Songlines
*300 copies limited edition* When the ghost in the machine meets the breath in the reed, expect sparks. Electronic sound artist Robin Rimbaud – Scanner joins forces with acclaimed British bass clarinetist Gareth Davis to create an album where circuitry hums, wood vibrates, and the air between notes crackles with possibility. This is no polite meeting of minds — it’s an elegant collision. Scanner’s intricate electronic textures weave around Davis’s deep, resonant tones, blurring the boundary betw…
It Deel IV
*300 copies limited edition* Poetry and music in an annually changing Frisian-international ensemble — that’s It Deel, a residency project by the Kleefstra brothers. After three previous sessions and releases with Jacaszek, Eivind Lønning & Espen Reinertsen, and Karen Willems, this beautiful project finds its conclusion with a fourth collaboration. In the summer of 2024, the Kleefstras invited cellist Joana Guerra and violinist Maria do Mar de Brito Lopes for a week-long creative residency at a …
Hedoro
** Limited edition of 300 copies. Includes an insert, download code and a UE sticker. ** Ōgon Batto is an exercise in patience; indeed, a model of restraint in these trying times. Although a fixture of the Belgian underground for over a decade (as part of the Hare Akedod label and band, the latter with DSR Lines’ David Edren), Bent Von Bent has released just two albums thus far. A scroll through ‘Browse’ reveals a series of miniature compositions — bite-size psychedelic treats, a sequence of im…
'Assorted Steamed Sex Jellies In Space Moussaka'
*2025 stock* In their on-again-off-again career spanning 30+ years, Le Scrambled Debutante have produced some of the most, err... "difficult listening experiences" as well as some of the most ground-breaking and unique amalgams in music at large! Taking the notions that John Cage laid forth many moons ago and running amuck with them, the music of Le Scrambled Debutante is often rather humorous, yet conveys seriousness and sincerity in experimental music. 'ASSJISM' is no exception. Being provided…
Fumarola
For the third time, they had been sent to this forsaken land. It was neither east nor west, neither north nor south. They said it had once been a kingdom, somewhere in the heart of the old continent, something they had pieced together from the ruins scattered across jagged hills sprouting here and there from the ground. Everyone else went islands, dived to the seabed, drilled at the poles, and explored waste in the east, but these two were sent here again, as if someone were trying to get rid of…
Like A Strange Matador
*2025 stock* Like moonlight playing on an ocean tide, Burn Into Sleep’s first record shimmers in the darkness with a perilous beauty. The core duo of David McLean and poet Lauren Bolger having been working with each other in various contexts since 2014, sharing the stage in Bolger’s iconoclastic no-wave band Locean, in a sorely missed free jazz trio with percussionist Pascal Nichols, guesting with Polish avant-garde collective Shepherd of Cats and Dream Skills of NYC and were both handpicked to …
Wedding Songs
*2025 stock* Wedding Songs marks the return to the label of filmmaker and composer, Clint Trofa, with his most ambitious and masterfully executed suite of music to date. Recorded with Jim Wallis throughout 2022, the 10 compositions that make up the album have been created with the patience of an auteur director, each piece of mise-en-scene delicately placed, unfolding with the grace, subtlety and emotional resonance of a European art house film.
Indeed, much of the album's melodic content has a…
Fudo
Introducing "Fudo," the acclaimed album by the avant-garde duo Mapa, now available in a specially remastered vinyl edition. "Fudo" stands as a pivotal work in the landscape of experimental electronic music, blending elements of punk energy, jazz improvisation, and electro-acoustic soundscapes to create a deeply evocative sonic journey.
Originally released to instant underground acclaim, "Fudo" is the fruit of the creative partnership between Paul Wirkus and Marcin Dymiter. The album delivers a d…
Live / Live
Just a few weeks back in a packed-full railway arch deep in South London, Jemima played their debut show and the moment seemed too good not to capture. Their gently lapping, invertedly melancholic sound is instantly recognisable from the first touch of the strings, although now songs, sketches and fragments from the album are elongate to have further room to breathe. Like finding a place of quiet refuge amidst the increasing urban chaos, these two extended live sets lower the pace for an ephemer…
Running around the Crape Myrtles
Edition of 50 copies. Solo recording by Hideaki Shimada, he also records under the name of Agencement, on several instruments like violin, viola, cello, piano and electronics. In the past he collaborated with Sabu Toyozumi, John Russell, Adam Bohman, Merzbow and countless others. A dive into the netherworld of sapphire acoustic improvisations and fly-by-night electronics.
autoReverse
Edition of 70 copies. Another magical stream of consciousness by Ramuntcho Matta on guitar, synth, vocals etc. A spaced out travelogue to the inner circle of the deep diamond through gaps of gaseous walls and flickering transluscent doors with intuitive speech patterns played backwards. Matta’s playful wizardry has illuminated many minds like Brion Gysin, Don Cherry and Eli Medeiros
Zen Experience in Music
Edition of 70 copies. Atmospheric home recordings by conservatoire deviant Valentina Goncharova on electric violin. Tuned and detuned augurs, like bird flights somewhere between written music and improvisation absorbed by waves of meditation echoing Takehisa Kosugi and Tony Conrad reflections in the aether of the zen garden's mind mirror.
Tantric Song Lines: A Hybrid Sutra
Edition of 50 copies. A magical reading from Marilyn Stablein’s recent book Tantric Song Lines: A Hybrid Sutra (Shivastan Press, 2024) which is derived from an ongoing series of poetic spoken, chanted, written and visual narratives that document and celebrate a seven year sojourn in and around the Himalayas to honor cultural, historical, ritual, geographical, environmental and time and place based encounters with people, animals, habitats, myths and spirits who populate those off the grid ancien…
Acid & Ecstasy
Thighpaulsandra presents Acid & Ecstasy, his ninth solo album and first release since 2019's Practical Electronics. The British electronic musician, whose collaborative history includes Coil, Spiritualized, and Julian Cope, delivers seven compositions across a double album that operates beyond conventional genre boundaries.

A Fool's Guide to Reality
Edition of 400. Belgian percussionist and composer Karen Willems presents her debut solo statement with A Fool's Guide to Reality, a work that transforms everyday objects and chance encounters into transcendent musical exploration. Released on Fanny Chiarello & Valentina Magaletti's Permanent Draft label, this album represents Willems' most personal artistic statement - a fearless dive into uncharted sonic territories where convention dissolves into pure experimentation. A serial collaborator wh…
Les Cents Jours Clairs
Etant Donnes is a French duo named after Marcel Duchamp's last major work. The group consists of brothers Marc and Eric Hurtado, born in Morocco and working mainly as performance artists and musicians. Their sound can be described as a mix of field recordings, found sounds and sometimes whispered, sometimes violent vocals. They describe their sounds like this: "Through Marc and Eric, it is the volume of each word that becomes an object-sculpture, together with the power of their bodies expressin…
Superstitions
Often dark, sometimes repetitive or experimental, sometimes rhythmical and exotic, always based on emotion inducted by the Sound. One could define it as dark age music (as opposite to new age music), a sort of minimal come back to the roots and purity of acoustic sound without the cultural background linked to the 'academic' use of some instruments (for example African senzas are transformed and tuned to sound like Indonesian instruments, sitar or harmonium are used as rhythmical instruments, va…
Tides In The Mirror
"Their differences intensify the soundscape. Francesca Gemmo provides a sensitive, contemplative, but deceptive lyricism, with memories of the wistful antique modes of Satie or Debussy’s impressionist palette twisted into shadowy subterranean echoes and knotted note clusters. Magda Mayas imaginatively extends Henry Cowell’s innovations of touch and timbre, alternately coaxing and attacking, releasing previously concealed phantom textures, percussive episodes, near-electronic hues, and micro-alte…
Last Live 2001 - In Memoriam Derek Bailey And Tony Oxley (2CD)
Joseph Holbrooke was a legendary all-star ensemble from the mid Sixties dedicated to free improvisation. Comprising three of the most acclaimed virtuosos from the first generation of British improvisers—Bailey, Bryars, and Oxley—little has been released, but they briefly reformed in 1998 and the studio recordings from that period were made available in 2006 on Tzadik as The Moat Recordings. Last Live 2001 is exactly that—their last live concert ever! Recorded in Antwerp in January of 2001, the e…
Six Places
London-based musician Luke Cowan delivers his most expansive work yet with ‘Six Places’, a quietly dazzling suite that renders memory, geography and imagination as sound. Across six extended pieces recorded in Ely, Cambridge, York and London, Cowan bends the borders between composition and improvisation, everyday resonance and ensemble interplay, to arrive at a music that feels porous, fragile and strangely luminous. Cowan calls it “a collection of impressions of places. Some are real and some i…
