Live At The Melkweg 25.9.87
100 copies. C60 cassette with improved master and fullcolor print on the cassette but original printwork. Los Angeles, September 1987. Savage Republic are in the middle of their first European tour when they land at Amsterdam's legendary Melkweg. What gets captured on eight-track tape that night is pure alchemy: tribal post-punk, cosmic surf, oil drum industrial and guitars droning like desert prayers.
Founded in 1981 by Bruce Licher and Mark Erskine in the underground parking garages of UCLA - …
Fuchsia Swing Song
Special Time-Limited Offer "One of the greatest modern moments on Blue Note – ever! From the cover, to the compositions, to the playing on the set – the whole album crackles with an unbelievable fire that was hardly ever matched again. A young Sam Rivers leads a quartet that includes Jaki Byard on piano, Ron Carter on bass, and Anthony Williams on drums – coming together in a sound that's got lots of sharp edges, yet which also beats with an undeniably swinging heart. Rivers blows incredibly on…

Avventure Lontane
Mostly known for his intense drone performances and as bass/guitarplayer for the ultrasonic noise trio MIR, Papiro seems to slip into a different persona when left unattended with a bunch of old Synthesizers and the privilege of overdub. The nine tracks show Papiro’s affinity for melodies and complex arrangements and will please followers of early seventies electronica like Walter Carlos (A Clockwork Orange), Cluster or Bruce Haack. The LP comes in a silkscreened glow-in-the-dark cover.
Live in Kallio
On Live in Kallio, Markus Holkko Quartet turns a Helsinki neighborhood into a pressure chamber of color and rhythm, blending proggy contours, retro-fusion heat and modern Nordic lyricism into long-form live explorations that feel both heady and immediate, cerebral yet unafraid to let the groove bite.
Reich/Richter
On Reich/Richter, Steve Reich joins Ensemble Intercontemporain and conductor George Jackson for a single 37‑minute arc of pulsed colour, a chamber‑orchestral score conceived in dialogue with Gerhard Richter’s moving stripes, where pattern, blur, and return become musical form.
Unity
** Special Time-Limited Offer ** Unity is one of the great organ records precisely because it refuses to behave like one. Larry Youngbrings the Hammond into a post‑bop, modal context alongside Woody Shaw on trumpet, Joe Henderson on tenor saxophone, and Elvin Jones on drums. The tunes – including originals by Young and his bandmates – are harmonically rich and structurally intriguing, offering the soloists wide latitude. Young’s playing is astonishing: he voices chords in unexpected clusters, sp…
The Figure In The Carpet

Following Domestic Scene (2024, Feeding Tube Records), The Figure in the Carpet confirms a body of work that continues to expand with rigor, subtlety, and an originality rarely encountered.
Here, sound is not merely gesture or melody; it is also fragment, remainder, residue — noise t…

In 2007 he formed the ambient quartet Nerae, but he has now left the group to focus on his solo music.

The Silent Trumpets
The Silent Trumpets carries all the hallmarks for which Rapoon is revered: deep, immersive drones, gentle melodic movement, and an understated sense of ritual that slowly unfolds across the listening experience. From the opener “Real Life” to the luminous closer “Stars Over the Northern Skies,” the album moves through shadow and light, tension and release, crafting a world that feels both intimate and vast.
Pieces like the title track “The Silent Trumpets” and “I Love You” blend warmth with a ce…

Lub
Lub arrives like a controlled implosion. On this debut full‑length, SOF - a Berlin‑based Portuguese artist steeped in metal, noise and the more hostile edges of underground sound culture - treats the album format as a site of self‑preservation through destruction. Rather than slotting into any familiar subgenre lane, these tracks rip up the social contracts of song form: riffs don’t resolve where they “should,” structures don’t flatter attention spans, and there is no chorus waiting to offer cat…
O Africanto Dos Tincoas
The third album by the legendary Bahian trio, originally released in 1975 on Odeon and finally back on vinyl. One of the most spiritually charged records to emerge from Brazil during the military dictatorship years. Hold on to your hats. Os Tincoãs - Mateus Aleluia, Heraldo and Dadinho - came from Cachoeira, in the Recôncavo Baiano, a region steeped in Afro-Brazilian traditions where Candomblé terreiros and Catholic chapels existed side by side, where sacred rhythms passed from generation to gen…
Spilla
Black Truffle is thrilled to announce Spilla, the second album from Nantes-based Ensemble Nist-Nah, 48 minutes of music for Gamelan, drum kits, wood and metal percussion instruments, and plucked strings that will surely count as one of the most electrifying records you hear this year. Founded by the Australian drummer/percussionist Will Guthrie in 2019, continuing the explorations begun in solo form on Nist-Nah (Black Truffle, 2020), the ensemble (eight or nine core members with occasional guest…

Northern Michigan Snowstorms
"Northern Michigan Snowstorms" is an auditory journey that captures the serene beauty and introspective magic of stormy winters nights in the countryside. Each track transports listeneres to cozy cottages nesteld in tall pines. Music that mirrors the serene solitude of a snowy evening, where time slows, allowing the listener to be enveloped in a cocoon of sonic wonder. Ambient layers mimic the gentle wishpering of the wind through snow covered branches. Eight tracks of blurry loops, soft pads, a…
