Works
Four years have passed since the release of Jon Collin's majestic Bridge Variations on Discreet Music, arguably one of the most defining and well-received releases on the label. Works is the first LP under the Early Music artist name - first the title of a 2015 solo LP, then a name for a label before being used for a couple of recent cassette releases - and was recorded in Stockholm over a nine-month period last year. The main instrumentation is again the keyed fiddle - a traditional Swedish fol…

We Are Everyone
A dream come true for A Colourful Storm to be releasing an early gem by Tenniscoats, a duo whose DIY spirit, boundless creativity and lust for life and collaboration has left an indelible mark. From self-releasing albums and tapes on their own Majikick imprint to meeting kindred spirits The Pastels, Bill Wells and Jad Fair in between outings for Morr Music, Chapter and Häpna, to name but a few, Tenniscoats have embodied an understated determination and optimism for over two decades.
"A foghorn m…
Faux Départ
Welcoming Tori Kudo back to A Colourful Storm with a new edition of Maher Shalal Hash Baz's Faux Départ, a document of a stateside tour that culminated in a recording session at the legendary Dub Narcotic Studio with a one-time ensemble of Greg Saunier and Chris Cohen (Deerhoof), Andrew Maxwell, McCloud Zicmuse, Arrington de Dionyso, Takashi Ueno, Saya Ueno, Naoki Otani, Akiko Hotaka, Masaaki Endo and Naoki Otani. Always spontaneous, never rehearsed. Music in and of this world, seemingly teeteri…
Hits Different
Following their debut “Jazz Report From The Hood", which proved a major success and brought attention to Omasta as one of the most distinctive groups emerging from the contemporary jazz scene, the musicians return with their second album, “Hits Different”. The record develops the language established on their debut, pushing it into new territory and shifting the perspective from that of the protagonists themselves to that of a narrator telling the story. In just one year, Omasta went from an eme…
No Skill Comedy Mind Reading
Aaron Dilloway returns to Dais Records with 'No Skill Comedy Mind Reading', his first full-length album since 2017, a collection of characteristically jarring, absurdist material. Marked by his signature distortions and contortions — feedback-shrouded found sounds, field recordings, and vocal improvisations — 'No Skill' collects nearly a decade of select solo work and feels distinctly in the present, a scattered product of volatility, both harsh and humorous. Few contemporary experimental artist…

Headache Contest
A few weeks ago I hit up this resale shop I haven't been to before. Serious junk store.. stuff piled up everywhere, I had to lay on a pile of Christmas wreaths just to dig through some of the records. Anyway... I get to the electronics room. Ironically enough it has no lights... I start looking with the flashlight from my phone. Mountains of wires and junk and speakers and modems. I see this metal box laying randomly under a bunch of wires, I pull it out thinking it's probably some old telephone…
Couldn't Care Less
Been a fan of Brian Ruryk since the early 90's when Pete Larson convinced me to buy his Out Guitar Explosion 7" on the classic Stomach Ache label. Fan for life! So honored to release this new cassette of garbage throwing tape cut-up guitar spasticity. Twenty things happen before you blink...brains blast out of ears... fly back into nostrils... next thing ya know yer using guitar strings as dental floss. Thats a warning!

In Vago Spirito
To wander means to relinquish the idea of a destination—moving through sound without immediately seeking a form, allowing chance encounters, shifts, and resonances to suggest the path. It is from this gesture that "In Vago Spirito" emerges, the new album by Italian vocalist, composer and sound artist Ludovica Manzo. The record marks a new chapter in Ludovica Manzo’s ongoing exploration into the dialogue between free improvisation and composition—a path previously charted through her work with th…
Il diavolo nel cervello
Beat Records returns with a new CD edition of Ennio Morricone's score for Il diavolo nel cervello, the 1972 psychological thriller directed by Sergio Sollima. Long absent from Italian shelves, this is a rare excursion into giallo territory for a director better known for westerns and crime pictures, and it drew from Morricone one of his most fully realised scores for the genre - a lyrical main theme carried by the voice of Edda Dell'Orso, set against dissonant string writing and passages of real…
Fresco
Lussuria returns with Fresco, the latest full-length from the New York project of Jim Mroz, issued on LP by Hospital Productions. A quieter and more painterly record than much of what has come before it, but no less haunted.
Active since 2007, Lussuria has quietly assembled one of the most distinctive bodies of work within the Hospital Productions orbit. Mroz came to wider attention with the American Babylon series in 2012, then a run of releases that moved between dark ambient, muted industrial…
Suicidal Super Power
Furthermore, from prefectures and coral shores emerges a handmade zine—Red Factory Decapitation—that explores industrialised dishonour, the counter-system of ancient rituals, and the notion of an honourable death as a means of securing passage into the afterlife. It portrays an estranged warrior class whose melancholy is gradually eclipsed by ruinous hysteria, culminating in the amplification of maniacal laughter.

You are red tail lights, you are small and simple, you entertained me, i want to destroy this you, i imagine you between two columns, you are small and simple, i want to destroy this you, you are a passion, i must deal with lucifer.
The Hurting (Tape)
*75 copies limited edition* Richard Ramirez returns with The Hurting, a devastating new tape that plunges deep into the bleakest corners of harsh noise, industrial decay, and psychological unrest.
Across its abrasive and suffocating soundscapes, The Hurting transforms distortion into a language of pain. Layers of feedback, blown-out frequencies, metallic resonance, and corrupted textures collide and collapse, creating an atmosphere that feels both brutally physical and deeply internal. This is n…
