*300 copies limited edition* Images Of Goo is what Munich sound bricolageurs Leo Hopfinger aka LeRoy (head of Das Hobos, H, Spiritual Emojis and others) and Cico Beck aka Joasihno (active member of The Notwist, Aloa Input, Spirit Fest and others) call their first musical dialogue in album format. It is equally a dialogue with the elements of their sonic repertoire of echo variations and sonic shadows from the percussive instrument box. In their sum, a Wunderkammer of a panaudic, which can be app…
Domotic − the alias used by musician Stéphane Laporte − composed and mixed this new album, Palazzo, at the invitation of Ina GRM, and it is a wonderful addition to a career full of projects and numerous releases. Recorded with his favorite analog synth, the SH01, his four-track MT4X and a Copicat tape echo unit, this electronic piece was subsequently mixed in binaural and stereo
Langlais is a composer and trained piano tuner, and this is reflected in the close attention to acoustics and tone has fed into the creation of these exquisite pieces for two prepared and alternately tuned pianos, with the results then treated to further edits and digital processing.Beautiful spectrums of sound, presented in silk-screened art sleeve by artist Damien Tran.

** original copy ** "...Of course, they are all just 'grains of sand' in the universe of world music - and yet, a grain of sand, a drop of water, can be a symbol of the entire universe. In this way, the title given to his composition by German composer and saxophone player Berndt Konrad - 'To Listen To The World In A Grain Of Sand' - so beautifully expresses what this concert stands for." (from the CD liner notes by Joachim-Ernst Berendt). Live Recorded at the Donaueschingen Musiktage (Contemp…
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…

Killer! Reissue, originally released in 1969. An iconic French free jazz record recorded at Pathé Marconi Studios. On June 27th, 1969, Michel Portal pushed the door of the Pathé Marconi studios. With him were drummers Jacques Thollot and Aldo Romano, bassist Jean-François Jenny-Clark, and pianist Joachim Kühn. They hadn't rehearsed anything, as if entering the studio to record an album without any plan was something normal. The musicians were obviously very used to playing with each other, as th…
** Original 1979 vinyl edition of the album. Few copies available. Sealed copies ** A fantastic album recorded in Italy, but with all the soulful roots of Kalaparusha's earlier years with the AACM – an incredible balance of tone and timing, handled by a quartet - this obscure set features passionate blowing by Kalaparusha Maurice McIntyre (heard on tenor, flute, clarinet, bass clarinet and percussion) along with the little-known Longineu Parson on trumpet, flugelhorn, flute, sopranino and record…
Yusuf Mumin's Journey To The Ancient is an archival treasure from a pivotal figure of the 1960s Cleveland free jazz scene. Drawing from previously unheard recordings preserved in his private collection, the album combines spiritual jazz’s expressive depth with experimental intensity. Featuring Mumin's multi-instrumental performance alongside percussionist William Holmes, it conveys a journey through esoteric, Afro-spiritual soundscapes with moments of serene calm and fiery bursts that reflect Mu…

Music for Piano with Slow Sweep Pure Wave Oscillators explores the acoustic ‘beating’ effects and tuning phenomena of sine waves against piano tones. This new XL version expands the extraordinary listening experience in a work described by Nicolas Horvath as ‘immersive, intense and enigmatic’.

Public Works and Utilities by Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan is the sixth full-length album from the British electronic project helmed by Gordon Chapman-Fox. Returning to the conceptual world of post-war British urban planning, this record shifts focus from spectral nostalgia to the stark realities of public infrastructure’s managed decline, channeling the anxieties and bleak optimism of contemporary Britain through atmospheric electronica and abstract, danceable beats.
The faultless Analog Africa presents another superb reissue project here, this time looking to two rare 1980s gems by Ousmane Kouyate, a master guitarist and heir to the Griot tradition. He was a key figure in Les Ambassadeurs alongside Mory Kante and Salif Keita and helped shape modern Mandingue music with his electrifying take on the genre. The tracks presented here, 'Kefimba' and 'N'Ny' were originally released on cassette and later vinyl but are hard to find. They showcase his funk-infused s…
