Last Blues
*150 copies limited release* "A mysterious folio of sonic snapshots, as much recaptured as composed, by Jon Dale’s project, Moth, in Adelaide in the late ’90s and early ’00s.
From the ready means of guitar, amp, and tape, a congruous but diverse selection of unnamed tracks emerge - musical moments borrowed from oblivion with the as yet unfulfilled good intention of returning them. Their sounds evoke abstract polaroids of winter seascapes flecked with spare, brittle detail, or the scaly-winged fl…
Selected Live Recordings
*150 copies limited release* "Music Of Transparent Means has always struck me as a particularly rock-reverent kind of minimalism, as though Alex Carpenter has removed all the excess baggage that rock has picked up over the decades and focused on its most important aspects: noise and intensity, energy and mayhem. There is, of course, a great tradition of rock minimalism, from the Velvet Underground through AC/DC to Rhys Chatham and Glenn Branca, on into Band Of Susans, Spacemen 3 and Loop, but Al…
One Night in Pelican
A night-time haunt in the backstreets of Soweto run by a well-known bootlegger should have been a prime zone for nefarious underworld activities. Instead, it nurtured an underground of a different kind. Soon after its opening in 1973, Club Pelican became a spot where musicians steeped in the tradition of South African jazz began to cook up experimental sounds inspired by communion, competition and the movements in funk and soul blowing in from the West. Located in an industrial park on the weste…
The Sea Maid's Music
*2022 stock* Adapted from Shakespeare's Midnight Summer Dream. Realized April-May 1990 using the Syter system developed within Groupe de recherches musicales by Daniel Terruggi. Composed by Jean Schwarz, vocals by Elise Caron
Golden Hearts Remembrance
Tip! *2022 stock* 'Recorded in 1997, Wadada Leo Smith's N'da Kulture has created a music that transcends all forms by integrating many of them into an amorphous yet deeply moving whole. This sextet, which uses Eastern and Western instruments, authors into being a kind of folk music for the emerging century, one that relies deeply on poetry, improvisation, subtleties in tone, timbre, and rhythm. The six pieces here reflect Smith's ongoing concern with marrying the vanguard jazz tradition he comes…
In Sadness, Silence and Solitude (expanded edition - 2021)
*Limited edition of 500 copies. 2022 stock* "Mammoth stone walls stretching high into the unknown, dank cellars stewn with bones and ashes. A chill in the lonely night wind disturbed by the utterance of arcane phrases. This is music guaranteed to at least bring about thoughts of mysticism, if it doesn't produce mystical states outright. This defines the term hauntingly beautiful.'In Sadness, Silence And Solitude', first released in ì 1997, is the fourth full-length album of raison d'être and is …
The Stains Of The Embodied Sacrifice (Expanded Edition 2021)
*2022 stock* "The Stains of the Embodied Sacrifice" is not only vibrating on the surface of your skin. It is alive and breathing, a creature with a knife that cut deep wounds in your body while your soul shatters for air. It is a psychosomatic and transgressive disease oppressed by a compulsive behaviour manifested in dualities - the one of your body and mind - and states of metamorphoses - mind becomes flesh become wounds become fluids become stains. Play it loud if you want to become the marty…
The Empty Hollow Unfolds (Expanded Edition 2021)
*2022 stock* "The ambience of grim desolation: With 'The Empty Hollow Unfolds', originally released 2000 on Cold Meat Industry, the ubiquitous Peter Andersson continues his exploration of internal desolation, be it of a spiritual base or purely of self. 'The Empty Hollow' in question seems to be the soul; a soul that has unfolded into a vast, blasted industrial landscape, littered with warehouse debris that solemnly clatters like wind chimes born of refuge. The darkened shadows cast on 'The Empt…
Unification
*2022 stock* After seven years one of the most experimental Bad Sector release, based on the concept of gravitational waves and the unification of forces of the nature, finally found its final form. The original 20 minutes program has been expanded into a full length CD, containing cold (and sci-fi) atmospheres: an amazing soundtrack for your mindtrip to the deepest places of the universe. A really challenging work, thousands of miles distant from the Ampos’ fuzzy harmonies, but strangely still …

Klimax Axis

Belong To The Wind
For all those who relate "maybe to the wind, because they can feel it, or dirt, because they can touch it. But nothing else." Like Bobby Cornett (aka Shane), we are all trying to find where we belong.
Belong To The Wind marks Forager Records' debut release: A lovingly curated collection of crooning psychedelic folk and soul songs gathered from American 45s of the 1970s. The compilation features 10 songs from 10 different acts, each with an indelible story of love, loss, loneliness, and an unrele…
Ethnic Expressions
Tip! Groovy, spiritual, and oh so, rare, this live album by drummer Roy Brooks is one of the best to ever come out of the spiritual jazz scene.

As one of the most talented drummers of any generation, Brooks would lead his own group, the Artistic Truth, and …

Sharks And The Female Form / Tight Fitting Armor
Sharks and the Female Form. The aesthetics and patterns of a woman’s physical form violently and tragically manipulated in the arts:
Painting“You have dared to torture the female who was so certain he would always be adored! You have scourged her, flogged her in all her pride; you have emptied her breasts, creviced her belly, blown up her buttocks, twisted her legs, battered her face! And over it all you have spread a noxious color, composed of all the reds of blood and the greens of putrefactio…
Reset / Rebis Periferiche
*2022 stock* For this release Massimo Magrini was joined by the Italian cyberzone-writer Tommaso Lisa. So the album was recorded using as conceptual reference Tom's "Italian Neuro-Poems" collection REBIS . Short spoken fragments of the texts are treated and inserted in a sonic structure built with minimal, strangely sincopated pseudo-rytmhs and sharp pulsing noises.The effect of those spcken texts is really disqieting, a very severe & obscure release , different from all previous Bad Sector albu…
One Hundred
*2022 stock* David Cunningham: guitar, footpedals, delays and kalimba. "When I'm having a bath I often feel strangely privileged that I can listen to music on the radio - a century ago I would have had to have a bigger bathroom and enough money to hire a string quartet." - David Cunningham
Yasuaki Shimizu: tenor saxophone, piano, delays. "He is a truly one and only performer, for power, spirit and pride. He has the ability to encompass any kind of music." - Haruomi Hosono about Yasuaki Shimizu
