Aguirre Bundle (3LP Bundle)
A three-LP bundle gathering the latest Aguirre reissues from two corners of contemporary folk and experimental music, offered together at a reduced price.
Two of the records belong to Brannten Schnüre, the Würzburg duo of Christian Schoppik and Katie Rich, who have spent more than a decade building a singular world at the borders of dark folk, musique concrète, ambient, and narrative conceptualism. Sommer im Pfirsichhain, the summer panel originally issued in 2015, and Geträumt hab ich vom Marti…
Stella Kola
Originally self-released in 2023, Stella Kola, the debut album from Beverly Ketch (Jow Jow, Weeping Bong Band) and Robert Thomas (Sunburned Hand of the Man, Dalthom), now returns in a renewed edition - bringing wider attention to a record that already felt like a quietly essential artifact from the moment it first appeared.Given the pair’s respective roots - and the presence of collaborators drawn from across the Northeast experimental underground - one might expect “a brutal blast of acid swirl…
Sonic Boom, Spectrum & E.A.R. Vinyl - (Book + Flexi)
In Sonic Boom, Spectrum & E.A.R. Vinyl, Danny Passarella turns Pete Kember’s solo history into a 300‑page artifact: every record from “Angel” to A ? Of When, unreleased audio, new interviews and ephemera mapped into a definitive, tactile chronicle.
Strange City
On Strange City, Merzbow drags Sun Ra’s archival fire through a bank of howling electronics, turning rare Saturnian jazz fragments into towering, cosmic noise storms where horn blasts, rhythms and feedback fuse into a single, irradiated signal.
Béke
**CD Version* “Peace is not the word to play” rapped Large Professor on Main Source’s 1991 debut album. His plea to stop abusing the word “peace” simply for rhetoric flair sounds just as valid in today’s genocidal world as it did in the streets of New York over 30 years ago. For Oiro Pena to name this album Béke, meaning peace in Hungarian – or white people in French Caribbean creole – it seems like they finally have something to say. With this group/concept/project called Oiro Pena, circling as…
Love Walked In
There is a particular kind of record that only happens when a visiting player drops into a local scene and everyone raises their game. Love Walked In is one of those. For a short run of dates in 2024 the New York pianist Michael Kanan joined the Leeds trio of Alex Fisher, Simon Henry and Elliot Roffe, and the group carried that chemistry into a small hillside studio above Keighley, in West Yorkshire, to commit it to tape. The result is a single, unrepeatable meeting of veteran New York swing and…
at Studio Pelto
Over the past decade Helsinki has quietly become one of Europe's busiest cities for young jazz players, and few labels have done more to document that activity than Jazzaggression. Uusi Jazzi Klubi - the loose collective that bills itself as the city's underground jazz club - return with their second album, recorded across two days in the spring of 2024 at the label's own Pelto Studio. Nothing here was written in advance. Drummer Aleksi Tanhuala gathered the players, set the tape rolling, and le…
Introspection
Brazilian guitar music has a way of folding the whole century into a single instrument, and few players carried more of it in their hands than Luiz Bonfá. Most listeners know him through the songs he wrote for Orfeu Negro, the ones that helped carry bossa nova out of Rio and across the world. Introspection, cut for RCA in 1972, is the quieter counterweight to that fame: eight original pieces for solo guitar, recorded at a moment when Bonfá had stopped chasing the hit and turned inward.
Silver Music
For close to a decade the sound of Italian cinema and television ran through four musicians from Rome. I Marc 4 were the rhythm section the country's leading composers reached for first, and between sessions they cut a long run of library albums under their own name. The scarcest corner of that catalogue sits on two companion imprints, Silver Music and Silver Men, issued in 1976 and seldom seen since. This new edition draws the strongest material from both onto a single LP, in the original milit…
Metlasr
Metlasr is an album for microtonal idiophones and modular synthesizer by composer/producer Tyler Friedman for Radicant_Editions.
Big Rigs on the BQE
Prison’s third big one, Big Rigs on the BQE, finds our jammers of legend far away—miles from Downstate (2025) and Upstate (2023): driving further down the road, Prison’s guitar, bass and drums compel them to dream loud. An improvised rock and roll tapestry, multiple impulses, intersections and lifelines rended with gas ‘n guitar pedal on down to the metal. Reflecting real lives lived today, sprawled and recalled in undulating electroacoustic performance. On March 7th 2024, Prison vets Sarim Al-R…
Plot
*300 copies limited edition* Crossing borders between traditions, sonic territories, and instruments, musicians Tomáš Niesner and Aldana Duoraan created their first collaborative album Plot. The sound of khomus meets guitar melodies simplified into pentatonic scales, intertwining in a dialogue that remains playful while moving between meditative passages and bewitching, hypnotic moments. Solid yet ever-changing, these melodies explore a delicate relationship between the present interactions, the…
The Return Of DJ Grzyb
Born on the fertile slopes of Mount Centyrz, sourced from the remnant ashes of a devastating epidemic that wiped out the region centuries ago, the spirit of DJ Grzyb sprouts from the soil like a white-capped monk clad in fungal vestments. Untethered from human language, waiting to be harvested by virtuous hands; only then delivering its immortal knowledge. Legend tells that it was once carried away by supernatural forces seeking to recall the fairy tales of its ancestors, the protective spirits …
Głowy
*100 copies limited edition* "When AJ Lee stepped back into the ring in September 2025 - after a ten-year break - she introduced herself to a new generation of fans with the words: 'If you haven't heard of me, I am your favorite wrestler’s favorite wrestler.' That is exactly what came to my mind as a lead for this blurb when Pokusa asked me to write it. Because that’s what they are: your favorite indie darlings' favorite indie darlings (even though no one uses that term anymore, let alone identi…
Blood Blood Song
"Blood Blood Song continues East of the Valley Blues’ streak of sublime, future-forward acoustic fantasias. For years, the Toronto-based duo, comprised of brothers Kevin and Patrick Cahill, has excelled at an earthy and pensive brand of instrumental music inspired by notions of folk music as a global, rather than regional, idiom.While the duo’s elegant and unassuming virtuosity easily distinguishes East of the Valley Blues from its contemporaries of would-be Bashos and fledgling Faheys, it is th…
All Thoughts Fly
Sacro Bosco (“Sacred Grove”) is the starting point for Anna von Hausswolff’s All Thoughts Fly. Here in solo instrumental mode, the entire record consists of just one instrument, the organ, and represents absolute liberation of the imagination. All Thoughts Fly radiates a melancholic beauty, and is distinguished by fluid transitions of contrasting elements; calmness and drama, harmony and dissonance, much like the place that inspires the music. Sacro Bosco is a garden, based in the centre of Ital…
Bury Me In A Corner Of The Yard
Death Is Not The End issue a 14-track tape of vintage and archival Cajun ft. tracks from Segura Brothers, Amede Ardoin, Blind Uncle Gaspard, Sydney Landry & more.
Curse You, Foreign Lands
A 14-track tape pulling together rural Greek demotika recordings from the late 1930s to the mid-1950s. Soaring pentatonic improvisations, odd-metered rhythms, and vocal performances oscillate between heartbreaking laments and ecstatic celebrations.
Holzweg
Forest Factory is the duo of fellow nomads Elvin Brandhi and Andreas Trobollowitsch. Each using self-made turntables, sampler and voice to create a unique acoustic repertoire, suffusing computational and organic tonalities. Their vinyl debut Holzweg is a compositional amalgamation of recording sessions made in diverse ecosystems: Auditorium Novecento, Naples (2023), Ruang MES 56, Yogyakarta (2024), and their Japan tour in 2024. Redefining themselves in a range of contexts lends fluidity and plur…
Wall of Lanterns
*20 copies limited edition* Chiming gamelan like flutterings, a clean ascendant nothingness, recorded live on two iphones.
