Linea D'Ombra
1993 release ** "Linea d'ombra is the CD from more than twenty years ago with which the author inaugurated his personal journey as an interpreter-composer on the border between the languages of jazz, classical music and rock. At the time, Roberto Verti wrote about it in the presentation of the CD: “A musician with a cult background who moves between the moods of the new age and the high craftsmanship of the academy, between the La Scala scene and minimal, jazz; plays with flutes and combines t…
Long On Logic
1990 release ** "Rova Saxophone Quartet’s 1990 recording of music composed by Steve Adams, Fred Frith, Henry Kaiser, Larry Ochs and Jon Raskin. With music by Rova, Henry Kaiser (g), and Fred Frith, this was an outgrowth of a successful local concert series. It’s one of the few sax quartet albums that utilizes studio and sampling technology as an artistic tool."
Acrid Acme (Of) P16.D4
1989 release (RARE) ** "The acRID acME [of] P16.D4 might be the most well known work, no doubt due to the unique approach taken for the first segment: in 1987, the P16.D4 dredged recordings from the 1981 punk incarnation and placed them in a completely different context. As a result, "Maba 4. 12." and "Rotting Outscratched" reveal their initial forms, the former with the occasionally perceptible fragment of punk thrash sipping out unscathed from the abused tapes, and the latter allowing a hint o…
Live Improvisations
1990 release ** "For fans of that particular brand of noisy avant-gardism for which Robert Christgau coined the term "skronk," guitarist/violinist Fred Frith and saxophonist Tim Hodgkinson need no introduction. Charter members of the 1970s avant rock outfit Henry Cow, each has spent a lot of time making unspeakable noises with his instrument, and often those noises have been unspeakably glorious. This collection of live recordings -- all of them taken from live gigs around England in May of 1990…
Shitsurai / 室礼
* White Vinyl * Meitei / 冥丁 is the moniker of Japanese producer, composer, and musician Daisuke Fujita. The project stemmed from a preoccupation with the customs and rituals of his country’s past, and a desire to cast light on an era and aesthetic that he noted was drifting out of the collective Japanese consciousness with each passing generation, what he calls “the lost Japanese mood”. First came “Kwaidan”, a study into the lost art of Japanese ghost story-telling, followed by “Komachi”, an att…

Orthodox Approach
1995 release ** "Years ago there was a concert with the Zug percussionist Beat Föllmi in a factory in Cham that was supposed to be demolished, which was recorded on a CD with the title “unorthodox approach”. It was all about free improvisation and an extensive and unusual set of sound instruments: the most powerful piece was a gong over two meters in diameter. Today – 1996 – the same percussionist titles his latest recording “orthodox approach”. The change from “unorthodox” to “orthodox” is not …

Dos D'Ânes
2009 release ** "Hacking away on a homemade system and twisted electronic tools, eRikm and Noetinger gleefully activate levers, tactile screens and joysticks with the utmost concentration. Doneda makes the air shake with acoustic vibrations. Together, they give free rein to their audio tricks, buzzing, interference, constructive feedback, electro-shocks, concrete slipping, hazed quotes, white noise, saturations and incisive scratches."
Ear Wash

Contact High With The Godz
2025 stock Coming from the same Lower East Side scene that had already delivered the Fugs to ESP-Disk’, when the Godz went into the studio in 1966, there was no precedent for what they did. The first albums of the Velvet Underground and the Stooges lay in the future. The title Contact High with the Godz might suggest psychedelia, but even that freewheeling style, still yet to blossom, would come nowhere near the freedom and sheer avant-gardeness of the Godz' first LP. They were not afraid to sou…

1994 release (VERY RARE) ** "This important and rare CD was produced by Jonathan and Elizabeth Glasier, Gary Morrison, and Brian McLaren. This is the only extant permanent document of Darreg's work. Includes original booklet with reproductions of tuning charts. Ivor Darreg (1917-1994) was interested in both just intonations (tuning systems based on the ratios between the frequencies of the pitches) and equal temperaments (tunings with pitches equally spaced through the octave, which require a d…
The Souls Of Birds And Mice
2025 stock Released in 2015, this is arguably Dan Melchior's stand alone release in a massively impressive catalog. Eschewing the gutbucket trawl & extended electro pedal-whomp,The Souls of Birds and Mice is more fugue like; it isn’t composed of elements so much as it is composed of the composing of elements. Recorded at a pivotal time in the his life, one can detect the influences varying from his wife, Letha Rodman-Melchior to Pale Cocoon, Martin Davorin Jagodić' & Pôle running through this l…
Handbook For Mortals
2025 stock Thought these were long gone, but hey, not so fast! Originally released in 2013, this was Letha's 1st foray into the vinyl game AND her 1st under her own name (as opposed to Tretetam, which she'd been using since 2008). 'Handbook' is a lovely sound pastiche of everyday day life turned inside out. Both ambient & disturbing, her sound distillations are wondrous & hypnotic respites in this suffocating modernity. FFO; Moondog, United Dairies label, John Bender. Very last copies.
