Particularly Dangerous Situation
*150 copies lmiited edition* Ian Wellman's “Particularly Dangerous Situation”, his first release for Elevator Bath and first vinyl LP, is a meditative, at times harrowing, interpretive document of the catastrophic California wildfires of 2025. Wellman's stunningly descriptive field recordings plus his signature tape loop textures and sampled drones combine for a dramatic ten-part narrative that is both frightening and sorrowful in its depiction of calamitous events. "On January 7, 2025 Southern …
String Figures
String Figures, Felicity Mangan’s debut solo LP on Elevator Bath, blends tactile drones, electronic tones, and wetland field recordings into inventive, emotionally rich compositions.

Stasis
*2023 stock. 100 copies limited edition* A deposition of cold electronics and harsh frequencies to testify to the perpetual stagnation of reality. Nothing ever changes except the means through which this successful illusion is maintained. "Stasis" is an exploration, in seven chapters, of the diagrams of the power mechanisms caging us in an invisible prison: civilization. From the anointing ritual of ecstatic pain engrafting the mental germ, to its own epiphany, and to the final revelation: the w…
Love letters via Echelon
Love letters via Echelon by Nerthus is a spectral descent into coded romanticism and surveillance. Electronic textures, cryptic samples, and cinematic atmospheres evoke the tension between intimacy and secrecy—a sonic correspondence unfolding in digital shadow and memory.

Second Sight
Whenever the term “Free Jazz” gets mentioned, the same questions more or less present themselves: “Is this easy to listen to?” “Is there structure, or is this just a few friends playing over each other?” “Is this another Coleman/Taylor/Dolphy homage?” Yes; yes; maybe—who cares? Free Jazz is (in my definite opinion) the last bastion of music (and maybe even art as a whole) where true innovation is not only still possible but also extremely well-executed—if done right. Enter “Second Sight” by Oslo…
Union
*2024 stock* "Muriel Grossmann's music had an immediate impact on me from the moment I first heard it. It was music with dedication, speaking from the heart. I felt it speaks of past and present, with joy and happiness. Ten seconds into listening and I was hooked. I was all over the web trying to find a vinyl copy, but strangely enough there wasn't any available. Without a second thought we decided to get in touch with Muriel and ask how that is possible. And behold, before long, we were listeni…

Silence is a Sharpened Blade / Ashes / The End Site / A Pearl in the Jaw / Flautas Ahogadas para Jacobo Grinberg
*75 copies limited edition*
DNZ122 Drew Wesely – Silence is a Sharpened Blade
Silence is a Sharpened Blade speaks in the language of materiality — a stripped bare mantra of nylon and wood conjures unspoken and veiled interiors, channeling the intimacy of a single guitar alone in a room. Silence is a mirror, a shadow, an absence. It speaks when words fail in the poetry of negative numbers. Where do we go when the lights burn out? What is beauty in hell? What can pierce a heart of stone? Silence i…
Live

From the fiery opening sequence kicking off with "Euro Koma", on…
A Tutti gli Uragani che ci Passarono Accanto
An introspective journey into darkness through an oblique and fascinating song form. This, and much more, in Enten Hitti's beautiful new album. There is something particularly transcendental about 'A Tutti gli Uragani che ci Passarono Accanto', the new Enten Hitti album released on 25 May 2020 by Lizard and ADN Records. It is a work that welcomes the song form, but dished out with the classic researched and experimental approach that has distinguished the band's work in recent years.
An album of…
