In a Minor Groove
'Dorothy Ashby was the very best and most swinging performer on the multi-stringed instrument associated with the gates of heaven. Here on Earth, Ashby adeptly plucked and strummed the harp like nobody else, as evidenced on a single reissue containing her two best LPs for the Prestige and Prestige/New Jazz labels from 1958 -- Hip Harp and In a Minor Groove. Alongside her prior efforts for the Savoy label, they collectively represent a small but substantive discography for the Detroit native in s…
East Coasting
Recorded in 1957 this is one of Charles Mingus's lesser known sessions. Here the master was at the head of an awesome band including some of his regular sidemen. Jimmy Knepper - trombone, Shafi Hadi - alto saxophone, tenor saxophone and Dannie Richmond - drums, along with nothing but Bill Evans on piano! This is dense, lyrical and very stimulating music deeply rooted in the bop tradition yet with an open ear to other sound territories.
Zerkelus
*150 copies limited edition* Richard Youngs is neither a stranger to Fourth Dimension Records or creating music from a disparate array of sources that then fall somewhere near that space where immersive drones converge with something altogether more frayed, ravaged or disquiet. 'Zerkelus', named after an imaginary Babylonian king, comprises two lengthy side-long parts, with the first being akin to something of an extended orchestral tune-up utilising voice, oboe and indiscernible sources to crea…
Your Community Hub
Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan's new album, Your Community Hub, compellingly continues his sonic exploration of the New Towns movement. The issues the councillors, planners, and architects set out to solve still resound and echo throughout society. For the latest instalment in this unique project, Gordon Chapman-Fox turns his laser eye to focus on Community and the Community Centres that populated Warrington and Runcorn in order to provide all the facilities people needed within a …

Fully remastered and enhanced 3LP/2CD supervised by Danny Hyde. Includes 9 additional rare or unreleased tracks, remastered by Grammy-nominated engineer Jessica Thompson.
Originally released in 2005 and in many ways the band’s ultimate swan song, it is now considered one of the go-to albums for introducing new listeners to the unparalleled ma…

Rocksession
500 copies. One of the most original, layered, and innovative krautrock bands, Embryo fuses traditional ethnic music with their own jazzy space-rock style. Over the course of their decades-long existence, the group has traveled the world, played with hundreds of different musicians, and released dozens of records. Almost every album features different lineups and styles. "Rocksession" is another Embryo album with material recorded during the sessions between 1971 and 1972. The band wanted to rel…
Arzachel
One of the great lost albums of British psychedelia, original copies of Arzachel's 1969 self-titled debut fetch huge sums on the collectors' market and it is not difficult to understand why. Originally released in 1969 on the small Evolution label, this album quite simply contains some of the best psych to ever come out of the UK. However, like so many other great albums of the era, it soon dropped entirely from the radar due to bad promotion. In fact, it may not have ever been rediscovered at a…
Jackal The Invizible
*Edition of 700 * Listeners who know much of anything about Bryn Jones' work as Muslimgauze know that he was prolific in both his work and in the way he sent out his work to labels and other interested parties. Fittingly enough for an artist that feverishly productive and often taciturn to the point of frustration, he didn't tend to give much more information than handwritten track titles on the sleeve of a DAT. Why he would submit multiple copies of the same or similar tracks to those he worked…
Muhammadunize
* Edition of 700 * Recorded and mixed at Abraham Mosque, Manchester 1996, this is a re-release of Muslimlim 009, only C2 taken from stdc 001. Listeners who know much of anything about Bryn Jones’ work as Muslimgauze know that he was prolific in both his work and Muhammadunize, has what could be called a classic feel to it, with a very familiar blend of drones, string instruments, and synths, and varying percussion/break-beat patterns, in turn mixed with a number of hard-to-catch vocal samples…
Maroon
*2024 repress* Separated from both its reputation and its sleeve art, the music of Muslimgauze explores the relationship of visual sensations -- space, color, depth, illusion -- to the listening experience. The music on Maroon is dub-like inspired techno music, laidback with voices appearing randomly in the mix. The thick drums and rich found sounds that densely populate the soundscapes on Maroon give materiality to the warm presence of the synth washes. The music is so layered and textured that…
Three Tsuru Origami
Three improvisers having fun and taking risks. The classic piano-less jazz trio reinvented by mixing melodies, dirty sounds, noises, extended techniques and references to tradition with a quasi-punk approach.
Forever
Forever by Alessandro Alessandroni is a posthumous album recorded during the composer’s final months in Namibia, operating as both a celebration of his artistry and a poignant musical testament. Fusing orchestral pop, jazz, and classical elements, the record elegantly reflects Alessandroni's multifaceted talent, closing his storied career with subtlety and grace.
Autumn 2021 / Autumn 2001
Autumn 2021 / Autumn 2001 is a split single pairing Los Angeles producer Free the Robots with the late Italian jazz pianist and electronic music pioneer Gianni Safred. The release juxtaposes Safred's original 1978 track, taken from the cult album Futuribile (The Life To Come), with a contemporary reimagining by Free the Robots, weaving retro-futuristic electronics and deep grooves into crisp, beat-heavy reinterpretation.
Love's Secret Domain
*2022 gold vinyl repress with insert. 100 copies limited edition* In 1991 Coil released the third of their early classic full-length albums "Love's Secret Domain", seemingly casting aside the gloom and funereal beauty of its predecessors in favour of a painstakingly multi-layered hallucinogenic electronic beast, which unlike some of their fellow ex-industrial contemporaries' releases of the time wasn't an attempt at easy accessibility or (the-gods-forbid) danceability, but a vibrating psychedeli…
Dispatch All Gods
R. Seiliog returns with Dispatch All Gods, his fifth full-length release and a compelling evolution of his distinct approach to experimental electronics. Weaving field recordings, granular synthesis, and fractal sound design, the album forges immersive sonic landscapes, extending the post-genre explorations of his previous works while grounding them in the tactile textures of the Welsh countryside.
Bear Creek
Bear Creek by Camp of Wolves is a spectral journey into the folds of memory—an electronic album steeped in nostalgia and tinged with a spectral melancholy. Drawing on organic sounds and homespun textures, the record crafts a deeply personal, woodsy soundscape that mirrors the confusion and warmth of childhood revisited in adulthood, embodying both bittersweet reverie and nocturnal introspection.
Northern Minimalism 4
Mat Handley returns to his South Yorkshire inspired Pulselovers project with a bold new chapter in the acclaimed Northern Minimalism series. What began as a deeply personal tribute to the region’s industrial, post-punk and synth-pop legacies has now evolved into a sprawling, 20-track remix project released via Castles in Space's new CD imprint, Lunar Module. The double CD includes remixes from a stellar cast of electronic artists: Aural Design, Apta, Pefkin, Grey Frequency/Blue Room, Sulk Rooms,…
Subterranea
Newcastle-based electronic artist Bartholomew delivers Subterranea. An album which delves deep into emotional terrain—fusing generative electronics, orchestral flourishes, and raw sonic textures into a poignant meditation on instability and resilience.
Hollow
2025 stock "Hollow" by 36 is an ambient album released on Past Inside The Present, meticulously crafted by UK artist Dennis Huddleston between 2005 and 2012. The record comprises thirteen tracks inhabited by looped, minimalist melodies, delicate electronic and “string” arrangements, and gentle glitch textures, resulting in a deeply immersive soundscape. "Hollow" takes inspiration from works like William Basinski's "Disintegration Loops," pairing digitally-generated distortion with a haunting, me…
