Reissues
So Far
Bomb! **Remastered 180g LP, includes reproductions of the original nine art prints and insert** After the poor sales of their debut album, Faust's “So Far” , originally released in 1972, presents the more commercial and accessible side of the legendary German krautrock band without giving up their advanced and experimental personality. It is a perfect album to begin exploring the group's discography, featuring one of their most well-known songs, “It's a Rainy Day, Sunshine Girl”, and is consider…
Down By Law
The soundtrack to Jim Jarmusch's 1986 film Down By Law is composed and performed by John Lurie, who also plays the pimp Jack in the movie. His world-weary avant-jazz pieces like "Please Come to My House," "What Do You Know About Music, You're Not a Lawyer," "Strangers in the Day," and "Fork in the Road" convey the film's seedy but humorous crime story.
Live In Amsterdam
*2025 stock* Warehouse fund ! The legendary Monk's quartet appearance at the world-famous Concertgebouw in Amsterdam in May 1961. The high priest of Bop, one of the most important, if enigmatic figures in modern Jazz together with three of his main disciples, tenor sax specialist Charlie Rouse and the ultra dynamic rhythm section of John Ore - double bass and Frankie Dunlop - drums, in a wonderful performance based on super tight renditions of classic tunes such as Jackie -ing, Straight No Chase…
Annihilation Devices Part 2
A slow building, dread filled bass rumble that gradually builds in intensity before you release you're surrounded by dense, crunching textures. Originally released on cassette in an edition of 30 copies, which was the last Less Than Zero cassette and last release for almost 10 years.
Annihilation Devices
An icy cold blast of Italian harsh noise from Gabriele Giuliani, across two tracks of blown out electronics and feedback. Originally released as a cassette on Less Than Zero in 1996 and presented in a digipak case with a replication of the original layout.
The Itself Of Itself
Huge Tip! *Limited edition of 400 copies.* Since 1983, Justin K. Broadrick (Godflesh, Jesu, Council Estate Electronics, The Sidewinder, etc.) has been producing largely solo, but sometimes collaborative, work under the Final moniker. Beginning as a more obviously power electronics-inspired project it has during the past two decades or so evolved into one which still retains that sonic intensity but has a more expansive sound. 'I Am the Dirt Under Your Fingernails' is the latest album, closely fo…
Praise Poems Volume 10 (A journey into deep, soulful jazz & funk from the 1970s)
Watch out! You are holding the 125th (one-hundred-and-twenty fifth!) album on Tramp Records in your hands! We are honored to celebrate this impressive anniversary with the tenth volume in the Praise Poems series. This time, too, we go on a journey to discover previously unheard regions of jazz, folk and AOR from the 1970s and 80s. Praise Poems Vol.10 presents sixteen (almost) forgotten rare groove gems, all released between the years 1970 and 1984. One of the many highlights is the opening track…
The Stone
Mega Tip! Purple Trap, the powerful trio of Keiji Haino (voice, guitar), Bill Laswell on bass, and Rashied Ali (drums), recorded live on stage at The Stone. Recorded in December 2005, this furious live album by what can easily be called a super group remained unreleased till in 2023 Bill Laswell made it accessible in a rough-mixed digital version for his bandcamp subscribers program exclusively. For this vinyl version, the music has been newly mixed by Dirk Dresselhaus (SchneiderTM) and mastered…
Spiritual Jazz 17: SABA / MPS
'High quality music to be enjoyed by many people all around the world, no matter where they are' Andreas Brunner-Schwer, MPS Records
Après-Midi
"Another gem from the Yen Records treasure trove (Haruomi Hosono and Yukihiro Takahashi production). Cheeky, unhurried, fairly minimal synth pop, with a dusting of tittering bleeps, bloops, and sleigh bells for dimension. Mostly dry and Disneyland plump, but of course nothing Hosono is quite what it seems. Après-Midi is far from simplistic–there are plenty of well-executed jabs at western pop music (and culture), and then there’s the surprise “Catchball,” which is a deep, dark grinding proto-tec…
The Parable of Arable Land
Milestone! The Texan Psych legends push boundaries on their 1967 debut album. The first and finest album by The Red Crayola – the band feted in psychedelia circles for producing some of the weirdest and most inventive music ever – which sounded unlike anything else from the 60s. At the cutting edge of psychedelic music, The Parable Of Arable Land defies boundaries and unleashes a free-form anti-rock noise on audiences. A precursor to avant-garde/noise & industrial rock, this recording is a conti…
L'Onorata Famiglia (Uccidere È Cosa Nostra)
Huge Tip! Experience the dramatic pulse of Italian crime cinema with the first-ever vinyl reissue of Bruno Nicolai’s iconic soundtrack for "L’Onorata Famiglia (Uccidere È Cosa Nostra)", the 1973 masterpiece directed by Tonino Ricci.
Renowned for his prolific work in Italian film scores, Nicolai blends atmospheric jazz-rock, brooding fusion, and haunting melodies to perfectly capture the tension and intrigue of the era’s mafia-centric storytelling. This long-overdue release brings new life to the…
Early Water
Limited edition of 500 copies on clear with blue streaks vinyl. Reissue of on LP a classic duo performance, recorded in Berlin 1976. Ash Ra Tempel's Gottsching (Farfisa, ARP, Gibson, tape echoes with Revox A 77) and Tangerine Dream/Agitation Free associate Hoenig (Yamaha, EMS, Moog, Oberheim) layering the zones for one continuous 48 minute flow of cosmic sequencing.
For Those Who Chant
For Those Who Chant, a record by trumpeter Luis Gasca that was published in 1972 and recorded at Columbia Studios in San Francisco, included a "who's who" of the city's A-tier musical scene from that time period with the participation of musicians. Carlos Santana and a pre-Journey Neal Schon on guitar, a rhythm unit consisting of Lenny White on drums, Stanley Clarke on bass (who were about to leap into a new band named Return to Forever), and the indefatigable Joe Henderson on tenor saxophone, t…
Maroon
*2024 repress* Separated from both its reputation and its sleeve art, the music of Muslimgauze explores the relationship of visual sensations -- space, color, depth, illusion -- to the listening experience. The music on Maroon is dub-like inspired techno music, laidback with voices appearing randomly in the mix. The thick drums and rich found sounds that densely populate the soundscapes on Maroon give materiality to the warm presence of the synth washes. The music is so layered and textured that…
Live Lugano 1984, First Visit
"The special qualities of this music emerge from the focus on Lacy’s soprano saxophone in this unique instrumentation; the transparency and intimacy of the bass and guitar create a nuanced background set against the variety of improvisational strategies." - Art Lange"The removal of two recorded compositions and the editing here is based on notes originally written by Steve Lacy on the cassette he sent me to listen to and evaluate the music for release. I acquired the original recording in 1985 f…
Música de Baixa Fidelidade
*300 copies limited edition* Two records came out in 1988 that forever changed the perception of "experimental" or "serious" music produced in Portugal. These were "Plux Quba" by Nuno Canavarro and "Música de Baixa Fidelidade" by Tózé (António) Ferreira. Both were released by the same label - Ama Romanta -, an influential independent imprint closely linked to avantgarde pop band Pop Dell'Arte. Because those records appeared in what could be perceived as an "alternative pop" framework, they rescu…
Dez Anos Depois
Nara Leão's Dez Anos Depois, released in 1971, is a stunning double album that revisits her musical journey and celebrates her contributions to Brazilian music. Known as the "Muse of Bossa Nova," Leão recorded this reflective and intimate collection of reinterpreted classics in both Paris and Rio de Janeiro. The album features timeless tracks like "Chega de Saudade," "O Barquinho," and "Corcovado," showcasing her gentle yet emotionally powerful vocals paired with minimalist acoustic arrangements…
