NM shop listening copy of arguably the compilation of 2022 from Charles Bals (Beach Freaks/ Club Meduse) & Henry Jones (Smiling C). Pretty much as new!

"Welcome to the America Dream Reserve, home to husband & wife duos, pub legends, one-man-bands, preachers’ sons, and country-lounge entertainers..."


America Dream Reserve is a home for kindred souls. An hour-long journey into the world of lo-fi drumcomputer folk, disco-pop-lounge, haunting ballads, obscure vanity pressings, and synthesized string ensembles. A collaborative compilation between Charles Bals, creator of the inimitable Club Meduse, and Smiling C.


This is a premium edition of ADR housed in a die-cut leather structure gatefold. It comes with eight loose double-sided swappable photo cards with artist photos on both sides, and an insert with write-up about the project. Limited run.


Compiled by: Charles Bals & Henry Jones.

Fire In My Heart

Isle Of Jura's first release gets a needed repress for 2022! Originally released in 1984 'Fire In My Heart' fuses elements of disco, funk and new wave to create a mystical masterpiece. 'Won't Be Your Fool' has more obvious 80's leanings and the 12" closes with the Instrumental Dub of 'Fire In My Heart', stripping back the vocals and letting the bassline work its magic. Big DJ Harvey record!

Tom Waits

Swordfishtrombones

Classic 1983 LP mixing blues, jazz & rock. 180g reissue.

Gigi Masin

Plays Venezia

Back in September 2016, Stefano Gentile published a photographic book entitled IL SILENZIO DEI TUOI PASSI (The Silence of Your Steps), which collected a series of 56 pictures dedicated to Venice at night. The book was a journey through the most remote "calli" and "campi" (streets, alleys and squares) in search of the true 'breath' of the city, far away from the hordes of tourists who 'attack' it every day during daylight hours.Gigi Masin composed a 30 minutes epic ambient track to the images included in the book. The track was published on CD and released bounded with the book itself in a limited edition of 480 copies only, and has been unavailable for years. In 2021, Gigi Masin returned to that great piece of music and now offers with this release a re-edited version of that soundtrack, accompanied by two unreleased tracks composed and recorded in the same period.Beauty.
