An album inspired by childhood culinary experiences, where memories and fiction mix in an explosive cocktail of cinema, rock & roll and psychedelia. The album sounds rough, as if it were played live by a band, even though it is instead a one man session. The skeleton of each track is characterized by the most classic of drums, bass and guitar combos. Behind the pseudonym Louis Fontaine is a Paris-based composer, self didact and multi-instrumentalist from Italy, with a passion for soundtracks and…

One of truly iconic figures in the Japanese alternative rock scene ever! Originally released in 1973 this was Magical Power Maco’s highly  visionary debut album. An eccentric mix of psyche, folk, kraut elements wisely filtered with Oriental sensibility.

Biiiiiiiig Tip! "It has taken me over 50 years to write these words. Since my initial successes in the 1970’s many have urged me to “release” unpublished works from the same period, pieces that featured the VCS3 synths or the amazing Serge (which I regret not having used enough) or pieces featuring soundscapes from my classic environmental composition style. For reasons of persistence and empathy, Lawrence English at Room 40 was the most persuasive; now, nearly 3 years after our agreement, a new…

2024 Repress. Scott 4 is Scott Walker's fifth solo album. It was released in late 1969 under his birth name, Scott Engel, and failed to chart. Reissues have been released under his stage name. It has since received praise as one of Walker's best works. Scott 4 was the first Walker album to consist solely of self-penned songs. The preceding Scott (1967), Scott 2 (1968) and Scott 3 (1969) albums had each featured a mixture of originals and covers, including several translations of Jacques Brel son…

Experience the high strangeness of plant music—plants that “sing.” For years musician Nico Georis has used biofeedback instruments to connect a variety of flora to analog synthesizers, letting their biodata create music that is strange and existentially gorgeous. Nico’s work in plant music happened during a six year span, and was set in motion by a simple desire to find a fresh supply of long-form ambient music for relaxing to at home. After a chance encounter with an obscure technology dating b…

*100 copies limited edition* The album 'City of Tethers' is inspired by a passage from Italo Calvino’s 'Invisible Cities', particularly the description of the city of Ottavia. This city is suspended over an abyss, held up by a net that its inhabitants know will eventually give way. “Suspended over the void, the lives of Ottavia’s inhabitants are less uncertain than in other cities. They know the net will not last,” Calvino writes. The image of Ottavia has become a powerful symbol of fragility an…

Engelchen literally translates as ‘little angels,' and for many in the febrile, dangerous era of the 1930s in Nazi-occupied Europe, as they wrote letters to arrange their paths out of danger as refugees, these were Ida and Louise Cook. Ida and Louise spent much of their early years in Sunderland, and in adulthood lived in a suburb of London with their parents. They were enormous fans of opera, and led relatively quiet and unfussy lives, Ida working for the civil service as a secretary and Louise…

180g 'Cenote Green' vinyl. Limited to 300 copies. Includes stamped and numbered riso print Every time you do acid it’s different from the last, but it’s still got a unique signature to it,” says Michael J York. It’s roughly analogous to the way in which the music of Teleplasmiste – his duo with Mark O Pilkington – can be experienced. Their music is lush and layered like a rainforest floor, a complex lattice of sound that moves in several directions at once. Some of those movements are under the…

*Bilingual Edition (English / German)* Once more, it’s a journey to the fringes. Recalling ­resistant and peculiar aesthetics, wondrous and forgotten outgrowths of music and cultural history of the last ­seventy years – a search for works with inherent value, often contrary to a semblance of seriosity. Among them are Vox Populi!, Takahisa Zeze, Antediluvian, Unica Zürn, Wolfgang Hilbig, Sergio Martino and others.

Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement surprise album just in time before the migration to cooler waters. Grown in the shade of the glacier.

This reissue faithfully replicates the original 1975 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180 gram vinyl. Released in March 1975, initially, the album offers a false sense of mellow security: "Mr Wilson", a tribute to Brian, the leader of Cale's beloved Beach Boys starts the album on a much sweeter note than "Fear Is A Man's B…

The title track with its horns and spoken word is one of Cale's best: after the sweet bubblegum of "China Sea", the album gets increasingly strippe…

Fear marked Cale's return to recording in London after the best part of a decade in America. Signing to Island Records, he made fast friends with two key admirers, Phil Manzanera and Brian Eno, who assisted him in returning his music to the rawer sound of his earlier work, as opposed to the lush textures of his previous studio album, Paris 1919.

*100 copies limited edition* Label head Kobermann returns with a cast of local associates, mostly all new names to us, clustering a varied batch of styles / sounds that skirt round the very edge of the dance floor and bleeds out into the aether.  The title ‘Dunstkreis’ or ‘Haze Circle’ for the non-Deutsch speakers, captures it beautifully, with Voyage Futur’s mellow Rhodes chord opener and the cosmic smog of Blacklight Chameleon fogging out the room.  Sparring partners and regular ANF favourites…

In a season where we all seek comfort, tradition, and a return to a home of sorts, a trio composed of indie music’s foundational members have gifted us A Peace of Us—an album of diverse holiday tunes filtered through their musical imaginations.

Recorded in 1957 when Lee Morgan was only 19, and released on Blue Note in 1958, "Candy" sees the young trumpet genius as leader of a marvelous quartet featuring the infectious rhythm section of Sonny Clark on piano, Doug Watkins on bass and Art Taylor on drums. Being Morgan the only horn he has plenty of space for showing his innate sense of swing and melody. The whole quartet shines throughout a repertoire based entirely on standards including both up tempo numbers and ballads.
