Roundtrip
Tip, sold out at source!

This concert was recorded in 1977 at the Paris MIX festival (Théatre Récamier) organised by G.R.M and hosted by director François Bayle. An elegant mix of spiritual jazz and el…

Improvisations On The Grand Piano
Aleksandra Ionowa (1899–1980) was a Finnish-Russian artist, mystic, and largely self-taught pianist whose music feels like a transmission from another realm.
To Blue From Grey in May
Misha Panfilov, the Estonian composer whose name has become synonymous with space-age exotica and cinematic soundscapes, withdraws once more into the solitude of his studio and emerges with To Blue From Grey In May – a profound meditation on sound, time, and seasonal transformation. Recorded amid the ever-changing light and shadows of Tallinn between March and May 2025, this new album stands as a testament to complete immersion in the creative process. Here, Panfilov threads himself into the ver…

Blue Voice
Announcing Blue Voice, a playful yet unsettling 7-inch by Luke Calzonetti built from distorted cartoon voice-over outtakes — warped, abstract tone-poems that teeter between humor, chaos, and sonic sabotage. Pressed on white vinyl with a blue Pantone sleeve.
Invite Your Eye
With drummer Kenny Wollesen (Tom Waits, John Zorn, Norah Jones) and Dave Harrington (of electronic duo Darkside) guitar/bass/electronics, New York-based Swedish/Turkish saxophonist, composer, club-label owner Ilhan Ersahin captures the vibe of impromptu, cross-pollinating, and heavily grooving late-night jam sessions at Nublu, his “East Village Club where everything goes” (New York Times).
The telepathy and intuition that flows between these three musicians is one that has developed over many ye…
Fairport Convention
By far the most rock-oriented of Fairport Convention's early albums, this debut was recorded before Sandy Denny joined the band (Judy Dyble handles the female vocals). Unjustly overlooked by listeners who consider the band's pre-Denny output insignificant, this is a fine folk-rock effort that takes far more inspiration from West Coast '60s sounds than traditional British folk. Fairport's chief strengths at this early juncture were the group's interpretations, particularly in the harmony vocals, …
What We Did On Our Holidays
Sandy Denny's haunting, ethereal vocals gave Fairport a big boost on her debut with the group. A more folk-based album than their initial effort, What We Did on Our Holidays is divided between original material and a few well-chosen covers. This contains several of their greatest moments: Denny's "Fotheringay," Richard Thompson's "Meet on the Ledge," the obscure Joni Mitchell composition "Eastern Rain," the traditional "She Moves Through the Fair," and their version of Bob Dylan's "I'll Keep It …

Scomparire
Simon Balestrazzi's new solo effort calls for the ear to linger on things shrouded in fog, sounds meandering between vision and reality. Highlighted by the mysterious shots by Adriano Zanni you can now enter an awkward soundworld where nothing can be traced anymore. "Scomparire", to disappear, Vanishing. Pretending to vanish in a thick fog, never to be found again. The detachment from one’s identity. Leaving behind the constant paranoia of what is real and what is not. Leaving behind everything:…
Desert Smell
*200 copies limited edition* "Desert Smell", a precious collaborative album by Fabio Orsi and Massimo Amato, is fundamentally centred on suffused and dreamy ambient atmospheres, with inserts of ethereal female voice, suspended notes of reverberated piano, echoes in reverse, breaths of synthetic woodwinds, floating and enveloping pads, fragments of abstract sounds, sequencer phrases sometimes kept soberly in the background, and sometimes reminding of cosmic memories brought more energetically to …
