“Terror Iridescence” is the 4th full length release by the latter-day, New York City based reincarnation of the seminal Punk Jazz/No Wave/Brutal Prog unit The Flying Luttenbachers, and the 17th album since 1992. After all of this, longtime fans tend to expect notable creative twists to be pulled by the band with each release, and this one will not disappoint. This time around, our heroes have issued forth a boldly abstract haunted-house salvo of dizzying surrealism, loaded with exceptionally biz…
Voices and Piano, written for Nicolas Hodges, is an extensive cycle of pieces, each for a single recorded voice, mostly of a well-known celebrity, and piano. The cycle is still in progress and should eventually include about 80 pieces/voices (arround 4 hours of music). The work is always meant to occur as a selection from the whole. At present I like to write works where the whole should not be presented at once. The whole should remain the whole, and what we hear is just a part of it. I like to…
2025 Repress This is the original double CD, which has long been out of print, remastered, with additional tracks made with the sounds recorded during the project. The album finds Steven Stapleton and Colin Potter spending time on Norway's lofoten Islands inside the arctic circle with no instruments and minimal equipment and sending regular broadcasts to resonance fm via lofotradioen local radio. This double disc on Potter's ICR label contains 7 of these broadcasts. Windswept field recordings, f…
Bernhard Lang's Differenz/Wiederholung 2 is a multi-media piece for amplified ensemble, three voices and video installation. While the music is filled with rocking-and-rolling, anti-grooving sound slaps, "scored free jazz", and crippled repetitions, three vocalists present texts (including rap) from Gilles Deleuze, William Burroughs and Christian Loidl, commenting on usual repetitive human habits and its nonsense. If Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica (1969) is a milestone of avant-rock, …
*500 copies limited edition* Following the limited edition CD reissue of Broken Flag’s 'Never Say When' compilation earlier this year comes this new reissue of 1985’s 'Morality', also originally released as a cassette on the same label. Featuring too many tracks to go on one disc, however, 'Morality' is now presented as a 2CD set remastered by Puppy38. As with 'Never Say When', this compilation documents the nascent work of many artists still active today in one form or another besides a number …
Georges Aperghis is probably still not much associated, by the public that internationally attends performances of his works, with music for solo piano. Music-theatre – of an uncommonly original kind, with extended vocal techniques much to the fore – has usually been his stamping ground. The concerns that his operas and other music-theatre compositions have embraced – often focusing around a highly individual approach to words and to all aspects of language, developed with great musical sophisti…
Buh Records presents Anthology 2: Works for the Experimental Orchestra of Native Instruments, a double album that deepens the exploration of the work of Bolivian composer Cergio Prudencio (La Paz, 1955) and his inseparable bond with the Experimental Orchestra of Native Instruments (OEIN), the project he co-founded in 1980 and of which he is now emeritus director. Like Anthology 1, widely praised by the international music press, this second installment continues to reveal the conceptual, aesthet…
In a sonic dialogue that balances delicacy and depth, Clinton Green and Barnaby Oliver explore the shifting textures of acoustics and resonance. Employing bowed aluminum bowls, strings, and a grand piano, their work unfolds in patient layers that probe the very essence of sound and its environment, evoking an atmosphere of quiet tension and subtle transformation.
Originally released in 1972 on the Odeon label, Quarteto Em Cy stands as a high-water mark in the group’s prolific discography—and a hidden gem for collectors of Brazilian vinyl. Known for their intricate vocal harmonies and deep roots in the bossa nova movement, the quartet ventures into post-bossa territory here, where sophistication meets groove in all the right ways.Arrangements by Edu Lobo and Luiz Eça (of Tamba Trio) lend the album a richly layered sound—elegant, jazzy, and emotionally res…
Taping, expanding, and challenging the parameters of how we perceive rhythm and percussion, comes “Notte”, the debut solo LP by the Italian journeyman drummer and composer Piero Perelli. Ranging from the infectiously hypnotic to complex abstractions and sheets of ambience, every step of the way it's an engrossing listen that shouldn't be missed.
Necessary, first ever vinyl reissue of a truly seminal double LP set originally appeared on the Chatham Square imprint in 1975. Canadian artist and film maker Michael Snow was originally a jazz pianist, and he has continued to be involved in music throughout his long career. He arranged for Albert Ayler, Don Cherry, Sunny Murray, John Tchicai, Gary Peacock and his then neighbour Roswell Rudd to record the landmark improvised soundtrack to his film New York Eye And Ear Control (perhaps the first …

2025 Repress. The second beautiful album by the duo of Jessika Kenney -- a vocalist known for her haunting timbral sense, as well as her profound interpretation of Persian vocal traditions -- and Eyvind Kang -- a violist for whom the act of music and learning is a spiritual discipline. All tracks were composed by Kenney (voice, percussion, electronics) and Kang (viola, setar, electronics). "The Central Javanese Wangsalan is a kind of riddle (two lines, twelve syllables each, divided 4 and 8 ), s…
"The Begena is one of those rare musical instruments of the world that has survived for more than 5800 years. What is fascinating about it is not only its age but the fact that both its manufacture and the purpose for which it is being played have never changed during all these years. It is still made of wood and animal products, such as the intestine of the sheep for the strings, the leather that covers the sound box. It is used for praying, for praising God and for meditation, just as it was i…
Softcover, 244 pages, 21x21 cm What connects 1950s open-reel tape trading to Quebec's pioneering all-female punk band? How does Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac lead to Amon Düül and the Rote Armee Fraktion? Why should you know about Korla Pandit? And what exactly happened at Nijmegen's legendary Diogenes Club? The Third Annual - Korm Plastics' biggest and boldest yearbook yet - doesn't answer the questions you thought you had. It answers the ones you didn't know you were asking.
This third edition…
Wounds captures David Toop and Paul Burwell at their most relentlessly inventive, distilling the London Musicians Collective’s radical energy into tactile, improvised sound rituals. Edited from a single 1979 performance, it’s a landmark of British experimental music: two artists in conversation with objects, timbre, and the primal roots of musical creation.
300 copies only! De Sälla Jaktmarkerna brings together Sewer Election and Ån for a collaborative work recorded during 2024 in Kortedala, on the outskirts of Gothenburg. The album represents a meeting point between two distinct voices in the Gothenburg experimental scene. Dan Johansson (Sewer Election) has spent recent years exploring increasingly nuanced territories in synthesized sound. Here, he collaborates with Matz Engdahl (Ån), a late bloomer in the milieu around Longest Night whose acclai…
Legendary 1976 Private Press Rarity Documents Oklahoma's most uncompromising Proto-Punk visionaries, this trio produced art-damaged outsider rock influenced by Stooges, Beefheart, and Velvet Underground
Two Rooms Records is excited to announce its tenth and most significant release yet, "Live on WUOM 1979" by Griot Galaxy. Nearly lost to history, this double-length release captures an extended radio performance by the seminal Afro-futurist jazz group, aka “The Sci-Fi Band,” featuring stunning versions of their classic repertoire circa 1979, in a compact, quartet setting.
