Joe's stud…
A Bird In The Hand Is Worth Two In The Bush
This record should be seen not so much as a tribute to Zbigniew Karkowski than as an ongoing concern to further his work and thinking as they were when he was alive, reacting, and questioning, uncompromisingly. Nevertheless, these are his final recordings, which he made- a homecoming of sorts - in Sweden, at EMS Studios in Stockholm, with his friends Jean-Louis Huhta and Lars Akerlund. Late november 2013. a reminiscence from the 1980s, the creation of the label Radium 226.05 by Carl Mich…
Noise Of Voice
*restocked, reduced price* 5x CD + Dvd box collecting Junko Hiroshige (founder member of Hijokaidan) her unique and extreme vocal style. Life’s a scream with Junko, whose extreme vocals exemplify the principle of less talk and more action: with vocal chords of rarely equaled sustainability (mere mortals would suffer nodules like golf balls if trying to match her), Junko’s often brutal high-register insistence comes across like the voice of Linda Sharrock taken to sheer hellish extr…
