Live At De Audio Plant
*50 copies limited edition* Live cd recorded at De Audio Plant in Antwerp in September 2025. This show was the release event for our Wonderful Brutalism lp that came out in the same month. Just like that record, this cd continues to investigate our combination of the taishogoto with Dirk’s drums and percussion. A sound described as singular by some and brutal by others. We will be hitting the studio in the nearby future to further examine the possibilty of our duo and for all we know this may be…
The Flicker
*50 copies limited edition* "Tony Conrad has always been a constant inspiration for both Glen and myself and one of the main reasons we started making drone music in the first place. When Paul Williams contacted me last year about the relaunch of Table Of The Elements, I proposed a screening of the Tony Conrad documentary followed by a performance of our duo Mertens & Steenkiste. As a filmmaker myself, I wondered if it would be possible for us to score one of Tony’s films, more specifically his …

Majestic Noise Made in Beautiful Rotten Iran
It's an all electronic affair, harmonically maximalist, predominantly symphonic synthetic, requiring active listening. Some pieces function as challengers of musical structural habits, provoking the short attention span culture, others present
a problem-solution scenario, collectively via
a neoteric noise aesthetic and detailed melodic weaving. Ultimately, the objective was to engineer an assortment of works full of sound, euphonic and vivid in nature.
Hip Harp
*2026 repress!* Born in Detroit in 1932 Dorothy Ashby can be easily recognized as the woman who gave the harp a Jazz voice. In her hands, the harp, an originally classical instrument which seemed to just scare people, became a highly versatile swinging voice able to drive a whole jazz rhythm section. Recorded in 1958 by master Rudy Van Gelder and originally released on the Prestige label, Hip Harp is a perfect example of Ashby’s artistry. At the head of a fine quartet featuring the great Frank …

These deftly paced pieces enhance the artist's now highly evolved and nuanced sonic palettes, venturing thoughtfully into warm and hypnotic sound fields merging two very unique approaches to abstract guitar Sedimental’s connection with these artists is long running, having released the final Weird Weeds album in 2012 that featured both Rus…
Yellow Carcass In The Blue

This rare leader album captures Kasai at her peak, blending her husky, soulful voice with avant-garde improvisation and fusion grooves, featuring standout tracks like the title song—Masabumi Kikuchi's composition elevated by Kasai's…
String Quartets
Rand Steiger’s Introspective Trilogy is a series of string quartets with electronics composed over a period of eight years for the JACK Quartet. Reflecting on emotional states through musical expression, the quartets explore intense feelings of anger, frustration, and despair in response to alarming political developments in the U.S. and globally, from 2016 when the project began, to catastrophic recent developments. Steiger relates the resurgence of xenophobia and well-known elements of authori…
Désert Méditerranéen
The pianistic writing of Giorgos Koumendakis represents a rare encounter of delicacy, intellectual concentration, and profound compositional coherence. It belongs to a free post-modernity, rooted in the continuity of certain Eastern European composers who developed an independent and original modernity. The cycle Mediterranean Desert, which forms the central axis of this album, is a work for piano consisting of 22 pieces inspired by Mediterranean flora and fauna. It offers a distinctive sound ma…
Kyoto 1970
Edition of 400. Wired was an ephemeral improvisational music project formed by Michael Ranta, Karl-Heinz Böttner, and Mike Lewis. On 28 April 1970, the trio recorded an extended studio session of approximately 140 minutes, in collaboration with Conny Plank, who engineered and mixed the recording in real time, incorporating elements of live electronics. This session was subsequently edited to album length and released in 1974 as part of the Free Improvisation 3LP box set issued by Deutsche Grammo…
Hubris
** 2026 Repress ** First released in 2016 and long out of print, Hubris has come to feel like a pivot in Oren Ambarchi’s catalogue - the moment when his fascination with groove, repetition and ensemble friction finally detonated into something both overwhelming and weirdly precise. This new edition gives that record the sonic treatment it always deserved. Working from the original mixes, mastering engineer Joe Talia revisits the album with what can only be called forensic care, teasing out layer…
Fraction Sur Le Temps
At last, in stock now!! Urban Sax's third LP was recorded in 1982 & 1985, and released in 1985 on Celluloid, and it is an absolute diamond - sharing Julian Cope words "Everything starts with this massive (and I mean it...we're basically talking about something the size of an orchestra here) wash of sound, like something dropped wholesale out of the trippier parts of Ligeti's material in the "2001" soundtrack. Then we get swept into the primal repetition of a simple motif...very Magma-like, save …
Mille-feuilles
*300 copies limited edition* Combining the lyricism of chamber music, the raw tones of punk and metal, the clarity of post-rock, and the abstraction of electroacoustic music, Dionée offers a unique, cinematic musical journey. The trio, with its colorful instrumentation, delivers with Mille-feuilles an astonishing, orchestral‑sounding work in which oboe, accordion, and electric bass converse with a range of electronic instruments and effects.
Dialoghi del Presente
Naples, 1977. Luciano Cilio's sole recorded work is pure magic - four "quadri" where strings, woodwinds, wordless voices and solitary guitar trace the edges of silence. Closer to Arvo Pärt and Morton Feldman than to any Italian prog, yet entirely its own universe. Music that breathes, suspends time, breaks your heart without raising its voice. Decades ahead of its time. First ever remaster from the original tapes.
They Came Like Swallows - Seven Requiems for the Children of Gaza
On They Came Like Swallows – Seven Requiems for the Children of Gaza, Bonner Kramer and Thurston Moore channel decades of noise, songcraft and studio sorcery into seven slow‑burning laments, where volcanic drones, grief‑stricken melody and a haunted Joy Division cover fuse into a stark act of sonic mourning and resistance.
In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country
*2024 stock* In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country is an EP by Scottish electronic music duo Boards of Canada. It was released by Warp and music70 on 27 November 2000, in the period between the duo's albums Music Has the Right to Children and Geogaddi. The four-track collection centers around the theme of the Branch Davidian religious sect and their Waco retreat. The title of the EP refers to a vocoder-processed and slowed voice sample used on the third track, which repeats "come out and live …
TAQATO3
Violinist Mike Khoury came together with Sharif Sehnaoui (guitar, percussion, bouzouki) and Raed Yassin (bass) to create some very natural and organic improvised music during the Irtijal Festival in 2018. Khoury said, “the three of us had an instant connection with a common understood language that predated all of us.” The music was not a part of a festival performance but a sparate effort by the three musicians. Khoury is best known for his work as a soloist, in duet with percussionist Ben Hall…
