Konkan Dance
Following in the footsteps of the landmark 1966 double-quartet recording by Joe Harriott and John Mayer, Indian born musician Amancio D’Silva produced some of the most adventurous and sophisticated recordings within the canon of ‘indo-jazz’, a term used to define a pioneering east meets west synthesis that reflected the shifting musical and cultural landscape of post-war Britain. An experiment which reached a pinnacle in 1972 with D’Silva’s seminal recording Dream Sequence by Cosmic Eye (The Rou…
Processione sul Mare
A stunning artefact from 1970s Italian scene, this first ever vinyl reissue of Toni Esposito’s incredible and sinfully overlooked 1976 LP, "Processione sul Mare", ripples with mind-blowing polyrhythms and genre-defiant tonal interventions, as it intertwines the ecstatic with free-flowing jazz, prog-rock, and experimental gestures. A true revelation rescued from depths of obscurity by a visionary artist who worked with everyone from Luciano Cilio to Don Cherry, it can’t be missed.

His outstand…

Agora' 2
Tip! After the moderate success of the debut album "Live in Montreux", Agorà published their first and only studio work in 1976. The possibilities offered by the recording studio seemed more congenial to their proposal, which turns out to be a deeply matured LP, technically flawless and with songs that still belong to the best Italian jazz-rock, with a more intense jazz component at the expense of the progressive one.Unfortunately, both "Agorà 2" and the single "Cavalcata Solare" taken from thi…
The Glitter of the City
** Heavyweight 180g LP with tip-on sleeve. LP with printed inner sleeve with liner notes & pics ** As private pressings go, Ron Everett's 'Glitter of the City' is certainly one of the most obscure, controversial and mysterious of them all. Until now, the name Ron Everett has been practically unheard of outside his native Philadelphia, and only devoted funk & jazz enthusiasts have been aware of his album, originals of which are owned by literally just a handful of collectors scattered across the …

Ward 24 / Trademark
A one-time pressing of 150 copies only, on thick 180g-vinyl, with two inserts and download-code included. Gad Whip blend avant-garde sensibilities with a contemporary take on the place where D.I.Y. culture meets post-punk, hints of deconstructed garage rock and interstellar voyaging through sweat-drenched waking dreams. Immediate, powerful, confounding and kept in place by wry, sometimes observational, vocals that recall Jason Williamson and Mark E. Smith.
Cottonwoodhill
****Remastered from the original master tapes, Clear vinyl reissue** ** A limited edition re-issue of the legendary 1971 debut album by Brainticket that is widely considered a landmark psychedelic masterpiece!Being as LSD was first developed in a laboratory in Basel, it is perhaps no coincidence that one of the most "far out" albums of all time was made by this Swiss band (no small feat, given the competition!). Brainticket's 1971 debut, Cottonwoodhill, begins normally enough with two fine psych…
Psychonaut
**Remastered from the original master tapes, Clear vinyl reissue** 1972s Psychonaut, by the Swiss-based Brainticket, is early seventies space rock at its finest. While the bands debut album, 1971s Cottonwoodhill, was a heavily acid-laden affair dominated by droning organ, disturbing vocals and a collection of cacophonic sound effects (causing it to carry a warning label and be banned in several countries) for their second effort, band-founder Joël Vandroogenbroeck brought in a completely new lin…
