Das Leben Chopins Und Andere Ton-Dichtungen
A rare double LP from 1988 presenting a comprehensive collection of "sound poems" by Gerhard Rühm (born 1930), one of Austria's most important experimental artists and a founding member of the revolutionary Wiener Gruppe (Vienna Group). Released by Edition Block in Berlin, this recording documents Rühm's groundbreaking work at the intersection of literature, music, and visual art, featuring compositions created between 1978 and 1984 that exemplify his unique approach to what he terms "auditory p…
The Albums: 1968-1972
2025 stock When they formed in 1968, Pentangle were hailed as Folk’s first supergroup, fusing elements of jazz and underground music and comprising the twin guitar/songwriting talents of Bert Jansch and John Renbourn with bassist Danny Thompson, drummer Terry Cox and singer Jacqui McShee.
Between 1968 and 1972, Pentangle issued six albums – five on legendary Folk label Transatlantic and a swansong release on Reprise. Their debut, The Pentangle (1968), was hailed as a Folk Rock classic and charte…

Known for his groundbreaking work in the world of horror and progressive rock, Simonetti brings back one of his most thrilling and unforgettable scores in a definitive version that fans and collectors have long awaited.

Music For Desert Reboot
Knockout! Thrillingly arid, exploratory rhythm trips on a way more austere, isolationist tip than anything we’ve heard from Trjj/Trii/Trj/Tri previously. Sounds like Liima re-scoring Dead Man or some shit! The music was made for a student film that was in development for four years before being aborted when the directors realised they lacked either the chops or the budget or both to realise their vision. There were three substantially different scripts, but the basic setting stayed the same: “a …
Kukin Kaappiaan Selässään Kantaa
*2025 stock* At the turn of the millennium, Pori Finland based group of adventurers Moon Fog Prophet, born in 1994, arrived at a crossroads. The band had just wrapped up their fourth album Taunting Tin Bells Through The Mammal Void that was in its narrative character, exaggerative scope and dynamic richness a work of art taken to extreme proportions. What next? The answer was found from the more minimalistic end of the spectrum. The singer-keyboardist Mika Rättö began to take more responsibility…
When I sing, I slip into the microphone. Into that void, I bring comrade "prayers", then, turning to face the outside, together we explode
Like on the early solo Haino album that shares the group’s name (released on P.S.F. in 1993), the instrumentation swims in reverb (the use of which Akiyama recalls as ‘a kind of point of the band’), often obscuring the instrumental sources. On the short opening piece, a distant reed instrument arcs long buzzing melodies over a bed of cymbals and gongs, like a psychedelic take on Tibetan music. The epic second part, occupying almost 50 minutes, begins as a splayed, near-formless cloud of electric…
Into The Heart Of Love
*Warehouse find. 2025 stock* Emotional Rescue and Woo came together across 3 reissue albums and 1 bonus 7”, introducting the Clive and Mark Ives music to a myriad of new fans. The crowning release was undoubtedly the pressing on to vinyl first time of Into The Heart Of Love, as well as a full CD release following the exact track list of the original previously cassette only album. A joyous, uplifting ode to love in all it’s forms, the trials and tribulations and ultimately the triumphs are all …
Steel Wound
Twenty years after its original release, Ben Frost's "Steel Wound" returns as a testament to isolation transformed into transcendence. Born from solitude at a derelict cabin on Australia's windswept coast, this masterpiece of textural guitar manipulation still sounds like a transmission from another world—one where beauty emerges from the marriage of abandonment and obsession.
Profondo Rosso Soundtrack 50th Anniversary
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Profondo Rosso, Rustblade proudly releases a deluxe double CD edition of this iconic soundtrack in a brand-new version.
The existential and atmospheric impact of Dario Argento’s films stems from the perfect fusion of masterfully crafted visuals and an unforgettable auditory experience. Among the most striking elements of this universe are the scores by Goblin—once heard, they are impossible to forget. Profondo Rosso is a shining example: with its synth-heavy …
Tunggak Semi
“Tunggak Semi” is the third album from Indonesian musician and producer Bambang Pranoto. Originally released in 2000, it’s an exemplary slice of what has become his signature style, a dream-like meditation on aspects of nature, combining elements of accordion, acoustic guitar, flute and percussion. The compositions cross eastern and western notation to inhabit a world of their own, a world between worlds, where harmonies reflect the beauty and joy of nature.
Bambang had a rather atypical entry i…
Untilted
Autechre, the pioneering British electronic duo of Sean Booth and Rob Brown, continues their illustrious catalogue of reissues with the long-awaited return of “Untilted” (originally released 2005) as a deluxe 2LP set via Warp Records. Out of print for more than 15 years, “Untilted” re-emerges as a crucial touchstone in the ever-unfolding journey of experimental electronica.
Marked by eight monumental tracks, “Untilted” found Autechre pushing their sound to its most uncompromising and abstract: t…
Quaristice
Autechre albums come accompanied by their own set of instructions, demanding your undivided attention, a good sound system and a sufficiently high volume to illuminate proceedings as they were initially intended. They also require a considerable ingestion period, allowing enough time for your brain and senses to catch up with the seemingly impenetrable configurations and sonic algorithm's that seem to unfold before you. Those listeners who aren't willing to invest their time and participation in…
Incunabula
Having first emerged onto a post-acid house 1993, Incunabula was released as part 7 of the now legendary Artificial Intelligence series of albums and compilations from Warp. A series that gave us early records from artists who went on to sculpt the electronic landscape both in and out of the club. Being lined up against such contemporaries as Black Dog Productions (Balil and Plaid) Aphex Twin under his Polygon Window guise, Richie Hawtin's FUSE project, Speedy J, B12 & on the series' closing com…
Inventions
Thumbing through the back pages of German electronic music, Bureau B uncovers another hidden gem from the Sky Records archive: 'Inventions', the 1983 collaboration between Adelbert von Deyen and Dieter Schütz. Fusing expansive kosmische textures with biting rock guitars, motorik rhythms, and the growl of '80s synth-pop, the duo conjure a sonic singularity which still sounds like the future today. Compact yet cosmic, 'Inventions' distils ambient drift and experimental edge into taut, three-minute…
Voyage
Bureau B once again dive into the Sky archive, unearthing another overlooked masterpiece long due for rediscovery. Originally released in 1985, 'Voyage' finds Dieter Schütz venturing beyond his Berlin School roots into a realm of lo-fi immediacy and New Age naivety. Every instrument is played by Schütz himself, except for the drums on "Above", which are performed with syncopated zeal by Michael Fecker. While its textured synthscapes and wistful melodies may echo the aesthetics of 2010s Vaporwave…
Ich Suche Dein Gesicht
Berlin-based project Silberstreif announces the release of their new album Ich suche dein Gesicht, available now on Bandcamp. With a name that translates to “silver lining,” Silberstreif crafts music that reflects both fragility and resilience, weaving together textures of ambient, electronic, and experimental sound.
Ich suche dein Gesicht (“I am searching for your face”) is more than an album: it is a sonic exploration of intimacy, distance, and the fleeting nature of human connection. Across…
Flyin' Shoes
This is another stalwart collection from Townes Van Zandt, and not a dud in the bunch. The melodies here are strong, the lyrics full of Van Zandt's razor sharp insight, and the production is sparse and to the point, bringing to mind the inconspicuous polish of High, Low and in Between. The feel here is a balance between folk and country, with Van Zandt's voice and guitar up front, letting the songs speak for themselves. The tunes are full of heartbreak and hopelessness, making it a great album t…
Live Houston Music Theatre '67
A rare time capsule from the birth of psychedelic rock is finally being unveiled: The 13th Floor Elevators – Live at Houston Music Theatre '67. Captured during the height of the band’s creative fire, this extraordinary live recording transports listeners to 1967, when Roky Erickson’s haunting vocals, Tommy Hall’s hypnotic electric jug, and Stacy Sutherland’s jagged guitar helped shape the sound of a generation. Recorded in Houston at a fever pitch of cultural and musical revolution, this set pre…
Tokyo '81
*2025 stock* Elemental Music proudly announces the release of "Woody Shaw – Tokyo '81," a remarkable newly discovered live recording from one of jazz’s most visionary trumpet players. Captured on December 7, 1981, in Tokyo, this previously unreleased performance reveals Shaw at the height of his creative powers, supported by his all-star quintet: Steve Turre (trombone, percussion), Mulgrew Miller (piano), Stafford James (bass), and Tony Reedus (drums).
Boasting Shaw's signature melodic inventive…
