On Ash, Paul Chain strips his sound down to its smouldering core, turning slow‑burn riffs, funereal keys and desolate vocal invocations into a stark ritual of aftermath, where every chord feels like a fragment left behind by some unnamed catastrophe.

** 2026 Stock ** An unpublished portrait of one of the greatest occultists of the 20th century: Fulvio Rendhell. From his childhood spent in a family of mediums to the founding of the Navona 2000 spiritualist circle. The incredible story of the founding father of modern magic understood as a true science.

Strictly limited deluxe LP edition on 180gr vinyl, incl. gatefold & inner sleeves and lyric sheet.  All songs written between 1980 and 1983.  This record was never completed. What was originally intended to become the third album by Aksak Maboul (the seminal band formed by Marc Hollander with Congotronics producer Vincent Kenis) had gradually evolved into a strange artefact, closely mingling (iconic Honeymoon Killers chanteuse) Véronique Vincent’s dreamy vocals and deceptively bubbly lyrics with…

** Edition of 500 ** Rediscovering an artist like Paul Chain is a very important moment for the musical culture of old fans and younger rockers who, for age reasons, could not live firsthand the artistic evolution of one of the most brilliant musicians of the entire Italian music scene. "In the Darkness", originally published back in 1986, is the second work of Paul Chain Violet Theatre, a band in which Catena surrounds himself with talented musicians, including some former bandmates at the time…

Acousmatic black metal. A concept album based on the namesake fourth scene of «Samstag aus Licht», from the opera «Licht: die sieben Tage der Woche», composed by Karlheinz Stockhausen.

** 2026 Stock ** The spirit of Paul Chain's music is definitely identifiable to anyone who is immersed in the mysticism of Pentagram, Trouble, Sleep and others of the emerging scene of the early to mid 80s, but where usually a few little nuances make these acts distinct, PC has staked out territory all his own with an extremely exaggerated variant of the sub-genre that has lost none of its mystique in the passing decades. 2017 Remastered Edition. Paul Chain, Guitar and Vocals. Paul Dark, Bass. E…

Tip! *200 copies limited edition* As an American in Belgium, McLoud Zicmuse developed a deep love for some of the customs of his new-found homeland: archery, aging geuze-beers, and not in the least: playing de ‘hommel”, a local cousin of the apalachian Dulcimer. With the persona Linus Vandewolken, Zicmuse took a deep dive into these traditions and created an album that at the same time sounds very traditional and very impulsive. a fearless  exploration of the sounds and melodies a ‘Hommel’ is ca…

Ghostly industrial from One of my favorite local projects. 60 minutes of warm and dreamlike tape music. This recording is for me a perfect example of how music for magnetic tape can feel as organic as the vibrations of a string or the humming of a voice, when utilizing the flaws and unpredictability of tapes and tape machines.

Beautiful bedroom noise from Malmø, Carrying the Swedish tape noise torch forward. Stripped down and restrained, but with a lot of depth to be found in the textures. Philip, who is behind the project also does the amazing label Sinkhole Editions.

One hour of exquisite microcassette manipulation from a great friend of the label. A free flowing audio diary documenting daily routines and primitive audio experiments. Some of the best tape murk to be produced on danish soil for many years.

I’m very happy to present a split cassette of two of my favorite tape music artists from Denmark. A half hour of strange magnetic signals, unidentifiable voices, and all round textural bless. Too quiet to be noise, too gnarly to be ambient, but absolutely perfect for this label.

Ultra homemade brilliance from my friend Johannes. Four years of bedroom recordings edited down to a half hour of DIY perfection. Best pop record on the label for sure. The only pop record maybe but crazy good nonetheless.

*200 copies limited edition* Erik Klinga’s second entry in his Thanatosis trilogy is darker, more dystopian in its bloom. Where his debut glowed with incandescent warmth, Hundred Tongues absorbs the unease of the present and yet throws a flash of light, albeit blinding. Composed at Malmö Art Museum on the 16th-century Genarpsorgan, threaded with his Buchla synthesizer, field recordings from Skåne and Öland, and a deliberate, focused touch, it reads as one long form: episodes that coil, return, a…

*75 copies limited edition* A two-chapter suite for modular & FM synth, wind & string instruments, electronics, sound objects and field recordings. The work is structured as a two-chapter descent from concrete score to analog & digital abstraction. It begins with the tangible written material and human presence of the performers, which are systematically subjected to a process of erosion. The initial components are reduced to "digital dust” — meaningless data fragments — then recombined algorith…

*75 copies limited edition* Aves de Nahá is the result of an interdisciplinary exchange of knowledge between anthropology, ornithology, and the Lacandon community of Nahá, Chiapas, México. It centers on the aural relationships between the Lacandon people and the birds of their jungle. The work invites us to listen to birds as sentient beings — creatures whose calls and songs announce shifts in weather and time cycles, accompany rituals, and participate in a shared environment where the jungle it…

Renowned composer and guitarist Oren Ambarchi releases Long Story Short, a captivating solo guitar album that distills his signature sonic explorations into intimate, hypnotic compositions. Recorded on December 9, 2024, by Daniel Bengston at Studio Rymden in Stockholm, and mixed in February 2025 by Joe Talia and Ambarchi at Good Mixture in Melbourne, the album features two evocative tracks: "Apricot/Paper Cut" (4:02) and "And So Say All Of Us" (4:12).  Ambarchi's mastery shines through in these …

Alan Michael Bloor was making experimental music before he started developing his now long-running harsh noise project Knurl. These recordings see Bloor using homemade instruments to create sounds that are like if John Carpenter was part of the 70s Berlin School gone lo-fi. All tracks recorded in October 1991, on the verge of harsh sound explorations that would soon become Knurl. Sourced from the original master tape in Bloor’s archive.

In the ever-expanding universe of ambient and minimal electronic music archaeology, certain discoveries feel more significant than others - those rare moments when a previously overlooked recording emerges to fill gaps we didn't even know existed in our understanding of the genre's evolution. Stroom's reissue of Milan W's Leave Another Day represents precisely such a revelation, offering contemporary listeners access to a work that exemplifies the sophisticated minimalism that flourished in expe…

Tip! *2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "When I was in Paris 2013 - 2015, the second apartment in which I stayed was on Rue Adolphe Mille, which more or less ran along the western border of the Parc de la Villette in the 19th Arrondissement. On the opposite side of the park, the new Philharmonie de Paris, designed by Jean Nouvel, was nearing its long-delayed completion. Eric La Casa, a master of in situ field recording/performance, lived just up the street as well and, in 2013, ventured in…

*200 copies limited edition* Pefkin is the alter ego of Gayle Brogan, a Sheffield-based creator of slowly-unfolding, ritualistic hymnals that draw deeply on landscape, nature, and the histories that bind them. Her sound is built from a mesmerising layering of voice, viola, analogue synths, harmonium, melodica, zither and field recordings manipulated with a kaleidoscopic array of effects. Hereby she blurs the boundaries between folk, psychedelia, and experimental music. Over the years her work ha…

On Reflections Vol. 3: Water Poems, Félicia Atkinson and Christina Vantzou channel their friendship and atmospheric artistry into ceremonial focus. Spoken-word environments and orchestral imagination flow like tributaries into a unified stream, resulting in a collection of dreamlike songs and soundscapes anchored in sea, sky and stone. Through electro-acoustic instrumentation, voice, and environmental sound, Water Poems invites listeners into a subconscious space somewhere between everyday intim…

A serial collaborator wh…

*170 copies limited edition* "It was looking at the map—in 2013—that led me to the Libre Valley. The name itself, "Le Libre" is rather unusual and certainly catches the eye. The map also reveals large, uninhabited areas far from transportation routes—particularly the entire area between St-Martin-des-Puits and Villerouge-Termenès—rocky, arid regions where the ruins of old sheepfolds can still be found, and even a chapel perched atop a hill. I had just finished my work on the Taurion River — kdi…

Double feature stint on Kashual Plastik. Twofold recreational Nordic spice, cultivated for dreamy solitude escapades and meditative tune voyages in witchcraft mood. Side A comes from Finnish experimental musician Juho Toivonen, shaped in his home in the city of Pori. A veiled minimalistic dream of gentle noise loops and environmental sounds, meeting a desiring voice that echoes haunting, mantra-like lyrics. Ship horns and other slow mechanic found sounds convoy it into eternity, while we, the au…
