La Sangre Iluminada
'La Sangre Iluminada' (Enlightened Blood) is Murcof's OST to a 2009 film directed by Ivan Duenas and inspired by Jose Carlos Becerra's poems. The film tells the story of six characters who mutate into new bodies. Deep down, all six keep traces of their past lives, of the former bodies they miss; deep-seated nostalgia has a hold on them. Murcof's vaporous soundscapes track a tale hovering between tragedy and science fiction; an aesthetic clearly reflected in his individual fusion of neo-classical…
Voyage de la planète
Marc Romboy deploys his first new material in eight years with the classically computed electronic wizardry of Voyage de la planete. Filtering a vision of abstract synthesis with a well-trained ear for melody, Voyage de la planete's ten tracks brilliantly cross the borders of downtempo-tronica' with a fizzing melodic structure that is sure to place it at the front of the listening habits of everyone from deep house heads to the abstract jazz enthusiasts.
Canticles Of Bliss
*Limited edition of 200 copies. 2022 stock.* "Initial recordings for 'Canticles Of Bliss' started in October of 2019 at my home studio located just south of Indianapolis. At the start of 2020 I continued recording songs off and on up until late April where I then took a break and then picked up the guitar again in July. By the beginning of August of that year I had everything wrapped up. An additional guitar was added to a track, as well as a mutated brass recording was featured on another. I us…
Walser
**260 copies** Walser, the new album by Robert Piotrowicz, is a reiteration of the artist’s composition for the namesake film by Zbigniew Libera where a fictitious Concheli tribe enacts its ritual gestures through music and performance. Rather than following a traditional soundtrack format where music is written after the film is cut to illustrate the cinematic form, Piotrowicz treats the film music as a point of departure to create an autonomous sound work altogether. While its aesthetic narrat…
Stara Szkoła Ze Złota
Lincoln Sea is Robert Piotrowicz's second release in 2013 after the acclaimed When Snakeboy Is Dying. 'Snakeboy' opened windows with it's sophisticated weaving of guitar, piano and vibraphone, along with Piotrowicz's more recognisable modular synth work. Praised from the likes of Brian Olenwick (Just Outside), Massimo Ricci (Touching Extremes) 'Snakeboy' saw Piotrowicz take a confident leap into new realms of sound. With Lincoln Sea, the potential of Piotrowicz' vision is greatly expanded whilst…
Le Macerie Di Babilonia
* Limited edition of 300 copies * sferic mark 5 years of influential operations with a special deep dive into ancient/modern Mediteranean culture by Giovanni Napolano, who’s usually known for crankier industro-dancehall output as NPLGNN (Reel Torque, Youth) and programming the wonderful MBE label - a proper RIYL Jay Glass Dubs, Christos Chondropoulos, Alan Lomax, DJ Screw, Coda Lunga.Taking his native Naples, Italy as a locus of Med culture, Napolano plunges the port city’s palimpsest of energie…
Between No Things
MFM048 sees the release of a special collaboration between two unique voices within the ambient landscape, Suso Sáiz & Suzanne Kraft, with their collective debut album ‘Between No Things’. Whilst having first connected at a Gaussian Curve release show in Amsterdam back in 2017, in which both musicians also performed, the two really got to know each other during a three day recording session that followed immediately after; “We would have good chats and laugh setting up and in between long takes …
Snow Crash
Voodoo noise and poetry : what is sound, what is poetry? What is this reality and how are we perceiving it? This LP brings together two extreme and loud vocal performers digging and channeling invisible realities through electronically expanded proto languages. No occult bullshit, this is an experimental non-dual approach to reality: clashes and crashes into extatic trances. Joachim Montessuis develops an experimental contextual practice mainly around voice, drone, noise and resonance since the …
Under the Sun
Second album by Greece's premiere Afro-jazz band. An Odyssey of sound through West African percussion, jazz, Greek melodies and a tinge of funk. Greece is maybe not the first country that comes to mind when you think of Afrojazz. Afrodyssey Orchestra unexpectedly hit the scene some time ago after we released In the Land of Aou Tila, their debut album — while that first album was going to the hands of the few lucky ones who managed to discover the band back then, Afrodyssey Orchestra were already…
Onder/Stroom
Zonder Stroom, meaning 'sans electricity', was a short-lived program curated by Extrapool with performances that were completely without electricity (no amplification, no lights, no fridge) and one bleak and damp winter's afternoon we drank coffee and decided to use all the electricity there was, recording any keyboards, synthesizers and electronics they could lay their hands on. Then they tried to make sense of that day. This album features mixes and remixes of one joyful and intensely creative…
Célia
Célia Regina Cruz recorded four self-titled albums for Continental between 1971 and 1977, Amor in 1982 plus several more before she sadly passed away late in 2017.

2
In February 2017 Moving Furniture Records released "1", the first LP by Radboud Mens and Matthijs Kouw. The album consists of two long drone tracks that make you forget music is a time-based art. Music that immerses you in a warm bath of frequencies that are evolving slowly around you, revealing you all sides and details of a sonic sculpture.With this second release, which is simply titled "2", Mens and Kouw continue their exploration of long-form drone. By using precisely tuned analogue synthes…
En De Stilstaande Tijd
* Edition of 300. Pressed on clear translucent vinyl in spot-varnish artwork * With 'En de stilstaande tijd' (roughly translated: 'And the frozen time' / 'And the stillness of time') Orphax (Sietse van Erve) returns with a new work that further explores the themes of time and perception of the listener. The new album follows in line with Orphax works like 'Time Waves', '2.20' and 'Live Circles', with added emotional depth. In this sense 'En de stilstaande tijd' is a continuation of 'Piano Music'…
Paintings
* 2020 Stock. Edition of 300. * Paintings, after Sketches (Magnetic Purely) and Drawings (Invisible City Recordings), represents the last work in a trilogy marking the re-emergence of Philipp Bückle as a musician. After burying the Teamforest project at the end of the noughties Philipp didn't much feel like creating music for some years, at least not on his own. Instead he concentrated on a more visual approach to expression. But in 2014, during a hot summer in Copenhagen, a birth and long wande…
Loess
* Edition of 300. * Collaboration is key to the practices of both musicians. Both Rimbaud and De Waard exhibit long histories of collaborating with others from very different fields. They both understand that the ability to exchange and share ideas is crucial, and how these collaborations allow both parties to work as both negatives and positives of each other, recognising spaces within the work fields and ideas. It teaches the respect of space and the relevance of context and extension of one t…
Erosion Distillée
** 1969 previously unreleased album, this set must have been one of the weirdest albums recorded in France at the time** And that's saying a lot, given some of the avant jazz, experimental, and psych sets that were coming out of that scene! Jacques Dudon may be best known for his Ghislain pseudonym on other records – where he was much more of a straight blues guitarist – but here, he's very tripped out – and leads a collective of musicians through music that feels much more like a "happening" th…
Focus Intensity Power
For his inaugural LP for Moving Furniture Records the Amsterdam based Swedish sound artist BJ Nilsen turns his intense aural focus and compelling narrative power away from his well-known and much lauded predilection for field recordings of organic nature or the urban built environment. The five pieces presented on this record capture Nilsen during a short residency he did in the Fall of 2017 at Willem Twee Electronic Music Studio in Den Bosch, The Netherlands – five documents these are of improv…
The Carpenter
The work of Claudio Rocchetti is a deep plunge into thick sound, investigating its innermost workings. Using a variety of devices such as turntables, audio cassettes, samplers, radios, and microphones, often incorporating other objects and traditional instruments, Berlin-based Rocchetti builds compelling structures that employ sound as sheer matter, mass, and impact. The tarry, mesmerizing hues that characterize his “music objects” are grounded in layers of sound detritus.From techno rhythms to …
Temple
LP version. Includes insert with liners notes; Includes download card. Continuing with their reissue campaign of the Toby Robinson's Pyramid label catalog, Mental Experience now present Temple's self-titled release. Probably the most "rock" sounding of all the Pyramid titles, Temple were an ad-hoc outfit born out of several late-night sessions at Dierks Studios (where Toby was working at that time), involving local friends of Toby and other musicians from adjoining studios, among them Zeus …
Desert Haze
Experimental trio Giraffe crystalize time on Desert Haze, their new LP on Marionette. Giraffe is the musical project of Sascha Demand (guitar), Jürgen Hall (keys), and Charly Schöppner (percussion). Sascha Demand is a composer that comes from a contemporary and improvised musical background, collaborating with the likes of Ensemble Integrales and Vinko Globokar.
