Good News From Africa
Pianist-composer Abdullah Ibrahim ( formerly known as “Dollar Brand“) has long ranked among South Africa’s giants alongside Hugh Masekela, Miriam Makeba and the late Kippie Mokoetsi. A master of improvisation with a distinctive African edge, the exiled Cape Town musician has developed a musical style over the past 30 years that defies categorization.Rather, it is a fascinating mosaic of diverse traditions including African rutal and township rhythms, classical jazz, and gospel. South African fol…

"Ryuhyo" – Sailing Ice
Original release completely reproduced as faithfully as possible. Pressed and printed in Japan. A recording of a passionate live performance held in the northern land of Nemuro, which continues to be loved along with the first album "Tact." The title song is literally epic, like ice floes colliding in the ocean. Played by a group under the direction of the legendary Japanese drummer Motohiko Hino, the music is firmly in the finest modal way. The reed players, Mabumi Yamaguchi on tenor and Yasuak…
Misty
Big Tip! Original release completely reproduced as faithfully as possible. Misty is one of the most sought-after titles from the acclaimed Three Blind Mice catalog. Few, if any, international audiophile jazz recordings have maintained the kind of deep and profound influence over techniques and even entire label repretoire as Three Blind Mice's Blow Up, Midnight Sugar and Misty. Originally recorded in Tokyo in 1974, this Piano Trio release from TBM features Tsuyoshi Yamamoto on piano, Isoo Fukui …

Edition of 300. Silkscreen printed softcover, Hand-sewn binding, 56 pages. Eliane Radigue ‘Une idée du temps’ pays homage to Éliane Radigue and her unrivalled contribution to the electronic music genre over the past century.

Trans Canada Highway
Tip! *2024 stock* Quality control has never been much of a problem for Boards of Canada. The duo has magnified its legacy at least partly by indulging in generous spells of inactivity. The infrequency of BoC's output has not only fed into the mythos of their carefully cultivated brand, it's also engendered a level of trust that's served as a consolatory point of pride for fans who've felt shut out by the duo's otherwise total remove from the peripheral obligations (live shows, videos, interviews…
In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country
*2024 stock* In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country is an EP by Scottish electronic music duo Boards of Canada. It was released by Warp and music70 on 27 November 2000, in the period between the duo's albums Music Has the Right to Children and Geogaddi. The four-track collection centers around the theme of the Branch Davidian religious sect and their Waco retreat. The title of the EP refers to a vocoder-processed and slowed voice sample used on the third track, which repeats "come out and live …
Tomorrow's Harvest
*2024 stock* "After all the intrigue, hidden codes on 12" records that went on to sell for astronomical amounts of money on eBay, adverts on Cartoon Network, a song played at a Tokyo intersection, and other covert shenanigans that made the Daft Punk teaser campaign look prosaic, here I am, in the Warp offices in North West London, signing a disclaimer ahead of an exclusive listen to the new Boards Of Canada album, Tomorrow's Harvest. It's a fitting way to listen to a record by a band whose obses…
Draft 7.30
*2024 stock* "Draft 7.30 is the seventh album by English electronic music duo Autechre, released on 7 April 2003 by Warp Records. Around the time of the album's release, Sean Booth stated in an interview that "[rhythm] doesn't seem to limit us in the way it did when we first started"." - Wikipedia
Confield
*2024 stock* "With Confield, Sean Booth and Rob Brown largely abandoned the warm ambient sounds of their earlier works such as Amber and Tri Repetae in favour of more chaotic and abstract sound palettes and methods of composition that they had been pursuing with LP5, EP7, and Peel Session 2. Confield saw the experimental use of computer programs, specifically Max/MSP, to form the basis of songs instead of stand-alone synthesizers. According to Booth, "Most of Confield came out of experiments wit…
Carnegie Hall '71
Kicking off what will be an Alice Coltrane year with more releases to come in the next 12 months, is a previously unreleased, killer live recording from 1971. Recorded live, by Impulse! at a charity gala given at Carnegie Hall for the benefit of the Integral Yoga Institute in 1971, this incredible set never saw commercial release until now. The gala concert was one of two halves with the first two transcendental tunes by Alice taken from the album she had just released on Impulse! and then two …
Hoyo
The long-awaited LP reissue of the avant-garde pop band Noizunzuri, acclaimed as the Japanese Neu!, is here. This first album, originally released in 1985 through Telegraph, features the enigmatic participation of Jun Togawa on vocals. It's a bizarre record that represents indigenous Japanese rock originating from Kyoto.
A Con Cristal / Rats Can Coil - Cats Can Roil
Tip! *300 copies limited edition CD in 6-panel digisleeve* "A Con Cristal", the third Cranioclast album - or rather EP - originally released in 1987, and "Rats Can Coil - Cats Can Roil" from 1990, are offered for the first time, and together, on CD in a limited edition completely restored and remastered by Andrea Marutti.
Three new tracks based on "Rats - Cats" are also added as a welcome unreleased bonus under the title "Accidental encounter of rats and cats on a turntable"; running time of thi…
Kolik-San-Art
Tip! *300 copies limited edition CD in 6-panel digisleeve* Almost 40 years after its first release in 1986, and just three months after the release of "Arctic Salon", their latest double LP, Cranioclast's second album is finally available on CD for the first time in a limited edition completely restored and remastered by Andrea Marutti.
When the whole Cranioclast discography is considered, "Kolik San Art" is probably their album that hosts the most 'guest' musicians and offers the greatest blend…
El Tor
* Deluxe LP reissue on 180 gr. Clear Red vinyl * Another band from Naples, and also connected to Osanna, formed by Lino Vairetti and Massimo Guarino when that band split in 1974. But Città Frontale were in fact two different bands, the first one being active in 1970 before Osanna were formed with four of that later band members and Gianni Leone, that left to join Balletto di Bronzo. After first Osanna's split up in 1974, former members Lino Vairetti (vocals, guitar, mellotron, harmonica) and Ma…
Alphataurus
LP reissue in triple gatefold sleeve as the original album, with sound taken the master tapes. Nothing much to say about this one, "Alphataurus", by sure one of the ten best Italian prog records of all times. "Alpahataurus" is a masterpiece, so well crafted and played that it seems impossible that it has been made by a group of unknowns. The singer Bavaro has a very original voice, keyboard player Pietro Pellegrini plays with competence and no self-indulgence, the guitar-playing of Guido Wasserm…
Travels Over Feeling: Arthur Russell, a Life (Book)
The music of Arthur Russell defies classification. From his pioneering compositions as part of New York's vibrant avant-garde scene (alongside artists including Philip Glass, David Byrne, Laurie Anderson, John Cage, and Allen Ginsberg) to his genre-expanding disco productions, from his new wave and art pop to his posthumously released folk songs, Russell crafted timeless and foundationally influential work until his premature death in 1992 from AIDS-related illnesses.
Now, in a landmark publicat…
