Observations
On Observations, eRikm and Pierre Bastien stage a tightly focused encounter between hacked turntables and mechanical orchestra, sculpting trance‑like, Dubuffet‑dirty rhythms and razor‑sharp details from one hyper‑attentive night in Brussels.
The Unreleased Themes For Hellraiser
Nearly four decades after the fact, the full story of Coil's aborted commission for Clive Barker's Hellraiser can finally be heard - and it is every bit as extraordinary as the legend suggested. The Unreleased Themes for Hellraiser [expanded ritual], released by Mental Groove Records / Musique Pour La Danse, is the definitive edition of one of experimental music's most mythologised what-ifs: a lost soundtrack now restored, expanded, and assembled into a coherent and deeply unsettling whole.

Words & Music (The Last Bandstand)
Tip! "A small gift for a great Cecil Taylor history. On 23 April 2016, Jay Sanders organised and recorded a concert whose significance at the time was impossible to estimate. The great Cecil Taylor was accompanied by the wonderful musicians Okkyung Lee, Tony Oxley, Harri Sjostrom and Jackson Krall. After the concert, Cecil announced that it was time to return to the legendary formula he had used several times in his career, which served as an emblem of what was particularly important in his work…

Gungala La Pantera Nuda
Orange Vinyl. A hidden gem that earns its name. The original Cinevox pressing of this 1968 soundtrack existed in such a limited edition that few collectors ever held a copy - until now. Ruggero Deodato - then still years away from the notoriety of Cannibal Holocaust - directed Gungala La Pantera Nuda, the second entry in the Italian jungle-girl series starring Kirsten Svanholm, better known as Kitty Swan, a Danish model and acrobat briefly claimed by the Italian B-movie circuit of the late Sixti…
Métaphysique Du Hit-Parade
I first encountered Pascal Comelade’s music thirty years ago—and nothing has sounded quite the same since. I was immediately captivated: he is an artist like no other, whose sincere and selfless love of music is always evident, especially in his tender reworkings of other people’s songs. Comelade seems to work like a watchmaker: meticulous, precise, and obsessive—yet always drifting into something dreamlike. His music opens hidden doors, telling strange and beguiling stories filled with obscurit…
Spheres Collapser
Black Vinyl. XKatedral, in collaboration with La Becque Editions, announces a new album from Stephen O'Malley, co-founder of SUNN O))). Les Sphères (effondrez-les) presents two long-form compositions for pipe organ, performed by O'Malley alongside Kali Malone and Frederikke Hoffmeier. Recorded on Christmas 2021 at Église Saint-François in Lausanne, Switzerland, the album captures Les Grandes Orgues, an instrument of extraordinary lineage: Scherrer (1777), Walker (1867), Kuhn (1995). Three centur…
Connecters Vol. 1: Original Recordings, 1992–1999
Larrison’s Connecters Vol. 1: Original Recordings, 1992–1999 rescues a lone CZ‑5000 and one quietly obsessive mind from cassette oblivion, revealing 26 miniatures where lo‑fi space‑age pop, DIY synth craft and daydream cinema gently fold into each other.
Re-Make Re-Model
With what might just be the richest immersion for the combined senses of the ears, eyes, and mind that we encounter in 2026, Marhaug Forlag returns with "Re-Make Re-Model", a stunning collaboration between Lasse Marhaug and Bruce Russell. Issued as a beautifully produced, highly limited Book / 2CD edition, capturing these two legendary artists mining the other's deep catalog of recordings, reworking an astounding 16 tracks into more than 100 minutes of blistering, radically experimental music, w…
Future Present Past
Future Present Past is the second Impulse! Records album by the free jazz collective Irreversible Entanglements. The album was largely recorded at the historic Van Gelder Studio and showcases how the quintet fuses atmospheric jazz, world music traditions, and spoken word with the story of our collective existence: a future full of possibilities, a present with all its uncertainties, and a past as a source of ancestral wisdom.
Irreversible Entanglements, formed in Brooklyn in 2015, consists of p…
Live At Hachioji Alone
On Live at Hachioji Alone, Shudan Sokai document Tokyo free jazz at the moment it moves to the city’s western margins: exuberant quartet music where loft‑sharpened fire, song forms and nursery‑rhyme mischief collide in a tiny Hachioji club.

40 Days of Silence
* Lucky restock, few available! * The threshold between field recording and composed music, between documentary and pure abstraction - 40 Days Of Silence occupies that narrow and precise territory which only the most rigorous practitioners of sound art dare to inhabit.
Jacob Kirkegaard belongs to a generation of Scandinavian artists - alongside figures like CM von Hauswolff, Thomas Köner, and Helge Sten - for whom sound is neither decoration nor effect, but a means of confronting otherwise unrea…
Phew
Why did so many of the world’s most forward-thinking musicians gravitate toward Conny Plank’s studio at that time? Released in 1981, Phew was recorded at the legendary Conny’s Studio—home to seminal works by Kraftwerk, Neu!, D.A.F., and Brian Eno—featuring Phew, formerly of Aunt Sally.
The album brings together Can members Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit, whose contributions, combined with Plank’s masterful engineering and Czukay’s innovative editing techniques, result in a strikingly original …
Agate
Tip! Kitchen. Label is proud to present Agate, the latest album by Japanese artist Meitei, marking a deepening of the world he first shaped through his Kofū trilogy released between 2020 - 2023. Named after the mineral agate, a stone formed through slow accumulation, pressure, and time, the album reflects Meitei’s patient approach to sound. Agate brings together extended and newly rearranged works from across the Kofū cycle alongside new compositions and passages, refining material developed thr…
Luna Cinese
At long last, after decades out of print, the Milan based imprint, Dialogo, dives into the legendary catalog of Cramps, bringing forth the first ever vinyl reissue of Costin Miereanu's "Luna Cinese", part of an ongoing initiative dedicated to bring the imprint’s seminal output back into the light. Easily one of the most singular and important experimental albums of the 1970s that remains as engrossing, creatively riveting, and as ahead of its time today as it was in 1975, this is as exciting as …
Dalbergia Retusa
Extraordinary double LP of solo guitar music by Hans Reichel (1949-2011), curated by Oren Ambarchi. Twenty-three pieces from 1973-1988 documenting Reichel's radical instrumental rethinking: custom-built guitars with additional strings, moveable pickups, special capos. Sounds simultaneously strange and beautiful, from romantic lyricism to alien sonorities. Essential.
Amiri Baraka / The Jihad
Originally released in New York in 1968 on Baraka's own Jihad label, "Black and Beautiful Soule and madness" is a fiery document of the 1960s. It could be mistaken for a lost ESP-Disk release, sitting well between Sun Ra / the Fugs/ and Albert Ayler. The group was vocal in all the ways; sometimes singing, Doo-wop & Soul, sometimes rapping in a Last Poets-style, often doing both at the same time. Emotionally compelling and extremely powerful,we are proud to have it back in print on vinyl for the …
This Heat
"There's an irony inherent in the term 'postpunk.' Many of the groups that define the genre (think Pere Ubu or Cabaret Voltaire) existed for several years before punk. But these outfits had little hope of finding an audience until punk stirred up an appetite for the extreme, while also spawning a new breed of independent labels that could support challenging music. " This Heat are a prime example. Formed in early 1976 by drummer Charles Hayward, guitarist Charles Bullen and 'non-musician' Garet…
Unfold
(Last Copies!) 2026 small repress. Ideologic Organ present Unfold, brand-new recordings from The Necks, the legendary Australian trio who excel in bypassing musical cliche whilst exploring and extending the practices embedded within improvisation, jazz, post rock, ambient, minimal, and textural, "sound based" music. The latest document from this long-running ensemble presents itself as a double LP, with four side-length tracks. A deliberate absence of numbered sides hands a substantial swatch of…
