El Pulso del Acero: Shinkansen is Esplendor Geométrico's electrifying new album, blending trance-inducing industrial rhythms with bold voice and noise collages.

Amulets is the solo project of Portland-based audio and visual artist Randall Taylor. Amulets employs handmade cassette tape loops and live processed guitar loops to create live, lush soundscapes and immersive drones. Through the recontextualisation of cassettes, sampling, field recording, and looping, these long-form compositions blur the genres of ambient, drone, noise, and electronic music. Amulets has steadily built a catalog defined by tactile intimacy and patient exploration. Deeply immers…
Michel Houellebecq is, of course, well-known for his novels, translated into more than 40 languages, and his Goncourt Prize (The Map and the Territory, 2010), but perhaps less so for his debut album, released exactly a quarter of a century ago on Tricatel label. One can sense the influence of Serge Gainsbourg's L'Homme à la Tête de Chou, a disillusioned Procol Harum and a world-weary Burt Bacharach hovering over Houellebecq's poems in Présence Humaine, a now cult classic album orchestrated by Be…
Expanded Content: Includes a Bonus LP of rare live material from Denmark and Gothenburg. "Rock för kropp och själ" stands as the final, definitve statement from Träd, Gräs och Stenar during their original tenure with the legendary Silence label. By 1972, the band had reached a breaking point. After five years of relentless touring - defined by marathon three-to-four-hour performances delivered four or five nights a week - the collective was physically and creatively spent. The weight of expectat…
»vents d’aether« is the first collaborative album by sound artist Jérôme Bouve and composer-performer Delphine Dora for Hallow Ground. The six pieces are based on live improvisations on organ and harmonium. They were recorded in different churches on the Cotentin peninsula in France’s Normandy region and later enriched with additional field recordings by SA~RA. This adds an extra layer to compositions which were created both in and out of the moment and which quite literally resonate with the hi…
The collaborative project of Lawrence English and Werner Dafeldecker has consistently been concerned with processes of transformation. This is all the more true for »Fathom Tides,« the duo’s second album for Hallow Ground following up on »Tropic of Capricorn« from 2023. Using field recordings collected from diverse coastal environments made by English and later treated extensively by Dafeldecker, the two sound artists explore cyclical changes in nature across these seven pieces. Through its abst…
The first solo album from the legendary director and composer of Halloween, Assault on Precinct 13, The Snake and many more! With the 15 films he has directed and composed the soundtracks for, John Carpenter has single-handedly defined the sound of the horror genre. The film music alone manages to instantly conjure up, in the musical memory of the devoted fan, the menacing figure lying in wait for the babysitter, the ghost-filled mist, the kung fu fighters with their lightning-fast fists, or the…
Manifestations in the Shadow of an Uncertain Land unfolds through aleatoric composition and intuitive process, shaped by deeply entangled political and aesthetic lineages. Rooted in lived experiences of bodies and minds navigating the localized and global weight of imperialism, the work also draws from the temporal logic of film and literature, where memory, dread, and anticipation coexist. Working with voice and modular electronics, Lowe treats sound as a sculptural and cinematic force, informe…

California mail-order mystic Master Wilburn Burchette was first known from his ads, hidden in the back pages of Fate Magazine, Beyond Reality, and Gnostica News. On offer: Burchette's sevenpart, block-printed "Psychic Meditation Course," designe…
On their self‑titled debut, Secos & Molhados compress poetry, glam‑theatre and electric Brazilian folk‑rock into a 1973 time bomb, turning MPB, Portuguese folklore and queer futurity into a mass‑market hallucination that still feels shockingly present.
On Live at Yoshi’s 1994, Mal Waldron and Steve Lacy turn a decades‑deep partnership into a single, extended act of listening, folding Monk, Ellington, Strayhorn and their own themes into a stark, tensile dialogue where every note feels earned.
On Jazz Flamenco, Pedro Iturralde forges a taut, singing dialogue between Andalusian cante and modal jazz, letting saxophone and flamenco guitar trade roles as soloist and accompanist in a music that sounds both inevitable and newly invented.
On Elis, Elis Regina crystallises everything that made her singular: a precision‑tooled voice riding the fault line between control and abandon, bringing samba, MPB and jazz‑tinged arrangements to a rolling boil of drama and nuance.
On Vida, Chico Buarque folds everyday scenes, political undercurrents and bruised intimacy into a suite of songs where conversational melodies and sly, shifting harmonies turn ordinary lives into quietly explosive dramas.
On Louvação, Gilberto Gil fuses Afro‑Bahian rhythms, Northeastern folk and sleek mid‑60s modernism into a luminous songbook where liturgical overtones, street poetry and swinging arrangements announce a new, restless MPB imagination.
Domingo is the groundbreaking debut album by legendary Brazilian singers Caetano Veloso and Gal Costa, released in 1967 by the renowned Polydor label. This album captures the essence of traditional bossa nova, presenting smooth melodies and sophisticated rhythms that define the genre's timeless appeal. Although Domingo predates the tropicalist movement that Caetano Veloso would later champion, it offers a captivating glimpse into the early artistry and vocal interplay between two of Brazil’s mos…
Bomb! 328 pages hard-cover book, large format + 2CD of previously unreleased recordings. Keith Tippett (1947-2020) occupies a singular place in the history of British improvised music - a pianist of extraordinary range whose work moved fluidly between free jazz, large-scale orchestral composition, and solo improvisation of rare depth. Born in Bristol and trained first as a chorister, Tippett arrived in London in the late 1960s and rapidly established himself as a central figure in the city's cr…

50th anniversary limited edition. First-ever 24Bit/192kHz remaster from the original tapes. 180g black vinyl, numbered. His father was an American soldier from North Carolina who left Naples when James Senese was eighteen months old and never came back. What remained was a saxophone, a surname that didn't fit the neighbourhood, and two musical worlds that Italian society had no language to reconcile. Senese found that language himself - first in the soul and R&B of the Showmen in the 1960s, the…
