End At Blue Cut
*50 copies limited edition* "It was a slow growing body of work with material continuously transforming, being re-recorded and discarded, lost sounds emerging from forgotten loops and a few staple tracks dragging at me to dig deeper. I also found myself working on other music during this time and gradually the Blue Cut tapes went lingering into hibernation.
However, early spring brought me focus when I was unable to play music due to surgery I had undergone. Seemingly, the only way of creating m…

Each track is an exploration of sound's constant transformation, akin to dragonfly particles swimming in the air. Like waves occupying a space in the spectrum, the compositions work with the movement, condensation, and lightness of the air.

*2024 stock* "leg shaking is not an easy action. or better say "non-action" as it's about moving unconsciously and always meaning negative. yes it's not easy to be unconscious and negative while the body was controlled by such a social agency, i.e. the body itself. i mean there is no naked body left. there is only the built body. so does the language. basically i think language is something generated by a body and through this body to its outer environment. the body is an energy transformer and …

Kill A Phantom
Rent ist the pseudonym of artist and ecologist Katrin Euller. Rent’s sounds refer to industrial ecosystems, interconnections, dark landscapes and their stories and the stories of those who inhabit these places. At the same time, it is the processes of sound creation itself that emerge in Rent's compositions: sounds influence each other, reinforce each other, cancel each other out, dissolve and become noise, sound like the city, a car alarm for example. Then everything gets lost in the fog again.…
Jump
*35 copies limited edition* The album begins with a reminiscence of the sea, reverberating waves and suspended echoes of distant, almost forgotten territories. Curved vibrations, nocturnal environments mixed with contemporary research attitudes within the world of liminal/drone music. Oblique surfaces bending in the transposition of azimuth, memory and flow becoming the result of a hypothetical jump. A plastic and interpretative configuration of a body movement, the desire to grow consciously vi…

Cirque
Huge Tip! The Circus is a place of lights and colors, but also of shadows, even darkness. Admittedly, it delights children and makes adults laugh. But you only need one rainy autumn evening near a circus tent and the smell of fodder to think of the sadness of the clowns, the endless training of the animals and the freaks who are hidden in some caravan... cinema, the essence of the circus – movement, light, danger and burlesque – will have been admirably rendered in Notes on the circus by Jonas M…
