Caution Radiation Area
* 500 copies, numbered edition. Remastered edition, White vinyl * Area's second album takes its cues from the most serious side of early-'70s British progressive rock, particularly Soft Machine and King Crimson. There's a high-voltage, at times furious energy to the quasi-jazz-rock fusion, with keyboards showing some influence from Miles Davis fusion records, and the guitars wheeling off lines with a busy anxiety. Despite some sinister progressions and overlays of electronic squiggles (the closi…
Nippon Girls 2: Japanese Pop, Beat & Rock'n'Roll 1966-1970
* 180g vinyl and packaged in heavy-duty sleeves * There was a time not so long ago when credibility in pop and rock music came only from success within the American or British marketplace. No matter how accomplished they might be, foreign acts and their attendant music scenes were frequently viewed with condescension, and anything not sung in English deemed a novelty. As the development of rock in other countries during its first two decades comes increasingly into focus, such cultural imperiali…
Nippon Girls: Japanese Pop, Beat & Bossa Nova 1967-69
* 180g vinyl and packaged in heavy-duty sleeves * Covering 1967 to 1979, Big Beat records’ Nippon Girls series aims to shed some much deserved light on the Pop, Rock and Roll, Big Beat and Bossa Nova movement that happened in Japan.

By popular demand, the series kicks off with “Nippon Girls”, a celebration of the female side of Japan’s 1960s pop scene. The LP comprises a dozen highlights from the CD of the same title issued on o…
Gebrauchsspuren
* 330 copies * After "Today, the organ has played beautifully again" and "32 bpm" from 2019, Edition Telemark presents three new LPs by Dutch sound artist William Engelen, released on the occasion of his exhibition "Klinkt goed" at Kunstmuseum Den Haag. All three LPs are released separately but may be listened to as a whole because they portray three work groups that are representative of Engelen's compositional methods: Falten, Verstrijken and Gebrauchsspuren.

Le Marais
Besoins Premiers presents the Le Marais. Once upon a time in a strange, distant world... Three characters Anouar, Guillaume, Jacques and their acolytes went in search of the original swamp to make a break with the urban beliefs. From an urgent need to leave town for a journey, they said to me that a call of the forest leads their willing. Le Marais as one named it in French, is a place of stagnant water, generally shallow and invaded by aquatic or herbaceous vegetation. It is an uncommon wetlan…
Icons
Composer and percussionist Eli Keszler has very likely been a vital force behind some of the 21st century’s most forward-facing music. Among his CV highlights are collaborations with the likes of Oneohtrix Point Never, Laurel Halo, Kevin Beasley and Rashad Becker, as well as a hand in crafting the nightmarishly psychedelic score for Uncut Gems. Now, Keszler returns with a solo album of beguiling fourth world jazz.
Icons begins with an ambient synth swell, where the only hint of rhythm comes in t…
La Morte Young
* Limited Edition of 200 hand-numbered copies * Exit the haunted by the desolation latent drones of their previous productions: guitars and electronics in the red, screamed voice in walls of hyper-free noise, La Morte Young piles up the abrasive strata and breaks all the dikes with anger, offering an atomized vision of rock, as a reprise of the beginning in a primitive and violent version, only for the duration of a stunning 7’’. Philippe Robert

La Ragazza Fuoristrada
** 2021 Remastere repress** This is the second movie with Zeudi Araya, filmed in a hurry to take advantage of the success of the previous “La ragazza dalla pelle di luna”. “La ragazza fuoristrada”, set between Egypt and Ferrara, Italy, deals in an unusual way with the theme of racial integration, still a taboo at the time especially in remote Italian provinces. Despite the fact that the title evokes the legendary "Dune Buggy" (the main character, Luc Merenda, is a journalist who goes to Egypt to…
Feelings
** 2021 Remastered Repress** “Feelings” is considered an absolute cult inside the library music panorama.

Questo Sporco Mondo Meraviglioso
* 2021 Repress * “Questo Sporco Mondo Meraviglioso” is one of the numerous collaborations between the director Luigi Scattini and Piero Umiliani, and one of the most interesting and varied soundtracks within the composer’s repertoire. Produced in collaboration with Piero Loy, the picture falls into the Mondo Movies genre, documentaries dedicated to controversial and shocking topics (without aspiring to be journalistic or adhering to scientific evidence). In this case, Scattini’s direction focuse…
