Sequence
Following his trio debut ‘Triptych’ last year, trumpeter Matthias Lindermayr presents his duo record ‘Sequence’ with long-time companion and ECM Recording Artist Matthieu Bordenave on tenor saxophone. In contrast to its technical title, ‘Sequence’ is a very lyrical record, sacral at times. Like two figure skaters, the voices gracefully glide along and whirl around in perfect synch, always sensing where the other one is going. A fitting comparison also, as the recording session was equally exhaus…
Roger A Ti Wawa
Ultra rare album reissue for the first time Worldwide. Fantastic Proto-Zouk from Georges and Pierre-Edouard Decimus.

Nostalgia Por Mesozóica
Tip! **300 copies** Nikolaienko's “Nostalgia Por Mesozóica” is an exploration of "experimental exotica" consisted of synthesized tropical attributes — an artificial landscape isolated behind the glass frame. Reminiscent of recording techniques and sonorities ubiquitous in the 60’s and 70’s, it could conceivably have been intended as a soundtrack for the Mesozoic Era exhibition at your favorite Natural History museum.

No More Lamps In The Morning
Josephine Foster's "No More Lamps In the Morning" is a new folk route, a stripped down starsailor vector connecting heller to highwater. Foster, on nylon string guitar, and husband Victor Herrero, accompanying on Portuguese guitar, together weave intimate readings of songs spanning Foster's songwriting career including selections from recent albums "This Coming Gladness" (2008) and "I'm a Dreamer" (2013) and back to Born Heller (2004). Foster's new route is a free, chromatic music, a tuneful mon…
Fictions
*In process of stocking* Jean-Jacques Birgé and Lionel Martin decide one day to improvise from sentences of Fictions by Jorge Luis Borgès taken at random… This record testifies to an alchemy, two musicians who have never played together, plug in the microphones and tell, tell, find each other… A testimony engraved on vinyl of a short but intense moment. Silk-screened and numbered sleeve signed Ella & Pitr.
Lionel uses two loopers and effects pedals, his Keilwerth saxophone being sounded by a cel…
Obstacle #79: Memory Is Current
Tip! * Edition of 250. In process of stocking * Obstacle #79: Memory Is Current offers a sequence of works for player piano, a device which captured Rick Myers’ imagination in 2017. Divining a method from mathematical measurements and intuitive drawing systems, Myers obstructed piano rolls using adhesive tape. Performed in this altered state on a player piano in the hallway of Easthampton Machine and Tool in Easthampton, Massachusetts, the music embedded in the rolls was extricated from its hist…

Negro Humor
Running counter to the monopoly of white representation in music, Radio Diaspora translates the African diaspora through free jazz experimentalism and free improvisation. The musicians in the duo, Romulo Alexis and Wagner Ramos, reverberate the signs of blackness through zones of sonorous intensity, giving new meanings to the Afro-descendant musical experience. In ‘Negro Humor’, their tenth album, the duo investigates the dichotomy of humor to again reverberate their struggle through music again…

On the edge of wh…

Group Show
**Edition of 300 copies, numbered** Group Show is a project and installation that shows an extensive collection of ‘vernacular’ vinyl records with large groups of people on the cover. The awkward impossibility of photographing these choirs, regional ensembles and folklore bands and the typology of photographs that has comes out of it, is a longtime fascination for Erik Kessels. It even made him create a multi-media project out of this. The enormous volume and collection of records resulted in an…
