Atmospheric Fragments
Submerged, resonant ambient deep dives by Sa Pa, full of diffractive slosh and captivating shadowplay that builds on examples found on that ace LP for Mana.
Form & Feeling
Nein Rodere is the moniker of the Berlin-based music maker and visual artist David Roeder. Having played in bands for more than 20 years - often times making improvised music with other “non-musicians” - Roeder was trained in painting and psychodynamic art therapy.

The body of solo efforts that has slowly emerged over the last five years brings to mind the…

*200 copies limited edition. In process of stocking. 2023 stock* “This untitled album is an excavation of fluff and audio detritus, feathery caverns being mined for tangled fibres. Insular and close, the sound-environment captured by this trio is somewhat akin to water-logged ears; a pressured confusion of indistinct voices, tape-whispers, and buzzing electronics.
