How To Be Yourself
Enrico Cesaro, the person behind the alias Mace., is back releasing his brand new work in collaboration with viscm and angoisse. "How to be Yourself” is an ode to the ever-changing, untouchable unfolding of the self and the elusive observation of it.
The ensemble of tracks shapes a canvas of individual experiences, family memories and collective uncoscious that suggests - both by blending together and maintaining their own singular character - the hurdle of grasping totality. Unexpected contras…
One Day
*2024 stock* In the summer of 2007, Jones visited Foster in South Korea and did a series of shows there and in Japan, both as their duo English and in other combinations.

Lights In The Pond
Lights In The Pond is a contemplative exploration of a dilated dimension. Layers of natural field recordings form a landscape inhabited by rarefied melodies that unravel and chase each other until they tear apart.A bioluminescent pool, scanned by the technological remnants of a hidden humanity.
Lights In The Pond is the solo project of Davide Amici, born in 1987 in a small town on the Adriatic coast. Over the years, he dabbled in various genres and played many instruments, mastering none and enj…
Black
'Black' is a musical eulogy to Amy Winehouse, a heartfelt memorial to a sorrowful demise. Its an album of predominantly beatless ambience possessed by the ghost of 'Back to Black'. Fragmented moods and hypnotic drones melt together as its circular beauty is set adrift, floating away into an endless void, where the original only remains in spirit alone. It doesn’t make particular sense why I was drawn to this idea and compelled to immerse myself in the original song, and her life in general, but …

In Another Land pt.1
*2024stock* „In Another Land pt. I“ is the first part of a planned trilogy. It is more or less electronic music, generated through long processes of editing and sampling. It's experimental in terms of that its shape and its meaning were not planned, were unclear during its creation and still now are not evident but somehow hard to reveal. It is based on a strict concept which could be very well explained, which the composer decided not to do. Instead of that it is full of hints. It's not a riddl…

Dust Devil
"Snapshots of the myriad moods that populate trajectories of one’s most intimate bonds with friends, lovers, the body, the self, and immediate surroundings. Glimpses of providing care for oneself, sparking romance, splintering, daily drama, and embarking through an inner desert.
Intersections at a certain place in time, in softness and compassion.
There is much pain in suspension, much anger in grief.
Seek nourishment—
Wide open space, endless horizon road.” — Naemi
The Amygdala Expedition
A truly stunning masterstroke with almost no equivalent, "The Amygdala Expedition", by the Hungarian musician and musicologist, László Hortobágyi, weaves a singular world of myth and imagination at the boundaries of New Age, Ambient, experimental, and ethnographic music. Drawn from a body of work that first began to emerge during the late '80s and early '90s
The Itself of Itself
CD in a vinyl replica style sleeve with 24-page booklet and obi strip. Steven Wilson is no stranger to composing music that appears to counter everything else before it in his catalogue. Bass Communion, his long running solo electronic project, is no exception to this perverse streak that apparently likes to turn all expectations upside down. 'The Itself of Itself', Bass Communion’s first album for 12 years, skillfully pays testament to this.
Long established as a purveyor of mostly atmospheric …
