Unaffected Mixes plus
* 2LP set, imported from Japan. Limited edition pressing of 400 from* R.N.A. Organism landed themselves a place on the legendary Vanity Records roster after sending label head Agi Yuzuru a cassette by air mail in order to fool him into thinking they were from overseas. The ploy worked, and the group soon entered the studio for free-form sessions of minimalistic, rhythmic excursions played on an array of synths, drum machines and other gadgets. Working with producer Kaoru Sato (later of EP-4), RN…
Matching Mole
Recorded in an abandoned CBS studio in the cold winter of 1972, this is the historical first album of Matching Mole, Robert Wyatt's immediate post Soft Machine grouping featuring himself on drums and vocals and three of the most creative musicians from the legendary Canterbury scene. Guitarist Phil Miller (Hatfield & the North, National Health), keyboardist Dave Sinclair (Caravan) and bassist Bill McCormick (Quiet Sun). Matching Mole is the quintessence of Canterbury sound. A visionary mixture o…
Reflections on the Future
An expanded 2xCD of the legendary, sole album by a heavy psychedelic krautrock group Twenty Sixty Six And Then, originally released by United Artists in 1972. The first platter is an exact repress of the original album, while CD #2 contains all other (previously unissued) material that the group recorded in the early '70s.
1973 -1976 -1979 (Musiq Musik + Parallèles + Catalogue) 3LP Box, coloured vinyls
Outstanding. **Jac Berrocal’s first remarkable albums in fully remastered form on 200g vinyl, contained within a beautiful box and individual metallic covers and 24 page, deluxe book** Every serious fan of avant-garde jazz knows that, for a great many years, France was a central axis for the global scene - a safe haven and source of support for countless visionary voices from the United States and other points abroad. Until recently, what has remained relatively under observed, is the country’s …
Rrose Sélavy
**One-time vinyl edition of 500 copies with the original inner notes by Daniel Charles and additional notes from Julio Pérez and Eloy Palazón.** Much needed reissue of this enigmatic work of piano minimalism, originally released by Cramps Records in 1977 and originally released by Cramps Records for the hugely influential Nova Musicha series (also including Robert Ashley, Alvin Lucier, Cornelius Cardew, John Cage and many more) and obviously dedicated to Marcel Duchamp (under the guise of Rrose …
Lady June's Linguistic Leprosy

The legendary debut album by Canterbury scene pivotal figure, performance poet, painter, and experimental musician June Campbell Cramer, better known as Lady June.

Originally released by Virgin's budget imprint Caroline (home also of art…
Moving Gelatine Plates
Debut album (1971) of this french progressive jazz/rock fusion band from the early 1970's included in the infamous NWW list. "On their impressive 1971 debut, France's Moving Gelatine Plates create a unique brand of jazz-influenced progressive rock. Parts of the album are reminiscent of the music recorded by groups from England's Canterbury scene (e.g., Soft Machine), but the Moving Gelatine Plates' driving rhythms and catchy thematic shifts set the band apart from their English counterparts. Dru…
Tago Mago
Black vinyl edition You couldn't do much better than beginning with 1971's Tago Mago, freshly reissued in vinyl format. It's a colossus of an album, the product of a band that was thinking huge, pushing itself to its limits, and devoted to breaking open its own understanding of what rock music could be. The core of Can was four German musicians from wildly different backgrounds-- when they initially came together in 1968, two of them had studied with composer Karlheinz Stockhausen, one had play…
Electronic Mind Waves
"Out of the mysterious mind of Andrea Centazzo came Elektriktus. Originally released on the PDU label in 1976, the LP Electronic Mind Waves offers a collection of eight synth-fueled songs that sound very close to what kraut/cosmische heads were doing at the time, think of Conrad Schnitzler, Deuter or Cosmic Jokers, and also other European experimentalists like Richard Pinhas' Heldon, Spacecraft, Didier Bocquet, Seesselberg, F.G. Experimental Laboratory, Roberto Cacciapaglia or Hydrus. Along…
Live At Lace
This version will be almost a complete replica of the Japanese version of the original album." Paste-on cover with black and white inserts of numerous performance flyers and photographs. Crucial early-noise document from the Los Angeles Free Music Society heyday. "AIRWAY is a brainchild of Joe Potts. Here are COMMANDMENTS OF AIRWAY: AIRWAY is a hole through which our conscious passes. Sound of AIRWAY is not an object. Sound of AIRWAY has no fixed location. Sound of AIRWAY has no fixed loc…
Shh!
It's taken a long fucking time, and finally, a fully legit LP - only reissue of this amazing Helsinki monsterpiece from 1970. shh ! is highly collectable in it's original form on the band's own O Records imprint (home of 3rd erection, samsa trio, one point music, etc). In a non - dream state, I've seen 2 copies and both were in a condition slightly more well kempt than hammered ++. shh ! is primarily a document of Pekka Airaksinen's experimental compositions, consisting of primitive samples, gui…
Rementact
long out of print album by french sound/performance artist, tape manipulator and composer manon anne gillis (or sometimes simply anne gillis) heyday might've been the mid to late '80s, but her recordings stand as important contributions to experimental and noise music. Rementact manages to capture quite a few sides of manon anne gillis. seemingly segmented into quarters by four distinct musical themes (atleast that's how the album revealed itself to me). the first part incorporates water-based s…
Von Goldabfischer
CD reissue, easily one of the top 5 rarest titles on the NWW list (one just went for over $900 on ebay several months back!), this late 60's debut outing from Swiss madman Anton Bruhin (poles apart from his later tape cut up work) is trafficing in a species of demented fragmentary dadaist songform disembowelment of a very post-Zappa/Beefheart meets Futura Records-sounding sort, though this actually precedes anything from the Futura camp. Nevertheless, it's anarchic spirit is clearly informed by …
Oizzo No
Long time deleted, this is the original Limited edition of 700 copies. The music on this cd represents the early works of irish composer Roger Doyle - pieces composed in the late 1960s to mid 70s. it includes his extremely rare self-released 1975 debut lp oizzo no and his second lp thalia from 1978, originally released on cbs classics with two tracks (10 & 11) originally released in 1978 on the LP "Thalia". A home-recorded industrialism and tape experimentalism masterpiece, Oizzo No, originally …
