Important Records Reversible Platter Pad / Slipmat
$4.00 each or $7.00 for 2

These are now reversible with the Ouchi design on the flipside!

These platter pads are a great idea if you're interested in protecting your vinyl. They provide a soft, protective surface much nicer than the standard rubber pads on most players. These are also high quality slipmats for dj's.

FM3
BUDDHA MACHINE
$22.99

A unique 'soundbox' from China, which is causing senstation worldwide. A totally dazzling item which causes jaw-dropping delight everywhere - Alan Bishop bought twenty-four of these on sight, Brian Eno bought eight (how's that for apocalyptical math?). FM3 are a duo of Christiaan Virant and Chinese keyboardist and computer musician Zhang Jian - based in Beijing. The Buddha Machine is a hardware loop player, built kind of like a little AM radio (available in 6 different colors, shipped randomly), but without all the nonsense - total genius from out of nowhere.
Comes with 2 x AA batteries. "The Buddha Machine is a small soundbox made in China which comes with an integrated speaker, a volume control, mini jack-out and a switch to choose between nine different loops which are stored on a small chip and can be directly played by this mini soundsystem."

Deep In The Ocean....
VHF
$18.99
.... Sunk The Lamp Of Light is the debut release from the trio of Stephen O'Malley (Sunn0))))), Daniel O'Sullivan (Guapo), and Vincent de Roguin (Shora). Taking its title from The Iliad, the music is deep, cosmic, and equally epic, completely unlike anything you'd expect from three such heavyweights. More in the tradition of Nurse With Wound's Spiral Insana or Klaus Schulze's Cyborg than any contemporary trend, the tracks float along in a masterful collage of activity, where careful scene changes highlight O'Sullivan's classic but artfully placed Rhodes bombs, de Roguin's organ, and O'Malley's guitar.
Very limited edition vinyl in screen printed jackets.

Little White Bike
My Own Little Label
$9.99
Recently Beequeen completed their latest CD 'Sanddancing', which is now being produced by Erik Drost and which will be released by Important Records somewhere towards the end of this year. 'White Bike' was supposed to be on there, but both Freek and me thought the somewhat joyeus and naive mood of the song would not entirely fit the CD, and we decided to release it here. Actually there are three tracks on it, the original Freek sung demo, an excerpt from the recording session (the moment when we think of the balloon) and the final version, sung by Eva.

Glyph
Digitalis
$12.99
With one piece for steel string acoustic guitar, another for lap steel, and the final (and shortest) on nylon string acoustic, there is diversity amongst the cogent thread that holds it all together. Carter's improvisations speak volumes without saying a word, and Glyph is one of his finest achievements to date. It is an ode to the last year of his life in Austin, Texas and all that it contained

(Coil) Grief Featuring Jhonn Balance
Divine Frequency
$17.99
a memorial and a tribute to the art, life, and passing of a truly gifted artist and silver tongued poet, Divine Frequency Records would like to present 'Grief,' a limited 7" picture disc featuring the voice of Jhonn Balance. This release presents a solemn pair of hard to find and out of print tracks featuring Jhonn Balance as guest vocalist. Besides his work as Coil, Balance was an avid collaborator and his voice was an infrequent but always noteworthy addition to the recordings of other artists. It was this spirit of experimentation that was the inspiration for the two tracks on this release.

Tony Conrad
Outside The Dream Syndicate
Table Of The Elements
$39.99
"This 30th anniversary reissue features a second disk of originally unreleased music from the sessions and restores Outside the Dream Syndicate to its rightful place in history: as the vital link between early minimalism and the rock avant-garde and a gripping testament to the power and beauty of the Drone. Two CDs in deluxe, limited-edition packaging with a 32-page book and poster. Includes previously unreleased material from the original 1972 sessions and features new liner notes by Rolling Stone senior editor David Fricke. Digitally remastered. This 1972 recording between the legendary La Monte Young protege and the pioneering German outfit Faust features just-intonation drones and a perfectly syncopated Krautrock rhythm section, creating one of the ultimate dream-tone soundtracks. Conrad has remixed the material to bring it closer to his original intention, and in the process of digging up the tapes, discovered that there was an additional 20 minutes of material from the session, which has been tacked on for this release."

Psychform
 


10" EP version. This release is limited to 400 copies on black vinyl. "Fe-mail is a electronics/noise duo consisting of Maja Ratkje and Hild Sofie Tafjord, both known from the anarchistic improv quartet SPUNK. Fe-mail's music is electronic music based on improvisation with live sampling as well as recordings of their own generated sounds and field recordings. Their music is characterised by the use of old fashioned, analogue electronic and acoustic sound sources such as pan pipes, harmonica, and other underestimated instruments, side by side with computers and samplers. The new release on PsychForm Records is a rolling thunder of mayhem that combines all of these elements with the spazmaticly beautiful vocal stylings of Maja Ratkje."
