** First pressing glass mastered edition of 500 copies. Cinderblocks, safety glass, enfolded glass etched with text ** “Often, when finding titles for improvised music I go through poetry that I feel might have some relation to the way the music turned out. I look for two or three word phrases that capture something related. I think of this as “consulting a professional” when it comes to titles. When it came time for these titles, I found myself reaching for Fred Moten’s fantastic book “The Feel…

** First pressing of 500 copies with artwork by the one and only Tiny Little Hammers ** "Underground music is filled with all kinds of characters, personalities, and peculiarities. Rare are the musical/artistic soul mates who have forged life, as well as creative, partnerships.  Foundationally, the work of couples like Alice and John Coltrane or La Monte Young and Marian Zazeela set standards of artists who share a complete aesthetic worldview, in which the pair complement and lift each other to…

** 2021 Stock. Comes in a six panel case with 16 page booklet, designed by Sam Songailo ** One-composer records have somehow slipped out of fashion, but the chance to delve more deeply into the psyche of a single composer is a special indulgence for both performer and listener.

The piece’s honest conviction, simplicity and deep expre…

* Coloured Vinyl 180gr HQ. In process of stocking* Second studio album by the infuential music band Tangerine Dream, Alpha Centauri' is the milestone of the psychedelic era. Originally recorded in 1970 at Stommeln's sound-lab Studio Dierks and released via the Ralf-Ulrich Kaiser's Ohr imprint, this album is an extraordinary trip into a dark sonic universe, where the overall quality has little in common with the luminescence recalled by its title. Organ acoustics and fute lean on mesmerising text…

Originally released as a 12" in 1988 fir Minotauro, "Ash" acted as a watershed between the transitional record "Opera 4th" (Minotauro, 1987) and "Life and Death". In a few words, in this mini-Lp markedly rock stylistic elements coexist with other more experimental ones, joined together without smearing, making the record unitary and not dispersive. "Eternal Flame" and "Electroshock" are exemplary of Paul Chain's idea of speed-metal. The psychotic "Electroshock", in particular, is quite original …

The third entry in the 12"/MLP subs series. In early September 2011, Theme, the Poland/UK-based group centered around Lumberton Trading Company's very own Richard Johnson (ex-Splintered, Husk, etc.) and Stuart Carter (ex-Splintered, The Fields Of Hay, ex-Heroin, etc.), went into a Budapest studio with their good friends Zsolt Sörés and Jean-Hervé Péron (aka Art-Errorist of influential German group, Faust) for two whole days.

LP version. "Every now and then I meet a bull who announces itself with its horns ('Le Corna'). But it doesn't scare me, it moves and dances, it runs away. Archery ('Tiro') is its favourite ('Rito') hobby, and my bull likes tea. It always eats round roti ('Chapati') together with its bull ('tori') friends who all have bristling hair like hedgehogs and succulent plants. My bull keeps different things in the vegetable gardens ('Orti') and in the wineskins ('Otri'). Then there is the tail ('la coda…

ɅV (phonetic transcription for ‹of› or ‹off›) is a vinyl record consisting of spoken words, which can be used as a DJ-tool to compose artifical dialogues. It makes use of 32 monosyllabic words on each side recited by two synthetic voices which were collected from the website of the New York Times and the Politically Incorrect subforum of the messageboard 4chan, thus mirroring two opposing extremes of current online debate in the materiality of an LP. Mixing two copies of this record in a DJ-setu…

Loscil's dreamy 2011 ambient classic "coast/ range/ arc/" gets the deluxe reissue treatment with a fresh remaster and an additional track.  Originally released in 2011, "coast/ range/ arc/" is a dense, evocative ambient record - the kind of album that set the stage for plenty of music that now clogs up playlists, but has rarely been done more effectively. Stylistic touchstones might be Thomas Köner, Angelo Badalamenti and Stars of the Lid (to a degree), but Scott Morgan takes things to shadowier…

Part of Andy Warhol’s Factory for a year in the mid-‘60s, she is widely believed to have inspired The Velvet Underground’s “Femme Fatale” as well as Bob Dylan’s “Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat” and “Just Like A Woman”. * 1973’s Ciao! Manhattan, the model and actor’s final film, gave some indication of why she inspired such devotion. Written and direc…

With each successive release, the self-sustaining universe that is Sarah Lipstate’s output as Noveller pushes outward. Her instrumental sound—built from guitar loops run through pedals—has evolved well past its drone-anchored early incarnation. That relied on layers of distortion to create meditative spaces that enveloped the listener; more recently, synths and percussion have entered her sprawling compositions. A Pink Sunset for No One is ruled by a newly epic sense of scale and narrative. For …
