Latest additions & updates to our catalogue:
Faust / Nurse With Wound - Disconnected. CD. ) New studio album from the Zappi Diermaier, Jean-Hervé Peron and Amaury Cambuzat of Faust, mixed by the prolific Steve Stapleton and Colin Potter (Nursewith Wound). A successful collaboration that marries two distinct & fascinating musical identities "Disconnected" will appeal to drone/experimental fans. This is a great collaboration with some truly weird arrangements. Four tracks: "Lass Mich (13:23)", "Disconnected (11:21)", "Tu M'Entends? (14:14)" and "It Will Take Time (10:21)." | Gruppo D'improvvisazione - Nuova Consonanza. CD. ) A nalbum perfect for Ennio Morricone fans, who played trumpet inthe extraordinary Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza from 1965 when it was founded by composer Franco Evangelisti. These lengthy improvised sound collages are challenging to listen to but have their own beauty and are of serious historical importance. Traclisting: EFLOT, SCRATCH, SETTIMINO and SOUP. |
David Bowie - The Buddha Of Suburbia. CD. ) "The Buddha Of Suburbia" was David Bowie's 19th full studio album. It has been unavailable for many years. Only the title track of the album was actually featured in the series, and Bowie has cited the album as one of the most enjoyable projects that he's been involved with. | Circle - Katapult. CD. ) The premier kraut-influenced, psychedelic band have created their most dark and twisted record to date - which, for those familiar with Circle, know is no small feat. The constants of their sound remain - hard repetition, heavy riffs, trance inducing rhythms - aided, on this recording, by an ominous, spooky and, dare we say, straight up evil vibe. You could very well be listening to the greatest, long lost dark psychedelia record, or maybe the soundtrack to some never released drug-drenched horror film. |

You could very well be listening to the greatest, long lost dark psychedelia record, or maybe the soundtrack to some never released drug-drenched horror film. | Cluster - Cluster 71. LP. ) 180 gram vinyl version of this album that stands as a testament to minimalist "cosmische" music. The three untitled tracks composed and performed by Moebius and Roedelius are exploratory, ever-changing pieces with focuses on guitar distortion and synthesizer wails, though each goes far beyond. This album deserves the many accolades it's been given, and holds up as an early landmark in the history of beatless ambience. |
Magma - Mythes Et Legendes Vol. 3. DVD. ) The epic continues with the third volume which lays it out with Kohntarkosz, the 1973 masterpiece which was a decisive turning point in the development of the Vander odyssey. The DVD takes us up to 1979, with extracts from the album Attahk, given masterful interpretations here by a line-up comprised of the present-day core members of the group and the third star guest, Benoit Widemann, who, as always, plays his Mini-Moog brilliantly | Pole - R. CD. ) 2001 release that compiles the "Raum 1" and "Raum 2", tracks produced in late 1996 now expanded into four movements,variations and the original versions. "Raum 1" chops and changes its rhythm into a full on sound while "Raum 2", has been transformed into a dubby, groovy sound collage.Beautiful definition of soundscapes and atmospheres throughout on ths unique album.Stefan Betke demonstrates once again that he is one of the most talented minimalist musicians on the planet. |
Magma - Uber Kommandoh. Dble CD. ) A 14 track 2 CD set from the internationally known French Jazz-Rock group Magma. The 14 tracks from this collection have been selected from, Udu Wudu, their Seventh album which was originally released in 1976, Attahk, their Eighth album which was originally released in 1977, Live, which was recorded at The Taverne De L'Olypia in Paris in June 1975. | Sun Ra & His Solar Myth Arkestra - Strange Worlds. Dble CD. Sun Ra is without doubt one of the strangest, most mythical and important figures in modern jazz history. This two disc collection featuring fourteen tracks recorded for BYG in 1969 and 1970 and only previously available as a full price double album. |
My Cat Is An Alien / Christain Marclay / Okklung Lee - From The Earth To The Spheres Vol. VI. CD. ) Fourth volume in the split series set up by Maurizio and Roberto Opalio aka My Cat Is An Alien on their own Opax Records imprint, sees the Italian cosmic duo splitting the media with well-known audio visual artist, performer and turntable-art innovator Christian Marclay together with cello improviser Okkyung Lee, ubiquitous figure of downtown NY avant-garde scene. "Rubbings" is Marclay's track, while the other track "Beyond the limits of the stars / Beyond the limits of the grooves" is a one of their heaviest conceptions to date, the piece is built on electric guitars' strings moaning onto walls of space drones and electronics like ectoplasmic presences emerging from the brillliance of the Void. The initial minimal and claustrophobic guitar chords slowly building into an ocean of howling moduled feedbacks combined with fragmented and distorted real-time inserts of post-romantic classical music from old 78rpm shellac records. Barmy yet brilliant. Released in an elegant textured digi-sleeve. | Los Angeles Free Music Society - I.D. Art #2. CD. ) CD re-issue of the was the second LP release on their label, coming after Le Forte Four’s ‘Bikini tennis shoes’ LP, and before the 2LP ‘Live at the Brand’, a split album between Le 44 and The Doo-Dooettes. It dates from 1976. It is also probably the most difficult LP on their catalogue to find. Originally released in an edition of just 200 copies, most of which were given out to the 44 artists and groups who appeared on this extraordinary LP. The deal was that each track was paid for by the contributor at a rate of $8 per minute in exchange for 4 copies of the disc. Consequently very few copies were ever made available via the LAFMS mail order service.With a running time of 66 minutes and the sheer variety of contributions, I.D. Art #2 remained for most people a mysterious and tantalising item.Most of the contributors came from the students at Otis Art Institute in LA, and many make their only ever recordings for this disc.creative artists and designers at the start of their careers who submitted their audio idea, be it via telephone, in subways, recontextualising old vinyl, philosophising, story telling, being abstract, joking, rehearsing and lo even playing instruments. This exhilerating journey, bursting with ideas was compiled by Joe Potts and Waynna Kato. |

All tracks were originally released on the following Celluloid Records albums; 'Golden Palominos'-1983, 'Visions Of Excess'-1985, 'Blast Of Silence'-1986 and 'A Dead Horse'-1989.

Dble CD. ) Daphne Oram might not be a name as familiar as, say Delia Derbyshire or Raymond Scott, but she is one of the unsung heroes of the early electronics movement, and even more interestingly was the founder of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop! Are you impressed yet? Well you should be, Daphne joined the BBC at a mere 17 years of age back in 1942 (turning down a place at the Royal Academy of Music) and from there on she badgered the company endlessly to start investing in electronic music.She left the BBC to start her own studio and pioneer her own musical instrument named the Oramics system. Her work is here presented across two discs and shows many of her early compositions for film and television and also some later work (post 1966) which made use of the Oramics system. |
