The Sea Of Wires
The Sea Of Wires were a very early '80s electronic duo hailing from the industrial wastelands of Coventry. Followers of the German Electronic Scene of the time (Tangerine Dream, Ash Ra Tempel, Popol Vuh, Cluster etc), Chris Jones and Tony Murphy used elements of Kosmische Musik in their compositions, with a variety of warm synths, analogue effects, and layered experimentation. This double-CD collects cassettes which appeared on their own Sea Of Wires label: "Individually Screened" (1980, then 19…
The Mutations: Unreleased Basil Kirchin Film Music From 1968 and 1974
Some mighty fine unreleased Basil Kirchin's film music here, including the freaky deaky Mutations score, plus a killer Eastern-tinged TV soundtrack from a TV show you may never have heard of, called Journey To The Unknown, which was a spooky precursor to Tales Of The Unexpected. Kirchin's distinctive talent resides in the smooth juxtapositions and mutations of recorded surroundings, free jazz skronk, surprising vocal samples, and delicate electronic harmonies that he employs in his music.

Khandroma
Marking the launch of Ubi Kū - a brand-new imprint exploring the links between Buddhism, spirituality, and contemporary creation - Soundwalk Collective returns with “Khandroma”, the latest in their longstanding series of collaborations with Patti Smith. Rooted in extensive research and field recordings made across Upper Mustang (formerly Kingdom of Lo), in Nepal, during 2016, this absolute stunner weaves transcendent and immersive sonic tapestries that radically rethink the terms and possibiliti…
Pagan Psych-Folk Glam Vocal Sounds of the Italian Cinema (1965-1977)
Pagan Psych-Folk Glam Vocal Sounds of the Italian Cinema is a superb collection of extremely obscure gems culled from a variety of forgotten films. Featuring mostly vocal tracks, these songs are dripping with that mid 1960s to mid 1970s exploratory nature of song-craft, from clever and majestic to the ridiculously absurd. Acoustic guitars laced with strings and subtle effects, haunting and moody lyrical tales, and epic ballads that rock - all of them fitting together like an impossible puzzle th…
Distorted Clamor
We are proud to announce 'Distorted Clamor', the latest full-length album from legendary Spanish ambient composer Suso Saiz. Marking his eighth release with our label, the album showcases Saiz at his spellbinding best, continuing a prolific creative phase in a career that spans over 40 years. Building upon 'Resonant Bodies' and 'Nothing Is Objective', his most recent full length releases for Music From Memory, Saiz's dedication to experimentation and conceptual approach to sound lie at the centr…
Operation Segerpil
Edition of 294 copies, brown cardboard sleeves with paste-on artwork and insert. Inspired by decades of well-intended Swedish mission work, the soul of the raw and uncompromising nature and early 80's bedroom electronics, Operation Segerpil was originally released as two separate EPs on Förfall in 2022-2023. Now slightly reworked and reorganized with the lesser parts scrapped, a rather powerful album somehow emerged from the mist. Brutish weirdo electronics covered in sweat and mosquitoes with b…

Michael Angelo
Enigmatic exemplar of subterranean overachievers, Michael Angelo Nigro, has long been known to sound-hounds searching for esoteric figures on the fringe. He was a man out-of-time, with unerring vision and dedication, principally known for his head-of-the-class 1977 private-press joy, “Michael Angelo” (Guinn 1050—aka The Guinn Album). The Guinn Album, almost entirely an effort of self-creation, is a staggering, hook-filled, inner space hi-fi snap-shot of dreamy pop psychedelia, filled with contem…
Trees Without Leaves
2024 stock In early 2012 VOD released one of the Holy Grails of Minimal/Synth/80’s-Cold Wave music, the superb Paul Nova Trees Without Leaves Lp as an extended 2Lp-Release.Many requests on behalf of fans and music-interests have asked for a CD-Reissue, so here it is as deluxe 2CD-Set Trifold DIgipack. In 1980 Paul Nova started his Minimal/Synth-career with Bizarre Unit which produced just one legendary and sought-after 7"inch 'Dancing/Away from the Screaming Car' in 1981. Shortly after in 1982, …
Cupar Grain Silo
'Cupar Grain Silo' is Sam Annand's first release on the Blackford Hill label. Its nine tracks blur the lines between ambient electronica and sonic history, as synthesised melodies and rhythms reverberate through the extreme acoustics of the disused Cupar Grain Silo in Scotland. Built in 1964 as a sugar store, the silo towers 60 metres above the surrounding Fife countryside. Its industrial life was short: in 1971 it was closed, and barring a short period as a grain store, remained empty for decad…
Never Say When
A limited edition CD reissue of this classic compilation album originally released by Gary Mundy's Broken Flag imprint in 1987. Remastered by Puppy38, this also features two bonus tracks not included on the LP but only previously found on the even rarer cassette, this is a timely reminder of this fantastic archive document full of artists mostly still active in one form or another.
Riusciranno I Nostri Eroi A Ritrovare L'Amico Misteriosamente Scomparso In Africa? (Colonna Sonora Originale Del Film)
Finally the first official vinyl reissue of the original Trovajoli soundtrack. Originally dated 1968 this is possibly one of the greatest Italian cult “road” movie of all times ! Composed by Maestro Armando Trovajoli and featuring Alessandro Alessandroni Cantori Moderni, this is a glorious mix of visionary epic sounds for a thrilling trip through exotic Africa. The plot of this film was in fact located in Angola, then a Portuguese colony. So, by poetic license, the music is heavily influenced b…
Phase Murmur
Over top of Gillespie's nimble, pointillist drumming (he also plays piano and harpsichord), Hunerberg employs flute, organ, bass and balloon (that's not a saxophone on "Cucumber"). The disorienting opener "Cro Magnon/Two" recalls Kraftwerk precursor the Organisation, or contemporaries like Faust. There's a strange, disconsolate atmosphere to the proceedings, almost as if the air had been sucked out of a recording session booked for some avant-garde jazz heavies. Instead of Impulse, Phase Murmur …
Swinging Oildrops!
2024 stock These days, where a young generation worldwide discovers good swinging Jazz again, where Dexter Gordon returned after so many years in exile like a triumphator to New York and "young swinging Scott Hamilton" becomes something like a 'super-star', it is hard to believe that this album was recorded 13 years ago - hard to believe by both artistic and technical standard. At this time, in the year of 1966, Beatlemania reached its peak and the beat and/ or rock wave ruled the world of music…
Native North America (Vol. 1) Aboriginal Folk, Rock And Country 1966-1985
2024 stock Largely unheard, criminally undocumented, but at their core, utterly revolutionary, the recordings of the diverse North American Aboriginal community will finally take their rightful place in our collective history in the form of Native North America (Vol. 1): Aboriginal Folk, Rock, and Country 1966–1985. An anthology of music that was once near-extinct and off-the-grid is now available for all to hear, in what is, without a doubt, Light In The Attic’s most ambitious and historically …
Emergency!
In what many consider to be the birth of jazz fusion, Emergency!, led by Tony Williams (drums) with bandmates John Mclaughlin (guitar) and Larry Young (organ), is a true adventure in the beginning of the jazz-rock blend that would take shape in late 1960’s and beyond. From the opening title track, the direction is decisive and commands attention as Williams leads his crew through a mixture of swing, rock and free jazz that cements its place as one of the most influential albums of the time. The …
What A Beautiful Place
This recorded autobiography of Catherine Howe, age 20, briefly appeared in 1971. Too young for memoirs, most artists have barely established any sort of musical competence by the age of legal adulthood, let alone compositions matching the maturity and complexity of Howe's. What A Beautiful Place, however, is a prodigious effort wrought from the melancholy ruminations of post-adolescence. The album's twelve songs unfold like a classic bildungsroman, beginning in the smoke-stained industrial count…
Berlin Concert
Trost Records proudly announces the latest release in its ongoing cooperation with Berlin’s legendary FMP label, with the long overdue reissue of two classic live albums by the singular alto saxophonist Noah Howard, a key figure in New York’s free jazz revolution during the 1960s. Berlin Concert was recorded live in the titular city in January of 1975 with a quartet featuring pianist Takashi Kako, bassist Kent Carter, drummer Oliver Johnson, and percussionist Lamont Hampton, while Schizophrenic …
