Two long pieces from the turn of the millennium, Gärten Der Lüste (1999-2000) and L'Innominata (2000), each in two sections, with the early Cybernetics II (1969) set between them on the first disc. Thirty years of Kayn's electronic practice in a single pairing.
The third volume, six pieces from 1986 to 1996 across two discs: Cybernetic Serendipity, Transfluxion and Syntropie on the first, An Artificial Acoustic Environment, Syzygy Dynamical Units and Equivalence Sonor I on the second. A decade of self-regulating systems at work.
The second volume of Kayn's cybernetic works, a single CD holding two long pieces: Assemblage (1984) and Refractions (1995). Music not composed and practised but set going, arising from merged control loops and feedback in a system that can be entirely autonomous.
The first volume of Kayn's cybernetic works: Ready-Made I and II (1982) on one disc, Collage and Decollage (1984) on the other. Four long pieces that arise, in the composer's words, from the interplay of merged control loops setting a process into motion.
The close of the cycle: Electronic Symphony VIII (1978-98) and the single-year Symphony IX (1999) on the first disc, Symphony X (1982-99) in two sections on the second. Thirty years of Kayn's generative studio work arriving at its last and largest statements.
Electronic Symphony VI (1982-97) on the first disc, Symphony VII (1984-98) and Frottage II (1996) on the second. Two of the longest gestations in the cycle, worked over fifteen years and left to a self-regulating electronic system to concrete in real time.
Electronic Symphony V (1977-97) in two sections, one per disc, each paired with one of the Emissioni Trasformati of 1996. Twenty years of revision folded into music that a complex autonomous electronic system concreted in real time, beyond any traceable authorship.
Electronic Symphony IV (1988-96) unfolds over four sections across two discs, joined by Frottage and Minimax, both from 1996. Sound generated in real time by an autonomous electronic system: since the process cannot be retraced, the recording itself stands in for the score.
The first instalment of the ten Electronic Symphonies: Symphony I (1966-96), II (1970-96) and III (1971-97), with Equivalence Sonore II and III from 1995. Pieces concreted in real time by a complex autonomous electronic system, a process Kayn documented rather than composed.

In stock! Anguished atmosphere, obsessive mechanical patterns, dark disturbing music: in short, this is what we call a Masterpiece! "Back in 1971, when this real gem of electronic experimentation was released, the term “cybernetic” was used to refer to the future. Or, at least, to an obscure science in the hands of a few experts, conducting experiments in rooms filled with huge electronic calculators. Automated controls, auto-regulation, information theory… those were abstract, uncommon and rare…
Legendary Japanese experimentalist Keiji Haino (Fushitsusha) and London's fearless drummer Steve Noble took to the stage at Cafe OTO in 2012 for a monumental concert - with Haino's extreme treatments of electric guitar, and feedback, with Noble on a lot of percussion...
While Haino theatrically sweeps between bleak and uninhibited paranoia, deep-level zoning and bluesy contemplation, Noble's huge set up and graceful approach brings space, light and shade - so much so that at one point Haino unpl…
Reissued after decades, this remastered Cold Spring collection showcases Psychic TV’s soundtrack work for Derek Jarman’s films. Featuring ritual soundscapes, field recordings, drones, and chants, it’s a haunting, essential document of avant-garde artistry.
Gatefold cover. Grey-area reissue. Animated sci-fi masterpiece La Planète Sauvage (a.k.a. Fantastic Planet), winner at Cannes Film Festival in 1973, is a bizarre and beautiful film. Towering blue-skinned figures, tiny humanoids in the midst of revolt, and drug-induced Tantric sex transport viewers to a truly magical setting. Composer Alain Goraguer creates an equally hypnotic score from a palette of effects-laden guitars, flutes, Fender Rhodes and strings. While the lush arrangements are reminis…
**2026 Remastered Repress** Gatefold edition with OBI and poster! Recorded in the summer of 1973 on an 8-track Ampex at Sound Work-Shop, the studio Piero Umiliani had built in his own building on Via S. Tommaso d'Aquino in Rome, To-Day's Sound documents a moment when Umiliani had concentrated, in a single eighty-square-metre room, an arsenal of electronic instruments still uncommon in Italian recording at the time: Minimoog, ARP 2600, EMS VCS3, Fender Rhodes, Clavinet, Lowrey organ, Space Echo, …
This bundle includes the following albums:Piero Umiliani "La ragazza dalla pelle di luna" (LP, 1972)Piero Umiliani "La ragazza fuoristrada" (LP, 1973)Piero Umiliani "Il corpo" (LP, 1974)Piero Umiliani "Psichedelica" (LP, 1968)The Braen's Machine "Underground" (LP, 1971)
Few composers captured the eclectic beauty of Italy’s golden age of soundtracks like Piero Umiliani. A master of mood, texture, and subtext, Umiliani created a vast discography that blurred the lines between jazz, lounge, funk, p…
Digging deep into the catalog of Cramps records, Dialogo returns with another stunning entry in their reissue series dedicated to the seminal imprint, the Croatian composer Martin Davorin Jagodić’s 1975 masterstroke, "Tempo Furioso (Tolles Wetter)". A bristling work of monumental scale at the vanguard of electroacoustic composition and musique concrète, its stunning two sides, created by his sinfully under-recognized associate of Groupe de Recherches Musicales, reshapes history at every turn. Is…
At long last, after decades out of print, joining their growing Cramps Records Reissue Series, Dialogo brings us the long-awaited vinyl reissue of Alvin Lucier's "Bird and Person Dyning", the composer's first solo LP. As legendary as they come, and easily among the most important and groundbreaking efforts in experimental music ever recorded, this is Lucier at his most visionary. Issued in a limited edition of 300 copies of black vinyl, with fully remastered audio, housed in a sleeve that beauti…
Marking what will inevitably be a holy grail moment for fans of Italian library music, and an inevitale revelation for anyone approaching it for the first time, the venerable Dialogo returns to their broader initiative dedicated to the Italian arm of RCA’s legendary “Original Cast” series with the first ever vinyl reissue of “Industria 2000”, an astounding 1974 LP created by the legendary Italian pianist and composer, Amedeo Tommasi, under the moniker Jarrell. Regarded by many as one of the grea…
The holy grail of all the drum-breaks library LP, a true "cult" among DJ and producers, is available again in a faithful replica of the original gatefold sleeve and remastered from the original master tapes. Tullio De Piscopo is a drummer extraordinaire, a constant in Italian music, moving effortlessly between pop, jazz, rock and progressive modes. This record from 1974 could be thought of as the ultimate promulgation of his talent and versatility as a musician, though maybe not quite the ‘Pract…
