Reissues

*2026 stock* Ultra loud heavy psychedelic rock from Colorado, late 60s, with loads of fuzz guitar all over. Dragonfly were actually a band called The Legend, who changed their name just when they were recording their self-titled album. Originally released by the Megaphone label in 1968, Dragonfly is a hard-psych classic, highly sought-after by collectors since day one. Back in 2012 we did the first official vinyl reissue and we now present a new, improved repress with expanded liner notes and ne…

*2026 stock* US heavy psych masterpiece from 1969. Powerful sound and recording with thunderous drums, piercing fuzz guitars and the incredible vocals of Steve Morgen. Formed as Morgen’s Dreame Spectrum in 1967 in NY, Morgen were one the first bands signed to ABC’s offshoot Probe Records (home also of Soft Machine in the US). Fuelled by the chemistry between ace guitar player Murray Shiffrin and creative songwriter/singer Steve Morgen, they recorded their self-titled album in 1968 but, much to t…

Ellison were a Montréal-based hard-rock/ heavy-blues band emerging from Québec’s late ’60s psychedelic scene. With just one album to their name, they left behind a powerful legacy and a rapidly growing cult following. The band’s origins trace back to 1967, when bassist Richard Arcand and vocalist Vincent Marandola played together in Johnny Peace. In 1969, guitarist Christian Vaeillant and drummer Robert Cager joined forces with them, forming Ellison. Closely tied to l’Association des Orchestres—…

Moby Dick were a fierce, English-singing rock band born in Naples in 1968, driven by zero compromises, and a motto that said it all: “no drugs, no bullshit—just music.”Blending Mediterranean fire with a hard-rock sound deeply inspired by Led Zeppelin, they carved out a reputation on the Italian live circuit before cutting a now-legendary, long-lost album in London in 1973. Formed in the Vomero district of Naples by  guitarist Toni Di Mauro and bassist Enzo Petrone, the band came together with dr…

Conceived by legendary (and controversial) producer Matthew Katz, Fifth Pipe Dream – Volume I is a groundbreaking psychedelic album from 1968 that blurs the line between compilation and concept record. Featuring a rotating cast of  Katz’s San Francisco Sound artists, it encapsulates the creativity and experimental spirit of the Bay Area at its lysergic peak. Rather than a traditional various-artists compilation, Fifth Pipe Dream was designed as a unified listening experience—multiple bands contr…

It would not be incorrect to claim that Zawinul was the first Weather Report album with regard to both its concept and sound since all protagonists are already present: Joe Zawinul, Wayne Shorter and Miroslav Vitouš. This album confirms that Zawinul was the primary creative generator of Weather Report, the connecting link between the band and Miles Davis’s keyboard-laden experiments on "In A Silent Way"; indeed, the composition in its complex orchestral form as composed by Zawinul is newly arran…

On Fragments: The Complete 1969 Salle Pleyel Concerts, The Cecil Taylor Unit detonates across two uncut Paris sets: a newly unearthed, vividly mastered document of Taylor, Sam Rivers, Jimmy Lyons and Andrew Cyrille stretching free jazz into an overwhelming, architectural storm of sound.

Black vinyl. Reeling in the weeks -- which felt like years -- after my first Current 93 album, I had started on the difficult second C93 album, Dogs Blood Rising. Having been asked to appear on both Top Of The Pops and The Old Grey Whistle Test 93 times in the same week after the release of Nature Unveiled, I realized that God was telling me that I had hit on a winning formula of Christian eschatology and Apocalyptic Christian texts over a Soundscape as cool as flies, but that I was missing the …

Blck vinyl. Current 93's first and last album, Nature Unveiled dragged together my obsessions, as I had decided to make a pop album that dealt with my primary fascinations: Christian apocalyptic and eschatological Christian texts. In my speed-ridden soul and mind, I thought I was reinventing The Ronettes, and that the two long sides of Nature Unveiled were A- and B-sides of a wall of soundhogs HIT! But the reality is that I was sharing a squat in Vauxhall with little annie anxiety, and hanging o…

Jackson C. Frank's only album, recorded in London in 1965 and produced by Paul Simon, with bonus tracks previously available only on CD and digitally.

"Ys" was nothing less than a unique masterpiece of the golden age of Italian progressive rock. Coming from the town of Naples, Balletto di Bronzo had already published in 1970 their debut "Sirio 2222", an ideal bridge among beat, prog and hard rock, when in '71 they were joined by keyboardist Gianni Leone, who completely revolutionized the sound of the band.The following year "YS" fell like a bolt from the blue on the Italian music scene. The songwriting is always unsettling, extremely intricate…

On Ferrum Sidereum, Zu stretch their jazz‑metal DNA into an 80‑minute instrumental odyssey: ritualistic riffs, industrial grit and prog‑honed structures orbit around a dense, meteoric core that feels both meticulously engineered and violently alive.

Reemerging three decades on, C.C.C.C.’s Love & Noise hits vinyl for the first time, a still‑devastating artefact where Mayuko Hino’s charged electronics and Hiroshi Hasegawa’s Moog storms turn harsh sonics into something crushing, psychedelic and strangely exultant.

Long whispered about and barely seen, Whitehouse’s Psychopathia Sexualis finally claws its way out of 1982’s creamy‑vinyl underworld, reborn on CD as a fully remastered, meticulously documented legacy edition for the noise faithful and the merely morbidly curious.

A blazing chapter of Zu’s early history returns. Originally released in 2002, Igneo is back in print.

Considered among the all-time classic psychedelic recordings, the Ultimate Spinach ’68 self titled debut is unearthed in its unfathomably rare mono form! The unique blend of psych, jazz, rock, Gregorian vocals and Baroque instrumentation sets Ultimate Spinach apart from anything released at the time. It includes the now famous “(Ballad of the) Hip Death Goddess,” an 8:12 classic featuring the eerie, haunting vocals of Barbara Hudson, an oft covered staple of the genre.It was legendary record pro…

It was legendary record producer Alan Lorber that came up with the concept of "The Bosstown Sound" -- "The Sound Heard 'Round The World" to market and promote the best and brightest of the Bean Town sixties psychedelic scene. (Boston's key groups at the time included Orpheus, Beacon Street Union, Ultimate Spinach, Chamaeleon Church and others). The Ultimate Spinach, arguably the finest of them all, produced magnificent examples of surreal psychedelic record-making, now prized by crate-diggers an…

Limited edition of 500 copies with a unique psychedelic day-glo cover, more historical photos and updated and detailed liner notes by Dungen guitarist Reine Fiske. “One of Sweden’s most obscure psychedelic treasures from the late 1960’s. Imagine vintage Cream and Syd Barrett-led Pink Floyd morphing into a primeval Hawkwind sonic brain attack and you’re on the right track. They just may be the most impressive examples of vintage Swedish psychedelia you’re ever likely to hear. ”

Coming a couple of years after High Peak Selections, Early Music was the second 'studio' full-length album by Jon Collin. More spare and sparse than its predecessor, both in atmosphere and presentation (the track names are simply numbers), it's also perhaps more focused and consistent in terms of sound and mood (as well as instrumental set-up and recording locale). While High Peak Selections and later recordings feature environmental and external sounds bleeding in and out of recordings, the onl…

Recorded in churches and industrial buildings in the the North of England, and originally released on Winebox Press in 2013, High Peak Selections was the first full-length vinyl release by Jon Collin. Across its six mostly improvised tracks, it showcases an artist somewhat at odds with much of the wave of fingerpicking acoustic guitarists that was in the middle of breaking around this time. While the base technique here is still fingerstyle, his use of various preparations, metal slides, feedbac…

Make Up, the fourth album from pioneering Japanese rock outfit Flower Travellin’ Band, captures the group at a point of bold experimentation and artistic growth. Released in 1973, the record was conceived as a deliberate hybrid of live performance intensity and studio-crafted exploration, offering listeners an immersive portrait of a band expanding its sonic and creative horizons. Following the band’s return from Canada, Flower Travellin’ Band set out to build an album that balanced raw concert …

Wewantsounds continues its reissue program of Bob Shad's cult jazz label, Mainstream Records, with Hadley Caliman's superb 1972 album, Iapetus. Recorded in LA and featuring a heavyweight lineup of West Coast players including Todd Cochran, Woody “Sonship” Theus, Luis Gasca, and Victor Pantoja, the majority of the album was composed by Todd Cochran (aka Bayeté) soon after he had composed Bobby Hutcherson's Blue Note classic, Head On. A true hidden treasure, it is reissued here on vinyl for the fi…

Renowned jazz trumpeter Kenny Dorham, one of the most underrated virtuosos in jazz history, invites listeners to revisit his landmark 1961 Blue Note masterpiece Whistle Stop – a bluesy, swinging hard bop session that captures the golden era of modern jazz. Recorded on January 15, 1961, at Rudy Van Gelder's legendary studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, Whistle Stop showcases Dorham's original compositions performed by an elite quintet: Hank Mobley on tenor saxophone, Kenny Drew on piano, Paul…

Aki Tsuyuko's Empty Talk dropped in 2017, not 2016 like some sites say. Japan release, self-released and through Enban, limited to 400 vinyl copies. Art by Ippei Matsui, silk-screened jacket-cool touch, makes each copy feel a bit unique. Mastered by Ztom Motoyama, recorded at Ongakushitsu. Feels niche, but that's the point. Album's under Electronic, but calling it just that is lazy. It's Ambient, yeah, but also Abstract, Experimental. Like someone took field recordings from a half-remembered dre…

Giuseppe Chiari's Intervalli, a twelve-part piano work written between 1950 and 1956, before he joined Fluxus, recorded complete for the first time by Reinier van Houdt.

*30 copies limited edition* The CDr is contained in a black cardboard envelope measuring 13x13 cm. about (250 grams thick) with a 10x10 cm sticker on the front.

East Two + 5 comprises previously unreleased tracks from one of Sun Ra's most productive periods: 1972–73. Those two hectic years saw Sun Ra recording numerous albums, staging concerts, teaching at Berkeley, acting in and composing the score for a full-length movie, embarking on a multi-album (though ill-fated) major label deal, and touring the U.S. and Europe. The title track, "East Two," is one of two pieces on this album originating at a two-day October 1972 session at Chicago's Streeterville…

*200 copies limited edition* Originally released in 2009, Capri is a concept album composed of fragmented vignettes, lost minutes and scenes from an idyllic imagining. A collection of brief moments, suspended shimmers, and frail settings, Capri was never meant to be more than its own thin veneer; a naked and subtle wash of saturated and semi-transparent colors, rolling as gently as ocean waves against rocky beaches, of fading afternoon sunlight, of momentary experience. Peaceful yet isolated, qu…

Black Editions presents the expanded and definitive edition of White Heaven's brilliant third album Next to Nothing. Originally released in 1994 by Tokyo's Noon Disk, the full album was only ever available in a limited vinyl pressing of 250 copies. Since then, it has become one of the most sought-after artifacts of the '90s Japanese underground and is regarded as a highpoint of Japanese psychedelic rock.   Led by vocalist, songwriter and conceptualist You Ishihara, the album finds the group in a…

Tip! *80 copies limited edition* The journey together started 2017 with “SC00” the debut release of Scatterwound featuring two tracks recorded during their Microphonics + N Tour in 2010. Followed by their live debut as Scatterwound in 2017, when they played at the Moving Noises Festival in Germany at Christuskirche Bochum. After that show they did a tour and they also played at the Roadburn Festival in 2018. We documented most of those shows on CD and Tape releases. Right before their debut show…

‘Warm Waves’ first appeared in 2020, ten years after Turn On The Sunlight’s debut self-titled album was first released in Japan. During that decade, Turn On The Sunlight’s Jesse Peterson and Mia Doi Todd welcomed their first child and co-founded a music venue in Los Angeles. When performance spaces were required to close at the start of the pandemic, Jesse’s focus shifted back towards home recording. Since ‘Warm Waves,’ five more Turn On The Sunlight albums have followed (including ‘Drives To Th…

Formed in 1967 in Detroit, the band Mystic Siva consisted of four teenagers - none older than fifteen - who released a single self-titled album, recorded in a single day in 1970 at the band's self-managed V.O. Studios. The lineup consisted of Dave Mascarin on drums, lead vocals, the original composer, and creator of the album cover; Al Tozzi on guitar, who co-wrote five of the eleven tracks with Mascarin; Marc Heckert on B-3, organ, and vocals; Art Thienel on bass and vocals.

Musically, YaHoWa13 go it on their own, with Octavius, Sunflower, Djinn, and Rhythm collaborating with Electron, who supplies powerful lead vocals. What's here is a collection of powerful rock songs that will echo in your consciousness, like the opening track, 'Edge of a Dream,' and the refrain 'I want to see/What's going on.' The guttural nature of Electron's vocal sound may recall the name of Beefheart to some, and Electron is occupying the same unconsciousness, free in the communal slipstream…

On Hidden Fire, Sun Ra turns the late‑’80s Arkestra into a digital seance, using Yamaha DX7 shards, strings and haunted vocals to swap cosmic swing for dissonant ritual, opening one last, ominously glowing portal in his Saturnian saga.

On Balladyna, Tomasz Stanko leads Tomasz Szukalski, Dave Holland and Edward Vesala through seven originals that weld lyrical, Slavic melancholy to volcanic free‑jazz undercurrents, forging a 1970s European classic that still feels startlingly alive.

Arvo Pärt's 1999 album with several versions of Für Alina for solo piano and Spiegel im Spiegel for violin or cello and piano, two of his tintinnabuli pieces, on vinyl for the first time.

Electronic lullabies and folk songs from Ethiopia! A landmark recording from Ethiopia’s vibrant cassette era of the 1980s, Resonance of Time features pioneering composer Wesenyeleh Mebreku reimagining Ethiopian folk melodies through the humble circuitry of an early Casiotone keyboard. Historically, the works featured on Resonance of Time (የጊዜ ቃና Yegizie Kana) stand as quiet documents of Ethiopian musical memory. Many of the original songs included in this release emerged during important moments…

Huge Tip!!! Mount Athos, known as the «Holy Mountain,» is a monastic peninsula in northeastern Greece, central to Eastern Orthodox monasticism for over a millennium. Its twenty monasteries house around 2,000 monks dedicated to prayer and worship, which songs have echoed across the Aegean Sea for centuries, heard only by visiting pilgrims, isolated from conventional time and global events. After several years of research, and several visits to the retired community, we are happy to present our ne…
