Spektralmaskin
"Spektralmaskin, a collaborative album by the Norwegian musicians Jo David Meyer Lysne and Peder Simonsen, owes its name to a sort of prospecting: the process of sliding e-bows—small magnetic motors of adjustable speeds used to sustain sounds, here of Lysne’s own design—along guitar strings to produce harmonics. As these harmonics can occur erratically, the technique rewards the musician patient enough to scoot the e-bow about the string, waiting for the delicate sounds to crest. The duo’s fasci…
TG Berlin Box Set
Throbbing Gristle and Mute’s partnership continues with the release of TG Berlin, a lavish box set chronicling their previously unreleased work in Berlin around a very special series of live events at the Volksbühne in 2005/2006.

Sing Nightingale
Tip! Two musicians, two different folk music traditions, two soundscapes hundreds of miles apart and one nightingale song. Nightingale melodies inspired this intoxicating folk album by Slovakian flautist Michaela Antalová and Norwegian double bassist Adrian Myhr. The Oslo-based duo’s album follows their meditative 2021 debut Zvony (Bells), which featured harmonium, field recordings of crickets and a Slovak male choir. Sing Nightingale is a translation of ‘Zaspievaj Slavicku’, a traditional Slova…

Voltæ (Chthulucene)
Melancholic. Intense. Deep. Epic. “Voltæ (Chthulucene)” is a tribute to electricity and telluric forces, a complete celebration of life, a symbiosis for an epistemic shift.
Codice D'Amore Orientale OST
‘Codice D'Amore Orientale’ is a 1974 film directed by Piero Vivarelli, author also of the song “24,000 baci”, made famous by Adriano Celentano and his own record company.

The two run away and find themselves in a forest temple, where the high priest initiates t…
The Gate
*100 copies limited edition* Welsh musician Aisha Vaughan presents The Gate. It is upon us to renew the deep-cut, heavy-weighted melancholy of Celtic New Age for 2024. New Age music from the Celtic/British Isles crossed over into the mainstream in the late 80s - notably with Enya (and her band Clannad), the perhaps now lesser-known instrumental Celtic harp music of Patrick Ball, and the slew of now mostly forgotten various artist compilations that saturated the New Age CD and cassette music mark…

L’Album Vert
Tip! *300 copies limited edition* ‘L’album vert’ is a compilation of asynchronous steps for an imaginary dance foor. A strange but amusing place were eyes listen in and ears peek around. Glass breaks, someone stumbles, something always happens. The dancers inevitably hop to moments of tension of which they free themselves again and again. Almost always there is some kind of beat. Not the kind of beat that makes the hips wiggle, but rather the pulse of a crooked factory or a quirky steam engine …
The Last We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other
*150 copies limited edition* "[...]Ansgar Wilken uses an arsenal of sounds that is as simple as it is far-reaching, including objects and utensils whose inherent sounds sometimes sound almost computer-generated. Whether (or where and how what kind of) electronics are used is often difficult to determine, if only because the musician himself is somewhat electrified and can unexpectedly fall into machine rhythms while playing. Wilken's clapping opens up musical worlds in which, instead of virtuosi…

Ece Canlı's sophomore solo album Sacrosun is a non-linear series of maximalist meditations on interstellar anxieties. The composer, vocalist and researcher draws on her diverse artistic and academic backgrounds to craft an immersive sonic landscape that expands beyond the terrestrial limitations of her acclaimed 2020 debut Vox Flora, Vox Fauna. Where her first album dug into tellurian imaginaries inspired by the sonic variety of earthly creatures, Sacrosun expands this audio-vision out into a co…

Mogador
"Mogador" stands as a compelling exploration of the intersection between seemingly irreconcilable musical worlds: the experimental realm of analog electronic music and the deep-rooted tradition of Gnawa. This project is more than just a juxtaposition of styles; it’s a meeting of minds where the ancient and the modern, the analog and the organic, are woven together into a seamless auditory dialogue.
What truly sets "Mogador" apart is the way Pedro Vian’s use of the EMS AKS Synthi and Buchla doesn…
Mossed Capable of Being Observant
“Florian T M Zeisig returns to his home at enmossed with an LP of new material titled Mossed Capable of Being Observant under a new moniker, Angel R. On this latest sonic offering, Angel R arranges the recordings with an undertone of hope, letting the aural dramaturgy unfold sans forced melancholia typical of the genres contemporary cliches. Zeisig’s signature attention to the circular gravity of the loop is again showcased, but Angel R takes the dynamic to another plane for Mossed Capable of Be…
