The Magic Of Ju-Ju
Opening with the 18+ minute track of the same name, Archie Shepp’s ‘The Magic of Ju-Ju’ takes on a fevered pace as the centrepiece of this date from 1968. Shepp lets loose from the beginning as he’s joined by Beaver Harris, Norman Connor, Ed Blackwell, Frank Charles and Dennis Charles, all on percussion. The initial pace never dissipates throughout the title-track’s run. The additional tracks on Magic of Ju-Ju are a departure from the first, sitting more in a traditional realm. The album is a va…
Vista
180g Vinyl LP! Pressed at Third Man in Detroit! Marion Brown ended his '70s stint at Impulse! Records with this serene and colorful album. It features musicians such as drummer Ed Blackwell and bassist Reggie Workman, plus Stanley Cowell on acoustic piano and Fender Rhodes. While Brown wrote the blissful coaster Vista, the five other compositions are well-chosen, starting with an inviting version of Cowell's "Maimoun" and an impressionistic and deeply meditative take on Stevie Wonder's "Visions"…

Pulsation
2025 much-needed repress. On May 27th 1983, drummer Masahiko Togashi and guitarist Masayuki Takayanagi, two pivotal figures in the Japanese free jazz scene that had been working together since the 1960's, performed and record this unique set at Zojoji Hall in Tokyo. At the time, Japanese jazz musicians were trying to find their own voice, welcoming creative elements coming in from the USA and Europe. The two musicians were at the fore-front of this generation, with Takayanagi developing his own …
Disc Rot
Long and intermittent running duo of Discrepant head honcho Gonçalo F Cardoso and Angela Valid's Alex Jones, with sometime collaborator Phil Laney aka Kenny Hosepipe joining in somewhere along the way, Hair & Treasure crossover from Sucata Tapes to Discrepant wax via 'Disc Rot'. Described by the duo, in their cryptic and scatological fashion, as "a fetid spread from the buttery catacombs of Hair & Treasure", one can only speculate on the mindset, if not for the scenario, for these file swap reco…
Avoiding Traps

Created using only Max/MSP and the Soviet-era LOMO MKE-100 microphone, this work marks a departure from Glonti’s traditional approach to sound. Filled with subtle yet unconventional ambient shifts , each track weaves tranquil textures, flavored with vocoder and vocal-driven sounds. Low Fuzz is an independent record label, musical platform and event series e…
A Warning to the Curious
"With the Fortean transmitter channelling everything from Hitchcock, Ken Russell phantasm and The Legacy to the music of the Amicus and Tigon film studios, pastoral hallucinations and veiled break beats, Boscoe summons up a BBC workshop of quirky magik, Lovecraftian atavistic shadows, suspense and whispered apparitional calls and dialogue from the supernatural archives. If you dug last year’s Night Blooming Flowers album collaboration between Drew Mulholland and Garden Gate on the same label, th…
Edaphon
In London I found a perfume that smelled like a brownie made entirely out of wet soil. It was inedible, but still very “cake”. “It’s our signature scent”, said the shopkeeper. But I used to make that cake as a child, with my child hands. I looked at the square bottle and it was me. Chocolate-like, but of the earth. Under our balcony I used to make garden stew in a clay pot with mud and pebbles. I stepped frantically on puffball mushrooms under a tree to make the steam. It didn't matter that the …
Trueno
Trueno is the result of the exploration of two lovers of the unusual, the experimentation, and the noise. The product of the meetings between Martí and Oxo during various sessions recorded in 2024 in Oxo's private studio in Madrid. Martí provided his modular synthesizer, and DIY sound generators and modifiers. A set of parts that transform electric signals into audio and deconstructs them to the smallest grains. Through synthesis processes, and the use of the sampler as an instrument, the sound …
Barbara e altri Carella
*2025 repress. 300 copies limited edition* Hard to find Funk / AOR masterpiece by Enzo Carella whose original edition usually sells for crazy prices on the second-hand market. Carella was an Italian singer-songwriter who is best remembered for his 1979 major hit Barbara, which is the opening track on Barbara e altri Carella, his second album. All songs on this release are written by Enzo Carella with lyrics by Italian poet Pasquale Panella, which later got famous for his collaboration with Lucio…
Drawn Into The Edge Effect
After many years of city life, Andrea Cichecki discovered deep inspiration for her music in the nature surrounding her new home. Residing at the boundary where countryside meets woodland, she lives right at the 'edge effect', a unique zone where different ecosystems converge, creating a diverse and vibrant natural beauty.
This album is an emotional exploration of Andrea's past, touching on themes of loss and letting go, while also conveying hope and the enduring cycle of renewal found in nature …
The Pool
The Pool represents Apta's most focused and compelling release to date. Based on the transformative plunge of a psychedelic experience, it maps both tentative footsteps into the unknown and euphoric, melodic bliss. Recorded using a combination of modular synthesis, Arp Odyssey, bass, guitar, Elektron grooveboxes and (for the first time in Apta's recorded history) a hint of vocals. There are wisps of melody from the outset, woven through skittering modular synths and saturated bass guitar. But it…
Sulle corde di Aries
*2025 repress. 300 copies limited edition* 1973’s Sulle Corde Di Aries was Franco Battiato's third release and showed his fascination for electronic, minimalist and systemic musics, as well as his third chapter in Battiato’s foray into esoteric pop. While the artist would venture further out into avant-garde terrain on subsequent releases, his early records enjoy a lyrical and playful spirit—eschewing traditional, song-based composition in favor of kosmische voyages. On Sulle Corde Di Aries, Bat…
Monument
*2025 stock* Monument from Swedish composer Lisa Stenberg was composed during residency in Athens with additional recordings in Osnabrück, originally commissioned by the art festival documenta 14, as part of a collaboration between KSYME CMRC, documenta 14, Elektronmusikstudion and Fylkingen, to restore and reactivate KSYME-CMRC’s rare synthesizer EMS Synthi 100 that had not been in working condition for more than 20 years.
The album features five tracks with the magnificent Synthi 100 in Athens…
Hör!-Spiel / Nekrologlog 1961 / Fantasmata 1960
Originally “pressed on behalf of the musical youth of Austria” in 1975, this is the second, even rarer pressing on Preiser Records from the late '70s (estimated). The Greek avant-garde composer Anestis Logothetis was noted for his pioneering tape techniques as well for developing his own notation system for composition that incorporated visual symbols meant to be interpreted by the performers. “'Hör!-spiel' / Nekrologlog 1961 / Fantasmata 1960” collects three of his most famous works, realized i…
Manchmal Vertrödelt Christa S. Den Tag
Rare original issue. Recorded by the husband and wife duo of Kurt Schwertsik and Christa Schrwertsik, “Manchmal Vertrödelt Christa S. Den Tag” is a dreamy gestalt, an album that borders Chanson, spoken-word, Ubu-esque passages, chanting and singing, against a variety of textures and jazz noir. Kurt Schwertsik (b. 1935) is an Austrian experimental/avant-garde composer. His music is mercurial and idiosyncratic with a refreshing lightness of touch. Though a pupil of Karlheinz Stockhausen, the compo…
An Einen Haushalt
Rare original issue, comes with a 12" insert; some copies also contains a postcard. Released in the mid '70s in Austria on the great Jeunesses Musicales Praesentiert label (Anestis Logothetis, Dieter Kaufmann, Otto M.Zykan, Wilhelm Zobl).

Konturen
Rare album from the little known composer Martin Bjelik. From the liner notes: “Consideration of concise, clear form, concentration and ‘interrelatedness’ of the thematic material: in some works, for example, this is presented at the beginning in the form of a melodic 'germ cell', which is then - binding for the entire piece - subjected to various modifications in the course of the musical development. The melodic structures are organised according to the principle of 'recesses'. The formation o…
Prophecy + Progress: UK Electronics 1978-1990
2025 stock Peripheral Minimal is proud to present, ‘V/A Prophecy + Progress: UK Electronics 1978 – 1990 LP’, a thirteen-track compilation that represents the burgeoning Electronic music scene in the UK. This isn’t simply another synthpop compilation, or some nostalgic frippery, but an eclectic mix of acts that were experimenting with newly available technology at a time when the punk scene had imploded and the music press was busy coining new genres as an attempt to continue its legacy, althoug…
Cadaveri Eccellenti (Colonna Sonora Originale)
The soundtrack for "Cadaveri eccellenti", composed by Piero Piccioni in 1976 for Francesco Rosi's film, is one of the most fascinating and unsettling works in Italian film music. Like the film itself, the music evokes a constant sense of tension, a dark atmosphere, and a profound unease that perfectly matches the narrative of this political thriller. “Cadaveri Eccellenti”, based on Leonardo Sciascia's novel “Il contesto”, is a masterpiece of Italian cinema that delves into themes of corruption, …
