By 1982, the partnership between director Bruno Corbucci and actor Tomas Milian had produced one of Italian popular cinema's most beloved characters: Nico Giraldi, the fast-talking, slang-hurling Roman inspector whose misadventures anchored the so-called "delitti" series. Delitto Sull'Autostrada was its third chapter - and Franco Micalizzi, who had been the series' musical voice from the start, returned to take it somewhere new. Musica Per Immagini's reissue is its first ever appearance on vinyl…
The third album by the legendary Bahian trio, originally released in 1975 on Odeon and finally back on vinyl. One of the most spiritually charged records to emerge from Brazil during the military dictatorship years. Hold on to your hats. Os Tincoãs - Mateus Aleluia, Heraldo and Dadinho - came from Cachoeira, in the Recôncavo Baiano, a region steeped in Afro-Brazilian traditions where Candomblé terreiros and Catholic chapels existed side by side, where sacred rhythms passed from generation to gen…
Creatively visionary and groundbreaking on numerous terms, 1973 'Os Tincoãs' revolutionized Brazilian music by harmonizing Afro-religious singing, heavenly vocal harmonies, and frawing on Yoruba mythology, Samba, Capoeira chants and spiritual songs.
At long last, after decades out of print, the Milan based imprint, Dialogo, dives into the legendary catalog of Cramps, bringing forth the first ever vinyl reissue of Costin Miereanu's "Luna Cinese", part of an ongoing initiative dedicated to bring the imprint’s seminal output back into the light. Easily one of the most singular and important experimental albums of the 1970s that remains as engrossing, creatively riveting, and as ahead of its time today as it was in 1975, this is as exciting as …
"I envision this music as emanating from a moon inhabited by otherworldly life forms and ecosystems; these sounds as evoking the moon’s topographies, beings, lunar rivers, and strands of light — as if this moon’s essence were itself sonic, vibrational matter. Musically and acoustically, strands of lunar light departs from a set of tones corresponding to a confined harmonic series segment of a very low fundamental frequency: 5.15 hertz. Through twelve continuous sections, each employing various m…
Tip! The final two LPs in the latest Ictus batch, “The Ictus Archives Vol. 1” and “The Ictus Archives Vol. 2”, both draw on the same period that the veteran saxophonist produced “Clangs” and “Trio Live”, both recorded in 1976 during of two weeks that he was touring Italy with Andrea Centazzo, released in 1976 and 77 respectively, and reissued in 2021’s batch. Gathering four sides of material, issued as two individual LPs, we are offered an incredible insight into that moment’s striking collabo…

Latin funk at its finest. A kingpin player of Miami’s Cuban music scene, Ray Fernandez, brought together his ‘court’ for this sensational Afro-Cuban funk triumph. Largely a family affair, the album features his wife, two sons and a range of other talented musicians including Rickey Washington on saxophone, father of the contemporary jazz maestro Kamasi Washington. Originally released in 1973 on Manuel J. Mato’s iconic and collectible Sound Triangle Records, Ray & His Court is a dose of Miami hea…
*200 copies limited edition* Sound artist, instrument builder and field recordist, Diane Barbé makes their return on forms of minutiae with “musiques tourbes”, a weaving of wetland soundscapes and biomimicking synthesis.

*100 copies limited edition* Notes from the nave is the debut album by 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗦. - Michiel Dondeyne’s alter ego. It’s a musical correspondence from the refuge of an introvert: the ‘nave’ - or the middle part - of a church in Antwerp, Belgium. It’s there, where he established the improvisations on piano that sprouted this album. Loose ideas became the blueprint of extended collages, wherein piano, subtle loops and samples conflate with the cello of Clémence Clarysse and the tenor saxophone…
Les Poumons Gonflés finds Etron Fou Leloublan at their most joyously unhinged: jagged rhythms, rasping horns and yelped vocals tumbling through songs that splice punk urgency, free improvisation and absurdist theatre into something uniquely volatile.
On their self‑titled debut, Moving Gelatine Plates fuse Canterbury whimsy with French jazz‑rock bite: knotty horn lines, fuzz bass and nimble drumming tumbling through tunes that are as playful as they are technically fearless.
Anubis’s self‑titled release dives into shadowy progressive terrain: long‑form compositions, minor‑key harmonies and ritualistic grooves evoking a journey through underworld myth where 70s prog, psych and cinematic doom intersect.
Subversion’s lone self‑titled effort is a jagged artefact of post‑punk dissent: sharp‑edged guitars, brittle rhythms and urgent, slogan‑skewering vocals carving out songs that feel like manifestos scribbled in the margins of a collapsing system.
