Recorded at The Greenhouse, Stockport, December, 2011.

Is RMI the most prolific band in the world? They might be. And they shockingly keep releasing great work. In addition to their many albums, RMI have also released a number of very limited edition CDRs. The musical and sound quality of these releases is excellent; as good as their regular releases, but do remember that these are CDRs in simple, flat packaging.

Originally only released on cassette, and never before on CD, this includes 7 bonus tracks!

"The Radio Noisz Ensemble, successor of the folk group Emma Myldenberger, came from the Weinheim an der Bergstrasse area and released its only LP...

“This soundtrack a testament to the Radiophonic Workshop’s mastery of sound. At once unnerving, atmospheric, and deeply moving.” - Matthew Holness

“Original soundtrack to a new British horror film by the pioneering UK electronic research lab responsible for Doctor Who and Quatermass. Astonishingly considering their 50 year career scoring for radio and television, this is the first time The Radiophonic Workshop have ever scored a feature film for theatrical release or collaborated on a major score..

"The debut album of guitarist Antonio Ragosta is a voyage where the author summarizes through a personal language, a massive musical literature, the result of academic studies and a wide range of performance experiences. This album contains nine...

"Borrowing just as much from modern classical and improvisational jazz forms as from rock, Rain were really out on a limb and taking chances."-PopMatters

"Rain, Norway's most well-kept secret -- well, not anymore. After the first release of...

"In the year that will always be known for a disastrous pandemic, it has become increasingly noticeable how music has responded intuitively with releases redolent with both negative and positive perspectives on these strange and stressful times. In Singularity, Rain have poured forth their own mixed emotions in a fascinating cascade of myriad styles and ideas. Rain, as a new band, will mainly attract interest initially due to two notable figures from modern progressive rock, including bassist John...

Tom Rainey is one of jazz / avant music's current greats on the drums and what a band he's got here! Recommended!

"On this second CD with his band Obbligato Tom Rainey surprises with standards and beautiful love songs like «Stella by Starlight», «What Is This Thing Called Love» or «I Fall in Love too Easily».
Tom Rainey has played in bands with Tim Berne, Fred Hirsch

“In 1980, Les Rallizes Dénudés welcomed guitarist Fujio Yamaguchi (The Dynamites, Murahachibu, Teardrops) to it's fold. The unconventional pairing of inimitable Rallizes frontman Mizutani with Fujio's unrestrained, bluesier styles ushered in a new era for the band that excited fans old and new. This unique arrangement lasted lasted less than a year, but the lineup would leave behind a long-lasting impact among Rallizes fans that can still be felt to this day.
Among the seven gigs played by the...

Dr. N. Ramani was born in 1934 & first began to play the bamboo flute (known as a venu and regarded as sacred to Krishna), which is smaller than that played in northern India, under his grandfathers guidance when he was still a small child. Ramani's mu...

I don't know much about this Brazilian group, but here is what I do know. They are apparently huge fans of Hermeto Pascoal and Egberto Gismonti (good taste!) and they are playing a wonderfully atmospheric music that is influenced by them, but has a lot...

“Symphonic, progressive, passionate, emotional, cerebral, carefully crafted music.
The Random Earth Project, formed in January 2022, is a core collective of four musicians, each with longevity, respect and passion for the Progressive music they compose and create. Occasionally combined with additional components to supplement meter, timbre, melody & rhythm

This is the 2nd part of a symphonic rock concept album dealing with 2001. The band call it a CinceConcerto.

"What exactly is a CineConcerto? It is the staging of live music, accompanied by the integral projection of a film. It is not just soundtracks or images but a true Rock -Opera built on the rhythm and the suggestion of the images and the narrative. The original sound of the film (sometimes left together to the music of the band) is almost entirely replaced by the texts of the songs...

"Her teachers were the revered Allauddin Khan, guru to Ravi Shankar, who taught most of the best known instrumentalists in Northern India, and his son, Ustad Ali Akbar Khan, the great master sarodist who founded schools in America and who, with his brother-in-law Shankar did so much to bring world renown to the mysteries of Indian classical music. With more formal education than most Indian performers (she held an M.A from Delhi University), Sharan Rani combined intellectual understanding of her art with...

“All-new album by Robin Storey aka Rapoon. Founded in 1992 after Storey left Zoviet France, Rapoon soon became an outstanding ethno-dark ambient project that has gained a cult following all over the world.
More than 80 albums have been released over those nearly 30 years, some more beat driven, others more playful and with ambient sounds and ethnic influences. Rapoon has never stopped evolving - think of Cultural Forgeries, an album full of unplugged acoustic music. Or Downgliding, full of....

"Time is a flat circle. Everything we've ever done or will do, we're gonna do over and over and over again....for ever." - Rust Cohle/Nietzsche.

Moka Efti is the fictional name of a night club in the series Babylon Berlin. Set in the decadence and turmoil of the 1920's the series incorporates real historical events into an imaginary narrative. This set of recordings is a modern take on that era set in the declining West of 2024. Tracks vary wildly but are all unified within the same setting. An...

"Brand new album by the legendary Rapoon. Robin Storey, co-founder of Zoviet France and a very prolific solo artist since his departure, is combining his love for krautrock with his love for French film.
A hommage to the Nouveau Vague cinema with a soundtrack that for the first time incorporates real drums! Another radical change for Rapoon. Always evolving, always progressing."

This is the first-ever release on CD from the master tapes of the third album by Rare Bird, originally released by Polydor in 1972.

"2007 reissue of this progressive rock classic including bonus tracks originally available on the seven inch single included with early copies of the original LP. Though it made little commercial impact on its release in 1972, Rare Bird’s ‘Epic Forest’ has since been widely acclaimed as a classic of the pre-Punk era: a unique album that fuses the emotional reach of...

"Based in suburban Detroit, formed in the mid-1970s by high school chums Steve Gore and Steve Kretzmer, the Rascal Reporters made music together for over 30 years, until Gore's death in March, 2009.
Call it Progressive Rock, Avant-Garde Pop, Sound Collage, Experimental, Rock in Opposition, Sentimental Tear Jerkers, Quirky Folk Tunes for Casio, Elevator Music from Hell, or whatever category you like, this duo of Steve Kretzmer (keyboards, percussion, vocals, guitars) and Steve Gore (keyboards...

I had the chance to see this guitar/bass/drums trio earlier in 2006 and they were pretty good, but they weren't nearly as good as their albums, which combine aspects of what you would expect from Tzadik's Radical Jewish Culture series with an out,...

Rashomon is the name of the musical projects that Matt Thompson has been working under since leaving Guapo right after recording Black Oni. While the work he does he is quite different - it's not a band for one thing - you can absolutely hear here what...

Julien Desprez: electric guitar
Mette Rasmussen: alto saxophone

“If you’re mainly acquainted with Mette Rasmussen through her collaborations with American musicians like Chris Corsano and Paul Flaherty, this record will change your perspective as surely as having the glasses knocked off of your nose will affect your vision. When in America, she seems to have done as certain Americans before her have done. There’s a long tradition of fire music here, and she’s plugged into it. But there’s
