Ensamseglaren
Huge Tip! Small repress. "I stood on top of the mountain and looked out over the landscape. It was so beautiful that my chest hurt. The light vibrated, time stood still, and the contours dissolved for a moment. Everything had changed; I felt it then. I took their little hands so as not to lose contact with the ground. Then we ran down the mountain, scraping our knees. Still, we didn't make it. You had already put away all the nautical charts, loosened the moorings and steered out among the skerr…
Teodros Makonnen With His Organ
Some recordings can foreshadow the future in ways that are hard to grasp in the moment, and Teodros Makonnen With His Organ (Teodros Makonnen ከኦርጋኑ ጋር) is one of them. Known as Teddy Mak, Teodros Makonnen helped define the digital sound of Ethiopian music that emerged from the 1980s onward, not only as a keyboard player but also as a producer, songwriter, performer, and sound designer. Although electronic instruments and digital production are now taken for granted in Ethiopian music, the early …

Enter Now The World
Last year, the long-awaited self-titled debut finally appeared on vinyl. Now the series continues with Enter Now The World, the second album by Jouni Havukainen's project. Originally released by Cold Meat Industry in 1992, it remains, for many listeners, the project's masterpiece.
The elements that defined In Slaughter Natives were already present on the debut. On Enter Now The World, everything became larger, heavier and more detailed. Thunderous percussion, heavy electronics, brass and string …
The Third World-Underground
CD edition. A title like a manifesto, and music with the conviction to carry it. For a few nights at the close of 1972, the Jazzhus Montmartre in Copenhagen held a trio that would barely survive the season. Abdullah Ibrahim - then still recording as Dollar Brand - sat at the piano; Don Cherry stood with his trumpet; Carlos Ward raised his alto. From the performance of November 14 came The Third World-Underground, a record that surfaced only in Japan, on Trio Records' Nadja imprint in 1974, and t…

Black Light District: A Thousand Lights In A Darkened Room
*2026 stock* ...At Last, it's here! During the transitional period in which Coil’s primary leadership (Peter “Sleazy” Christopherson and John Balance) reorganized their creative direction by taking on new membership in the group through their inclusion of Drew McDowall, Coil took a drastic turn towards the metaphysical unknown. Employing the subtle handiwork of Coil’s “real life” members, as well as the cleverly guised aliases and spiritual collaborators, the band chose to filter their identity…
Open Sky Unit
Open Sky Unit capture a warm‑blooded corner of 1970s Belgian jazz where a family of musicians stretches soul songs into jazz‑funk sermons, turning a small Liège club into a glowing, rough‑edged sanctuary.
Headache Contest
A few weeks ago I hit up this resale shop I haven't been to before. Serious junk store.. stuff piled up everywhere, I had to lay on a pile of Christmas wreaths just to dig through some of the records. Anyway... I get to the electronics room. Ironically enough it has no lights... I start looking with the flashlight from my phone. Mountains of wires and junk and speakers and modems. I see this metal box laying randomly under a bunch of wires, I pull it out thinking it's probably some old telephone…
Música Electroacústica Centroamericana - Vol. 1
200 copies limited edition, black vinyl edition Accessing the history of avant-garde and experimental music from Latin America has always been a complex affair - the true breadth of activity during the second half of the 20th Century sinfully under-documented, the result of political and economic circumstances that unfolded across decades. Over the last years, reissues have begun illuminating the remarkable creative triumphs that transpired in Peru, Chile, Argentina, Cuba, Brazil, Venezuela, and…
Cooked
On Cooked, Oren Ambarchi folds his all‑star studio jam aesthetic into something gloriously unhinged. Two side‑long epics twist piano ripples, synthetic “voices,” mutant trumpet tones, electric Miles haze and digital pyrotechnics into a foot‑tapping, brain‑scrambling, joyously cuckoo ride that still feels meticulously shaped.
The Feed-Back
Still sealed copies of the long sold out 2014 on Schema LP+CD re-issue of the ultra-rare 1970 psychedelic experimental album by no less that the Gruppo d'Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza in disguise.
The Face of Percussion
