gASTRO
From an idea of Manuel Cascone and Francesco Petricca. A travel through the human body into the mysteries of the digestive system. Everyday inside our organism the food is subject to a very long travel, arduous, a chain of transformations which provides us with nutrition and in many cases we get benefits from. The thirthy minutes of "gASTRO" are the input for an estrangement effect into the surreal journey of the food from the moment we ingest it until its last passage. The adventures of the che…
Riflesso
Filtro was born in 2016 from the meeting of Angelo Bignamini and Luca De Biasi already active in the Italian psychedelic and noise scene (The Great Sanuites, Sukkia, Satantango, etc). In the grammatic of Riflesso magnetic tapes articulate with modular synthesizers and improvisation that the duo manipulates till they get a canvas of twines and multicolour stitches curves and corners sound scraps calibrated and polished get born again and find new context in the shape of patterns repeated sequence…

An Introduction to Ored Recordings, Pt. 2: Dance
The tireless Death Is Not The End returns with the second of two primers of Caucasus folk in conjunction with the Ored Recordings label.

This second volume profiles an intrinsic social function of the Circassian people; the urge to dance. Some ten tracks deep, it real…
Two Points On The Angle
"Experimental provocateur Graham Lambkin isn’t resting on his laurels after earning a five-star TMT review of his latest solo album, Community.

Cinema Music & Wallpaper Sounds
Lost for years, and then found. A recently re-discovered seminal 1976 synth/electronic work from the Buzzcocks vocalist and synthpop pioneer. From the period before “Homosapien” this album is at the root of Pete Shelley’s journey toward his later solo electronic works. Unearthed by writer, critic and cultural commentator Jon Savage, the album is disseminated in the release sleeve notes. As he suggests “It contains nods towards muzak, the modulations of electronic disco (“I Feel Love”)”. T…
Inventions For Radio: The Dreams
One of the coolest compositions we've ever heard from Delia Derbyshire – a special set of electronic compositions based around dreams, with lots of tape work and electronics from Delia, plus loads of eerie recitations as well! Each track features someone describing a dream – at a level that would be spooky enough on its own – but then the voice is often manipulated slightly, sometimes repeated – and mixed with the kind of dark, moody elements we love in some of Derbyshire's more instrume…
Questa specie d'amore
**special price, limited offer from the label**“Questa specie d’amore” is a 1972 movie by Alberto Bevilacqua, here in a dual role of writer and director, since the film is taken from his book by the same name. Two years after “La Califfa”, Bevilacqua confirmed Ugo Tognazzi as the main actor and Ennio Morricone as soundtrack composer. While the first one confirms himself as an exceptional protagonist, in the dual role of father and son, the second is not far behind, as the author of a beaut…
Anal Perversions
Edition of 60 hand-numbered copies for this early industrial artefact, originally produced on tape in 1984 "Since 1982, the Mauthausen Orchestra, mastermined by Pierpaolo Zoppo, have developed their brutal tendencies, reaching, by the last productions, the highest standards of sonic power. With "Necrofellatio" begins the flirtation with the "Aquilifer Sodality"; sexual impetus, and the M.O. support the sound stimulation offered by The Sodality with their mastery of elating power electronics. The…

Sebastiano Carghini is an italian musician. His research include use the modular synth and recordings physical objects. His complex sound constructions is made of apparently random tweaks, which took high-pitch morse flutters down to a deep static hum, or aero-drone to surging thrum, constructed a subtly balanced and finely nuanced web of sound that was utterly enthralling, drawing musical order from potential chaos. Don't miss it
Moon On The Water
Every record collector knows that discovery is endless. The history of recorded sound is loaded with gems, but they’re increasingly hard to find. While everyone has their holy grails, the rarest of the rare are the completely unknown - the coveted gold - masterpieces waiting in the shadows, which that no one has found. The ensemble Moon On The Water’s self titled debut is one such case - a work of brilliance, which until now has largely remained hidden from view. Issued in 1985, complete with a …

Part One
Formed in Los Angeles in 1965, The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band were considered by many to be the West Coast's answer to the Velvet Underground. The group created California psych/rock music that was both fragile and dreamy. Part One was originally released in 1967 on Frank Sinatra's Reprise Records. Though they didn't achieve the fame or notoriety of other bands from the area, they have nonetheless achieved a cult status among collectors and people curious about a rich, albeit sho…
Domestic Exile Collected Works 82-86
2017 repress, originally released in 2015. Ecstatic resuscitate Daniele Ciullini's "sonic polaroids" of odder '80s pop, drone, and drum machine workouts in the detached dimensions of Domestic Exile: Collected Works 82-86.

Nervous Hydra / All This Has Passed Forever
Stunning split release between Maurizio Bianchi, godfather of the Italian industrial noise scene, and Abul Mogard, the much loved and hyperstitious synthesist, conjuring a spellbinding testament to the transcendent and transportive energies of electronic music. Although appearing to starkly contrast on the surface, both artist’s work patently shares a lust for the suggestive abstraction of raw current and its pareidolia-like capacity to generate rich and uncanny emotional responses from the end…
Art Record Covers
Since the dawn of modernism, visual and music production have had a particularly intimate relationship. From Luigi Russolo’s 1913 Futurist manifesto L’Arte dei Rumori (The Art of Noise) to Marcel Duchamp’s 1925 double-sided discs Rotoreliefs, the 20th century saw ever more fertile exchange between sounds and shapes, marks and melodies, and different fields of composition and performance. In Francesco Spampinato’s unique anthology of artists’ record covers, we discover the rhythm of this particul…
Everywhere At The End Of Time
2017 repress. Everywhere At The End of Time is the first in a series of six albums by The Caretaker, aka James Leyland Kirby, slowly cataloguing the stages of early onset dementia. Each album will reveal new points of progression, loss and disintegration, progressively falling further and further towards the abyss of complete memory loss and nothingness. Viewing dementia as a series of stages can be a useful way to understand the illness, but it is important to realize that this only provi…
