I Love Noise
Biiig Tip! Edition of 300. Paal Nilssen-Love and Joe McPhee started playing together when Paal was 25. Now he’s 50, so this musical dialogue has been going on for the quarter of a century. It has taken many forms, first with The Thing, then The Thing/Cato Salsa Experience big-band, on to the Peter Brötzmann Chicago Tentet, with several one-off collaborations on the way (some previously released on PNL) – but throughout the years the duo format has been the best way to hear these two voices. It’s…

*First time on vinyl* Despite all their incredible work, record labels often get the short end of the stick. We rarely place their efforts on the same plane as the music they dedicate themselves to bringing into our lives. Far more than simply a means of production and distribution, great labels are ecosystems unto themselves; free-standing, singular environments that offer the context and understanding that allow their artists to thrive. Two such cases are the imprints, Soave and Cinedelic. Sin…
Gangsters '70
Cinedelic returns on the back of some pretty incredible releases over the last year with one of their most exciting and unexpected records to date, the first ever release of the legendary composer Egisto Macchi's soundtrack for Mino Guerrini’s 1968 film, “Gangsters '70”. Created in collaboration with his Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza associate, Walter Branchi, it's among the most strikingly experimental of all his soundtrack work and remains startlingly urgent more than half a centu…
Sull'accordo mimetico
Sull’Accordo Mimetico (On the Mimetic Chord) dates back to the end of the 80’s. It was commissioned by the artistic director of the ParcoScenico Festival, held in Treviso, Italy. Since the area where artists and the public gathered after the Festival was located to a very busy street, Marco asked me for a sound installation that could work as some sort of a defensive barrier for the street noise. I suggested that my work, rather than hiding the noise, should aim to harmonize the disturbances com…
Le Città Invisibili (Le Città e i Morti) LP
**First time on LP. 300 Copies in colored vinyl** A Marco Dalpane's unreleased recording (mainly known for the cult album “Scorie” released with Tiziano Popoli) produced in 1991 for Radio Rai as an accompaniment to the reading of Italo Calvino “Le città invisibili” ("Invisible Cities”). First thing you notice is how Marco Dalpane personal soundtrack for “Le città invisibili” could be seen as a link towards the combinatorial approach adopted by Italo Calvino in the book, where he used the languag…

The label Soave proposes these two fundamental documents of the period reprinting them for the first time in a limited edition on double Lp.The composit…
Dialoghi Nel Vuoto
When No Pussyfooting was released in 1973 by two great pioneers like Eno and Fripp, that first whisper of their artistic association surprised many critics and fans. Yet, that kind of minimalist ambient sonority carried out by the two appeared in the ear like something absolutely new and innovative. Although nowadays we might be more accustomed to creative operations of this type, we are still fascinated, while listening, by the still possible achievement of relevant moments of musical epi…
Isolation
A real brain ripping free jazzing blast from the past. Togashi Masahiko may be a name you have already encountered if you are a bit acquainted with Japanese free hardcore blowing jazz. He was the man responsible for churning out Japan's first free jazz disc being “We Now Create” for which he got assisted by Takayanagi Masayuki and Yoshizawa Motoharu amongst others. The following year in 1969, he teamed up with another hardcore blowing spirit, Takagi Mototeru - one of Japan's most unique sax howl…

Subdivisions
*200 copies limited edition.* What sets 400 Lonely Things apart is its ability to turn seemingly mundane or discarded sonic artifacts into evocative, almost cinematic experiences. The project’s work resonates with fans of dark ambient, hauntology, and experimental sound design, offering a gateway into worlds where time has fractured and memories linger like spectral echoes. Subdivisions, the latest album from 400 Lonely Things, marks a departure from the project's conceptual and thematic approac…
Sensational Jazz '70: Vol. 1/2
The agony of hard bop, the rise of jazz-rock, and the emergence of free jazz. The definitive live recording that captures the chaos and climax of jazz in Japan. Japan's jazz scene around 1970 is very interesting. The agony of hard bop, the rise of jazz-rock, and the emergence of free jazz. New music and values were born one after another, and chaos was reached, and up-and-coming musicians ran at a speed that shook off the meter.
This album "Sensational Jazz '70 Vol. 1/2" is famous as a live soun…

Sounds Of Sound L.T.D.
Jazz drummer and bandleader Takeshi Inomata crafted an impressive discography throughout his career, but none quite matches the brilliance and intensity of Sounds of Sound Ltd, his 1970 album featuring his regular studio band, Sound Ltd. Released during a period when the distinctions between jazz, jazz-funk, and jazz-rock were increasingly blurred, the album seamlessly delivers infectious grooves, intricate solos, and uplifting musical motifs. This sense of speed, this sense of elation. The man …
Buzzsaw - 500V
150 copies limited edition "This one is destined to become a collectors item! When Das Rad toured across the north of England in September 2024, our take on the old psych garage classic Buzzsaw by The Turtles proved to be a popular live number - so much so that we decided that while it might not fit on an album, it would make a great vinyl single. So here it is!" - Discus Music

An extraordinary meeting of three artists from three different musical worlds and three different continents.

Live at Opus 40
*100 copies limited edition* ⎤⎤⎤, the duo of Chantal Michelle and Grace Villamil, are interested in what they term "sound obliteration"—a paradoxical process that, in their hands, reveals teeming masses of sonic detail. The pair works in a variety of modes, including composition, installation, and performance. Live at Opus 40 begins with machinic drones that expand and dissolve into the warm, open-air environment where it was recorded, initially anchored by the site's rock formations. The piece …
The Sea
*100 copies limited edition* The Sea is a fine example of a beautiful exchange between composer and performer, with Francisco del Pino’s precise and rhythmically intricate compositions brought vividly to life by Charlotte Mundy’s clear, subtly emotive and powerful voice. Despite having unmistakable reference points in early polyphony, The Sea employs harmonies, rhythms, and articulations that reach out gently but firmly. The repetition of syllables in “Material” brings out the thrill of small ch…
Zep Tepi
"The duo of Samantha Flowers and Tyler Hicks have been perfecting their dulcet tones for over ten years now. Combining, as if in a cauldron, blender, or analogous mixing device equal parts Detroit basement blues, Wackie's style studio murk magic and an old hard drive packed to the brim with Mutant Sounds downloads, they have managed something truly rare in this most dismal of decades: sonics recognizably their own.
These Kosmischen Kuriere also excel at another uncommon trait given time/place, r…
Pound To Stone
Looking for something out on the Chilterns, Philadelphian Christian Mirande persuaded Loiners Kieron Piercy and Anna Peaker to join him on the search. Guided by a hallucination of a Victorian cave full of grape lights, three friends venture into the heart of Tory weekend wreckage and found Pimms fueled madness and bunting choking out the working class. It produced 8 tracks of concrete, processed field recordings and acoustic flourish tracked in a cottage; glued with vari-mu compression and deep …
River Transcription
Gently lay your palm on the warmed belly of a flat stone, and skim your humming thoughts across the murmuring divide. The opposite shore is a shadowed encampment of slowly stirring shingle. Autumn effervesces and spreads in a calm blanket of diffused musk, looping around two shallow mouthfuls of sunshine. A stave is transcribed along the tilted stasis of shoreline - silence holds a seance in the clay and the river intones its folly in electric bursts, ingesting the fretted, lemony light, and uns…
