Vox Tinnitus
Long deleted, few available: objects and phenomena commonly viewed as "static" often appear to be lively processes or life-forms in a different scale, dimension or system of coordinates. it is possible to observe known "hidden" activities (such as planetary motion, cellular life or electro-magnetic disturbances) by using an appropiate technique. however, these processes can also be perceived as anomalies in a state of enhanced awareness or hyper-sensitivity. sometimes they are fun, too.---------…

L'ile Re-Sonante
Back in stock, long time deleted "For the second time this year it falls to Eliane Radigue to launch a new French label – and if the people at Shiiin follow the path traced with this release we can expect great things. L'île re-sonante reaches the same intensity level as Radigue's earlier glories. Inspired by a vision of her face reflected in the water of a lake, this single movement opus starts with a gradual oscillation throbbing its way through silence, wave cycles progressively concentrating…

Set Your Center Between Your Parts In Order To

As a professionally-trained jazz musician with academic credentials, Egeskov furthers his journey into the realm of minimalistic electronic music.

Raster Edits
Most people know Mark Fell and Mat Steel under the name SND. Like no other project before, they stand for the propagandized clicks-and-cut sound. They toured with Autechre and released two records in 1999 as Blir. The minimally-designed covers and the anonymous layout reveal that Blir as well as SND are names of projects rather than names of a band. Blir was always meant to be an open platform. Mat and Mark had been working in the surrounding field of Sheffield University where they first met Au…

Like A Packed Cupboard But Quite...
First full length, full size album by Dekorder (Matt Wand, Black To Comm, John Hegre, a.o.) and it is dedicated to Un Caddie Renversé dans l’herbe the meta-global wunderkind from Sao Paulo, Brazil, now residing in Barcelona, Spain, that uses all these weird instruments from far away continents to find and refine subtle yet exciting tracks. At times the music sounds so tiny and little and to be cared for and at times it grows into planetary proportions by the added value of meaning and a message.
Darkvaks
Second 10-track (!) Mini-CD by John Peel (RIP) favourite Voks from Copenhagen on the Dekorder label after the (sold out) "Vaks Vanskab Ak".

Mastered by our friend the G-Man Gaeoudjiparl (formerly known to the world as Goodiepal).
Atlas saltA (Map Lies, Border Lies...)
On his third release for Dekorder Didac Lagarriga is opening his sound towards a more open, less formal and repetitive style, mixing field recordings, instruments from Africa and South East Asia and surreal voices into a floating freeform sound. Including the most beautiful love song I have ever heard.

Dishoek
2005 release ** "Just before we started to miss Guido Möbius he surprised us with “Dishoek”, his second album, recorded for Hamburg’s Dekorder label. Again featuring a conglomeration of acoustic and electrical instruments (guitar, bass, violin, cornet drums, synthesizer, clarinet among other things.) and a variety of guests, so that one hardly dares to call it a solo album. Still everything is magically held together by one single person. Melodies and noises, styles and individual characteristic…
