À La Petite Cuiller
Dizonord is very happy to bring you the reissue of this French 1988 underground self released gem, re-mastered from master tapes! Dubby, punky, politically engaged new wave with a sense of humour, we've always been touched by the voice of Agnès (bass) and the phlegmatic Michel (machines and graphics). We could have thought the language barrier would have stopped the pleasure of this record but obviously not, as Mobutu song is already an international digger classic! We really hope you'll enjoy t…

The Black Record
Necessary reissue of a truly seminal, minimalist totem and founding document of the avant-garde underground!
Lone
“Lone is about loneliness and hidden places. It’s been my shelter for the last three years. It’s a work full of internalized questions. Am I still who I was before? Do I have the same energy and ambitions? Is this all still really me? A sense of nostalgia permeates through all its tracks, though each one has a different root. I’ve always felt connected to both tribal and dark atmospheres, and cinematic moods as well. The beautiful dualism with CTM’s cello, and the romantic guitar featured by Car…

A Fistful of Dollars / Per un Pugno di Dollari
2024 repress. "Red canyon" colored vinyl edition. Year 1964. Almost out of nowhere, a half-known and little-regarded director like Sergio Leone reinterprets a film by Akira Kurosawa in a western key and, putting together all the right pieces that contribute to the making of a film, with a pinch of intuition establishes new rules for the 'spaghetti western' genre, starting an endless series of imitations. "For a Fistful of Dollars" would not have the same impact without the inimitable music by En…
