Live At Henie Onstad Art Centre 1971
*2026 repress* Recorded on February 28, 1971, at the Henie Onstad Art Centre in Høvikodden, Norway, this remarkable document captures Soft Machine at the height of their creative powers—performing two continuous sets that blur the boundaries between composition and improvisation.
On this evening, the British avant-garde ensemble unleashed an unbroken flow of sound—dynamic, exploratory, and charged with the band’s signature blend of jazz, rock, and experimental electronics. All instruments—exce…
Trees, Chants And Hollers
This enchanting album weaves together the intricate fingerstyle guitar mastery of Paul LaBrecque with the soulful, ethereal vocals of Valerie Webb, creating a sonic tapestry rooted in folk, acoustic, and world music traditions. Recorded in the lush Vermont woods, the title track "Trees" evokes the whispering rustle of leaves and ancient forest spirits through LaBrecque's cascading arpeggios and Webb's haunting chants.
Tracks like "Hollers" channel raw Appalachian calls into rhythmic, percussive …
Race At Neon Club
Featuring 8 tracks of dazzling electronic soundscapes, 'Race at Neon Club' sees Brice Dreessen fulfill the promise of his early work to deliver a beautiful, if at times unsettling, album that ranges from blissful interstellar ambience through to disorientating experimental noise and industrial rhythms.
Pollution
Following on from 2014’s ‘Terrestre’ 12”, Lawrence Le Doux returns to Belgium’s Vlek label with the ‘Pollution’ EP, 4 tracks of playful, hauntologically minded Electronica and Techno. Kicking off with the mesmerising loops of ‘Floor’, Le Doux works his machines to create an analogue gyre that ensnares the unguarded listener and neatly segues into ‘Liquide’ where a sublime mist of gentle hiss settles over his unworldly, almost naive, sounding synths and metronomic beat. On the B-side the EP’s tit…
Swirl
On Swirl, Here capture the moment Czech guitar music fell headlong for shoegaze: a 1993 fever‑dream of FX‑smeared riffs and bruised melodicism, now finally given the widescreen vinyl and deep‑dive context it always implied.
Die Dritte Ebene
On Die Dritte Ebene, Emilio Gordoa and Sven‑Åke Johansson let vibraphone, drums and accordion run in seemingly parallel lines until a mysterious “third layer” appears - a ghost‑music of overtones, pulse and texture that neither player could summon alone.
Notes from the Air
On Notes from the Air, Ciro Vitiello turns the seagull into a trembling patron saint of dizziness and desire, drifting between orchestral swells, shoegaze haze and post‑rock afterimages in songs that hover on the edge of meaning and never quite touch down.
Live at Issue Project Room
On Live at ISSUE Project Room, Loren Connors and Alessandra Novaga turn the guitar into a nearly weightless medium, tracing an improvised, slow‑burn dialogue of tremors, silences and ghost‑melodies that feels less like a concert than a séance for two.
Body Sound
Whitney Johnson, Lia Kohl, and Macie Stewart are a trio who utilize string instruments, voices, and manual tape effect processing to craft compositions from alternately tranquil and disquieting improvised music. The three musicians are individually rooted in deep sound exploration, multi-disciplinary composition, and all manner of cross-genre collaboration. The musical ground covered by their solo practices is correspondingly expansive, and their individual recording and performance credits read…
Dras
Tip! Alex Zhang Hungtai stands in stillness on 'Dras', but it's the kind of stillness that contains entire ranges of possibility. Recorded in 2019 inside Montreal's Saint Joseph Oratory (right before a piano demolition, no less), these nine pieces sat dormant on his hard drive through pandemic years until something finally clicked. What emerges now feels like watching someone trace the contours of their own interior landscape, each melodic line a careful negotiation with the unconscious. This is…
Microcosm
Big tip! *2026 stock* Recording Kang Taehwan’s music, his underground practice room has been the place where he has spent the most time with his saxophone and remains his most familiar space. The concrete and brick finishes, high ceiling, and asymmetrical structure in all directions create a unique reverberation. Because the shape of the room is irregular, the acoustic balance shifts constantly from side to side and front to back depending on the pitch.
Although Kang’s performance is on a single…
Taivaskanava
Taivaskanava by Juho Toivonen. Originally released as a cassette on Grapefruit Records, now getting repressed on cd. Quiet, drifting pieces for late hours, small sounds and open space, carrying the same fragile mood as the original tape. original artwork by Arsi Keva. features spoken words by joshua burkett and plunderphonics rip-off from this kind of punishment. good luck spotting it.
“Solo work by this Finnish musician, who also runs the Akti label. Toivonen’s music is simultaneously rural and…
Chansons de Trottoir / Stoepliedjes
*100 copies limited edition* This is a special work by acclaimed composer and musician Adriaan de Roover, who has released records on Dauw, Viernulvier, Pias, and Consouling Sounds. Chansons de trottoir / Stoepliedjes documents his relationship to sampling in the form of a radio play. Originally created as a radio piece for Resonance FM in Manchester, the album is a sonic portrait of a walk through Brussels. It is constructed from two field recordings: one made during a walk from Metro Midi towa…
Low Tide, Hi Grypus!
*100 copies limited edition* Low Tide, Hi Grypus! is the new live-iteration of JC Leisure as JC Leisure Group. Documenting an encounter and a communication between human improvisers and atlantic grey seals. The record presents responsive improvisation as a form of cross-species collaboration. The project began on Porthdinllaen, Wales, where Leisure recorded seal vocalisations from a local colony at low tide. Back in their Liverpool studio, Leisure developed a performance system that translates h…
Oranj
Oranj is a 14 track LP, recorded in 2025 between Chicago’s Rax Trax studios and Dock Street Studios in London, Andy Baxter taking on drums, keys, bass guitar with long time collaborator Francesca Uberti joining on Rhodes piano for four tracks. Featuring mix engineering from Hackney Recording Studio’s Sean Woodlock (4 songs) and by Lilac Lab’s Shawn Clendening in Chicago (10 songs). Partly an ode to the inventors of analog recording equipment and electric instruments in the middle of the 20th Cen…
Hìeratico
Italian drummer, composer and sound artist Nicolas Remondino announces the release of his new album Hìeratico, a work that delves into the borderlands between ritual, abstraction and contemporary experimental music. The record presents a radical reimagining of the drum set and percussion as an autonomous sound-world, where pulse, noise and silence continuously collide and reconfigure. On Hìeratico, Remondino treats rhythm as a living architecture rather than a mere time-keeping device, building …
Five Stagings
Recorded in high summers and brutal winters in 2022 and 2023, Nightingale Floor’s debut album Five Stagings takes the listener through a quintet of spontaneously conjured and patiently crafted pieces for a quartet of musicians scattered across North-West England. Manchester-based poet Lauren McLean provides voice and words, joined by cellist Josh Horsley of Preston duo Powders, Benjamin D. Duvall of Liverpool four-piece Ex-Easter Island Head on sound collages, strings and trombone, with Tombed V…
Fail better
*70 copies limited edition* Eventless Plot and Bruno Duplant join forces on Fail better, a cassette release that treats failure not as an endpoint, but as a method of composition and a way of listening. Across two long-form pieces, the group carves out a delicate space between electroacoustic improvisation, minimalism and ambient abstraction, letting sounds appear, waver and erode rather than declaring them with force.
Recorded by the Thessaloniki-based trio of Vasilis Liolios, Aris Giatas and Y…
Improvised Music
Mail collaboration for electronics, violin, and audio letters.
Drugs Are Nice
Originally self-released during 1990, a tapestry of noise, girls talking into tape recorders, pre- and post-song material.
