Tomodachi
On Tomodachi, Stijn Hüwels gives us the best of his two worlds by combining his solo studio work with his collaborative efforts: “The starting point for this album was simple. I sent out a question to fellow musicians I deeply respect and whose work I especially like. I know all of them for some time, and they all have a significant influence on my work. I asked them to send me 'something', a sample, melody or field recording I could use to create a new piece of music. This exchange of inspirati…

The Entertainer
**250 copies** The Entertainer is Alex Twomey’s first album since 2012. Many have been waiting and, finally, here we are!

Eleven cinematic settings and bouncing refrains mark this LP. Alex describes the album as, “vignettes alluding to a vague narrative regarding one’s idea as an artist.” A somber beauty is penned. Alex previously recorded a…
Echo's Verse
**300 copies on heavyweight clear vinyl, silk-screened artwork** A few years ago, the California based musician R Beny came on the radar with numerous videos on YouTube and Instagram in which he explored the world of tape and sound synthesis.

This culminated in several solo releases (2018's Saudade was selected as one of the best ambient albums of the year by Fact Magazine) and live shows…

Sounds of the Studio
Sounds of the Studio, Anthony Gormley first audio work, has been trailed as a "teleportational sound portrait of Gormley's cathedral-like studio". In other words, it's an evocative snapshot of his working environment, mixing high-grade field recordings (Chris Watson would be proud) with elements of music concrete. Hammers, grinders, fans, welders, and all sorts of other beasts reverberate in the vast caverns of an extraordinary acoustic space. A true AAA valve mastered mono recording, direct to …

Prelude To Heart Is A Lotus
2013 release. Previously unavailable, this unearthed 1968 BBC Session contains markedly different versions from Michael Garrick's 1970 classic 'Heart Is A Lotus' album.

Suddenly One Summer

Like New Year's resolutions, many ambitious summer plans quickly fragment and are left unfulfilled.
