We Were the Hum of Dreams
**200 copies, hand-numbered** The Humble Bee and Offthesky come back with a second opus after their first one on Iikki in 2019. Including Rin Howell for the voice and Cody Yantis on sax like previously. This second album is a perfect continuity with their first collaboration, a delicate and detailed piece with a dusty out of time atmosphere.Originally from Kentucky, since 15 years, Offthesky is the prolific musician Jason Corder who currently resides in Denver, Colorado in the United States. His…

Future Predictions
**Limited edition, custom-made clamshell box, 4xCDs in pocket sleeves, and 16-page booklet** Will Long’s Celer project returns with an expansive 4CD set, a beautiful rendering of field recordings and foley sounds in gaseous suspension, recorded to high quality recycled reel-to-reel tape and providing us with some much needed mental solace right now. As opposed to the gauzy reflectiveness of last year’s 'Memory Repetitions’ for Smalltown Supersound, 'Future Predictions’ was instead intended as a…
Diffusion Is A Force
Martina Lussi’s second album fuses together disparate sound sources with a disorienting quality that reflects the modern climate of dispersion and distraction. The Lucerne, Switzerland-based sound artist released her debut album ‘Selected Ambient’ on Hallow Ground in 2017, and now comes to Latency with a bold new set of themes and processes. The range of tools at her disposal spans field recordings, processed instrumentation, synthesised elements and snatches of human expression. The guitar is …
Roche
**Limited Edition of 300** We are both pleased and proud to be releasing a new album by Mayerling, “Roche”. More than five years have gone by since we collaborated with the talented musician behind the project, Sylvain Bombled - who, like HITD itself, hails from Besançon, France - and put out his first brilliant album “Cut up”. It’s more electronic and bold than the first album... less traditional, more adventurous. The guitar has given way to synths and other analogue sequencers. As for the vo…
Bounds
Edition of 300 copies which include: colour printed, double-sided, semi-gloss insert; die-cut, poly-lined, black inner sleeve, and; stickered, resealable, poly outer sleeve. “Bounds” consists of 11 electro-acoustic compositions, whose first versions were constructed by Seth Nehil for the “Concerts in the Dark” series at Moers Festival 2012 curated by aufabwegen.

Live At Kathy's B-Day
Numbered edition of 200.John Olson (Wolf Eyes, American Tapes, etc..) and Spencer Yeh (Burning Star Core) live.
Robert Piotrowicz / Carl Michael Von Hausswolff
Edition of 200. Two creative and sound arty musicians are paired together here on this split LP from Poland’s Bocian label. Robert Piotrowicz gives us some intense analog synth-work, with overlapping pulse and tone action that’ll blast you. Carl Michael Von Hausswolff goes with subtle, quieter noise works that are all about explorations of texture. Great stuff on both sides of this highly limited LP.
Domestic Economy
The playful confidence that exudes Finlay Shakespeare's practice is flagrantly laid out on Domestic Economy, his extraordinary debut full-length. Domestic Economy displays two eventful sides evidencing the unique musical approach Shakespeare has developed in such a short period of time. Let's get some facts straight, Finlay is young. And talented. His programming skills belie his years and one can detect a sharp appreciation of historical electronic pop whilst simultaneously developing a canny u…
Beyond Even (1992 - 2006)
Although they have sewn their names into the thread of rock history with their work with King Crimson, Roxy Music and production work ranging from Keith Tippett to U2, the three albums these boys have recorded together are equally important. It’s ironic that No Pussyfooting was withheld by Eno’s record company for two years, as they feared it would destroy his career. Its blend and textures of Eno’s electronics and Fripp’s treated guitars was as important to left-field music as Eno’s solo ambien…
Huellas Entreveradas
Beatriz Ferreyra has been at the forefront of electroacoustic music composition since 1963 when she joined the Groupe de Recherches Musicales as one of Pierre Schaeffer’s research assistants. She is one of very few composers still performing who was instrumental at the beginning of Schaeffer’s theories of sound objects and reduced listening techniques. She continues to compose commissioned works and perform around the world in a career that has spanned some sixty years.From the 1960s until 1997 …

Amethyst Glory
"Cyprus 1982. A family holiday that would turn out to have a big impact on me. Visiting my grandparents on their sailing boat home the 'Amethyst Glory' and seeing the very real possibilities of adventure and self exploration at such a young age planted deep rooted seeds which I am only just beginning to understand. My beautiful family the Houghtons, you made me. This is for you."Simon Houghton aka Sneaky is a Manchester born and bred cellist, bass player, arranger, composer and DJ operating out …
Ingrid
Klara Lewis comes into her own with the furling melancholic loops and raging despair of "Ingrid", recalling Steve Reich’s phasing inventions worn out by Basinski, or the way her stark native landscape manifests in black metal.
Cairo Primo
"Cairo Primo" is Alberto Boccardi's third solo album and his comeback since 2014 "Fingers" (Cassauna / Important Rec). After several collaborations and releases along these years, Alberto emerges with his personal memories of the time spent in the Egyptian Metropolis. Past and present merge into mystery. Tension and calmness become energy.
Scacco Matto
Lorenzo Senni’s ravishing new album ‘Scatto Matto’ prizes thrilling new music from a teenaged background as drummer for straight edge hardcore bands and a nostalgia for the rush of trance, bringing the tension of his early releases to a glorious conclusion. ‘Scatto Matto’ is a complex love note to the ecstatic, aerobic, and emotional ‘90s and 00’s dance and rock music formative in Lorenzo Senni’s multidisciplinary practice. Its title translates as ‘Check Mate’ and it is the ultimate move in Lor…
Agitations: Post-Electronic Sounds
Oscillatorial Binnage's "Agitations: Post-Electronic Sounds" is an 11-track album of post-digital, post-electronic music. The recordings are deeply acoustic - no electronic processing features anywhere. The sounds are produced by the experimental manipulation of repurposed recycled objects subjected to electromagnetic force fields. The 'infinite world of the real' offers up richly unpredictable effects, with fields of vibration producing psychoacoustic flourishes, along with spontaneous, arbitra…
Kamilhan, il y a Péril en la Demeure
"Kamilhan, il y a Péril en la Demeure" is the conclusion of a 5-part cycle of works by artist Grischa Lichtenberger which was initiated with the album "La Demeure, il y a Péril en la Demeure" in 2015 and continued with the triple EP release "Spielraum, Allgegenwart, Strahlung" in 2016.
Fauli Til Dauli
Tip! - Daily Fauli was the rare minimal synth project of Danish artist Søren Fauli. In 1983, he released one album entitled Fauli Til Dauli on a small label called Gry Records. Søren was nineteen when he recorded this masterpiece and had no prior musical training. He had been playing in punk bands as a teenager and decided to break off to make a solo record. With access to stolen equipment, mainly synthesizers, he wrote these songs very spontaneously and recorded them in a period of one week. He…
