Dreaming With Alice
Newly remastered reissue of Mark Fry's Dreaming With Alice, originally released in 1972. Dreaming With Alice was already an obscurity by the time of its release. Recorded by a 19 year old Mark Fry for an Italian sub label of RCA, it presented a beautifully naive kind of psychedelic folk similar to what the Incredible String Band laid down at the same time just a bit more straight forwarded. Young Mark enchants his listeners with dreamy vocal melodies of utter beauty which create an outmost peace…

Warrior On the Edge of Time
Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock "Hawkwind's fifth studio album found the band enjoying a rare oasis of stability after the multitudinous personnel shifts of the past five years. Only the recruitment of a second drummer, Alan Powell, disturbed the equanimity of the lineup that created the previous year's Hall of the Mountain Grill, although it would soon be time to change again. By the end of the year, bas…

Saat
Comes in a CD sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with Obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese. Recording in a good studio in 1972 with an accomplished engineer/musician such as Dieter Dierks (Ash Ra Tempel, Cosmic Jokers, Tangerine Dream, and yes, the Scorpions), certainly enabled Emtidi to expand their musical style on “Saat.” The end result was a shimmering, lush cosmic folk trip, with multi-tracked and treated acoustic guitars plus electric piano, fragile angelic femme vocal…
Inventions For Electric Guitar
Comes in mini LP replica with OBI & Japanese insert. With his first solo album, which was originally released in 1974, Manuel Gottsching (Ash Ra Tempel) laid the foundation for many other upcoming works. In fact, the guitar was invented here, for his play on the three epic tracks are years ahead of its time: Circular, flat, layered loops and improvisations create a compelling, hypnotic atmosphere and make this album in retrospect a landmark of new guitar culture. The album was completely remaste…

Hopes And Fears
*2024 reissue* Debut album released in ‘78 by Art Bears, a unit spawned from the fusion of Henry Cow and Slap Happy. With lyrics by Cutler + songs by Frith and songs by Dagmar, the image of the band is as if the extracts of the above two bands had been extracted and sharpened. A memorable album that could be seen as the starting point for the movement later known as ‘RecoMenkei’.

The World As It Is Today
*2024 reissue* Third and final album released in 1980. This album was released as a 45rpm 30 cm LP in analogue format.

Paper jacket, SHM-CD, remastered in 2015, with three bonus tracks, as well as a reproduced 20-page booklet that came with the first pressing. Long-awaited encore…
Winter Songs
*2024 reissue* Brilliant second album by Art Bears, a band/project featuring Fred Frith, Chris Cutler and Dagmar Krause, formed in 1978 after disputes over the musical direction within Henry Cow. 'Winter Songs', originally released in 1979, placed Art Bears in the forefront of the Rock In Opposition Movement. Art Bears' intense and brutal avant-garde approach on the album comes across as primordial expression, which is nailed down by Krause's violently charismatic voice. As a piece of music reve…
