The Commune Of Nightmares
The new album The Commune Of Nightmares by noise artist David Wallraf is a tapeloop-based musical game of cadavre exquis, a technique developed by surrealist artists. David Wallraf is a noise artist and theorist living in Hamburg. His artistic work deals with the repressed and uncanny sonic residues of quotidian life, crafting soundtracks for the creeping disaster we inhabit. His works have been released on numerous international tape labels. A recent interest of his is the live scoring of silen…
Come October
*300 copies limited edition* "Come October" is the sixth album from Himukalt, the solo project of Nevada-based Ester Kärkkäinen. Originally released as a tape in 2018 (Found Remains), this is the first time on vinyl for the album, and comes with additional 3 tracks based upon source material from the Come October sessions, making up the entire second platter. Remastered for vinyl by Grant Richardson. "With a sound that is rough and decidedly gritty, the analogue derived tones are soot and rust i…
Liaisons Dangereuses
*2023 much needed repress!* The only full-length from the West Germany trio known as Liaisons Dangereuses, this self-titled record (originally released via TIS records in 1981) is somewhat of a Holy Grail for fans of EBM and minimal synth. Thankfully, Soulsherrif Records has reissued this rarity! Comprised of members Beate Bartel, Chrislo Haas, and Krishna Goineau, Liaisons Dangereuses was only active for a couple of years. Beate and Chrislo played in numerous famous German electronic and goth …
Avalanche Zone
*300 copies limited edition* Originally released in spring 2021 by US label L.I.E.S. on vinyl, Anthony Di Franco of Ramleh returns to Fourth Dimension Records with a timely and well-deserved reissue. Featuring three additional tracks to the original six, 'Avalanche Zone' is a weighty and abrasive follow-up to 2018's 'Weapon Design' that's propelled by cranium-crunching bass, icy and portentous textures, battlefield rhythms and just the faintest nod to Anthony's love of both old school noise and …
For the Lives Once Lived
Several years ago Gary Mundy of Ramleh/Broken Flag (and far more besides) declared to me that he wished to do one new Kleistwahr album every year until he's no longer able to do them. Fourth Dimension Records has subsequently fulfilled a promise to honour this plan as much as possible and is managing to keep up so far. How Gary manages to keep pulling new ideas out of the proverbial hat at this rate is anybody's guess, but the latest album, 'For the Lives Once Lived', illustrates very clearly th…
Love, Emily
Originally released in a long sold-out edition of 50 cassette tapes, Love, Emily (Acte 3) was the third and final album of Michel Henritzi’s industrial label AKT Production. Recorded in a Paris studio in 1987, this 25-minute collage of spoken word and noise saturations intersects two radical voices from literature and experimental music of the time: American author Kathy Acker reading excerpts from her book My Death My Life by Pier Paolo Pasolini, and Nox, mainstay of the French noise and indust…
Sillmjölke
Big Tip! *First time vinyl pressing of Engürdetz' 1988 release "Sillmjölke", originally accompanied by Lille Roger's "Rock N Roll 85-86". 500 copies. "Sillmjölke" differed from the duo’s previous outputs. The tracks had moved closer into the formula of a ”standard” song formula & the influences from British industrialists such as Whitehouse had become more apparent, along with sections that made your mind venture to the freer & ambient sides of Swell Maps (even if they didn’t necessarily know wh…
Death Time
Tip! *199 copies limited edition* Step into the enigmatic world of Morthond, a captivating music project that took shape during the winter of 1990 under the creative guidance of the singular talent, BJ Nilsen. Morthond isn't confined by genre labels; instead, it's a canvas where experimental soundscapes, dark atmospheres, and ambient textures converge to create an immersive auditory experience. Unlike traditional projects, Morthond thrives on pushing sonic boundaries and challenging the norm. Ro…
Après Nous Le Déluge
*299 copies limited edition* Dive into the enigmatic world of raison d'être, a mesmerizing music project masterminded by the Swedish composer and sound artist, Peter Andersson. Renowned for his profound ability to conjure immersive auditory landscapes, Andersson's raison d'être has left an indelible mark on the ambient and dark-industrial genres. At the core of "raison d'être" lies a philosophy deeply intertwined with the exploration of existential themes and the mysteries of human consciousness…
Lamina
This long-gestating box set of Scottish electronic pioneer Drew McDowall’s solo work takes its title from a technical term meaning ‘plate’ or ‘layer’ most often used in contexts either geological or anatomical: Lamina. He speaks of the compiling process similarly: “Digging into my archives felt like a mix of psychoanalysis and archaeology – uncovering buried things.” The six CD collection includes expanded editions of his four most recent Dais LPs (Collapse, 2015; Unnatural Channel, 2017; The Th…
Beyond the Reach of Light
*300 copies limited edition* Beyond the Reach of Light is the 4th release from Oakland-based drone musician Field of Fear. The band’s most personal record, Beyond the Reach of Light chronicles the ebbs and flows of depression with harrowing precision. The album is an emotionally raw and sonically varied experience - in a moment changing from aggressive industrial charges in “Darkness” to subdued ambient drone throbs in “Cold.” Album closer “Lost” emparts a sense of someone emotionally spent and …
Domina Estelectrica
Javier Hernando's musical journey began in 1979 with his first band, Xeerox. In 1981, he embarked on his first fully electronic project, Melodinamika Sensor, which continued until 1985. During that year, three tracks by M.S. were featured on a compilation LP titled Grupos de Barcelona, released by Discos Esplendor Geométrico. This compilation showcased four bands from the thriving Barcelona underground scene. From 1985 to the early nineties, Hernando co-directed the cassette label Ortega y Casse…
Claim
*100 copies limited edition* A much more ominous creature than they, or you, ever expected, Westholm and Hielm had no option but to let Claim have its way with both of them. Now it’s coming for you.
Ping Pong
*270 copies limited edition* In our little history, the number 7, besides a kind of esoteric fascination, has marked important milestones in our evolutionary journey. This is why Raw Culture has decided to pay homage in grand style to its seventh year as an independent sound guarantor. To do so, it weaves a co-production with Oderso Rubini, historical memory of the Italian New Wave and head of Italian Records in the 80s. Out of this synergy comes our 24th release, Ping Pong, a dancefloor of diss…
Khushue
*43 copies limited edition* Virus2020 ( فيروس ٢٠٢٠ ) creates soundscapes that transcend divisions, where you can’t identify a specific culture, where boundaries dissolve. His approach combines elements of both tradition and modernity, blending acoustic and electronic textures seamlessly and incorporating, alongside a range of analogue and digital machines, handcrafted wind instruments inspired by North African rituals. Virus2020 is the solo project of Rami Harrabi, a Tunisian artist born in 1989…
Regression
Wolf Eyes’ Nate Young captured at the peak of his powers, doing his singular technoid punk thing a decade ago at Hamburg’s legendary Golden Püdel. Oozing like brain juice from a caved skull, it’s fully gnarled, hi-grade TripMetal, a perfect addition to the DDS tape series.
Harrington Ballroom - Exhumed & Reanimated

Anthology Of Contemporary Post Industrial Music
*200 copies limited edition* The 20th century was marked by a turning point in the way we, human beings, relate to technology. Since the First Industrial Revolution until the advent of personal computers and the internet, we have watched almost one hundred years of technological revolutions that culminated into the creation of colour TV, the nuclear bomb, the modernist vanguards and postmodernism. We also saw the rise of a new music genre that was actually translating this industrial, chaotic, i…
Stasis
*2023 stock. 100 copies limited edition* A deposition of cold electronics and harsh frequencies to testify to the perpetual stagnation of reality. Nothing ever changes except the means through which this successful illusion is maintained. "Stasis" is an exploration, in seven chapters, of the diagrams of the power mechanisms caging us in an invisible prison: civilization. From the anointing ritual of ecstatic pain engrafting the mental germ, to its own epiphany, and to the final revelation: the w…
