300 copies. A Typical Night in the Pit is a collection of new music by Los Angeles' Nick Malkin. It is an album that finds the artist absorbed in the density and chaos of the urban complex. It is unquestionably an "LA album", but not the LA of hi-fi listening bars and twinkling, Instagram-ready new age. Rather, Malkin navigates something more akin to the LA found in the films of Robert Altman or Alan Rudolph -- overheated, tense, hazy, frayed -- with blue-lit, nocturnal compositions that at time…
300 copies limited edition With Contemplative Figuration, Broshuda pushes his amorphous, impossible-to-pin-down music in exciting new directions. Stitched together in various European cities over the last few years, it is the artist's most dynamic and ambitious release thus far, drawing equally from musique concrete, beat research, ambient, tape collage, and spoken word. Episodic in nature, the collection functions well as a sort of impressionistic travelogue, with romantic, hazy atmospheres coa…
*300 copies limited edition* Motoko & Myers is the collaborative project of Bay Area-based duo Wonja Fairbrother and Daniel Letson. Colocate follows their 2018 debut release on the Open Hands Real Flames imprint (Bass Clef), further developing their distinctive style which combines melodic, pop song structures with live improvisation and odd or no-meter approaches to rhythm and timing. It is a collection of bright, addictive listening, full of tracks that manage to feel at once hooky and aleator…
*300 copies limited edition* New solo album by Eric Lanham (aka Carl Calm) of the Caboladies. Over the past fifteen years, Florida-based multi-instrumentalist Eric Lanham has quietly generated a diverse and remarkable body of work both as a solo artist and in group settings. From the disorienting drone/collage ecstasies of Caboladies, his trio with Christopher Bush (Flanger Magazine) and Ben Zoeller, to wildly divergent solo flights under both his own name and as Carl Calm, Lanham's carefully me…
*300 copies limited edition* Iggy goes West! Soda Gong welcomes back Kansas City-based musician Iggy Romeu with his latest collection as Mister Water Wet. Cold Clay from the Middle West is a (characteristically) sharp left turn from his last two records, with Romeu offering up a surprising and addictive mélange of crackpot Americana and smoky noir beat science. "Cold Clay Suite" opens the record, a five-part ride into the sunset that features Cooder-esque guitars, cat-gut fiddle, horse-hoof perc…
Lost Bird is a book about abandonment. Photos thrown in the trash, postcards from baskets at flea markets, pages from books, mostly encyclopedias piled up in antique shops and texts from torn pages. It is a collection of images, drawings and writings, which once gave us light, if only for a while, and then plunged into darkness. It is a mutual relationship that changes at the same time, an association of the old to the new that speaks of injustice and oppression, of lost beauty, our lost nature.…
Previously unreleased version of Public Image Limited’s debut album that was re-recorded and remixed for release (with alternate artwork from original release) in 1979 via Warners in the US and Canada, but ultimately shelved. This is the holy grail for fans of John Lydon’s post-Sex Pistols band. A stunning debut and landmark release for the post-punk movement of the late ‘70s. PiL’s debut single ‘Public Image’, we are set to reissue the pioneering group’s debut album First Issue, available for t…

2025 stock Dr. John has proven to be one of music’s foremost generalists, a primary-care cat whose practice extends back some 60 years. His expertise encompasses rock ’n’ roll, swamp pop, New Orleans, R&B, funk, jazz, and the Great American Songbook—and he’s made worthy contributions to recordings by the Stones, B.B. King, Van Morrison, Frank Zappa, Buddy Guy & Junior Wells, Buffalo Springfield, Gregg Allman, and others. The awards (six Grammys and counting) and accolades long ago validated the …

2025 stock This compilation documents part of an exciting, and somewhat neglected period in Australasian jazz. Recorded in Sydney (1966), we can hear Bernie McGann was already one of the great Australian jazz stylists. But at the time the only publicly available recording he made was two tracks on the JAZZ AUSTRALIA compilation (1967) (CBS BP 233450). All five tunes are also early recordings of two New Zealand greats - Kim Paterson and Andy Brown, who were living in Sydney at the time. Two years…
Dated 1968 this Rogerio Duprat album still sounds as a wild mix of pop-rock elements and various forms of Brazilian music. Infectious Latin rhythms, astonishing covers of US and UK hits of the era, easy listening atmospheres and a variety of odd arrangements. A must for all Tropicalists out there!
"Mondo imagined a future more far-out than any of its time. In its pages, readers glimpsed a hyper-accelerationist consumer dream of cyberspace made all more frighteningly real – then and now – by its prophetic synthesis of capitalism, psychedelic culture, and the computer age." - Dr. J. Christian Greer
Mondo Vision is an exploration of the visual culture of Mondo 2000, the iconic cyberculture magazine published 1984-1998, edited by R.U. Sirius and Queen Mu. Under the art direction of Bart Nagel…
Music-lovers of all lands, rejoice! Here you have the re-release of the fourth album of the Intercommunal Free Dance Music Orchestra recorded with the Guinean saxophonist Jo Maka. The title says it all: Vol.4: Jo Maka. But before that, a bit of history: The Intercommunal Free Dance Music Orchestra was created in 1971 by an "old hand" of French free jazz, François Tusques. "Free Jazz" was also the name of the recording made by the pianist and other like-minded Frenchmen (Michel Portal, François J…

Our third mixtape in partnership with Philadelphia punk archivists World Gone Mad, this time specifically focused on the late 1980s/early 90s punk & hardcore scene in Medellín, Colombia.
"There are moments in which art perfectly reflects the surroundings in which it was born. This is the case of the entire hc/punk/metal scene in late 80s/early 90s Medellín. It was, at the time, the most violent city in the world because of drug cartels, corruption, oppression & poverty. This violence was the rea…
