In process of stocking, totally sold-out at source * Limited Edition Sea-Haze Blue Vinyl * Matthew Sage is about seeing the big picture, but focused through the most intimate and personal lens possible.

Now, the Chicago-based composer, p…

Edition of 200 copies. After seven years New Zealand’s Claypipe return with a new full-length album, Sky Wells. Claypipe was formed in the early 2000s when, after years of record trading, North Islander Antony Milton and South Islander Clayton Noone came together.

They carved out a niche with a sort of pastoral psychedelia that brought to mind the forest as much the sea, the acoustic guitar as m…

* Limited edition 180 gram transparent yellow vinyl, gatefold * Beatiful reissue for this masterpiece by Enzo Carella whose original edition usually sells for crazy prices on the second-hand market.

* Edition of 100. Housed in High Quality folded card stock silk screened * The Obelisk I imagined a movie.

They find their way to The Obelisk — a walled asylum built on the edge of the Black Sun. The doctors here are in fact Psychotronic Biologists; the inmates are tunnels to the edge-of-the-cosmos source of witchcraft, despair, and power. T…

Thanks to Uggeri's persistence and Ivo-Watts' ti…

** Limited edition of 800 copies. Comes with an insert and a download code.  **On their third LP for Ultra Eczema, psychedelic blues gloomers Ignatz & De Stervende Honden have driven off the bendy sideroads and onto a straight, if not exactly narrow, path. And there’s new sounds coming out of the stereo: The Les Rallisez Dénudés-type guitar fuzz of previous journeys has been phased out in favour of softer, repetitive VU stumbling and even some Fleetwood Mac-esque romance. But it remains an unmis…

The follow-up to Christoph De Babalon’s ‘Teyas’ collaboration with WIDT picks up in equally bleak and dramatic terrain, following his instincts for a sort of theatrical breakcore style comparable with early Venetian Snares on Zhark.  There’s nowt like a bit of German opera to get the blood up, as with the scene setting chorale that gives way to gnashing breaks in ‘Kein Bild Machen’, while ‘Hung on a String’ comms with pebbledash drums and deathly, keening strings beside the bone-clacking breakbe…

Dna is Rosaceae’s second album for Pudel Produkte after last year’s acclaimed »Efia« for the Hamburg label. The eight tracks further explore the artist’s interest in the interplay of sound and language while also adding skittering rhythms and thumping kickdrums to the mix. »DNA« is a complex but enriching album that as a whole not only reflects ideas of resistance, solidarity and internationalism, but also how they are mediated and their meanings are shaped by different types of mediation.  Whet…

Never officially released, illicit ninth generation cassette copies circulated in Japanese fan circles for many years, attaining a whispered, Holy Grail status amongst initiates to the Rallizes cult. High quality soundboard versions were finally released by the secretive…

«While composing these pieces, I focused on the 20th and 21st-century composition techniques in three main concepts: Serialism, Microtonality, and Noise. You could almost say the Italian Avant-garde of the last century had it all: noise, new music, and the math of Leonardo of Pisa, later known as Fibonacci.In making Composition For Two Oscillators And Two Tape-Recorders I focused on microtonality. The basic concept I like and play with is when tones get close and start to interact with each othe…

Edition of 130. Much slower and much more hypnotic than the usual EVOL style. Around an hour of weird computer raga. Mind-bending experience quite unlike any other

In Micah Pick and Benjamin Mauch words...The title for this album is an actual snippet of conversation that occurred on the first day of 2020. In the midst of recording music together in Richmond, VA, we took some time to get some fresh air, and were enjoying the unseasonable warmth of the day, but also were reminded that although it felt pleasant in the moment, the warming of the planet is a far from pleasant experience. As enthusiasts of outdoor recreation we have enjoyed warm days in the mids…

If you weren’t paying attention, you might think this is a collection of solo ruminations by German pianist Georg Graewe. Listen closer, however, and you’ll discern contributions from harpist Sara Kowal and Viennese turntablist dieb13. Across 15 short improvisations – most of them just two or three minutes long – Graewe’s is the dominant voice. Kowal’s rippling harp tends to blend in with Graewe’s right-hand excursions, adding an extra layer of detail, while dieb13 contributes tactile electronic…

* Edition of 100 * Disrupted Songs is meeting between two musicians with vast experience and different backgrounds, grounded on mutual listening and sensitive balance. Choosing to work on the energy triggered by a clash of imaginative minds who have made research and free improvisation the central point of their action, the duo does not previously set any rule. Simon Balestrazzi (electronic and electroacoustic musician) and Paolo Sanna (percussionist) create their own music in real time, buildin…

From March 8th-14th, 2020, Kuzu was on a seven-concert tour of the United States in the South and Midwest. During that week it became apparent in this country that the world was on the brink of a crisis unknown to humanity for almost exactly a century. In those seven days, the feeling on the street changed from one of anxiety to one of impending doom. By the time the band arrived at Elastic Arts on Thursday, March 12th, their home base in Chicago, it was clear that these would be the last concer…

**200 copies** A Waste of Red Meat responds to the question “what does it mean to be human in the face of technology?” with a brief answer: exactly what it always has meant. To be slightly more specific, what we know as a human exists as an entangled body of tangible and intangible objects, institutions, forces, and histories. And the internet didn’t change that. We have always been these entanglements. The only difference now is that modern technologies have joined in.  To explore this idea, Pe…
