Kabasse – About sitting on fences LP / CD
release date: 13.02.2026
Somewhere between jazz, progressive rock and cinematic soundscapes, Kabasse unfolds a world of intricate arrangements, bold sonic textures and heartfelt improvisation. The brainchild of Munich-
based musician Sigmund Perner (also member of Carpet), this sextet blends composed structure with free exploration, layering lush harmonies, unexpected rhythms and a rich palette of wind, mallet and keyboard instruments.
What began as decades of musical ideas—gathered quietly, never written down—found its shape through a group of close-knit musicians from Munich and Augsburg, including Perner’s own son on drums. Together, they recorded in a live studio session, embracing risk and spontaneity. The result: a deeply personal debut album that feels both mature and raw, contemplative and gripping.
The vinyl is limited to 300 copies, first 100 on colored vinyl.
CD comes in digi-sleeve.
Glen – It was a bright cold day in April LP/CD
Release date: 20.02.2026
Fourth album from Glen and the first on Kapitän Platte.
The boundary pushing quartet from Berlin, Germany known for its intense blend of art rock, post-rock and free improvisation,
extend their classic line up of two guitars, (Wilhelm Stegmeier, Eleni Ampelakiotou), bass (Roland Feinaeugle) and drums
(Achim Faerber) with these guest performances and a various range of instruments from clavinet to synthesizers, creating their immersive, dense, slow-burning sound structures and
mesmerizing translucent soundscapes defined by repetition,tension and constant transformation, that shift between
explosive energy, structural precision and free-flowing improvisation.
Vinyl is limited to 300 copies, first 100 on colored vinyl.
CD comes in digi-sleeve and has two bonus tracks that will also appear on the download code of the vinyl.
And of course we have added the available back-catalog from Glen to our shop.
We Stood Like Kings – Pinocchio LP/CD
Release date: 10.04.2026
The new We Stood Like Kings album is a bit of a new musically turn in the history of the band.
For the first time they have written the music just the way they wanted and the animated movie of Pinocchio was created to fit the music and not the other way around.
Also you should get ready for some heavier stuff than before, a bit more post-metal into the typical piano-driven post-rock.
Vinyl is limited to 500 copies, first 100 on colored vinyl.
CD comes in digi-sleeve.
