This ‘u…

Alter Schwede
My Disco’s industrial goth gristle and bones congeal in petrified form on a return to Downwards, benefiting from visceral mixing by legendary Einstürzende Neubauten engineer, Boris Wilsdorf.

Back in the Downwards clammy clutch, Melbourne’s tightest trio compile material recor…

Sister, Brother, Lover....
*2022 Stock.* Originally issued by Regal Zonophone in 1971, this highly sought after release has been reissued on LP officially. The band's sound has been likened to that of the twin lead guitar style of Help Yourself/early Wishbone Ash with refined vocals.

The recording took place at Regent Sounds Studio in London where The Rolling Stones, The Yardbirds and Pink Floyd also recorded, as well as at equally renown…
The Enlightening Beam Of Axonda
*2022 Stock.* Not to be confused with the famous R'n'B star of the same name, Bobby Brown became known to the public for his bizarre self built percussion set which he played with hands and feet creating a very unusual and peculiar rhythm carpet, not to mention his odd vocal style which added to his intriguing musical choice a touch of captivating madness. Although not electronic, his musical take will be particularly enjoyable for who listened to experimental musicians such as Silver Apples, Un…

Interiors Two (LP + CD)
**300 copies**   New impressionistic, metaphysical investigations from Andrew Hargreaves’ Tape Loop Orchestra.  Taking his cues from found photos and a hopeless romantic sensibility, Tape Loop Orchestra’s entropic drift carries him thru rooms 7-13 of his ‘Interiors’ trilogy, taking all the time he needs to ponder the questions: “Are there invisible entities left adrift when a room is unoccupied, sounds forever reverberating beyond the life of the body? Is there a way for us to access this librar…
In The Mood (2LP)
** Edition of 200 copies** Second album from the italian artist Massimo Amato, here with a great ensemble of musicians exploring new forms of ambient music infected by etnic moods and his usual psychedelic approach. A smokey, nocturnal ambience of warm Spooner Oldham, Muscle Shoals keys and electronic fizz. Cymbals doubling for midnight waves crashing. A lazy calm of reverbed guitar, that wouldn`t be out of place on a Cocteau Twins record. The use of melodica nods towards the Dub meditations of …
