Beauty Is A Rare Thing: The Complete Atlantic Recordings
Ornette Coleman has been a leading force in jazz since his startling debut in the late '50s, Coleman's emotive alto saxophone style relies on melodic improvisation unbound by chord changes. This style (and philosophy) was dubbed by Ornette 'harmelodics' and reached its peak in a small combo whose virtuoso playing had the power of the blues and the multi-rhythmic sophistication of Monk, Mingus, or Coltrane. The landmark series of albums Coleman released in the late '50s and early '60s still defin…

Das Baank
Rekem Records and Fragment Factory are proud to present a solo album from veteran Swedish artist Leif Elggren. Skirting both the area of pure sound, as well as that of symbolism, the record is a powerful statement on the limits of social and political absurdity and corruption in our present time.
‘Das Baank’ is notable for the absence of its creator’s voice, as the sound of Elggren’s characteristic spoken word is nowhere to be found. Instead the music traverses between carefully paced dram…
Eiszeit
Underground German kosmic rock band GAM recorded their sole record, Eisziet, in 1978 and then shelved it after the master tape disappeared. Comprised of echo-guitar pioneer Günter Schickert, guitarist Axel Struck, and drummer Michael Leske, GAM’s record sat undiscovered and thought lost until The Crack in the Cosmic Egg authors Alan and Steven Freeman tracked down Günter, found out that he had a copy of the recording, and released it on CD on their label, Cosmic Egg, in 2004.Championed by Julian…
Vixit
** 2016 restock ** A masterpiece, tiny edition of 200 copies only. Following on from his astonishing "Miseri Lares" on Pan, here we have an uncompromising, poetic and unexpected culmination of Valerio Tricoli tireless experimentation over the past few years. Valerio Tricoli is one of the first name that springs to mind when the talk turns to current analogue synth, reel-to-reel tape fetishism and electronics. And somehow he led the way in transforming the nowadays experiments in sound manipulati…

Crepuscular Hour
Crepuscular Hour is an epic, hypnotic one-hour piece for three choirs, three pairs of noise musicians, and church organ, to be performed in a cathedral or similar location with musicians surrounding the audience. The room fills with sound in an intense, but almost meditative hour, as the voices blend with the distortion, the noise sometimes takes over, and the organ eventually takes the music to a new level. The visual design of this concert is a play on the crepuscular rays -- rays of su…
Confirmation

Nomadic percussionist Tatsuya Nakatani travels worldwide, his performances blooming with ceaseless expanse.

A Last Discovery: The Essential Collection, 1984-2001
Finis Africæ (or Finis Africae): words redolent of mystery and myth, of Europe looking out to new lands, new worlds, new times. And so it is with A Last Discovery, the work of Spaniard Juan Alberto Arteche Guel, and his musical co-adventurers, recorded between 1984 and 2001. After 15 years of musical success in Spain with his band Nuestro Pequeño Mundo, Arteche was ready to experiment with new ideas, and with the purchase of a four-track reel-to-reel recorder he did so, exploring imaginary gl…

Circle
"Pori's favourite pranksters have along history of making things difficult for their listeners, but in the most enjoyably, obfuscatory way possible. This was the band who leased out their name to an entirely different group of hard rockers for the space of 2013, taking on the name Falcon (ex-Circle) for the duration of the loan of their identity before recovering their name as Circle (ex-Falcon).
Keeping track of Prince between becoming a symbol or returning to using a name like mere mortals see…
Erda / Suite N
Milestone reissue! Jean Schwarz has always been the wild man of the Grm, and also of Celia, his own label. His musical domiciliary rights are not only in the realms of electroacoustics, but also in jazz and extra-European traditions (through his engagement in the Department of ethnomusicology at the Musée de l’Homme in Paris). These varied influences result in a very peculiar electroacoustic music. The influences are not always immediately traceable, but the attitude in Schwarz’s works is maybe …

After a hiatus of three years Inventing Masks is a new moniker the producer uses to publish his self-titled debut LP. ‘Inventing Masks’ comprises six concentric but slightly out-of-balance sound sculptures, equally inspired from generative composition, ambient music, and hip hop. "Inventing Masks can stand alongside some of the greatest loop-based records of the sampledelic era. Put a vocalist on to…
