Ned Collette - Mixed Light ()

LP Co-Release with It Records (Australia) $29 We first became aware of this great Australian-born rover when he had finished recording his 2018 progressive folk masterpiece, Old Chestnut (FTR362 ). Ned followed this up with 2019’s surprising, fantastic instrumental trio LP, Afternoon-Dusk (FTR468). Then in 2022 we vinylized his great solo debut, Jokes & Trials (FTR630) and did a lathe of his excellent appearance on our covid-era Quarantunes series (FTR657). 2024 saw the release of Our Other History which was a lovely assemblage of material recorded in a variety of formats. Now it’s 2026 and we have a new slab on Ned called Mixed Light. And it’s a beaut. Like Our Other History, this new one is more of a… Read more »

Loren Connors / Michael Vallera / Elliott Sharp - When The Moon Is New ()

LP Edition of 424. $26 There are fewer great guitar trio records than you’d suspect. Guitar duo sessions are far more abundant, and these three players have all done their share of those. But the dynamics of a trio are more fickle. And when creating collaborative non-hierarchical music, maintaining a balance between three distinct voices is not easy. It requires rapt attention, a fearless approach to entering the unknown, and very good ears to do it successfully. Clearly, Connors, Vallera and Sharp display mastery of all of these conditions and then some. Recorded live at P.I.T. (Property Is Theft) in Brooklyn, When  the Moon Is New documents the first meeting for the trio. Loren and Elliott, two of the best… Read more »

Eleanora - Lamentations of An Bhean Sí ()

LP Edition of 250. Release Date – October 30th, 2026 – Preorder available – $27 Lamentations of An Bhean Si is the vinylization of the debut album, first issued last year as a cassette, by the Oakland-based harpist Eleanor Denison. Denison trained as a classical harpist, before dropping out to play more informally and pursue an agrarian lifestyle near where the White River joins the Connecticut River Valley in central Vermont. She returned to the Boston area in 2023, at which point she began developing a new avant-pop approach to her instrument. Using a loop pedal and a delay pedal, her playing mixed composed bits with pure improvisation. Denison played regular live shows, on bills with artists from across the… Read more »

Drew Gardner - Rabbit Ears ()

LP Co-Release with Eiderdown Records $25  “Fifth solo outing by one of the founding guitarists of Elkhorn, who has also been an essential part of Jeffery Alexander’s Heavy Lidders. Gardner is the master of several distinct styles. He can grab the ring of psych-eternity with rare surety. He has versatile outward-spiraling jazz chops. And I’ve even caught him playing a sort of avant doom metal like he was born Norwegian. I’ll admit I haven’t heard his last two albums (no promos I guess), but I’ll bet they’re pretty cool, since Rabbit Ears is a solid gas. The band this time is a quartet. Bassist Andy Cush and drummer Ryan Jewell are still present, with the new addition being guitarist Tom… Read more »

White Gourd - (To Walk in) Justice (Calls for) Strength ()

LP Edition of 250. $26 White Gourd is the soubriquet Suzanne Stone uses for her long-running solo project. Her recordings as White Gourd are distinct from her work in Million Brazilians, the mothership for the Psychic Sounds Collective, who (along with Big Blood, Id M Theft Able & others) have worked tirelessly to keep the Strange Maine banner flapping in the cold northern wind. White Gourd’s music uses voice, saxophone, percussion & doo-dads galore to create song-like fields of sound possessing the semiotic weight of rituals celebrating an unknown tongue. There are certain resonances with artists like Fursaxa and Spires That in the Sunset Rise, but as with most Psychic Sounds related music, everything is bathed in a weird light… Read more »

Ayami Suzuki & Rob Noyes - Classic Fevers and Chills ()

LP Edition of 500. $25  Glorious vinylization of this 2022 duo session, originally issued as a cassette, documenting the first time Suzuki and Noyes ever collaborated. Ayami Suzuki has become known to cognoscenti for her brilliantly imagined vocal improvisations, through recordings with like-minded folks such as French vocalist/polymath Delphine Dora and avant hurdy gurdy player, TOMO. Rob Noyes has developed a parallel reputation as a master third-generation acoustic guitarist in the post-Takoma tradition. Originally based in the U.S. he wisely relocated to Tokyo several years ago. Which is where this meeting took place, And while I initially assumed the music had been composed to some degree. Rob assured me that was not true, He says, “I think the recording can… Read more »

Spiral Galaxy - II ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) $22   Mixed Colour Vinyl Chicago cosmic explorers Spiral Galaxy return with Spiral Galaxy II, an ecstatic, deep-space voyage of pulsating drift by flutist Sara Gossett and Plastic Crimewave on guitar/keys/machines. Expanding on the terrain mapped out by their acclaimed 2020 debut, the duo push further into a world where flute, raagini, guitar, drone, and an old school drum machine merge into long-form galactic excursions that feel both meticulously crafted and gloriously untethered. SG II was aided by the guiding hand of Windy City weirdo-visionary Bobby Conn, who contributed textural treatments and overdubs, vintage percussive devices, and spoken-word passages that all deepen the album’s ritualistic atmosphere, placing Spiral Galaxy somewhere between kosmische music, astral folk,… Read more »

Pirámides - El Bienestar del Espíritu ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) $22 Mixed Colour Vinyl with full size insert. The defining feature of El Bienestar del Espíritu is its sense of movement. While Pirámides have long explored psychedelic and experimental territory, this new album places rhythm firmly at the center of the experience. Bass and drums drive much of the record, creating hypnotic, trance-inducing foundations that pull the rest of the music into orbit over which voices and atmospheric textures gradually unfold. El Bienestar del Espíritu is the latest transmission from Monterrey (via Tucson) Pirámides. Pirámides have never been easy to categorize. Built around the songwriting of Patricio Coronado and shaped by a philosophy closer to musical collage than traditional rock orthodoxy, the band’s music… Read more »

Chris Corsano, Tashi Dorji - Live at Ritual Botanica ()

LP $25 Messrs. Corsano and Dorji are both familiar names in the Feeding Tube discography. Chris has played drums on eight FTR LPs (and recorded two other), and Tashi has played guitar on six (details upon request if you are lazy.) But this is the first time they have appeared on vinyl as a duo, and we are damn proud to have them. Over the past years Chris has recorded with a lot of the era’s best guitarists — Bill Nace, Ben  Chasny, Thurston Moore, Nels Cline, David Vanzan, Bill Orcutt, Rick Bishop, Glenn Jones, Jim O’Rourke, Flo Stoffner & onward. And Tashi has worked with some fine-ass drummers — Thom Nguyên, Tyler Damon, Michael Zerang, Dylan Fujioka, Susie Ibarra,… Read more »

William DeLee - Raynol Overlook ()

LP Co-Release With Carbon Records $24 Similar to Eric Arn and other folks in the guitar realm, William DeLee leans at times to the more neo-classical and cleaner side of acoustic guitar playing. But like Arn, he is never stale or overly traditional, and also like Arn, William has some mad skills, some might say, he’s a virtuoso. Raynol Overlook showcases both Will’s expertise, but also his incredible creative approach to both 6-stringand 12-string guitar, as well as his emersion into the Andean stringed-instrument the charango. Like on past releases, this LP is a perfect blend of pieces composed on these various instruments.   The first three tracks on side 1 are simply titled after the feature instrument, Nylon, Charango,… Read more »
