Oram, Daphne - Oramics 2 x CDs "Daphne Oram is best-known for the design of her Oramics system, and also for co-founding the BBC Radiophonic Workshop in 1957, but until the release of this material, the only easily-available piece of music by her on CD was the 8-minute long "Four Aspects." There was also a 7" EP from 1962 on HMV, released as part of the Listen, Move and Dance series that was specifically designed to help children dance. Although the short pieces on this record are very basic, it could be argued that this is the..., 05-PD 021CD $25.00
Blue Oyster Cult - Tyranny & Mutation (expanded / remastered) (Mega Blowout Sale) The band who basically invented the idea of 'thinking man's hard rock/heavy metal'.

Lopez, Brandon - Vilevilevilevilevilevilevilevile CD “Vilevilevilevilevilevilevilevile is the exquisite new solo work by virtuosic bassist/composer Brandon López. A record about perceptions. More pointedly: this new work is "less about -a thing- than it is about perceptions of things, questioning those perceptions, and possibly altering perceptions." From New York Philharmonic's David Geffen Hall to the DIY basements of Brooklyn, López has worked extensively beside many luminaries of jazz, classical, poetry, and experimental music. As with all bass ... TAOF11.2 $15.00

Abrahams, Chris - Follower vinyl lp (due to size and weight, this price for the USA only. Outside of the USA, the price will be adjusted as needed) “For more than three decades now Sydney pianist and composer Chris Abrahams has developed a singularly iconic body of work. Known widely for his work with trio The Necks, Abrahams solo works have carved out an entirely otherworldly realm in sound. His explorations of organ, electronics, and piano capture a restless curiosity and timbral interrogation that only deepens with each of his releases. With Follower, his compositional language further expands. Melodies cascade with a cinematic pacing, spilling... 05-RM 4162LP $29.00
Golia, Vinny / Urs Leimgruber - Empiricism In The West "Empiricism in the west" is a revelation, two amazing wind players - saxophonist, clarinetist and flautist Vinny Golia and saxophonist Urs Leimgruber - in a series of free improvising duos pushing their instruments into unusual and captivating territories. The aim of this luxurious collaboration is to obtain a synergy of the sounds of all the instruments, keeping in mind all that the technique involves: circular breathing, search for dissonances, multiphonics, exaltation of acoustic dynamics...

Fahey, John - Proofs & Refutations vinyl lp (due to size and weight, this price for the USA only. Outside of the USA, the price will be adjusted as needed) "Recorded in 1995 and 1996, mostly in John Fahey's room at a Salem, Oregon boardinghouse, the performances on Proofs and Refutations prefigure the ornery turn of the page that marked Fahey's final years, drawing another enigmatic rabbit from his seemingly bottomless musical hat. Cloaked in the language of dogma, this is Fahey dancing a jig in the Duchampian gap, jester cap bells a-jingling. Right out of the gate, Fahey re-materializes before us, somewhere between Oracle of Delphi and Clown Prince at... 05-DC 759LP $24.00
Electric Family - Echoes Don't Lie “The brand new 6th studio album of the celebrated formation with numerous new guests! The excitement was great when in 2017 "Terra Circus", a new studio album by the Electric Family, was released after a break of 10 years. The resounding success of the album also led to live concerts all over Germany. Even then, the band promised that it wouldn't be that long before the next studio album. Promise kept!

Kovac, Boris - Times of Day: Concerto Suite for Sax and Chamber Ensemble, peformed by New Ritual Ensemble Boris Kovac is a marvelous composer from Serbia. He released 1 CD on ReR and two on Victo in the 80s (and I luckily managed to see him and his ensemble when they performed at the Victoriaville Festival in the late 80s), but he's really very little known here. Finally he's got a new one on ReR. "What Boris does is without parallel or precedent, and he's been doing it for over 40 years, perfecting a language that is uniquely his own: not chamber music, not world music, not jazz -- but demanding... 21-ReR BK2 $15.00

K'mono - Mind out of Mind vinyl lp (due to size and weight, this price for the USA only. Outside of the USA, the price will be adjusted as needed) “Mind out of Mind is the second album from Minneapolis-based progressive rock band K'mono. It provides a dynamic journey of sound and narrative as it weaves a tale of a king banished from his own kingdom. While flashes of the band's core inspirations, Yes, King Crimson, and Camel can still be heard at times, the sophomore effort pushes further into other sonic realms frequently drawing comparisons to Pink Floyd, Genesis, and more. Between the songwriting team of dual front men Jeffrey Carlson and... 39-LP-APR-074 $27.00

Sand - North Atlantic Raven CD "Previously unreleased album by German trio Sand, composed and recorded in 1973, '75, and '76. The once-croaking raven now flies silently over the ocean, higher and higher. Where are you rolling, sun-ball, and why don't you fall? The sandy Golem crumbled into dust. His brave struggle against the mighty forces of darkness soon dissolved in voiceless space. There is something magical and inexplicable in creation, and Sand absolutely manifest these mysterious phenomena. Storytellers, musicians, shamans.... 05-ROTOR 009CD $18.00

Russell, Ray - A Table Near The Band CD (Mega Blowout Sale) “In 1988, guitarist/composer Ray Russell climbed onto the Montreux Jazz Festival stage with a crack band comprised of rhythm team Mo Foster and Simon Phillips, trumpeter Stuart Brooks, and keyboardists Tommy Eyre and Tony Hymas. The success of their show convinced Russell to capture this unit for posterity, and bolstered by saxophonists Iain Ballamy and Tony Roberts, the group entered the studio. A Table Near the Band was the result, a set originally released in 1989 and now reissued by Angel.... 23-SJPCD 258 $6.00
Bordreuil, Leila / Michael Foster - The Caustic Ballads “On the surface, the album title might be an oxymoron. None of these free-form works resemble traditional ballads, but the young Brooklyn-based duo's ideology and vision is clearly distinct and personalized via these jaunts that to some extent, parallel the British free jazz scene with acidic, creaky and scorching elaborations. There is a consortium of zany nouveau classical music breakouts with bizarre episodic transgressions that tend to hold your attention. At times, the acoustic instrumental... RPR 1034 $13.00
Kalma, Ariel - Osmose vinyl lp (due to size and weight, this price for the USA only.

Birge, Jean-Jacques / Helen Sage - Rendez-vous “French group Un Drame Musical Instantané was founded in 1976.

McGregor, Chris - Up to Earth CD Half-correct pirated versions of test-pressings of this album have circulated among collectors of Brit-jazz for literally 4 decades(!) - I had a cassette of one such 'test pressing' for over 20 years (on the other side was the unreleased session that we eventually released as "Way Back When" by John Surman!) - but this is the first time that the entire album has ever been heard - and from the original master tapes!

Mr. Albert Show - Mr. Albert Show First ever reissue of this very obscure Dutch band's first album from 1970.

Sandstone - Can you Mend a Silver Thread? CD "There is nothing ordinary about Sandstone.

Recorded in 2013 and 2014 in the Hollywood Hills as he relocated from Chicago to Los Angeles, Parker combines the dark tonal palette and percussive attack he's known for with real-time processing elements and field recordings, deftly crafting a unique world of solo guitar music - multi-lingual, mysterious, alive with extraordinary sonic events, with a sturdy... 05-MTE 065LP $34.00
Little Feat - St Valentine’s Day Massacre “Few bands that formed in the early 1970s have managed to survive and continue touring to the present day. Little Feat is one of the few that have, in no small part due to their outstanding musicianship and the idiosyncratic songwriting of founding member, Lowell George, which has stood the test of time. This 1976 Winterland performance is one of the finest examples of Little Feat during the prime years of Lowell George, when the group had established a reputation as one of the most exciting and original... 21-SUCD101 $14.00

Sax Ruins - Blimmgauss "Though hes renowned for his roles in Acid Mothers Temple and Zeni Geva, and for leading the bands Koenjhyakkei and Koekyojinn, since 1985 Ruins has been Tatsuya Yoshidas primary musical outlet. Beginning in 2006, Yoshida would occasionally fill the vacant second slot with alto saxophonist Ono Ryoko, one of Japans most indemand studio musicians.

Nice - Five Bridges (expanded) "Five Bridges is a delectable representation of early 70s progressive rock. It's make-up contains all of the elements needed to complete a solid prog album: a heavy intermingling of synthesizer and electric guitar, strong punctuation of both bass and drums, a central concept, and the fusing of rock and classical music, which in this case employs the Sinfonia of London.

Tolliver, Charles - Connect CD "I have always loved Charles Tolliver's playing. His tone has been & is always so beautiful. It has always amazed me how he is not better known than he is. Andrew Hill, Jackie McClean, Stanley Cowell are just a few of the many people he has recorded with over the years. If you want to hear a great trumpet player who also writes great tunes (not to mention his big band & his arranging), you would be remiss not to give him a listen.

The jittery funk of 'Chariot' and the smooth ballad 'Someday' show off Duke's soulful vocal flair.
