Catalina Matorral
Tip! * Edition of 300 * Catalina Matorral is a comet. Catalina Matorral is a duo; Marion Cousin and Borja Flames make up its double head and four hands. At the beginning of the 2010s, they were called June et Jim — we remember some disturbing EPs they released before joining the label Le Saule (a small, chivalrous table whose holy grail is everything unheard, where folk-singing is avant-garde and avant-garde is synonymous with enchantment). Their first LP, Les Forts, evoked the songwriting of in…
Emak Bakia
* 2nd Edition in Black Vinyl with different artwork and a posterLimited edition of 500* Emak Bakia – a long out of print masterpieces from 1994. Even in the huge Bryn Jones' discography Emak Bakia really stands out of albums from the period due to its rather unique (house-music related) sound and short, by the standards of Bryn Jones, tracks. Like a crossmix between Psychic TV (circa Towards Thee Infinite Beat) and Muslimgauze's trademark percussion and eastern vibes. Re-mastered and with new s…

* 2021 stock * It was in 1973, on the 14th of October, late in the afternoon; on a pretty Sunday under the Big Top in the heart of the “Parc de la Pépinière”, in Nancy; it was the “premiere”, the world first hearing, and it has so far remained the only one commissioned by composer and trumpet player lvan Jullien, for the first international Nancy Jazz Pulsations festival.In order to complete this work of composition and orchestration, Ivan asked the great Eddie Louiss on organ, and chose to do w…

V.I.P. (Vagabonds In Power) Vol. 1 Live In Berlin
* 2021 Repress * Knitting Factory Records reissue Fela Kuti’s ‘Army Arrangement’ on vinyl, previously only available as part of the Box Set series. ‘Army Arrangement’ is about Nigeria’s attempt at ‘democracy’ in 1979 after more than a decade of military rule.Bill Laswell’s mix of Army Arrangement for the Celluloid label was an act of gross cultural-arrogance. With Fela in jail on trumped up currency-smuggling charges when the time came to make the final mix, the label approached Dennis Bovell. B…
Mutant Stomps
These American legends of outsider avant-garde need little introduction. Since becoming core members of the Los Angeles Free Music Society five decades ago, they have retained their focus, determination and unmatched originality, influencing generations and never seizing to advance further avenues of progress. Mutant Stomps is a result of Smegma’s living room recording sessions at their pink house in Portland. All tracks were produced 2012–2013, with one dating back to 1975 for good measure. The…

Pete Swanson & Jed Bindeman’s Freedom To Spend reissue a reel 1984 gem from Robert Cox’s (aka Rimarimba) Unlikely Records, refracting a spectrum of his musical alter egos over 10 tracks of lilting ambient, folk and synth wooze from the top shelf. Newly transferre…
Pa-luu Val-oon
* Edition of 40, cloth cover, hand-made sleeve * Uton's Pa-luu Val-Oon was recorded between July and October 2017 in Turku, Finland. The album was originally released on cassette by American label NullZone in 2018. The edition was 50 copies, and it was sold relatively fast, so it was about time to make another edition, so that this album can be available again. Pa-luu Val-Oon offers a deep transcendental sound, sometimes noisy and intense, even dark, but always keeping on the road into the ligh…
Esoteric Construction
* Edition of 30, cloth cover, hand-made sleeve * The Brain Dwarf is another brain child of Jani Hirvonen, and his neverending experiments in a psychic world. No idea when he could stop this madness and to start to live normally with a real day job. But let's do not worry about that, because as long as this 'experimento psychedelica spiritualito' lasts, we will have a lot of new music to listen - if we want, of course - because there's still no-one to force to listen any of this.
Esoteric Const…
Yksi Kaikessa, Kaikkeus Yhdessä (Tape)
* Edition of 30, cloth cover, hand-made sleeve * Electronic harsh noise with psychedelic flavours, delivered by Jani Hirvonen (Uton) titled Yksi Kaikessa, Kaikkeus Yhdessä (= One in All, the Universe in One). YKSI came back from the infinity, just to bring out some fresh new noises to the people. These sounds came strongly and deeply, later edited and mixed for this powerful album
Apparat
* Edition of 35, hand-made sleeve * Finnish neo-krautrockish psychedelia with electronic elements; techno included! Fresh and colourful mix of cosmic sounds. Saksa is an one-man-band of Lauri Väinölä, and it is the first album of this project (and we surely want to hear more!). *** Music made with drum machine, synthesizer, bass, guitar and miscellaneous recordings.
At Home at Night
* Edition of 100, hand-humbered * At Home is a recording of a live performance at 01, Whitechapel Gallery's sound night. It consists of samples from Ziad Nagy's parents' wedding video.
Ziad Nagy (b.1989) is an interdisciplinary artist. He uses found material in an array of mediums to create interventions that are broadly existential: identity, life, death and time. He currently resides in London.
Oscar's House
* Edition of 50 * Jungle Gym Records presents "Oscar's House", official label debut of legendary Italian experimentalist Ottaven. Here between ferns, sounds from the outside world leak through greenhouse windows, captured mid-air in perfect vignettes of incense smoke and micro-electronics. As we traverse these gardens of the mind, a sense of calm permeates the chaos, each vibration a tiny brushstroke in our new (holistic) vision of reality.
Across well over a decade of sonic, sculptural, fashio…

Four Pieces
** Edition of 100 hand-numbered copies ** "I could count my visits to nightclubs on the fingers of one hand. I therefore have few memories of them, if any. Though I can’t account for the idea, I imagine that Mike’s music could be emanating from one of these clubs where I’ve not been; one that would have been deserted hours before. There, the music would have lingered on in slow-motion, repetitively. And there I would have woken up, crazed and unable to remember any recent events." - Morgan Cuine…
I've Had It up to Hear with Fish & Chips
* Edition of 300, hand-humbered + Obi * I've Had It up to Hear with Fish & Chips by Ben Ellul-Knight and Tom White is a hörspiel about 'care work' of all kinds. In part it is auto-ethnographic, as it draws on Ben's experience working as a play worker, social worker and as a volunteer with refugee and asylum-seeker support services. More personal reflections are mixed with conversations Ben had with support workers, social workers, play workers and mental health nurses to form a script. Different…
Fore Main Mizzen
* Edition of 300, hand-humbered + Obi * Fore Main Mizzen is made entirely from sound recordings taken on visits to Southend-on-Sea and Sheerness that are specifically focused on The SS Richard Montgomery, a ship that sank in the Thames estuary during World War Two. It is lying on a sandbank packed full of the high explosives it was transporting. At low tide its masts are visible from Southend and Sheerness either side of the water. The ship is corroding in the salt water and it is unknown when i…
