In the Minoan culture of Crete, the sea was seen as a transitional zone to reach the afterlife. The sun reflected on the water took on the features of a path to follow in order to be reborn into a new life. Angeli crosses this place of passage, leaving behind granite for a sweeping lava-like transformation. While Lema passes through the concept of loss, within the space of his guitar-orchestra, the Sardinian musician celebrates an album that embraces both tradition and musical countercultures, c…

In his album Tarió, Manuel Contreras Vázquez presents a profound engagement with Latin American history, sound exploration, and experimental notation. Through intricate timbral textures and an architectural approach to composition, his works navigate themes of memory, resistance, and human experience. From intimate solo pieces to collective vocal and instrumental forces, Contreras Vázquez challenges conventional musical boundaries, blending silence, phonetics, and social narratives. This album o…

This compelling album presents works by Israeli composer Chaya Czernowin, exploring the fragile balance between destruction and communication, control and surrender. Seltene Erde transforms the double bass and ensemble into a shifting landscape of illusion and resonance, evoking the invisible forces shaping our world. Atara, born from the isolation of 2020, is a powerful orchestral lament, where vast sonic masses collide with the delicate voices of two singers, lost yet luminous. Through these w…

Haxholm & Kirstein's performance installation is a carefully planned two-day process involving smoke, lime, various containers, sound, movement and physical work - inside and outside the museum's grounds. The work explores connections between the sublime and the banal, between the work of the day and the elongated time of the material. Between these poles are energy exchanges and feedback processes that transform and dissolve themselves. The duo's works address a field between performative sound…

"Incidentally this cassette confirms a sinister suspicion I've had for a while that the synthetic pan flute is back - fantastic! I feel so lucky for this generous amount of delightfully bubbling synthesizer music from C.D. Noé. A 90 minute exploration of melodic geometry—intricate yet efforless, synthetic yet alive. Melodies ripple, chords shimmer, patterns unfold like a living system in balance. The artist never falls into the sharp-edged maximalism that, at least to my ears, often weighs down …

‘Get Ready’ by the Richard Last Group is one of the rarest LPs from the golden age of Italian progressive rock, originally released in a genre-changing 1972, both in Italy and internationally. Born in Milan in 1969 as Duu Duu, they became Richard Last Group two years later, when singer Maurizio Calò joined the line-up, later calling himself Richard Coley. ‘Get Ready’ is the only album released by the group, which, due to numerous line-up changes that also occurred during the recording of the alb…

Following three full-length collections and a transcendent series of individual long form works, Iceland’s Hyldýpi makes his Past Inside The Present debut with Heilun (tr: “Healing”), a set of seven pieces that flow across 90 blissful minutes. Formed only with guitar and a modest selection of hardware, each movement is an improvisation born from a state of meditation. According to the artist, these sonic sculptures are “inspired by the raw nature [of Iceland], both within and without… I feel as …

Volume 2 Since their debut album release in 1975, Azymuth have risen to rank alongside the world’s greatest jazz, funk and fusion artists. As young men in Rio de Janeiro, they stood out for both their exceptional talent as musicians, and their wild rock‘n’roll antics in the predominantly middle-class worlds of bossa nova and jazz. Their signature “Samba Doido” (crazy samba) sound ruptured the tried and tested musical structures of the day, resulting in what can only be described as an electric, …

*2025 stock* With an impressive discography tucked beneath his arms, JT Whitfield debuts on Strange Therapy. Confronting the relentless grip of human obsession and the struggle against its uncontrollable nature with his EP 'Birth of Compulsion'. Taking over with a chaotic medley of sonic debris and unstoppable violence, like in guise thoughts and behavior that hide somewhere while feeding on you and your neurons. At times, it maintains a steady pace, but mostly it kicks, claps and shoots in a di…

Pigeons fight the elements to reunite. Often dismissed, they carry with them stories of resilience, intelligence, and a longstanding companionship with humanity that dates back thousands of years. Jonathan Baker and Benedikta Ársælsdóttir explore as a solemn promise an emotional state of feeling isolated and seeking comfort in each other, like pigeons gathering at your local square, with their EP ´feathers´. The duo creates a sound that’s vulnerable yet abrasive, combining sonic elements of indu…

Dolphy’s complete April 4, 1964 Town Hall concert, a wonderful set in splendid Stereo sound quality. This concert was the last they played before traveling to Europe, where Dolphy would die shortly after. This is the first time the whole performance appears on a single set. Two extended songs from the group’s concert in Amsterdam six days later have been added as a bonus.

"We’re listening to Blue Train, which to me is one of the most beautiful pieces on one of the most beautiful records that Coltrane recorded in the fifties. It’s his first real mature statement and he wrote all but one of the tunes on this album which was very rare in the fifties and each one is a gem, particularly the title tune Blue Train. And while it’s kind of easy to play the blues, this has a suspended and haunting kind of quality to it." - Michael Cuscuna

Pianist and arranger João Donato was a major figure in the bossa nova movement. During his long career he recorded with many of the great names from both Brazilian and American Latin-jazz scene (Tom Jobim, Ron Carter, Airto Moreira, E. Deodato, Randy Brecker, Mongo Santamaria, Tito Puente, Cal Tjader, and several others). First released in 1963, this is a marvelous example of bossa jazz album featuring the highly syncopated drums grooves of Milton Banana and Amaury Rodriguez's Afro-Cuban flavore…

Shadow garden, a moonlit anthology of contemporary DIY guitar music.

Captured in the immersive cocoon of the Hypnose Room during the 2023 edition of La Nature, this debut release on Fleur Sauvage is a raw transmission of Katatonic Silentio’s improvisational live ritual. Split into four parts across two 12” records, this work moves between experimental abstraction, textured noise, and cinematic ambient. Tension runs like a thread through each piece—sometimes humming beneath the surface, sometimes rupturing into visceral sonic peaks that leave you breathless. Deep …

*2025 stock* “There have been quite a few conceptual records about the life cycle, however, ‘The Marylebone Greenwave’ stands out with its diversity and aim at the observations of the main protagonists.

*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* “Are We Now Here or Nowhere? is an unconventional album by Czech standards, it mixes several musical forms and genres.

*2025 stock* Je Suis Karl is a German feature film directed by Christian Schwochow with a screenplay by Thomas Wendrich. After their acclaimed collaborative album "A Portrait Of John Doe" Tom Hodge & Floex renewed their musical companionship to create this soundtrack. The duo created more than an hour of music inspired by the thriller screenplay long before the movie was finished and inevitably many of these ideas and tracks were not included in the actual movie. This official soundtrack has giv…

The recordings includes a live recording at Hokage, Osaka in December 2024 and studio recordings at Om Kult Osaka.

Perhaps you've chanced upon a Number Station, unwittingly as you scour the shortwave bands, and heard a cold, disconnected voice repeating simple commands endlessly into the ether. Or maybe you've scanned past a series of bleeps and pips, or pockets of noise, thinking nothing of them, as you seek a favoured music station. These are messages, to those who know how to receive them, and are able decode them in their various forms and configurations. Shropshire Number Stations - Recordings of Covert…

The second volume in a two-part collection of pirate radio adverts & idents, taken from recordings of London stations between 1984 & 1993. Many thanks to Wayne Anthony, Simon Reynolds, Stephen Hebditch & The Pirate Radio Archive.

*2025 stock* "Bertrand Gauguet's "Encerclements" is a profound sonic meditation on the interplay of sound, space, and abstraction. Encircling the listener with a delicate, almost hypnotic web of frequencies, the album merges ambient minimalism with glitch and noise, creating a kind of auditory labyrinth. (…) Perhaps it’s fitting that Gauguet embraces such a stripped-down approach. The album doesn’t demand attention; it slowly captivates, much like a distant memory trying to find its way back int…

"A note, a sound, an air, you can write them down and then leave them to be read or played; but you can also write nothing, just sit down, play your note, watch it flow and expand, add another to it and then another, and on and on. There may also be two of you: the second sits down, plays a note, watches it flow, adds another to it, and watches it drift and blend with the others. And then there can be three; the third arrives, sits down, plays a note, adds another, and another, and watches them …

Brooklyn’s 577 Records is ecstatic to introduce you to a soaring trio making a name for itself in the global experimental community.  Their debut album, Siesta, delivers blissful, organized chaos bolstered by these artists' seemingly limitless imaginations.  Expect the unexpected.  Forged from a 2024 chance meeting in Buenos Aires, Argentina, the Wallace, Vazquez, and von Schultz project came together as quickly as it did naturally.  Their “big bang” moment of origination occurred at the suggest…
