L'Oeuvre Electronique
2024 Repress. Incredible 14xCD lavish box set, a 16+ hour compendium of the electronic music key works from one of the most important electronic composers of the 20th century complete with a 106 page book. Born between wars, Eliane Radigue’s musical journey began in the Paris studios of musique concrète OGs Pierre Schaeffer and Pierre Henry during the 1950s and 60s, experimenting with magnetic tapes, honing her craft in sound construction. But it wasn’t until the 1970s when Eliane moved to New Y…

Conceived in a time when analogue sampling meant hours of slicing tape with razor blades, BBC Radiophonic …
Jeito De Ferver
Andreas Trobollowitsch, an Austrian sound artist, explores various rotating mechanical systems to create sound-emitting objects. His work focuses primarily on conceptual compositions, self-developed musical instruments, sound and drawing installations. Thomas Rohrer, a Swiss musician, plays the rabeca, (a Brazilian fiddle), and soprano saxophone. His work is largely based on free improvisation, but also engages in a dialogue with traditional Brazilian music. The collaboration between Trobollowit…
Perception & Friends
Souffle Continu Records present the first ever vinyl reissue of Perception & Friends, originally released in 1973. After their first album which came out in 1971 on Futura Records (FFL 051LP), Perception wanted to rapidly record a second, but Gérard Terronès did not want to produce another, especially so soon after the first. Therefore, the only solution was to produce it themselves. It is thus completely logical that it came out on the label of the Association for the Development of Improvised …

Live in Aston 1977
"Live in Aston 1977" is a completely new lens through which we can see a unique band with a seemingly inexhaustible energy for live performance. It comes at a difficult time for Can; their recently released eighth studio album, 'Saw Delight', was was poorly received and although posterity has been kinder, the reviews at the time of release have been savage. One might expect the live performances of this period to reflect some of the criticism levelled at the album, that they were slowing down, p…
Live In Paris
* 2CD. Includes audio download code.* Mute and Spoon Records present the next instalment of the curated Can live concert series, Live in Paris 1973—the first in the series to feature Damo Suzuki's vocals.

This record captures the band’s 1973 performance in Paris and features Irmin Schmidt on keyb…
Bald Eagle Over Food City
* Edition of 250. In process of stocking * Bald Eagle Over Food City is a blurry zoomed-in photograph of a national bird soaring over a grocery store parking lot. It is an album of thirteen failed portraits attempting to distill the impossible essence of a place that is repeatedly deformed by displacement and extraction, quietly made invisible by milltown charm. Bromp Treb is the solo project of noisemaker and filmmaker Neil ‘Cloaca’ Young, who has been performing and producing small-run release…
Taikuri Tali
Antti Tolvi is a self-taught finnish musician known for his participation in groups like Avarus, Kemialliset Ystävät, Lauhkeat Lampaat, Päivänsäde and Rauhan Orkesteri.
Taikuri Tali is a typical example of finnish psychedelic folk music. A delectable solo work, not so minimalistic, as his first Pianoketo double LP on Fonal records, but a more trippy psychedelic one! His music takes on a meditative quality, with organ melodies & electronic noisy sounds. An amazing work and one of his best.

Fragments of High Sensitivity
Grykë Pyje is a child of a collaboration between Jani Hirvonen (Uton) and Johannes Schebler (Baldruin). This Finnish-German creature is a strange and wonderful one, constantly flickering and blinking with disorienting lights and patterns, creating a strange soundworld closer to the pulsing trippertronics of Astral Social Club than the strange folk sensitivity of both Uton and Baldruin.
Fragments of High Sensitivity is an utterly weird electronic affair, briging together the elements of drone, …
The Newest Historic Site
Bersabea is a collaboration between Niko-Matti Ahti and Birgir Örn Jónsson. The music follows an open-ended inquiry. Improvisations, samples, voices, field recordings and other aural flotsam gets collaged into bite-size pop donuts, and vice versa. Niko-Matti and Birgir live in different countries in the northern hemisphere. The music is stitched together somewhere in between. Nothing is premeditated, nothing is arbitrary. Everything is playful, joy and terror abound. The Newest Historic Site is …

Loveless
* Deluxe Edition Black vinyl in gatefold sleeve, inners + printed inner sleeve * my bloody valentine, the quartet of Bilinda Butcher, Kevin Shields, Deb Googe and Colm Ó Cíosóig, are widely revered as one of the most ground-breaking and influential groups of the past forty years. During an era in which guitar bands denoted, at best, a retro-classicism, not only did my bloody valentine sound unlike any of their contemporaries, the band achieved the rare feat of sounding like the future. The seco…
Desertshore
** LP - Black Vinyl with 4-page booklet. Includes download card ** Desertshore was co-produced by John Cale and Joe Boyd. Unlike its predecessor The Marble Index it incorporates elements from Western traditional pop."Janitor of Lunacy" was composed as a tribute to her friend Brian Jones who died the previous year.

The Marble Index
Nico's second solo album, 1968's 'The Marble Index', has long been out of print. This reissue includes audio mastered from the original tapes and previously unreleased photos of Nico by Guy Webster. Nico's haunting vocals predicted the Gothic movement and co-producer and Velvet Underground's band mate John Cale's startingly modern classical production ensured 'The Marble Index's timeless appeal. The iconic music journalist Lester Bangs wrote, “The Marble Index is the greatest piece of 'avant-gar…
Dondestan (Revisited)
*2024 stock* Originally released in 1991 Dondestan was remixed and reappraised in the studio in 1998 as Dondestan Revisited. Wyatt claimed he ‘ran out of words’, so by basing half of the album’s tracks on her beautifully fragmented lyrics, he began a songwriting collaboration with wife Alfie Benge that continues to flourish to this day.
Future Days
** Recent repress. Comes in embossed sleeve with printed inner sleeve, pressed on heavyweight vinyl. Includes code for free mp3 download of this album** An uneasy truce had been thrashed out by the warring factions of Can by the time they came to record 'Future Days' in 1972, yet it is the underlying musical tension that makes this album such a thrilling part of their cannon... With Damo Suzuki's ethereal vocals continuously juxtaposed by Michael Karoli's fraught guitars and Holger Czulkay's inv…
Monster Movie
Are we there yet? After 25 years of critical reappraisal and at least 15 years of indie and post-rock bands flaunting their influence, has Can finally gotten their just desserts? I don't think so. Not just yet. Can still seem just a little bit ahead of the curve. They really were "post-rock," as opposed to just futuristic. Can's music anticipated both the musical trend toward decontextualization via electronics, post-production, and editing, and the cultural trend toward collective experience an…
Tago Mago
Black vinyl edition You couldn't do much better than beginning with 1971's Tago Mago, freshly reissued in vinyl format. It's a colossus of an album, the product of a band that was thinking huge, pushing itself to its limits, and devoted to breaking open its own understanding of what rock music could be. The core of Can was four German musicians from wildly different backgrounds-- when they initially came together in 1968, two of them had studied with composer Karlheinz Stockhausen, one had play…
