We are happy to announce that The Residents' live album 'The Residents are faceless!' is out today! Recorded on their 2023 tour of Europe in Hamburg, Germany, this show was the last one to feature collaborator Nolan Cook on guitar. Songs performed were focused on the legendary Duck Stab album, with some band classics thrown in for good measure and some new songs. More details in the catalogue. Still very fresh is the new album by Fred Frith's group Cosa Brava - a perfect combination with the Residents double CD. It was released together with the second album by Disturbio, a duo consisting of Jerome Noetinger and Angelica Castello. Coming up in October will be a long overdue re-issue of 'Career of the silly Thing' by Australian post-punk legends Scattered Order and 'Tchak!', a previously unreleased album by French avantgarde pioneers Un Drame Musical Instantane. Happy browsing.

We are back from our holidays and a few days into the office, we have two great releases for you: the first one is Z Sides, an all-new album by Cosa Brava, Fred Frith's song project, following the Skeleton Crew in the 1980s. The second is a collaborative album by Disturbio, a duo consisting of Angelica Castello and Jerome Noetinger. This is freely improvised music sounding close to musique concrete. October will bring the new live album by The Residents, recorded on their last European tour in 2023, plus a long overdue re-issue of a 'lost' album by Australian group Scattered Order and a never-published album by French avantgarde pioneers Un Drame Musical Instantane. Also coming soon will be the vinyl re-issue of Renaldo M.'s solo album They Blessed The Body Breadcrumbed, in two different vinyl editions. If you are in Vienna, this Friday sees a triple show at Westbahnstudios: first Asmus Tietchens playing one of his rare live concerts, then Michael Fischer on feedback sax, and then Cut Hands, William Bennett's group after the dissolution of Whitehouse.
