A l'approche du Feu Méditant
Of all the works by Jean-Claude Eloy, the 1983 "Approaching the Meditative Flame...", for 27 instrumentalists of the "Gagaku" orchestra from Japan, and two choruses of "Shômyô" Buddhist monks (a work known partially in the West by a double LP album "Harmonia Mundi") and more particularly, "Anâhata", for five traditional soloists from Japan (three instrumentalists and two monk singers), percussions, and a major electro-acoustic part (presented in different festivals in Europe) – are the two works…

Går I Kras
Går I Kras is the fourth album from the Gothenburg-trio Amateur Hour that consists of Hugo Randulv, Julia Bjernelind and Dan Johansson. While in many ways continuing where the massive Krökta Tankar Och Brända Vanor double left off in 2022, the new 11-song album is arguably the most accessible and refined recording yet from the group, with some of their strongest tracks to date. Still blending dreamy lo-fi pop music with electronics and crude sound collages, The Cannanes through a meatgrinder and…
Sudden Dusk
Sudden Dusk is the recorded debut of Archer, a working band comprised of four singular voices on the international improvised music scene.

Arv & Miljö
Biiig Tip! Edition of 300. The LP comes with a 12-page booklet. The final album from Arv & Miljö consists of two sidelong pieces based almost entirely on field recordings. The recordings roughly span from 2014 to 2024 and were primarily recorded in Gothenburg, capturing life-affirming moments from an intense decade through snippets from endless summer nights out, great people desperately wanting more from life, hazy underground culture encounters and just random, confusing everyday nonsense that…
Contempo
Among one of the most sought after english dub albums, Black Jade Contempo is still somewhat of a mystery. Definitely ahead of its time, their deeper dub style was very sophisticated indeed. The material was originally recorded between 1975-76 and then collected in their self-produced debut. The vinyl first appearance was at the Notting Hill Carnival in the summer of 1976, where the band – apparently – was freely distributing it on the streets !
I - Kamermuziek
Biggest Tip! "Muziekkamer is a minimalwave project by Martin Keuning and Cees van de Oever, based in Leiden, the Netherlands, in the 1980s. The first album, 'I' (aka Kamermuziek), is a self-healing calm unified by hushed-toned electric guitars and faint synths, while the second album is a more experimental and pop minimalist/electronic sound, similar to Kubus Kassettes' work. The guitar harmonics are hazy. The long, dreamy parts, with a vague layers of guitar harmonics, is one of the best ambien…
Holiday for Sampler
** One-time pressing edition limited to 250 copies. ** In April 2011 Giuseppe Ielasi and Andrew Pekler met for a three day recording session at Pekler's studio in Berlin. In a comfortable atmosphere and with a minimum of preparation, the two artists endeavored to find common musical ground through their shared interests in sample manipulation, layering the texture and improvisation. Some months later Ielasi auditioned the recordings and then mixed down his favorite passages. To a few of these se…
Drama of Exile
Nico’s iconic post-Velvets return to rock! As one critic memorably put it, when Nico spoke it was like coffin-lids creaking. When she sang it was like listening to ravens taking off 13 at a time. Nico was like nothing rock music had ever seen or heard before or since. In Paris in the seven year gap between the recording of The End and the release of Drama Of Exile, Nico appeared to be doing little more than feeding a heavy heroin habit. When she met Aura Records founder Aaron Sixx after a gig th…
