A Fleeting Glance
2026 stock One of the most astonishing British private pressing rarities. The music runs the gamut from heavy space-rock jamming (including a snatch of ‘Interstellar Overdrive’) to folk/rock (an acoustic cover of ‘Light My Fire’ and a stunning version of ‘Watch The Stars’), avant-garde choirs krautrock-styled interludes and even trad jazz. The result is among the trippiest albums I have ever heard. Comparable only to Jumble Lane in terms of eccentricity
Shades Of Burgundy (LP)

Micromégas VI (LP)

Further Than Thought
180g black vinyl with poly-lined black paper sleeve and double-sided insert. There's a lineage of American fingerstyle guitar that runs from the Piedmont porches of Elizabeth Cotten through Robbie Basho's visionary expansions into spiritual territory - and then, somehow, into the waters. With his second full-length album, Brooklyn-based guitarist Ben Van Bonn acknowledges these predecessors while floating wordlessly into terrain they never mapped.
Further Than Thought is aquatic music in the tru…

Music for Dimensions
Elvio Seta is a composer and sound artist whose work encompasses electronic and instrumental composition, live performances, and the creation of original sound works and diffusion structures. Most of his works are conceived by exploiting the qualities of multichannel sound projection to explore the deeper aspects of acoustic perception.

The CDr consists of 6 tracks that I created on analog synthesizers. It was meant to be a relase for the happy few, and mostly given away to friends."
Malheur
Comes in 4-panel cover in plastic wallet. Edition of 30 copies. "Because it's so much fun to make: another beat-oriented snack, after Hinkelstap, Tuimelval, Haast, and Kadans. As with the others, I'm not sure if it's any good, but let's hope y'all enjoy it."
Gruwel
Business card CDr. "It was about time that I released a business card CDr again. I also had this drawing which I thought would work great as a cover image. The only thing I had to do is make the music for it. So here it is. It turned out a bit dramatic, stylistically, with desolate fog horn like swells and faint electronic rumblings. It's all quite sombre, but with all the horrible conflicts in the world today, what else could I do?"
