DUCHAMP, MARCEL	Duchamp Off the Record: The Janis Family Interviews	Book	MUSEUM OF MODERN ART	9781633451766
$22.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 3/31/2026 Paperback. 150 pages. "One of the towering figures of 20th-century art holds forth on his controversial life and career in a previously unpublished set of interviews. Over six sessions between September 1951 and November 1952, Marcel Duchamp sat down with collectors and gallerists Harriet and Sidney Janis for a wide-ranging conversation about his inspirations and working processes, and his many opinions on the workings of the modern art world and its histories. The Janises, owners of the influential Sidney Janis Gallery, were ardent supporters of modern art and close friends with Duchamp. Harriet, an accomplished author, led the interviews with an eye toward writing a monograph on Duchamp, though this was never realized. Now, this previously unknown chronicle is available for the first time through the efforts of Carroll Janis, Sidney and Harriet's son. Under Harriet's expert guidance, Duchamp holds forth on his artistic philosophies, his career, his friends, his rivals and his lifelong obsession with chess. He provides an inside look at some of his most famous works, from his controversial 'Readymades' to 'The Large Glass.' Contextualized with illustrations, annotations and an introduction by Carroll Janis, this publication is a rich treasure trove of information on one of the 20th century's most controversial, groundbreaking and larger-than-life artists. Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968) dismantled the boundaries of what constitutes a work of art. Although he began his career as a painter, Duchamp was also a curator, conservator, art advisor, professional chess player, writer, inventor and celebrity. Following the completion of his conceptual masterpiece, 'The Large Glass' (1915-23), he abandoned traditional artmaking altogether. Today he is best known for his 'Readymades' -- ordinary objects such as a urinal or bicycle wheel, elevated to works of art -- which challenged traditional aesthetics and redefined authorship."

PERRY, LEE 'SCRATCH'	Black Ark	Book	PATRICK FREY EDITION	9783907236666
$65.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 2/3/2026 Delayed until 2026... "A massive photographic archive of Lee 'Scratch' Perry's legendary recording studio. A 600-page tribute to one of the most famous locales in music history, Black Ark is a detailed inventory of photographs and writings from the Black Ark Studios in Kingston, Jamaica, where producer Lee 'Scratch' Perry created music from 1973 onward. The eclectic and constantly evolving decoration of the studio provides an enduring visual counterpart to Perry's expansive musical catalog. From mural paintings to shape-shifting assemblages of records, instruments, found objects, posters and newspaper clippings, the artworks layer upon one another as they intertwine with the studio building itself. Perry created his own dense and diverse world in which to work: memorialized in this volume before the Black Ark disappears for good. The photographic documentation of the studio in the spring of 2021 was supplemented by efforts to secure and preserve Perry's works, objects and recordings as part of a joint project with the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC. Black Ark reflects the rhythm and layering effects of collage both in its content and the materials used to craft the book. Perry was involved in the development of this publication until his death in August 2021. The book closes with memorial essays from Ishion Hutchinson, David Katz, Kodwo Eshun, and John Corbett. Lee 'Scratch' Perry (1936-2021) was a musician and producer best known for pioneering the dub genre in the 1970s. He worked with well-known Jamaican artists such as Bob Marley and the Wailers, the Heptones, the Congos, and Max Romeo. In 2003 he won a Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album."

KRIWET, FERDINAND	Ferdinand Kriwet: Stars	Book	SPECTOR BOOKS	9783959053204
$60.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 2/3/2026 Delayed further... until early 2026.."Pioneering media artist and concrete poet Ferdinand Kriwet's 1971 cult artist's book in a facsimile edition. A monumental, three-volume encyclopedia of alphabetically organized images, Ferdinand Kriwet: Stars was first published by Kiepenheuer & Witsch in 1971. In the 1960s, German author and media artist Ferdinand Kriwet (1942-2018), inspired by concrete poetry and its interest in the visual quality of linguistic signs, began to approach the literary medium of the book in a new way. Imagining new ways of reading that resisted linearity, Kriwet experimented with alternatives, encouraging a rapid back-and-forth between the pages of the book and the texts and images on them. In Stars, he treats images like words and arranges them in alphabetical order in an epic encyclopedia format. For years, Stars has only been available, at considerable cost, in antiquarian book catalogs. This new facsimile edition of Ferdinand Kriwet: Stars brings Kriwet's pioneering vision and his seminal book back into print." 416 pages. 2.5 pounds. 5.50(w) x 8.75(h).

WALKER JR., BARRY	Paleo Sol	LP	THRILL JOCKEY	THRILL 642LP
$25.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/30/2026 LP version. "Barry Walker Jr. is a pedal steel player and guitarist whose roots in Americana, country and folk traditions influence his melding of minimalism, ambient and spiritual music. The Portland-based instrumentalist is also a member of the Rose City Band, known for his gorgeous phrasing and deft interplay with guitarist Ripley Johnson. On Paleo Sol, Walker demonstrates his singular voice as a pedal steel player and composer. Evoking the American western ranges and basins, the album embodies a longer, geologic view of time that patiently marvels at the ripples of change throughout lifetimes and ages. Walker is joined on Paleo Sol by drummer Rob Smith (Rhytion, Pigeons) and bassist and Mouth Painter bandmate Jason Willmon (Fruited Planes). Paleo Sol's tranquil landscapes glide, built on warm finger-picked guitar figures and pedal steel swells coupled with deft percussion and bass touches by Smith and Willmon respectively. The trio plays with exceptional fluidity either completing each other's' phrasing or working together to build momentum. Smith notes: 'The drums are not keeping time as much as evidencing its elasticity, mixing into the other instruments, changing phase states.' Every gesture on the album is rich with intention, moving with grace and playing with timbre and time. The pieces of Paleo Sol were composed during a monumental shift in Walker's own life, around the birth of his first child. Walker's compositions are guided by a serenity and gentleness that makes for a dreamy soundtrack. His acumen as a composer and instrumentalist are on full display on Paleo Sol. The album is a gorgeous reflection of Walker's own internal world as well as the detailed environment he's spent so much of his life exploring as a field geologist. "In human reckoning, the essence of the solid earth is mostly still. Those engaged in deep time inquiry recognize the vigor of Earth's behavior, and quiescence is a small part of the action." --Barry Walker "This is drift music, sustained by dusky drones and quiet fingerstyle. Everything's as gentle as a sunkissed stream. The pathways that once felt free and clear now sport an uneasy shade, yet the guitar picks on." --NPR Music

"The Soft Pink Truth (Drew Daniel also of Matmos) grafts chamber music and electronic music into a beguiling new hybrid pop album that evokes mid-20th century film soundtracks with nods to minimalism. Can Such Delightful Times Go On Forever? features artwork by Robert Beatty (Tame Impala, The Weeknd).

GEOLOGIST	Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?	2LP	DRAG CITY	DC 970LP
$33.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/30/2026 "Geologist is the nom-de-théâtre of Brian Weitz, whose pursuits have been an active part of the music underground since he was 15, playing and working in alignment with an organic ensemble of friends that would one day choose to call what they were doing Animal Collective. Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights? migrates from that tradition, containing a number of surprise affects of its own. It is the first step into a rippling songscape in which his hurdy gurdy gives and takes multiple forms, an epic electro-acoustic textile of many colors cut from the life and times of Brian Weitz. It's an inspired ride through his phases and stages, with traditional sounds, ritual moods, avant, prog-jazz, kraut, post-punk and minimalist vibes merging in electronic infinity. Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?, lit like a constellation, threads impulses and happenings across space, cherry picking from his psychic archive: the vibe of an energizing drive from Tucson into the desert, taken repeatedly in the early aughts; an incendiary live witness one night in the clubs in 1998; the unending thrill of the mind-meld in eternal recurrence. Geologist uses the drone and chanter strings, whose possibilities blew open the walls for him back then, to highlight these moments in the kaleidoscopic flow of memory. As he set the controls to account for a multitude of directions on this long-promised journey, Brian took inspiration from late-dawning solo eras of players like Bill Orcutt and Susan Alcorn. Then, hurdy gurdy in hand, Geologist realized structures, improvisations and rhythm tracks at home before seeking other energies at Asheville's Drop of Sun Studio. At the session, Adam McDaniel helped a lot -- he drafted drummers Emma Garau, Alianna Kalaba (FACS, Cat Power) and Ryan Oslance (The Dead Tongues, Indigo De Souza), Sham's Shane McCord on clarinets and Mikey Powers on cello. Through vagaries of fate, Brian got Adam Lion to play vibraphone in a few places, Dave 'Avey Tare' Portner for a couple bass tracks, and his son, Merrick Weitz, on acoustic guitar for 'Government Job.' Izzy Barber painted the front cover and gatefold, capturing that Tucson magic, and Bob Nastanovich lettered the back cover, supplying additional pieces of time and space to the puzzle. Through the mystery and science of record making, Geologist refracts beatifically through his back pages throughout Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?"

HEKT, LANDE	Lucky Now	CD	TAPETE RECORDS	TR 603CD
$16.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/30/2026 Lande Hekt has quietly become one of the UK's best underground songwriters. On her 2021 debut full-length Going To Hell and 2022's House Without a View, she explored her queer identity, sobriety, and childhood trauma through the lens of heartfelt, conversational indie-pop, which led to spots opening for the likes of Alvvays, Throwing Muses, and The Beths. Her new album Lucky Now, written and recorded with producer Matthew Simms (Wire, It Hugs Back), reflects the most mature and confident version of Lande Hekt yet. Hekt's musical touchstones -- The Wedding Present, The Sundays, The Replacements -- remain the same, but at the same time she's delved deeper into other influences. Lucky Now is indebted to 1980s twee-pop and jangle-pop like The Pastels, Tallulah Gosh and The Bats, plus more modern iterations of the sound such as Autocamper and Jeanines, in its ecstatic, soaring melodies and gorgeous, tactile guitars. The sound is fitting for Hekt's new lyrical outlook, where, though despair and anxiety rear their heads, she digs deep to find the gratitude. "I wanted to try and push for something slightly more positive, which I'm trying to do more of generally -- just to not fall apart," Hekt says. In keeping with that, opening track "Kitchen ii" is a love song about sharing simple, domestic moments with a partner, while "Rabbits" is a song about hope inspired by one summer solstice spent on Glastonbury Tor. Meanwhile, the slower, acoustic-based "Middle of the Night" is about "reeling from a realization of being properly happy for the first time in my life," Hekt says. Hekt also returns to more politically-based songwriting, after largely avoiding politics in both life and music during a disillusioned period, on "Circular" and "A Million Broken Hearts". During the process of making the album, Hekt also moved from Bristol back to her hometown of Exeter. She wrote Lucky Now's closing track, "Coming Home", about the experience of returning there after a long tour; smelling the familiar smells, spotting the familiar faces. In a lot of ways, Lucky Now is about return -- return to joy, return to places and parts of the self once left behind. Who you once were can seem unreachable, but sometimes you can build a bridge.

MORTAZAVI, MOHAMMAD REZA	Nexus	LP	LATENCY RECORDINGS	LTNC 034LP
$28.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/30/2026 Latency presents Nexus, the new solo album by virtuoso Iranian percussionist Mohammad Reza Mortazavi. Covert art by Jordan Belson. Mohammad Reza Mortazavi (b. 1979, Iran) is known for his groundbreaking work with the tombak and daf, traditional Persian drums that he has radically redefined through new playing techniques and extended vocabulary. Mortazavi began playing the tombak at the age of six. By nine, he had already outpaced his teacher and won Iran's national tombak competition -- a distinction he would earn six more times. By his early twenties, he was widely regarded as one of the foremost players of the instrument. Since then, his music has continued to evolve, embracing new forms and vocabularies beyond tradition. Following his acclaimed 2019 release Ritme Jaavdanegi, Nexus marks Mortazavi's return to Latency with a full-length album recorded entirely in Berlin. The record introduces new elements into his sound: voice, effects, and treatments never before used in his discography. These experiments serve not as departures but as further extensions of his ongoing exploration of rhythm, resonance, and transformation. Nexus refers to a point of connection or intersection, a meeting place where different energies, times, and spaces converge and transform. The cover artwork features an image by American visual artist and filmmaker Jordan Belson (1926 -- 2011). Belson's work, often referred to as "cosmic cinema" or "visual music", explores themes of consciousness, transcendence, and the infinite nature of the universe. The pairing with Mortazavi's percussive, trance-induced musical language feels immediate: two approaches to rhythm and energy, balance and harmony, coming together at a single point. Mortazavi's hypnotic live performances have been featured at renowned venues including the Berlin Philharmonie, Paris Pantheon and the Sydney Opera House. In recent years, Mortazavi's rhythmic explorations have resonated deeply with the experimental electronic music scene, leading to collaborations with artists such as Burnt Friedman and Mark Fell.

ADLER, LOU	Ladies And Gentlemen The Fabulous Stains (2-Disc) [4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray]	2xBLU-RAY	FUN CITY EDITIONS	FCE 036UHD
$42.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/30/2026 "The Stains, a fledgling punk band comprised of three teenage girls, rise, fall, and rise again in this 'rock 'n roll parody' directed by music industry veteran Lou Adler (Up in Smoke). With nothing keeping them in their dying factory hometown, rebellious Corinne Burns (Diane Lane, Streets of Fire), her sister Tracy (Marin Kanter, The Loveless) and their cousin Jessica (Laura Dern, Wild at Heart) form the Stains and tour with fading glam rockers the Metal Corpses and working-class English punks the Looters. Through a combination of media manipulation and Corinne's brazen on-stage persona, the Stains become an unlikely overnight sensation. But the girls quickly learn that the business of music is insatiable, fans are fickle and fame is fleeting. Nancy Dowd's (Coming Home) trenchant script takes place in the same, fictional Rust Belt town that her Slap Shot is set in. Through its story occurs within an accelerated, 'only in the movies' timeframe, Ladies and Gentlemen the Fabulous Stains is full of truths about the music business thanks to the contributions of many industry insiders on both sides of the camera. Barely released in 1982 and unavailable on home video for decades, the film has become a bona fide cult classic through late night cable airings and the 'riot grrrl' movement it helped inspire. Newly-restored from its original 35mm camera negative, Ladies and Gentlemen the Fabulous Stains comes to 4K UHD for the first time anywhere in the world." Double-sided wrap with legacy and newly-designed artwork by Scott Saslow and Marc Edward Heuck. Archival audio commentary by director Lou Adler.

$27.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/30/2026 closer is Sepalot's soulful mosaic of beats and unity, where hip-hop grit meets human connection. The album blends sample-based production with classic songwriting -- like a sonic mosaic of warmth and groove.

His beats are mosaics -- meticulously pieced together fragments of sound forming an intricate whole. Beyond the studio, he's explored these influences as DJ, producer, and live performer, leading the Sepalot Quartet across Europe's jazz festivals, and more recently with his experimental band Tikhet alongside Angela Aux.

As with their breakthrough album Mount Matsu (GB 147CD, 2024), their devotion to getting the dance floor moving remains front and center. That impulse, already strong, has intensified -- Yatta! lifting it to an ecstatic next level. The result? An album that reveals a band whose groove just keeps getting deeper. Certainly, the quartet from Maastricht in the south of the Netherlands has built a reputation for balancing an eclectic range of influences and using them to forge something that is affectionately retro and, at the same time, fresh and forward-facing. From the beginning, YĪN YĪN have been devoted to exploring global sounds with an emphasis on getting the dance floor moving -- an impulse that reaches its peak on Yatta! One major influence is the sound of Italo Disco -- the spacey brand of disco music that arose in Italy in the late 1970s. "It has something of a mystique," says Berkers. "All the producers were using new recording techniques and effects, but there are not many pictures or videos of how they were creating things in the studio. You have to use your own fantasy and create your own story about how that music is created." Across the album, YĪN YĪN specialize in creating the soundtracks to dream journeys, opportunities for the listener to visit places that exist in realms of the imagination. If there's a general direction of travel in YĪN YĪN's expeditions, it's towards the east, with Asian influences coming through loud and clear. It's a fascination that has suffused YĪN YĪN's sound since, in the early days, they stumbled upon a couple of compilation albums of psychedelic '60s and '70s guitar music from Southeast Asia. Adopting Eastern tunings has imparted an unusual feel to YĪN YĪN's music and challenged them as songwriters, and Yatta! is the sound of four musicians finding their own globe-trotting groove, and having the time of their lives exploring it.

WEEKS, GREG	If The Sun Dies	LP	LANGUAGE OF STONE	LOS 012LP
$25.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/23/2026 "Dormancy comes in many forms. For some it is a break from the world of stress and the constant demands one finds oneself under. For others it is a much-needed respite from the grind, a time to disengage from the wheel and collect oneself for the next challenge. If The Sun Dies, Greg Weeks' seventh release, is a signal that his respite is over. Pursuing creativity once again, Weeks finds himself in a period of explosive productivity. He has written an enormous number of songs over the past few years, enough to fuel five separate projects, including If The Sun Dies. In addition, he has rebuilt his Hexham Head Studio (still all analog, still twenty-four tracks) and resuscitated his label Language Of Stone (sans imprint status). If The Sun Dies, which takes its title from an Oriana Fallaci novel, is every bit a Weeks album: cryptic-poetic lyrics over melancholic melodies strummed on acoustic guitar and ornamented with the analog instruments he has forever treasured (Hammond Organ, Mellotron, Mini-Moog, and effects-laden guitars). However, the album feels like a departure, a maturation in both content and approach despite its many echoes from the past. The album's running thread is melancholia, but lyrically the tunes couldn't be more disparate. 'If The Sun Dies' is an anthem that posits the end of things being the only means by which two people can find time to truly connect. 'The Heathen Heart' speaks to one's desire for salvation yet underscores a different, more frightening reality. The more narrative 'A Narrow Star' follows a young woman's journey into entropy, while 'Tail Lights Burn The Hillside Red' explores the depression that likely drove her there. Shifting gears, 'Dream You Awake' investigates the more archetypal territory of the star-crossed lovers, while 'Driven' attempts, unsuccessfully, to put the genie back into the bottle. 'Ridley Street,' a song about a stalker, is juxtaposed to 'Rainless,' a song that believes in the transcendent power of love. While 'A Million Ways To Die' and 'Gone Darkside' tread quite literal territory, the album's closer, 'What It Takes' questions identity in the face of pharmaceuticals. Taken in total, the album amounts to a complete return to form."

PARAJEKT	Parajekt	LP	PALAZZO RECORDINGS	PALAZZO 013LP
$33.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/23/2026 The music of the duo Parajekt is created on electronic instruments. Drum machines, samplers, modular synths, and effects devices all culminate in a tape recorder, whose limitations invite them to work with great musical and sonic precision. The resulting pieces serve as the first layer and as a sound score, which is then overwritten, mixed, and refined with dub techniques in a subsequent step. Elements inspired by electronic beat music, musique concrete, and noise merge in a musical performance that brings the studio action onto the stage and places it front and center.

LOS PLAYBOYS/LOS ROGER'S	Play Boy/Descarga Rogers	7"	VAMPISOUL	VAMPI 45117EP
$15.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/23/2026 Iquitos, one of Peru's most remote cities and the capital of its Amazon region, was the epicenter of the psychedelic cumbia movement. Groups like Los Playboys belong to that mysterious category of almost-forgotten bands. On Ranil's label, Producciones Llerena, they released a superb single -- now reissued here with their track "Play Boy," an instrumental bursting with all the essential ingredients of psychedelic cumbia. Vampisoul complete this single with another great band from Iquitos: Los Roger's. Their magnificent "Descarga Rogers," never before available on 45, is the opening track of their only album and dives deep into Cuban-influenced sounds, where the guitar shares the spotlight with powerful percussion and vocals.

LA CUCARACHA BRASS	La Cucaracha Brass	LP	VAMPISOUL	VAMPI 340LP
$28.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/23/2026 During the sixties, especially the second half, Bobby Marín was an up-and-coming young Nuyorican who was responsible, along with his brother Richard, for producing, writing, or coordinating recordings by Louie Ramírez, Machito, The Nitty Gritty, Willie Rosario, Joe Cuba, Johnny Zamot, Kako, and Azuquita, Charlie Palmieri, and others. Many of these artists were caught up in the ongoing boogaloo movement. So, it was not a surprise when Ismael Maisonave -- an unsung hero of Latin music and owner of Mary Lou Records -- approached Bobby with the idea of reissuing a Raphie Martínez album as a budget LP under a different name, resulting in La Cucaracha Brass. The songs selected for this compilation represent a point in time when the world was getting ready for an incipient monster called salsa, which would take over for years to come. The LP includes descargas, guaguancós, guarachas, as well as the declining boogaloo. It is a collection of recordings by different artists and was named Cucaracha Brass because at that time the group Tijuana Brass was very popular. Most of the songs were taken (six out of eight, presumably) from the Raphie Martínez and the National Combo LP Cool Man (Mary Lou 1002). However, there are noticeable differences between the two albums. "Latin Power" is an explosive instrumental guaracha and descarga, where the trumpet, congas, and timbales deliver powerful solos. "Takin' Over" -- an instrumental boogaloo -- appears as "We Are Taking Over" on Raphie Martínez's album (with a faster tempo and featuring a background voice). "Hey Mama," a boogaloo sung by Bobby Marín, is titled "Do It All Over" on Martínez's recording, featuring a different singer, different lyrics, and a different tempo. As well as the edited versions of tracks taken from Martínez's album, this album comprises songs taken from other Mary Lou Records releases such as Quique Rosa y La Sabrosa Orchestra (Mary Lou 1020).

VA	Cumbia Cumbia Cumbia!!! Vol.4	2LP	VAMPISOUL	VAMPI 341LP
$37.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/23/2026 The historical origins of cumbia are nebulous and imprecise. The mythology surrounding it suggests an ancient past when Amerindian, African and European musical sounds were mixed together. After digging deep into the overwhelming archives of Discos Fuentes, Codiscos and Discos MAG in previous volumes, this fourth instalment in the series Cumbia Cumbia Cumbia!!! comprises 28 Colombian cumbia bangers for the dance floor from the deep vaults of Discos Tropical, all of them originally released between 1960 and 1984. Discos Tropical was a Barranquilla-based label founded in the mid-1940s by Luis Emilio Fortou Pereira, a visionary who helped define Colombian dancing habits and tastes from the previous century. Until the late '50s, most cumbias were orchestral-based. However, even though formats and styles diversified from the following decade onward, these highly popular big bands spectacularly defined the sound of Discos Tropical and livened up the most cosmopolitan dances in the major coastal cities. After the mid-'60s, the big bands gradually fell into decline, but the popular demand for tropical music did not. Facing this situation, the major record companies created smaller-format groups with one particular feature: they mixed accordion music with brass bands. This new volume of Cumbia Cumbia Cumbia!!! combines well-known classics and rarities that are difficult to find in their original formats. An invitation to enjoy and be amazed, above and beyond ethnographic and academic concerns. Featuring Carlos Haayen Y Su Combo, Bovea Y Sus Vallenatos, Álvaro Cárdenas Y Su Conjunto, Carlos Román Y Sus Estrellas, Luis Enrique Martínez Y Su Conjunto, Pello Torres Y Sus Diablos Del Ritmo, Banda 20 De Julio De Repelón, Andrés Landero Y Su Conjunto, Cumbia Mochila, Combo Maravilla, A.M. Camacho Y Cano, Eliceo García Y El Conjunto Palma Africana, Wasamaye African Rock, Conjunto Maravilla De Palo Alto, Manuel Villanueva Y Su Orquesta, Manuel Caraballo Y Su Conjunto, Pedro Salcedo Y Su Combo, Los Tiburones, Cumbia Bolivariana, Los Curramberos De Guayabal, Juan Polo Valencia, Lucho Better Y Su Orquesta, Florentino Montero Y Su Conjunto, Joe Montes Y Su Orquesta, Tere García Con Ramón Ropaín Y El Trío Fantasía, Los Indios Selectos Con Alberto Pacheco Y Su Acordeón, Rufo Garrido Y Su Orquesta, and Mincho Anaya Y Su Combo Moderno.

VA	Golpes	14x7" BOX	MUNSTER RECORDS	MR 7394EP
$200.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/23/2026 Golpes brings together some of the holy grails of Spanish post-punk in 7" format -- records that helped define the sound of the early '80s. This box set is a collection of rarities, but above all, a celebration of monumental songs that have become timeless anthems, transcending darkwave, la movida, and new wave alike. Just look at the lineup: "Autosuficiencia," "El Hospital," "Nacidos para dominar," "Cómo perdimos Berlín," "Quiero ser santa," "Los Celos se apoderan de mí," and, of course, "Golpes." You'll find names like Alaska y los Pegamoides and Gabinete Caligari, who went on to achieve massive popularity and commercial success, alongside legendary artists such as Desechables and Parálisis Permanente -- arguably Spain's most iconic post-punk band -- and cult favorites beloved by the most dedicated fans, like Agrimensor K and El Último Sueño. This box set comprises impossible-to-find singles, genre classics, and rarities like the 12"s by Seres Vacíos or the mythical flexi by Alaska y los Pegamoides, now appearing for the first time ever on 7" vinyl. In total, 14 seven-inch records, each with its original artwork and inserts. Also included is a 24-page booklet featuring flyers, posters, ads, quotes, and fanzine clippings from the era, plus a text by Borja Prieto, and the ultra-rare Alaska y los Pegamoides poster that originally came with the first pressing of their single "Horror en el hipermercado." Golpes is a deep dive into the darker side of Spain's vibrant 1980s music scene. An absolute must-have.

YIN YIN	Yatta!	CD	GLITTERBEAT	GB 181CD
$16.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/23/2026 On their fourth album Yatta!, the celebrated Dutch quartet YĪN YĪN extends, bends, and ignites a joyous mix of disco, funk, surf, psychedelia, and Southeast Asian motifs. As Yatta! proves, the band's sonic footprint is an ever-evolving kaleidoscope of sounds, textures and beats. As with their breakthrough album Mount Matsu (GB 147CD, 2024), their devotion to getting the dance floor moving remains front and center. That impulse, already strong, has intensified -- Yatta! lifting it to an ecstatic next level. The result? An album that reveals a band whose groove just keeps getting deeper. Certainly, the quartet from Maastricht in the south of the Netherlands has built a reputation for balancing an eclectic range of influences and using them to forge something that is affectionately retro and, at the same time, fresh and forward-facing. From the beginning, YĪN YĪN have been devoted to exploring global sounds with an emphasis on getting the dance floor moving -- an impulse that reaches its peak on Yatta! One major influence is the sound of Italo Disco -- the spacey brand of disco music that arose in Italy in the late 1970s. "It has something of a mystique," says Berkers. "All the producers were using new recording techniques and effects, but there are not many pictures or videos of how they were creating things in the studio. You have to use your own fantasy and create your own story about how that music is created." Across the album, YĪN YĪN specialize in creating the soundtracks to dream journeys, opportunities for the listener to visit places that exist in realms of the imagination. If there's a general direction of travel in YĪN YĪN's expeditions, it's towards the east, with Asian influences coming through loud and clear. It's a fascination that has suffused YĪN YĪN's sound since, in the early days, they stumbled upon a couple of compilation albums of psychedelic '60s and '70s guitar music from Southeast Asia. Adopting Eastern tunings has imparted an unusual feel to YĪN YĪN's music and challenged them as songwriters, and Yatta! is the sound of four musicians finding their own globe-trotting groove, and having the time of their lives exploring it.
