New Arrivals / Today
Anoxia
*2026 stock* The second L A N D album, Anoxia, sees Daniel Lea return alone with an outing that marks a shift from the industrial-inflected jazz-noir of 2012's Night Within into distinctly new terrain. Mixed by Ben Frost at Greenhouse Studios, Reykjavík; mastered by Rashad Becker at D&M, Berlin. CD packaged in a combination offset/screenprinted jacket. "Anoxia" means "total absence of oxygen," and in Lea's hands the term heralds aural environments that are full of the dreams of humanity yet may …
Mirror/Leaks
*20 copies limited edition* D. Stine and Doug Fogelson return to LAD with their latest long player, Mirror/Leaks. Recorded shortly after their beguiling first collaboration Dusk Breathing, a slightly different approach is evident here. This followed their desire to chart a different course, as well as new geographic realities. Rather than being led entirely by their improvisational muses, the pair approached the recording dates for this album with more of a sense of intentionality.
Shortly aft…
Electric Telepathy
Pleasurewood return with 'Electric Telepathy', their second full-length LP offering Simla Space Funk, Psych-Library and Vintage-Cinematic Raga-Rock grooves. This new offering from the band embraces more of their vintage Hindi Cinema soundtrack influences — "Chump Change", "The Hoverfly" and "RAMMM" could easily fit into the middle of an R.D. Burman score, each with their incongruous synthesis of different genres, infectious percussion, classical modes and funk chops.
There is also a slight sweep…
Deltas
French composer, artist and co-founder of Transversales Disques, Jonathan Fitoussi has developed a distinctive body of work over the past two decades, blending analog synthesis, minimalism and electronic music. Inspired by the mineral landscapes and luminous atmosphere of southeastern France, Deltas is his fifth solo studio album. Combining hypnotic drum patterns, flowing pulses, shimmering electronic textures and contemplative movements, it unfolds as a deeply immersive journey through space, l…
Fresco
On Draconic Synthesis, Old Tower fuses past, present and speculative futures of its own sound into a single, coiled entity. Forest drones, star‑castles and serpentine motifs blur into seductively destructive dark music, lifting the first veil on the “horned serpent” whose scaly, symbol‑inked body is both dungeon and firmament.
Red Sulphur
First meeting of two incredible talents - Tyshawn Sorey on drums and Pat Thomas on piano.
Atropa
*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition* "Bill Harris is a community builder first and foremost. As one of the founders of the Amalgam collective, he has helped to keep Chicago’s storied improvised music scene together through the dark ages of the 2020s. Additionally, his studio space Marmalade has hosted performances from some of the most boundary-pushing voices of contemporary experimental music - artists such as Charmaine Lee, Brandon Lopez, Sandy Ewen and more - during a time in which such s…
Scenes Of Contestation... And The Expanded
*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition* This new album is a journey from the personal and contested space of my apartment in Oakland, California, during the dot-com boom, and the housing crisis brought on by the gentrification of the early 2000s. From San Francisco, we expand to the refuge of a ranch in Woodside, California, and the desert garden of Noah Purifoy, where we are expanding to the self and the alter-destiny. The recordings explore the different ways we encounter and experience vario…
BLK+LND / K&L for KL
Big tip! K&L for KL and BLK+LND bring together two of Phill Niblock's final compositions, conceived by Niblock as companion works and intended to travel together. Released by Sub Rosa, the record preserves a pairing that Niblock himself wanted heard as a whole. In 2022, Niblock asked bass clarinetists Katie Porter, based in New York, and Lucio Capece, based in Berlin, to record K&L for KL, a work for two bass clarinets and electronic playback. Porter and Capece perform together as Phase to Phase…
Drëun
This is supposed to be a 40th anniversary reissue. Well, it's still this but with year of a delay.. Well, it's still it but with year of a delay. It was told enough about the early Metgumbnerbone recordings. We just keep some quotes here.
"It’s hard to imagine anything more haunting than the folk horror ritual sounds which Metgumbnerbone conjured forth in the Ruins of Industry." - Kristian Olsson, Shock Tilt
"Working mainly with percussion, Metgumbnerbone evolves an improvisational continuum tha…
S∞S
** Edition of 100 ** Huerta Ensamble is a collaborative research project by Mexican artists Concepción Huerta and Daniela Huerta, dedicated to exploring sound through synthesis and magnetic tape experimentation. Their practice delves into tuning, electricity, spatiality, psychoacoustics, and the fundamental principles of sound, with live performances unfolding through improvisation and the dialogue unique to each setting.The album, "S∞S", treats sound as a living organism — alive with resonance,…
Mothers of All
*300 copies limited edition* Mothers of All is Mark Gomes' second album as Blue Chemise for Students of Decay, following 2018’s acclaimed Daughters of Time. Though built from very different materials, it shares its predecessor's economy, sense of proportion, and fascination with the ways domestic life can open onto larger and less easily defined realms. Where Daughters of Time evoked tender, if alien, nursery songs, Mothers of All takes the form of spectral salon music heard at a temporal and ge…
Baby Ghost
»Baby Ghost« is the debut album by double bassist and vocalist Jordan Sand. Released through Hallow Ground, it blurs the lines between different genres and modes of expressions, improvisation and composition and showcases the unique playing style the composer has developed. Sand blends her voice with the bowed harmonics and subharmonics of her double bass. At once conceptually rigorous and musically open-ended, Sand’s wordless meditations on death and what comes after are both visceral and explo…
Rapid Response
Three long-form compositions that peer through a glimmering aperature into diaphanous realms of textural experiences: “What are the pros and cons of being lost in a thought?”
Figures
*50 copies limited edition* Paul Sakai identifies as a cultural nomad, existing between cultural and physical spaces. Born in the United States, they are a yonsei Japanese American raised as part of the international community in Southeast Asia as a Third Culture Kid. Their work is an act of grounding – a practice of connecting their present body to place, people, and cultural histories. Their project, Roy Kiyo, is an extension of this practice. Works under this project are broadly catalogued as…
Presage
*50 copies limited edition* »presage« is an act of sonic foraging: shortwave radio transmissions and field recordings were collected around Helsinki, then assembled and transformed into two long-form pieces. Collecting radio brings with it a particular uncertainty, as signals may have travelled enormous distances before arriving stripped of their context and misted with static, interference, and the imprint of atmospheric conditions. A field recording is a more certain and geographically secure …

Single# Four (7")
*300 copies limited edition* At this point the vast swathes of unreleased Muslimgauze material Bryn Jones left behind when he passed away over 25 years ago is as legendary as any of his work. And sure enough, there's still some being unearthed today. The fourth entry is in a 7" single series taken from one of Jones' customary completely unlabelled DATs he sent to labels seemingly as fast as he finished them. A new series of singles collecting one of Bryn Jones’ innumerable DAT tapes that would s…
