Avian Hydraulics
On Avian Hydraulics, Merzbow compresses four decades of noise praxis into a rarefied 10". A liquid-filled, rainbow-variant disc mirrors the music’s churning pressure: Masami Akita’s latest Munemihouse recording converts imagined bird-machines and fluid mechanics into a gleaming, corrosive miniature of his vast oeuvre.
Bonnie Dobson
Bonnie Dobson’s self-titled 1969 album is a striking blend of folk-pop and psychedelic nuances, marking a move beyond the traditional acoustic style that made her famous in the early 1960s. The album’s mood is often reflective and melancholic, balancing pastoral beauty with darker themes of change, loss, and uncertainty. One of the hidden gems of the album is track B4 “Pendant Que” by the celebrated Quebec songwriter Gilles Vigneault, which stands out since it is sung in French and reflects Dobs…
Black Marigolds
Michael Garrick's Black Marigolds is widely regarded as one of the landmark recordings of 1960s British jazz. The album is performed by some of the finest jazz musicians in Britain during the 1960s, including Ian Carr, Joe Harriott, Don Rendell, and Tony Coe. Michael Garrick alternates between piano, harpsichord, and celeste, creating an unusually rich palette of sounds. Indeed, the album is characterized not only by post-bop improvisation, chamber-jazz textures and poetic storytelling, but also…

Tarkovsky
This boxset contains the original soundtracks to the five core works of Andrei Tarkovsky, the master of Soviet cinema: "Ivan's Childhood", "Andrei Roublev", "Solaris", "Mirror", and "Stalker". The works by Eduard Artemyev and Vyacheslav Ovchinnikov may sound imperfect to the modern ear, but have been sympathetically remastered and presented as close as possible to how striking they would have sounded to audiences at the original film presentations.

SOS "In A Sentimental Mood"
Gatefold LP edition + OBI. There are few figures in improvised music quite like Akira Sakata. A marine biologist by training, he surfaced in the early 1970s inside the Yamashita Yosuke Trio, one of the most ferocious units Japanese jazz has ever produced, and for half a century since he has gone entirely his own way: bandleader, relentless collaborator, singer of strange incantations, a man who can make an alto saxophone sound like grief and slapstick in the same breath. Born in 1945 near Hiros…
Nine Studies of Ephemeral Resonance Volume 1 - 9
Urashima gathers Merzbow's complete nine-volume cycle in a single box, in an edition of 199: 26 tracks filtering noise through the Japan of haiku and ukiyo-e. Nine vinyl-replica CDs and two Leporello inserts on fine Japanese paper. Noise as contemplation, from one of the great figures of noise
Spiritually Unemployed
Ak’chamel, The Givers of Illness plunged into truly deranged extremes to summon the decayed, otherworldly essence captured on Spiritually Unemployed, embracing unhinged and esoteric methods during the tracking process. Recorded in a makeshift adobe studio amid liminal border-zone ruins. Nocturnal treks along forgotten stretches near the U.S.-Mexico line, through derelict border outposts and sun-bleached vehicle husks, yielded unique recording opportunities: Ak’chamel dragged tape decks like sacr…
Maris Stella
On Maris Stella, Tristan da Cunha turns isolationism into liturgy, reimagining the Marian figure of Our Lady, Star of the Sea as a beacon inside abandonment. A single, slow‑burning minimalist opus folds post‑drone, neoclassical gravity and choral haze into a seaborne ritual where guitar, viola, bass and drums behave like a reconfigured orchestra.
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.
Draconic Synthesis
On Draconic Synthesis, Old Tower fuses past, present and speculative futures of its own sound into a single, coiled entity. Forest drones, star‑castles and serpentine motifs blur into seductively destructive dark music, lifting the first veil on the “horned serpent” whose scaly, symbol‑inked body is both dungeon and firmament.
The Old King of Witches
On The Old King of Witches, Old Tower pares dark ambient down to its bones and dresses it in ‘90s deep electronics. Following a “stranger” lured through moss‑choked forests and caverns by reclusive witches, the album becomes a fiction of time stasis and regression, where man slides toward beast and the mysterious old world quietly devours the new.
The World Is Empty, the Heart Is Full
On The World Is Empty, the Heart Is Full, Raspberry Bulbs strip away excess and come back sharper, crueler and strangely more tuneful. Eleven compact songs fuse metallic edge, noise‑rock abrasion and post‑punk unease, with venomous vocals lashing out at a self‑satisfied “underground” that mistake style exercises for substance.
With Open Arms
On With Open Arms, Cult of Youth finally emerges from a seven‑year chrysalis with a sprawling “pagan post‑punk” epic. Born from off‑grid barn sessions, weaponized analog gear and years of cut‑and‑spliced reconstruction, the 62‑minute double album plays like a feverish exorcism turned into a hard‑won, defiant rebirth.
Chaos Is a Law
On Chaos Is A Law, Bob Bellerue treats feedback and rupture as a kind of secular mysticism. Macrotonal drones, rasping noise and inharmonic vortices surge, implode and re-form, turning piano wires, metal and amplifiers into a single, volatile organism where chaos becomes both method and mantra.
Entstaubung
*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition* A sonic presentation of a site-specific installation in Marl, created at the invitation of the Skulpturenmuseum Marl. Nathalie Brum recorded a local production site for industrial filters that are exported worldwide. By filtering the sound itself and capturing the essence of the atmosphere, Brum creates an ambient, subversive soundscape.
One side contains the soundscape alone, while the other contains the soundscape accompanied by stories told by locals a…
