Foundation
Tip! "Foundation" contains remastered and re-worked versions of the Amon first CD "Amon" (1996) and of the ultra-rare "Mer" CDr (2000 - originally printed in less than 200 copies).

You'll find no deeper nor darker ambient anywhere else."I think I can see them now: people in the immediate future, reviewing this double set just after it's out and writing down dark ambient as if it was the most proper…

Skulls On The Plains Of Turkey
*100 copies limited edition.* On the latest album, Robin Storey once again invites us to a musical journey closer to the exotic world of the Orient, sparkling with many delicately woven miniatures, based on fragments of melodies, heard as if in the deep sleep phase, when sounds and images reaching us from a distance gently fill the space, giving the impression of an integral part of it. Out of nine tracks filled with tribal rhythms, vocals and a wide palette of colors, an extremely coherent, sli…

Loka:Immanence
*100 copies limited edition* For his debut release on Vaknar, Yuto Ohashi dives deep into the digital ether by contrasting a pervasive atmosphere of mechanical blips and appliance clatter with dreamlike, angelic drones, all coalesced by what seems like constant transmissions of nebulous AI dialogue – forming the premise of a natural world submerged in a deep, virtual slumber.
"One of three Japanese ambient / experimental releases simultaneously issued by the Vaagner label last week, Yuto Ohashi’…

Electrons
*200 copies limited edition.* As the theory of the atom, quantum mechanics is perhaps the most successful theory in the history of science. It enables physicists, chemists, and technicians to calculate and predict the outcome of a vast number of experiments and to create new and advanced technology based on the insight into the behaviour of atomic objects. But it is also a theory that challenges our imagination. It seems to violate some fundamental principles of classical physics, principles tha…
naming the trees
*50 copies limited edition. In processof stocking. 2023 stock* "Naming The Trees (zero192) by J. Surak is a concise art statement, just ten minutes a side on the limited cassette. Apparently produced by a combination of methods: analog synths, patches, treated and prepared instruments, and a humidifier – maybe a field recording of one of these handy domestic beasts, unless he “trained” its limited mind to assist in the performance in some way. Furthermore, it’s got something to do with a dance s…
The Last Piece of Graphite
*300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Ideas are suggested and quickly abandoned. In their wake chance becomes intention. Clues that reveal themselves upon repeated listenings. This is not background music or audio as utility. Repeated plays will unfold their rewards and spaces yet unexplored. For this is the last piece of graphite. Recorded in the studio, in the woods, and on river banks using analog electronics, prepared objects, bass, double bass, guitar, and tapes, in Hamburg/W…
