“The math-prog masters are at it again with Pantophobie! Expect to be flabbergasted!”-Can This Even Be Called Music

“Ni is a four-headed monster. The big bad Ni has left the linear roads of the French department of Ain, in order to live in a complex world paced by electrical sounds and varying poly rhythms. In its temple, shouts of the quartet make the windows crack, a stunning...

"German prog rock band discovered by Klaus Schulze and praised as "one of the best fusions between electronic and rock-oriented music".
The band was founded as "Peacock" in 1975 by Tommy Betzler and first toured the extended Rhine-Main area and built up a small but loyal fan base. Recording a demo tape and sending it to record companies proved to be unsuccessful. There were a lot of rejections, especially with the reason that the time of "progressive rock" is really over and "disco" is now the latest..

“Reissue, originally released in 1984. P16.D4 was a German electronic noise music collective, active primarily from 1980 to 1988. P16.D4 embraced tape cut-ups, musique concrète, endless recycling, and transformation of previously published material, and many long-distance collaborations with like-minded artists such as DDAA, Vortex Campaign, Nurse With Wound, and Merzbow. Their active participation in the international industrial tape scene yielded collaborative output such as their release Distruct...

"P2O5, founded in Wendelstein near Nuremberg in 1970, released their only LP in 1978 on the Brutkasten label which is today in high demand. There is to be heard hard rock with progressive elements and English lyrics. The Brutkasten studio was only...

A new release by this excellent oboe/flute player who first came to attention in the great ensemble Noetra and has since led Il Monstro and his own ensembles.

“As a composer, oboist, flutist and vibraphonist, Christian Paboeuf has had a brilliant career in writing and performing music for the theater and motion pictures. In 2017, in a move to rekindle a more direct relationship with his audience, he created the Christian Paboeuf Quartet. The band’s unusual instrumentation is now showcased in...

“Al Rincón Por Soñar (To The Corner for Dream), is the twelfth album by Rafael Pacha, a Spanish multi-instrumental

This is a fairly monstrously collectable Swiss psychedelic item from 1972, with fabulous organ, good guitar, drums and fairly crazed vocals.
This is the first time this has been issued legitimately, and it includes the famous 'talking skull' cover, a short history of the band, a bunch of photos, & 3 bonus tracks from non-lp sings from 1970 & 1971 (all tracks taken from the master tapes!)

Remastered and presented in a mini-lp sleeve, this reissues a fairly in-demand album which has been unavailable on CD for at least 5 years now. The first solo album by one of the pillars of the original PFM. "Those who expect that Mauro Pagani's solo...

“Without Alexis Korner, there still might have been a British blues scene in the early 1960s, but chances are

Solo piano interpretations of what the original keyboardist of Le Orme considers their most beautiful of their output.

"Canzone d'amore is the title of the new album by Tony Pagliuca, the keyboardist of Le Orme, a band from Mestre (Venice) able to overwhelm the recording market in the seventies with their progressive-pop music . Tony Pagliuca exactly 50 years ago joined this extraordinary band. Now Tony is back with an album that features an unreleased track and 13 songs among the most beautiful...

Frank is best known for his work with his band Only A Mother, but he's been a solo artist for much longer than Only A Mother were around. "It may be hard to believe, but The Back of Beyond is Frank Pahl's first solo album since 1998! In the meantime he...

An earlier run-through of what became IKP!
This is France’s and the USA’s 2018 collaboration of minimal/experimental/toypop music!

A great idea for a collaboration, as Frank Pahl (Only A Mother) is a perfect foil for Klimperei! Frank performs on "home-made automatic instruments", while Klimperei perform on various keyboards, guitars, percussion, etc. The simple elements used combi...

"This is a wide panorama of Nam June Paik work as musician -- 'Hommage à John Cage' (1958-1959), 'Étude for Pianoforte' (1959-1960) and 'Simple' (1961) are good example of neodada music and de-structuration in the late 50's, this is basically irreverent audio-collages. 'Prepared Piano for Merce Cunningham' (1977) captures an improvised performance by Paik on a de-tuned piano. While 'Prepared for Merce Cunningham' was later mixed and edited for use by Cunningham, this raw, straight-to-tape version is...

This is both Paladin releases complete PLUS bonus material, reissued on BGO, who are one of the better outfits doing reissues, especially in terms of their CD mastering (i.e. ‘they no crush’).

“British progressive rock band Paladin's two albums for Bronze Records, dating from 1971 and 1972. The group was formed by Pete Solley and Keith Webb, both who'd been in Terry Reid's backing band. Despite a hectic touring schedule and promotion, the band never really achieved commercial success and called...

The Ed Palermo Big Band combines two unlikely American masters with The Adventures of Zodd Zundgren, a dizzying and ingenious reinvention of music by Todd Rundgren & Frank Zappa, two much-loved but drastically different American rock composers...

Ed and his amazing 16 piece band (+ guests) return with his third album of his distinctive, big-band interpretations of the great 20th century composer, Frank Zappa. This body of work has won them huge acclaim from both new and old fans of the music and they even appeared on NPR's Weekend Edition for a short feature which was heard by millions of listeners in 2006. For those not already familiar with Ed's colorful, jazz-based arrangements of Zappa's compositions, Ed has led a big band for 30 years (!)...

"Oh Yes!" – Culture Jazz

Over the past two decades Ed Palermo has earned an avid international following with his brilliantly executed, reverently irreverent arrangements of Frank Zappa’s tempestuous and wildly inventive music. On previous albums the New Jersey saxophonist, composer and arranger infused the world of Zappalogy with his own brand of incisive wit & bracing improvisation. He doesn’t neglect Zappa on his 4th Cuneiform dispatch One Child Left Behind...
