Japanese experimental group goat returns with this modern dance score for choreographer Cindy Van Acker, led by Kojiro Hino and released on France's Latency. Surgical minimal percussion fused with Autechre's nervous system, Miles Davis's discipline, and No Wave abrasion — post-production by Rashad Becker guarantees the spatial clarity.

Shudan Sokai — その前夜 - Live At 八王子 Alone
Free Jazz 2026

Shudan Sokai

その前夜 - Live At 八王子 Alone

A rare document of the Tokyo free jazz scene, capturing the mid-1970s migration of free music to suburban venues. The Alone club in Hachioji held only twenty people — a spiritual loft — and this live recording by Shudan Sokai stands as a monument to that era, made before Alone closed in September 1977.

Argentine Bossa Nova / Jazz 1975

Agustín Pereyra Lucena

Ese Día Va A Llegar

The definitive Argentine Bossa album from Buenos Aires guitarist Agustín Pereyra Lucena, now reissued by Far Out Recordings. Warm guitar and light rhythms meet Jobim and João Donato covers; the seven-minute 'Guayabas' — Rhodes piano and flute — is pure South American sensuality.

Swapmeet — Mount Zero
Lo-Fi Indie / Alternative 2026

Swapmeet

Mount Zero

Australian newcomers Swapmeet recall the inexplicable elegance of 90s lo-fi noise acts like 18th Dye. They reportedly stacked dozens or hundreds of tracks for each song, then stripped them down to the clearest possible core — a reductive process that turns first loves, first heartbreaks, and first disasters into something like a documentary about youth.

Iceage

For Love of Grace & the Hereafter

Iceage return to Silence Studio in Sweden — the same room that birthed 'Plowing Into the Field of Love' — for a record Elias Rønnenfelt describes as 'direct, urgent, and raw.' In an era of over-refinement, they've gone back to find the most immediate rock impulse. It sounds exactly like the Iceage you needed.

Avishai Cohen

Eternal Child

Avishai Cohen's new trio album, titled by the late Chick Corea in tribute to their deep mentor-student bond. The cover shows Avishai at age four; the music pairs him with 22-year-old prodigy Itay Simhovich on piano and legendary drummer Jeff Ballard — a return to jazz's melodic and rhythmic essentials.
