**Very rare original 1975 LP** few copies, still sealed, of this original library album, issued by the legendary RCA SP Series no less than 45 years ago by Antonino Riccardo Luciani, which includes eleven exclusive compositions, full of stark sounds that often move into atonal areas – sometimes electronic, sometimes spacey – and seemingly repeated using tape tricks or other effects, so that a number of tunes loop back on themselves in a really cool way

Cut A Crooked Track
* Edition of 200 copies. Stamped white labels, postcard attached to the cover, insert * Six new tracks from Mark Anderson and Mark Sadgrove, New Zealanders now based in Japan. Obtuse duo skronk starting out on a fairly reasonable note with 'Scantling' but then slowly deconstructing the song format track by track. The Quemada description of their very underrated 2015 12" makes perfect sense on at least the A-side, "image a Back from the Grave band that was weened on Operation of Sonne and fronted…

Dark Ballads
* Edition of 300 * Dark Ballads is the obvious title of this LP, as if this music pre-existed the duo that, without any other choice, was formed around it. Since then, Giotis Damianidis and Audrey Lauro have continued to advance along this straight line that runs through their inner landscapes.
Their music creates a "stretched" emotional space, which evolves in slow motion and captures the fragility of the tone, the tension of the path. Each stage of the record is a mineral evocation of the inti…
Istantanee vol.1
* Limited Edition 300 copies High Quality 180gr Black Vinyl * These musical compositions – which I called Istantanee (snapshots) – were realized with sonic materials issued from experimental studies on the expressive capabilities of the instrument arranged in such a way as to take account of the rhythmic and harmonic peculiarities of the material itself.
To maintain the spontaneity of the original musical idea, each snapshot was recorded three or four times on different kinds of tape – the timbr…

Anna-Lisa & Rosanne
* Each cassette is handmade and unique. The cases have been made in gravure printing. More precisely: They are line etchings with oil paint on handmade paper. The process also uses a titanium-zinc plate and a paint made of diluted tar. And finally, to match the music, the whole thing wanders through an acid bath * In the heat of summer, Nasssau staggered in a stuffy bus through parts of Europe. They pant in Dusseldorf, they splashed in Hamburg, they rejoiced in Brussels and they mumbled in Antwe…
Throat Mask
The self-titled debut from Throat Mask collects four improvisations from the duo that are built around random processes and hover constantly between collapse and coalescence. The recording sees Nathan Gray attempt to guide his unruly stack of sputtering and chiming digital automations while T. Kowalski responds with fm, digital and analog synthesis and sparsely gestural midi drums.Side A keeps returning to Gray’s voice, occasionally it’s recognisable but more often it’s faltering or shredded by …
