Cantor Park
Originally released on CD in 2006 on Sedimental 'The Suncrows Fall And Tree' pushed Stefano Pilia to the forefront of the European experimental avant garde scene showcasing his incredible knack for creating beautiful soundscapes, blissful ambience and electroacoustic compositions that speak to the heart. His sound can aptly be defined ‘ecstatic', in the purest sense of the term, as a result of the exploration of these points of focus, through multi-instrumental practice and investigations into t…
Signal
*300 copies limited edition* Signal, Erik Enocksson and Kristofer Flensmarck's new collaborative work is an electroacoustic composition for voice and electronics – a contemporary echo of late twentieth-century avant-garde text-sound compositions – methodically burrowing its way deeper into a seemingly mundane existence, through alphabetical sequence, all the while revealing its inherent mystery:All förlust / all ilskaall meningslöshet / all skönhetAll natur / all rädslaall skit / all stillhet / …

Baskot Lel Baltageyya
Under meters of concrete in central Cairo, a relentless buzz rebels and forms a melody. A tired man tunes his machines to catch a snatch of it, and accidentally creates a playground where these abandoned sounds can flourish. They develop a sense of humor and an acid tongue.
Marjassa
Tip! *Silkscreen printed cover. Limited edition of 208 copies. Totally sold out at source * ...in February 2020, just in time before the outbreak of the ongoing pandemic, four avant-garde jazz/free improvisation enthusiasts got together to play and hang out. The place for their meeting, a cosy studio (Odd Funk Records) in a small town in Southern Finland, has during the past ten years received a certain reputation - that of analogically recorded and mixed raw funk, afrobeat and a bit more twiste…

Ambivalent (Selected Works 1994-2022)
Satoshi’s first solo retrospective spans diverse styles and patterns within a neat theme, and is impressively, mostly chiselled from a single synth - the Casio CZ-5000. Aside to the blissed mid-tempo Balearic sway of ‘New Dawn’ with Benedek & Kuniyuki, it’s all Satoshi solo, glyding from glistening bleeps recalling 1991 in ‘Sazanami’ to make us do a few double takes with the glitching house strut of ‘Coastlines’, to the sort of obsessive efficiencies recalling Theo Burt’s incredible ‘Gloss’ (its…
Humid Sun
Tip! For the good part of the past decade, Japanese composer-musician Masahiro Takahashi has been crafting gently spellbinding pieces that simultaneously embrace electronic abstraction and a palpable, even brittle, humanity. His delicate and evocative landscapes always seem to be illuminated in vibrant magic hour tones as golden synth lines emanate from between soft flickers of acoustic instrumentation. Since moving to Toronto in 2020, Takahashi has swiftly become a local fixture, enough so that…

A New Directive From The Bureau of Compulsory Entertainment
Previously better known for his analogue electronic music productions as Automatic Tasty, Jonny Dillon’s debut acoustic LP ‘Songs For A One-String Guitar’ took the listening public by surprise and the critics by storm when it dropped out of the blue on All-City in 2019. It represented a departure for an artist who was renowned for having the Midas touch when it came to coaxing dance floor fire from all manner of hardware. But fortune favours the brave and temporarily setting the machinery aside …
Eye Cube
I:Cube has made a new album. It is a very “hands on” album, as the eight tracks on show were created almost entirely by improvising with electronic hardware – synthesizers, sequencers, drum machines and effects units – and recorded in real time, with very little after-editing. It is also his first album in a decade, should you be keeping track. During the time he spent recording it, which was in part inspired by the processes behind his ‘Cubo Live Sessions’ series, I:Cube had fun, experimented, …
