Dylan Golden Aycock - No New Summers ()

LP Co-Release with Worried Songs $26 Nice to hear the first solo LP in a good while by this most excellent guitarist who also runs the superb Scissor Tail label. Dylan writes, “I made the title track a couple years ago at the beginning of summer. I was thinking about how as you get older you have fewer new experiences. That feeling of excitement for summer fades, after it used to be such a big deal as a kid. Those experiences can only be new and vibrant once. The rest of your life can be spent in nostalgia for them. It’s a sad thought and maybe not true for everyone, but I suspect it is for most. The album is… Read more »

Rootless & Starbirthed - ST ()

LP Edition of 300 – $25 CD Edition of 300 – $11 Release Date – April 4th, 2024 – Preorder available –  This album has been a long time coming. We were lucky enough to do a tape in 2022 with Jeremy Hurewitz (aka Rootless) called what the truth leaves out. But this is the first time we’ve been able to work with long-time fave, Matt Lajoie, who appears with Ash Brooks as half of the no-longer-active duo, Starbirthed. The idea for this pairing was presented to us by Jeremy, who recorded the album at his cabin in southern Vermont in 2019. Jeremy’s Rootless project generally features at least a soupçon of acoustic guitar (often combined with electronics or other… Read more »

Loren Connors and Suzanne Langille - Crucible ()

LP Co-Release with Carbon Records $20 Continuing much of the instrumental, musically dense partnership of Loren Connors and Suzanne Langille in the 80s and 90s, Crucible stands out as a clear highlight in the pair’s musical partnership, despite the music not featuring the pair performing together. Full of Connor’s beautifully droning walls of sound, and Langille deconstructive approach to Americana melodicism, Crucible is getting a vinyl reissue on Carbon Records & Feeding Tube Records. Loren Connors, with multiple decades worth of projects, needs no introduction. One of the forefathers of American free improvisation, Loren Connors sits on the throne among the ranks of other talented improvisers, such as Ornette Coleman, Miles Davis (whom he has released a tribute album for),… Read more »

Spunflower - S/T ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) (350gsm gloss laminated outer-sleeve. Heavyweight red and black galaxy effect vinyl) $24 Humboldt County has been known for three things the last few decades: celestial redwoods, the most famous hairy crptid, and potent botanicals. In the early OOs it started to also be known in certain circles for amazing outsider rock and psych jams, when bands such as Starving Weirdos and White manna began pushing and exporting Humboldt’s unique style of free-minded music. From their methods of operation to their fried synaptic frequencies, Spunflower is creating a new sound in Humboldt, but for the world. For this LP, Anthony, Nicholas Talvola and Luke Aronie set up a remote session at The Old Steeple in… Read more »

Jean-Baptiste Favory - i was thinking ()

CD Edition of 300. $14 What a pleasure it is to hear this new album from France’s Jean-Baptiste Favory, long-distance associate of Los Lichis, presenter of France’s longest running avant garde radio show (Epsilonia), and a goddamn great musician. I Was Thinking is the solo third album we’ve done with J-B (preceded by Things Under and Ciels), and we think it’s the most varied and fascinating one yet. Using guitars, keyboards and electronics, Favory explores the edges between avant-rock, experimental composition and free form madness, in all their dark glory. The tracks here rarely follow merely one or another of these threads. They tend to careen wildly through all of them in sequence or even simultaneously. For example, the title… Read more »

De Regering Van Treffelijke Zaken - Melle​-​Aan​-​Zee ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) & Swarm In Peace (EU) $24 “Melle-Aan-Zee” is the latest lo-fi recorded collection of improvised pieces by Ghent-based occasional psych folk, kraut infused jam collective De Regering Van Treffelijke Zaken, which seems to continue to give birth to compositions that defy convention and exceed expectations. Just as their sporadic meet-ups seemingly cannot be planned, their enigmatic worlds of sound unfold through pure improvisation, sense of experimentation, a confluence of coincidences and reasoned skits. There’s a special kind of magic when things spontaneously align, a magic that can’t be replicated by meticulous thought. The unmistakable sound of KRAAK’s 12-string guitar advocate Venediktos Tempelboom, Ishtembashtockx’s unconventional way of playing anything, Gonzalez’s fuzzy and angular contributions backed… Read more »

BHAJAN BHOY - Bhoy On The Wire ()

LP Co-release with Cardinal Fuzz $24  Ajay Saggar is BHAJAN BHOY. “With BHAJAN BHOY, Saggar synthesizes all of the stylistic approaches he’s explored over the years, swirling them into an intoxicating musical blend, with an earthy spirituality. Even the project’s name reflects the dual aspects of Saggar’s upbringing coming together in harmony. In Hindi, a “bhajan” is a devotional song, sung in the mandir, or temple, while “bhoy” is a Scottish and Irish derivation for a young man. There’s a searching quality to Bhajan Bhoy, as if Saggar is still hunting for transcendence with each track, whether through an expansive drone, an orchestral facility on the piano, or an electronics-augmented raga that threatens to dip into noise” (Erick Bradshaw /… Read more »

Various Artists - The Suzanne Langille Songbook ()

2xCD Co-Release with Family Vineyard Release Date – April 4th, 2025 – Preorder Available – $16 Thirty-two artists honor the extraordinary legacy of Suzanne Langille through interpretations of her vast songbook. Langille is best known as an acclaimed avant garde singer-songwriter and collaborator of guitarist Loren Connors. They ventured into electrified blues and abstracted artsongs across more than a dozen albums since the mid-1980s. Langille’s songs, with Connors, solo, or other collaborators, are marked by distinct and captivating depth. Her evocative lyrics, layered with themes of loss, longing, and the natural world, defy conventional boundaries, blending poetry with potent melodies. Her work embraces the uncertainty of life and the delicate spaces between joy and sorrow. Langille’s first published composition —… Read more »

Myriam Gendron - Mayday ( / / )

LP Co-Release with Thrill Jockey Black Vinyl – $21 Green Vinyl – $22 CD – OUT OF PRINT CS – $12 Mayday is the third LP by Montreal-based artist, Myriam Gendron. It follows her earlier, critically acclaimed albums, Not So Deep As A Well (2014) and Ma délire – Songs of love, lost & found (2021). Myriam began exploring the complex folk traditions of Quebec (and beyond), with Ma délire, which combines traditional and original songs with arrangements that make space for avant-garde musical interludes by such folks as guitarist Bill Nace (Body/ Head) and renowned jazz percussionist Chris Corsano. Mayday presents an even more syncretic fusion of the elements Myriam uses to create her sound. Most of the songs are… Read more »
