Entering Omar Cheikh’s world feels like crossing a holy portal, the micro‑rhythms of a slow‑growth forest and the lush density of countless light prisms quietly echoing distant songs. ‘The Garden’, his first release for Maple Death, weaves a near-ritualistic, emotionally saturated atmosphere, shaped by organic folk elements, somber instrumentation, and lingering industrial textures. Every detail is finely etched yet the song architectures maintain a liquid form, projecting geometrical figures th…
Devotional music most often gets distilled into earthy chants and ancient folklore, it doesn't always ascend to the sky like Julinko’s ‘Naebula’ an album that from the first organ note clearly trades in terrestrial dreams for ethereal visions. A feverish quality permeates the whole record, as if a ritualistic performance was being captured from start to finish, a collection of hallucinatory doom, synthetic neo-folk hymns and ghostly art-rock. Julinko, stage name for Giulia Parin Zecchin, has lon…
Mai Mai Mai’s artistic path has never rested on laurels, it’s been a constant evolution, a profound and poetic research, a dark and dusty journey through awareness and collaborations where the heart of the process has always been about building connections and understanding people and their rituals. Mai Mai Mai’s new album ‘Karakoz’ was mostly recorded in Palestine (Ramallah and Bethlehem) in 2024 during an ongoing genocide and follows his acclaimed Southern Gothic double-album ‘Rimorso’. The al…
Like the emerald merkiness emerging from the cover photograph, Bono / Burattini’s new album ‘Ora Sono Un Lago’ transcends elements, a tenacious and brooding collection of work that testifies the duo’s growth and ghostly ability to immerse kosmische landscapes, stripped electronica and oscillatory psychedelia and emerge with songs meticulously constructed, dense and unforgiving, full of richly assembled textures and echoed out other-worldly choirs. Some might call it confessional mysticism. ‘Ora …
“Viator” is as skeletal as it is instantly recognizable. Following the inception of the unmistakable post-power electronics cubist-Latin-blues that kept Adrián de Alfonso busy during his Don The Tiger days, the first album under his own name is a ruthless step forward into a new form of avant-garde balladry, raw and stripped down, poetic yet enchanting, anchored in a sort of stubborn and repetitive primitivism, which synthesizes the future rituals of a stateless tradition. "Viator" consists main…
Black Vinyl. Limited to only 350 copies. Anroid Sisters’s Songs of Electronic Despair is a cult classic of experimental synth-pop and cosmic satire, reissued by Wah Wah Records in a lovingly restored edition.

Originally issued in 1970 within the third suite of LPs comprising Deutsche Grammophon's Avant-Garde series, the French composer and electroacoustic pioneer Luc Ferrari's Presque Rien No.1 / Société II stands among the most important and groundbreaking albums issued within the canon of 20th Century avant-garde and experimental music. Containing two radically distinct works, Presque Rien No.1 (1967-1970) and Société II (1967), it doubles as a near perfect illumination of the incredible range of c…
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* In the depths of Geneva’s Fonderie Kugler red-lit-boudoir, stand four grand pianos surrounded by divinities. The two elder Erard brothers are tuned down a quarter tone lower than their neighbours, a twin pair of gleaming and valiant Yamaha’s. Charlemagne and Seppe both sit facing each other, managing the 428Hz tuning from the tip of their left hand, while the right hand controls the conventional 440Hz machine. This four-piano fantasy was born a few years ago, w…

Released in 1972 on Kama Sutra, Hard Attack is a heavy rock burner from New York trio Dust. Packed with searing riffs, wild energy, and the powerhouse drumming of Marc Bell (later Marky Ramone), it’s a raw, intense listen that still hits with full force. A true cult classic.

Biggest Tip! ** 250 copies. Deluxe LP comes complete with a 20pp booklet * The long-anticipated LP of folk songs from Ukraine’s Mykolaiv region — one of the worst affected by Russia’s invasion. - The Black Sea folklore of Mykolaiv is a women’s history in song: neglected by folklorists and ethnologists for the area’s late settlement and mixed ethnic composition. This LP corrects that oversight.
Collected over the last decade by the young musician and ethnographer, Tetiano Chukno, these recording…

Lucky restock, few copies available Within our little bubble of avant-garde, experimental, and underground sound, with its endless web of recordings from the past and present day, it can be easy to forget that these contexts are rarely as hermitic as they seem. Many of the great creative accomplishments of the last century have been a result of interdisciplinary conversation - the marriage between image, action, and sound - collaborations reaching toward new forms of “total” art. This is partic…

Drawn from a body of over a hundred, never before issued DIY recordings, made by the band during during the period between 1980 to 1987, across the LPs two side unfurls some of the greatest, unheard post-punk and indie pop ever made behind the Iron Curtain.
