Psychedelia & Kraut / Experimental

Electric Taal Band, the eponymous debut from Electric Taal Band, is a vibrant Toronto project that forges unexpected connections between Punjabi percussion, cosmic jazz, and modern electronics. Channeling inspirations from Little India crate-digging to club experiments, the record traverses rhythms and textures with a fearless, exploratory spirit.​

2025 Repress The shifting dimensions of Masana Temples, fourth album from psychedelic explorers Kikagaku Moyo,are informed by various experiences the band had with traveling through life together, ranging from the months spent on tour to making a pilgrimage to Lisbon to record the album with jazz musician Bruno Pernadas. The band sought out Pernadas both out of admiration for his music and in an intentional move to work with a producer who came from a wildly different background. With Masana Tem…

2025 Repress Kikagaku Moyo here sound anything but lost, their child-like wonder manifested in a confident, courageous exploration of sound. Labels – psychedelic, folk, prog-rock, psychedelic-folk-mixed-with-prog-rock – do little to accurately reflect the spectrum of influences on display, let alone the more impactful realization of completeness in Kikagaku Moyo’s songs.

In 2009, the Triton venue (near Paris, France) was sold  out to celebrate the 35th anniversary of Univers Zéro, an iconic band of the Rock In Opposition movement. These two exceptional concerts highlighted a radical  and unique style of music, at the crossroads of new music and chamber rock, skilfully blending acoustic and electric instruments, as heard on the cult album 'Ceux du Dehors'.

*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* The faces behind Yesterdays Breed is two 'older' guys, who should know better than jumping around sounding like frustrated teenagers with urgent needs, but we can't help it. We really likes the stuff from the 60's american garage-scene, with it's haircurling depressive b-side ballads, floating pop psych and poundering fuzz-rocking dancetunes, djingo-django guitar folktunes with smooth vocals and beep-organs. So... now you will, like us, get the opportunit…

*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Circle, the uncompromising avant-rock collective from Finland, announce the release of Supermassive, a recording that captures the band’s legendary performance at the Tavastia Club in Helsinki during the Supermassive Festival on October 23, 2014.   On that night, the band unveiled their audacious "Double-edged Circle" lineup, wielding an unprecedented seven guitars in unison. Their sonic charge carved through Tavastia’s walls in a precise, surgical incisi…

Wewantsounds is delighted to announce the release of Akiko Yano's cult 1979 album 7 O'Clock in Tokyo, recorded live in September 1978 at a pivotal moment in Japanese music history, just as Yellow Magic Orchestra was about to take the world by storm (Yano would tour the world with the group in 1979). Featuring a very funky Yano performance accompanied by Haruomi Hosono, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Yukihiro Takahashi, plus Tatsuro Yamashita and Minako Yoshida, the album is presented outside Japan for the…

Vinylization of the splendid 2021 cassette, issued by Garden Portal. The music was recorded partially out west in San Francisco and Point Reyes (hence the title), as well as in Jeffrey Alexander's current locale of Philadelphia. An instrumental addition to Alexander's canon, the music was mostly generated on guitar, but other sonic elements include -- bass, pebbles, fake mellotron, waves, moog, shells, fife, magnetic tape, and talking book phonograph. The results are a sweet, rural stroll throug…

Biggest Tip! 51 year anniversary edition pressing including a single with Bob Hund covering a Philemon Arthur & the Dung song, and Philemon Arthur & the Dung covering Bob Hund. No lyric insert as the original pressing, but an interview on the slipcase.  It compiles the complete works of this strange Swedish duo, including their lone self-titled LP release from 1972 (which supposedly won a Grammy in Sweden and is considered "the most cult album in Sweden ever") and a cassette-only follow up from …

* Clear red vinyl edition * "Area di Servizio" is a truly unique release in the history of ‘70s Italian music: a record consisting of twelve Italian-sung compositions, mainly the result of the collaboration between Riccardo “Rolli” Pirolli and Franco Battiato: the first came from the Cristalli Fragili group, which Battiato wanted as his musicians in the early seventies. The album recording sessions lasted a few days, and several songs were written and arranged directly in the studio. The result …

*2025 stock* Debut album by Italian Experimental Singer Adele H on Obsolete Recordings and Psychic Sounds. Loops, voices and drums creating an experimental, spiritual and primordial sound.

A very important artist from Naples, Alan Sorrenti released his first album in 1972 on the legendary Harvest label. Aria is an absolute Italian prog classic, with two different sides: the first only contained the long title track, a dreamy psych-suite starting with acoustic guitar and based on the marvelous instrument-like voice of Sorrenti, and exploding in the final part with a memorable violin solo by Jean Luc Ponty. Side 2 was softer, with three tracks, two of which also appeared on a singl…

Sister of well known artist Alan Sorrenti, Jenny (or Jane, as she was called in her early releases) was born in Naples from a welsh mother, and formed there the acid folk trio Saint Just. With this band, she released two albums before embarking in a solo career that only produced two more albums in the 70’s. Jenny Sorrenti’s style as a solo artist is far from her previous bands, being much closer to the song format. Both albums being mainly built on Jenny’s delicate voice; “Suspiro” is the best …

** Edition of 300 ** Everest Magma’s career over the past 10 years has been slowly building one of the most ecstatic and singular paths of the Italian underground scene. His dense and beautiful three albums were not afraid to cross boundaries with a mix of hypnotic tape beats, digital wonk, psych folk tropicalia and kinetic dub. This new offering 'Alto//Piano' once again sees him in uncharted territories, where nature is sublimated into a personal alien vision mixing acid-folk fingerpicking, ton…

A truly iconic acid folk manifesto, interspersed with intense moments of pure psych rock. A sonic journey into imaginary lands

Reissue of Organisation's Tone Float, originally released in 1970. German rock band, Organisation, is often referred to as the prototype or predecessor of Kraftwerk -- the godfathers of electronic music. In fact, it was the first iteration of Kraftwerk and if the band had managed to overrule its record label, RCA, Tone Float would have been credited as such. But given that the album was to be released only in the United Kingdom, the label opted for the more Anglicized name, "Organisation". Tone …

The black Albumen began as an experiment by Glyn BiggaBush (Rockers Hi Fi, Dandelion Set, Magic Drum Orchestra, Lightning Head) to see if he could channel the music of Egg - specifically their 1969 debut album but with elements of follow-ups The Polite Force & Civil Surface - into his own productions. The black Albumen's musical palette was restricted to the same instrumentation as used by Egg - organ, piano, tone generator / test oscillator, bass guitar & drums. Time signatures were generally i…

11th album by the one-of-a-kind collective: psychedelia and free form jazz (not jazz) trigger a sophisticated excursion into weird textures with drastic turns. Dislocated dense music full of secret connections!

Following quick fire sell outs of recent 45s from The Hologram People and Delta, next up on North London’s prolific Feral Child label is an absolute showstopper; the mighty Jonny Halifax Invocation return with a new set of remixes from their phenomenal second full length “Açid Blüüs Räägs: Vol. 2” released last year to rave reviews, via their own Greasy Noise imprint and God Unknown.  The East London based collective have been active since 2021, releasing a stash of amazing lathe cut releases, a…

2025 lucky restock, reduced price (very last copies). This 13 CD box set collects the complete available recordings of '70s cult rockers from CA, Ya Ho Wha 13. Led by the late Father Yod, who supposedly died in a hang-gliding accident in the late '70s (?), Ya Ho Wha 13 released numerous LPs (and at least one 8-Track) on their own Higher Key label in the mid-'70s. Only distributed locally at the time, some of these have been reissued in psuedo-legit (or outright bootleg) fashion in the UK over th…

CD reissue of this album from 1974, Penetration: An Aquarian Symphony was intended to be Ya Ho Wha 13's masterwork, acting as a Merkabah of sorts to elevate its listeners to a heightened state of consciousness. Along with I'm Gonna Take You Home, it's just the best -- one of the finest sacred space cadet acid-mantra psychedelic death trips of all time, for sure. Captain Father Yod moans & groans, a perfect vocal chime over the top of the searing guitar rip of "Djin" and a massive cloak of tribal…

First authorized CD reissue of this album, originally issued by Higher Key in 1974. "The legendary and ultra-rare Father Yod And The Spirit Of '76's second album fully remastered and presented in the original full color sleeve. Includes new notes from various family members especially written for this release. The extremely positive & instructive nature of the Contraction period lyrically is amazing. Father is like a marine taking a beachhead in WWII and we were the beachhead. Our previous 'Pavl…

Just Restocked - Drag City presents the first official reissue of Dorothy Carter’s 1976 debut album, her folk-music exegesis: Troubadour. It’s been 20 years since Dorothy’s passing — but thanks to last year’s reissue of her second album, Waillee Waillee (1978), and this edition of Troubadour, her music is surging forward ever more powerfully. Today’s announcement comes with a visualizer for the first single, “The King of Glory”, a hypnotic hymn hammered by Dorothy evoking western medieval music.…

**2020 stock** This was the first spontaneous release that was made into a record, credited to Father Yod and The Spirit of '76. It came out in 1973, the year of Kohoutek, when the imminent arrival of the big comet spawned a new round of cosmic consciousness in the media and with people all over the planet. This was more than a comet, its radiance was enormous, it came from ancient times to be experienced again by the enlightened people of the day. The Source Family were alive with expectation a…

Packaged in a mini LP sleeve with obi. "With Magma, Faust was one of the most important of all the European groups of the '70s. Compiled from 'lost' and unreleased material, originally released as Munich & Elsewhere on the 10th Anniversary of their disbandment (inc. prophetic pre-dub mixing) as well as most of the unreleased Faust Party 3 LP. Intense, eccentric, hypnotic, a true timeless classic." 180 gram vinyl. (After the Manor House recordings in 1972)... then chaos: Faust splits: some of us …

*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Restocked!!! ZNR was the French duo of Hector Zazou and Joseph Racaille (hence, Zazou 'n' Racaille) active in the mid to late '70s. Their 1976 debut, Barricade 3, is an anti-pop masterpiece that truly defies categorization; it makes perfect sense that ZNR appears on the infamous Nurse With Wound list. Featuring an array of seemingly dichotomous instruments (piano, synthes…

First ever CD reissue of one of the most extreme Krautrock-era albums ever made. Originally released by Philips Germany in 1970, the triple LP edition came in an elaborate 'mirror' sleeve and has been near-impossible to find for 35+ years; there have been a handful of suggested reissues over the years, but finally Captain Trip has brought it to fruition, in collaboration with founding member Suzanne Doucet. Incredible fold out packaging emulates the original, with front embossing and silver-foil…
