John Coltrane’s legacy defies boundaries—not only musical ones. From his early beginnings in Philadelphia to his final, urgent explorations of the unknown, Coltrane continually expanded the language of modern music, transforming the possibilities of the jazz saxophone and redefining the relationship between performer, composition, and spiritual expression. His playing was never merely virtuosic: it was a deeply personal force, capable of moving from the most delicate melodic statements to torren…
“Few bands in the history of jazz have reached the heights achieved by this group... The entire LP is fantastic. I cannot imagine being without it.” – Ralph J. Gleeson. These words perfectly capture the enduring power of Cookin’ with the Miles Davis Quintet, a landmark recording by one of the greatest ensembles ever to shape the history of jazz. In the mid-1950s, the quintet brought together Miles Davis on trumpet, John Coltrane on tenor saxophone, Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers on double b…
*OBS, the book is in Dutch language only* Tijd voor een feestje: 2026 – 50 jaar punk en 30 jaar Het Gejuich Was Massaal, de geschiedenis van de punk in Nederland, 1976 tot 1982. Wat in 1996 al eindeloos lang geleden leek, is nu een eeuwigheid. Het oorspronkelijke boek was zwart-wit en had hier en daar best wat foutjes. In 2022 verscheen een 1-op-1-herdruk maar ook een Engelse vertaling met een sprankelend nieuw design, in full colour, met een uitgebreidere discografie met veel afbeeldingen en ee…
In 1984, Frans de Waard published Archive 1, a fanzine containing nothing but discographies of bands he liked: The Legendary Pink Dots, Nocturnal Emissions, Van Kaye + Ignit, Attrition, Esplendor Geometrico, DDAA, Konstruktivits, Portion Control, and P16.D4. At a time before the Internet, it was a much-valued resource for fans of these bands, although hopelessly out of date by today’s standards.
Shortly afterwards, he published issue 2, with discographies of bands on the Insane Music label: Pseu…
A landmark of 1970s Turkish psychedelic funk, Zafer Dilek’s Oyun Havaları returns to vinyl 50 years after its original 1976 release on the legendary Yonca Müzik label.
Tom Penaguin returns with Tom Penaguin II, a compelling new album that expands on the sound, spirit, and identity established in his previous work. Confident yet exploratory, the record captures an artist moving forward without losing sight of what makes his music distinctive.
Across the album, Tom Penaguin blends atmosphere, melody, and emotional depth into a collection of tracks that feels both intimate and expansive. Tom Penaguin II is a record shaped by contrasts: reflective moments meet bur…
The Kiila Feminist Archive Bibliography provides an annotation and contextualisation of works by founding members of the Finnish leftist anti-fascist writers’ group Kiila (wedge).
Still active today, Kiila was founded in 1936 with the explicit goal of being a counterforce to Finnish and European fascism, and increasing militarisation. The book focuses on the works of four women writers involved in Kiila, who were marginalised both by mainstream literary critics and their own male comrades withi…
Between 1970 and 1973 Soft Machine recorded five albums for CBS, and across those five records the band changed almost beyond recognition. Third still had Robert Wyatt singing on one side of it; by Seven there were no vocals, no Wyatt, no Elton Dean and no Hugh Hopper, and the group was playing a dense, written, riff-driven music that had more to do with Miles Davis's electric bands than with anything else coming out of England. This box follows that arc in detail. All five albums are here, rema…

*2026 stock* Alluvium, a collaborative project of Nika Kaiser and Nathan Stickel, uses a combination of composed and improvised video projection, field recordings, and experimental sound. They create performative installations responding to site-specific details within each of their works, drawing ties between the political and the spiritual. The geologic phenomenon of alluvium occurs when loose clay, silt, or sand has been deposited by running water in a streambed or floodplain for an impermane…
*2026 stock* Bolt of Void was sleeping in the dark, earthen soil for almost 7 years, and like the locust, the group emerged again, anew -- Gate is a wormhole, unlocked ceremonially -- A star-gate traversal that reaches terminal velocity and the feeling of moving forwards, backwards, and not at all become the same. Centered around extreme noise, drone clusters, and atonal portal jumping, the trio's dense sound is powered via three expanded lap steel guitars, bells, and resonant metal. Bolt Of Voi…

Trost Records is pleased to release Live at Kafé Hærverk, the latest transmission from one of the most exciƟng figures in European jazz, the Oslo-based Danish saxophonist and composer Amalie Dahl. Since dropping the debut album with her stellar quintet Dafnie in 2022, Dahl has enjoyed a meteoric rise, both in terms of acclaim and ambition. This new live album, taped at one of Oslo’s most beloved venues in March of 2025, arrives on the heels of the duly lauded Dafnie Extended—Live at Molde Jazz, …
Errands is the first duo recording from Marja Ahti, Swedish-Finnish sound artist and electroacoustic composer, and John McCowen, a native of Southern Illinois, now residing in Iceland, whose work centres on a radical exploration of clarinet multiphonics. Working without the aid of electronics, McCowen has spent years finessing performance techniques that allow him to layer beating patterns and split tones that belie their source in a monophonic instrument. Ahti, in contrast, has built up a stunn…
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, vibration, and extra…
Bo Harwood (1946–2022) was one of those behind-the-scenes figures of American independent cinema: a self-taught musician, composer, sound editor, sound mixer and songwriter.
Harwood started out as the lead singer and guitarist of a Southern California rock band before a chance meeting with John Cassavetes changed the course of his career. He scored his first feature, The Bach Train, in 1969, and later joined Husbands as an inexperienced assistant in the editing room. He gradually became Cassavet…
To be pierced is a process of change: what’s inside opens to what’s outside, and vice-versa. 'Pierced (June17th)' is a document of such a process, a series of reorientations following a rupture.
Massive, piercing, and raucous - deliberately raw and disorienting, "Noise" features tracks by musicians from mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan: Torturing Nurse, Wang Changcun, Mei Zhiyong, Ronez, Wang Fujui, Orgasm Denial, Li Jianhong, Xu Cheng, Zafka, and more... Originally released in a small edition China-only 2CDR 15-track set (2012, Kwanyin Records), this new edition of "Noise" incorporates seven additional sets of works; 22 tracks in total. Scattered throughout, they feel entirely nat…
