Redeye Label of the Month Q&A Learn more about our partners in our Monthly Label Spotlight!

This Issue: Marc Jetton at Sargent House

How did you personally get started in the music industry?

My very first job in the music industry was doing Indie Retail Marketing at Interscope Records. I worked with indie record stores and coalitions on different marketing initiatives. I learned a lot and met so many great people in the indie retail community during that time, most of which are still thriving today.

When and where did the label begin?

Sargent House was initially founded as a management company in 2006 by my partner Cathy Pellow, eventually becoming a label out of necessity to help the band Rx Bandits get out of a bad deal and release their album …And The Battle Begun. I came over a short time after to help build the label side of the company.

Is there a genre that you would consider to be the label’s “signature style,” or is it a mix?

I don’t think there’s a specific genre, we work with artists on music we love. A lot of it is forward thinking or left of center, but that’s just what we’re drawn to and find most compelling.

What is the meaning behind the name for the label?

Sargent House was named after a historic home in Echo Park that Cathy owned. It was an amazing four story house that doubled as our office and a place where artists would stay.

How has the label changed since it started?

We’ve obviously expanded our roster and grown as a company, but our philosophy has remained the same; we only work with music we’re passionate about from artists we believe in and strive to help them make a living doing what they love.

How would you describe the average fan of the label?

Passionate and engaged. We’re so lucky to work with artists that create powerful and intricate records, and I think it encourages fans to experience the entire album more often than engaging with individual singles.The music often demands an actively listening experience vs something to passively have on in the background. I also believe that’s why we’ve consistently seen fans choose vinyl over any other format.

Where do you go to search for new music? Who or what has been a new find (on the label or otherwise) you’d like to rave about?

We look everywhere, but recommendations are usually the best, especially when they come from our artists. The latest signing to Sargent House is Hammok, an incredible new band out of Norway.

The album they’ve just completed is phenomenal, extremely excited for everyone to hear it in 2026.

We know you can’t choose, but what’s been your favorite label release, and why?

Choosing just one is tough because I truly love all of our releases, but I’ll pick Russian Circles Memorial. It was our second official release with them and marked a huge step for the band, both sonically and gaining more fans. It also capped off an incredible year for the label. The guys in Russian Circles are awesome people and total pros; they’ve helped pave the way for so many bands and are a prime example of how to continuously build your fanbase with each release.

What’s the wildest marketing promotion you’ve ever worked on for any release?

The Armed ULTRAPOP was a blast! It was originally scheduled for release in 2020 but moved it to 2021 because of the pandemic so we had a bit more time to cultivate ideas. Everything was based on the fan experience and interaction; Between the ARG game the band created, the fan funded billboards that ran in major cities, incredible press coverage and the full concert film we produced at the Masonic Temple in Detroit, the hype for that album continued to build and ultimately delivered. It was a lot of fun to work on and felt rewarding to see it be successful. It was released in April 2021, right when people were starting to get vaccinated, so there was a really positive and optimistic vibe around everything, which probably contributed to how engaging it all felt. The Armed’s new album The Future is Here and Everything Needs To Be Destroyed has a more cynical take on the state of our collective experience right now, but arguably even more cathartic.

What in your opinion has been the biggest change in the music industry from when you first started compared to now?

The digital marketplace is obviously the most significant transformation. When I began, legal downloads were considered an insignificant part of the overall business. Everyone in the industry, including stores, were concerned with the increased adoption of piracy.

What’s more remarkable is the resilience and adaptability of independent record stores. They’ve continued to innovate and flourish regardless of whatever new formats or options pop up, and will continue to thrive while large corporations use music as a loss leader to sell other shit. It’s the sense of community built around these stores that makes them irreplaceable, and we’re so incredibly thankful for the support they’ve shown us and the artists we work with over the past 20 years!

They say our sun will explode in about 5 billion years or sohow would you like the label to be remembered?

Who really thinks this planet will be around in 50 years, let alone 5 billion? I’m hopeful that we’ll get through the next few years without the world exploding, but I truly believe so many of the artists we’ve worked with have created albums that will stand the test of (remaining) time.

U.S. MAPLE

Starting in the mid-90s, the U.S. Maple saga was rent open, seam by seam, over ten long, sweaty years, like a ripple of mirages exploding up around the bend.

Theirs was a dues-paid elevation of good old rock ‘n roll values that reached dizzyingly high, past the blunt force of their immediate 80s90s forebears and the magisterial arc of the venerated classic rockers before them. Their music is a rapacious, constantly morphing ooze through which can be sighted gristled flecks and shards of glam, punk, blues, metal, funk, jazz and other denuded musical formations to be grabbed upon and squeezed til the juice runs down your leg.

Talker, their Drag City debut, came on in the summer of 1999, its discrete shades of soundscape yawning like an open fly, dangling like shirttails through silence into previously unimagined spaces of width and depth. Having Swans’ Michael Gira on to produce was big, but bigger still was the group’s vigilant sense of what they were up to — at that exact moment, a sequence of ‘back to school’ reflections with singer Al Johnson as your skeezy JD/Virgilian guide. Their tactile cloak of intimacies/detritus/little jokes/lucid dreams/vast emptiness was the perfect cover for a deceptive populism.

Released in April 2001, Acre Thrills is the most danceable, sensual and subcutaneous of all their offerings, “Ma Digital” their most kicking song EVER. It ain’t alone — captured by Brian Paulson, the workings of the trio within the quartet were greased to absolute slickness, with Todd Rittmann/Mark Shippy’s guitars and Pat Samson’s drums collectively divining and conquering the songs’ rhythm and harmony, while also playing in what appeared to be their own private imaginations. With his signature succession of consumptive wheezes and acid-tongued utterances, Al Johnson — for some, the most unlikely front man of the rock ‘n roll era (and to others, their own private Jim Morrison) — drew it all together immaculately.

Their final LP, recorded with Jeremy Lemos, Purple On Time dropped in late 2003, and found new drummer Adam Vida cannily replacing the fairly departed Pat Samson. With consolidations and developments heavy on the ground, the band once more surged and retarded in near-orchestral precision, as Johnson's voice swooped through fresh ranges. The songs were tangy, more rock than ever, yet just as potent when it came to drawing forth that thrusting, demented hip-shake that they induced in their faithful.

By popular demand, Queens of the Stone Age are releasing the audio of their spellbinding Alive in the Catacombs performance, available on black vinyl at your local record store September 26, 2025.

Filmed and recorded in July 2024, Alive in the Catacombs captures QOTSA as you’ve never seen or heard them before. This utterly unique once in a lifetime experience features a carefully selected setlist spanning the QOTSA catalog, each song chosen and epically reimagined for the Catacombs.

The result is an unprecedented incarnation of QOTSA at their most intimate, yet surrounded by literally millions of human remains— “the biggest audience we’ve ever played for,” says Joshua Homme.

Words fail to convey the magnificence of Queens of the Stone Age: Alive in the Catacombs. Its truly stunning balance of subtlety and grandeur must be experienced to be appreciated. The beauty is in the struggle (both internal and external).

This is Joshua Homme at his most physically vulnerable yet ultimately his most triumphant.

NON EXPORTABLE RELEASE DATE: SEPTEMBER 26, 2025 505 Eno Street Hillsborough NC 27278 United States (877) 733-3931

The AITC film and subsequent vinyl release is QOTSA distilled down to their most elemental form— Joshua Homme, Troy Van Leeuwen, Michael Shuman, Dean Fertita and Jon Theodore augmented by a three-piece string section, employing chains and chopsticks as makeshift percussion instruments.

Entirely unfiltered, every song was recorded live in a complete take with no overdubs or edits. The audio was recorded by Mark Rankin, François-Xavier Delaby, Henri d’Armancourt and Alban Lejeune, and was produced by Mark Rankin. Final mixes by Mark Rankin, Joshua Homme and Michael Shuman.

Mulatu Astatke Mulatu Plays Mulatu Strut presents Mulatu Plays Mulatu, the first major studio album in over 10 years from the father of Ethio-jazz, Mulatu Astatke.

Featuring masterful new arrangements of some of his classic compositions, Mulatu Plays Mulatu finds Mulatu revisiting the sounds that helped to change the face of Ethiopian music during the late ‘60s and early ‘70s. The album was recorded between London and Addis Ababa, working with his long-standing UK band, a tight, intuitive ensemble honed through years of live performance, alongside cultural musicians resident at his Jazz Village club in Addis.

Mulatu Plays Mulatu realises Mulatu’s long-term vision of Ethio-jazz, intricately balancing Western jazz arrangements with the rich sounds of traditional Ethiopian instruments including the krar, masenqo, washint, kebero and begena. Throughout the album, he reshapes familiar material with rich textures, expanded improvisations and a deepened rhythmic complexity, creating a body of work that feels as vital and contemporary as it does steeped in tradition. Familiar compositions like ‘Yekermo Sew’, ‘Netsanet’ and the celebratory ‘Kulun’ are reinvented here as elegant big band performances.

Tracklist Vinyl:

“Ethio-jazz brings us together and makes us one,” explains Mulatu. “This album is the culmination of my work bringing this music to the world and pays respect to our unsung heroes, the original musical scientists in Ethiopia who gave us our cultural music.”

Side A A1. Zelesenga Dewel A2. Kulun A3. Netsanet

Bridging continents and generations throughout his 50-year career, Astatke now offers us an invitation to hear his music again, with a completely fresh perspective.

Ethio-jazz, like its creator, is always in motion.

Side B B1. Yekermo Sew B2. Chik Chikka B3. Motherland B4. Yekatit

Mulatu Plays Mulatu was produced by Dexter Story and features contemporary artists LA-based artists Carlos Niño and Kibrom Birhane. The album was recorded and mixed by Isabel Gracefield at RAK Studios in London and by Dexter Story in Addis. The inspired album artwork was created by acclaimed Oslo-based Ethiopian artist, Wendimagegn Belete with photography by Alexis Maryon.

key points Mulatu Plays Mulatu marks Mulatu Astatke’s first major studio album in over a decade, reinventing his classic compositions in his pioneered Ethio-jazz style.

Bleding Western jazz with traditional Ethiopian instruments (krar, masenqo, washint, kebero, begena), reflecting Mulatu’s long-term vision for Ethio-jazz.

Peyton — Au Stones Throw Records | STH2475LP 12 September 2025 | Gold color vinyl, lyric insert | R&B / Alt R&B / Soul 26

Houston based R&B artist Peyton is back with a new album. Au is a record rooted in honesty and emotional self-preservation.

On Au, Peyton navigates betrayal, confusion, and disappointment, but she never loses sight of joy. Au is about taking the high road, even when it would feel easier not to.

Au was shaped in tight collaboration with visionary producer Sha q Husayn (Bilal, Free Nationals, Robert Glasper, Erykah Badu). The album features guests including Brian Alexander Morgan, Didda Joe, Sunni Colon, and co-

production and instrumentation across the record from Om’Mas Keith (Frank Ocean, John Legend, Jay-Z).

Caamp formed when Taylor Meier and Evan Westfall met and bonded over a shared love of music and a shared love of home, specifically the inspiration they culled from the Midwest lives they grew up in. The two began writing and performing and quickly grew a rabid fan base. A self-titled 2016 debut album took flight, Evan and Taylor brought on a third member and longtime friend, Matt Vinson, to join on bass just before recording By and By. In week one of the release of their full length, By and By on Mom + Pop, Caamp made multiple chart debuts. By and By entered the Billboard Top 200, was the #1 Heatseeker, #1 on the New Artist Alternative Albums, top 5 vinyl album sales for the week and entered the Alternative and Emerging Artist charts. Caamp then scored their first #1 at radio with their single “Peach Fuzz,” made their late night television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and followed that up with a killer performance on CBS This Morning Saturday. After a victorious 2019 festival season playing Firefly, Shaky Knees, Forecastle, Outside Lands, Austin City Limits, Great Escape and many more, Caamp kicked off a major US headlin- ing tour in September of 2019 and sold out show after show. In early 2020, Caamp performed on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The performance was filmed in Caamp’s hometown of Columbus, OH during quarantine. The trio later released their first live EP Live From Newport Music Hall. The five track recording was taken from one of their seminal hometown shows in Columbus, OH. The recording contains live versions of songs off their most recent album, By and By. Not long after the release of Live From Newport Music Hall, Caamp kept themselves busy by releasing the singles and companion videos for “Officer Of Love” and “Fall Fall Fall” via their label home, Mom + Pop. The band then celebrated another victory in 2020 with their single “By and By” resting snugly in the Top 5 Most Spun on Sirius XM’s Alt Nation. They kicked off 2021 with “Officer of Love” hitting #1 at AAA radio for 2 consecutive weeks. In 2022, the band will release their highlyanticipated album “Lavender Days” featuring “Believe”.

Two Seminal albums from cult Ghanaian musician Alhaji K. Frimpong and his group the Cubano Fiestas, recorded in 1976 and 1977 respectively and considered to be some of the best highlife albums ever recorded, at the pinnacle of West African musical tradition and innovation.

Both originally self titled, they have become known by the colour of the covers - Blue and Black respectively. The Blue Album brings new arrangements to traditional Ghanaian melodies and features the masterpiece Kyenkyen Bi Adi M’awu (come back my love) - universally known in Ghana, covered and sampled by artists such as Chronnix, Gnarls Barkley and many more.

The Black Album expands the electronic elements and features the equally visionary Hwehwe Mu Na Yi Wo Mpena, although the real gem is hiding on the B side: the extended groove of “Adam Nana”. Sinuously evolving guitar lines, clavinet vamps, harmonised vocal snatches and otherworldly percussion expand and contract over a full quarter of an hour - a Ghanaian repost to the Afro Jazz experiments going on at the same time on the other side of the Atlantic.

Although popular in Ghana at the time of the release, the albums were never distributed internationally and original copies of the album are extremely rare. The albums got a limited reissue in 2011 and have been unavailable since - even reissue copies sell for high prices on the second hand market.

GLASS BEAMS MAHAL EP Releasing Sept 26, 2025 Glass Beams are releasing a highly limited edition cassette format of their breakthrough 2024 EP Mahal. Originally sold on tour as a merch item, the initial run sold out quickly and an additional run is now being made available for indie retailers.

The flip side to the cassette is the first release of audio from the bands much loved live performance session of the EP, which has clocked up over 8.5M views on YouTube!

Originally pressed last year limited edition orange vinyl, this format quickly sold out ahead of release date globally and has since been available on unlimited black vinyl. The demand for covetable physical formats from Glass Beams has been bolstered by their incredible live presence - since releasing the EP in May the band has returned to North America 4 times to sell out their debut shows at NYC’s Knockdown Center (3k) and LA’s Walter (2.3k) as well as shows in 24 states (+4 Canadian provinces), appear at festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, III Points, Austin City Limits and Portola. Glass Beams are currently special guests on Rufus Du Sol’s massive US stadium run, and in 2025 have also toured with St. Vincent and Leon Bridges.

Tracklisting The EP radio support has been huge with adds and plays from SiriusXM, KEXP, KCRW, WUNC, KAXE and many more. They have hit #1 on the NACC Top World Chart as well as charting on airplay charts across NonComm and AAA. They recorded their first radio session for KEXP last Spring which is now the most watched session from the station in over five years! The numbers accumulated by the band online has been nothing short of astonishing, with well over 500M views and engagements on the EP and over 100k usages of the sounds on socials.

The genesis of Glass Beams, which formed around founding member Rajan Silva, stemmed from the rekindling of childhood memories related to his father, who emigrated to Melbourne from India in the late 1970s. Silva, in particular, was drawn to the fusion of Western musical styles and traditional Indian music showcased in his father's music collection. This cross-pollination of East and West, of old and new, is a sentiment that the trio have sought to capture in their self-produced, serpentine, psychedelic-tinged music.

Throughout their output, Glass Beams present a timeless fusion of cultures and sounds beamed through a prism of live instrumentation and DIY electronica, all wrapped up in a mesmerising visual world of their own creation.

John Maus

LATER THAN YOU THINK STREET DATE: 09/26/2025

On September 26th, 2025, two decades into a boundary-pushing career, American musician, composer, and academic John Maus will release his most powerful work yet: Later Than You Think. Arriving via his new label Young (FKA twigs, The xx, Sampha), the album explores themes of justice, confession, rebirth, transformation, and spiritual warfare, further expanding the liminal space where outsider art collides with art-pop, raw emotion, and intellectual depth.

Indie Ice Blue LP YO-422-LPE 889030042200 File Under: Indie/Alternative LP: YO-422-LP 889030042217 File Under: Indie/Alternative

CD: YO-422-CD 889030042224 File Under: Indie/Alternative

A 21st-century philosopher-musician, Maus has earned a mythic reputation for his fierce belief in the emotional weight of sound, eccentric interpretations of pop and baroque, and legendary, cathartic live shows. Holding a degree in experimental music from CalArts and a PhD in political science from the University of Hawaii, he’s been dubbed a “philosopher pop star” and “nostalgic futurist” for the way he merges academic rigor with lo-fi synth-pop aesthetics. His influence spans high and low culture—from UK grime icon Skepta, who sampled his track “I’m Only Human,” to Josh Safdie, Natasha Lyonne, nettspend and collaborators like Panda Bear and Molly Nilsson.

With five previous albums under his belt - Songs (2006), Love Is Real (2007), We Must Become The Pitiless Censors of Ourselves (2011), Screen Memories (2017) and Addendum (2018) - Maus has carved out a singular path and loyal fanbase along the way. His upcoming single “I Hate Antichrist,” out in June, is accompanied by a video from director Andrew Norman Wilson (U2, Oneohtrix Point Never), and marks a bold first step into this new era. A handful of intimate live shows will follow, giving fans a rare, close-up look at his visceral solo performances.

At the heart of Later Than You Think is a sense of urgent renewal— lush yet sparse, sacred yet irreverent, it’s a radical reawakening from one of music’s most enigmatic minds.

What is life but an endless series of “uh oh”s? From our earliest childhood accidents to our most overwhelming adult anxieties, it’s a little phrase that looms large throughout our existence. Just ask Montreal indie-pop maestro Patrick Watson who was recently faced with the biggest “uh oh” a professional singer could endure: losing his voice.

Patrick Watson composes, performs, and records his albums with his long-time bandmates, collaborator and multi-instrumentalist, Mishka Stein and Olivier Fairfield. Over the course of his career, Patrick has retained the uncanny ability to coexist in mainstream pop-culture spaces and on the avant-garde fringes. He’s an artist who’s as comfortable performing impromptu pop-up shows on the train tracks in a Quebec mining town as he is leading the BBC Orchestra at London’s prestigious Barbican. But whether you discovered Patrick Watson through your local indie record shop, a movie soundtrack, a social-media video, a European music festival, his hit collaboration with Cinematic Orchestra (2007’s “To Build a Home”), or through his appearance alongside Patti Smith and Michael Stipe at the 2021 Pathway to Paris all-star benefit concert, his music has a similar effect on all who enter his kaleidoscopic sound-world. The songs of Patrick Watson transform your everyday surroundings into your own imaginary wonderland, translating stress and sorrow into joy, and helping you find peace within the chaos of modern life.

CAMPAIGN HIGHLIGHTS New album features collaborations with Anachnid, Charlotte Cardin, Charlotte Oleena, Hohnen Ford, Klô Pelgag, La Force, MARO, Martha Wainwright, November Ultra and Solann, out September 26, 2025.

First two singles "Silencio" feat. November Ultra and "Gordon in the Willows" feat. Charlotte Cardin cumulated over 7 million streams together.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Patrick Watson has significant DSP and social media numbers: 860K+ Spotify followers, 9,6M+ Spotify Monthly Listeners, close to 1M combined social following, billions of views on TikTok, 2+ billion global streams, 15m+ TikTok Creations and 18m+ Shazams.

Single ‘Je te laisserai des mots’ is one of the biggest songs of all time: first French-language song to reach over 1 billion streams on Spotify, certified Platinum in the USA, France, UK, Australia, Canada, and multiple other countries and reached billions of views on social platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, and more.

Sync placement in hundreds of TV shows and films, including Grey’s Anatomy, This Is Us, The Walking Dead, The Blacklist, The F Word, American Teen, Denis Villeneuve's Polytechnique, Win Wenders' Oscar-nominated Perfect Days and more. Watson was awarded the prestigious inaugural Impact Award at the 2024 Canadian Sync Awards.

Past media support includes NPR’s Tiny Desk and NPR’s All Song Considered, The New York Times, Genious, Stereogum, Paste, The FADER, Brooklyn Vegan, Cool Hunting, WNYC, KCRW, Sirius XM North Americana, and more.

Toured extensively across the United States throughout his career, including two dates at the Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever (Los Angeles), Webster Hall (New York / 1500 capacity), The Sinclair (Cambridge), Union Stage (Washington), World Cafe Live (Philadelphia), and more.

Past festival performances include SXSW, Bonaroo, Austin City Limits, Treefort Music Fest, Sasquatch Festival, Pickathon, Forecastle Festival, Midpoint Festival, River to River Festival, CMJ Music Marathon and more.

Glixen Quiet Pleasures (EP) BACK IN STOCK ON BLACK MARBLE VINYL RELEASE DATE: SEPTEMBER 26TH, 2025 Arriving as a standout group in the current American shoegaze renaissance, Phoenix four-piece Glixen transcend all expectations of what the genre should currently look and sound like.

The band creates a profoundly heavy sonic experience with their music, paying respects to their predecessors but resulting in something completely modern. An amalgamation of influences like Björk, My Bloody Valentine, Godflesh, t.A.T.u, and Hum, their sound crawls with intensity and introspection to contrast lead singer Aislinn Ritchie’s lulling vocals.

The last few years have been quite a whirlwind for Scottish pop duo The Cords. Sisters Eva and Grace take their cues from forebears like Dolly Mixture, Shop Assistants, Heavenly and Tiger Trap, reinvigorating the C86 sound with style and infectious enthusiasm. Since starting in 2023 they've released a cassette single and a Christmas flexi that garnered airplay and breathless press from around the International Pop Underground, and played with everyone from The Vaselines (their first show!) to Shonen Knife, BMX Bandits, The Go! Team and Camera Obscura.

Recorded over the course of six days with Jonny Scott (CHVRCHES), their self-titled debut album is some of the most vital indiepop we've heard in years, bursting with boundless energy, youthful confidence, lively melodies and most importantly terrific tunes. From album opener (and first single) "Fabulist" to the heads-down rush of "October," from the punk-ish thrill of "You" to the instant classic "I'm Not Sad," The Cords have crafted a debut that handily transcends their influences and shows their firm grasp of all that makes great, timeless *pop*. By the time the dreamy slow-dance closer "When You Said Goodbye" rolls around you can't help but have fallen in love with indiepop all over again, and the only thing to do is lift the needle, flip the record, and start it over.

Nine years since her last record, Emma Pollock returns with her most personal album yet, on which she presents honest and raw songwriting with a trio of vocals/guitar, piano, and cello. The effect is arresting, allconsuming, and quietening. Curiosity and revelation, playfulness and melancholy coexist in a singular space.

Black vinyl LP with a gatefold sleeve limited to 1000 copies worldwide.

Live One is the legendary recording of COIL's much anticipated performance in April of 2000 at London's Royal Festival Hall (as part of Julian Cope's “Cornucopea“ mini festival).

Whilst there had been abortive attempts at live shows in the early 1980s, this concert is universally considered the veritable COIL live debut.

With a line-up of John Balance, Peter “Sleazy“ Christopherson, Thighpaulsandra and Ossian Brown, COIL took the RFH stage decked out in their custom designed fluffy polar Teletubby suits to perform a supremely hypnotic set, somewhat reminiscent of their seminal Time Machines release but adding variation and tension largely absent from that drone masterpiece. Balance's vocal delivery on “Queens of the Circulating Library“ is still a very controlled but effective affair and quite different from his later manic outbursts.

The show itself as well as the long-out of print and now much sought after 2003 CD release were extremely well received and became the cornerstone of a quick succession of COIL tours in the intervening four short years until Balance's untimely death.

This first ever double vinyl version of this fantastic historic document of the COIL experience has been fully overseen by surviving member Thighpaulsandra and is available now on the Retractor label, presented in a lavish gatefold sleeve and pressed on 180g vinyl.

GIGGS Let Em Ave It

STREET DATE: September 26th, 2025

A truly unique voice, Giggs’ combination of slow flow, dark lyrics, a well-documented past and explosive street sales saw him hailed as one of the most exciting voices in British rap. He first burst onto the scene in 2008 with his debut ‘Talkin The Hardest’ a freestyle which has become one of British rap’s biggest anthems (over 12M views at YouTube). Giggs’ sold tens of thousands of copies of his mixtapes on his own SN1 (Spare No 1) label and won 2008’s BET Award for Best British Hip Hop Act before signing to XL Recordings for his iconic debut proper, ‘Let Em Ave It’ in 2010.

15 years on the album gets its first ever release on vinyl, featuring bonus tracks from the era that originally appeared as singles, including ‘Talking The Hardest’ and ‘Slow Songs’ featuring The Streets’ Mike Skinner.

GENRE: Electronic FILE UNDER: “P” for Prekop, Sam RELEASE DATE: 26-September-2025 NO EXPORT Sam Prekop’s work over the last 30 years, whether created primarily on his guitar or on his modular synth, is consistent in its powerful melodicism, delicate arrangements and subtle evolution. Prekop’s singular blend of melody, impressionistic lyricism and quietly intricate rhythms are the core of the singular sound of The Sea and Cake. Since 2010’s Old Punch Card, Prekop’s exploration of modular synthesis and electronic atmospheres, has come into its own. Highly skilled at manipulating the sonic interplay, Prekop has established a sytle all his own, his pieces are complex expressing real movement. Harmonies bloom with granular detail and contrary to their machine sources are able to convey emotion. Open Close is an album that captures the flow and energy of a live performance through the lens of a deft craftsman, an equilibrium of intuitive composition and the excitement of possibility.

TRACK LISTING:

Much of the music of Open Close was composed for live performance as Prekop prepared for a series of shows both solo and in collaboration with Laraaji. Prekop had been developing new approaches since the release of Comma in 2020 and his collaborative album Sons Of with John McEntire, incorporating their more rhythm-forward constructions and diverging in new invigorating directions. “In my mind that’s what the modular is really good at doing, adding interesting and less predictable textural elements,” notes Prekop. “That’s only one part of the dialog though. It energizes the other sounds and voices. Along with the steady rhythmic pulses I’ve been gravitating towards, the juxtaposition of those elements becomes a form of architecture within abstraction, just by imposing them on each other and layering them in a precise way.”

Sam Prekop is a highly regarded multi-disciplinary artist. Since 2010 Prekop has released a series of highly acclaimed analog synthesizer albums, both solo and collaborative with John McEntire (Tortoise).

The music of Open Close brims with an exhilarating array of textural combinations and melodic turns. Longform pieces like title track “Open Close” and centerpiece “Light Shadow” build entire metropolises, dense with elements that dot the stereo field with vibrant, glimmering lights. The sound world of Open Close is Prekop’s richest, most lush compositions yet they still sound more spacious and expansive, than ever before. Acting as a near-facsimile to creating space for improvisers, the pieces leave air for singular voices to propel the pieces forward with melodic motion, often surrounded by gorgeous, swirling ornaments comping around them.

SALES POINTS

Prekop has scored films for Director Gary Hustwit (Eno, Helvetica), and acclaimed video artist, writer David Hartt. A soundtrack for Hartt’s film was released as The Republic.

Alongside his Solo work Sam Prekop is a well respected for his influential band The Sea and Cake, as well as his work as a visual artist, with photos, drawings, and paintings used for a number of album covers. Open Close artwork photography & drawings are by Prekop.

Prekop’s live performances include collaborations with Susan Cianni, Laraaji, Rob Mazurek, John Mcentire, Bang on a Can and SML.

The music of Sam Prekop is defined by his signature curiosity and his ability to mold and refine that curiosity into a wholly unique sound. His process in naming album Open Close mirrors his creative practice and the worlds he builds across the album: “I like simple words that become complicated if you think of them more than a second or two, beyond face value. And Open Close could be: close as in ‘close to you’ or close as in ‘close the door.’ If it gives everything away too quickly, then I’m not interested.” Each movement across Open Close is replete with simple gestures that suggest new complexities with Prekop’s careful arrangements. Open Close unearths new, soulfully human sounds from synthetic textures precisely juxtaposed, its subtle contrasts in texture and rhythm are a free-flowing celebration of sonics as stunning as they are ephemeral.

Open Close is available in CD and LP formats, with a limited number of Coke Bottle Clear LPs available. All versions include a digital download card.

“Wonderfully warm and rhythmically provocative... while the choice to make an all-machine album after three decades of mixing experimentalism and pop; freeform and precision; acoustics and electronics, hardly seems revelatory on the surface, the results most certainly are.” - Bandcamp

“Every track is awash in sumptuous, eminently hummable melodies; the album swells with a newfound sense of joy.”

-Pitchfork, Best New Music “The best improvisation transforms music into a living thing.”

GENRE: Contemporary Electronic FILE UNDER: “T” for Takemura, Nobukazu RELEASE DATE: 26-September-2025 NO EXPORT

Nobukazu Takemura’s music is singular in its ability to create a musical sense of childlike wonder and curiosity, with gracefully executed yet complex compositions. His pieces embody an innocence and the intricacies of selfdiscovery that every human is faced with as their worlds become more complex.

An acclaimed artist and composer, Takemura is known for his idiosyncratic music and video artistry as well as his prolific collaborations including those with Tortoise, Yo La Tengo, DJ Spooky and Steve Reich. knot of meanings, Takemura’s first proper album in a decade, finds the Japanese artist wrestling with the rise of technological influence on art and culture in the modern era, in tandem with his own relationship to religion, and where those struggles meet.

Like the colorful, irregularly shaped glasses on the cover, the album is a mosaic of technicolor elements that come together to form a complete picture, a dense portrait of interconnected struggles and triumphs.

The sprawling 18 pieces of knot of meanings sift, tumble and stutter against obstacles as they bloom with moments of distinct beauty. The album makes expert use of Takemura’s signature blend of electro-acoustic arrangements, inquisitive melodic fluidity and tonal poetry. Gentle vibraphone plonks are layered with synthetic horn lines. An electric piano follows guest vocalist doro’s melodies across “savonarola’s insight” where electronic strings lope beneath her on “the gulf” in steady, staccato harmonies that build and break tension.

Pieces like “ladder of meaning” showcase just how diverse Takemura’s sound palette can be, an emotive compositional metaphor blending field recordings, text-to-speech allegory, glitching electronics and sparkling glockenspiel which explodes in waves on “iron staircase”. Cymbals and snare drums are used less as time-keeping rhythmic devices as they are drops of rain pattering against surreal landscapes or roiling thunder crashing into sparse arrangements. In resistance to stagnation and repetition, the compositions flow freely, but with resolute purpose in their movements. Musically and metaphorically uncovering joy in trying to answer a question only to find more questions.

Throughout the album, Takemura exudes an unpredictability that builds surprise from unlikely combinations of instruments, tonalities and harmonic motions that embody bewildering knots to untangle, held together with a youthful sense of wonder. “I attended a Catholic kindergarten as a child and cherished those early years, which laid the foundations for my future. This is in part why I have always used the keyword ‘child’ in my work as an adult,” notes Takemura. knot of meanings culminates his use of that child’s perspective, or as Takemura has used extensively, that “Child’s View” to explore deeper life philosophies to ecstatic ends. The meanings and mysteries contained within make for an enchanting excavation for those attuned to deep listening, a journey that rewards the kind of inquiring open-mindedness of the listener.

ALSO AVAILABLE FROM Nobukazu Takemura: “Sign” CD (12.20) | “Mimic Robot” LP (12.25) “Hoshi No Koe” CD/LP (Thrill 094) “10th” CD (Thrill 118)

SALES POINTS Nobukazu Takemura began as a Battle-DJ in Kyoto, Japan. In 1988 he joined Audio Sports the now legendary hip hop unit also featuring Eye of the Boredoms.

Takemura has released 20 albums under his own name, DJ names and Child’s View. The name Child’s View aptly describes a core theme of his music, to create melodies that musically capture a sense of wonder, a childlike innocence and curiosity.

Nobukazu Takemura’s collaborations are impressive and vast from Tortoise, Steve Reich, Jim O’Rourke, Takako Minekawa, Yo La Tengo, Aki Onknu, Dj Spooky and Blue Note Records, to collaborations with Sony creating all the sounds for their futuristic Aibo, a robot dog, or creating music for several collections designed by Issey Miyake. His compositions have been performed by artists such as Bang on a Can. knot of meanings is available in a CD and Limited Clear Color 2xLP. All versions include a digital download card.

“Japanese composer Nobukazu Takemura, who turned in a brilliant set of electronica...At points the music turned radiant, glowing with major harmonies, the pulse of the music driving. The music makes you concentrate, it promotes ecstasy.” - NY Times “Takemura has an uncanny understanding of [a child’s] perspective, and even more amazing, realizes how to turn it into music.” - Pitchfork “Nobukazu Takemura is one prolific musician/composer...[his music has an] engagingly meditative, enquiring quality to it... a realm where an anime character appears to have jumped media and stepped from the world of comic books and screens right into the circuitry of a computer, sparking up the motherboard, making the monitor nod in time and the keyboard dance with the mouse. This music may have a similar effect upon you.” - BBC Music “An act of jaw-dropping beauty by creating gigantic, long-form, everlooping meditations with broken sound, which gave Terry Riley a run for his money...” - PopMatters

Tosca - J.A.C. (20th Anniversary Reissue) The downtempo legacy of Tosca continues. Originally released in 2005, J.A.C. is the fourth studio album by the Austrian duo - an album dedicated to their then newly born sons, “Joshua, Arthur, Conrad”. For its 20th anniversary, which also marks !K7's 40th anniversary, it has been fully remastered and compiled into a beautiful gatefold 2LP. Between the release of their classic Dehli 9 and J.A.C., the two entered fatherhood.

As all Tosca albums relate to biographic events in the life of Huber and Dorfmeister, the birth of their sons naturally called for an album dedication.

J.A.C. is perhaps the most consistent formulation of both, the carefree and melancholic sound of Tosca.

The melodies quicken, the grooves are funky and laidback and the variety of musical styles are marked by a wide choice. Additionally, from 2003 onwards, Tosca became a full band, with live debuts by the side of the likes of Earl Zinger, MC Farda P (Rockers Hi-Fi) and Graf Hadik.

It's this new found live experience and the increased interest in the digitally untouched sound of real instruments that marks the character of this landmark Tosca album the most, besides the characteristic Tosca mood.

On her latest release Alex E.T. slings her personal potion of dirty jangle, weaving swirling, crunching guitars with infectious melodies and high caliber, pop infused song-craft. The album marks a bold evolution in Alex E.T.’s sound—melding woozy psych-rock roots with punky energy and an uptempo edge.

Color of Strange took shape after Alex opened for heavy-psych legend Dead Meadow, catching the attention of Brent Rademaker (Beachwood Sparks, Curation Records), who offered his support. This connection led to collaborations with esteemed rock engineer Eric Bauer (Ty Segall, Osees, Wand) and producer Ethan Miller (Heron Oblivion, Howlin’ Rain, Comets on Fire), resulting in a dynamic, hi-fi album whose sound blends 60s and 70s psychedelia, 80s paisley underground and post-punk, combined with sneaky nods to 90s indie rock.

"Color of Strange is a rough-cut chunk of Los Angeles' grand musical myth in a bottle.

The echoes of early Slash Records and LA's '80s psychedelic renaissance abound, not to mention a beautiful, gravity-defying voice blooming out of dirty jangle and fuzz-blasted guitars." - Producer Ethan Miller (Howlin’ Rain, Heron Oblivion) Marketing & Selling Points ●​

STREET DATE 26/9/25

CAT.#NSR09092025

Pat McLaughlin is a maverick. A revered, if a bit enigma c, Singer-Songwriter and guitarist that has spent years honing his layered style. Dedicated only to the pursuit of a new groove or an old feeling, his songs rehash the sights and the sounds of a reformed nomad with roots in Iowa State, footprints in San Francisco, New Orleans and Chicago and a home in Nashville. He possesses a voice that makes him a soul singer, a blues singer, a rock singer… he embodies everything in himself, in his powerful vocal style and percussive, groovy, guitar strumming. Not surprisingly, Rolling Stone called Pat “a tasty, rootsy gem”. “Nashville A er Dark” was recorded at Third and Lindsley in Nashville in September 2018 with a stellar band composed of Kenny Greenberg on lead guitar, Michael Rhodes on bass and Greg Morrow on drums. These guys are masters of the instrument they choose to play and propell Pat’s vocals and Telecaster into a cap va ng musical journey like there’s no tomorrow.

"No one since Dan Penn has be er mixed '60s soul idioms with country music sen ment," proclaimed the Chicago Sun-Times. "Pat McLaughlin is an American treasure." In fact he prompted the Tennessean's Peter Cooper to spout poetry: "Groove and soul, slink and stu er, groove and soul, wisdom and pain, groove and soul."

CAT.#NSR05092025

Jack Hardy was a songwriter’s songwriter, the most influen al definer of the Fast Folk era in New York City. He le an indelible imprint with his solo produc on, in addi on to his ac vity as a promoter of the folk scene and discoverer of talents un l his un mely passing in 2011 – aged 63, succumbing to lung cancer. A hugely important figure that wrote an impressive number of outstanding songs.

Lucinda Williams, who knows whereof she speaks when it comes to great songs, expressed all her love for Hardy when she said “Jack wrote some of the most beau ful songs I’ve ever heard.” And who can doubt Lucinda! “Southern Comfort” was recorded in Cosenza – deep South of Italy, in 1988 – a place that Jack would call “a slice of Paradise”, hence the tle. Superb accompaniment by Todd Scheaffer on guitar and Brady Rymer on bass (both on backing vocals too) plus Jack himself in a state of grace, make this performance one of the absolute best of his 40 years of touring. Such is the energy, the convic on and the almost trascendental ar s c gesture. One of the closest friends of Jack Hardy has labelled this performance as a compulsory listen. So be it!

DRAG CITY INCORPORATED

Sir Richard Bishop Our fave shaman of the six-string is back.

Waving his axe of choice, Sir Richard Bishop once again summons forth damnable truth and beauty on an all-new musical kamikaze run through histories both written and — as of yet — not commonly known. Since the dying days of the 20th century, the composer/ player of spirited polytheistic guitar recitals including Salvador Kali, Improvika, The Freak of Araby, Tangier Sessions, and most recently, Oneiric Formulary has worked feverishly to wrench and wrangle all the music that has and can possibly fall out of the guitar from east to west across this great, totally fucked world of ours.

With Hillbilly Ragas, Sir Rick stretches his callused hands across the waters to draw diverse musics back to his shack with the gladiatorial bloodthirst and balance of gravitas and jocosity we expect from him in every hot little moment of play. But there’s more to be said than these merely glib rantings as to what happens when traditional music heads for the hillbillies. We asked the man himself to chime in. Open the door, Richard!

“There were a few different approaches I utilized for this release. First and foremost, I wanted to go back to basics, to strip away any excesses and keep it as simple as possible: one man, one acoustic guitar, no overdubs, no effects, no electricity. Taking several cues from the sounds most often associated with the so-called American Primitive guitar style, I wanted to avoid any traditional approaches and instead try something more raw and aggressive, concentrating more on rhythm and movement as opposed to anything predictable or overly melodic, while also keeping my particular interpretive ideas about East Indian Raga in the mix.

I've always felt that the majority of what is considered to be American Primitive music, while certainly based on historical American musical traditions, never really had any sounds that I personally thought of as being primitive—it always seemed too orderly, too developed, and too safe. Way too safe. I found that playing with a sort of reckless abandon was the best way to remain outside of the usual musical language found in this genre of music, while still being able to establish itself within its framework, through determination and force if nothing else. It's a much more savage approach, which I believe is how it should have been all along, in order to at least give proper credence to the semantics of the form. During the recording process I was envisioning an undiscovered mountain man or "hillbilly" who had remained hidden in his own private backwoods; one who never learned, or even heard about, any traditional musical canon that he was expected to work within. So what we have here with Hillbilly Ragas are nine pieces for solo acoustic guitar, each one representing a different excursion into the dark woods— the untamed explorations of a musical loner, an outsider, maybe even an undesirable, embodying a peculiar folklore and turning it into sound— creating his own folk music in the process. He's still out there, fueled by moonshine, his supernatural surroundings, and a fuck-all attitude!”

— Richard Bishop, 2025

DRAG CITY INCORPORATED

Now, who remembers where they were in January 2015? Bill and Ryley don’t need to, they’ve got Land of Plenty to remind ‘em. That’s when they made the record, but a scant year before, can you believe it — they barely knew each other!

Once they met, though, they hit it off over mutual influences, like Albert King, Laura Nyro, Nick Drake, Bert Jansch, Ali Akbar Khan and Jimi Hendrix. Most of those folks are guitarists, just like Bill and Ryley. But Laura Nyro played piano and Ali Akbar Khan, sarod. Now maybe in your duo, one picker radiates that kind of diversity — but both? This was the first clue as to how heavy it might be if these two lads pooled their talents. They got to work. And play.

A year later, they were loaded into The Whistler every single Friday night on the calendar in January 2015. A residency, so called, but these resident players had designed not simply to entertain each night, but also to record the pool of material they’d woodshedded together in the recent months. Yeah!

Bill and Ryley dared to dream, man. A record, of all new originals, recorded live. Then when they went back to review the tapes, they were reliving the dream! They’d achieved that finest of things, rendering their all-new material in ultimate form, live and in person.

Listening today, we’d hardly believe it, if it weren’t something we’d just typed above! While the two of them are generally divided up by speakers, which is a groovy old-school way to have stereo sound that we LOVE, their shared headspace is a constant flow of ever-melding play, ranging across all sorts of genres and geographies from east to west and folding them immaculately into each other, whether in moments of transition or extended meditation.

Listening out for each other as they’re picking, these boys dance together and never land a foot wrong. They are ON. Whether head to head with six-strings or with Bill picking up his Requinto, or Ryley picking up his 12-string, these performances sound RICH. The live capture seems to enhance the sound in all sorts of unpredictable ways that activates with the chemistry in their playing, and ultimately serves to elevate Land of Plenty in its field! There’s very few acoustic guitar records that hit quite like this.

It was in August of 2015 that Land of Plenty was released, on Whistler Records.

Ten damn years ago. Damn it! Time goes by and things change… it’s just crazy. But if crazy means we get to push out our own copy of this gorgeous Bill MacKay & Ryley Walker duo recital, then call us crazy. Please. Cause that’s what we’re only too happy to do. Plus, let’s get ‘em back in the clubs and get another one of these together! Lightning’s been known to strike twice! Wow! Yeah.

DRAG CITY INCORPORATED

FRED ARMISEN Actor/comedian/musician/producer/ author/all-round good guy Fred Armisen has long been known as one of the most curious entertainers in the business, creating a wild variety of things for television, film, stage, records and other media. The latest proof of his inquiring imagination is here: 100 Sound Effects!

The goal was to create a number of specific and evocative sounds, but in addition to being a fun listen — pure and simple — 100 Sound Effects has great value as an industrial tool, with sound effects ready to be used in any number of entertainment projects. Some follow the basic blueprint, like doors shutting and glass breaking. Others are more abstract scenarios, but with a track like “Campfire Breakfast Conversation,” Fred notes, “They could be used in a movie or a show as a distant sound. Like: 'Listen, I think I hear campers down that way!' Those can also be played on outdoor speakers, if you want to make your backyard sound like a popular camping area.”

The majority of the album was done at recording studios, but occasionally ambient sounds were needed. Rather than rely on OTHER sound effects records, Fred went outside and got these himself on a portable digital recorder, pointing it at the sky or a car or whatever was needed. Other sounds required something extra as well — as he recalls, “Glass breaking seemed like an easy part of the album, but I forgot that I’d actually have to break and clean up glass. There’s this place in Van Nuys where you pay to go in and smash glass.

It’s all very safe, and you have to wear goggles and a jumpsuit. What a great idea for a business. I want to go back and curate a smash room.”

Additionally Fred wanted to recreate other specific moments not always covered on sound effects records, like “Music Venue Employee Kicking Everyone Out While Throwing Away Bottles” (actually, an incredibly common scene for a great many of us), while also executing versions of his personal favorite sound effects, which resulted in tracks like “Small Theater Booing.”

With additional help and inspiration from Bill Hader, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Amber Coffman, Tim Heidecker, Riki Lindhome and Alice Carbone Tench, Fred had a lot of fun making the album. And now, Fred Armisen’s 100 Sound Effects is a sound effects album like no other, a fantastic contemporary entry in a classic album category that can be used as a library or just for brain-stimulating deep listening.

Lastly, a personal note from Fred about the making of 100 Sound Effects: “I was thinking about haunted house sound effects albums and how fun those seemed to record. I wanted to do it at Steve Albini’s studio in Chicago, Electrical Audio, but since this wasn’t a collection of songs and I didn’t know how long it was going to take, I needed to do this where I live, in Los Angeles.

I told Steve what I was doing and asked if he knew of any engineers I could work with in L.A. He was very excited about the idea and asked Dave Grohl who might be available to help. Dave recommended Darrell Thorp and we started working at Studio 606, and then later Sunset Sound. Darrell was really inventive and a lot of fun to work with. Because Steve was so instrumental in making this happen, I dedicate the album to his memory. I miss him every day.”

HAUSU MOUNTAIN

HAUSMO DOUG & HAUSMO MAX HAUSUMOUNTAIN @gMAIL.COM

Portland based producer / synthesist Daryl Groetsch composes music under the moniker Pulse Emitter. Channeling his love and mastery of styles ranging from new age to Berlin school kosmische to drone to progressive electronic music to noise akin to junk floating through deep space, Groetsch crafts emotionally resonant synth pieces teeming with diverse melodic architectures and textural details. A mainstay of the American experimental underground for over two decades, he has released dozens of albums of his exploratory and ever-evolving output as Pulse Emitter which have appeared on labels including Aguirre Records, Constellation Tatsu, and NNA tapes, while self-releasing music under his given name and as his dungeon synth side project Endless Fog. Tide Pools, Groetsch’s new LP on Hausu Mountain, follows the relatively more languid ambient strains of his work found on Swirlings (2020) and Dusk (2022) with a dizzying excursion into kinetic rhythms and fastmorphing song structures. Groetsch himself describes the album as an attempt “to explore the deep emotions possible from jazz harmony, manifest the rhythmic complexity always chattering around in my head, and push my music somewhere I haven’t.”

Pulse Emitter’s goal to actively complicate the mood of Tide Pools beyond a single overarching atmosphere results in some of his most dynamic and emotive work to date, as we follow the album’s winding narrative through its diverse chapters and shifts in energy. The album teems with rapid-fire arpeggios and labyrinthine melodies as Groetsch lays out intricate webs of shifting chords and changes tempos between Artist: Pulse Emitter Cat #: HAUSMO150 passages, laying out a series of distinct environments that we watch Album: Tide Pools unfold from the shoreline.

This hybridized style of synthesizer synthesists like Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream, and Vangelis. composition allows Groetsch to sculpt divergent moods between (and within) his songs, from aqueous calm contemplation to burbling segments These aren’t uncommon reference points; they’ve been dominant modes in left-field electronic music since the late of turmoil to nebulous swathes of open-ended mystery. ’00s, popularized by artists like Emeralds and Oneohtrix Point Explaining the background behind Tide Pools, Groetsch says, “I spent time Never. But Pulse Emitter easily holds his own against his better-known peers. Since 2002, he has developed a style last year looking at tide pools on the San Juan islands in Washington State and was impressed with how they are like little worlds with so much that’s distinguished by its deeply expressive sensibility. …Few ambient composers can fit quite as much feeling into activity going on. I'm always inspired by expansive spaces, but for this such a small, off-handed curlicue of tone. Pulse Emitter feels album I went small. Think microscope imagery, electronics, bugs, plants, less like a noise tinkerer or an ambient musician and more like atoms. The tide pools also made me think of evolution and how life on a bona fide songwriter—just one working with some rather Earth formed in the oceans and eventually made its way onto land. This is what the second half of the album is about.” The microscopic nature of unconventional tools.” - Pitchfork (Philip Sherburne) the album comes across in its deluge of pointillist staccato notes, which Groetsch weaves together into accelerating cascades that wash out the stereo spread. At other moments, he dials down the density of his synth layers and lets isolated swells enter the mix one by one, airing out their own fine-grain voices — or locks everything into a closely-knit grid that bubbles along in tight sequences that approach the post-minimalist soundscapes of artists like David Borden or Steve Roach. As Groetsch sweeps us into his bustling ecosystems, we feel like individual cells traveling down capillaries as much as solitary plankton catching waves and coasting into whirlpools. Tide Pools pulls off the rare feat of providing its listeners with an imagistic foundation through its song titles and album art, but transcending those expressed themes with its simply thrilling multi-faceted arrangements and harmonic twists. We put on Tide Pools and we’re there with Pulse Emitter at the San Juan islands watching the creatures and anemones swirl in the surf, but we’re also particles floating through our internal mind’s eye as we explore the infinite space conjured by the grandeur of his work.

Ltd. Edition Translucent LP (first pressing) Download code Electronica / Ambient / Experimental Björk, Ana Roxanne, Lucrecia Dalt 20 LP 26th September 2025

Enchanting Japanese vocal artist Hatis Noit has announced Aura Reworks to be released 26th September. The new release reimagines her 2022 debut album, Aura, by legendary artists and collaborators, including the godfather of ambience Laraaji, hip hop duo Armand Hammer, composers and electronic experimentalists Jlin, Alex Somers, William Basinski, Emel, Matthew Herbert and Yu Su. Aura Reworks opens with a transcendental reinterpretation of the title track “Aura” by laughter meditation practitioner, mystic, and “ambient godfather” Laraaji. Hatis’ haunting vocals whir and groan in conversation with Laraaji’s bouncing hums, over open-tuned zither, kalimba, and timbrels. The soft organic percussion is replaced by thumping, shamanic kick drum on “Thor”, reworked by DJ and producer Matthew Herbert. The track is a playful, primal devotion, evoking a bonfire-lit ritual in the centre of a dancefloor. Matthew Herbert describes the track as an “auditory hallucination where more modern techniques merged with ancient-sounding voices.”.

Preservation’s rework of “Jomon” combines Hatis Noit’s powerful cries that evoke Japan’s prehistoric Jomon period with slow, considered vocals by cult New York rap duo Armand Hammer over a minimalist drum loop. The result is a bold call to arms, bridging thousands of years.

Alex Somers’ haunting reimagination of “Angelus Novus” splinters Hatis’ heavy vocals, transforming them into glitchy ASMR-effect blips that bounce in intensity before a brutal, heartbreaking passage, forcing the listener to stop and breathe. As Somers’ track fades, Hatis’ long, soft hums continue into the most contemplative track, “Inori”, reworked by avant-garde composer William Basinski, introduces a delicate piano to the track. “Inori” features a field recording of the ocean only one kilometre away from the nuclear power plant in Fukushima, destroyed by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami. Hatis Noit had been invited there for a memorial ceremony which marked the re-opening of the area for local people to return to their homes. The emotive and compassionate song is dedicated to the lives lost due to 2011’s tsunami, but equally to the memories people have of their hometown. Aura Reworks closes with “Sir Etok” a haunting track reworked by Emel, whose own voice enters into dialogue with Hatis’, mixing Arabic with her wordless sounds to create new dimensions.

Hatis Noit is a Japanese vocal performer hailing from distant Shiretoko, Hokkaido, who now resides in London. The name Hatis Noit is taken from Japanese folklore, meaning the stem of the lotus flower, as the flower represents the living, while its root represents the afterlife. Therefore, Hatis Noit connects the two worlds, able to move between here and the other side; the past, memory, and subconscious.

SCOTT HARDWARE OVERPASS RELEASE DATE: September 26, 2025 "Overpass," the third LP from Scott Hardware, is an avant-pop ode to the loaner—the late-night, headphones-on wanderer. The lyrics were slowly carved out over countless dusk-to-night walks through North Lisbon, soundtracked by musicals. As planes, trains, and highways wove their own visual symphony, they echoed the sweeping drama in my ears. The record is an attempt to translate the strange beauty I see and feel in the overlooked, in-between parts of cities.

Hardware conducts a painstaking character evaluation to better understand the world by looking inward. Suspended and exalting, the album bursts with cinematic flourishes that ring with a courageous form of earnestness.

Saxophonist, autist and producer Chip Wickham casts a formidable shadow across the worldwide jazz landscape. Originally from Brighton, but now dividing his time between the UK, Spain and the Middle-East, he has made a name for himself with a series of beautifully crafted solo albums that draw equally on the hard swinging spiritual jazz of Roland Kirk, Yusef Lateef and Sahih Shihab, alongside the music of British jazz legends such as Tubby Hayes and Harold McNair and the more contemporary sounds of Jazzanova, Kyoto Jazz Massive and Robert Glasper. His close working relationship with Matthew Halsall’s Gondwana Records has spanned close to two decades (since he played on Halsall’s 2008 debut ‘Sending My Love’) and has since released three standout releases on the label (the ‘Cloud 10’ LP, and the ‘Astral Travelling’ and ‘Love & Life’ EP’s). Once again returning to the heralded label, he now prepares to release his elegant fth studio album ‘The Eternal Now’. Further exploring his penchant for hard-hitting soulful, spiritual jazz and modal hard-bop, it denotes an exciting new chapter in his much- revered discography, once which sees his unbridled artist ourish into new and fruitful pastures.

A beautifully crafted record, ‘The Eternal Now’ is a heartfelt ode to submitting oneself to the practice of creating art, and the freedom that’s derived from letting go. Speaking on his journey to bringing it into the world, Chip explains “The Eternal Now is a creative place where time has no purpose. A place where the past and the future don’t exist. A place where an artist can create something that is timeless and relevant. Writing this album has been a deliberate journey of exploration and drive into the furthest reaches of creativity. An attempt to push myself artistically into new spaces using new colours and new energy”. On how he approached this record in comparison to his previous offerings, he divulges ‘I had to be playful and take risks. It has taken longer than any other album to make and it has been so worth it. I have been drifting and taking the road less travelled as well as not looking back. I’ve enjoyed being on the outside and the freedom it has brought me to create something new and fresh and relevant and timeless.’

Opening with the rolling hand percussion and oating notes of ‘Drifting’, the record quickly nds its footing, and dives head rst into a propulsive and splashy rhythm section. A tasteful drum ll ushers in the commencement of second single ‘Nara Black’, which features the sultry vocals of Peach, whose dreamlike lyrics intertwine with uplifting ute motifs and sweeping strings. The album’s title track is up next, channeling curious and alluring melodies through a swirling portal of sound. ‘Lost Souls’ is a restful and nourishing track, giving time for the spirit to breathe amidst rich woodwinds and soulful shakers. On ‘No Turning Back’ pensive atmospheres ease into torrents of melody, twisting like the banks of a great river. ‘The road less travelled’ sees wandering keys traverse vast undulating expanses of sound, before ‘Falling Deep’’s winding motifs beckon the listener to venture deeper within. Penultimate track ‘Ikigai’ (translating to ‘a reason for being’) harnesses a potent moment of beauty, as spectral ute dances amongst lush strings before the ourishes of ‘Outside’ bring the album to a poignant close.

A captivating and emotive listen, ‘The Eternal Now’ sees Chip at the top of his game, creating an other-worldly dreamscape with enchanting sound. He says ‘This album is about giving lost souls a home, falling deep in love with the spiritual joy of music and making something that will last like a Japanese tattoo made with Nara Black ink. Giving me balance and ow in life, my Ikigai.’

With well over a billion streams and a million records sold in the US alone, Phantogram is one of the most beloved artists of recent years. Barsuk Records is excited to reissue the band’s indie-classic debut album Eyelid Movies, in clear vinyl with yellow swirl, at a fan-friendly price point.

When Eyelid Movies was first released in 2010, Josh Carter and Sarah Barthel were a little-known duo from upstate New York. But, after a year of touring and the album’s breakout hit “When I’m Small,” the band became one of the marquee names in the electronic inspired indie-rock movement of the 2010’s. Success at alt radio followed as Phantogram grew through the decade to become major festival draws in their own right and with their Big Boi collaboration project Big Grams.

After a bit of downtime during the pandemic, the band returned in 2024 with a great new album, and has been playing bigger shows than ever in the wake of some unexpected TikTok traction and exposure to new audiences.

OVERVIEW As KT puts it, there’s never been a moment when she didn’t have rage. As the singer of Upchuck, the Georgia punk band whose music is as sharp as a scythe, KT has felt fierce energy inside her well before she had the band as an outlet through which to channel it. Upchuck’s Domino debut is I’m Nice Now recorded at Sonic Ranch Studio in Texas with producer Ty Segall. But don’t mistake newfound niceness for weakness. It’s self-preservation. “In this world of constant distractions and stressors it’s important to keep your mind, body, and spirit sane and sound enough to continue through this seemingly never-ending fight,” she says. With I’m Nice Now, Upchuck channels their feverishness into an album that, yes, is filled with rage.

But in addition to being a continuation of their musical exorcism, the album delivers a sharp critique of the powers that be, lamenting why they still have to be those in power.

James Morrison Fight Another Day RELEASE DATE: 3rd October 2025 Tracklist: 1.Fight Another Day 2. Save a Place For Me 3.The Man Who Can't Be Loved 4. Cry Your Tears On Me 5. Little Wings 6. Ten Thousand Men 7. Closest Thing To Love 8. Something That I Can't Forget 9. Slow Heart Attack 10. Silver Lining 11.Made of Man 12. New Day 13. Fill My Glass

James Morrison’s new album Fight Another Day is born of difficult times and heavy emotions but one that, ultimately, leans into the light and joy and hope. Written after a period of reflection and therapy, the songs deal with his own struggles, childhood, and personal battles, with Morrison saying, “Every day being a bit of a battle. Trying to eke the light out after what felt like darkness for ages.” From the defiant title track to the soul-baring Something I Can’t Forget and the feelgood New Day, the album captures a wide emotional spectrum. “I'm really proud of the album in terms of the creative, sonic elements and how I dealt with truthful stuff,” he says, “but also… it's an album of songs that hopefully make you feel better and make you nod your head and stamp your feet and singalong.”

The fourth YOWIE album.

Unmatched for their a singular, befuddling style of hyper-composed rock, YOWIE’s instantly recognizable approach baffles and excites listeners. Yet, despite being unabashedly unnatural and counter intuitive at every turn, YOWIE grooves.

YOWIE

For “Taking Umbrage”, the ambition of the material demanded YOWIE assemble an international lineup with impeccable credentials.

The band now features Daniel Kennedy (also of the band Cleric, which has its own progressive metal oeuvre, and has worked with the likes of John Zorn and Trey Spruance), as well as Jack Tickner (Basil's Kite, Wollongong, and solo microtonal work), in addition to founding member, Defenestrator (YOWIE, YOWIE and YOWIE).

About YOWIE. For more than a quarter century, SKiN GRAFT Records’ YOWIE have been blowing minds with their utterly unique, baffling compositions and notoriously ecstatic must-be-seen-to-be-believed live performances.

Their first album, 2004’s “Cryptooology” was an instant cult classic, has become a permanent resident of countless “Best Math Rock Albums of All-Time” lists, and has cemented itself as the ultimate “dare” for ambitious musicians to learn.

Since then, YOWIE released two more full-length albums, a double split 7-inch, teamed up with The Jesus Lizard’s David Yow, and earlier this year, released a split with France’s equally unclassifiable Pili Coït.

Also from SKiN GRAFT Records:

“Taking Umbrage” is both the group's longest album and the one that took the longest to create, and one listen will show listeners why. There is no fast-tracking YOWIE’s meticulous approach to composition.

“Taking Umbrage” raises the bar even higher, defying the boundaries of rock to forge a new path full of twists and turns that will challenge and excite aficionados of math rock, prog rock, RIO, extreme metal... and the outer limits and extremities of genres yet to be identified.

Ltd. Edition translucent 10” 4pp insert, download code, 45 RPM Modern composition, contemporary classical Erik Satie, Chopin, Max Richter, Liszt 15 10” 03 October 2025

Originally released in 2009, Found Songs is Ólafur Arnalds’ second EP, following his debut album Eulogy for Evolution. Re-pressed on translucent vinyl for the first time in an edition of 500, Found Songs displays the composer’s prodigious early talent across its seven pieces. Includes 4pp full colour insert and download code.

Original sales text from 2009: In April 2009, Iceland’s neo-classical export Ólafur Arnalds created the 7-song series Found Songs – recording a song a day for 7 days and instantly making each track available via Twitter. With artwork contributions from fans via Flickr, this modern release awakens memories of a tradition that seemed lost in the digital age we live in.

Born in 1987, Ólafur hails from the suburban Icelandic town, Mosfellsbær, just a few kilometres outside of Reykjavík. He has immersed himself completely in a world of delicate symphonic compositions generating near weightless orchestral pieces.

Arnalds explores the crossover from classical to pop by mixing chamber strings and piano with discreet electronics which makes him a perfect fit for cinematic pop label Erased Tapes. His motivations are clear: The classical scene is kind of closed to people who haven't been studying music all their lives. I would like to bring my classical influence to the people who don't usually listen to this kind of music…open people's minds.

This young artist steadily gained recognition worldwide since his 2007 debut Eulogy for Evolution. The 2008 follow-up EP Variations of Static earned Ólafur acclaim from both the contemporary and classical field – transcending a traditional divide by uniting their ideals. After filling London’s world-famous Barbican Hall, fellow Icelanders Sigur Rós invited Ólafur to open their most recent European shows, playing to an audience of over 5,000 per night.

With the next full-length release due this winter, Ólafur conceived Found Songs as a way to collate several lost and found musical sketches and ideas in a 'very challenging, but fun' series. The experiment offers its listeners an intimate insight into Ólafur Arnalds’ creative world. The songs will be different from what's on my albums; they will be short, mostly just made up from piano. Something to keep me going…

AFTERNOON BIKE RIDE RUNNING WITH SCISSORS Running with Scissors is a cathartic heart ache and, ultimately, a therapeutic exploration of what it means to be alive—to love, to grieve, to regret, and to grow. It pulses with rawness and authenticity, sincerity and honesty, offering both solace and strength to anyone navigating their own emotional journey.

Running with Scissors is the third full-length album from Canadian trio Afternoon Bike Ride. Residing in Montreal, the group is made up of Lia (vocals, guitar, programming), David (vocals, guitar, drums, programming), and Éloi (vocals, keys, drums, programming). Since their formation in 2019, the band has released numerous projects where indie rock blends with acoustic pop, ambient field recordings, and lofi folk.

With each track on the new album, the three artists explore the rollercoaster ride of life’s most profound lessons—falling in and out of love, embracing grief, and navigating the complex spectrum of human emotion. The album feels like a series of journal entries, capturing moments of vulnerability, self-discovery, and personal growth. A lot has changed since their formation in 2019 but their hearts are still in the right place. Lead singer and songwriter Lia reflects on the bittersweet realization that life is an ongoing journey and we’ll never have all the answers, but we can still find meaning through love, meaningful connection, and the lessons FOF263LP that shape us. If life is one big lesson, then according to Lia, "I A1 20 SEASONS guess these songs are some classes I've taken."

Mekons - Horror (white vinyl)

**LIMITED WHITE VINYL RE-PRESS OF THE NEW ALBUM!** Legendary postmodern, post punk, post human, past caring collective Mekons return with a brand-new album for 2025. Their first release on Fire Records, ‘Horror’ a collection of songs written in late 2022 but providing a horribly prescient reflection of the world in its current miasma and how we got here.

‘Horror’ looks at history and the legacies of British imperialism with mashed up lyrics set against a typically eclectic sound that amalgamates everything from dub, country, noise, rock & roll, electronica, punk, music hall, polka and you can even take your partner for a nice waltz on ‘Sad And Sad And Sad’. The roots of their global sound reflect their nomadic journey through time and space from Leeds to California in the West and Siberia in the East and is woven into the fabric and intricacies of their song creation…

Artist: Mekons Title: Horror (white vinyl) Label: Fire Records

Sounding like The Chills and R.E.M circa the I.R.S Records years, ‘Mudcrawlers’ sees just about the whole band joining Jon Langford on vocals speaking of Irish famine and refugees journeying to Wales. ‘War Economy’ shivers in the cold of such Boroughs spiked one-liners: “Clinical coercion will not achieve dominance!” Sounding like its straight off a Jenny Holzer neon sign (she of Abuse Of Power Comes As No Surprise), it’s held together by a disgruntled swaggering riff that underpins an explosion of disquiet.

Meanwhile, Rico takes the lead on the maliciously luscious ‘Fallen Leaves’ an appalled and appalling Hammer Horror take on climate breakdown reminiscent of Rolling Thunder Dylan, that recalls The Pogues at their most introspective, its Celtic twilightism augmented by Susie Honeyman’s keening violin as the dying sun sinks down and the river Styx flows on in the pitch black night.

Almost 50 years in the making, these Mekons continue to astound, their sound, sentiment and method of delivery blended to perfection by bass player and studio wizard, Dave Trumfio. The Mekons are Jon Langford, Sally Timms, Tom Greenhalgh, Dave Trumfio, Susie Honeyman, Rico Bell, Steve Goulding, and Lu Edmonds.
