In record stores worldwide on December 5th, the IA11 Edition of To Cy and Lee: Instrumentals Vol. 1 comes on classic black 140-gram vinyl LP inside a heavyweight reverse-board jacket, with a 12-page 11x11" insert booklet (including previously unpublished photos and new liner notes by DePlume himself), IARC 2025 obi strip and printed poly-lined inner sleeve.

Recordings from the Åland Islands, the 2022 duo debut by synthesist Jeremiah Chiu and violist Marta Sofia Honer, is a truly unique series of pieces that marry acoustic and electronic sounds with field recordings, all captured on a trip to the titular Baltic archipelago.

Angel Bat Dawid’s International Anthem debut The Oracle introduced her multifaceted voice to the world. The response to its modest, initial cassette/digital release in January of 2019 was immediate, and immense.

As 2025 rolls on, we continue to celebrate our eleventh year (under the #IA11 chrysanthemum banner) by revisiting some of the most celebrated entries in our decade of releases.

Jeff Parker’s 2016 album The New Breed was a turning point for both Parker and International Anthem, changing the trajectory of his solo career as well as drawing an abundance of attention to our fresh imprint despite our then very limited catalog.

As 2025 rolls on, we continue to celebrate our eleventh year (under the #IA11 chrysanthemum banner) by revisiting some of the most celebrated entries in our decade of releases.

Ben LaMar Gay’s de facto debut album, Downtown Castles Can Never Block The Sun, was our attempt to introduce the legendary Chicago composer / improviser / renaissance man to the rest of the world with a compilation of tracks from 7 albums he made over 7 years (though he hadn’t yet made the effort to actually release).

Makaya McCraven’s International Anthem debut In The Moment is the album that properly introduced the then-burgeoning drummer/producer to the world. IA11 Edition is Out Now on all digital music platforms. Vinyl LP out March 28th, 2025

Rob Mazurek’s Alternate Moon Cycles was our first release. The incredibly spare single-note-centered cornet, bass and organ chant was recorded to tape at pint-sized Chicago bar Curio as part of a performance series that predates any notion of our label’s existence. Documenting this performance – highly unique even within the depths of Mazurek’s vast catalog – stirred those notions, and soon talks began of releasing the recording on a fresh imprint.

Over the course of 2025 we will be celebrating our eleventh year (under the IA11 chrysanthemum banner) by revisiting some of the most celebrated entries in our decade of releases.

Over the next year, we'll be rolling out a series of releases, reissues, miscellaneous media and events under the IA11 banner.
