“Ground breaking, genre defying instrumental trio, ANIMALS AS LEADERS have announced their highly anticipated new, fifth album, 'Parrhesia'. Their first new full length album since 2016's 'The Madness Of Many'.”

Lotte Anker, soprano alto and tenor saxophones / Rodrigo Pinheiro, piano / Hernani Faustino, double bass.

"Improvised music is one of the few fields where something like this can happen: having a new band with people we never imagined together...

"Subliminal Sounds presents the spell-binding debut album from Swedish femme psych-folk/rock delight AnnaMy. Top-notch songwriting and stellar musicianship in a style reminiscent of the masters of the early 1970s such as Fairport Convention, Pentangle, Mellow Candle, Trees, Comus, Vashti Bunyan, Linda Perhacs and others. Yet AnnaMy performs in an unmistakable style all of her own that is both fully rooted in the now and timeless. Full electric band setting with guitars, bass, organ, flute, cello, drums...

"Strange but classic rare album from the psychedelic era, this was recorded in the Ohio state back in 1968. We should call this hippie, West Coast psychedelic folk-rock with Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane and Quicksilver influences. The album contains a good number of originals plus a few covers like 'Hey Joe' or the fantastic remake of 'Violets of Dawn'. Forty years after its original release, this is now reissued officially for the first time.” Label says: "In 1968, a group of talented college...

“Taking the electric music of Miles Davis as its starting point, Anthropology Band is about finding the atmosphere through a deep rhythm, a searing blues run, a delicate melody, or a cascading solo statement. Band leader Martin Archer has kept the music as simple as possible – often driven by the bassline – and the structures loose, to enable this who’s who of UK creative musicians to let the music breathe in a different way each time it is played. There are multiple chordal instruments in the centre of...

"Now under the leadership of Dario Iscaro, this Prog Fusion outfit presents personnel changes in its line-up (now consisting of guitar, bass, drums, & trumpet). The band also shows an about face in its musical direction, albeit without losing essence...

This is a high-quality pirate edition of this never-reissued, very obscure Krautrock rarity.

"From 1971. A very strange 'paycheck' project for Conny Plank and Achim Reichel's Gorilla Musik production company. Wonderland-esque German rock with...

Anyone's Daughter were a late-period symphonic-rock band, releasing their first album in early 1979 on Brain, just as the scene was beginning to wind down a bit. They were a fine band, but their timing was quite poor and - especially as time went on...

Completely charming album that should appeal to folks who love the more acoustic-based 'avant/progressive-yet-tuneful' stylings of L'Ensemble Raye, Feliu i Joan-Albert, 3 Mice, etc. This has definite Italian as well as South American folk influences...

"In 2010, I was searching for old records in the city of Quetzaltenango in Guatemala. I found myself in a dusty basement which had been in another time the warehouse of Iximché, a rock-o-la machines distributor. It was an exciting discovery, two big rooms full of old 45s but also dust and rat's dung. Among some incredible finds, I found two strange private 45s which had been released by local drink company. The song titles, 'Brujería' ('Witchcraft') and 'Transmutación del iniciado' ('Transmutation of the...

For nearly three decades Aphex Twin has reigned as The God of Electronic Music. His tunes have packed dancefloors, soundtracked late night sessions and highlighted festivals around the globe.

“Apostle are a quintet of seasoned musicians from Yorkshire (UK), who have – collectively and individually – shared a stage with Budgie, Kaiser Chiefs, Magnum, Gary Moore and Martin Barre among many others!
Taking their influences from bands dating from the 70’s to present day (Led Zeppelin, Marillion, Rival Sons, Deep Purple,Pink Floyd etc…), the band truly have a unique sound, mixing great rock riffs and melodies with a twist of prog!
The band originally formed as The Apostles of Chaos, but...

This Japanese issue of a odd release in Cherry's ouevre, includes two bonus tracks!

"The 1969 avant-garde collaboration between trumpeter Don Cherry and electronics pioneer Jon Appleton was originally released on legendary jazz producer Bob Thiele's Flying Dutchman label.
The album has four compositions with the titles "Boa," "Oba," "Abo," and "Bao", with Cherry stretching out on various flutes and African percussion instruments in addition to pocket trumpet. Includes the original artwork...

The fabulous Aquaserge return for their latest with a live album that features the extended version of the band.
Lovely, differently arranged and quite different overall versions of songs from their last two works. Hugely personally recommended!

"A well-kept secret until recently, Aquaserge has been a subterranean driving force in the international music scene.
The band's members have also been involved with Tame Impala, Stereolab, Melody's Echo Chamber, Aksak Maboul and Acid Mothers...

Great concept and based on a quick listen, one of their better releases (and that’s saying something!). Recommended.

“Always ready to expand their scope and blur the genre borders, the inventive, revered French avant-rock band have decided to tackle the field of contemporary classical music from the mid-20th century, in a special project which pays tribute to four major atypical figures: Giacinto Scelsi (1905-1988), György Ligeti (1923-2006), Edgard Varèse (1883-1965) and Morton Feldman...

“Hailing from Trondheim in Norway, Arabs in Aspic has been mid-Norway’s flagship of 70s inspired progressive rock and proto-hardrock for the past 15 years. They’ve been described as a sweet mixture of loud, heavy guitars and drums, 12 string acoustics, funky bass and percussion, screaming Hammond organs, soft Rhodes, Mellotrons and 70s Synths, topped with plentiful vocal harmonies.
The second release from Arabs in Aspic was "Far Out in Aradabia", which was released in 2004 on CD only. In their humble..

5{ll country, Belgium certainly has a easily identifiable sounding style of new music, and Aranis, a septet of fantastic young players, fits right into the chamber-rock sound that we all know from fellow country-groups like Louise Avenue, C...

For their sixth album, Aranis have once again have reverted back to their sextet chamber group sound using flute, double bass, piano, guitar, accordion and violin/viola and have once again spotlighted composers from Belgium, instead of all the...

Akira Sakata - alto saxophone, clarinet, voice
Johan Berthling - double bass
Paal Nilssen-Love - drums & percussion

"...the energy is so furiously intense it feels like it's going to spin out of control and take someone's eye out. Sakata delivers wry alto phrases, as though from the corner of his mouth, before digressing into urgent flights of fancy, and finally launching into screaming, red-faced declamation - fueled by Nilsen-Love's boiling pulse-time drums and the low bounce of...

Three guitarists, three generations, one album. Günter Schickert, Jochen Arbeit, and Dirk Dresselhaus are all renowned Berlin guitarists. They epitomize three generations of experimental musicians; Schickert personifies the krautrock of the 1970s, Arbeit 1980s post-punk, and Dresselhaus the neo-electronica of the late 1990s and 2000s. Their artistic approaches may differ according to their diverse musical backgrounds, yet what they have in common is a fundamental interest in developing the guitar as a...
