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

LP Edition of 500. Release Date – July 17th, 2026 – Preorder available – $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… Read more »

Spiral Galaxy - II ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) Release Date – July 24th, 20206 – $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… Read more »

Pirámides - El Bienestar del Espíritu ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) Release Date – July 24th, 2026 – $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… Read more »

Orchid Spangiafora - Eel Asp Flaps Feet ()

LP Edition of 300 CD Edition of 300. OUT OF PRINT  Fifty years after I first encountered the music of Orchid Spangiafora, it is a pleasure to be listening to new work by this most bonny of modern sound manipulators. Like Flee Pasts Ape Elf (FTR 096), which we reissued in expanded form in 2013, Eel Asp Flaps Feet (the title of which is an anagram of the earlier set) is an assemblage of immaculate invention. It manages to produce a unique splotch of confusing analog surrealism in an increasingly digital world, and Robert Carey (aka Orchid himself) deigned to provide these notes on creating the music: “This album is a combination of some new material and ideas and some… Read more »

Drew Gardner - Rabbit Ears ()

LP Co-Release with Eiderdown Records Release Date – August 7th, 2026  – Preorder Available – $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… 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 »

Ned Collette - Mixed Light ()

LP Co-Release with It Records (Australia) Release Date – August 28th, 2026 – $30 Ned Collette’s latest album Mixed Light, his 8th solo outing, shines that bright light on a cultivated and multifaceted songwriting talent. As all true Nedheads would know to expect, the album flows freely between styles, genre-hopping and rollercoasting through moods. Sometimes delicate and dreamy then warm, dramatic and melancholy, it tumbles into rhythmic, almost psychedelic, melodic pop, before diving into a whirlpool of his most raucous and raw offerings to date. Collette’s songwriting is compositional and often complex but never disordered. Bringing to bear the insight of a storied 20+ year career, encompassing experimental jazz, progressive folk, indie pop and post-rock – all of which echo… 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 »

Lucas Gunn - You Should’nt try to barrow other People’s skin. ()

LP Co-Release With Carbon Records $24 You Should’nt try to barrow other People’s skin. [sic] was recorded professionally with quality vintage microphones, while a few tracks were self-recorded. Each song was recorded live in the studio – no overdubs, no edits – giving the album a raw, authentic edge.  All songs were recorded analog to 2-Track tape or 4-Track tape, with the exception of one song being recorded on a portable tape recorder. Overall, the guitar sound is heavy, hypnotic, and catchy.  And at times drone-y and chorus-y.   The whole release starts out with a somewhat jarring piece, Hair Productions Presents Lucas Gunn’s Petertag, a very quick thick drone and high-end burst, more expected on a noise record, but showing… Read more »

Alison Cotton - The Gods Laugh ( / )

Co-Release with Glitterbeat (UK) LP – $26 CD – $15 “Cotton may expand folk’s raw emotions into more avant garde territories, but they still feel possessed by a blood-red muscle memory that goes back centuries.” – The Quietus Alison Cotton’s fifth solo album is a mesmerizing weave of haunted atmospherics and avant-folk songcraft. Built around her viola, harmonium, and transportive vocals, the album moves between stark drone passages and more layered arrangements with piano, percussion, and synths. The Gods Laugh is a work of quiet, sublime intensity, cementing Cotton’s unique space in the contemporary English music scene — a space where richly textured sonics meet tradition, and deeply personal compositions evoke the experimental spirit of artists like Nico, John Cale,… Read more »
