A La Altura: Visionary Mexican Music 1977-1999 - Volumes 1 & 2
Visionaries in Mexico have sought ways to look beyond the stars for millennia. Ancient civilizations like the Maya and Aztecs designed their cities as gigantic star maps, orienting their buildings to mark equinoxes, solstices, and zenith passages. This inquisitive form of meaning-making through art has long been endangered—first by Spanish colonizers; then by the Mexican government’s throttling of artistic expression in the late 20th century; and now by the violent anti-Mexican sentiments of the…
October & After the Fall
*100 copies limited edition, black vinyl* In continuation of our deep-dive into the diamond vaults of US Prog, it is with great pleasure that we bring you the first reissue of the 2 ultra rare albums by the Detroit-based October. This is a deliciously eclectic combo of sonic explorers whose recorded testament consists of a string of pebbles that crystalized in a collectively interminable quest for that eccentrically elusive eureka moment.
Fueled by King Crimson and Yes, but also by the improvis…
El Ultimo Cortejo
The mighty Argentine progsters Bubu make a triumphant comeback with their 3rd and final album El Ultimo Cortejo. Composed in part based on notes discovered by the band’s mastermind Daniel Andreoli in his parents’ basement, dating back to the Anabelas (1976) period, and in part on newly infused sonic elements by the evergreen lineup that boasts some of the finest upcoming musicians from Buenos Aires’ rampant neoprog scene, El Ultimo Cortejo carves new pathways in Bubu’s evolutionary trajectory by…
Can I Stare at You Publicly?
*300 copies limited edition* Berlin-based percussionist and vocalist Teresa Riemann presents Can I stare at you publicly?, a new collection of solo works for percussion and voice. The pieces are meticulously composed, while their origins lie in improvisation, and improvisation remains part of the way Riemann performs them.

Pleasure Ground
Twenty years on, Prurient's Pleasure Ground returns in the edition it always wanted. This is the hinge record in Dominick Fernow's catalogue, the one that opened the electronic chapter of the project: the scorched power-electronics of the early years meeting synth tones, slow doom weight and the meditative cold of Nordic black metal. Recorded in a single day, 14 February 2006, it first surfaced as a self-released double cassette sold at Carlos Giffoni's No Fun Fest in New York, then arrived in s…

Siege
Aux Armes returns with Siege, a merciless and deeply charged new album released by Minneapolis-based label Phage Tapes.
Built from punishing industrial electronics, stark rhythmic structures, and an atmosphere of permanent confrontation, Siege is music shaped by endurance. Its nine tracks move through tension, resistance, sacrifice, and remembrance, balancing mechanical force with a stark emotional weight. There is no release from the pressure: every pulse feels like a warning, every repetition …
