Glass Torso
“Joe Fujinoki centered the compositions of his latest album Glass Torso around the idea of the fragility of the human body. Fujinoki described the narrative thread of the album as that of “holding the shape of a human body as if it might shatter like glass”. The precariousness of the body, the essence of the body as defined by Fujinoki as the torso, and the object relations between the boundaries of dialectical exercises pack themselves into his creative process. Fujinoki recorded Glass Torso ex…
Pareidolia
Named after the tendency to impose familiar likenesses, such as faces, on random - usually inanimate - objects, Pareidolia is Jake Muir's way of interpreting the consonances between so-called “ambient” music and extreme heavy metal. Extracting the headiest, most atmospheric sections from hundreds of death metal and black metal tracks, Muir plays the role of both DJ and electroacoustic composer, concocting a lysergic elixir of fractal distortions and prolonged, decelerated riffs that slowly evapo…
Africa / Brass
In 1961 John Coltrane joined the newly founded Impulse! label. The great saxophonist was coming off several impactful albums (Giant Steps) and a very notable — even commercial — success: that My Favorite Things which had made his soprano sax one of the “new sounds” that marked a turning year for jazz, the fateful 1959. Some people — despite obvious clues to the contrary — speculated a turn, if not toward commerciality, at least toward more palatable music: a Coltrane in some ways comparable to P…
Emanuelle E Gli Ultimi Cannibali
Back in stock with a brand new edition the score for Emanuelle e gli ultimi cannibali (Emanuelle and the last cannibals), a movie featuring our beautiful Laura in new dangerous adventures! The wonderful score by Maestro Fidenco is influenced by the changement of the musical influences: we see the Maestro more funky oriented. The score opens with a wonderful danceable "Make love on the wing" that could have be composed by Change or Chic. The Maestro doesn't delude us preparing a variation on the …
De Reditu Suo
In this sonic journey, the cello gets lost and finds itself again within the folds of electronics—like an ancient soul echoing through the chaos of the present. Inspired by the words of Rutilius Namatianus in De Reditu Suo, this work unfolds as a pilgrimage between past and present, between whispered voices and archaic melodies that dissolve and reassemble in the reverberation of primordial frequencies.
Distorted Gregorian chants, deep drones, and fragments of lost voices intertwine to form a so…
Gloomy Sunday: The Funeral I Plan for Myself
Telekinett is pleased to unveil a narrative that delves into themes of darkness and metaphysics, spotlighting John Duncan, a distinguished figure among contemporary Electroacoustic composers.
Old Dark Champagne
This EP, written and recorded over three years, captures the work of Haydn Douet Lukies, a percussionist whose practice centres on highly resonant objects and site-responsive sound. Based in Portugal, Douet Lukies has developed a distinctive approach to solo percussion, working with antique metal and glass alongside found architectural surfaces. His music draws on a wide range of influences, from minimalism and Arabic percussion to jungle and the polyrhythmic batida that first drew him to Lisbon…
Untitled
Ohmmmmm… Sedative new-age dream sequence from NYC cold-caller Arsenii for in-house mixtape series Tabi Tapes. Nag champa at the ready…
An unsolicited email dropped into the inbox not so long ago from US-based record dealer and cassette fanatic, explaining how a strong passion for collecting / documenting otherwise ‘lost’ music has led to uploading to YouTube, sharing and assembling mixes. It was accompanied by a 90 minute recording comprised of pieces culled from private new age cassettes foun…
Libelocus-(alpha), Libelocus-(beta), Libelocus-(gamma)
Big tip! Romanian composer, conductor, and musicologist Iancu Dumitrescu is often described as one of the leading figures of spectral music, yet he has produced a body of powerful works resonating with explosive sound and friction that places him very much in his own universe. Dumitrescu studied under his compatriot, the conductor Sergiu Celibidache, who rarely left behind concert recordings. From him Dumitrescu absorbed phenomenology and conducting techniques, incorporating them into his own co…
Phew
Why did so many of the world’s most forward-thinking musicians gravitate toward Conny Plank’s studio at that time? Released in 1981, Phew was recorded at the legendary Conny’s Studio—home to seminal works by Kraftwerk, Neu!, D.A.F., and Brian Eno—featuring Phew, formerly of Aunt Sally.
The album brings together Can members Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit, whose contributions, combined with Plank’s masterful engineering and Czukay’s innovative editing techniques, result in a strikingly original …
Quartet
"Composition and its performance can have an organic relationship, a balance between written and the improvised. Muriel Grossmann’s wide compositional and performing talents are clearly reflected in four-voice pieces such as Diversity and Quintessence, suite-like compositions such as Flügel and Echo, as well as brisk, energetic works like Andrew. The quartet composed of Radomir Milojkovic on guitar, David Marroquin on upright bass, and Marko Jelaca on drums, has become a sound lab — a group wher…
For The Space You Left
This solo prepared piano record grew out of periods of isolation and solitude, shaped by two very different emotional landscapes. The music began in 2017 during a residency at MacDowell, where I applied with the intention of experimenting with piano preparation and confronting a long standing fear: playing solo piano. I had always been uncomfortable exposing myself alone at the instrument, and creating a solo project felt like the most direct way to face that fear — and grow through it. At the t…

Pétale Défoule
Pétale Défoule opens with a bewildering piece of ’Intro'. Like the conductor of an orchestra, that she would have matrixed herself, the solo musician tunes all her sounds, raises her trombone, switches on all her instruments and friendly machines, calling all the creatures from the enchanted woods and wastelands to join in. Larsen touches everything so brilliantly, it’s stunning. Over the 8 tracks, we are transported by the heavy breaked bass of «Shygirl», the stepper accents of «Grosses bastos»…
Will Shatter Rides Again (Tape)
*100 copies limited edition. Comes housed in a mini rave case with a handmade 16 page book and sticker* "One does not necessarily think of tradition when contemplating Birth (Defects)’ impossibly brutal live recording Will Shatter Rides Again, but the gnarly live tape has a long and proud history in punk, metal, noise, and underground circles in general. Big Black did one, Pell Mell did one, Ramleh did a few, Throbbing Gristle did a suitcase full. In the ‘80s and ‘90s, the decades that forged o…
Unfamiliar Music (Paris)
Sparkling or Silent finds crys cole and Oren Ambarchi pausing their restless, always‑on‑the-move discographies at a curious angle, as if turning the light slightly to see what has been glinting at the edges all along. Both artists have long carried an electroacoustic sensibility in their work - in cole’s hyper‑attentive treatment of small sounds and negative space, in Ambarchi’s use of guitar and electronics as malleable matter rather than fixed instruments - but here that sensibility becomes th…
Supersédure 2
Second Edition of Supersédure 2. Eric La Casa and Seijiro Murayama use percussion and field recording like scalpels on everyday life, shaving tiny ruptures into routine until small, repeated gestures cross an invisible line and start to sound like events.
The Alternative Counter Organization
Taco weaponise the very idea of “tako” - octopus, kite, bunion, drunk, bald head - into a mutating post‑punk organism, a rotating guerrilla cell whose songs behave like incidents rather than compositions.
Revolutionary Pekinese Opera
On Revolutionary Pekinese Opera, Ground Zero - under the ferociously precise direction of Otomo Yoshihide - detonates a cut‑and‑splice orchestra where free improv, noise, opera and plunderphonics collide with undimmed urgency.
Sunn O)))
Oxblood vinyls. Nearly three decades into an activity that has consistently redefined the outer territories of heavy music, Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson return with their tenth album - their first for Sub Pop, and the first to bear their own name.
Recorded in January 2025 at Bear Creek Studios in Woodinville, Washington, co-produced and mixed alongside Brad Wood, sunn O))) finds the duo stripping the project back to its irreducible core. For the first time, all instrumentation was performe…
