El Telonero
it took ernesto gonzalez more than three years to record the follow-up for his 'vallée de dith', but it was definitely worth the waiting! 'el telonero' is a tribute to the art of opening up for other bands. this album was created during a period in which gonzalez got more comfortable on stage, often setting the vibe for the night. concentrating on the ultimate tuning-in quality. the loose kraut-inspired jams of his second record are pretty much absent here. the focus is on analog synths a…
Dungeon Dots
Debut LP. Nicole Schneit's soft, clear voice careens across walking bass lines, big cymbals & brassy guitars. Warm, inviting & bittersweet. Features Sharon Van Etten.
Aroma Club Paradox
RESTOCKED, last copies...Awesome Asmus Tietchens LP housed in a beautiful cover and blue vinyl limited edition "Every now and then Asmus Tietchens leaves his serious self behind, like an outta body experience, and enters the Aroma Club. Somewhere in the 80s he released four synth based LPs on Sky (and subsequently recorded on CD by Die Stadt), and then in the last years of the old millennium he returned to playing this kind of music on cheesy keyboards as Hematic Sunsets, producing by now, inclu…
The Electronic Record For Children
"Recorded in 1969 , early electronic music pioneer Bruce Haack and child educator Ms. Nelson go bravely and deeply into psychedelic music compositions designed to open the minds and hearts of the young. Truly far out electronic music that evokes a space age alternate universe. Bruce and Ms. Nelson are joined by pianist Praxietellis Pandit and their relaxed sounding friend Chris to bring you songs about everything from ancient folk tales to outerspace to what the world sounds like when y…
Running on autokinetic
classic Ashtray Navigations, two hallucino-kinetic tracks each side
Intermezzo
I met Richard in 2004 on a crazy tour in Australia (Oren Ambarchi's last What is Music?). He was a founding member of The Sun City Girls but he came out to play solo. Instantly we were entranced by his playing, so many beautiful elements of why I love guitar come through in his music and presence, without floating around in genre space at all. Here on the road with Kevin Drumm, Dead C, Residents, Gang Gang Dance, Black Dice, etc amongst this insane lineup Richard ended up supporting Pan S…
Love Life & Games
RESTOCKED: I wrote these tunes in 1968 when Micheal Cosmic and i were students at the AACM School of Music. i revised Love life & games in 2008. i had a band going on then with Micheal Cosmic. we played students concerts with Roscoe Mitchell. he also taught us our reeds. i had music theory with Anthony Braxton and Richard Muhal Abrams..."

Infa'a
Last copies...Qbico often has cool color-swirled vinyl, but this time it seems like it’s mood-vinyl, a soothing and fervent green spins around the turntable almost as an entrancing as this release itself. There are minor flashes of red and blue and white…but the green is elemental and rich. This supports the garden of sound cultivated here, Bey’s sax takes deep roots, often shadowed and wrapped with brotherly vines from fellow saxmen Mike Carey and Skeeter Shelton. Nick Ashton’s drums drop dewdr…
Spiritual Church Movement
Perispirit is the collaborative project of Ricardo Donoso and Luke Moldof, here delivering their debut album proper after a number of cassette editions for Prurient's Hospital Productions and Ricardo's own Semata imprint. The sound they make is brilliantly impossible to categorise, bringing together analogue and digital electronic sound sources to create a freakish organism that reminds you of anything from Keith Fullerton Whitman to Prurient to Autechre to purist musique concrète without…
Metempsychotic Melodies
Daniel Higgs returns with his second full length recording for Holy Mountain after last year's critically acclaimed Ancestral Songs and his contribution. "Atomic Yggdrasil Tarot," to Thrill Jockey's series of books collecting art and music. Metempsychotic Melodies continues to document Higgs' rise as a solo performer. Raw picked banjo drones dominate Metempsychic Melodies as the instrumental "Universal Salutation" fades into the waking dream soliloquy of observation "Love Abides." "Leontocephali…
Quantum Jelly
Quantum Jelly is the cracking new release in multidisciplinary artist/composer Lorenzo Senni's ever-busy schedule. A record deeply influenced by his love of '90s trance/hard-trance music and a growing interest in the musical structures and sound archetypes of those genres. Taking the most obvious characteristics of this kind of music (spoon-fed with supersaws, build-ups of several minutes and over-the-top-instant-gratification melodies) Senni works with these in relation to his own backgro…
Jealousy And Diamond
Kranky manage to sieve through the muck and pluck out another breathtaking album, the debut from Autistic Daughters - a collaboration between Dean Roberts, Werner Dafeldecker and Martin Brandlmayr (Radian). Those of you out there (and there are many) who revere Talk Talk’s ascent into heavenly climes with their “Laughing Stock” and “Spirit of Eden” albums will immediately find themselves seduced by this project’s wondrous effervescence. Except whereas Talk Talk emerged from a pop-focused univers…
Crow Autumn
Richard Skelton’s work as A Broken Consort is, ostensibly, consistently and easily contextualized within a broader composer-centric scene. Nick Cave and Warren Ellis, for example, deal in similar realms of psychogeographics with their soundtrack work on The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford and the like. There, the compositions render emotions on the physical plane. Landscapes and troubled faces don’t just feel alienated or manic or soul-crushingly vast. They look it.…
Prayer for Chibi
Suishou no Fune originated in Tokyo's fertile psychedelic scene. After landing a spot on PSF's Tokyo Flashback 5 and releasing Where the Spirits Are in 2006, the group ventured out from Japan and took every opportunity to play across the United States and Europe. During one of these trips in the spring of 2007, the group-- down to the crucial duo of Pirako and Kurenai-- went into a recording studio for a few days and laid down these massive new tracks. Prayer for Chibi might be the ultimate Suis…
Navigare
Once a member of early nineties daydream shoegazers Slowdive, for whom his manned the drums for four years, Simon Scott has since worked on a variety of projects, including, in recent years, atmospheric pop/electronic outfit Televise, and, more recently, Seavault, a collaboration with ISAN’s Antony Ryan. He is also at the helm of experimental imprint Keshhhhhh Recordings, which he runs from his native Cambridge. For his first release under his own name, Scott couldn’t have found a label more ada…
Renewable Destination
*restocked* Recorded from 2009-2011, during which time Caboladies members Eric Lanham and Chris Bush relocated from Kentucky to Chicago, Renewable Destination constitutes the duo's most refined and focused work to date. Both as a collaborative unit and under solo monikers Carl Calm and Flower Man, Lanham and Bush have produced a wealth of limited-run releases in recent years on labels such as Arbor, Dekorder, Digitalis, and their own Smooth Tapes imprint which document their uniquely fractured s…
Tuota tuota
"tuota tuota is the third full-length album by kiila. its songs were born of peaceful, focused work and intense rehearsals with friends, interspersed with sleep and mealtimes. the album features an eight-strong core line-up but, as always, the composition of the group varies effortlessly according to need. at this table, there is room for everyone. as musical form, songs have always been important to kiila, and consequently tuota tuota develops around its songs. on the other hand, the album cons…
Trilogy Select
Another highly sought-after pressing from the Olde English Spelling Bee, this time from Christelle Gualdi aka Stellar Om Source, featuring Daniel Lopatin aka Oneohtrix Point never* Intrepid sci-fi soundtrack-y synth excursions from the mind of electronic visionary, Christelle Gualdi aka Stellar Om Source, collated by the good folk at Olde English Spelling Bee. 'Trilogy Select' is essentially a directors cut of tracks taken from Stellar Om Source's trio of self-released CDr albums made bet…
Remote Aktion
Two years after releasing SRS' 'Heaven 39' 2LP, Diophantine Discs is happy to release a record of new recordings by Sshe Retina Stimulants! Following in a vein similar to his other recent recordings this year, we are presented with four tracks of very abstract and experimental noise music. Using a variety of treated and processed instruments and electronics, this is surely one of the most complex, intense, and dynamic works by SRS. Sshe Retina Stimulants, the project of P.NG5361.B (Paolo Bandera…
