Once
From the bizarre Polish-cinema-inspired imagery of the album’s artwork to the private-press aesthetics of the original LP, the Once soundtrack has long been a mysterious artifact among rare film and electronic music collectors alike. Written and directed by ‘the father of virtual reality’, the obscure art film is an allegorical tale of‘Creation’ and ‘Destruction’ and the battle for humanity. With no surviving prints of the film traced to date, allthat remains is the remarkable soundtrack. Compos…
Mane Thecel Phares
*Re-press edition of 200 copies - Exceptional slab of squashed, Afro-centric psychedelia and hypnotic Footwork from Low Jack’s Editions Gravats label made in an edition of 350 copies* Low Jack and Jean Carval’s Gravats label open 2015 with a killer new album from prolific psych-drone artist High Wolf under his Black Zone Myth Chant alias. ‘Mane Thecel Phares’ is a wigged-out trip thru Afro-centric, riddim-driven psychedelia, breaking down the boundaries between Sun Ra, DJ Screw, and Vox P…
Il Museo Selvatico
Original copy of the long out of print LP album. Outstanding late 80s LP by Massimo Toniutti, brother of Giancarlo Toniutti. Using recorded sounds from the Friulian mountains as raw material, Toniutti is able to form a hazy, melancholy fog all around the album, entirely made by concrete sounds and manipulated field recordings, run through with riveting tension, enigmatic beauty and smoldering emotions. Il Museo Selvatico was released on vinyl by Idanna in 1991, and it comes with two inserts, on…
Live At Club Boltax, NYC, Oct. 13, 1979
Limited to only 45 hand-numbered copies on black vinyl with a photo and notes on the cover. Great obscure recordings from an equally obscure quintet led by Coltrane's drummer Rashied Ali. Available here for the first time.
Cosmos 2043
Bernard Roger Fevre was making far-out electronic music when most of you readers were still a twinkle in your parent's eye. Cosmos 2043 is clearly an album which is based on space travel, a collection of sounds inspired by the boundless possibilities of the universe. This was Fevre's third LP and his second for the legendary Musax label, rated by most as his finest moment and a true step forwards for synthesizer music given its 1977 release date. Right from the start of "Space Team" and a…
Radio Vietnam
Radio is an audio compass; the radio antennae, a divining rod. Positioned anywhere, it opens an exclusive window directly into the location in which it sits. Signals received on the medium wave (AM) and FM bands reveal programming intended for a local population by governmental, independent, pirate, or corporate media broadcasters. Anything from low-powered ethnic minority transmissions, high-powered westernized pop stations, and omnipresent state-run radio can be found on these bands. Sh…
Disco Dildar
DIY disco from the Pakistani pop workshop. Never ones to merely scrape the surface of a niche genre, Finders Keepers Records dig deeper still into the core of the Indian subcontinent, exhuming a concise party pack of opulent, off-center Pakistani party targets driven by the pounding drum box rhythms of some of Lollywood pop's most notorious studio scientists. Disco Dildar features rare plugged-in proxy pop from some of the country's lesser-known teen flicks spanning the late 1970s and '80…

The complete tape music
Tape music fans pay attention now, this re-issue of Dutch tape-pioneer Dick Raaijmakers’ complete tape work is about as crucial as it gets. Basta has long been making a name for itself issuing shockingly well-presented boxsets of the early electronic music of Raymond Scott among others, but this triple disc package is a real revelation. Dick Raaijmakers may not be a household name to many of you; he didn’t have the profile of Iannis Xenakis or Karlheinz Stockhausen or the semi-mainstream pull of…

November
RRRrestocked!! This is a recording of a major work that has been lost to history for fifty years, as well as one of the most substantial and significant pieces of the minimalist repertoire. Written in 1959 by Dennis Johnson, November was purportedly six hours long as originally conceived. La Monte Young, who knew Johnson while at UCLA in the late 50s, credited the piece for inspiring The Well-Tuned Piano. November was the magnum opus of a heavily abbreviated career, but one that left a large…

Haikagura
Rusting metal junk, discarded as trash by a world that saw no value in it, but when filled with blood, flesh and bone it can be transformed into potent sources of energy. Those chunks of energy are designed to rouse once more our savage souls, to drag us out of our comfortable everyday reality into an imaginary world. TNB present us with a choking, vacuum-like, hermetically sealed space where you utterly lose touch with your senses, whereas ABH dwell with our senses then push them towards freedo…
Biomechanoid
2015 limited repress. Biomechanoid is the classic 1980 album by composer and flutist Joel Vandroogenbroeck. It’s 1980, in Munich, Germany, upstart production music label Coloursound Library releases their debut album. Capitalising on the success of Ridley Scott’s Alien film, the label dropped Biomechanoid, featuring cover art commissioned by HR Giger – whose horrific Necronom IV lithograph served as the basis for the design of Alien – and the music of the relatively unknown Joel Vandroogenbroeck…
Territory
Truly amazing LP featuring musicians from Toad, France, Sourdure etc. on bagpipes, double bass, guitar, lap-steel,violin, frequency generators, percussions, tambourine and more. "Tanz Mein Herz sees Sauvage and Tilly joined by members of Toad, compatriots who use regional folk instruments like the French bagpipes and violin in order to create monolithic folk/drone constructs, as well as guitarist and bass player Pierre Bujeau. Territory underlines their commitment to the sounding of specific spa…
Monoblock's and 200 Tracks b/w TQ80108
Ben Vida is one of the most interesting experimental electronics musicians in New York right now. His work with sound is quite astonishing and idiosyncratic. Closer in purpose to sound art. His stock as a recording artist has risen over the last couple of years thanks to high-profile collaboration with Keith Fullerton Whitman and brilliant album "esstends-esstends-esstends" for PAN Records. "Monoblock..." is quite an advanced listening reminding of the work by likeminded musicians, such a…
