"In April 2023, there was released the first part of the Fluxus edition called Stolen Symphony. The year has come and gone and there is the second part of the Fluxus edition called Keep Together. At the centre of both parts of this edition was a broken piano, acquired by the Opening Performance Orchestra for the purpose of making live and studio recordings. During this time other new works for this broken piano were written by diverse Fluxus and non-Fluxus composers. In the spring of 2022, the O…
The original soundtrack was presented in two different versions, the initial one being restricted to 15 tracks and 50 minutes because of the limitations of the vinyl format. A so-called special edition saw the light on CD in 1998, adding 25 minutes to the program. It included a long suite which was actually a collage partly repeating previously released music. Combining the album tracks with additional music heard in the movie and removing the duplications, a program of more than 78 minutes was …
Temporary Super Offer! *2024 stock* Previously unreleased schizo post-punk/Moogy folk score for the 1983 British scouseploitation TV drama One Summer from the vault of guitarist and composer Alan Parker, best-kept secret session man for Kate Bush, Serge Gainsbourg, and David Bowie. Composed to cue for the five-part series (that TV commissioners were too scared to revisit), Parker's bursts of self-propelled small-screen scoring came in one-to-two-minute spells, allowing Finders Keepers to comfort…
September 23rd is the first release in William Basinski's new Arcadia Archive series. Recorded in September 1982 in his first loft in the pre-gentrified DUMBO neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York, September 23rd is a recently unearthed early entry in what has become a hugely inspirational and influential catalog. Built from a piano piece that Basinski composed in high school in the mid-1970s, September 23rd quickly evolved into a vastly different work. As Basinski explains: "The original piano rec…

Recorded in 1957 when Lee Morgan was only 19, and released on Blue Note in 1958, "Candy" sees the young trumpet genius as leader of a marvelous quartet featuring the infectious rhythm section of Sonny Clark on piano, Doug Watkins on bass and Art Taylor on drums. Being Morgan the only horn he has plenty of space for showing his innate sense of swing and melody. The whole quartet shines throughout a repertoire based entirely on standards including both up tempo numbers and ballads.

Temporary Super Offer! *2024 stock* Gruff Rhys presents the soundtrack for the film Set Fire To The Stars (2014). Although recorded around the same time as Gruff's last LP (2014's hugely acclaimed American Interior), Set Fire To The Stars paints a very different picture to that of the Welsh explorer John Evans. Equal parts cocktail jazz, hazy Americana and atomic age bop, it's a love letter to New York in all its hopeful, post war glory - a gorgeous diversion of a record to add to Gruff's increa…

Through spacious personal hymns exploring the wilderness of deep emotional narrative, Prymek’s long-form compositions and improvisations are boundless meditations on the landscapes, river ways, and wildlife, both external and personal. Perhaps most widely known as a founding member of the group Fuubutsushi, Prymek's work as Lake Mary le…
Tip! *300 copies limited edition* ‘L’album vert’ is a compilation of asynchronous steps for an imaginary dance foor. A strange but amusing place were eyes listen in and ears peek around. Glass breaks, someone stumbles, something always happens. The dancers inevitably hop to moments of tension of which they free themselves again and again. Almost always there is some kind of beat. Not the kind of beat that makes the hips wiggle, but rather the pulse of a crooked factory or a quirky steam engine …
**425 copies, 3-color letterpressed jacket with large 20-page booklet containing the full score and a lengthy interview with the composer** Catherine Lamb’s work is characterized by an insistence on what she calls the “interaction of tone”. Precisely tuned intervals, played slowly at subtle volumes, blend and generate a host of difference and combination tones, phasing, beating and aural illusions. Her ensemble and orchestral compositions have been performed in grand halls and d.i.y. spaces alik…
CD sized paper sleeve album replica, with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese. The album was recorded at the Catoca studio in Rome in a week, under the name of Etna, and contains some absolute pearls of Jazz Rock, with completely personal and absolutely Mediterranean flavors and musicality. The album is a perfect blend of rock, jazz, funky, free, played with great technique and vituosity, with many references to Bitches Brew era Miles Davis and early-70s Soft Machine
In this album y…
With rpm, we wanted to join some of the dots of Philip Jeck's life and involve many other collaborators, early and more recent. Fennesz was a friend and kindred spirit on the same label. Claire M Singer formed a new chemistry and partnership and although their plans must now take a different form, Mary found some sketches Philip had laid out using Claire's organ recordings, for further development. Faith Coloccia & Philip had already released Stardust on Touch in 2021. Their live performance tog…
