Apices
JEM3 is an improvising trio that brings together the wide-ranging talents of three unique musicians: drummer JT Lewis, guitarist/reed player Elliott Sharp, and guitarist Marco Cappelli. The JEM3 found its genesis in an improvised set at the behest of Cappelli. The results felt great to all and so more shows followed. They decided to book a session at GSI Studios and this debut album Apices is the result. In addition to their mastery of their instruments and innovative approaches, JEM3 operates f…

Surface Disorder
Multi-instrumentalist, visual artist, and scene creator, Jonathan Uliel Saldanha, has been releasing music under various guises for two decades. With the successes of his moniker HHY (Nyege Nyege Tapes) whether in symbiosis with The Kampala Unit or the syncopationophilic big band of The Macumbas, Jonathan Uliel Saldanha's sonic signature continues to grow more and more singular. Ever synthetic and digital, Uliel Saldanha's work-ethic never eases—having recently started a label of his own, Horror…
Construcao
Construção (Portuguese for 'Construction') is the eighth studio album by Brazilian singer-songwriter Chico Buarque, released in December 1971. It was composed in periods between Buarque's exile in Italy and his return to Brazil. Lyrically, the album is loaded with criticisms of the Brazilian military dictatorship, especially with regard to the censorship imposed by the government at the time. It is widely regarded by music critics as one of the greatest Brazilian albums of all time.

The new compositions, which were written by Weiss specifically for these musicians, range from deep, meditative moments to intense, high-energy peaks, while every track unveils a new layer of exploration.
Brennan’s sonorous mallet work co…
Music For Writers
Music for Writers is a wordless collection of pieces meant to accompany thought and inspire another way. It is music made in both stillness and motion, music that listens as much as it speaks. Each track offers a space—open, textured, often slow-moving—where ideas, images, and feelings drift in and out. It's a record I've been thinking about and wanting to make for a long time - my first solo instrumental album. The album was recorded across places—Brooklyn, Berlin, Latvia—using a minimal setup:…
Last Shot At Heaven
When describing the "Last Shot at Heaven" cover art on the Skullflower Bandcamp page, Matthew Bower highlights the ambiguity of the striking photograph of a civilian casualty during the Yugoslavian schism. "Is it ecstatic[?]" he asks of the woman's expression. This, too, is a question one could reasonably ask of any Skullflower album.
Bower and his many cohorts' body of work is full of lengthy compositions that evoke all manner of emotions. Statement records like "IIIrd Gatekeeper", released a y…

First released by Extreme in the massive, infamous 'Merzbox,' "Red Magnesia Pink" is extracted and recontextualized as a standalone release for the first time. Recorded in 1995, "Red Magnesia Pink" sees Merzbow in peak form. A psychedelic whirlwind of synthetic transmissions; harsh, wet, screeching sounds that could only be produced by Masami Akita. Featuring two previously unreleased bonus tracks from the same era.

Fruits of Patience
Born from a shared love of Aerial M, Lung Fish and other contemplative, cyclical and slow moving rock music from the Chicago and Louisville scenes, Fire Nearby are a guitar duo exploring long-form automatic song writing for the autumn season. Although McLean and Birchall have tussled together in a variety of free-improv groups over the last decade, their friendship has always been rooted in similar formative years spent gigging in, obsessing over and learning to play guitar to the same post-ever…
Styx
Arriving just four months after his previous release, Tombed Visions obsession with the work of guitarist Takashi Masubuchi continues with the release of 'Styx'.
Microcanonical Ensemble
Microcanonical Ensemble is an album woven with subtle paradoxes, balancing stasis and movement, resonance and decay, improvisation and composition, precision and raw performance. While the echoes of Morton Feldman, Jürg Frey, and the Wandelweiser scene whisper through their music, the group's contrasting approaches, coupled with an openness and fragility, create a sound that is rustic and fallibly human.
With purely acoustic instrumentation, the quartet of Takashi Masubuchi, Wakana Ikeda, Tom So…
Metamorphosis
*250 copies limited edition* Both unflinchingly experimental and undeniably listenable, Metamorphosis is a mid-career reinvention from masterful vocalist Holly Palmer. Conceived with producer / multi-instrumentalist Pete Min, and developed in the studio through improvisation and experimentation, the result is jazz-inflected art-pop, as warm, playful and inviting as it is uncategorizable, a record brimming with radiant supporting performances from heavyweights like Cuong Vu, Jeff Parker, Benny Bo…
