Light From Another Sun
"An experiment in Coordinate Remote Listening (CRL) a psychosonic technique that permits a "listener" to transcend time and space to "listen" or "perceive" remote targets - people, places, entities, objects or phenomena - without the listener being physically present, or the target being within human auditory range." - Oracle ChamberOriginating out of Vancouver, BC, Oracle Chamber is the collaborative project between the mind behind Ritual Purification and artist Chris von Szombathy. This is noi…
Negative Dream Body Tranference
Häxa Komät returns to Bent Window with a long-form track for deep dreaming amidst the spirits. Displaying excellent esoteric guidance, "Negative Dream Body Transference" brings to life the power of the hidden mind.
Sacrificator / Scarificator
Sainerine is known in Vancouver for live performances involving self-mortification with an industrial staple gun. These wounds of purity and obedience are drained on their debut tape, “Sacrificator / Scarificator”. Raised in institutions of Catholicism and classical music, they perform what they know: blood and opera. Synth arrangements weep over rich vocals and pained harmonies, alongside elements of noise that rip into the belly of this confessional. The artist negotiates a constricted past, s…
Brutícia
A collaborative harsh noise c40 chock full of nauseating frequencies and tones. Both artists hail from Spain, bringing their distinctive style to this release!
Ashes
Coming from Genoa, Italy, Regen Graves (guitarist/drummer of death-doom band Abysmal Grief) brings his solo dark ambient project to Bent Window. "Ashes" presents expansive soundscapes for the dreary years. Cities that lay wasted in ashes from above have a soundtrack with this latest effort.
Yellow Springs
Beherit (electro), Diabolos Rising, and 90’s industrial fans will be excited to discover the debut release from Yellow Springs (Vancouver Island, BC). Formed by members of the black metal band Tarvos, this duo explores the boundaries of internal meditative chaos. Electronics envelop over demonic vocals calling out from the bottom of the pit.
Imploding Harmony
Absolute Key (Finland) is a powerful, flexible entity that swirls in the realms of dark art. In this go around the artist presents us with the release "Imploding Harmony". It's album title does not betray what lies within. Cacophony echoes out toward an empty sky. Absolute Key rains down harsh frequencies, evoking the eldritch prowess of the eternal void. Chaos reigns in this extensive study of the beyond.
Tab In/Tab Out + Apocalypstick
Wall noise fanatics take note on this split between Tab In/Tab Out (Seattle) & Apocalypstick (Pittsburgh). American harsh noise wall done only the way two artists of this calibre can do it! For those not in the know Tab In/Tab Out is a project from Imploding Sounds head honcho Tim Burkland, and Apocalypstick is a project of Thomas Puopolo who runs Summer Interlude. Get ready to rumble, quite literally.
Hormonic B.C.
Morgan Hall (Greece) brings a hedonistic take to dark ambient on "Hormonic B.C.". Streets lay barren and grey, buildings crumble as time passes. The atmosphere is thickened by the heat, as those left amidst the ruins revel in listless debauchery. A formidable collection of bitter truths published by way of sonic excess.
One Void Ceremonial Program I
Bent Window is proud to present this ritual ambient release from the One Void Collective (Atlanta, GA). Pay attention to the stripped down rhythyms, melting into their surroundings. The trance-like work leading down the paths of the metaphysical. In reference to the recording Häxa Komät expresses the following: "Thematically based on the religious and spiritual practices of animatism and unitary religious experiences via ritual, ceremony, self expression and art. Presented through the lens of th…
Ash In The Room Below (demo)
*25 copies limited edition* Bleak ambient for insomniacs. N.G. - synthesizers.
Politique du silence
"When I discovered the simple and powerful black and white pictures by Valéry Lorenzo, in the 90s, I immediately fell in love with them. We became good friends and since then I ask him to let me use one of his photos for most of my album covers, or to make my portrait for press shots. It has become a real collaboration, music and images, for more than 25 years. It was then logical to ask him again for the cover of this box set, like a gentle reflection on my piano and strings era. It's a true ho…
The Sounds of Sound Sculpture
In 1973, the Sound Sculpture Show took place at the Vancouver Art Gallery. An LP audio catalogue (with a booklet) of the exhibition, entitled “The Sounds of Sound Sculpture”, was released in 1975 under the supervision of the Canadian sound sculptor John Grayson and US composer David Rosenboom. Grayson had edited an important early book on the field, “Sound Sculpture”. The LP included rare takes of Rosenboom and Grayson, amongst others, playing famous pieces by pioneering sound sculptors includin…
This Year in Coconuts Vol. 2
Exquisitely compiled by Discrepant head honcho Gonçalo F. Cardoso from three tapes released earlier this year by the tireless mind-body of Spencer Clark through his own Pacific City Sound Visions, 'This Year In Coconuts Vol. 2' is another revelation into the deeply personal sound world of this true voyager of both ancient, present and forthcoming times. Coming from a truly singular artist, capable of conveying multiple visions into a labyrinthine-esque mythology all ofhis own, these seven tracks…
Where the Word is Never
*300 copies limited edition* If anybody has been paying attention (and in my opinion they bloody well should…), they might be aware that Gary Mundy of Ramleh and Breathless announced several years ago that he planned to do a solo CD every year for as long as he could. His solo guise as Kleistwahr started in the early 1980s as a more directly noise/post-industrial-inspired project that saw a few limited edition cassette releases appear on his much respected Broken Flag imprint. While these casset…
Open Soul
Released in 1976 by Chicago's local label Stage Productions, this is the only album by a 6-piece soul band centered around the four Burton brothers. The original version is rarely available on the market, and when it does sell for over US$1000, it's no exaggeration to say that it's the ultimate collector's edition that everyone wants at least once! Starting with the epic and groovy funk "Open Soul" (B1) that uses the entire B-side of the record and lasts over 20 minutes, the superb funky tune "L…
Born Trembling
*300 copies limited edition* Tremble With Joy is a new collaboration between Cinder (Cindytalk), Michael Anderson (Drekka), Mark Trecka, and Michael Carlson (remst8).

This is the second relea…
