Artist: N.A.D.M.A. Title: Paura Format: CD Label: Alga Marghen Country: Italy Price: $17.50 |
| "N.A.D.M.A. was officially born between August and the beginning of September 1972 during the time spent in a little village in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. The identity and musical orientation of the collective centered on the convergence of heterogeneous interests and sensibilities coming from avant-garde jazz experiences liberated by post-free currents, from classical studies, or from musicians also active as visual artists, who had cultivated an instrumental practice utilising spontaneous expression. All the group members assimilated and creatively incorporated the most progressive influences of Afro-American music and the contemporary neo-avant-garde, but shifted noticeably in the direction of the contemplative and ecstatic vitality of non-European, especially African, musical cultures. The Natural Arkestra Da Maya Alta was, and still is, known to a limited group of devoted listeners on the merits of the only record released by RCA in 1973. The group, which represented one of the most innovative entities among the collectives of improvisers active in those years, perfectly expressed its musical virtues in a limited number of periodic live events. The concerts took place mostly in Milan during 1973-74. The CD starting this series, Paura, is named after the first track of the N.A.D.M.A. concert at Circolo Lepetit in Milan in March 1973, presented here in its entirety. In this concert, the very first live concert preserved on tape, N.A.D.M.A. already." - Alga Marghen. |

Artist: N.RACKER Title: Flock Intoxicant Format: LP Label: Pre-Cert Country: UK Price: $21.00 |
| "After delivering a limited edition cassette release that sold out in a couple of hours, N.Racker unveils his vinyl debut for Pre-Cert Home Entertainment, a label run by Demdike Stare and Andy Votel. Were not at liberty to divulge his real identity for fear of the Pre-Cert wrath, however, we can tell you he hasnt previously appeared on the label; his roots reach further back into one of Cottonopolis most cherished imprints. The sound he makes is full of rumbling gloom, misery and arcane folk mystery, think somewhere between Sunn O))), The Haxan Cloak and Morricone/Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza -- albeit with a distinctly Northern English slant. The material on Flock Toxicant is based on an imagined alternative history of a sinister, pre-industrial pestilence among the ovine population and the people who work in wool processing, ending in complete devastation and dereliction. The atmosphere is chokingly heavy and nocturnal throughout, making use of self-constructed devices, antique electronics and altered acoustic contraptions made by the artist himself, designed to blacken every surface. You could think of it as a soundtrack to a low-rent steam-punk-sci-fi-horror, or just the latest in a line of immersive, conceptually-opaque transmissions from this ever-intriguing label. Cut by Lupo at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin. 700 copies only." -Pre-Cert. |

Artist: NA HAWA DOUMBIA Title: La Grande Cantatrice Malienne Vol. 3 Format: LP Label: Awesome Tapes From Africa Country: USA Price: $18.00 |
| "First release for new label Awesome Tapes From Africa, a blog and DJ project known worldwide for shedding light on obscure and wonderful musical treasures from the African continent. This early recording--made in Abidjan, Ivory Coast in 1982--captures the dualities inherent in Doumbias music early on: from a stripped-down, raw backdrop arise warm sonics; expressions of feminism and social issues imparted through spare refrains. Doumbias urgent, distinctive vocals and hypnotic didadi rhythm from her native Bougouni have made her a respected voice in Mali for more than three decades." -Awesome Tapes From Africa |

Artist: NACE, BILL Title: Drawings: Winter 2005 Format: Book Label: Gladtree Press Country: USA Price: $11.00 |
| "A series of surreal drawings from, you guessed it, the winter of 05. Figures of the alien, amoebic, and aquatic dimensions float across the page in dream-like succession, inhabiting a nether region that is both familiar and disquieting. Unfold the book completely for a more linear glimpse of this evolutionary-existential debacle. "The teeth always go down." 11 panels, 3.25x3.25in, handmade, hardbound, accordion-style book with letterpressed front and back covers. Edition of 200." - Gladtree Press. |

Artist: NACKT INSECTEN Title: A Site Specific Piece of Avant-Garde Sound Art, Nothing To Be Worried About/Corridor Voyager (Quantum Odyssey II) Format: 7"/CD Label: Memoirs Of An Aesthete Country: UK Price: $18.00 |
| "Mr. Ruaradidh Sanachen has been getting a name for himself recently with his one man kosmische metal space ritual project Nackt Insecten, releasing plenty of limited edition "stuff" on a whole bunch of labels. In February 2008, as part of Glasgows wonderful Instal festival, he was seen cradling a suitcase full of howling drone/noise aboard Glasgows tube trains, and what a show it was - check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2V5nrb6NLlo for a glimpse of the fun. As Nackt Insectens relentless sounds meshed in perfectly with the locomotive rumblings, I thought to myself what a fine 7 inch single it would make. And sure enough, over a year later, here it is. An explanation made by a member of the "audience" to a worried fellow traveller provides the title. This package also contains a CD of new Nackt Insecten studio concoctions, a conceptual sequel to the recent LP on Blackest Rainbow Records. A real CD too, not a CDR! Cover art by Goldenlabs Fliss Horrocks and the inclusion of a genuine Glasgow tube train ticket completes this handsome package. Limited to 200 copies." -Memoirs Of An Aesthete |

Artist: NACKT INSECTEN Title: Reality Bridge Format: LP Label: Blackest Rainbow Country: UK Price: $21.00 |
| "Second full length LP from Scotland/New York weirdo Ruaraidh Sanachan, who also is the guitar shredder in Moon Unit and runs one of the best tape labels in the UK, Sick Head. Reality Bridges four tracks of psyche-out futuristic electric haze are a step up from Sanachans previous full length LP, Quantum Odyssey we released almost two years ago. Reality Bridge is one hell of a record, pulling together kosmische synth, guitar wailing, sci-fi insanity and b-movie bliss outs. The record is housed in a pro-printed sleeve featuring new insane artwork by Ruaraidh featuring a super degraded repeated self portrait with synth in space. The artwork is definitely up there with the now classic Quantum Odyssey cover. Pressed on virgin vinyl." -Blackest Rainbow. |

Artist: NAGAI, SEIJI Title: Electronic Noise Improvisation 1999 Format: Double LP Label: Klimt Country: France Price: $35.00 |
| 2011 vinyl reissue of 1999 CD. "After spending the first half of the 1970s globetrotting with Asias premiere avant-garde band--Takehisa Kosugis Taj Mahal Travellers (where Seiji Nagai played trumpet and keyboards)--Nagai continued to study and play music, particularly Indian music (drones) and electronic/computer generated music. In 1999 he finally released Electronic Noise Improvisation, with the help of Koichi Watanabe, Koji Kawai and Minoru Yonemoto. Here, as in the days of TMT, Nagai concentrates on creating dense drones, but this time his instruments are computers and a host of electronic gadgets, as well as electronic mandolin and piano." -Klimt. |

Artist: NAGAMATZU Title: Sacred Islands Of The Mad Format: LP Label: Dark Entries Country: USA Price: $16.00 |
|
"Dark Entries is honored to present the highly limited second cassette by British duo Nagamatzu for the first time ever on vinyl. “Sacred Islands of the Mad” is a collection of eleven tracks recorded between December 1984 and March 1986 in London by Andrew Lagowski (SETI, Legion, Terror Against Terror) on synths, guitar, and drum machines and Stephen Jarvis (Pure Motorised Instinct, Terraform) on synths, bass and programming.
Nagamatzu began in 1982 after messing around with old tape machines and drum boxes, making numerous contributions to international compilations and erratically releasing their own cassettes. Their name comes from a character in JG Ballards “Atrocity Exhibition” and their music reflects his influence and incorporates carefully chosen samples from the Challenger shuttle disaster, Gregorian chants and films including “Dawn of the Dead” and “The Omen.” All the songs were recorded onto a Ferrograph reel to reel in a small room at their parents house and some of the backing rhythms and sequencers were recorded first onto cassette and then the band played along live. Nagamatzus instrumentals combine stuttering bass, guitar bursts and funeral keyboards draped over a dragging drum machine beat, calling to mind Clock DVA, Cabaret Voltaire and early New Order or Cocteau Twins. “Sacred Islands of the Mad” is a complex, textured tapestry of sound full of dark electronics, fresh harmonies and danceable rhythms.
All songs have been remastered especially for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios from the original cassette masters. Each LP is limited to 500 hand-numbered copies and includes a newsprint zine full of fliers, gig tickets, ads, and photos." -Dark Entries

Their new record The Same As A Flower, recorded between 2002 and the beginning of this year, is the third to be released by Jagjaguwar. Much like on previous records, the songs on the new record by this Osaka, Japan-based group are about nature, about the singularity of two people immersed in nature together, and about experiencing life as being, not becoming or recovering from. And like their previous full-length record, Feel, The Same As A Flower still brings to mind the very best of sixties and seventies psychedelic, progressive and folk rock (i.e. middle-era Roy Harper, Pink Floyd, 13th Floor Elevators and early Neil Young)."

Jagjaguwar is once again very proud to deliver the bands most recent work to North America and Europe. Yosuga also marks the first time that Jagjaguwar has released a Nagisa Ni Te title on vinyl (not to mention the still popular compact disc format!). The Japanese duo of Shinji Shibayama and Masako Takeda deliver an album that consists of both beautiful arrangements and soft melodies. Yosuga -- the meaning of which refers to the source or grounds upon which the body and mind rely -- is one of Nagisa Ni Tes finest efforts." - Jagjaguwar |

Artist: NAKATANI, TATSUYA Title: Nakatani Gong Orchestra Format: LP Label: Taiga Country: USA Price: $23.00 |
| "Perpetually rolling, Japanese-American master percussionist Tatsuya Nakatani holds a relentless schedule, road-bound in continuous dedication to his passion. His solo sets thunder with coaxed nuances from his kit, overlaid in staggering bounty. Nakatani is also fearless when it comes to collaboration, and seeks it out adventurously during his extensive tours. In this spirit of combined efforts, Nakatani Gong Orchestra shines a different light in each new location it arises. Nakatani has been packing his van with gongs and his handmade bows, mallets and surrounding instruments throughout 2011 and 2012. Each stop offers a new set of five or six players who have a brief technique workshop and practice with Nakatani before performing fresh to a live audience. Encompassing a wide range of different backgrounds and experience, each performance results in vastly different soundscapes. Many of these Nakatani Gong Orchestra rituals have been recorded, highlights from which have been extracted and compiled seamlessly for this LP. Recorded 2011 and 2012 in Easton PA, Oberlin OH, Philadelphia PA, Kansas City KS, Richmond VA and Toledo OH, the Nakatani Gong Orchestra LP was mastered by James Plotkin, cut direct to metal and pressed on 200 gram virgin vinyl. An edition of 800, the record is packaged in a hand-numbered Stoughton tip-on jacket wrapped with black paper and printed with metallic ink." - Taiga. |

Artist: NAKED ON THE VAGUE Title: Blood Pressure Sessions Format: LP Label: Siltbreeze Country: USA Price: $14.00 |
| "LUCY PHELAN and M.P. HOPKINS hail from Sydney, Australia. Behind a basic framework of keyboard, bass, and vocals (and all manner of tinkered-with percussion) NAKED ON THE VAGUEs distinct aggregate of sound calls to mind everything from SPK to Mars and beyond. Or, as theyre fond of calling them in Philly, "the Death Star version of Times New Viking." Originally released in 2007 on CD by the fearless Australian Dual Plover label, The Blood Pressure Sessions ventures into a darker realm than their debut 7-inch (also on Dual Plover) had erroneously suggested. Propelled by the sharp, rhythmic snare drum beat and anchored by thunderous, fuzzed bass-lines and stinging, swinging organ and synth fills, Phelan and Hopkins take turns rounding out the vocal duties, giving the whole of their sound a sonorous curtain of ecstatic foreboding. Betraying a gallows wit, the band refers to their music as "apocalyptic pop," which could be construed as both drowning and waving. Appearing at SXSW, US tour in the spring of 2008." - Siltbreeze. |

| "LUCY CLICHE and MATTHEW P. HOPKINS dive deep into a world of apocalyptic pop and psychedelic weirdness with disparate vocals that grip onto menacingly hook-laden basslines and stabbing keys, pushed by an unrelenting drum machine far past the end of its warranty period. Expanding on the final moments of no-wave and what that imploded scene might have become, this nine-track punk assault ranges from almost danceable, short-and-sharp hits to gloomy, extended freak-outs. Life never looked so bleak. -Dual Plover "Distilled nihilism." -Drop Dead Magazine. |

While the rickety, no-wave splat found on previous efforts had its appeal, the heft of a "proper" rhythm section has only helped Naked on the Vague delve deeper into the landscape of post-punk murk. Bleak, unrepentant, withering and droll, Heaps of Nothing is a 21st century codification of the gallows wit and mesmerizing otherworldliness of (Dub Housing-era) Pere Ubu, Primitive Calculators and Lemon Kittens. Shuttling mutant urbanity from past to present, Naked on the Vague is only too eager to confirm that the Earth isnt flat. Because Heaps of Nothing is here to flatten it. Upcoming Australian and American tours planned, with European dates in the works. LP version to follow." - Siltbreeze. |

| "Having expanded from the no-wave two piece of LUCY CLICHE and MATTHEW HOPKINS to a fully fleshed out four-piece including drummer LACHLAN VERCOE and abassist NIC DE JONG, our favorite Australian outcasts return with a stunning EP as their follow-up to last years full length on Siltbreeze. This EP is a bit lighter in mood and delivery; in the words of the bands own Hopkins its a bit like, Dracula fronting the B-52s. While this is certainly Hopkins taking the piss, opening track, The Gift is a perfectly modern homage to past dark lords such as Bauhaus and Christian Death. Twelve Dark Noons serves as a companion piece to the short experimental film of the same name directed by JACQUELINE CASTEL and produced by CALEB BRAATEN of Sacred Bones and Night People Records. The film has had several premiers worldwide including SXSW and ZedeBois Gallery in Lisbon, it stars the bands core duo Lucy & Matthew in a horrific mental unraveling set in the Australian outback. NOTV have already toured the US and EU extensively playing shows with Blank Dogs, Wolf Eyes, Times New Viking, Om, Jandek and Thee Oh Sees amongst others.

Centered around Hanna Tuulikkis rich and expansive vocals, with a heady, kaleidoscopic mix of vintage whirling oscillators, Moog synths and buzzing harmonium, alongside the intrepid string explorations of Chris Hladowski and Aby Vulliamy, these six pieces continue the long trek through other worlds of sound to form a dense, cohesive suite that meshes everything from Japanese gagaku, European plainsong, Near Eastern modal drones and more.

Artist: NANJO GROUP MUSICA, ASAHITO Title: Comtemporary Kagura-Metaphysics Format: CD Label: Fractal Country: FRANCE Price: $19.00 |
| "A work of contemporary music performed in the rock idiom by Japanese underground rock legend, Asahito Nanjo. Nanjo is active in a wide variety of rock groups, but Group Musica exits in order to pursue a more universal musical vibration. Group Musica is an ensemble that pursues the free use of every type of Western and Eastern musical instrument, is propelled by the vibrations of very subtle rhythms, and that has internalized the methodology of minimalism. The concept behind this album is transform Kagura, an ancient form of Japanese music and dance that was performed for the gods, and is to convert the ideas of Secret teachings and ancient Chinese methods of divination (the I-Ching) into a metaphysics of musical vibrations. The concept of Kagura allows Group Musica to create a unique work that is an experimental symphonic composition, which nonetheless has many rich improvisatory elements. In this unique work, the symbolic/philosophical nature of ancient esotericism is incorporated as improvisation, while the I-Ching is related to avant-garde symphonics. These are then fused into a total concept. Many different musicians from various genres participate in Group Musica, but their contributions are filtered through Nanjos musical sense and thus altered, fused and structured. It is for this reason that remain anonymous -- Group Musica exists as a total entity. Recorded in 1993 & 1994, this album is a colossal long studio works which has necessitated more than 400 overdubbings. An extraordinary adventure in sounds and the most astonishing musical project by High Rises leader." - Fractal |

In more than 25 years, Greed is in fact Nanjos first solo release. Recorded in 1993 and mastered at La Musica studio 2004, with the participation of Makoto Kawabata (guitar), Hisashi Yasuda (bass) and Nobuko Emi (drums), Nanjo used the criminal guitar, effect, voice and offers two long tracks. Composed and structured in the same vein as the solar first album of Ash Ra Tempel, Greed is a dark psych-fuzz esoteric album, a veneration of the black sun, who follow more deeper the musical direction taken with the mysterious Ohkami No Jikan. 250 copies limited numbered vinyl only edition." - Sparkling Spare Wheel.

"The Japanese label Hello Good-Byes ongoing series documenting underground legend and ex-Rallizes Denudes bassist Hiroshi Nars more formally fucked experiments marches obliviously forward with these two beauties, Gacharn (Hello Good-Bye Studio UNC-0008 3"CD) and All I Need (Hello Good-Bye Studio UNC0009 3"CD). Gacharn is particularly disturbed. Recorded in 1974 while he was still a member of Toshiaki Ishizukas Zuno Keisatsu, its one of Nars patented attention-deficit assemblages, taking off from the burr of chainsaws and birdcalls before moving through episodes that highlight the sound of flesh on flesh, amphetamine piano runs, compositions for hollow pottery and the destruction of new Lego buildings. All I Need is a compliation, with tracks drawn from across Nars career. The title track is a great folk punker from the early 90s, shadowed by the same kind of deeply malvolent atmosphere that cloaked much of Sky Saxons work with Ya Ho Wha 13. The second track was reputedly recorded in 2000 and sounds alarmingly like the cast of Time Bandits re-interpreting Jimi Hendrixs Fire, while track three (no English titles) dates from 1977, while he was still active with Rallizes, and features Nar working snake-charming modal hurricans from an acoustic guitar like it was some kind of Venusian banjo.

This is one of his wildest discs, especially the last two tracks: pop songs assembled with a concréte-punk sensibility that splices snatches of electric guitar, Beefheart-styled horn abuseand a hilarious fast rapping baby with doo-wopping rock n roll and frayed folk guitar." David Keenan, Wire May 2003.

Artist: NAR, HIROSHI WITH NISHINIHON Title: Hiroshi Nar With Nishinihon Format: CD Label: Lexicon Devil Country: Australia Price: $13.00 |
| "Originally issued by Lexicon Devil in 2005. This is a special one-time-only CD, limited to a pressing of 500, of a rare live meeting of minds: power trio Nishinihon (featuring Kawabata Makoto of Acid Mothers Temple) and Hiroshi Nar of the legendary collector-scum/60s/70s Japanese uber-psych/garage destruction unit, Les Rallizes Denudes. Nishinihon are the amazing scorch n burn three-man unit whove scarred eardrums for several years now with their acid-rock meltdown. Since his departure from Rallizes in 1978, Hiroshi has kept himself busy with a myriad projects running the scope of no wave, garage punk, Dada-rock and the occasional guest playing on an Acid Mothers disc. Suffice to say, his discography is as long as your arm and much more interesting. Hiroshi Nar with Nishinihon (which said 5 times with a belly of booze can be a great game) celebrates exactly that: a one-off live meeting in Japan in December of 2001 between these musical titans. With Hiroshi penning three of the four songs present, theres definitely a heavy musical similarity to Les Rallizes; both "20 Yen For Each Additional" and "Machiko" possess that crawling, stumbling vibe of his previous bands best 70s work, the combination of his guitar twang and stuttering garage stomp resulting in a kind of Crazy Horse/Quicksilver hybrid. Even more explosive, are the furious guitar explosions of "Are You Lady?" and "Peep Up," two short(er) ditties that get straight to the point and drive it home in a most Stoogely manner. As it says on the back cover of this release: "Do you wanna teste this fuckin sweet wonder rock world, Brother?" Hell, yes." -Lexicon Devil |

Artist: NARITA, MUNEHIRO Title: Narita Format: CD Label: PSF Country: Japan Price: $19.50 |
| "First solo album by HIGH RISE and KYOAKU NO INTENTIONS six-string speed meister MUNEHIRO NARITA. Featuring a guest appearance by TAKASHI UENO of MAHEL SHALAL HASH BAZ, TENNISCOATS, and a couple of dozen MAJIKICK-related units fame. With High Rise currently on extended vacation, Narita has been burning up stages across Tokyo in his aggressive, free-jazz inflected improv rock unit Kyoaku no Intentions, and more recently in naked solo style. He has deconstructed the most thrilling elements of rock guitar pyrotechnics-wah-wahed smears, slowed down slides, sensual string bends-and retooled them into a far more subtle improvised psychedelia.

Artist: NASAL BOYS Title: Hot Love b/w Die Wüste Lebt! Format: 7" Label: Sing Sing Country: USA Price: $6.50 |
| "Switzerlands premiere punk band only released this much acclaimed 7" and thats a shame! Some of the wildest and fastest Punk around in 1977! A unique and uncompromising sound that was ahead of its time – completely according to their slogan: “Schneller, Härter, Länger” (Faster, Harder, Longer). “Hot Love” is a monster of a Swiss Punk anthem while “Die Wüste Lebt” is a great song about being alive in the Swiss urban desert! In a TV interview from 1977, the band was asked why they didnt dress punky. “Were against cliches”, the singer responded, and: “Our main inspiration is U.S. Punk, not U.K. Punk.” Guess one can hear that. But still, the bands big break was opening up for CLASH when they played in Zurich in 1977. Shortly after, the band tried to make it big and changed their name to EXPO. They released an LP on a big label which is okay but nowhere near the glory of this single. Former members went on to form a number of bands including Aboriginal Voices / Rudolph Dietrich, Kraft Durch Freude, Blue China / The Bucks - several of which were highly influential bands." - Sing Sing.

Artist: NASCITA DELLA SFERA Title: Per Una Scultura Diceschia Format: LP Label: AMS Country: USA Price: $35.00 |
| "Nascita della Sfera was a group of session musicians assembled by a composer to record a single LP, in this case composer and keyboardist Carlo Barbiera dedicated a full album to the life and works of sculptor Luciano Ceschia (1926-1991), both coming from near Udine, Friuli VeneziaGiulia, in the north-east of Italy. The rare album is a rather original example of experimental electro-acoustic progressive style, mainly based on synth effects and acoustic guitars and often reminding some of Battiatos early works. Despite the presence of five singers in the line-up, the vocal parts are short, spoken rather than sung. 19 tracks are listed on the cover, but these are connected to form two long suites. All in all an interesting album for the adventurous listeners in search of something different. 180 gram vinyl. Gatefold sleeve." -AMS |

Artist: NASH, BEN Title: The Seventh Goodbye Format: LP Label: Blackest Rainbow Country: UK Price: $24.00 |
| "Vinyl debut for long term Blackest Rainbow brother Ben... Im extremly happy with this one. 8 tracks, 34 minutes. Opening with a reworking of KUAD 9873 from his Blackest Rainbow debut cassette... bleak drones smothered in vocal lulling, and finishing with a sweet guitar piece swirling in a lake of percussion, vocal and drone. Nightcall shows a more middle eastern psychedelic droning, bowing, wailing, and satanic mutterings. Track 3 is the title track The Seventh Goodbye, and is the most full band approach of Bens acoustic psychedelic folk jams, but this blurs into sax blurts, waves of melancholic vocal drone and writhing riffery. Perhaps similar to Voice of the Seven Woods or Six Organs of Admittance. Side B opener Smoke and Flattery is the most experimental - multi percussion, echoes of whispers, finger grating guitars. Magnetophon Pt IV is not Bens recent Sloow Tape of a similar name, but a bluesy haze LSD dream, building into a drenched ecstatic guitar drone. Following this is What Will Always Be Pt.II which is reminiscent of Jack Rose, or James Blackshaw, the most beautiful composition on the LP. This bleeds into the final surrealness of Angel No. 7 field recordings, bleak, fearful and empty. Im honoured to release this gem. Limited to 250 hand numbered copies on virgin vinyl, with black, white and red pasted on covers, plus a black and white insert. All artwork designed by Darryl Norsen who designed our (VxPxC) sleeve, and done a few beauties for Important records, as well as posters for Sunburned, Six Organs, Hush Arbors, Magik Markers and more." - Blackest Rainbow. |

Artist: NASH, BEN/NAUTILUS Title: Split Format: LP Label: Blackest Rainbow Country: UK Price: $18.00 |
| "Nautilus is the solo project of Heidi Diehl of Vanishing Voice/Time Life, long-time BR transatlantic e-mail buddy who we finally got to meet just over a year ago on the very brief Vanishing Voice tour. Since then, she has begun recording solo material under this alias, and has self-released one CD-R which blew our minds, and likewise blew local long-time BR friend Ben Nashs cranium apart. The Nautilus side opens with Still Rings, a far-out trip of weirdo outsider dripping mind-fuzz, like some kind of spatial insect gathering. Tallahasse Woman rings more bells with the sound of Vanishing Voice and Heidis psychedelic string playing, and subtle vocals buried below it. Jeans Theme is another sweet track of tranced-out guitar with approaching percussion and waves of vocal drones. Ben Nash holds his side with two nearly 8-minute tracks, opener Plymouth Bredren Blues has definitely got the blues, as mentioned in the title, theres some serious woe in the wah right here, and some almost Paris, Texas moments. Interloper/Latch also starts off pretty bluesy, but halfway through goes to a speaker-shredding guitar shaker, with some seriously serious riffs, that are almost breaking up as they begin, and then reverting back to the blues mediation of the beginning of the track. A great release, in an edition of 300 copies." -Blackest Rainbow |

Artist: NASH/ MAGIC LANTERN, BEN Title: Split Format: LP Label: Blackest Rainbow Country: UK Price: $21.00 |
| "This ones been brewing at BR HQ for quite sometime, due to come out long ago, this beaut of a split is finally seeing light of day. A mutual respect from these two camps brought about what is surely one of this years most exciting releases in the field of the split vinyl LP. Ben Nash returns after over a years absence from releasing any solo work, now busy as a full time member of the excellent Chora, we may all be in for a long wait for anymore solo action after this release... but here we find Ben entering new territory with less of the guitar plucking from previous solo outings... Across these three new tracks, Ben is heading in a more zoned out psychedelic drone pieces, fluctuating between blissful electric churning, and incredibly dark swarming monoliths, with buried electric guitar bursts, its quite a new sound for Ben. Unsurprisingly, he comes out on top form, and its maybe some of the most interesting recordings hes released so far, but its a far cry from his debut LP for Blackest Rainbow, The Seventh Goodbye back in 2008. Fellow Sheffield heads Cam Deas and Jon Marshall (Hunter Gracchus) accompany Ben on two of his three tracks, along with Rob Lye of Chora. Following on from 2 massively excellent LPs for our buddies over at Not Not Fun, Magic Lantern return, with what also might be the last recordings we hear from them for a while too... their two track side opens with a murky wild sounding basement jam Mosquito Coast recorded in 2008, followed by the 15 minute groove of Long Way Down, full of heavy organ, slow burning percussion, wild wahs, raw riffing and the occasional chanted vocal this is one heavy piece of stoned blues psyche rock out. Long Way Down was recorded by Bobb Bruno of Goliath Bird Eater / Best Coast back in 2009. Pro-printed sleeves, designed by Cameron Stallones." - Blackest Rainbow. |

Artist: NATH FAMILY Title: Sounds Of The Indian Snake Charmers Format: CD Label: Hanson Country: USA Price: $13.00 |
| "For the first half of 2005, I lived with my wife Erika in Kirtipur, Nepal. During our days, while she was studying at the Kathmandu Association For The Deaf, I was roaming the streets and villages of the Kathmandu Valley in search of sounds and music. While kickin round the tourist district of Thamel picking up cassettes, I met a family of Snake Charmers from Hariyana, INDIA. An old man probably in his 70s or 80s, his 2 grandsons, and one of the grandsons sons. They asked if I wanted to see a show....I said Hell YES!! They gave me a show...a KILLER show... were talkin 3 fuckin king cobras dancing at once, while a giant boa chilled at the side and few other random lil snake dudes are wigglin around here and there. I became obsessed. I had met my new best friends... Though the kind of best friends you have to pay to hang out with. They were hustlers, yes.. But thats their job... The money was well worth the shows. I spent about 3-4 days a week for the next 2 months, recording their music and their snake shows on mini-disc and videotape. I Drank alot of chiyaa with them, smoked alot of cigarettes and bidis. They taught me how to make reeds out of bamboo, and I traded them some clothes for a snake charming horn. They call them Beens, they are also known as Pungis. These guys were the best. At the end of April they left Kathmandu, heading to Pokhara, after that it was time for them to head back home with their earnings. Man...I missed them. This LP is the BEST OF THE BEST of the recordings I made of them. There are some classic Bollywood tracks, a Nepali folk song, and side 2 is a 19 minute drone journey into the head of the KING COBRA. The recordings were done in stereo. A been on the left, a been on the right. A premtal (stringed percussion instrument) on the left, a premtal on the right. The stereo recording of the charmers sway creates a very disorienting stereo tremelo effect. Its almost as if YOU are the SNAKE! These tracks were recorded in an alley. There is the occasional rumble of a car passing by, and the low murmer of the locals checkin out the white kid with the fancy gadget hangin with the snake dudes. So here it is... pressed on wax, with a kickass silkscreaned cover.... THE SOUNDS OF THE INDIAN SNAKE CHARMER!!" -Aaron Dilloway, September 2005. CD issue of the LP. |

Artist: NATIVE HIPSTERS Title: There Goes Concorde Again.. Format: CD Label: MRM Country: UK Price: $13.00 |
|
"There Goes Concorde Again is accurately described by the Native Hipsters head honcho William Wilding as "a collection of stuff (music/noises/words), recorded with various people at various times between 1979 and 2001". A bona fide lo-fi, punk-rock, cottage-industry product it was recorded in a living room and released on the Native Hipsters own label. Five hundred 7" singles were printed up (in 1980) with the band rubber-stamping each label individually and Blue Petering the covers by cutting up humungous hoarding posters of Kevin Keegan. If you think thats bizarre, wait until you hear the record itself. Fundamentally, it consists of female vocalist (in the loosest sense) Blatt, vacantly intoning a mundane monologue, "Outside fat woman struggle up the hill", accompanied by banana-finger bass plodding and random shards of noise. Apparently, the idea was that the guitars sounded like chickens pecking up grain. Hmm. The overall vibe is of The Fall soundtracking a surreal kitchen-sink drama co-starring Salvador Dali and Rita Tushingham. Yes, that blimmin marvellous. The fact that there are another 16 similarly bonkers tracks means that There Goes Concorde Again is pure genius." - Chris King. The Native Hipsters were included on the first Instant Pop Classics LP.

Artist: NAU, LAU Title: Kuutarha Format: CD Label: Locust Country: USA Price: $14.50 |
| "Last year saw an explosion & all too welcome interest in a vital, tightly knit scene of artists from Finland. Out of the communal circle of prodigious Finnish musicians comes this lovely 10 song debut solo outing of abstract folk, stray kiss lullaby & plucked blues by Laura Naukkarinen (vocalist in Kiila, Päivänsäde, The Anaksimandros). Sung in her native tongue, Kuutarha intimates a secret language outside traditional word speak into something utterly beautiful & unrestrained. Melody is suggested through the contours of voice, guitar & violin and arrangement has less to do with the placement of things than with Laus comfort in letting sounds fall where they may. Line up: Laura Naukkarinen (acoustic bass, bass recorder, five-stringed kantele, acoustic guitar, tenor recorder, violin, bamboo flute, colorful juice glasses, mortar, mandolin, witch laugh megaphone, babys rattle, bike bells, banjo, cowbells, electric guitar, organ, willow whistle, tablas, percussion, cymbals, comb, beer cans); Pekko Käppi (tamboura, jouhikko)." - Locust. |

| "From the sooty corridors of the rusted out skeleton of Baltimore, Nautical Almanac has taken the urban crack of electronic halftime entertainment and dragged it squarely into the times of horse and buggies. As the band clearly states no electricity or computers were used in the music making process. The sounds generated are from machines specifically built for the recording process or from real lab experience. Custom equipment made of weird alloys of plastic, leather, wire, and rubber. Longtime collaborators Carly Ptak and Twig Harper worked on this record along with 10 other guests from wall-to-wall of this saggy country: Forcefield, Paperrad and Costes associates were all involved. Nautical Almanac has records on Hanson and is an integral forefather of much of the MidWest noise scene. The band has many other releases on its own label Heresee. Wanna understand the throb of shirtless noise boys and girls in Michigan? Climb onto this crisco-coated locomotive and get the real deal of steel. Answers not included and sound not found." - Load. |

"Oren Ambarchi has been an active colleague -- we have collaborated on a number of Sunn O))) projects, and also Sunn O)))-related projects, film scores, tours, meals, etcetera over the years. He brought us to Australia for the first time in 2004, we toured Israel with Attila Csihar as Gravetemple Trio in 2006. Oren introduced us to Haino-san in 2006 when Sunn O))) played the FIMAV festival in Victoriaville, Quebec (Oren was in the ensemble on that tour), in a stinky locker room (the venue was a hockey ring). Had no idea what to expect but a few hours later, he was on stage with us. It was one of those what now moments you never imagine happening, having been a fan/follower of Hainos playing, concerts and recordings over the years. Five years later, somehow, we ended up as this trio. Haino, Oren and I were all in Holland for one reason or another and decided to try it. I played bass for the first time on stage with this group. Maybe it shows but the idea was a power trio backing up Haino-san, with a lot of amplification. We have had the chance to repeat the trio twice again so far, and this recording comes from a concert in Paris, November 2011. Its hard to describe the lessons through real-time communication in music with such a master of form, but needless to say, they were much different than what I was expecting and beyond! Proof again that expectations lead to dead ends. Was a most challenging experience in real-time music. I feel incredibly honored to be part of this trio." -Stephen OMalley. |

Artist: NEBRELLIM SENSORIUM SAXOPHONE ORCHESTRA Title: Every Room Format: Lathe Cut 7" Label: Abaton Book Company Country: USA Price: $13.00 |

"Millers preteen Classical training on the alto saxophone changed over to free improvisation and atonal composition by High School. In his early twenties, he expounded on 20th Century composition techniques and wrote a multitude of small orchestral pieces for various ensembles. He also performed with David Swains big band; The II V I Orchestra. In 1977, Miller joined up with the punk band Destroy All Monsters and his composition streak came to a halt and didnt pick up again until the mid-1990s. Throughout the 1980s, Miller continued to perform and record saxophone with a number of rock groups; The Same Band, Nonfiction, GKW, Radio Silence, The Empty Set and Roger Miller. Purchasing a C-Melody Saxophone in 1993 while earning his BFA at Columbia College Chicago, he began developing an all-interval method similar to Arnold Shoenbergs 12-tone method with the lofty concept that intervals were more important than pitch. This method has developed over the years producing an array of compositions, some of which can be heard at Bens MySpace page (Three Episodes, Out Of, and Francium). After performing and recording with Glenn Brancas 100 Guitar Orchestra in 2004 and 2006, Miller began to write for saxophone orchestra. Currently, he is recording these compositions as The Nebrellim Sensorium Saxophone Orchestra in his home studio by way of overdubbing." - Ben Miller.

"Classic over the top reissue of this legendary German underground album from 1972, previously reissued by the now-defunct Litte Wing operation." - FE. "Necronomicon came from Aachen, Germany and they named themselves after a book of H. P. Lovecraft, a horror- and science-fiction-author, where all possible horrors on this earth are described. It was one of the few German prog-rock bands, whose vocals were in German, like Gäa or Eulenspygel. Their only release was recorded in 1972 in a small studio in Kerkrade. The records were produced by Carl Lindström in an edition of 500 copies. The title of the LP is ambiguous, but doesnt describe how to stop your life at its best, but refers to mankind, who is devastating earth, and thus destroying its own basis for living. With the self-made cover they had something special in mind: it has six squares and builds a cross when opened and so it fits closely to the music and the texts and the whole production built a common concept. Due to the exceptional production, this LP today belongs to the most sought-after European prog-rock ever. The official reissue, which is offered here, also has a six-part gimmicks cross-cover, like the original and is limited to 500 copies. With insert and as 180 gram-quality-vinyl." - Amber Soundroom.

Artist: NEGATIVE SPACE Title: Hard, Heavy, Mean & Evil Format: CD Label: Rockadrome Country: USA Price: $14.00 |
| "Official reissue of ultra-rare 1970 underground psychedelic rock record born out of the early New Jersey scene and fueled by the revolutionary air of the period. The sound is raw basement fuzz guitar charged rock in its purest form, inspired by the likes of Cream, Blue Cheer, Jimi Hendrix, Nazz and others! Fueled by the revolutionary air that prevailed during his days at Rider College and the entrapment of marriage at a young age, Rob Russen drew upon his frustrations and anger as well as the influences of Jimi Hendrix, Cream, Blue Cheer, the Illusion, Steppenwolf, and Nazz among others of the era to create the material for Hard, Heavy, Mean & Evil. Russen recruited musicians Jimmy Moy (guitar/vocals), Bob Rittner (bass/vocals) and Lou Nunziatta (drums) to form the original lineup of Negative Space. Over a three year period, with minor variations, the group continued to perform, record and evolve into Snow. In the late 60s Rob Russen, with his cherry red Gibson SG, Baldwin Exterminator amplifier and fuzztone was a powerful force in the heavy rock emanating from the East Coast. Studio engineer Tony Pappa of MSI often commented about how difficult it was to contain and capture the power and fury of Russens music on the four track equipment used on these recordings. Negative Space and Snow recorded on Castle Records, a small independent label formed by Russen in 1965. All recording were limited issue with only a thousand copies of each single and 500 copies of the original Hard, Heavy, Mean & Evil album released. With the release of the album, Negative Space toured the East Coast extensively, opening for such national recording acts as Steppenwolf, Vanilla Fudge, Three Dog Night, Rare Earth, Eric Burdon & War and Grand Funk Railroad." -Rockadrome |

Artist: NEHIL, SETH Title: Uva Format: 3" CD Label: 20 City Country: New Zealand Price: $8.00 |
| "20 City is proud to release Uva, a new CD by sound artist Seth Nehil. In the field of electroacoustic music, Nehil is perhaps best known for his longstanding partnership with John Grzinich and Olivia Block as Alial Straa, formed in 1994. Nehil also participated in the Orogenetics arts collective together with Michael Northam and John Grzinich, operating in Austin, Texas from 1996-99. Now based in Portland, Oregon, Nehil continues to collaborate with Grzinich, Northam and Block in sound, performance and organization. Seth Nehil possesses an uncanny ability to create a wealth of sounds using innovative recording and performance techniques, without relying on effects boxes and processors. He creates complex sound environments that are subtle, clear and close. His sounds seem to emphasize the very silence that surrounds them, creating an infinite space for the listeners imagination to roam. Uva presents one track, just over 20 minutes in length. Objects in motion, a complex layering of textures, circular sounds and harmonies that intensify and recede... these are the constituent parts of this engaging new work. The term "uva" means grape, associated with ferment and intoxication, and is also associated with "ova" (the womb, birth, new forms). Uva thus implies the intoxication of new forms, the pleasure and disorienting quality of this music, the ferment of its creation, and the birth of its reception through the ear." - Richard di Santo. |

Artist: NELSON, NATE Title: Rope Pores Format: Book/CDR Label: Heavy Tapes Country: USA Price: $22.00 |
| "Rope Pores" is the second in a series of books presented by Heavy Tapes in an attempt to document the amazing visual talents and obsessions of some of contemporary experimental musics finest practitioners. Nate Nelson plays drums, percussion, and electronics in the 21st-century caveman destruction group Mouthus, and also lends his amazing talents to keep the beat for NY out-rock group Religious Knives. Fans may know his visual work from the series of covers he has done for the nearly 20 CDRs released by Mouthuss "Our Mouth" label, which range from tight and thin towers of ink to overblown contrasting visions. "Rope Pores" is a repetitive and incredible journey toward scraping away the painfully thin layer separating the concrete and the abstract. Through thin lines, tight pockets, and sprawling organic structures, Nelson presents an intense and storied vision, along with an accompanying and beautiful piece of music -- a tape composition composed over roughly the same period of time that the visual work was being completed. Edition of 100, signed and numbered by the artist." -Heavy Tapes. |

Artist: NEOKARMA JOOKLO OCTET Title: Infinity Format: Double LP Label: QBICO Country: Italy Price: $40.00 |
|
"This mind-blowing session was organized the day after the Qbico U-nite VIII which happened @ DobiaLab near Gorizia, Italy on Feb. 11, 2007. Neokarma started from an idea of David Vanzans vulcanic mind and with time, from a trio evolved into a 7et. Here they are with the complete line-up with special guests Giorgio Pacorig on Fender Rhodes and Makoto Kawabata on electric guitar. I had no doubt about the fact that Acid Mothers Temple Gurus would fit like a glove in this cosmic unit... nothing was planned... after three minutes David switched off the light and they are gone into deeeeeeep space... the void... the black hole... and I lived into the future. Their music reminds me a bit of Taj Mahal Travelers but of course with a new millennium feeling. I remember I played them TMT once in my place and they smiled and nodded their head... but they had never heard about TMT before. Virginia & Paolos wind instruments float, Andrea throws some aqueous meteors which he directly intercepts from other galaxies, Giorgio has some electricity, Makoto & Christian add some magical make-up, Maurizio adds that Eastern groove and David holds it all in his hands. For me, Neokarma is the most revolutionary, powerful and futuristic group that Italy has ever had." Pressed on light-blue marbled vinyl. - QBICO.

Artist: NEON JUDGEMENT Title: Early Tapes Format: LP Label: Dark Entries Country: USA Price: $18.00 |
| "Dark Entries has dug deep into the early days of the Belgian cassette scene to release two tapes by The Neon Judgment in the form of one vinyl LP for the first time ever! These pioneers of underground electronic music hail from the small town of Leuven near Brussels, Belgium and gave birth to the New Beat and EBM scenes worldwide in 1981/2 with the release of their first two cassettes neatly compiled here as Early Tapes. Always a consistent duo of Dirk Da Davo (synthesizers, vocals) and TB Frank (guitar, drum machine, vocals) The Neon Judgment worked in a parallel world alongside Suicide, Cabaret Voltaire, and the Deutsche Neue Welle recording under the watchful eyes of Roland Beelen (Antler-Subway) & Ludo Camerberlin (A Blaze Colour). Arriving just in time to celebrate the Neon Judgments 30th anniversary, Early Tapes showcases the bands brash and seedy lyrics, with raw synth stabs and repetitive drum machine beats adding to this rhythmic discourse. The result is a combination of lo-fi technology and emotional sincerity to create a sound both warm yet alienating that has stood the test of time and 30 years later, still evokes the same magic. The 10 songs on this LP were remastered from the original cassette masters resulting in a cohesive, gritty, maniacal dance program that sounds more relevant today than ever. Lyric sheet including rare photos, a mini poster and two silk screened die-cut diagrams taken from the bands original synthesizer workbooks." - Dark Entries. 2nd edition with blue jackets. |

Artist: NEON PEARL Title: 1967 Recordings Format: LP Label: Acme Country: UK Price: $22.00 |
|
"First time issue for the earliest of the Peter Dunton (Please, Gun, T2, Infinity) bands, here with Bernard Jinks and Nick Spenser, the same line-up as the second version of Please from 1969; the band had been playing these tracks in German clubs from June to November of 1967, providing the first psychedelic experience for the Berlin audiences they blew away night after night; upon their return to the UK, they were given studio time to record as many tracks as they could - this LP includes two acoustic demos, and six tracks from these recording sessions; since the peripatetic Dunton moved on to four other projects in the next two years after these recordings were made, it is no surprise that they have been completely overlooked (especially as no one had heard them!); but it is a happy day for fans of British psychedelia that this tasty platter has been unearthed at last- all trippy originals, with no filler. A significant event." - Acme. Highly recommended!

Artist: NEPTUNE Title: s/t Format: LP Label: Golden Lab Country: USA Price: $20.00 |
| "From Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts with a gnarled, home-made clatter and drone comes Neptune. Part sculptural art metallurgy project, part rock band (no, scratch that -- ALL rock band), the three-piece formed initially to demonstrate, in an art gallery setting, the awesome crunk of band leader Jason Sandfords home-sculpted scrap metal instruments. Two world tours and one blistering album later, theyre now set to release two new full-lengths on Table of the Elements (home to their heroes Faust, Tony Conrad and John Cale, amongst others). But not before this, the first recorded fruits of their unrelenting instinct for improvisation. The album, featuring five tracks and running at a fraction over forty minutes in length, was recorded in collaboration with their friends Jessica Rylan (Cant/Vampire Cant), Donna Parker and Kevin Micka. Reminiscent of 70s/80s experimental post-prog innovators This Heat, the home-made electronics, found sounds and scrap metal are forged to create a familiar brand of searing, soaring, seething rock, played with virtuosity and gusto, yet with a sense of individuality inescapable in the shadow of the instruments creation. With beautiful floral packaging designed by celebrated sleeve/poster artist and NME cartoonist Dave Bailey, and pressed on beautifully putrid orange and brown marbled vinyl, this improvised masterpiece is surely a contender for most collectible record of 2007. Ltd to 525 copies on orange/brown marbled vinyl." -Golden Lab |

"Loren Nerell (born 1960) is a composer and performer of ambient music and Balinese gamelan. As a composer, Loren has written music for film, theater, dance and interactive multi-media. He has performed with the Kronos Quartet, has recorded eight albums of original work, has appeared on several compilations and has made guest appearances on recordings from Steve Roach, Paul Haslinger, Djam Karet and L. Subramaniam. He spent several months in Java and Bali studying native styles of gamelan music. Loren Nerell was born in Long Beach, California. His early interest in electronic music began when he heard the Tangerine Dream album Rubycon. With it, he crossed over into a world of music that previously did not exist for him. He studied analog synthesis at Long Beach Community College, eventually moving to San Diego State University where he was exposed to tape manipulation and tape composition techniques. He also began performing and studying Balinese gamelan music, and the microtonal composition of Harry Partch. From San Diego, Loren moved to California State University Dominguez Hills where he delved into computer synthesis, utilizing their Synclavier system. After mastering the techniques he learned in school, he developed his own studio, stocking it with an array of vintage sound modules as well as the latest technology. He has worked in the music industry as a sound designer, including a position at Oberheim Electronics, a synthesizer manufacturer, and as a recording engineer. Point of Arrival was originally released on cassette in 1986 and has never previously been available on vinyl. It was recorded using an Arp 2600, Arp sequencers (two of them), Emu Emulator 1 with cv/gate converter, Emu Emulator 2, EML 101, EMS Synthi A (two of them), Linn linndrum, Moog micromoog, Moog minimoog, Moog model 15 modular, Oberheim OBXa, Oberheim DSX sequencer, Oberheim DX drum machine, Oberheim DMX drum machine, Roland Jupiter 4 and Roland SH3a.

Jason Boyer s home recording project mixes low-fi garage, classic doo-wop, noise and reverb to produce a perfect blend of fuzzed out, toe-tappin , head-bangin garage pop. Boyer s home-recording techniques lend themselves to Nerve City s sound, driving the truly dark and minimal tracks to develop into reverb-laden, distortion buried pop gems.

As you may already know, Nerve City is one of the brightest home-recording projects thats been exploding into a gripping live band, all the while holding a line of desperate tension and aggressive simplicity that climbs inside your skull within seconds and never really leaves. With a strong handle on jangling 60s guitar instrumentation and misanthropic melody, coupled with brash, shell-shockingly savage recording methods and songwriting thats so far above its peers, its time you warmed up a spot in your withered soul for Nerve City before they blow up in your face. Look for their debut LP coming soon on Sweet Rot, along with a 12-inch EP on Sacred Bones right around the corner as well.

Awash in the whips and twangs of a spring loaded reverb tank and faint hints of a distant drum kit, Nerve Citys hook-driven songs recall the hard-charging down-strokes of the Velvet Undergrounds more driving moments or, more recently, the psychedelia of West coast kindred spirits in Sic Alps and the Gris Gris. Over the past several years, the band has cemented a rep both live and on record. First came the Catholic School demo tape and the follow-up, Hell (both via Amateur Depression), then quickly sides on Severed Hand, Kill Shaman, HoZac, and Sweet Rot.s For the most part, those releases are now completely gone." -Sacred Bones |

Artist: NEUHAUS, MAX Title: Zyklus Format: CD Label: Alga Marghen Country: Italy Price: $17.00 |
| Four previously unreleased realizations of "Zylus" (different recordings than the one featured on the Columbia LP Electronics and Percussion -- Five Realizations (CD: SICC 79). Recorded 1959-68. "The term New York School refers to a circle of composers "Zyklus was written in 1959 and is one of the first solo pieces to utilize such a large number of percussion instruments (twenty one). When Neuhaus first started to play this piece there were only three percussionists in the world who could play it. Stockhausens idea was that a performer would play the piece spontaneously, making its complex decisions on the fly. No one played it this way; it was too difficult. Everyone wrote out his own version of the score and played from it. Coming from the world of jazz Neuhaus decided he wanted to take up the challenge of playing it spontaneously. At that time percussionists generally played only one instrument at a time. Playing twenty one simultaneously was unheard of. Neuhaus quickly realized that the only way to do it, in fact, was to think of all them together as just one instrument, one multi-surfaced bank of timbre. Neuhaus decided to travel to Europe and go to Darmstadt where Stockhausen was teaching. He wanted to talk to him about the piece. Stockhausen was interested in the idea that the twenty one instruments had to be physically formed into one instrument and that so much work had been done already. So he offered Neuhaus the big opportunity to perform Zyklus on the first American tour. Stockhausen came over to New York to hear Neuhaus play, but he wasnt satisfied with the improvisation version. It was too long. Neuhaus was determined to teach himself how to do it for this tour. He had another six months. He got down to seven minutes; and he was still improvising, not writing it out. He was ready to play that piece, and played it like nobody had ever heard it before. Each of these four recordings is a document of a true solo performance, one person and two hands, with no additional live help and no overdubbing. This CD also offers four different kinds of beauty, four proofs that the latitude that Stockhausen allowed, when capitalized on by a performer with creative imagination, could validate Stockhausen as a composer and an entire aesthetic of freedom and control. This edition includes a 12 pages booklet with original photos of both official concerts and performances for invited audiences, Max Neuhaus own comments on the original score and an editorial note by John Rockwell." - Alga Marghen. |

Not only will listening to this music take your mind off how youll manage paying off your debts and surrendering your soul to the ruling elite, but its almost a soundtrack manifesto justifying a great "career move" where you can uproot your pathetic and truly meaningless life in Western society and relocate to the great inner-peninsula of Southeast Asia. This is what you could be listening to when you move into that cheap apartment overlooking the Chao Phraya River: some roots "Molarm beat" from the Lao countryside, creamy Khmer ballads and Cambodian Rock, with a dash of Bangkok big city pop. Dig this template of tropical seduction, from rural to urban, through thick sewage and pristine rice paddies, side-steppin the sex tourist industry just enough to make this disc legal to purchase. On second thought, stay where you are and dont ruin it for the rest of us whose souls are firmly embedded in the great tunnels beneath the underground cities of Angkor stretching their way to the sewers of Soi Cowboy.

Galvanized by exposure to thousands of South East Asian cassette tapes, LPs and radio broadcasts harvested during years of travels (co-founder Mark Gergis is a key conspirator with international record label Sublime Frequencies), the 7-piece group play folk and pop sounds from Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia, Vietnam and elsewhere, using a variety of Western and non-Western instruments.

| Also including members Mark Levinson and Bruce Langhorne. "This is what can be called one of the major sensations in the raga influenced psychedelic/acid folk field. Also some of the earliest recordings in this genre and hitherto unreleased. After the release of the Light of Day album in 1966 the now legendary Pat Kilroy and Susan Graubard went on with playing and creating music together. What you hear on this album is what they recorded for Warner Brothers in the summer of 1967, a true groundbreaking adventure of the highest order. They expanded in the direction they started in 1966 and the result is far beyond and superior to everything I heard from that time period before in this musical style except for Tim Buckley. No wonder that it didnt come out at that time because those recordings were for sure far too adventurous for Warner Brothers and also for almost other leading music companies at the time. Incredible -- and I mean INCREDIBLE raga influenced psychedelic/acid folk with some of the best songwriting I know of with monstrous lyrics and deep lead vocals. Also a wide range of instruments were played like incredible raga-esque acoustic guitar, electric bass, Spanish cowbells, bell tree, silver flute, bamboo flutes, viola, tamboura, conga drums, tables, acoustic and electric bass and tambourine. Pat Kilroy sadly died of Hodgkins disease in December of 1967 at a very young age. If this record had a proper release at the time, it would be a major classic and a milestone today in the psychedelic history book. This CD release contains six superb never before released bonus tracks recorded at Warner Brothers Studios and KPFA-FM radio station during 1967. Be ready for an incredible musical trip along with an amazing, long and very intense story behind." -All Around |

Artist: NEW BLOCKADERS Title: Changez les Blockeurs: 21st Antiversary Edition Format: Double LP Box Set Label: Vinyl-On-Demand Country: Germany Price: $80.00 |
|
"250 numbered box-set reissue of Changez les Blockeurs including the unreleased 83 Live LP. Changez Les Blockeurs was originally issued in 1982, in a private edition of 100 copies, later issued on CD by the Urthona label and is one of the universal icons of post-Industrial "noise". Very hard to find for quite some time, now its sorta available again, if only briefly. The live LP is called First Live Performance and features a show from Morden Tower, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, recorded 6/8/83; issued here for the first time. Packed together in a heavy duty box. "Luigi Russolo is widely credited as being the first major noise theorist with his 1913 Art Of Noise manifesto. And, of course, composers like Arnold Schoenberg, John Cage and Karlheinz Stockhausen played their part in breaking with classically established harmonic systems. Lou Reeds epochal Metal Machine Music signposted a way of breaking free of the impasse created by the endgames of the mid-20th century avant garde... But contemporary noise artists like The New Blockaders and Einsturzende Neubauten were the first to progress from the use of noise as assault on tonality to the development of a rich, complex language capable of subtelties of shades and nuance without sacrificing any of its feral power or ability to unlock repressed personae in the listener..." - The Wire.

Artist: NEW BLOCKADERS Title: Falten Format: 10" Label: Hypnagogia Country: UK Price: $16.00 |
|
"The New Blockaders appear to be going out with a bang and with vinyl being the ultimate archival material Im glad to see that theres some serious input here. Falten is actually a 10 inch single with sounds by Rupenus, mixed by Anomali. And its another serious slab of TNB with every inch of groove filled with testing material. Huge swirls of rotor blade crunch, sudden leaps in voltage, whipped up frequency storms, the sound of a million man army on the march. TNB give you more to think about and digest than a hundred pale imitators. This is heady, brain loosening material for those who wish to explore the outer edges of what music and more pertinently noise has to offer. Buy at any cost." - IDWAL FISHER. Numbered editon of 400.

"Sheer sheets of onanistic sound ruin the rack and explode across the consciousness. Imagine what it wouldve been like to hear this in 1982, when it was completely new and very few frames of reference were hanging on any wall, anywhere. This is the hard rain thats promised to fall -- this sound is a rage against loneliness in one of the loneliest places on earth while pursuing one of the loneliest forms of expression. Totally interstellar, completely vital, utterly timeless." -- Freq. "Tracks originally released on History Of Nothing CD (Siren). This is their first appearance on vinyl! Recorded 1982-1992. Limited edition of 300 copies, B+W labels, B+W insert, heavy duty silk-screened covers w/ the usual Hanson Droll-Flaps." -Hanson

"Meta-Klamauk seems to return us to that garage of doom featured on Changez Les Blockeurs, only by now the mechanics have installed a noisy fan-heater device, and they are getting a lot more work done. Crincum-Crancum is, relatively speaking, a near-musical concoction. Perhaps twenty plus years hath mellowed their saturnine psyche and dulled their appetite for relentless noise; this is less urgent, and theres almost an air of resigned weariness to this 2002 work. That said, it is no less bilious, the reservoir of hatred still fuells the evil intent." --The Sound Projector. "Both sides originally appeared on the Gesamtnichtswerk 4CD boxset (Hypnagogia). This is their first appearance on vinyl! Limited edition of 300 copies, full color labels, heavy duty silk-screened covers w/ the usual Hanson Droll-Flaps." -Hanson

Artist: NEW BLOCKADERS/PUTREFIER Title: Schliefmittelbögen Format: LP Label: Birthbiter Country: UK Price: $31.00 |
| "After a long silence Birthbiter has returned with the sounds of nihilism reverberating in its ears as the label releases the long anticipated collaboration between The New Blockaders and Putrefier. Schleifmittelbögen is something of a return to form for TNB and Putrefier while also offering fresh interpretations of earlier work such as Changez les Blockuers, Pulp and Salute. Acoustic and field recordings are used to create unexpected sounds that punctuate the work, adding a new dimension to the all out sonic assault you have come to expect from these two artists. The cracking of tiles being extracted from a roof, the creak of a rusty sewing machine table combined with a variety of natural sounds will make this a surprise to anyone who thinks there is everything to know about TNB and Putrefier. TNBs philosophy needs no introduction. Renowned plunderers of Dadaism, neo-Dadaism and nihilism, they have reinterpreted art/politico theory and history. Putrefiers approach has been to mix shards of acoustic sound, beat them up and throw them back into the melting pot. The presence of Luigi Russolos Intonarumori looms large in both artists work The LP is limited to 500 copies and comes housed in a full colour sleeve." - Birthbiter. |

"Originally released as a limited CD by Hospital Productions in 2005. This is the equally
limited LP version with variant artwork. TNB is arguably the most notorious and interesting
proponent of ground zero UK noise/industrial history. A mysterious and oddly evocative
practitioner of abstract noise purpose TNB has released some of the most consistently
challenging recordings of the genre. What we have here is ORourke on one side and
Moore on the other taking TNB "music" and collaborating with it in distinctly different
ways: ORourke utilizing the free-life percussion power of Chris Corsano and Moore
employing the spirit-index of shortwave. 500 Copies." - Ecstatic Peace.

Artist: NEW CREATION, THE Title: Troubled Format: CD Label: Companion Country: USA Price: $15.00 |
|
"Welcome to the first commercial release of Troubled, the sole output from Vancouver, British Columbias all-but-forgotten Jesus rock trio, the New Creation. Originally pressed in 1970 in the vinyl LP format in a limited run, this album never quite made it out of its hometown borders. It would be another two or three decades before anyone outside of the groups small circle would hear it at all. The obscurity of this album is impossible to overstate. Only 100 vinyl copies were ever produced and none were available commercially. The New Creation were partly inspired by the music of the Jesus People movement, a Christian adaptation of the 60s movement, which shared the same Haight-Ashbury district birthplace. Jesus People patterned their language, fashion, and music after their hippie neighbors in an attempt to update their expression of faith. This street level movement gained mainstream media exposure around 1970 and within a year cover stories ran in Newsweek, Life, and U.S. News and World Report. Musicians in this scene plotted their own course in an attempt to counteract what they saw as the destructive themes in much of mainstream rock music. Acts born out of this grassroots movement would inspire believers worldwide to cut their own record -- contract or no contract." - Companion. "A showcase of raw, inventive musicality. Categorically, its -- I dunno -- Sixties Garage Godcore? Yet it transcends being a mere period piece. The songwriting is deliriously brilliant, the lyrical perspective haunting. The bands sincerity is unquestionable, even if its meters are unfathomable." - Irwin Chusid.

Artist: NEW DAWN Title: Theres a New Dawn Format: LP Label: Jackpot Country: USA Price: $20.00 |
| "THE NEW DAWNs Theres A New Dawn has been hailed as one of the rarest and best psych albums to come out of the late 60s and early 70s.

Artist: NEW HUMANS Title: Disassociate Format: LP Label: Avant Savant Country: USA Price: $17.00 |
|
"A line drawn in space gradually separates into countless pieces leaving a specter of its former self. On New Humans second release, Disassociate, each track undergoes geometric growth and decay through multiple passing states. With over 25 names for each track, the recording opens with a drone monolith later destabilizing into undulating segments and then finally shattering into a series of interlocking parts. Recorded and engineered by Sean Maffucci at Junkyard Audio Salvage in Brooklyn, the expansive compositions employ an array of sonic and beat combinations created by electric guitars, acoustic drums, oscillators, and handmade effects. In its transformations, each momentary form gives way to the next creating incidental tangents with minimalist drone, early synth music, extreme noise, and Miami trunk bass. For best results play recording at high volume in continuous sequence with subwoofer or substantial low frequency sound system. Vinyl edition of 300 features hand silk-screened glow-in-the dark jacket design and oversized poster insert. Released on Avant/Savant (Mexico City, New York)"

Artist: NEW HUMANS Title: New Humans Format: CDR Label: New Humans Country: USA Price: $12.00 |
| "On New Humans new self-titled CD, the minimalist impulse is harnessed across disparate lines to create raw and improbable compositions, rendering an almost visual experience to listening. Unraveled, deconstructed and repurposed: sonic passages and genre motifs are treated as block and geometric progressions of sound, noise and rhythm. From the systematic meltdown of Sabbath-like doom riffage to the relentless super deformation of Riley and Brancas legacy, each track builds and clear cuts at the same time documenting a body of performances and installation projects by the New Humans in the past two years. New Humans is a hand silk-screened limited edition CD of 200 with custom insert." - New Humans. |

Artist: NEW HUMANS/VITO ACCONCI/C. SPENCER YEH Title: AKA Format: CD Label: Semishigure Country: Germany Price: $20.00 |
| "Noise surrounds and permeates us, and no one is more responsible than the New Humans from that loudest and noisiest of metropolises: New York. From installation art to ear splitting live concerts, this infernal power trio lead by artist Mika Tajimi eschews no collaboration, no matter how insane. Guitarist and artistic leader Tajimi is supported by electronics specialist and voice acrobat Howie Chen, drummer Eric Tsai, as well as a large number of guest musicians. The New Humans like nothing more than to drag friend and foe with them into their noise avalanches. Semishigure proudly presents the fourth release, a unique live collaboration with artist Vito Acconci, a pioneer of body/conceptual art, and vintage experimentalist C. Spencer Yeh. This album consists of two concerts that took place during an exposition of the collective at the Elizabeth Dee Gallery in New York. Two electrifying, memorable performances that just had to be registered on CD. The last time American performance legend Vito Acconci collaborated with a band was more than ten years ago, when he worked with punk rock brigade the Mekons. A similarly untainted, classically grim punk attitude shines through in his spoken word performance with the New Humans. ⿿You in the Background is the name of their jointly raised middle finger to the world. Floating on the ominously swelling waves of noise created by the New Humans, Acconci throws all frustrations overboard. Captive to a feverish, shamanic trip, Acconci speaks of each and everyones search for their own identity. Acconci has made a special selection from his audio works for the occasion. Texts such as ⿿Now do you believe the dirty dogs are dead (1978) and ⿿Cry, baby! (1977) still sound like screams for enlightenment and liberation. C. Spencer Yehs plaintive violin careens into the impenetrable wailing wall of feedback. The New Humans not just voice, but scream their anger of life under the Bush regime, and in Acconci they have found a worthy ally. C. Spencer Yeh and the New Humans go the whole hog on the second live concert, an immensely loud drone séance lasting half an hour. Like no other, radical violinist Yeh manages to infiltrate any collective, be it Dream/Aktion Unit, Comets of Fire or Smegma. Through his trademark exorcising Velvets violin sound Yeh manages to create unbearable tension with the New Humans sound avalanches in hot pursuit. During the performance, a glass sculpture is destroyed and the noise of its breaking amplified. At any moment the waves of noise terror threaten to submerge Yeh, but he stands firm. Thank God this all-engulfing live experience has been registered for posterity!" -Semishigure. |

Artist: NEW MIMINOKOTO Title: All About Mimi Format: CD Label: PSF Country: Japan Price: $21.00 |
| "Another first release on PSF for Miminokoto, a Tokyo-based garage psychedelic rock trio who have previously released a string of acclaimed albums on the Alchemy, Gyuune, Siwa and Last Visible Dog labels. This is the groups first album since Junzo Suzuki (20 Guilders, Astral Travelling Unity, ex Overhang Party) took over on vocals and guitar. The key to this group has always been their deep sense of song -- a densely emotive core around which the songs surge, billow and break. That core is retained here with an even harder psychedelic edge to the guitar. Includes two covers of songs by the late Jutok Kaneko of Kousokuya. Forty minutes, seven tracks." -- Alan Cummings |

At Instal Fest 08 in Glasgow, Scotland, at David Keenans suggestion, the idea for a trio of Don Dietrich, Ben Hall and himself was hatched. As the idea for the tour came together, Keenan unfortunately had to step out for personal reasons. CSY graciously accepted to take his place, and what was originally to be an acoustic Babi Music cover band became the electro-acoustic behemoth The New Monuments. Sharing a common head for so-called abstract sound constructions, the members come from related, though diverse, musical backgrounds. With saxophone, violin, and trapset, they attempt to soundtrack the maiden voyage of a luxury cruise ship constructed solely out of granite cement and ball bearings." -Important |

Artist: NEWBURY, MICKEY Title: An American Trilogy Format: 4 CD Box Set Label: Drag City Country: USA Price: $34.00 |
| "The release of Mickey Newburys An American Trilogy 4xCD box in May of this year was a moment for a serious reconsideration of one of Americas finest lost songwriters. The late Mickey Newburys heyday in the late 1960s and 1970s seems long ago now, but his music is a continued vital force, as was proven by the quick selling through of a limited edition deluxe version of the box-set. Now that this has gone, there are still more who want to and need to know about this music. With this in mind, we are presenting an unlimited edition version with a few less bells and whistles, but all the great music and a still-fat-and-informative version of the accompanying booklet. The albums that constitute An American Trilogy - Looks Like Rain, Frisco Mabel Joy and Heaven Help the Child - were recorded between 1969 and 1973 at a home studio in Madison, Tennessee. Cinderella Sound was a converted two-car garage adjacent to the house of guitarist and engineer Wayne Moss - but you would never know this based on the magisterial sound of these albums, which are regarded as prime works in Mickeys recorded canon. The set is released in a custom-made digipak folder produced in association with Grammy winning designer Susan Archie, who designed the Albert Ayler Holy Ghost and Charlie Patton Screamin and Hollerin the Blues box sets. The package includes a fourth CD of rarities, alternate versions and a 1970 radio session recorded for Los Angeles DJ Skip Weshner. The 28-page booklet features rare photos from the Newbury family archives and extensive liner notes. If you havent already been, An American Trilogy provides a rich and compelling trip to the deep space of Mickey Newbury, one of the most extraordinary and unique artists in American popular music." - Drag City. |

Deluxe release in high quality carton cover, 180g vinyl, an insert with photos and extensive liner-notes." -Guerssen.

Artist: NGOZI FAMILY Title: 45,000 Volts Format: LP Label: Nosmoke Country: Portugal Price: $31.00 |

The Ngozi Family (Ngozi means danger, and dangerous is their music indeed!) were also the band backing for Chrissy Tembo on his now well-known My Ancestors album. They released this one in 1977, and youll be amazed when you hear it if youre somehow into Hendrix, Black Sabbath, heavy psychedelia or Afro psych-rock. Most of the tracks on the LP follow that direction, and the rest enter the Afrobeat sound -- but most of it is fuzzy, heavy psych-rock as you can expect. This release has a surprising high quality sound and is limited to 600 copies only. One of the rarest rock albums of the whole world!!! Get it while you can!!!" -Nosmoke. |

The guitars are razor-sharp here, which sounds great next to the harder rhythms at the bottom, and the albums mix of English and Zambian lyrics.

Artist: NHKKOYXEN Title: Dance Classics Vol. I Format: LP Label: Pan Country: UK Price: $27.00 |
|
"Born in Osaka, Kouhei Matsunaga is a musician and an illustrator. He started drawing during childhood under the influence of his grandfather. He grew up listening to hardcore techno and hip-hop, studied architecture and has been mainly making music since 1992. Under many different aliases (NHK, NHKyx, Internet Magic, Koyxen) he has released numerous albums on labels such as Skam Records, Wordsound, Raster-Noton and his first-ever album Upside Down on Mille Plateaux in 1998. He has also collaborated with artists like Merzbow, Jungle Brothers Sensational, Autechres Sean Booth, Mika Vainio, Conrad Schnitzler, Anti Pop Consoriums High Priest, Rudolf Eb.er, Puppetmastaz crew, Asmus Tietchens, Ralf "RLW" Wehowsky and so on. His own label Flying Swimming was founded in 2002 with the main purpose of publishing and curating experimental contemporary music and art events. Dance Classics Vol. I documents his more dance-oriented material, as seen from his sets with Sensational and also his other minimal techno project, NHK. Not feeling tied down to one genre, Matsunaga nestles in the PAN roster, but that isnt to say that his is any kind of ordinary dance music. As witnessed from his recent collaborations with Conrad Schnitzler, the album focuses more on bass/base electronics, music for the dancefloor and/or altered state reflection. Having composed pieces for WDR based on Henry Chopin, Kouhei is equally at ease jamming with Sensational, while simultaneously executing an obsessively numerical sequence of dance pieces that border on Hanne Darboven-like compulsivity. Limited edition of 500 copies, pressed on 140 gram vinyl in a poly-lined inner sleeve, packaged in a pro-press color jacket which itself is housed in a silk-screened PVC sleeve with artwork by Kathryn Politis & Bill Kouligas. Mastered and cut by Rashad Becker at Dubplates & Mastering." -Pan.

Not feeling tied down to one genre, Matsunaga nestles in the Pan roster. That isnt to say, however, that he is dance per se, as witnessed from his recent collaborations with Conrad Schnitzler. The album focuses more on bass/base electronics, music for the dancefloor and/or altered-state reflection. Having composed pieces for WDR based on Henri Chopin, Kouhei is equally at ease jamming with Sensational, while simultaneously executing an obsessively numerical sequence of dance pieces that borders on Hanne Darboven-like compulsivity. Born in Osaka, Kouhei Matsunaga is a musician and an illustrator. He grew up listening to hardcore techno and hip-hop, studied architecture, and has been mainly making music since 1992. Under many different aliases (NHK, NHKyx, Internet Magic, Koyxen) he has released numerous albums on labels such as Skam Records, Wordsound, Raster Noton, and his first-ever album Upside Down on Mille Plateaux in 1998. He has also collaborated with artists like Merzbow, Jungle Brothers Sensational, Autechres Sean Booth, Mika Vainio, Conrad Schnitzler, Anti Pop Consoriums High Priest, Rudolf Eb.er, Puppetmastaz crew, Asmus Tietchens, Ralf "RLW" Wehowsky and so on. The LP is mastered and cut by Rashad Becker at Dubplates & Mastering and pressed on 140 gram vinyl. It is packaged in a pro-press color jacket which itself is housed in a silk screened PVC sleeve with artwork by Kathryn Politis & Bill Kouligas." - Pan. |

Artist: NIBLOCK, PHILL Title: Six Films (1966-1969) Format: DVD Label: Die Schachtel Country: Italy Price: $27.00 |
| "Die Schachtel in collaboration with O artspace proudly presents a deluxe DVD featuring six experimental films by New York-based composer, photographer and filmmaker Phill Niblock from the late-1960s. Anybody familiar with Niblock would probably characterize his work by the sound of his long, sonorous drones, producing rich overtones usually combined with a visual element -- since before moving into composition, Niblock was an active photographer and filmmaker. While he usually is known for his films from the Movement Of People Working series alongside performances of his music, Niblocks early works stand apart as unique objects. The integrity and consistency of his style is fully on display in these seldomly-seen or screened 16mm sound films wonders that include: Morning (1966-1969) from an idea by Phill Niblock and Jean Claude Van Itallie, filmed by PN, text by Lee Worley and Michael Corner, with members of the Open Theater group. Starring Lee Worley, James Barbosa, Cynthis Harris, Sharon Gans, Joseph Chaikin; text read by Lee Worley, James Barbosa, Barbara Porte, Dorothy Lyman, Michael Corner. Black & white 16mm film. The Magic Sun (1966-1968) with members of the Sun Ra Arkestra, music by Sun Ra and the Arkestra. Filmed on high-contrast black & white 16mm film. Dog Track (1969) -- a film by Phill Niblock, with a found text read by Barbara Porte. Color 16mm film. Annie (1968) -- a portrait of the dancer Ann Danoff, with a sound collage soundtrack. Color 16mm film. Max (1966-19) -- an image collage film/portrait of percussionist/sound-artist Max Neuhaus, with a collage soundtrack by Max Neuhaus. Black & white 16mm film. Raoul (1968-1969) -- a portrait of the painter Raoul Middleman, with extensive use of time-lapse film technique. The soundtrack is improvised by Raoul Middleman and Phill Niblock. Color 16mm film. Limited edition of 500 copies. NTSC, all-region DVD, stereo, 4:3 format. Run-time: 65 minutes." -Die Schachtel |

Artist: NIBLOCK, PHILL Title: The Movement Of People Working Format: DVD Label: Extreme Country: Australia Price: $22.00 |
| New version (with slightly revised visuals, same video and audio content) of this classic Niblock DVD release, originally from 2003. Double-sided DVD; Total time: 3 hours, 28 min. Features 6 short movies (25 to 70 minutes each), plus separate 5.1 DVD-Audio tracks. "This DVD collects a number of Niblocks documentary films analyzing the dynamics of motion involved in manual labor. The images on the disc are all accompanied by Niblocks own minimalist approach to soundtracking. Niblock started making these films back in 1973, upon visiting Mexico and Peru. It was here that he set out on his observation of the impersonal machinations of work. These films concentrate specifically on the work of human hands, both in terms of crafts, like weaving, and on the more industrial scale of farming, as is focused on by the films shot in Hungary, made in 1985 (the most recent work here). In this Hungarian sequence a man reaps in a field using an old-fashioned scythe: the workers rhythmic torsional movements are beautifully mirrored by Niblocks droning woodwind, as the composer continually renews his breath and restarts on the same pitch, replicating the visual cycle of unbroken repetition. Later on, we see a close-up of a woman milking a cow. Again, a rhythmic structure is established in both visual and auditory terms. Its pretty bewitching stuff considering how simple the component elements are. In addition to the conceptual success of the piece - which finds Niblock evoking a powerful sense of existential non-movement - he amply shows off his chops both as a filmmaker and a composer. The films here were produced on beautiful Kodachrome print stock, while the music is utterly timeless, the kind of infinite-chord drone work that only the very best artists in the genre can come up with. Magnificent." -Extreme. NTSC format, multi-zone format. 5.1 audio. |

Phill Niblock is a New York-based minimalist composer and multi-media musician and director of Experimental Intermedia, a foundation born in the flames of 1968s barricade hopping. He has been a maverick presence on the fringes of the avant garde ever since. In the history books Niblock is the forgotten Minimalist. His influence has had more impact on younger composers such as Susan Stenger, Lois V. Vierk, David First, and Glenn Branca." - Touch. |

Artist: NIBLOCK, PHILL + SUN RA & HIS SOLAR ARKESTRA Title: The Magic Sun Format: DVD Label: Atavistic Country: USA Price: $14.00 |
| "The classic 1966 film by Phill Niblock featuring Sun Ra & His Solar Arkestra, plus rare & exclusive Sun Ra footage, photos & audio proclamations! Composer, photographer and filmmaker Phill Niblocks classic of experimental underground filmmaking with a sensational soundtrack by pianist Sun Ra and the members of his Solar Arkestra. Shot in the mid 60s, when the Arkestra was based in New York, this film was produced using a unique negative process and ultra-tight close-ups on the moving hands and mouths of the musicians. The result is a virtually abstract music film, mastered from a new print in all its incredibly sharp black & white glory. The Magic Sun DVD also includes a luminous, largely unseen photo gallery accompanied by 14:00 of unheard, self-recorded Ra audio: a truly inside auto-bio interview; TRT approx 32:00."

"Mnemonic Device" is a slower plodding mid-tempo song driven by a hypnotic repeating keyboard line and fuzzed out vocals. "Situation Is Facing Utter Annihilation" on the flip is the punkest Nice Face track to date bridging the gulf between disjointed no-fi punk rock and sinister synth and drum machine derangement.

Artist: NICHE MAKERS Title: Soul Sealed the Deal Format: LP Label: Ten Rounds Country: USA Price: $25.00 |
 "Trippy new musical projects by Raymond Pettibon are a cause for great excitement around here. His cryptic lyrics are a kind of sound poetry: cliches and truisms are deformed, devolved and reconnected in oddly intuitive ways, leaving literal meaning to wallow in the dust of free association and lolling wordplay. The squeezebox-led folkies behind him play it sympathetic and warm, but are ultimately secondary to Ray’s very personal verbage. Anyone following this man’s musical development will note this is as fucked up and peculiar as his work with SUPER SESSION, SUR DRONE, and more recently with THE UNKNOWN INSTRUCTORS. Oh and the color LP cover is a beautiful mystery to behold."

Songs to date, which were composed in the mid 1950s at a time when

Songs were composed in the manner of Mother Goose rhymes and are
infused with his own rendering of alchemy and the Kaballah.

| Live at La Salle St. Fridolin, Mulhouse 1 June 2004 during the second NSB European tour. A word about Hugh and The Nihilist Spasm Band by John Boyle: "The Nihilist Spasm Band began in the summer of 1965 in London, Ontario as an informal kazoo band of friends making a soundtrack for a film by the late artist Greg Curnoe. We soon built new, louder electric instruments. We played noise music because we did not know how to play real music. In 1969 we toured Europe for the first time, playing at the Paris Biennale des Jeunes and at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London, England. It was not until 2004 that we toured Europe again, playing at Vandoeuvre-les-Nancys festival Musique Action, in Montreuil, in Hasselt, Belgium and in Mulhouse. This proved to be the last tour for Hugh McIntyre, our bassist for 39 years. Three months later, he died of heart failure. The very last night he played at our regular Monday night gig, members of R.E.M. showed up and jammed with us till 2 in the morning. Hugh had a wonderful time and went to hear their concert the next evening. This final recording of Hugh with the Spasm Band in Mulhouse is dedicated to his memory." - Les Mondes Mental. |

Artist: NIRMALA, TIRATH SINGH Title: Bluster, Cragg, & Awe Format: CD Label: Digitalis Country: USA Price: $11.00 |
| "Not too long ago, John Clyde-Evans made a huge splash with his phenomenal solo LP on Englands Fisheye imprint. He also performed as an important member of the seminal UK group, Hood. After taking a seven year hiatus and committing to the path of Sikhism, he returned as Tirath Singh Nirmala. His continually unfolding backstory is interesting enough, but its his music where the real magic and mystery stretch their silver wings. Nirmala returned to making music after his close friend and collaborator, Vibracathedral Orchestras Neil Campbell, gave him some free software and set him on his way. Nirmala responded with nearly a dozen self-released, highly limited CD-Rs. The releases were filled to the brim with Eastern-influenced, transcendental drones and uplifting spiritual sound explorations. His manipulation of sine waves and use of obscure Asian instruments creates a wholly original and unique sound. As on his solo LP as John Clyde-Evans, Nirmalas ability to concoct sprawling, majestic drones using such simple terms is unmatched. Bluster, Cragg, & Awe, Nirmalas first non-CD-R release, is the perfect beginning. It collects the best tracks from those now impossible-to-find releases and adds one new song and one collaborative piece with Scottish guitar guru, Richard Youngs. It is a journey that lasts less than an hour, but contains a lifetime of aural experience, wrapped into one, shimmering golden package. Oh yes, Tirath Singh Nirmala has returned." - Digitalis. |

The recording project of RAMONA GONZALEZ, Nite Jewel crashed the party a few years back with the now-classic "Good Evening," and won legions of new fans with her recent second long player One Second Of Love.

But this record has a mission-to spotlight a duo flying just under the radar for more than 30 years now: brothers CLIVE & MARK IVES of WOO. Working in a variety of instrumental forms, WOO features a pulsing sound as distinctive and additive as anything by Kraftwerk or ESG.

This was not only one of the strongest and most powerful aktionen by Hermann Nitsch but also a crucial point in the development of his art. Beginning in 1977, Beate Nitsch was travelling in Schwarzwald. She has been inaugurating a nursery-school and wanted to meet some relatives in Stuttgart when, near Ulm, she had a terrible car accident. Beate had supported her husbands art not only sharing the sentimental part of their life but also actively collaborating to the organization of his work. She organized the purchase of a castle in Prinzendorf, the central place where Nitsch would develop his Orgien Mysterien Theater. For Hermann Nitsch, this loss was a complete collapse. He suddenly felt to be on the opposite side of life, alone and full of despair. In those days, he reached the deepest point of black unhappiness. Nitsch decided then to go Naples where he organized a Lehraktion at Morra Gallery. His friend Kubelka joined him from the USA. During the Lehraktion, he was told about a big Performance Festival that would have taken place in Bologna. Nitsch was invited to participate with an aktion to be performed in a big old church. It was clear to Nitsch that he would have conceived an aktion dedicated to the memory of Beate. A requiem, even. Before the aktion in Bologna, Hermann Nitschs music was basically released as a wall of noise. The musicians could play what they wanted and the only instruction was to play as loud as possible. Only the duration, the starting point and the noise level of each instrument was fixed. For the first time with the Requiem, Nitsch started to conceive longer tone clusters, specially for the wind instruments. The perfect acoustics of the church with its wonderful organ, which shocked Nitsch with its intensity and power, suggested him a new direction in music. Among the lucky audience were many friends coming from all over the world to witness the event. For everyone the Requiem was an important and ecstatic experience. The big success of the aktion gave Nitsch the strength to continue his work. Shortly after Bologna he was invited to create new aktionen in Canada and Los Angeles. First time 2CD edition, in tri-folded digipack, reproducing the impossible-to-find 3LP art gallery edition issued in Naples in 1977 for the Radiotaxi series. Including a 12-page folded insert with drawings and directions from the LP boxset original graphics. This edition also includes a 32-page shocking full color photo documentation of the aktion, for the first time available now. Edition of 1000 copies." - Alga Marghen. |

Artist: NITSCH, HERMANN Title: Sinfonia Punta Campanella Format: CD Box Set Label: Fondazione Morra Country: Italy Price: $35.00 |
|
"Music plays a fundamental role in the life and work of Hermann Nitsch. It has always been one of the founding elements of his Orgien Misterien Theater (Theatre of Orgies and Mysteries). The initial use of music as purely functional to action was later replaced with a necessity for autonomous composition, in which music finds its own role, independent from the theatrical sphere. The Punta Campanella Symphony is a clear example of an expression of the autonomous activity of Nitsch the composer. Here, it is possible to see all the fundamental elements of his poetics. The aesthetic and Dionysian dimension are clearly announced by the continuous play of construction and destruction of musical forms. The highly dramatic dimension is rendered extreme by the extended crescendo and by a play of contrasts which go from chiarissimo to scurissimo. Performed by Orchestra Xenarmonica del Conservatorio di Palermo including more than 40 musicians plus local folk bands, this Symphony in four movements was recorded during the World Premiere on September 22, 2004 at Punta Campanella, Naples, in front of the Capri Island at sunset. Luxury full colour digipack and slipcase, including a 28-page booklet with photos from the event, scores, as well as two essays titled The O.M. Theaters Music and Punta Campanella Symphony. Privately issued by the art gallery that organised the performance in order to document the event."

Artist: NITSCH, HERMANN Title: The Action Art of Hermann Nitsch from Past to Present Format: DVD/CD Label: Edition Krothenhayn Country: Germany Price: $108.00 |
| "Super deluxe DVD & CD set. The Action art of Hermann Nitsch from past to present Actions, 1962-2003 (1 DVD; this DVD is in European PAL format only and not compatible with some/many DVD players in the US) plus a CD with the recordings from the 2005 Burgtheater performance. Hand-numbered edition of 1000 copies. The packaging consists of a slip lid box with banderole, containing an 80-page book with photos and text. Disputed and celebrated: Hermann Nitsch, Actionist and painter, composer and stage designer. He is one of the most renowned Austrian artists of today and nevertheless still divides the art world as before. Nitsch belongs beside Günter Brus, Otto Mühl and Rudolf Schwarzkogler as one of the most important main actors of Viennese Actionism. At the beginning of the 60s he carried out his first "Actions" in Vienna, which involved several trials and three terms of imprisonment. His main work, "Orgy Mystery Theatre," the bloody, sacrilegious meat-play inspired by Greek mythology, Antonin Artaud and Sigmund Freud, was the defining work of his career, and has established and influenced Actionist performance representations in contemporary art ever since. On this DVD there is a 4-hour overview of all of Nitschs "Actions" from 1962-2003, as well as an interview from 2005. The 80-page book (German/English) which includes text by Florian Schreiner and numerous photos, explains the theoretical basis of Nitschs work. On the CD are recordings of the 122nd "Action" at the Burgtheater of Vienna in November of 2005.

Artist: NMPERIGN/JASON LESCALLEET Title: Love Me Two Times Format: Double CD Label: Intransitive Country: USA Price: $18.00 |
| "The highly anticipated double-CD epic by Jason Lescalleet (tape loops) and nmperign (Bhob Rainey - soprano sax, and Greg Kelley - trumpet). The result of six years of live and studio collaboration, LM2X is by far the most ambitious and uncompromising statement yet by this formidable trio. The album begins as a more-or-less straight documentary-style recording of group improvisation, but dont get too comfortable... over the course of the next two hours, the ground steadily shifts, the bottom drops out, and any expectations a listener may have had going in are thoroughly trampled. Fans will find the usual ingredients here: crusty old reel-to-reel tape decks, cheap keyboards, amplified and acoustic horns...but rude tape splices, violent humor, and confusingly degraded fidelity push the music far from safe territory. The visceral drama of LM2X does not neatly spell out its intentions, nor does it signal exactly what it has up its sleeve. It exists in its own universe, demands repeat listens and to be taken on its own terms." - Intransitive. |

Artist: NMPERIGN/SKELETONS OUT Title: Live 1978/Marvin Format: 7" Label: Editions Zero Country: Greece Price: $6.50 |
| "A rather nicely lo-fi packed 7" of two of the more intelligent noise projects around. On side A Greg Kelley and Bhob Rainey, otherwise known as Nmperign team up for one of their great pieces of improvised wind instrument mayhems. Mayhem as in silence meeting noise, but not the usual noise you may expect from someone like Merzbow. The controlled blowing of the two make a great fine interplay. The instruments as instrument and as objects. A fine piece. Skeletons Out are more a noise rock piece band, or so it seems. Howard Stelzer on cassettes and Jay Sullivan on turntable create a more straight forward piece of noise music that rocks the house. It sounds like a rock band with dark rumbling noise underneath and cracklings on top, all in true fierce noise mood. Much more heavy and linear than the other side, but great noise altogether." - Frans de Ward, Vital Weekly |

Equal parts backwards boogie and straight skullfucking confusion, "T-Bone Pt. 1" stomps one through hard and thick, slinging broken barn-boned riffs that collide head on with sputtering cross-eyed measures of brilliance and back again. "T-Bone Pt. 2" ensues after a quick flip to side B as you and your square-minded notions are slapped straight in the face with a wet hose spewing talkin box (!) snarl and ultimately delivers your blown mind on a broken piece of hobo-stew stained porcelain." - Noel Von Harmonson (Comets On Fire).

Others are quintessential NNCK moments, including the first session joined by Butoh princess Michiko Takahachi, who instantly became a permanent member.

"Previously, a boy dreams the dreams of many other boys. He meets three other boys and they dream together. Sadly, one of his co-dreamers dreams become nightmare. In an effort to avoid seeing their own dreams relegated back to sleeping, our hero and his fair dreaming compatriots leave their troubled friend to face his nightmares on his own. His nightcap is quickly filled and the boys march forward, eventually seeing all of their dreams made manifest.
In this installment our boy has become a man too accustomed to living his boy dreams. When he places his head upon his pillow these days there is nothing, as if there is nothing left to dream of. Perhaps his conspirators sense this? They dream apart now and our heros empty nights only serve to marginalize him from these other boys. Our man must be gifted with powers beyond the ordinary because, much as his boy dreams had become real, so too his man dreams of emptiness soon become his waking life. Unlike his lost troubled co-dreamer from years past, his nightmares are far too mundane for anyone to care about. He dies this way.
Special thanks to Charlie Gilmour, millionaire.

| "Locust is proud to announce the release of Clomeim, the new studio album from New Yorks No-Neck Blues Band. Clomeim is an evolution, a vital document of change in The No-Neck Blues Bands 15+ years of para-musical activity. This pivotal recording is a creative distillation of the collective at a new and startling saturation point. For three rainy days in March 2007, the seven-headed hydra that is NNCK holed up in Black Dirt Studios, their newly outfitted recording studio in the foothills of upstate New York. With a discipline and a clarity of vision theyve rarely displayed before, the collective channeled all of their energies into hours of recording live, real-time improvisation. After months spent sculpting and recasting the raw material, Clomeim emerged -- a distinct whole, recalling in its parts the communal howl of Algarnas Tradgard, the dead spirit channeling of Geino Yamashiro Gumi, the glacial shadowplay of Heresie era Univers Zero, and krautrock zenith Faust at their finest hour. Clomeim is that rare hybrid -- a rock exterior with a cryptic, experimental core; a dense groover and a burning, exploratory psychedelic grimoire for the new dark ages." -Locust |

| "Recorded close to the groups inception in 1994, Languid Red Marchetti is the NNCK sound in its empirical form, rhythmically a-linear and fundamentally abstract. While NNCK would go on to become a seven piece performing group, recording and touring extensively, this recording documents a smaller group of four original members engaged in the hermetically sealed sonic exploration which best locates their aesthetic origins. From the groups statement on Languid Red Marchetti: A proto-intuitive Latihan of feedback + pre-scaffold juxtaposition of layers which would come to constitute edifice, and eventually dwelling. Where we would soon occupy this sound, it here was a force in and of itself, its directionless propulsion compounding into substance and landscape. This deluxe edition Planam LP comes with a NNCK generated essay on sound imaging through improvisation and is packaged in a full color jacket depicting The hypothetical dissolve/corruption + subsequent inevitable repetition of Suprematism.

Have heard that this was largely recorded on a NYC rooftop, but you certainly cant hear any breeze -- there is, however, some serious driftage going on all over the place. Out-of-nowhere double album magnum opuses tend to go on to have genre defining significance, and its easy to see this one having research visibility for decades to come, as the pinnacle of its contemporary scene.

Artist: NO NECK BLUES BAND Title: Live At Kens Electric Lake Format: Double CD Label: Locust Country: USA Price: $20.00 |
| Reissue of this old S@1 48/49 double LP from 1998. "Nearly ten years of swimming up stream through the sonic flotsam & jetsam, the folks have gotten freaky, noise is the new noise, the chin scratchers have joined the metal circus and the No Neck Blues Band remain as relevant today as ever. Their indoor /outdoor audio assaults in upper & lower Manhattan are the stuff of legend but on 1998s Live at Kens Electric Lake the band took a distinct turn, crossed the Canadian border, hooked up w/ some Sunburned folks and made a sudden diaspora to a rural retreat in the country for a full days session of acid-head tribal percussion clatter that is utterly different than anything the band had put on the public record up to that time. Looser, groovier & more in that communal state of mind than ever, NNCKs long out-of-print fifth release from 1998 is a classic testament to the urban dwellers gone wild & ranks as among their finest displays of tribal churn and choogle in the bands 14 year history. Neo-Dada attacks were swapped out for psychedelic vibrations, midrange mystery for outdoor atmospherics. Kens is a peak communal moment for New Yorks most enigmatic, longest running experimental collective." - Locust. |

Artist: NO NECK BLUES BAND Title: YTIU Format: LP Label: Kelippah Country: USA Price: $17.00 |
| "No Neck Blues Band are the last of their kind, children of a New York City that no longer exists. Theyve operated in the shadows of Gothams music scene for almost 20 years as likely to perform in art galleries as loft spaces. No Neck Blues Band are revolutionaries, carrying on the search for freedom through improvisation that began after Coltrane liberated jazz. But No Neck Blues Band dont play jazz per se, or any other known idiom for that matter. Their sound has its precedents most notably the genre-blurring, early-70s work of Englands Third Ear Band and German groups Exmagma and recent co-conspirators Embryo. No Neck Blues Band further those explorers investigations of non-Western sounds by infusing them with psychedelic-rock dynamics, the tenets of minimalism and Fluxus-inspired performance. Each No Neck Blues Band record is a spontaneously composed ritual containing a variety of hard-to-pronounce acoustic instruments, unmoored percussion, guitars, keyboards and various electronics, at once familiar and exotic. While a few members have come and gone, No Neck Blues Band is Keith Connolly, Michiko, Jason Meagher, Pat Murano, David Nuss and David Shuford. No Neck Blues Band activity has been sparse in recent years since their celebrated rehearsal/performance space in Harlem, The Hint House, fell victim to gentrification. Recorded in 2009 at Faust Studios in Germany, YTIU is the avant-gangs latest offering and finds them in one of their more accessible moods. Only during the second half of Side As Platinum Willows does the band indulge its tendency for atonality. YTIUs second side fittingly dedicated to departed Pink Floyd member Richard Wright is a keyboard-dominated stunner that is more Saucerful of Secrets than The Wall. Mixed by Murano and released in an edition of 300 copies (vinyl, naturally) on his own label, Kelippah, YTIU is another exceptional document by one of the most vital bands New York City has ever birthed. Stream it below, and head here to see if there are any copies left."- Jeff Conklin, East Village Radio. Hand painted with iodine and Aqua-Net. Highly recommended!! |

Artist: NO NECK BLUES BAND & EMBRYO Title: EmbryoNNCK Format: CD Label: Staubgold Country: Germany Price: $15.00 |
| "New York mavericks No Neck Blues Band and Munich-based Krautrock band Embryo explore the indigenous urban music phenomenon on this, their debut collaborative release. The No Neck Blues Band are one of the most enigmatic, mysterious, and defiantly anti-commercial groups to emerge from the New York loft scene during the 90s. The collective was formed in 1992 around a core of multi-instrumentalists who have stubbornly and admirably insisted on individual anonymity. Incorporating elements of folk, drone, psychedelia, free jazz, noise, and just about everything else, NNCK have nevertheless carved out a distinctive sound from complementary and disparate component elements. One of the most original and innovative Krautrock bands, Embryo fused traditional ethnic music with their own jazzy space rock style. Over their 35+-year existence, during which Christian Burchard has been the only consistent member, the group has traveled the world, playing with hundreds of different musicians and releasing countless records. Melding their wildly diverse forays into experimental, blues, Middle Eastern, Turkish and African music, these two groups have since become brothers in unparalleled improvisatory spirit, and EmbryoNNCK is the fruit of that merge. To quote Christian Burchard, "The NNCK players were flying... Little melodies we never had heard, different moods, rhythmic interplays, and in between the musicmaking it was like we had been together all the time." This should be one of the most transcendent releases of the year. The CD version includes a 24-pages booklet with photos and linernotes. LP version is Sound @ One." - Staubgold. |

Artist: NO UFOS Title: Soft Coast Format: LP Label: Spectrum Spools Country: USA Price: $21.00 |
| "Here at Spectrum Spools, one of the many missions is to make sure great, under-documented, and limited offerings get a chance to see a wider release. No UFOs debut cassette, Soft Coast (2010, Nice Up Intl), is surely no exception. It was said about the Swell Maps A Trip to Marineville that the album had been obviously crafted by true music lovers who were record collectors. It seems that Konrad Jandavs debut as No UFOs was calculated and carefully pieced together to spawn a whole new universe from the omniverse of collective music, a feat which many attempt but few succeed. Lazy comparisons to Neu! and other such kraut-oriented material have bubbled up here and there, but Jandavs vision, as with any great recording artist, is all his own; a new perspective from looking at music past and present." -Spectrum Spools |

Artist: NO WAVE Title: Marc Masters Format: Book Label: Black Dog Publishing Country: UK Price: $30.00 |
| "No Wave traces the history of this influential genre from its most famous names down to its many offshoots and sidetracks. From early pioneers like Suicide and Glenn Branca, to forgotten treasures like Red Transistor and Bush Tetras, No Wave charts all the cracks and crevices of a surprisingly diverse movement. Flashing through the New York underground in the late 1970s, No Wave was the ultimate anti-movement. Its bands consisted of artists and poets untrained in music, looking to explode rock and disappear before the smoke cleared. The primary perpetrators - Lydia Lunchs howling Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, James Chances skeletal Contortions, the dark-noise groups Mars and DNA - all drew on primitivism, performance art, and the avant-garde. They were best known for short songs and even shorter life-spans. The book also delves into No Wave cinema, a vibrant underground scene where figures like Jim Jarmusch, Nick Zedd, and Steve Buscemi first cut their teeth. Illustrated with concert photos, record covers, and other ephemera of the times, and filled with quotes from those who were there, No Wave is the definitive guide to a genre whose sounds and ideas still vibrate through alternative culture today." - Black Dog. |

Artist: NO.9 Title: Mushi-No-Ne Format: CD Label: Locust Country: USA Price: $14.50 |
| "No.9 is Joe Takayuki, an unsung electropop mastermind from Tokyos invigorating Onkyo scene. No.9s sound is focused but theres no doubt that he has a knack for combining all 31 musical flavors and then some. Right from the opening track, Gate, with its chase scene thematics and stuttering rhythms, its hard not to get pulled into a Rollercoaster thats a wily, playful joyride rife with the wistful mod 60s pop hooks (Where come from?, Alternate), a tv spy jazz vibe (survive), an occasionally somber feel propped up by chill natural field recordings of insects (bug beats, Eco Ego), minimal techno (Insatiable World) and a perfect blend of flamenco style acoustic guitar playing and electronics (For Sister)." - Locust |

Artist: NOAHLEWIS MAHLON TAITS Title: Gift from Noahlewis Mahlon Taits Format: LP Label: EM Country: Japan Price: $23.00 |
| "Gift from Noahlewis Mahlon Taits, the third release from the band on EM Records and first since 2001, is a vinyl-only example of the bands unique place in the current Japanese music scene; a hard-to-classify blend of original compositions (swinging garage-sax swagger, serpentine accordion/musical saw funk, pensive sky musings) and well-chosen covers, acclaimed (Rogers and Hart, Joe Meek) and obscure (lounge wizard Bobby Hammack and 50s pianist/composer Bob Brandt). Recorded in 2011 in Tokyo, this album captures the special Noahlewis Mahlon Taits frontline blend of sax, accordion, and musical saw, joyfully urged on by the rhythm section. This band, so distinct from the mass of typical Tokyo sounds, is intent on pursuing its own musical vision, joyously melodic and defiantly timeless. The eight songs on this LP are sure to bring a smile to your face, a tap to your toe, and perhaps, a tear to your eye." - EM. |

Artist: NOCTURNAL EMISSIONS Title: Lest We Forget: Work In Progress 1979-1988 Format: 4LP/7" Boxset Label: Vinyl-On-Demand Country: Germany Price: $120.00 |
| "Lest We Forget is a collection compiled from the earliest recordings by Nocturnal Emissions, a group founded by Nigel Ayers, his brother Daniel Ayers and Caroline K in 1980. It is comprised of material previously only available on cassettes as well as tracks recorded under their earlier name, The Pump. The Nocturnal Emissions were active in what has been known as cassette culture and explored the medium of underground cassette exchange in parallel with their better known vinyl releases and live performances. They used the available technology of the day in a spirit which seems to have anticipated modern social networking through the Internet. This series of documents offers a rare glimpse at audio sketchbooks; raw, unfinished works-in-progress and live performances by the group. It covers a wide range of musical style by a group who were committed to radical experimentation in both form and content. The box set also contains some previously unreleased tracks from the early 80s which sound surprisingly contemporary and fresh. The group has undergone several mutations since these early recordings and continued into 21st century as a solo project by Nigel Ayers. Caroline K left the group in 1984 and produced one solo album before adopting a more private life. She remained a good friend and lived in England, Sri Lanka, and finally in Italy. She married Danny Ayers in 2001. While the edit of this collection was being assembled, she took ill with leukemia and died during hospital treatment a few days later. Carolines distinctively moody electronics, vocals and bass guitar feature strongly on these albums. We offer this box set as a tribute to her life and work." Includes Dyskinesia, The Fight Goes On/Duty Experiment, Deathday/Outtakes, Whisky/Recordings By The Pump, plus booklet." - Vinyl-On-Demand |

Artist: NODZZZ Title: Innings Format: LP Label: Woodsist Country: USA Price: $14.00 |
| "Innings is the second full-length from garage-pop trio Nodzzz and their first for New York imprint Woodsist. Its simple title is a nod to their origin: songwriting core Anthony Atlas and Sean Paul Presley met playing baseball in Olympia, Washington, and started Nodzzz upon relocating to San Francisco. "The album offers fourteen discretely memorable songs in the bands growing idiom—neurotic power-pop antics and jangly, shambolic post-punk—and follows a string of acclaimed records that began with their debut single in 2007, I Dont Wanna (Smoke Marijuana), which jumpstarted San Francisco cult-DIY label Make a Mess Records (subsequent home of similar debut records by Grass Widow, Brilliant Colors, White Fence and more), and was followed by a beloved, albeit short, seventeen-minute self-titled LP and the True to Life single, both on NYCs Whats Your Rupture? label." -Woodsist |

Artist: NODZZZ Title: s/t Format: LP Label: Whats Your Rupture? Country: USA Price: $12.00 |
| "Nodzzz is fun. Fun in the way that the second incarnation of the Modern Lovers and the first Weezer album are fun. Nick Lowe, Billy Childish, Feelies ⿿ you name it. The best moments on the album approach that classic garage-pop abandon, only shot through with a present tense ragged aesthetic. Nodzzz isnt a throwback, but a modern celebration. Its stunning that there arent more bands like Nodzzz and Eddy Current in this sweet spot between numbed revivalism and the noise garage. Other Whats Your Rupture? bands also have some success in this area, but Nodzzz wisely substitute real pop smarts for antic energy." -Dusted.com |

Artist: NOH MERCY Title: Noh Mercy Format: LP Label: Superior Viaduct Country: USA Price: $16.00 |
|
"We are extremely honored to announce NOH MERCYs debut release -- a mere 33 years after it was recorded. You may know these San Francisco legends from Fast Products Earcom #3 compilation. Well, lost recordings have been uncovered at last and offered to the world. Truly incredible.
Formed in San Francisco in 1977, NOH MERCY was comprised of only two women: Esmerelda and Tony Hotel. The bands motto was "No Boys On Guitars" as a reaction against male-dominated rock n roll. They didnt need boys or guitars. They harnessed the angularity of DEVO, the punk/poet attitude of PATTI SMITH, and the art spectacle of ROXY MUSIC, all ground down to a minimalist core of voice and drums. Their only two previously released songs -- "No Caucasian Guilt" and "Revolutionary Spy" -- have long been considered essential recordings within Post-Punk/No Wave collector circles and by fans of other late 70s "girl" groups, such as X-RAY SPEX, THE SLITS, and THE RAINCOATS.
This album contains almost entirely unreleased material, unheard for over thirty years. Recorded by Fluxus artist and electronics genius Tommy Tadlock (TUXEDOMOON) during their peak in 1979. As prescient as bands come, NOH MERCY preceded the defiant queer rebellion of Riot Grrrl and the frenetic art minimalism of the early 21st century by decades.
LP on clear vinyl with 8-page insert." - Superior Viaduct. Very highly recommended! |

Artist: NOISE NOMADS Title: Noise Nomads Format: LP Label: Ultra Eczema Country: Belgium Price: $29.00 |
| "The first time Ive met Jeff Hartford aka Moose Jaw aka Noise Nomads was around 4 years ago in Providence, a tense looking bear putting a mic in front of a amp, leaving the audience alone with a whale of feedback, pretty pretty pretty confused!! He walks out after kranking open the amp, a minute later a giant REAL Christmas tree walks thru the audience trying to find the way back to the amp, kicking people over, I guess this show was right after Christmas time and Jeff fount it somewhere or he stared at a young kid that was about to decorate it.. I was very impressed by his show, both sound and performance wise, there was a seriously intense vibe there, felt like he could snap at any given moment and squeeze you to death with a Christmas tree.. Noise Nomads live sets are always strange, confusing and amazing, an amp iiiiiiiiiiiiiii-ing while the man goes running around the block, a mountain of amps that start talking after he picked a fight with them, a sludgier drummer does not exist. It was definitely not the last time the man amazed me, his duo set with PAUL FLAHERTY (which is released on American tapes), the loner car rides I shared with him to his area in the valleys of Northampton, his amazing monthly zines and tapes, his drumming with Grey Skull, his drawings etc.. Its a total psycho package; everything is there; visuals, sounds and a great dude! The first side of this record was recorded a bunch of years ago and is just voice and Tascam! A amazing swollen beast of sound poetry, gargling waanzin, and muffled barking! The b side is the same dude a few years later on his knees in my living room screaming thru a bass drum and a contact mic attached to a bunch of pedals, harsher than a prison full of parrots to be released! There should be more paintings like Kim Gordons Noise Nomads!!! Limited to 300 copies." - Ultra Eczema. |

The truth lies somewhere within the mess of cables and the stack of amps; they must be destroyed to uncover it.

Technically called Paul Flaherty and Jeff Hartford but, we all know the two stars involved so might as well roll with the stage, names. Live in Florence, MA on 8-01-08, just f***ucking nutz.

Goes all sorts of zones, from wispy oil electronics sailing on soft reeded secret-breaths, then into, club ham/fisted drum abuse with that screech we all love. Super weird, with, great electronics by BONESCRAPER Hartford... Like SONATA FOR TWO MOODS= ALL, WHACKED. Warning: does NOT sounds like Pauls ORANGE unit.....AT ALL!!!! I had a, bunch of tests yearly...Wiring midterm and a tuff J Operator and Complex Phasors, one right after it, and stoopid me left my regular glasses in the Tovinators, purse...so had to bust the test with me Shades/Stunners in full effect and my, wiring intrusctor was like "you wanna do this test backstage?"

Though typically of fluctuating dimensions, these recordings from 1992-3 feature only the founding pair, just before the group broadened into the transmedia conglomerate that stands as their legacy. Each vignette unravels gradually into delicate drifts of environmental blur and rustles and screeches, rarely tethered to rhythm for a feel more akin to drifting in and out of consciousness. Knowing that they only got better, its tough to shake how incredibly good they are here." - Twice Zonked. Warehouse find of this 1995 release. |

Side B begins rather annoyingly with someone playing Jefferson Airplanes "Somebody To Love" underneath the electronics for no compelling reason before settling into a very agreeable bit of extended synthetic claustrophobia." -Mutant Sounds. "Exact reissue of the very rare original release from 1985. In handmade/sandpaper cover with stamped insert" - PCP.

Artist: NORD Title: L.S.D. Format: LP Label: PCP Country: Germany Price: $20.00 |
| Reissue of the second NORD release from 1984, his first being the 1981 self titled LP on Pinakotecha, an early release for the label after the legendary 愛欲人民十時劇場 compilation LP and KEIJI HAINOs 1st LP. Highly recommended! ".. L.S.D. features rough hewn sheets of ominous yet trippy pulsating textural electronics with an obvious debt to the stark teutonic soundworlds of Kluster and (especially) Seesselberg. Any glimmers of transcendence are immediately offset by a deadzone ambience that reeks of Maurizio Bianchi. Hiroshi Oikawas solo explorations of the galactic void seem considerably more enticing to these set of ears than the more formalized quotidian post-industrial con- structs he was fabricating under the Nord moniker with Satoshi Katayama on their Pinakotheca label debut LP from three years earlier. If this is cos-mic, than its the cosmos as viewed from the vantage point of a burned out cinder drifting into entropy. Gripping stuff!" - Mutant Sounds. |

Artist: NORMA LOY Title: Message From The Dead Format: Double LP/DVD Label: Vinyl-On-Demand Country: Germany Price: $47.00 |

"Superb compilation of French cold-wave/goth legend Norma Loy starting with their very first recorded track from 81 to unreleased demos/rehearsals/live to unreleased treasures. In 1981, Usher and Chelsea formed Norma Loy. The band launched its first EP, the first one of its cold-wave-kind in France. Norma Loy searched for their identity and multiplied there experiences on the side, leading to the creation in 1984 of their own label, CPM, which produced a second EP distributed by New Rose: Psychic Altercation whose psychoanalytic rock gave the setting for later productions. CPM developed its own philosophy and centralized the different activities of the group (musical and non musical ones: (photo)graphic ones, literature, video making, dance etc...) and controls the entire artistic production (recordings, LP covers, song books...). A particular emphasis was drawn on the concerts mixing music and slide projections. Over the past 25 years, many excellent records have been released such as Rewind/T.Vision (86), Sacrifice (88) and the last part of the trilogy called Rebearth."

Artist: NORMALS Title: Vacation To Nowhere Format: LP Label: Last Laugh Country: USA Price: $18.00 |
| "New Orleans punk premiers The Normals have long been considered staples of the KBD stew, with their first and last single Almost Ready b/w Hardcore being one of the finest examples of both melodic and manic late 1970s bashing. As a compliment to their reissue of that timeless 7", the freaks at Last Laugh Records have dug up what may qualify as one of the primo lost albums of the original American punk rock cream-dream, Vacation To Nowhere. And while this isnt the first time that enlightened members of the public have been given a chance to hear some of the 12 throttling tracks contained on this album (Airline 61 released the retrospective CD Your Punk Heritage in the late 1990s), this is the first time that these recordings have been released as a complete album. Each song on Vacation... stands as a perfect example of 70s power pop craft coarsely blended with spasmodic intensity late 70s punk polenta. Even with the oddly out of place sentimentality expressed on Memories, the band never veers off course. Songs like Sometimes The Truth, What Do You Think Of The U.S.A.?, and the titular Vacation To Nowhere, are (at this point) theoretical classics I imagine Teengenerate would have covered at least half of this album, had they heard it in 1993. These songs are so good in fact, that they seem familiar and inviting, like something that one returns to rather than discovers for the first time." - Victim Of Time. |

Unfolding over 31 minutes, the piece features over 150 performers on 200+ instruments including the Persian santur, various ARP/Buchla/ Moog analog synthesizers, gamelans (handmade by Lou Harrison), classical strings, timpani, harpsichord, and percussion. Myriad is performed by a veritable "world orchestra."

Artist: NORTH SEA Title: Bloodlines Format: LP Label: Type Country: UK Price: $19.00 |
| "Brad Rose is an artist who is notoriously hard to pigeonhole. He might spend his days running the esteemed Digitalis imprint (sidelining the wonderful Foxy Digitalis webzine) but his nights are wiled away chiseling at the petrified corpse of experimental music. Donating sounds to Ajilvsga, Altar Eagle, Sea Zombies and Ossining (among many, many others), he has somehow found time to fashion a new solo work for Type, and it could hardly be further removed from his last outing. Bloodlines is an album rooted in synthesis -- the kind of busted power electronics that emerged in the early 80s with Ramleh, Throbbing Gristle and Whitehouse. This is not, however, simply a noise album -- Brad has anchored his sound in this explorative mode, but uses his expertise to take it far beyond murk, grit and fractured teeth. With the help of Zelienople drummer Mike Weis (who accompanies the entire record on percussion) the record is a gloriously spacious excursion, with the fizzing Radiophonic blips, drones and tones set against gongs, scrapes and clanks. The sounds are dark and often punishing -- torturous and occasionally frightening, but Brad somehow manages to offset it with an occasional flourish of beauty or calm. The record is cut into two distinct acts (split lovingly for vinyl listening) and each "song" blends into the next, giving a true album experience. Bloodlines is not a simple collection of pieces, but a distinct narrative from beginning to end. As it tumbles from 50s sci-fi synth tones into haunting off-world terror, there is a sense of purpose and most of all, place. Brad has created a record that might not be an easy listening experience, but is one which grows on every successive play. It is truly deep and intensely troubling music." - Type. |

Artist: NORTH SEA Title: Grandeur & Weakness Format: LP Label: Rubber City Noise Country: USA Price: $19.00 |
| "The final album from Brad Roses The North Sea, a project that has traversed a wide range of phenomenal sound territories, and it is an sublimely uncanny farewell from one of experimental musics most ambitious names. Rose(best known as the polymath mastermind behind Digitalis and scores of projects) oversees an assemblage of sound sources evoking the history of electric music. From synthesizer soundscapes that seek to reconcile the limits of timbre to concrete sampling and collage, G&W plays a crash course in sonic evocation. Clearly in control of The North Sea sound, Rose notes that he has never spent more time on any solo project than on this record, and this is apparent throughout the scale of sound and emotion of G&W. Theres a sense of the uncanny, a mysterious unsettling, throughout the album and this is directly attributable toG&Ws aesthetic basis in Franz Fanons The Wretched of the Earth, African percussion, and progressive drone." - Rubber City Noise. |

Artist: NORTH SEA, THE Title: Tacazze Sunbirds Format: LP Label: Crazy Iris Country: USA Price: $20.00 |
| "An epic new missive from the ever-prolific Brad Rose under his increasingly less prolific North Sea moniker, Tacazze Sunbird comes to us via the somewhat mysterious Crazy Iris label (who are responsible for issuing a superlative KPLR record a couple years ago), and is unique in his repertoire as its comprised of two side-length pieces and focuses on the harsher end of the sound spectrum. Opener Suicide Spin is as bleak as the title implies, with seething electronic drones set against negative space and otherworldly oscillations. Over Under is even more punishing and stark, with a caustic cycling tone beginning the side slowly evolving into a miasma of crumbling noise. This is the bleakest and most noise-oriented material Ive heard from Brad to date, and its also some of his strongest. Brad recently told me that he was finally putting the North Sea to bed, and if this is that projects swan song, its one hell of an exit." - Alex Cobb, Experimedia.

Artist: NORTHERN HAZE Title: Sinnaktuq Format: LP Label: Supreme Echo Country: Canada Price: $25.00 |
 "Hailing from the 69th parallel in the Arctic is a story unlike any other. Born on the land to Nomadic parents and later settled in the hamlet community of Igloolik, these childhood friends grew up learning to play on toy instruments until becoming accomplished musicians and forming a group in 1977. Their talent won success in the early 80s with contests, press coverage, and tours of isolated Northern communities until in 85 when CBC Radio invited them to travel 3000 km south to record an album. The result became the first Canadian Inuit Rock/Metal album ever made and first Indigenous language rock album in North America. Pressed in a tiny quantity of 500 copies for promotional use only, the LP quickly disappeared into the vortex of rare Canadiana. Over the 1990’s and into the millennium, Northern Haze endured great hardship yet 35+ years on they still prevail. In 2010, a new recording and a documentary film on the history of the group was produced on location in the Arctic. Complete with traditional “ayaya” parts and sung entirely in Inuktitut, the end result is a heavy melodic rock/metal album played by veterans of the genre with a distinctly original character unlike anything heard before. For these men who live two lives, the old ways of the past meet with those of the present; “Sinnaktuq” (their “dreams”) are truly embodied within the realization of this amazing deluxe collection of original material.
11 songs total: seven songs recorded 1985, one song recorded 2002, and three songs recorded 2010, ranging from tight and heavy NWOBHM to heavy melodic doom-rock! Exclusive CBC license, 100% authorized, remastered, original cover art painstakingly restored, 12 page booklet packed with vintage photographs + art + detailed history. The true Rock Shamans of the North! "Northern Haze were a rock and roll band with all band members born and raised in Igloolik, Nunavit. The band members were: Kolitalik Inukshuk on lead guitar; James Unalaq on electric rhythm guitar; Elijah Kunnuk on bass; John Inooya on drume; Ed Bimm on synthesizer; and Randall Prescott on harmonica. Randall Prescott was Musical Direction; Marc Lajoie Engineer; produced by Les McLaughlin. This music artifact is of cultural and historical significance. The group were the first Inuit group to record a rock and roll album." - Supreme Echo. 
"The album was recorded at Marc Productions in Ottawa in March, 1985. The great cover artwork was by NORTHERN HAZE. The photography was by John Ough.
The musicianship is tight; these young lads could really tear it up. Theres great guitar riffs, fuzz guitar, and a garage feel. The blend of inuit culture and rock is entirely distinct - this is a completely unique recording that could never be duplicated. Due to its quality and rarity, this album remains on the wishlists of many a collector worldwide." -Museum of Canadian Music."Over 4000 years ago, when the first Inuit moved from place to place in the Arctic Regions, the drums and the haunting chants of the voice were the sole means of entertainment. These songs were also used to pass information from the old to the new generation. Ayi Ayi songs told stories of the past, and contained hope for the future. The drum and the voice! Today, music is an important part of the Inuit culture. "NORTHERN HAZE", a group of young men, all born and raised in Igloolik, carry on this way. But they have added the rhythms of modern rock music to the drums and voice of the past. Lead singer and guitarist Kolitalik Inukshuk with bass player and backup vocalist Elijah Kunnuk, drummer John Inooya and guitarist James Unalaq blend the music of today with the thoughts of yesterday and the hopes for the future in this first album to feature Inuktitut Rock and Roll. The songs speak of the way of life of the older generation as in Inusivut, and of present day relationships as in Anuvunga. The group "NORTHERN HAZE" hopes this recording will please the older generation as well as show young Inuit that modern sounds are an important part of the future of Inuit music." -Robert Williston/liner notes.

Recorded live in the basement back in 1986, Mee-Mee guitarist Bruce Cole teams up with Mee-Mee drummer Jon Ashlines little brother Lance to rock-slop it through seventeen loose n crazy little jams. The results range from inspired instrumental free-rock diddle to spontaneous songs with very silly ad-lib lyrics. A few of my personal faves: "Gotta Fix a Radio," "E-String," "Rock-a-Bye Baby," the Cramps "Can Your Pussy Do the Dog," "Dawn of Eno Parts 1, 2, 23," "From the Grave of Kruschev," and "Little Old Lady Tie Your Shoe" (sung by Lance, as are three others).

"first ever reissue of this totally brilliant post-satwa 1973 brazilian private press featuring the core trio lula côrtes, marconi notaro & zé ramalho. recorded just months after lula & lailson had released satwa, lula was back in the same recife studio with poet and friend marconi notaro to lay down another equally magical album. zé ramalho, who would go on to record the paéberu 2lp with lula two years later, makes his recording debut here as well... somehow amidst the harsh government restrictions of 70s brazil, lula côrtes and his group of artist friends had managed to bypass the authorities and create a hugely creative micro-world of their own, recording, producing, and releasing this album with complete independence. no small feat in and of itself, no doubt, but the music is what makes this slab a true lost masterpiece... the whole album gushes forth with a sun baked spirit of the highest level, mixing tropicalia tinged folk-beat groovers, satwa style bliss trance ragas, paébiru favored lysergic jungle psych, and even a raging fuzz/wah soaked garage psych rocker. extremely mind melting from start to finish, with huge washes of rippling tape delay, electric & acoustic guitars, 12 string, tranced folk percussion, passionate yet mellow vocals, liquid electric bass, acid effects everywhere, and of course lulas mercurial & heart melting tricórdio (an instrument he made himself, something like a sitar/dulcimer hybrid). beautiful, melancholy and joyous all at the same moment, this is an album that after 33 years still sounds completely fresh & unique... sadly marconi passed away in 2000 having lived a life of obscurity even in his own town, yet leaving behind 7 published books of poetry and this stunning, lone album. this reissue has been authorized by maconis daughter and lula córtes to insure they receive the credit and funds they deserve, even if it comes 3 decades late... fully reproduced original art, featuring beautiful drawings by lula & layout by katia. heavy weight, old style, laminated gatefold covers. pressed on 180gm virgin vinyl. original label art. plus a huge full color 4 page insert featuring fully translated original notes, rare photos and book covers, marconis last poem written the day before his death, and extensive new notes & biography by lula córtes. vinyl version limited to 1000 copies." - Time-Lag. |

"The Notekillers were a Philadelphia based band between the years of 1977 1981. They were a nowave guitar/drums, instrumental band that had one amazing self released 7" in 1978, "The Zipper" b/w "Clock Wise". They played in NYC a couple of times, most memorably opening for Glen Branca, which is how they came to the attention of Ecstatic Peace. A few years back, Sonic Youths / Ecstatic Peaces Thurston Moore was asked to make a fantasy mix tape for Mojo magazine. He included the song "The Zipper", saying, "It was one of those records that resonated fully with all of us at the time - a genuine hybrid of radical approach (ayler/pistols!)" This rock based group from the age of punk rock and disco featured talented musicians that had two main goals. The first was to experiment; to push their combined abilities to uncommon results. The second was that their efforts should be able to follow any record on their turntable, whether it be reggae, rock, acoustic or punk and the influences would be evident while maintaining their own driving rock sound. This new release from Ecstatic Peace includes the song that started it all, "The Zipper" and its B-Side, "Clock Wise", the never released single, "Run Dont Stop" b/w "Juggernauts" and eleven tracks taken from 2-track reels, dusty cassettes and an actual 8-track cartridge." - Ecstatic Peace.

Artist: NOTHING Title: Scream N Cry b/w Uniformz Format: 7" Label: Sing Sing Country: USA Price: $6.50 |
| "Trixz Sly (Torquill Smith 4/23/48 - 11/01/2005), met Johnny Thunders and Jerry Nolan from the New York Dolls while they were in London in the mid-70s. He was then introduced to the Sex Pistols by the manager of the Dolls/Pistols, Malcolm McLaren, in 1977 and moved to NY in 1978. The Nothing formed in NYC in 1978 and the lineup for their lone 45 consisted of Trixz Sly (v), Bobby B. Wild (gtr) Phil Schoenfelt (b) and Mick Crash (d). By 1980, several members had left to join other bands and The Nothing broke up. Probably due to Trixzs heavy drug use which would be the major reason why he never "made it" as a popular punk musician. Trixz later formed another band, the Cyanide Sweeties which would also dismantle due to drug use. They played the rock/punk clubs in NYC including CBGBs, and built a strong fan base playing at Maxs Kansas City. He wrote the lyrics for all of his songs and would continue to play his songs with other musicians, including The Misfits, The New York Dolls, The Sex Pistols, Billy Idol, Lou Reed and Keith Richards. Trix Sly recorded a solo album "Bossa Nova Baby" in 1980 and would continue working with experimental music and film until his death in 2005. He partnered up with Adam West (Batman) to film a documentary on Woodstock 94, but the project was never finished. At the end of his life he was an activist for the homeless in Miami and presented the "Homeless Bill of Rights" to the city of Miami Beach. He was found dead in his apartment and the cause of death was declared "natural causes." - Trixz Smith. Originally released in 1979. |

"A single that is not new just appeared on the scene. And although it is 20 odd years old Aint No Fascist/Dingulation Number 1 by The Charlie Nothing Dingulator Band is the sort of thing that you should jump on if it passes by your fingers. Mr Nothing may be recalled by some for his great album, The Psychedelic Saxophone Of Charlie Nothing on the Takoma label or even the more obscure self released records he cut. This single was the last of those, and it is a monster. The A side vocal slides all around the place with flutes, crazy guitar, staggering percussion and voices, like some mutant offshoot of Starship Beer crossed with David Peel And The Lower East Side. Very groovy stuff. And, lest you start to get strange ideas, the Dingulation concept has to do with the musical instruments that Mr Nothing fashioned from junk automobiles. No more, no less." - Byron Coley, WIRE. Original copies of this 1980 release. Only 200 copies pressed (despite what it says on the jacket). Very highly recommended!

And over the last couple years this ⿿fan club has asked me ⿿Whens the full length? over and over again. Well, now they can shut the hell up because the Nothing Peoples first album is here! And let me tell you this, while the Nothing Peeps have plenty of songs that yell out ⿿put me on a 45, they have just as many that demand to be heard in long form. Want an example, check out ⿿Sickness (http://www.myspace.com/ssrecords). It is the kind of song you want to hear on twelve inches, and there are 8, 9, 10 hell I lost count, but there are a bunch more.

We are thinking that Late Night, their second full length, is gonna make even more people happy. From the sci-fi, psych, proto punk bombast of the first, the Nothing People shift gears into a moodier, darker, and creepier existence. Here you get the influence of Dream Syndicates Karl Precoda and the later f-ed up work of Scott Walker. The record does sound like a late night, on a deserted highway, maybe somewhere around the farm town of Orland, CA, where these three -- nope four (they added a former Monoshock keyboardist!) -- are from. And that cover art? It is by Ilth. The Nothing People have released singles on S.S. and HozAc, as well as the aforementioned Anonymous, which is now in its second pressing." -S-S |

Artist: NOTHING PEOPLE Title: Smells Like Metal Format: LP Label: Captcha Country: USA Price: $15.00 |
| "NOTHING PEOPLE keep getting stronger and their 4th LP, Smells like Metal, is proof of that. This record beautifully pulls together the sound of the bands three prior efforts, fusing dark synth, psych and proto punk with elements of an eastern vibe. It sounds like raw material that Nam June Paik would run through a mix of broken CRT equipment and fried transformers. The album breaks repeatedly from pop boppers into dystopic soundscapes replete with bleak auto-erotic frequencies reminiscent of J.G. Ballards Crash. It sounds like a high-speed joy ride rolling up to a 3-car pile-up at 80 miles an hour. It feels like the Nothing People are on that ride, understanding that our civilization is in decline, headed east into the hills wanting to escape it all, the buzz and the Hollywood madness. LP is housed in a deluxe gatefold sleeve containing multiple inserts and downloads." -Captcha. |

| "Lots of bands, lots of records and usually by record two most bands crap out. Not the Nothing People. Since their first EP was released on S.S some four years ago, every subsequent Nothing People/S.S. release has gotten better and better. Soft Crash is no exception. And like the jump between their first album (Anonymous) and their second (Late Night), Soft Crash both expands and secures the Nothing Peoples sound. A proto-punk pulse mixes with a dark synth throb for something that sounds both of yesterday and tomorrow or in the words of Z Guns Ryan Wells, These guys are science fiction! Sci fi? As in Chrome, Von Lmo, and Simply Saucer? Natch. And the man is right. However, unlike the ton of bands who get rifled in with classic underground names and cannot deliver, the Nothing People do their comrades justice. 2009s Late Night LP made a ton of year end Best Of lists. The year before Anonymous hit a bunch of Best Ofs. Soft Crash to your Best of 2010 list. Soft Crash is a great record. Includes download code." - SS. |

Artist: NOTHING, CHARLIE Title: Charlie Nothing & Dingulator Format: Cass Label: Destijl Country: USA Price: $6.00 |
|
"Charlie Nothing & Dingulator was one of the seemingly myriad 80s Charlie Nothing cassettes and its inclusion was, in part, intended within a 2CD anthology that wed planned but the amount of material is too great and the moments therein are too grand to even dream of an edit. Although this is fairly late in Mr Nothings oeuvre, we cant think of a more fully realized statement regarding the scope of his playing recycled automotive steel guitars and the performing of his Big Dingulator Song Sweet (or Suite, as it were, a concept of his that implied all songs were but one song) than a reissue of this 1985 manifesto-like piece. What you are about to hear is... Dingulation." -Destijl

Artist: NOTHING, CHARLIE Title: Outside/Inside Format: LP Label: Destijl Country: USA Price: $17.00 |
| "Charlie Nothing was the fractured-psyche pseudonym of author, father, horsekeeper, organic farmer, beekeeper, philosopher, clown and inventor of the Dingulator (guitar sculptures made from American car metal), Charles Martin Simon. Charlies only visible offering to the record buying public was really anything but. Due to its rarity, The Psychedelic Saxophone of Charlie Nothing, issued by Takoma Records in 1967, has been a source of consternation for in-the-know types for years. Outside / Inside, the second and only other Charlie Nothing LP, originally issued by Everitt Enterprises in 1969, thematically follows with two sidelong flute-based instrumentals. Nowhere on wax will you find more palpable preserved air of a real-time dropout scene than with these sides of Nothing. It is a wonder that these records circulated at all outside the vacuum in which they were created. Nothingness, a California existentiality looping back on itself, preserved and disseminated as evidence. There are indeed very few records like these. Fully Authorized / Fully Legit." - Destijl. Very highly recommended! |

Artist: NOTHING, CHARLIE Title: The Psychedelic Saxophone Of Charlie Nothing Format: LP Label: No Label Country: Price: $19.00 |
| "Grey-area exact LP repro edition, originally released on Faheys Takoma label in 1967. Charlie Nothing was the fractured-psyche pseudonym of author, organic farmer, beekeeper and philosopher/clown Charles Martin Simon, inventor of the dingulator (guitar sculptures made out the metal from American cars). The Psychedelic Saxophone Of Charlie Nothing made a minor splash in the European free jazz melting pot upon its initial release, but the albums non-dingulating psych sax improvisation, accompanied by gong, conga drum and banjo (supposedly borrowed from Tiny Tim), is highly sought-after by the adventurous and heavily medicated. Limited to 500 copies." Very highly recommended! |

Artist: NOTHING, CHARLIE aka CHARLES MARTIN SIMON Title: Life and Crimes of Charlie Nothing Format: Book Label: Nothing, Charlie Country: USA Price: $23.00 |
|
"Charlie Nothing had many bands that dingulated during the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Dingulations ranged from very well received (After one performance in L.A., Charlie Nothing was offered a ton of money to take a tour to Viet Nam with Bob Hope to entertain the troops. He declined, calculating that he was more likely to get shot than get the money.) to being spat upon by human beings who could not tolerate the disrespect that Dingulation represented to the Hamster Hierarchy of Respectable Entertainment.
Charlie Nothing has had many art shows in very established galleries which are no longer in existence. One of the first canvases he ever produced was purchased by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art circa 1963, after being featured in a show called New York Artists. He has performed in many places and times. Written many songs which were anthologized in the "Big Dingulator Song Book," which is unavailable. He composed and produced records and tapes as far back as the late 60s. One of his LPs "In Eternity With Brother Fred" was produced and officially released by the prestigious Tacoma Records and achieved an infinitesimal degree of infamy in Europe under the category of New Jazz, which, of course, it was totally not.
Charlie Nothing quit performing, having finally evolved past the entertaining-monkey-jumping-up-and-down stage." -

Artist: NOVA SCOTIA/EYE Title: Split Format: LP Label: Tipped Bowler Country: USA Price: $16.00 |
| "Tipped Bowler returns to the fertile soil of New Zealand to cull two choice improvisations. On the A-side, Wellingtons Nova Scotia delivers A Million Corpses of Dead Bees, an eighteen minute free-rock burner. Growing from violin sine-squeak and distant shortwave, the piece gains momentum with its patient drumming and resolves into a saxophone swarm shot through with synthetic scrabble. On the reverse, Dunedins Eye comes off colder and more aggressive. High Road throttles the listener with Schnitzler-ian electronics, militant percussion, and guitar strangulation before collapsing into coda of cymbal taps and glassy string-work. Rigorous yet unbound, these pieces shine a light on a musical community few of us can witness firsthand. Issued in an edition of 250 150-gram black LPs in elegant black-and-white matte sleeves screened with consummate skill by Alan Sherry of Siwa." -Tipped Bowler |

Artist: NOVA SCOTIAN ARMS Title: Cult Spectrum Format: LP Label: Digitalis Country: USA Price: $19.00 |
| "Grant Evans, who is also of Quiet Evenings alongside his wife Rachel (aka Motion Sickness Of Time Travel) and co-curator of the Hooker Vision label, is the brains behind Nova Scotian Arms. Throughout numerous releases, he has shown a consistent ability to keep listeners guessing as he explores endless sonic territories. With Cult Spectrum, Evans is drowning himself in a hazy aural sea. Like much of his work, there is a very distinct mood on Cult Spectrum. This is funereal music that is stretched to the breaking point -- distant echoes are buried underground in a delicate mix of sounds that are as cosmic as they are organic. This duality is at play straight-off with the masterful opener, "Gathering/Composition." Soaring in crystal skies on beds of hiss, each strained note from Evans Rhodes piano emerges from the murk like an anchor keeping the song and the mood forlorn. Tape-loops and radio interference deliciously muddy the waters on the 16+ minute "Emulsion," combining all those and more into a cacophonous stew. Acoustic guitars circle around in a swirling synthetic drain -- each wave emerging in stages as Evans shows considerable compositional skill in the way the piece is put together. With "Overcast (1st Delay)" comes a melancholic, skyward glance, taking shape through tonal dichotomies. This is the sound of dissonance sculpted and shaped into something far greater than the sum of its parts, leaving its mark long after the final, ghostly seconds of "Hearse Overdub (Decomposition)" fade away. Evans is digging a tunnel, heading straight for the sun. Mastered by Lawrence English and cut to vinyl at Dubplates and Mastering, Berlin. Limited to 500 copies only." - Digitalis. |

Artist: NOVELLER Title: Desert Fires Format: LP Label: Weird Forest Country: USA Price: $17.00 |
| "The solo project of Brooklyn-based guitarist and filmmaker Sarah Lipstate (Rhys Chathams Guitar Army, Glenn Brancas 100 guitar ensemble, Parts & Labor, Carla Bozulich / Evangelista, Cold Cave), follows up her Red Rainbows CD (No Fun 2009) with this compositional evolutionary step from layered, loop-based drones to more expansive formal arrangements of swells, throbs, tones and shimmer. Almost Alright explores territory charted by Fripp & Eno or synth-heavy contemporaries Emeralds. Kites Calm Desert Fires is a sandstorm of rich, percussive guitar, warm humming bass and swirling rhapsodic chimes. Toothnest (for Chris Habib) arrives at an idyllic sonic plateau of windswept fuzz and tremolo, then charges blindly with a soaring guitar solo evocative of bagpipes triumphantly marking a return from battle. Art by Sarah Lipstate. Originally released on CD by Saffron Recordings. Limited edition vinyl comes with 11"x11" insert." -Weird Forest |

Artist: NOVELLER Title: Glacial Glow Format: LP Label: Weird Forest Country: USA Price: $19.00 |
| "Sarah Lipstate is Noveller and Glacial Glow is her most assured, accomplished statement to date. Lipstate largely sheds the distortion and feedback present in much of her earlier work. Instead, she relies on instantly memorable melodies, a wider sonic palette, and excellent pacing to deliver arguably her best album. Noveller announces her intentions from the opening track, appropriately titled Entering, as the syncopated rhythm of the melody represents a new twist from her previous guitar work. This is only the hors doeuvre for the stunning Glacial Wave, which drifts along serenely until Lipstate rains down gorgeous arpeggios like icy shards from the heavens. Other pieces feature sparse arrangements anchored by pulsing throbs which evoke a subtle, creeping anxiety more menacing than the feel-good retro-horror soundtracks making the rounds these days. Throughout Glacial Glow, Lipstate exercises restraint and a fleeting melancholy feeling pervades the album. It says something about an albums quality when the closing track, Ends, is chosen as the lead-off video. Ocean sounds combine with the lovely chord progression and guitar lines to create an uplifting, yet slightly wistful feeling and a perfect bookend to the record. "LP version on clear vinyl with full-color, double-sided insert." -Weird Forest |

Paint on the Shadows is her overdue debut LP full of beautiful floating guitar lines, breathtaking soundscapes and precise sculptures of spiraling sound created by Sarah using double-neck guitar, a tape player, and various electronic manipulations. Sitting comfortably between some of the most well done avant-garde music and the new generation of new sound masters we have been bringing you lately.

Artist: NOVELLER/AIDAN BAKER Title: Colorful Disturbances Format: LP Label: Divorce Country: Canada Price: $19.00 |
| "Guitars warped so hard they dissolve into pure consciousness! Seriously, this record had to happen because these two are the NOW of transcendental guitar weirdness. In families like ours where deformed music of one kind or another pours out of the speakers all day long, Torontos Aidan Baker is a household name. He is no doubt one of the most imaginative experimental musicians of the new generation, quickly creating a universe of limitless sound with his bursting discography. He offers this record an extensive piece which mixes drone, texture, and an ever-bowing foundation -- imagine the sound of falling backwards... forever. The new blood on this split is guitarist Sarah Lipstate from Brooklyn, New York (aka Noveller). Sarahs prepared twin guitar works up a slow hypnotic force, gently pulling way out to the furthest deep end of pulses and patterns. Beautiful repetitions effortlessly skirt over a dark undercurrent.

Artist: NOWIK, WILLIAM Title: Pan symphony in E Minor Format: LP Label: Guerssen Country: Spain Price: $24.00 |
| "One of the newest and most surprising discoveries in the 60s & 70s rock rarities field, this caused big hype among collectors in the last months. Certainly easy to understand, as its an ace album no one had heard of before. Guitarist William Nowik recorded this obscure instrumental record back in 1974 in the NY area. Psychedelic, progressive, very early Floyd sounding at times, Crimson-esque, and a kind of sound that reminds on the British early 70s underground but with an experimental, trippy touch. Fourteen tracks in total, but played and arranged in suites. Seems that only 200 copies were pressed and never distributed, so it has taken 35 years to be discovered for the first time. This wonderful reissue comes with the intended original artwork (it came out in green and black cover instead of the black and white that William wanted), has nice remastered sound and includes an insert with rare unseen photos and extended liner-notes." - Guerssen. |

The two bands entered the "La Mer Rouge Studio" and during two long nights, recorded more than 10 hour of (no-)music!!!!! One part of this mixture happened to be the music on "No Victoria". A new band was born : NSBSP2! In may 2008 a small Canadian tour was organised and in early october 2009 a "live" meeting was organised in Paris (Montreuil / Instants Chavirés) to celebrate the issue of this limited double vinyl." - Bimbo Tower. |

"Nubs frontman BJ Branch crawled across the same beer-soaked stages as hometown pals the Jabbers, logging hundreds of gigs in the New England area during the bands six-year existence. The fuzzbox shredding on "I Dont Need You (Cause I Got Me)" has long stood in fine mix tape company sandwiched between the Mentally Ill and the Maids. Recorded in 1979 at NCS studios in New Hampshire, the Nubs left behind plenty of negative vibes for a young Kevin Allin to soak up while recording his LP tracks shortly thereafter. Transferred straight from the analog masters, and guaranteed to sound just as twisted 33 years later." - Last Laugh. |

I know Ive already bigged up this band before, but I aint even started, motherfuckers. For not only is D. Harvey one of only two whiteys who can hit me with a raga and make me want more (TiMOTHy Revelator is the other), Harveys also a percipient enough motherfucker to have boosted the bands personnel to new heights by adding former Tight Bros fellow guitarist Quitty on bass, thereby bringing the current Richter Scale stature of this ensemble to Overfloweth. And while side one clocks in at twenty-one minutes of early (TNT-period) DC as played by Amon Düül 2, side two sports a re-mix/re-model by Fucking Champs hero Tim Green, thereby stuffing even more sonic overload into the grooves. Once Nudity get their first full album up-and-running, I know all Hell will break loose cause theyze already majorly there with this release. So dont just kick your heels and wait for Nudity to come to you, demand one of these exquisite purple vinyl delights and pronto, Tonto!" - Julian Cope, Headheritage.co.uk |

Artist: NULL & VOID Title: Possibilities (Discoverable Thoughts) Format: LP Label: Bunkerpop Country: USA Price: $16.00 |
|
"Recorded between 1981 and 1982, the 3rd and final LP by Fullerton, CAs brilliant but short-lived NULL AND VOID was never properly released in its time. After being rejected by head-scratching label execs in the U.S. and having met with letters of rejection along the lines of “Theres a lot going on here… Im not sure what it is… I think its too much, etc.”, the record was, sadly, shelved for the next 30 years.
From Mutant Sounds: Like Half Machine Lip Moves On Some Faraway Beach, this final genius stroke from these increasingly warped Californian post punk merchants (following my posts of their Happiness And Contempt and Montage Morte EPs, the latter of which shares a few tracks with this album) ratchets up the stakes significantly; their angle of approach here weaving Chrome-plated and dystopian shaded tangents through a series of emotionally loaded and pop savvy oblique advances that are absolutely breathtaking in their collective impact. This album was shopped around all over back in the day and deemed “too weird” by one and all. Feh! Silly children…they missed the boat on a stone cold classic… This, at the very least, is a product of an outstandingly talented and overlooked “synth wave” band taking their music into new and increasingly warped directions. An avant pop “post punk experimental acid music” masterwork, a truly endless piece of music, and the grand vision of NULL AND VOIDs William Shifflette." -Bunkerpop. |

Also included in this box is a t-shirt with the legendary "NWW list" (a list of 294 bands that accompanied NWW on this album) in luminous ink on a black shirt, and a die-cut enamel badge of the woman from the iconic front cover. The collection will be housed in a beautiful box printed with a matte laminate coating. Only 250 copies of this box will be available at retail level. The regular double LP will be released shortly thereafter.

| "November 2007, Venice. It was cold, damp and foggy. Nurse With Wound were playing two nights at the Teatro Fondamenta Nuove, with Blind Cave Salamander as support act. Listening to them perform, Steven Stapleton felt that some of what they played reminded him of the classic Nurse work, Soliloquy For Lilith (1988). He suggested that the two bands should explore the possibility of playing live together, to explore that piece with a view to recording an album. Forward to September 2009 when, after rehearsals, Nurse With Wound (Steven Stapleton and Colin Potter) and Blind Cave Salamander (Fabrizio Palumbo, Julia Kent and Paul Beauchamp) perform their live version of Soliloquy for the first time at the Mutamento Festival in Turin. The audience responded with great enthusiasm. The cabbalistic proceedings of that evening are contained on this recording." -United Dirter |

The DVD presents two versions of the entire performance, one from above, and one from a camera rotating constantly around him in a 360 degree circle, as well as a 10-minute "short version" edit of the two." - Dornbracht Culture Projects ALL Region DVD player required. |

Artist: NYOUKIS & JAAP BLONK, DYLAN Title: Dubbletwee Format: LP Label: Ecstatic Peace Country: USA Price: $14.00 |
| "Here is one of the most anticipated head-scratching meeting-of-the (insane) minds recordings ever rumored to have existed: the blabber-gunk vocalistix of Chocolate Monk honcho and musical zone/zap improv outsider and founder of Decaer Pinga (née Prick Decay) Dylan Nyoukis and the high-energy, consistently startled and startling voicebox-tongue shredder, Jaap Blonk. Nyoukis from the UK and Blonk from The Netherlands bash heads and gums together to splat out a relentless and rapacious slew of ululation and indescribable utterance. If vocal duo improv of the most bizarre order is yr meat, then pull a stool up to this table and get a snoot full o what-the-fuck. Wicked weirdness." LP only -- full color jackets -- 400 copies."- Ecstatic Peace |

Artist: NYOUKIS, DYLAN Title: Carrion Hut Format: LP Label: Singing Knives Country: UK Price: $33.00 |
| "Originally a CDR inside early editions of the Inside Wino Lodge LP (No Fun 2009), Carrion Hut is infused with prickly, invasive gurgles and rumblings. Lets turn over the snort-by-snort to Daniel Baker of The Quietus: "The Frosted Growth is an exercise in muddy barbarism; Nyoukiss non-verbal snarls, multitracked into a paranoid ooze that revels in its own ugliness ... [and] gleeful incantation[s] ... recall the genuinely unsettling soundtrack work of Blood Stereo collaborator and Fluxus-inspired multidisciplinary artist Ludo Mich.... [V]ocal manipulations and rackety anti-percussive creaks ... [and] a brutally realist approach to psychedelia through ritual" are "best captured on Late Night Vocal Gravy, a side-long experiment in the rendering of hallucination through sound in which Nyoukis patiently channels psychological dysfunction through bodily suffering and blurts it out into his tape deck.... Strange New Ache ... is a Kafkaesque whirligig.... Like an animalistic satire of a society that has gorged itself silly on everything from junk food to credit ratings, there is vulgarity in abundance on Carrion Hut, but that isnt even half the story." Screened jackets. Edition of 500." - Singing Knives. |

Artist: NYOUKIS, DYLAN Title: The Acrylic Widow Format: LP Label: Discombobulate Country: UK Price: $27.00 |

"Nyoukis! The name trumps hot on the carved brass horn. Gongs crash shrill and slaves shriek aloud. You Sir! Expecting pure vocal gravy like on Carrion Hut or Hora? Madam, perhaps the holy minimal strings like that Golem grey Penderecki served us on Owl Tapes? No. Nein. Nyet. Not the fucking case pal.
Four measured tracks. Two dedicated to the cats thats been making heads turn for a while now (Banana Seymour & that Dogfella exactly) but all washing up a new kind of psychedelic moss. Fresh thin tendrils, easy to snap, but determined to grow among loose grey matter late on into the next day, and the next and the next.
Dry coughs and outta-wack piano chords play into Boy Scout bike repairs, test the bell, spin the wheel! Hot air leaks from a perished rubber hose. With knuckles like hazelnuts, these sounds shine like delicately laid cobblestones, laid end-to-end without no fuss or haste, they are tram tracks. Late night thumps, boof, baff and a lousy Soft Machine organ solo talks a Brighton raver down from gritted jaw oblivion.
Ideas are put through the wringer in stereo effect. The domestic bric-a-brac builds up: a motorcycle revving, the dry crunch of gravel underfoot...a jumble sale of sweaty woollens, singing out through pinched throat to make un-sense of the phrase iss, sum bear-lae-um. An unexpected kitchen sink gamelan makes for a discombobulating listen. Tension is introduced via leathery lunged accordion but theres no crass crescendo. Fading out like a flu virus... Euro voices abound in tangled syntax. Verbs sounds & nouns renamed. Sure, theres blubber and chunder...you, you, you and me thats slam-up-bang to babby titter chat for starters. Then the downs come in re-directed by taut tape loops making the ecstatic, grooving on the surface of a micron-thin bubble. The proclamation, Im right here leaves us in no doubt who you are sharing your damp bedsit with tonight, slurping up the old wine as red as pooled blood. Another take on the stretched ritual. A parrot squawks underwater struggling for fresh O2. Furious eraser scurrying action is met with the stony silence of a 14 year old girl while apples crunch between strong white teeth. Our old friends, words, are worried and fretted in a dark experiment; turned over looking for new seams and valves to shuck and prise open like ripe clams until mucus-like muscle slips free and falls to the flagstones below. This is a living séance with The Acrylic Widow. Wisdom from the Old Ones, the thin Venn diagram slice between frantic scuttling & sweet Miskatonic stoned." - Discombobulate. |

Artist: NYOUKIS, DYLAN Title: The Shield That Pierces the Earth Format: LP Label: Catsup Plate Country: USA Price: $16.00 |
|
"The Shield That Pierces the Earth is the first solo LP from Dylan Nyoukis, the Scottish raconteur best known for his work in the prolific and somewhat controversial Prick Decay (a.k.a. Decaer Pinga). Im sure that Prick Decays very name has, in the past, led people to believe that their records contain some sonic equivalent of the contentious name: an abrasive mish-mash of horrendous screams, power electronics, guitars being chainsawed apart, or some similarly aggressive, but ultimately boring and pointless brand of noise. Thats a shame because their work owes much more to the weird and subtle minutiae of sound than any sort of "bombast"-the same goes for The Shield That Pierces the Earth. Dylan has described Shield as his "folk" record (theres some sort of pun to be made with Dylan and folk no doubt), probably because he is using more plucked guitar (cf. "Clays Festering Lungs") and less tape collage than his past recordings with Prick Decay. But theres very little in terms of structure or melody that might remind the listener of "folk" per se. If anything, the music that this bears the most resemblance to is that of Southeast Asia, though more in the way of the experimentation of the Sun City Girls or Climax Golden Twins than anything that might be termed "authentic." As Temp Webber puts it in the sleeve notes, this is more reminiscent of "folk music for insects" than anything else: mixed in with the guitar plucking and keyboard tones are alien clicks and squeaks and other audio detritus. At times it sounds like the music was recorded in some antiquated factory or by a mutant colony of ants or under some other set of conditions that might produce the organic weirdness contained in this record." - Catsup Plate.
