cool jojo
2026 Repress. Recorded over three December days in 1979 at Epicurus Studio in Tokyo and issued the following year, Cool Jojo documents a side of Masayuki "Jojo" Takayanagi that sits at considerable remove from the noise-as-method work he was simultaneously pursuing with the New Direction Unit. The guitarist's Second Concept was his vehicle for an explicit return to the Tristano school — the lineage he had absorbed as a young player in postwar Tokyo and never fully set aside — and the programme m…
Legends In Their Own Lunchtime : An Exploration Of The Canterbury Scene (Book, Hardcover)
Hardcover, 648 pages, Hardcover! This book looks back on the golden years of the music scene that emerged out of Canterbury, Kent, in the late 1960s, spearheaded by Soft Machine and Caravan and their various offshoots, including Gong, Kevin Ayers and the Whole World, Robert Wyatt's Matching Mole, Hatfield and the North and National Health, and related bands like Egg and Gilgamesh.
Musically at the meeting point between pop, progressive rock, electric jazz and modern classical, it brought togethe…
Live at Pe:rsona
From the edges of a hallucinatory torpor, Rue des Garderies continue their explorations in psychedelia — Femacosmé presents here a new piece recorded live at the Pe:rsona festival, at Domaine des Éveils in the summer of 2025. An adventure guided by blur, the intangible, the impermanent, where layers, voices, sounds, and organic and synthetic echoes resonate, emerge, then fade away — as if to deceive reality, or at least our perception of it. More than two semi-improvised hours in which Rue des G…
La Luce dell'Alba
La Luce dell’Alba is the new LP by Jolly Mare, conceived as an imaginary meeting with Piero Umiliani (on the centenary of his birth) and made possible by access to the original multitrack tapes provided by the Maestro’s family. Recorded between the legendary Sound Workshop in Rome and Oister Studio in Milan, the album weaves rearrangements and new overdubs, creating a suggestive dialogue between past and present. An ambitious, visionary project that renews Umiliani’s sonic legacy through Jolly M…
The other side
A new solo album from Seu Jorge reveals his 'other side' on this new solo album featuring Beck and Maria Rita. Produced by Mario Caldato Jr. (Beastie Boys), the album moves between jazz and bossa nova and is the result of a 16-year musical journey. Seu Jorge is ready to present to the world the most ambitious project of his international career. After 16 years in the making, “The Other Side” finally arrives on streaming platforms in May. A departure from the soul and samba that defined his solo …
New Old Medicine
Tip! Hot on the heals of their spectacular self-titled debut album, The Handover is back with their second long form composition, New Old Medicine. Aly Eissa (oud), Ayman Asfour (violin), and Jonas Cambien (vintage organ/synth) have been cutting their teeth on the international touring circuit for the past two years, landing from town to town in their seductive spaceship to blow people's minds and then dematerialize into the void. An outline for a new piece began to emerge along the route and la…
Doway Do Doway Do !?!!
Australian progressive fusion-jazz-symphonic rock act Pantha burst from the mid‑1970s with a uniquely spirited record, Doway Do Doway Do !?!!, a thrilling hybrid of rock, jazz, Latin American rhythms, West Indian grooves and occasional Zappa‑styled eccentricity. Originally released in 1975, the album showcases the group’s deft ability to marry virtuosic musicianship with irresistible danceable energy.
Doway Do Doway Do !?!! draws on the Santana hallmark of driving rock over Latin beats but expan…
Departures
Don Shinn’s Departures, first issued in 1969 and recorded at Lansdowne Studios in London just months after his acclaimed debut, returns in a newly remastered edition that highlights the record’s adventurous spirit and Shinn’s singular command of the Hammond organ. Where his debut established him as a rising force, Departures reveals a more overtly jazzy, exploratory side — muscular, unpredictable and deeply musical — that helped influence a generation of keyboardists, including the young Keith E…
Premiére Vision De L'Étrange
Ocarinah re-release of Premiere Vision De L’Étrange is a bold return to the space‑progressive roots of late‑1970s French prog. Across five expansive tracks the band delivers a masterclass in dynamic contrast, thematic development and instrumental daring — a record that feels both timeless and freshly strange. Recorded with a raw, immediate production that recalls vintage live tape, Premiere Vision De L’Étrange blends the loose, exploratory spirit of Canterbury progressive rock with the atmospher…
Terminal Boundaries and A natural water course diverted reduced or displaced (Book)
Made in 1969 but never published, Terminal Boundaries is an artist book by Lawrence Weiner, a sculptor whose medium was language. The manuscript for the publication, which was recently brought to light, contains two related bodies of work represented as typewritten statements on paper that Weiner pasted to the pages of a small composition notebook. The book’s absence from Weiner’s oeuvre plagued him as it marked a terminus of his relationship to the physical construction of his artworks, and ill…
Actual Earth Music - Volume 3 & 4
Earthball are an avant/noise/rock wrecking ball of a band from Nanaimo, Canada. Rooted in total improvisation, free expression, and a deeply psychedelic sensibility, EarthBall operate on pure instinct. They hurtle onwards in a combustion of spontaneous composition, shooting from the hip, as they fall out of the sky ablaze. The group encompass Isabel Ford (vocals, bass), John Brennan (drums, percussion), Jeremy Van Wyke (vocals, guitar, trumpet), Kellan Maclaughlin (guitar, talkbox), and Liam Mur…
Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive!
The music on Horse Lords’ Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive! feels both impossibly detailed and eminently human. The album’s twelve pieces are layered and interwoven, tonally and rhythmically complex––moiré-like patterns of interaction and tessellation that play out for both mind and body, full of sonic warrens with an inescapable groove. An electrifying leap forward for the band’s shared language, Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive! aims to liberate the listener into a spiritual, ecstatic, and…

Double Bubble
*2026 stock* Named one of 23 artists who are “changing the sound of classical music” by the Washington Post, Ben Roidl-Ward has been praised for his “dazzling technique” (The Sydney Morning Herald), “breathless virtuosity” (Bandcamp Daily), and “astounding flexibility and range” (The Double Reed).

Go On
*2026 stock* Drummer George Otsuka was a fixture of the Tokyo jazz club scene from the sixties onwards, leading a series of working bands that earned a reputation for tight ensemble playing and consistently high temperature. 'Go On', one of the early releases on Three Blind Mice, captures the quintet at the moment when its hard bop foundation was beginning to stretch into something more searching: there's still plenty of swing, but the modal frames and freer improvising of the surrounding scene …
Encounter
*2026 stock* One of the more obscure entries in the early Three Blind Mice catalogue, and a record that points to the label's willingness, from very near its beginning, to host visiting players alongside the domestic scene. The American saxophonist Allan Praskin worked at the international margins of the jazz circuit, and Encounter finds him in a quartet setting that draws on the rhythmic discipline of the Japanese players around him.
The writing sits firmly in the post-bop tradition: modal fram…
