Joy In Fear
goat (jp) are renowned for two albums released in 2013 and 2015 that took Kraftwerk’s man-machine concept back to its roots with swingeing, inch-tight drums, bass and guitar patterns that needed to be heard to be believed. For their long-in-the-making new album ‘Joy In Fear’, band leader Koshiro Hino (ypy, Kakuhan) describes the process as “90 percent pain” - and we can well believe it - few other records we can think of transmute DAW-composed rhythmic precision into such an expressive instrumen…
Trinity
Trinity, the third collaborative album between Lawrence English and Stephen Vitiello, continues the pair’s patient, pliable musical explorations while marrying them with a unique collaborator—one per track—to map new territories. Trinity presents five collaborations with acclaimed artists who work at the edges of sound and genre: Chris Abrahams (The Necks), improvising turntablist Marina Rosenfeld, Brendan Canty (Fugazi, The Messthetics), multidisciplinary artist Aki Onda, and the late contempor…
10,000 Rivers
Robert Stillman didn’t set out to make a concept album about Steve Jobs. But as a composer and improviser whose music asks questions about his relationship with reality, a curiosity about the promises and follies of technology took him there. Following an intuitive path from James Bridle’s acclaimed book on non-human intelligence Ways of Being to the seminal 1995 essay “The California Ideology”, Stillman arrived at Walter Isaacson’s biography of Apple founder Steve Jobs – and what would become t…
Plough Through The Rust
The DIY ramshackle energy we know and love from the group is present and familiar, as is the dry wit and authenticity (a word I’m nervous in using, but if the shoe fits), however Plough Through the Rust often sees the group's songwriting taking a more introspective and personal path. Whereas Pig City was sonically expansive (and three songs here are drawn from those sessions), Rust often draws things closer, finding the charm within the scaled back honesty and rawness.
"Like Velvet Underground i…
Le Città di Pianura
After ‘Requiescat In Plavem’ and ‘Lentius Profundius Suavius’, Krano returns with another curveball in his discography, a kolossal double-album and his first original soundtrack for the movie ‘Le Città di Pianura’ (The Last One For The Road), directed by Francesco Sossai and presented at the Cannes Film Festival (Un Certain Regard), a rollicking, bittersweet journey through the Venetian countryside, where memory and mischief ride shotgun, a road-movie through a territory undergoing great transfo…
The Yellow Box
As trans-Atlantic alchemists pulling from a shared dialectic that somehow encompassed both postmodern deconstructionist tendencies and a delightfully subversive sense of poptimism, it’s easy to see how David Cunningham and Peter Gordon immediately hit it off upon initially meeting each other back in the late-1970s at the height of their youthful transgressions. Having initially worked together on the second Flying Lizards’ LP fourth wall, with its ingenious fusion of dismantled rhythms and rearr…

Baghali
*300 copies limited edition* Operating on the fringes of pure improv, organised chaos, minimal composition, lo-fi electronics and Italian spaghetti westerns, wide-eyed and with a healthy dose of DIY aesthetics lies the world of Jaan. It’s a poetic & cosmic universe, exploring “discreet music” whilst wandering on the edges of the Cat People soundtrack & Brian Eno’s more experimental output, in which you might yourself find floating, wandering or in the middle of a market place. Jaan is a collecti…
Electric Catapult
*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Bursting with high energy and unpredictability, "Electric Catapult" showcases Lehtisalo's evolution as a solo artist, moving away from his previous electronic maximalism into a realm of impressionistic soundscapes. The album's frenetic, all-over-the-place pace and eclectic composition reflect Lehtisalo's willingness to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories. Drawing inspiration and style from early 00's New York and New Zealand improv groups li…
Viptronic
*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Salo Ra II is a new duo of Topias Tiheäsalo and Jussi Lehtisalo. Taking inspiration from the old vacuum tube televisions and the decayed industrial landscape of the city of Salo, the duo’s debut LP Viptronic creates a beautiful and an intuititive balance of seemingly incongruous sounds: overdriven zither-noise and unearthly electronic basso continuo blend touchingly with the resonances of electric guitar’s open tunings. Dedicated to whoever who has ever b…
Cafetic Atom
*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Two living legends of Finnish DIY music scene join forces on this magically wonderful piece of experimental otherness. Jukka Nousiainen (Räjäyttäjät, Vaisu Luksus, Rambling Boys, Jukka ja Jytämimmit etc.) and Jussi Lehtisalo (Circle, Susi-Unto, Steel Mammoth, Salo Ra II etc.) improvise with intense intent and inventiveness. Sounds travel through free noise space of cosmic hiss and dark matter crackle but also encounter multicolored starlight nebulas of bl…
Like A Strange Matador
*2025 stock* Like moonlight playing on an ocean tide, Burn Into Sleep’s first record shimmers in the darkness with a perilous beauty. The core duo of David McLean and poet Lauren Bolger having been working with each other in various contexts since 2014, sharing the stage in Bolger’s iconoclastic no-wave band Locean, in a sorely missed free jazz trio with percussionist Pascal Nichols, guesting with Polish avant-garde collective Shepherd of Cats and Dream Skills of NYC and were both handpicked to …
Wedding Songs
*2025 stock* Wedding Songs marks the return to the label of filmmaker and composer, Clint Trofa, with his most ambitious and masterfully executed suite of music to date. Recorded with Jim Wallis throughout 2022, the 10 compositions that make up the album have been created with the patience of an auteur director, each piece of mise-en-scene delicately placed, unfolding with the grace, subtlety and emotional resonance of a European art house film.
Indeed, much of the album's melodic content has a…
Fudo
Introducing "Fudo," the acclaimed album by the avant-garde duo Mapa, now available in a specially remastered vinyl edition. "Fudo" stands as a pivotal work in the landscape of experimental electronic music, blending elements of punk energy, jazz improvisation, and electro-acoustic soundscapes to create a deeply evocative sonic journey.

Live / Live
Just a few weeks back in a packed-full railway arch deep in South London, Jemima played their debut show and the moment seemed too good not to capture. Their gently lapping, invertedly melancholic sound is instantly recognisable from the first touch of the strings, although now songs, sketches and fragments from the album are elongate to have further room to breathe. Like finding a place of quiet refuge amidst the increasing urban chaos, these two extended live sets lower the pace for an ephemer…
Six Places
London-based musician Luke Cowan delivers his most expansive work yet with ‘Six Places’, a quietly dazzling suite that renders memory, geography and imagination as sound. Across six extended pieces recorded in Ely, Cambridge, York and London, Cowan bends the borders between composition and improvisation, everyday resonance and ensemble interplay, to arrive at a music that feels porous, fragile and strangely luminous. Cowan calls it “a collection of impressions of places. Some are real and some i…
Fireproof Sweat
Having written and sung in five languages on 2020’s “Uva Ursi”, Urs Graf Consort return to Italian for “Fireproof Sweat”, a record of irresistible charm, innovation and existential lyricism. “Ten years ago, a fire took the lives of four of our friends on rue Myrha in Paris, just a few months after Urs Graf Consort was founded. One of them — Nicolas Millet, a magnificent bookseller and Félix Fénéon specialist — was meant to be our bassist. The title Fireproof Sweat, and the album as a whole, ques…
Prynhawn Da!
Artist, composer and researcher Max Syedtollan arrives on bison with 34 minutes of merrie-making madness, written for a parade-performance by basketmaker Lewis Prosser and informed by the tradition of masked mummer’s theatre. Written to be blasted off the back of a lorry, ‘Prynhawn Da!’ accompanied a troupe of huge wicker figures - Parsnabler o Grog, Vogum Gertlin, The Woman with The Big Head and Goyle Cornett - as they paraded down the streets of Newtown, Swansea, Cardiff and Caernarfon as part…
Touch
With Touch, the Tortoise bandmembers — Dan Bitney, John Herndon, Douglas McCombs, John McEntire, and Jeff Parker — harness their collectivist songwriting approach, a slightly anarchistic but resolutely egalitarian process where ideas triumph over ego towards an abstracted muscularity. While there are still excursions into the dusky, elegantly gnarled jazz ambience that flourished on landmark works like Millions Now Living Will Never Die and TNT, Touch is perhaps most remarkable for Tortoise's un…
