Exotica
Limited and numbered edition, featuring original artwork and a newly designed, beautifully crafted collector’s sleeve with new liner notes by Bradford Bailey, and pressed on 180g vinyl. Includes hi-res audio download. Among the most playful and pointed entries in Deutsche Grammophon's legendary Avantgarde series, Mauricio Kagel's Exotica returns to vinyl - a work that turns the Western fascination with the music of elsewhere into a piece of high comedy and, beneath the laughter, a quietly devast…
The Great Learning
Limited and numbered edition, featuring original artwork and a newly designed, beautifully crafted collector’s sleeve with new liner notes by Bradford Bailey, and pressed on 180g vinyl. One of the most quietly radical entries in Deutsche Grammophon's legendary Avantgarde series - the run of albums issued between 1968 and 1971 that did more than almost any other label project to document the experimental music of its moment - returns to vinyl. Recorded in London in 1971, the Scratch Orchestra's r…
Cybernetics III / Contrappunto Dialettico Alla Mente
Limited and numbered edition, featuring original artwork and a newly designed, beautifully crafted collector’s sleeve with new liner notes by Bradford Bailey, and pressed on 180g vinyl. A reissue of one of the most singular documents in Deutsche Grammophon's legendary Avantgarde series - a single LP that sets two radically opposed ways of working with magnetic tape against one another, both realized within months of each other at the same address: the Studio di Fonologia della RAI in Milan.

Health and Efficiency
For some fans, Health And Efficiency is This Heat's peak achievement - their most concentrated blast of visceral intensity and wayward experimentalism. Featuring two long pieces, the EP came out in September 1980. It was released on Piano, the imprint founded by David Cunningham of Flying Lizards, and distributed by Rough Trade, home of the burgeoning post-punk movement and fellow travelers like The Raincoats, Scritti Politti, Cabaret Voltaire and The Red Crayola.

Hélas
On Hélas, Neoboris’s boy‑and‑girl duo turns late‑90s Bordeaux and Pau into a neon scrapbook: punk directness, wave romance, rave afterglow and variété hooks tangled in 15 songs that mourn and celebrate a love that refused to apologise.
Turning Japanese: The Nakano Sun Plaza Radio Broadcast
Recorded in 1981, Turning Japanese captures Kraftwerk at the absolute height of their creative dominance, but sometime before their true induction into the household name superstar category of artists. Still representing a very forward thinking, boundary pushing and - as a result - specialist sound, this nine-track live recording feels like yesterday's tomorrow.
Opening with a stunning neo-classical synth overture, we're then taken on a journey through the mind of the man machine, an industrial …
About Time (LP)
*2026 repress* 1971’s ‘About Time’ was the Ping Pong debut album. Founded by Alan Taylor from The Casuals it was one of the first bands in Italy (based in Bologna) to be inspired by the British sound of the period moving between late ‘60 psychedelic rock and the jazzy prog such Jethro Tull, Tonton Macoute, Camel and Caravan. 10 tracks all sung in English delicate and exceptionally well performed with warm precision, enthusiasm and greater energy in which the excellent musicians highlight their a…
Hocketus
Hocketus is a new album for violin, cello, and electronics by Gage Salnikowski and Nathan Krahn. Built around a series of original MaxMSP patches, each piece creates a different relationship between the performers. Sometimes the electronics force one instrument to silence the other. Sometimes both players work together around a single sine wave. Other times the system latches onto pitches, interrupts signals, or shifts the balance of control between the musicians. Every performance is improvised…
Crónicas Intrascendentes
On Crónicas Intrascendentes, Akenathon threads a shadowed, cinematic strain of Argentine progressive rock through small, quotidian vignettes. Everyday scenes – a clown’s complaint, a kiosk errand, the death of a cobbler – become surreal miniatures where symphonic textures, narrative vocals and sly humor turn “inconsequential” chronicles into quietly unsettling parables.
The Homecoming
On The Homecoming, Disciple BC channel a raucous congregational energy into a tight, live-wire document. Cut over three days at Rockaway Park with Bri Doom at the desk, the record frames the band’s sermon of riffs and invective as both return and reckoning, with vocals and guitars welded into a single, volatile front line.
Infini
*2026 stock* It is the meeting between Marc Hurtado, known for his duo project Étant Donnés created in 1977—French experimental and industrial music—and Mark Cunningham from the New York No Wave scene since the late 1970s, under the entity Mars and compiled by Brian Eno in No New-York. The album Infini was born in 2020 and completed in 2023. This particular project is a kind of 360° astral journey—at the speed of light—carried away by grace, madness, fire, and the kaleidoscopic whirlwind of the …
Orgasm
*2026 stock* Certainly one of the greatest UFOs in music history—Cromagnon and its concept album “Orgasm” dating back to 1969—about what was to happen thirty years later: a blend of industrial, metal, and experimental music, bathed in improvised LSD-fueled experiences. “The project wasn’t supposed to be smooth, otherwise humanity is lost. There’s room for computers, but the soul is gone.”
No Becoming
*200 copies limited edition* Nashville-born, Minneapolis-based musician and artist Lee Noble has been active in the American noise underground since the early 2010s. His landmark LP, No Becoming, was originally released on cassette in 2011 via Sweat Lodge Guru (Motion Sickness of Time Travel, Sparkling Wide Pressure), followed by a limited-edition vinyl reissue in 2013 courtesy of Bathetic Records (Angel Olsen, Tashi Dorji, Daniel Bachman). 15 years later, No Becoming has achieved cult-classic s…
Shoot And Crucify
The third tape on the fledgling Cold Spring label, 'Shoot And Crucify' was released back in 1988 in an edition of just 50 copies (CS003). It features some of the very earliest works of many now-influential and essential Industrial / Noise / Experimental artists. The 'scene' at the time was built on the mail-art network, exchanging an explosion of ideas, sounds and art around the world via the (then very cheap) postal system. Just a handful of these 19 tracks have since been reissued, but the vas…
K-drone
When everything around is racing blindly toward ruin, change direction and spin as fast as you can until you defy gravity and rise above the ground into blissful madness. "K-drone", the debut album by three renegades—Jakub Šimanský, Michal Vaľko, and Ján Podracký—is like a hallucinatory Calvary with five stations. Each station is a time-loop capsule, a tiny utopia sneering at the phantom progress of the world outside. The opening track, "Speedrone", is pure vertigo; for seven long minutes, there…
Plumes
*75 copies limited edition* Plumes emerges from a long-term sonic and ethnographic exploration of the Étang de Berre, a coastal lagoon near Marseille, France shaped by industrial pollution and ecological disruption. Recorded between 2021 and 2024, the album captures fragile entanglements between human activity and more-than-human life. Using hydrophones, ultrasonic detectors, and parabolic microphones, Bullock and Silva probe the lagoon's submerged acoustics, bat echolocations, and the overlappi…
Sonavira
*75 copies limited edition* Created from field recordings gathered during a 2023 residency in the Brazilian Amazon, Sonavira explores the intersection of ecology, culture, and sound. Captured in the rainforest, along the Amazon River, and near the Balbina Dam, these recordings reveal a dense sonic environment where wildlife, indigenous presence, and the sounds of modern infrastructure coexist in uneasy harmony. Its title combines Latin and Romance-language roots associated with sound, life, grow…
ianua
*75 copies limited edition* Ianua takes its name from the Latin word for “door,” drawing inspiration from the symbolism of Janus—the two-faced deity of beginnings, endings, and transitions. Conceived as a cyclical work where the end folds back into the beginning, the album is built entirely from guitar sounds, transformed through a Plumbutter and recorded to tape. Changes in tape speed and playback irregularities introduce subtle imperfections and shifting variations, allowing the loops to evolv…
Avian Hydraulics
On Avian Hydraulics, Merzbow compresses four decades of noise praxis into a rarefied 10". A liquid-filled, rainbow-variant disc mirrors the music’s churning pressure: Masami Akita’s latest Munemihouse recording converts imagined bird-machines and fluid mechanics into a gleaming, corrosive miniature of his vast oeuvre.
Bonnie Dobson
Bonnie Dobson’s self-titled 1969 album is a striking blend of folk-pop and psychedelic nuances, marking a move beyond the traditional acoustic style that made her famous in the early 1960s. The album’s mood is often reflective and melancholic, balancing pastoral beauty with darker themes of change, loss, and uncertainty. One of the hidden gems of the album is track B4 “Pendant Que” by the celebrated Quebec songwriter Gilles Vigneault, which stands out since it is sung in French and reflects Dobs…
