Leave Another Day
In the ever-expanding universe of ambient and minimal electronic music archaeology, certain discoveries feel more significant than others - those rare moments when a previously overlooked recording emerges to fill gaps we didn't even know existed in our understanding of the genre's evolution. Stroom's reissue of Milan W's Leave Another Day represents precisely such a revelation, offering contemporary listeners access to a work that exemplifies the sophisticated minimalism that flourished in expe…
Unfurling
*200 copies limited edition* Pefkin is the alter ego of Gayle Brogan, a Sheffield-based creator of slowly-unfolding, ritualistic hymnals that draw deeply on landscape, nature, and the histories that bind them. Her sound is built from a mesmerising layering of voice, viola, analogue synths, harmonium, melodica, zither and field recordings manipulated with a kaleidoscopic array of effects. Hereby she blurs the boundaries between folk, psychedelia, and experimental music. Over the years her work ha…
Path of Enlightenment
Nat Birchall, saxophonist and composer, one of the most authentic voices in contemporary spiritual jazz, presents Path of Enlightenment, a sonic journey through rarely explored scales and modes, from Ethiopia to Byzantium, from ancient Egypt to South Africa.
For this new recording, Birchall deliberately chose the quartet format - tenor sax, piano, double bass and drums - seeking a cohesion and intimacy that allows the music to breathe and tell its story. Joining him are his trusted collaborators…
Reflections Vol. 3: Water Poems
On Reflections Vol. 3: Water Poems, Félicia Atkinson and Christina Vantzou channel their friendship and atmospheric artistry into ceremonial focus. Spoken-word environments and orchestral imagination flow like tributaries into a unified stream, resulting in a collection of dreamlike songs and soundscapes anchored in sea, sky and stone. Through electro-acoustic instrumentation, voice, and environmental sound, Water Poems invites listeners into a subconscious space somewhere between everyday intim…
Vesper Sparrow
The work of JJJJJerome Ellis lives comfortably in the gaps between silence and possibility. The Black disabled Grenadian-Jamaican-American artist creates atmospheric soundscapes with saxophone, organ, hammered dulcimer, electronics, and their voice. Improvisation is at the core of their artistry – often chipping away at large slabs of recordings to reveal the piece like a marble sculptor. It’s an expansive and interdisciplinary practice that allows JJJJJerome to adapt to any medium or form, incl…
Ipnagogico
Al Doum & The Faryds have always been an enchanting organism, a timeless land of wisdom, humility, brotherhood and love. Their blend of spiritual jazz, psychedelia and Afro-Latin rock holds a magical balance, turning their music into a tropical celebration filled with harmony and deep vibrations. A volcano of emotion, where the poetry of rising and falling voices becomes a gospel and soul illumination, echoing from faraway places. The expanded horn section — alto and tenor sax, soprano sax and b…
At Source
Caterina Barbieri & Bendik Giske's At Source resounds music as wellspring, that which is essential and unknowable, and yet utterly primary. It finds two acclaimed composer-musicians building a world together in self-contained collaboration between analogue synthesis and an extended approach to the saxophone that conjures its own universe of sound. It is at once intimate and cosmic, drawing on the challenges and possibilities of their artistic exchange, tearing down technique to access all the ex…

Sing Me Now Asleep
Bill Frisell, Kenny Wollesen, and Carol Emanuel are The Gnostic Trio and their unique blend of minimalism, early music, and jazz has resulted in some of the loveliest music Zorn has ever created. “Sing Me Now Asleep” is their first CD in over five years and not surprisingly it explores some unexpected new directions—notably two ambient-influenced pieces in the spirit of Zorn’s Absinthe and Redbird, and a dramatic long form composition in the style of his cinematic file card works. Enhanced by th…
Double String Trios
John McGuire’s Double String Trios brings together three substantial works for paired string trios composed between 2012 and 2021 and conducted by Axel Lindner. The project originated when Walter Zimmermann invited Bernd Härpfer of Initiative Musik und Informatik Köln – GIMIK e.V. to arrange a concert premiere marking McGuire’s 80th birthday.
McGuire’s musical language was forged in the electronic studios of postwar Cologne, shaped by studies with Karlheinz Stockhausen and Krzysztof Penderecki, …
Music For A Revolution Vol. 2 - Guinea's Syliphone Recording Label (1968-1980)
On October 2 1958, after over 60 years of colonial rule, Guineans voted overwhelmingly for their independence, and Guinea was declared a Republic with Sékou Touré as President. Guinea was the first of West Africa’s Francophone colonies to gain independence. To free Guinea from its colonial legacy, president Touré sought to restore dignity to his nation and give cause for Guineans to take pride in their culture, history and newfound freedom. To achieve this, he instructed his government to implem…

Blackpool Cool
Head’s Blackpool Cool was self-released in 1977 on the band’s own Head Records, marking the Scottish group’s third and final album. Long prized by collectors, it stands as a distinctive entry in UK jazz-rock and fusion, driven by an inventive interplay of trumpet and keyboards and a sharp, forward-moving sense of rhythm.
Influenced by the exploratory edge of groups such as Nucleus, the album showcases the band’s creative confidence and the multi-instrumental talents of John Davies. The sound is …

The Inflated Tear
Last pressed on vinyl in 2005, The Inflated Tear is a studio album by Roland Kirk, released on Atlantic in 1968. Roland Kirk, was a hugely influential, blind jazz multi-instrumentalist who played tenor saxophone, flute, and many other instruments. He was renowned for his onstage vitality, during which virtuoso improvisation was accompanied by comic banter, political ranting, and the ability to play several instruments simultaneously. Pitchfork placed The Inflated Tear at number 170 on its list o…
