Upcoming releases
Caetano Veloso
*Back in print ! 2026 repress* "The Tropicalia art movement of the late 1960s, with flourishes in visual art, poetry, theatre and music, is one of Brazil's most adored cultural concoctions. It was a movement which began out of necessity, shortly after a repressive military dictatorship seized power after 20 years of peaceful democracy. The term Tropicalia first came from the mind of Brazilian visual artist Helio Oiticica, whose eponymous piece consisted of a sandy maze bordered by tropical Brazi…
Mana
The treasure of Japan’s jazz scene and its most formidable drummer, Takeo Moriyama, drives out a powerful, intense beat. This important work — recorded in April 1994 and the catalyst for Moriyama’s comeback — is being released on vinyl for the first time. Backed by a rock-solid lineup of players — Fumio Itabashi (piano), Toshihiko Inoue (S. Sax & T. Sax), Eiichi Hayashi (A. Sax), and Hiroshi Yoshino (bass) — the recording delivers a ferocious performance that condenses the universe of Moriyama’s…
Yamame
Jazz saxophonist Akira Miyazawa was known for his unparalleled love of fishing, and here he gives a masterful performance that conjures the image of silvery fish scales reflecting light through the cold and clear water of a small mountain stream. “Yamame” (the Japanese name for a kind of freshwater salmon) was recorded in 1962 and was Miyazawa’s first album, but the sharpness and avant-garde modernity of the music creates a completely timeless quality. Miyazawa is one of a group of musicians who…
Dans-sons as we are
With Dans-sons as we are, Audrey Lauro, Christian Pruvost and Peter Orins deliver an album shaped by subtle shifts, restrained tensions and slow transformations of sound matter. A music of listening as much as gesture, where each intervention seems to open a new space rather than occupy the previous one. Brought together through a shared practice of free improvisation, the three musicians develop a collective language that is both dense and constantly in motion. The trio never seeks spectacular …
Black Power
Two real cinematic gemstones one 45. A companion single to the beloved 2x10“ vinyl compilation series The Tape Masters that keeps unearthing rare groove treasures and unreleased recordings from the vaults of film music extraordinaire Peter Thomas. Exclusive on this single and for the first time on vinyl ever is the rare German language version of „Black Power“, sung by a certain Donna Gaines. Later of course known as Donna Summer, the tune is her first recording as a solo artist at just 20 years…
We Now Create - Music For Strings, Winds And Percussion
A pivotal masterpiece by Masahiko Togashi, Masayuki Takayanagi, Mototeru Takagi, and Motoharu Yoshizawa is set to be reissued as the eighth release in the Spin This Now! series
Moondog In Europe
Originally released in 1977, Moondog In Europe was visionary composer Moondog’s first release after moving from NYC to Germany. Regarded as reflecting the historicity of his new environment, the album is more structured and formal than most of his previous releases; however, his layered song-cycles are just as circular and experimental, and still backed by a fair amount of tribal percussion.
“Viking I” opens the album with Moondog’s solo celesta playing and retains the quirk and charm of his pre…
Tsuioku
Kitchen.Label presents Tsuioku, a new full-length album by Tokyo Bedroom Orchestra, the solo project of Japanese composer Hiro Nakamura.
SH:HS
*300 copies limited edition* Bay Area based experimental metal entities Sutekh Hexen and Seattle’s Hissing unveil SH:HS, a long-awaited collaborative release capturing the raw intensity of their joint improvisational project, SH:HS (Sutekh Hissing Arkestra). Originally conceived as a live convergence of both bands’ full lineups, SH:HS documents two volatile and distinct performances recorded in 2017 and 2019. These recordings, born from spontaneous interaction and unrestrained sonic exploration,…
Antimon
*300 copies limited edition* Returning after the introspective descent of The Sarajevo Spiral, Cyclic Law presents Antimon, the latest ritual transmission from the long-standing collective Nam-Khar. Founded in 2009, the project has continuously navigated the liminal intersections between ritual ambient, psychoacoustic exploration and esoteric introspection, employing an arsenal of ethnic instrumentation, analog synthesis and immersive visual elements to construct deeply transformative sonic envi…
The Rest Is My Ghost
Nostalgia is not an ideology, though in this moment, we could be mistaken for thinking it might be just that. Over the past years, the idea of nostalgia has been filtered through various political and technological lenses and has become a tool used for forgetting, rather than remembering. Instead of embracing histories’ complexities and inconsistencies, this version of nostalgia seeks only singular recollection. This contemporary phenomenon of nostalgia has become a methodology at best, and a we…
Floating Frequencies / Intuitive Synthesis I
When Eleh's debut Floating Frequencies/Intuitive Synthesis I was originally released it was praised as a powerful piece of new electronic minimalism. Twenty years later the artist's legacy has grown while Eleh continues to hypnotize new listeners with time stopping music. Critics, fans and neurologists have praised the music of Eleh as aiding attention and focus while seeming to slow time. Eleh's slow change drones are a state of flow hypnotizing listeners into meditative focus. From the origina…
El Sol de los Muertos
*150 copies limitede edition* Originally released on Umor Rex on cassette a year ago, “El Sol de los Muertos” deeply shaped the evolution and vision of Mexican producer Concepción Huerta’s sonic work, becoming a reference point for a kind of experimental sound deeply connected to Latin American critical thought. This is the second album in a series of four special, limited reissues to be released in 2026 to mark the 20th anniversary of Umor Rex.
Crafted entirely through subharmonic structures an…
No Obituary
On No Obituary, Concealed Class - the duo of Charlie Mumma and Matt Purse - reduce harsh sound to its barest, most hostile state: absolute electronics where saturation, feedback and structural collapse are the only remaining facts.
Toinen Luonto
Finnish multi-instrumentalist Simo Hakalisto makes mosaic music of strings, bowls, bells, reeds, wind, water, and obscure electronics, threaded in subtle currents of color and texture. The title of his latest, Toinen Luonto (Finnish for “second nature”), alludes equally to Shakali’s earthen, tactile soundworld and Hakalisto’s deepening comfort with his craft.
The album’s eight songs feel coaxed as much as composed, a web of resonances set in motion and allowed to simmer, build, or billow. Vibrat…
Shadows
Los Angeles musician Cate Kennan’s self-produced second full-length unfolds with the poetry and immateriality of its title: Shadows. 10 vignettes of keys, strings, reverb, and voice, the songs sway and lope between dream and lullaby, rose-colored but remote. The album was inspired by the dislocation Kennan felt upon returning, after several years away, to the rustic neighborhood northwest of L.A. where she’d grown up: “Wandering through a place where my life once existed but where everything had…
Surfaces Of A Broken Marching Band
Originally released in 2008 on Ezekiel Honig’s own Anticipate Recordings, Surfaces of a Broken Marching Band finds the artist refining a compositional language rooted in the methodologies of musique concrete, ambient, and beat research. Working from a palette of environmental recordings, instrumental fragments, and soft electronic treatments, Honig pushes the source material into an array of sympathetic forms ranging from pillow-soft, lowercase ambient to diffuse downtempo and minimal house. For…
When the land is laid bare
Shape of the Moon is the California based duo of Benjamin Burke and Bear Glass that explores existential headspaces beyond mundane frames of thought. Following streams of consciousness that contemplate the stardust that forms us to the very first human sound that reverberated through a cave, Shape of the Moon intertwines language and music into ambient dream-weaving narratives. When the land is laid bare forms a collection of recordings composed of Burke reciting his introspective poems and Glas…
Périodique des Chemins Boueux / Herbes Étincelles
*300 copies limited edition* A few years ago, we released the acclaimed Serrisme CD together with our friends in Hoeilaart. That record brought together sounds, photography and texts by Jan Matthé, Christina Vantzou, Christophe Piette, and Lieven Martens; singing Hoeilaart’s historic glasshouse table grape cultivation, a tradition initiated in 1865. Today, we are excited to present our second collaboration, this time centered around a local nature reserve. This new edition is initiated by compos…
