On John Zorn’s Olympiad Vol. 4 – Curling, John Zorn exhumes one of his rarest 1970s game pieces, a slow‑burn study in sustained tones, handing it to ROVA Saxophone Quartet and the William Winant Percussion Group, who turn its minimalist rules into 45 minutes of hovering, hypnotic sound.
On John Zorn’s Bagatelles Vol. 6, John Zorn hands a fresh batch of his angular miniatures to the Brian Marsella Trio, who render them as a volatile, deeply melodic piano‑trio songbook where Monkish heads, free detonations and elusive “exotic” moods feel entirely at home.
On John Zorn’s Bagatelles Vol. 5, John Zorn hands eight spiky miniatures to the Kris Davis Quartet, who turn his angular “weirdo tunes” into a fierce, lyrical piano‑guitar quartet set where structure, swing and free combustion constantly collide.
On Exotica, Sun Ra is recast as an unlikely lounge visionary, folding the lush fantasy worlds of Les Baxter and Hollywood mood music into raw, off‑kilter Saturn tapes that turn easy listening into uneasy, Afrofuturist escape.

Featuring an all-star line-up of Anthony Braxton, Arthur Jones, Burton Greene, Beb Guérin, and Claude Delcloo, it has long remaine…
Matata were formed in Kenya in 1963, laying down their grooves in Nairobi's Brilliant Club before going on to record two albums in London in the early 70s. Both Air Fiesta and Independence are perfect nuggets of Afro-funk, but alas Matata were reportedly homesick and they disbanded to return home. Their short-lived legacy lives on though, and now Dynamites Cuts have turned to their second album to present two of the hottest joints on a cool and deadly 7". 'I Feel Funky' is one of the band's bigg…

This 7" unveils rare Muslimgauze tracks from unlabelled DATs, featuring vibrant, rhythmic experiments—Side A with upbeat synths, Side B embracing dub textures—showcasing Bryn Jones’ relentless innovation.
Newly remastered vinyl edition of this seminal 1972 release. In the history of experimental music, few artistic decisions have proven as radical or as successful as Florian Fricke's complete abandonment of electronic instrumentation on Popol Vuh's third album, Hosianna Mantra. Released in 1972, this stunning work represents not just a departure from the Moog synthesizer explorations that defined the group's first two releases, but a complete reimagining of what spiritual music could accomplish i…
Mystic Synthesis at the Dawn of Electronic Consciousness! Florian Fricke's visionary second album remains a towering achievement in transcendental electronics
Widely regarded as one of the essential entries in the vast Muslimgauze catalogue, Mullah Said returns once more via Staalplaat in a third edition vinyl pressing and a reworked digipack CD edition of 400 copies - both featuring updated artwork with additional gold printing. Originally issued in 1998 as the eighteenth installment in Staalplaat's Muslimgauze subscription series, Mullah Said represents Bryn Jones at the height of his powers. Engineered by John Delf at his Abraham Mosque studio in M…
Generic Flipper, the debut album by Flipper, remains the most absorbing full-length LP to emerge from the early San Francisco punk scene. A constant source of imitation for so-called "noise rock" bands, it has yet to be surpassed in its nihilistic glee. Recorded between October 1980 and August 1981 and released in 1982 on the indispensable Subterranean Records, this album functions as a chaotic, sticky mass of individual personalities: the magma-like bass eruptions and dual vocals of Will Shatte…
Ethiopiques 32: Nalbandian The Ethiopian resurrects Nalbandian The Ethiopian & Either/Orchestra as a blazing big‑band bridge between 1950s Addis and 21st‑century Boston, restoring Nerses Nalbandian’s forgotten Ethio‑jazz charts with cinematic force.
On Lola, Zbigniew Namysłowski Modern Jazz Quartet fuse blazing post‑bop with Polish highlander melodies, cutting a 1964 London session that became both a historic first outside the Iron Curtain and a cult artefact of fiercely local modern jazz.

Limited Edition. ** Katcharpari is the second solo album by Italian jazz trumpeter Enrico Rava, recorded and released in January 1973 and considered a cornerstone of the jazz-rock/fusion genre.

*Listed as one of the four most influential Jazz albums that happened to be released in 1959 (Dave Brubeck -Time Out & Charles Mingus -Ah Um among them), so much has been said and written about Miles Davis'Kind Of Blue, it's virtually impossible to summarize all the necessary info to the length of this page. We could simply list some facts (best sold Jazz album ever worldwide). We could try to explain why it's the best Jazz album ever made, but the music itself will do that to you.
As Bill Evans…
On Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat, Charanjit Singh folds centuries of Hindustani tradition into a three‑box Roland future, crafting a 1982 raga‑disco séance that would lie dormant for decades before being hailed as proto–acid house and a cornerstone of South Asian electronic modernity.
On Postcards from Arrakis, BeNe GeSSeRiT turn early‑’80s bedroom electronics into a fractured sci‑fi cabaret, where Alain Neffe’s minimal, skewed backdrops and Nadine Bal’s bilingual/imaginary vocal spills collide in short, surreal missives from a parallel cheap‑cosmic Belgium.
Huge Tip! Small repress. "I stood on top of the mountain and looked out over the landscape. It was so beautiful that my chest hurt. The light vibrated, time stood still, and the contours dissolved for a moment. Everything had changed; I felt it then. I took their little hands so as not to lose contact with the ground. Then we ran down the mountain, scraping our knees. Still, we didn't make it. You had already put away all the nautical charts, loosened the moorings and steered out among the skerr…
