Nachtfahrt
*150 copies limited edition* Here CON presents an uneasy experimental piece exploring obscure liquid sonic realms and their contents. Schnitzler continues to take the familiar and transform it into something unrecognizably warped. Nachtfahrt is a deeply hypnotic album. CON guides this grim tale through numerous moods, CONveying a transition from dreamy weightlessness to noir tension.
Talisman
*35 copies limited edition* Written during a time of fracture and crisis, this album is about looking for a wonder in the cracks. It’s about embracing the flawed and the frail, positing that if re-enchantment is possible, it will sprout from the small things. Built from gentle field recordings and analogue synthesizers, it offers music as a talisman; a warm, homespun garment for uncertain days.
Ethiopian Musics 1971
Taking a slight deviation from the widely celebrated path through experimental sounds that has largely defined their efforts over the years, the venerable Sub Rosa returns with rare and essential dive into the world of ethnomusicology with ‘Ethiopian Musics 1971’, their third release dedicated to the recordings of Ragnar Johnson and the second devoted to the groundbreaking recordings he made in Ethiopia with Ralph Harrisson during the summer of 1971. Belonging to a larger body of recordings dedi…
Descension "Out of Our Constrictions"
*2025 Repress!! 150 copies limited edition* Rich in musical associations yet utterly singular in its voice, joyous with an inner tranquility, the music of Natural Information Society is unlike any other being made today. Their sixth album in eleven years for eremite records, descension (Out of Our Constrictions) is the first to be recorded live, featuring a set from London’s Cafe OTO with veteran English free-improv great Evan Parker, & the first to feature just one extended composition. The 75-…
Live at the Sky Church - September 3rd, 2004
The first new Sun City Girls release since Funeral Mariachi (2010), Live at the Sky Church is a performance that melds their signature alien-jazz improv, Asian-tinged psychedelia, and Middle Eastern meditations together with their ranting psychodrama. An audio and visual recording from Seattle in 2004 shows a group that is both aware and committed to its history, while still demonstrating the power of the experimental to drive an enormous cudgel through the heart of those who believe to have all…
Greek Variations & Other Aegean Exercises
British Jazz Explosion Series! Recorded in '69, Greek Variations & Other Aegean Exercises is irresistible on two counts. First, for its daringly conceived and brilliantly performed music, inspired by Greek folk songs and instrumental textures and deep enough to reveal all its treasures only after many repeated listenings. Second, for being recorded at the moment when the Don Rendell/Ian Carr Quintet, a major force in British straight-ahead jazz since '62, had broken up and Carr's equally influen…
Live in Europe 1968 & 1972
On Live in Europe 1968 & 1972, Marion Brown leads a borderless quartet through two rare European concerts, pairing his singing alto with Gunter Hampel's vibes, Barre Phillips' bass and Steve McCall's drums in a sound that hovers between lyrical free jazz and chamber‑like intimacy.
The Yellow Box
As trans-Atlantic alchemists pulling from a shared dialectic that somehow encompassed both postmodern deconstructionist tendencies and a delightfully subversive sense of poptimism, it’s easy to see how David Cunningham and Peter Gordon immediately hit it off upon initially meeting each other back in the late-1970s at the height of their youthful transgressions. Having initially worked together on the second Flying Lizards’ LP fourth wall, with its ingenious fusion of dismantled rhythms and rearr…
Pleasure Ground
Twenty years on, Prurient's Pleasure Ground returns in the edition it always wanted. This is the hinge record in Dominick Fernow's catalogue, the one that opened the electronic chapter of the project: the scorched power-electronics of the early years meeting synth tones, slow doom weight and the meditative cold of Nordic black metal. Recorded in a single day, 14 February 2006, it first surfaced as a self-released double cassette sold at Carlos Giffoni's No Fun Fest in New York, then arrived in s…
Throbbing Gristle’s Greatest Hits
2025 stock **Transparent orange vinyl + 8 page 12” booklet + download with 9 bonus tracks.** First released by Rough Trade in 1980 with the apt subtitle Entertainment Through Pain, it's an unbeatable summary of crucial material from Gen, Chris, Cosey and Sleazy's first three albums (Second Annual Report, DoA: The Third and Final Report and 20 Jazz Funk Greats), taking in the robo-fetish disco of 'Hot On The Heels of Love', the piss-streaked paranoia of 'Subhuman', the deadpan synth-pop pretensio…
Apologizing To Ghosts
*150 copies limited edition* Apologizing To Ghosts is a hauntological meditation on the haunted house: its lingering detritus of memories, its cobwebs of remorse, its loops replaying in darkened corners, ghosts quietly apologizing to the ghosts of ghosts. For Varian, ghosts aren't made of ectoplasm so much as of injustice, longing and regret, the unfinished business that keeps them, and us, tethered to some moment we wish we could undo.
As on many previous 400 Lonely Things albums, every sound h…
Fukushima
Sinsuke Fujieda Group recorded Fukushima at Groove Studio Matsudo in May 2023. When Superfly Records put it out on vinyl in the spring of 2025 the thousand copies vanished within days, two further pressings followed, and copies on the second-hand market are now asking three figures. This CD is the record the LP could not hold: the five compositions restored to their full unedited length, three flute pieces that had only ever appeared digitally, and Jiva, a previously unheard piece for bamboo cla…
The Rest Is My Ghost
Nostalgia is not an ideology, though in this moment, we could be mistaken for thinking it might be just that. Over the past years, the idea of nostalgia has been filtered through various political and technological lenses and has become a tool used for forgetting, rather than remembering. Instead of embracing histories’ complexities and inconsistencies, this version of nostalgia seeks only singular recollection. This contemporary phenomenon of nostalgia has become a methodology at best, and a we…
8
Loveland Music presents 8, a studio recording featuring an all-star ensemble of Jakob Bro, Brian Blade, Craig Taborn, Chris Cheek, Jesper Zeuthen, Anders Christensen, Larry Grenadier & Marcus Gilmore, playing compositions by Paul Motian and Jakob Bro. The album was recorded in a single session at New York's Power Station with engineer James Farber, following a week-long residency at the Village Vanguard.
"Danish guitarist and composer Jakob Bro is celebrated for his pure reflective expression a…
Keeping It In Context
On Keeping It In Context, Daniel Carter, Sabir Mateen, William Parker and Lou Grassi turn a 1996 Context Studios session into a blazing, deep‑listening workshop, with twin reeds, singing bass and restless drums stretching free jazz language without losing its earthy pulse.
Prati Bagnati del Monte Analogo
One of the most sought-after jewels from Italy's legendary Cramps Records finally gets the reissue treatment it deserves! Raul Lovisoni and Francesco Messina's stunning 1979 masterpiece Prati Bagnati Del Monte Analogo – produced by the one and only electronic pioneer Franco Battiato – returns in a faithful reproduction that honors the original sleeve design.
This is Italian Minimalism at its most delicate and transcendent. Not the rigid academic exercises you might expect, but something far more…
Palm Sweat: Marc Ducret Plays the Music of Tim Berne
Guitarist Marc Ducret reworks Tim Berne's compositions, recorded mostly at home in 2021 with horns, flute, cello and a wide range of guitars, basses, daxophone and percussion, favouring colour and texture over soloing.
Libelocus-(alpha), Libelocus-(beta), Libelocus-(gamma)
Romanian composer, conductor, and musicologist Iancu Dumitrescu is often described as one of the leading figures of spectral music, yet he has produced a body of powerful works resonating with explosive sound and friction that places him very much in his own universe. Dumitrescu studied under his compatriot, the conductor Sergiu Celibidache, who rarely left behind concert recordings. From him Dumitrescu absorbed phenomenology and conducting techniques, incorporating them into his own composition…
L'Uccello del Paradiso
Big Tip! These three previously unreleased tracks reflect the cultural influences of a very young Riccardo Sinigaglia. In particular, the Anti-psychiatry movement founded by Ronald David Laing, author of the influential books The Politics of Experience and The Bird of Paradise. As well as Jung's theory of archetypes, a subject explored in depth in the writings of Elémire Zolla. The compositional processes of concrete music are fundamental, while the extensive use of fragments from other cultures…
In the Box
Confusional Quartet was one of the most original and unique bands to ever come out of Italy, and one of the few bands able to switch from the prog rock era to dislocated art forms, painting their music with traces of early electronica and a post-punk twist (read: no wave). A bridge linked the band from Bologna (rock) to the musical past and present of the nation, with senses of urgency and creativity on top and a revolutionary aesthetic revealed between the lines. No lyrics -- the music was trul…
