Reissues

'Nocturnes' from Germany's great electronic miniaturist. Tietchens assembles short, enigmatic synthetic pieces, cool, disciplined and quietly unsettling, poised between pop structure and pure abstraction. Essential early Tietchens.

Tietchens at his most seductive. 'The fifth heaven' pairs the Hamburg sound-chemist's rigorous electronics with an unexpected melodic sweetness. Shifting synthetic textures, precise and strange: abstract music that still charms.

Home-taped minimal synthesis from the German cassette underground, 1980-86. Alu's austere drum machines, cheap keyboards and deadpan Deutsch build a private, hypnotic little world. A lost minimal-wave gem exhumed by Bureau B.

Von Deyen's debut, an interstellar synthesizer suite of vast pads and slow sequencer pulse. Sternzeit (star time) is pure late-'70s German cosmic music, equal parts Tangerine Dream grandeur and lonely, meditative space.

More deep-space synthesis from the reclusive cosmic voyager. Nordborg unfolds in patient, glacial layers of Moog and Mellotron: Berlin-school drift at its most oceanic and serene. A cult private-press artefact returned to CD.

Vast, weightless synthesizer vistas from the German cosmic underground. Von Deyen layers Moog and Mellotron into slow-drifting cloudscapes, poised between Berlin-school sequencing and pure ambience. A private-press reverie, on CD for the first time.

Ten tones for ten bodies in orbit. Nothing else. The Solar System is one of Ryoji Ikeda's most reduced objects, a 12" containing ten locked grooves, each cut with a single sine wave at a frequency assigned to a different planet. Where Code Name: A-Z took language as its source, this record takes celestial mechanics, and pares it down to the purest signal available. It was produced by The Vinyl Factory in 2015 for the UK premiere of supersymmetry, Ikeda's large-scale installation shown at the Bre…

**Clear vinyl, 26 locked grooves, edition of 500 - 2026 repress** An alphabet reduced to its bones. Twenty-six words, twenty-six frequencies, twenty-six grooves that never end. Code Name: A-Z is Ryoji Ikeda at his most austere and his most physical, a record that treats the vinyl disc not as a carrier of music but as an instrument in its own right. Ikeda's position in the landscape of experimental sound needs little rehearsal. A founding presence in the Kyoto collective Dumb Type and one of the …

After Curiosum (BB 038CD/LP, 1981), the last Cluster album to be released on Sky, Roedelius and Moebius turned their attention to solo work. It was not until the early 1990s that Cluster returned to the electronic music stage with Apropos Cluster (BB 171CD/LP, 1990) and One Hour (BB 172CD/LP, 1994). The duo also took to the road for live shows in Germany and Europe, followed by tours across the USA and Japan. Some of these concerts were recorded in digital quality and offer compelling evidence o…

Dark Entries release Terminal Fascination, a retrospective release of the music of Camille O’Grady, subversive artist, leather witch, punk poet, and gender saboteur. O’Grady cut her teeth in New York’s burgeoning punk scene at clubs like CBGB’s, where her band Leather Secrets would share the stage with acts like Television. She became one of the few women to be welcomed into the Mineshaft, Wally Wallace’s legendary Manhattan gay BDSM club. Towards the end of the 70s, she would trek west to San F…

On Live at the KiMo Theater Albuquerque 1979, Cecil Taylor leads a newly reconfigured Unit through a rare Western American performance of volatile grace and immense detail. Piano, alto saxophone, violin, bass, cello and multi-instrumental percussion form a shifting, luminous organism - less gladiatorial than Taylor’s 1978 bands, but no less radical in its freedom.

"Röntgen" is Ø's (aka Mika Vainio) subliminal, minimal techno classic, and was featured on the first Sähkö Recordings release in 1993. Spatial, silvery-sharp, and reduced yet frenetic, it's a blueprint of drum machine and synth work that helped redefine an era in techno. This special-edition 12" also features a full-side cut of a previously unreleased Ø track from 1995. The untitled B-side carries the same approach as the title track—minimal TR-808 and acidic synthesis—but in contrast to the har…

In Energy Center, Ed Hazell tells the essential story of Studio Rivbea, the Lower Manhattan loft where Sam Rivers and Bea Rivers made radical music possible on its own terms. Drawing on new research, photographs, posters and an unrivalled sessionography, the book restores 24 Bond Street as a home, school, rehearsal room and self-determined cultural engine.

Long before streaming services, podcasts, or even the compact disc, there was Tellus - a radically ambitious publication that imagined recorded sound as an exhibition space. Founded in 1983 in downtown New York, Tellus transformed the humble audio cassette into a magazine, commissioning and publishing new works by musicians, composers, visual artists, poets, writers, choreographers, and performers who were reshaping the boundaries of contemporary art. Each issue invited listeners into a world wh…

*200 copies limitede edition* Roughly two years after the release of their initial statement of intent, debut single “Toutpartout PT2” with its hypnotic ripples, Andi Haberl and Florian Zimmer aka Bella Wakame have successfully channeled the magic of a 2024 live recording (captured at Berlin’s Donau115 & Silent Green) into their first proper studio offering. You can hear inspirations ranging from Bitchin Bajas, Jeremiah Chiu to Groupshow (Jelinek, Leichtmann, Pekler), the hypnotic, intricate bat…

Rather than offering easy catharsis, IRM confronts the listener with an uncompromising sonic language—raw, abrasive, and dee…

The triple CD comes in an 8-panel digisleeve with 28 page booklet detailing the complete history of the band and illustrated with photos and images mainly from Paul Dunmall’s archives.

When Danny started Whatever, a trio with reed player Tony Roberts and guitarist Bernie Holland, and in…

A dream come true for A Colourful Storm to be releasing an early gem by Tenniscoats, a duo whose DIY spirit, boundless creativity and lust for life and collaboration has left an indelible mark. From self-releasing albums and tapes on their own Majikick imprint to meeting kindred spirits The Pastels, Bill Wells and Jad Fair in between outings for Morr Music, Chapter and Häpna, to name but a few, Tenniscoats have embodied an understated determination and optimism for over two decades. "A foghorn m…

Always spontaneous, never rehearsed. Music in and of this world, seemingly teeteri…

Furthermore, from prefectures and coral shores emerges a handmade zine—Red Factory Decapitation—that explores industrialised dishonour, the counter-system of ancient rituals, and the notion of an honourable death as a means of securing passage into the afterlife. It portrays an estranged warrior class whose melancholy is gradually eclipsed by ruinous hysteria, culminating in the amplification of maniacal laughter.

Tip! At the time, Yuji Takahashi was known internationally primarily as a pianist. Yet the decade from Phonogène (1962) to Tadori (1972) reveals another essential side of his work: an exploration of electronic sound, mathematics, and computers in composition, and of their changing relationship with human performance. One of the starting points was his encounter with Iannis Xenakis. Takahashi studied probability theory and set theory, and in Phonogène developed his own probabilistic approach to o…

Visionaries in Mexico have sought ways to look beyond the stars for millennia. Ancient civilizations like the Maya and Aztecs designed their cities as gigantic star maps, orienting their buildings to mark equinoxes, solstices, and zenith passages. This inquisitive form of meaning-making through art has long been endangered—first by Spanish colonizers; then by the Mexican government’s throttling of artistic expression in the late 20th century; and now by the violent anti-Mexican sentiments of the…

Fueled by King Crimson and Yes, but also by the improvis…

The mighty Argentine progsters Bubu make a triumphant comeback with their 3rd and final album El Ultimo Cortejo. Composed in part based on notes discovered by the band’s mastermind Daniel Andreoli in his parents’ basement, dating back to the Anabelas (1976) period, and in part on newly infused sonic elements by the evergreen lineup that boasts some of the finest upcoming musicians from Buenos Aires’ rampant neoprog scene, El Ultimo Cortejo carves new pathways in Bubu’s evolutionary trajectory by…

Prurient's Pleasure Ground, recorded on 14 February 2006 and first sold as a double cassette at No Fun Fest in New York: Dominick Fernow's power electronics meeting synths, doom and black metal.

Recorded across a single sweltering Paris summer in June 1978, Adonia - the lone album credited to Ose - captures a rare alignment of intellect, imagination, and emerging technology. For decades it has lingered as one of the great half-secrets of French electronic music's most fertile decade, traded between collectors who understood exactly what they were holding. At just twenty-six, Hervé Picart was living three parallel lives: scholar of rhetoric and ancient languages, journalist for the Frenc…

Conal arrived in 1981 on the Norwegian independent Uniton Records, in a run of 4,000 copies, at a point when Conrad Schnitzler was long past being a German secret. The founding member of Kluster and a brief early presence in Tangerine Dream had spent the 1970s building a body of work largely outside the record industry, issuing a torrent of self-released cassettes and LPs whose titles almost all open with the syllable Con, completed by a second that points somewhere. By the start of the 1980s th…

Last year, the long-awaited self-titled debut finally appeared on vinyl. Now the series continues with Enter Now The World, the second album by Jouni Havukainen's project. Originally released by Cold Meat Industry in 1992, it remains, for many listeners, the project's masterpiece. The elements that defined In Slaughter Natives were already present on the debut. On Enter Now The World, everything became larger, heavier and more detailed. Thunderous percussion, heavy electronics, brass and string …

This is supposed to be a 40th anniversary reissue. Well, it still is, but with year of a delay. It was told enough about the early Metgumbnerbone recordings. We just keep some quotes here. "It’s hard to imagine anything more haunting than the folk horror ritual sounds which Metgumbnerbone conjured forth in the Ruins of Industry." - Kristian Olsson, Shock Tilt "Working mainly with percussion, Metgumbnerbone evolves an improvisational continuum that depicts subterranean and old, eerie, murky templ…

*300 copies limited edition* At this point the vast swathes of unreleased Muslimgauze material Bryn Jones left behind when he passed away over 25 years ago is as legendary as any of his work.

A new series of singles collecting one of Bryn Jones’ innumerable DAT tapes that would s…

We are proud to release Three Movements from “Some Kind of Seasoning” by the eminent Warren Burt: composer (and performer, writer, instrument builder, educator) of genius. Burt was born in 1949 in the USA, and moved to Australia in 1975.
