Issue 123: Cluster (Magazine + 7" White)
You probably don't need us to translate ELEKTRONISCHES DEUTSCHLAND for you. But to expand on that a little, we're heading back to the 1970s and a country then known as West Germany for this month's Electronic Sound cover story. We're bundling the issue with an exclusive orange vinyl seven-inch by kosmische pioneers Cluster too.
Our cover image is based on the artwork of the debut album from Harmonia, krautrock's first supergroup, and you will find five connected articles inside the magazine, inc…

Hidden
The inimitable Richard Youngs returns to Black Truffle with this third full-length for the label, »Hidden«. Like »CXXI« and »Modern Sorrow«, »Hidden« unfolds across two side-long pieces at once eminently listenable and possessed of the ›bloody-minded‹ dedication to having an idea and sticking with it’ that Youngs himself has identified as one of the key qualities of his work.
At the core of both pieces are rapid, randomised arpeggios generated with a Moog Grandmother, hypnotic patterns that woul…
Freedom, Rhythm & Sound - Chapter Two (Book)
Hardcover, 297x297mm, 224pp. Over 15 years after the groundbreaking first volume, Soul Jazz Records returns with Freedom, Rhythm & Sound: Chapter Two - a stunning visual documentation of revolutionary jazz artwork from the 1960s-1980s. Originally compiled by Gilles Peterson and Stuart Baker, this expanded second volume dives deeper into the radical graphic universe of independently published jazz records.
The story begins with the first generation of African American jazz artists who transformed…
Suspiria
Special edition of Goblin’s masterpiece, here released on blue iris coloured vinyl with 30x30cm insert and new liner notes. After the incredible debut of “Profondo Rosso” (Deep Red), the soundtrack of the eponymous 1975 film directed by Dario Argento, no one could ever imagine that shortly afterwards Goblin would be able not only to reach its heights but even further refine what the band already delivered in their first record. While “Profondo Rosso” had been partly composed by Giorgio Gaslini,…
The Wicker Man
Huge Tip! Originally released in 2013 for the 40th anniversary of the cult 70’s horror film, only 500 copies of The Wicker Man 40th Anniversary Edition were pressed on black vinyl which have become highly sought after. One of the maddest soundtracks you'll ever buy – a strange mix of folksy tunes, sound effects, and odd noisy bits – recorded for the equally odd film of the same name!
The record is impossible to describe accurately, but it's a really dark one – strangely fragile at some moments,…

Transmissions From The Radio Midnight
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* This project, entitled Transmissions From The Radio Midnight, started around 2006, when I acquired a Sony TCM F59 — an AM/FM radio and cassette recorder combined in a slim, handheld body. Since then, whenever I went on a trip, I would throw it into my suitcase and take it around with me. No matter which country I was in, upon returning to the hotel room I made a habit of listening to the radio into the late hours of the night. As soon as I would snuggle into bed…

Vhoysee
*200 copies limited edition* The first Manon Anne Gillis release was a single-sided mini-album titled “Angebiguë”, which was Manon’s self-release in 1983. “Angebiguë” was 6-track mini-album in a cold-minimal-synth vein, and any track from “Angebiguë” were not included in her retrospective 5CD Box “Archives Box 1983-2005”, which Art into Life released in 2015. “Angebiguë” was privately released in tiny edition for her friends only and has been a highly sought-after item among collectors. “Vhoysee…
The Return of the Durutti Column
The Return Of The Durutti Column is an iconic debut, pairing Vini Reilly’s introspective guitar sketches with Martin Hannett’s atmospheric production.

Deconstructed or reconstructed in an industrial, post-punk aesthetic, recalling whole On-U Sound golden age (Adrian Sherwood, Mark Stewart, African Head Charge…) as well as Craig Leon, Sheriff Lindo… and more.

Music On Canvas
While still unknown to many today, Enzo Minuti (1927-2000), aka Ezy Minus, left his unique mark on the kaleidoscopic world of Italian library music. One of the most versatile, skilled and authentic figures in the Bolognese music scene of the mid- to late 20th century, Minuti was a multi-instrumentalist, composer, music producer and recording studio manager, as well as a painter, etcher and graphic artist. He devoted his life to music (especially jazz, a genre that has enjoyed a long tradition in…
