Spacing Out is an instrumental masterpiece only ever issued in Bermuda at the turn of 1970. A mix of the band's out-there original compositions and extravagant covers of The Meters, The Temptations, Aretha Franklin and The Isley Brothers, it established this band as one of the greatest instrumental bands of any genre, and helped kickstart the retro-soul/funk scenes that birthed the likes of Daptone and Big Crown Records. It's certainly a lodestar for Now-Again Records. This reissue was done with the license and participation of the entire Invaders band, with their story told in great detail in an oversized booklet penned by Jefferson "Chairman" Mao, complete with rare photos of this rarely seen ensemble.

"I'm like 'Sweetie Pie' by Stone Alliance / Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science." Beastie Boys, "Root Down," 1994
For over three decades, the Stone Alliance's debut album on Gene Perla's PM Records has been a record collector's commodity. An LP that evolved from the Rare Groove 1990s into a hallowed place in America's deep jazz canon. This definitive reissue of the 1976 release was lacquered in an all-analog transfer by Bernie Grundman, who removed the Dolby noise reduction and freed the space in the record's grooves. Grundman himself said that this is the best that this record has ever sounded. Contains an oversized 8 page booklet that details bass player and PM Records founder Gene Perla's arc in music, the creation and lineage of his PM Records imprint and the story of the Stone Alliance band."

Both Scriabin and Langgaard believed that through their music they could pave the way for a spiritual revolution. The piano offered a perfect and very intimate medium for their highly personal harmonic and expressive vocabularies. Scriabin drew on daemonic associations in his Piano Sonata No. 9 to liberate the old tonal system, whereas Langgaard explored his youthful fascination with Catholicism in music of fanaticism and ecstasy. Langgaard’s The Flame Chambers and Scriabin’s Vers la flamme are feverish musical twins that exemplify both composers’ explosive intensity.
