Seven Memories / Human Meat
Seven Memories / Human Meat brings Himukalt and Subklinik together in a collaboration that feels less like a split and more like a shared autopsy table. Across its two halves, the record traces a tight arc from psychic excavation to corporeal desecration, turning the body and memory into raw material for a language of diseased electronics, guttural atmospheres and suffocating space. It is an album that treats industrial and death‑ambient not as fixed styles but as solvents, slowly stripping away…
Rules
Tip! 2025 Stock. In the early 1960s, while Robert Moog was still perfecting his voltage-controlled synthesizers in upstate New York, a young Finnish physicist named Erkki Kurenniemi was building an entirely different future in a basement studio at the University of Helsinki. Working with digital control technology years before the rest of the world caught on, Kurenniemi created instruments that seemed to arrive from a parallel timeline - synthesizers played with electronic pens, machines that tr…
Barbare Electrique
The trip of Steel Mammoth has truly been long and strange. On this album they've finally come to an end, sort of. This is true post-post-apocalyptic electro-acoustic noise, culled from metal percussion, gongs and electronics by Jussi Lehtisalo (Circle, Pharaoh Overlord), Ilkka Vekka (Gatha, Haare etc.) and Ville Pirinen (Seremonia, VPCS). Imagine a lost INA-GRM session, dug up from radioactive black sand in the year 3019. Circuit funeral march, ritual music for androids. A joint release between …

Ei, Wir Tun Dir Nichts Zuleide!
6-track EP from the German experimental dark folk duo Brannten Schnüre. A shimmering, pastoral collage of acoustic instrumentation, electronics, field recordings and haunting, austere vocals, the songs on ‘Ei, Wir Tun Dir Nicths Zuleide!’ comes together to something quite astonishing and otherwordly. Luboš Fišer’s soundtrack to Valerie And Her Week Of Wonders comes to mind, as does the essence of Astrid Lindgren’s summer scenes with fragments of the ambience of something akin to Nico’s Desertsho…
