Light Flight / More And More
There are synthesizers, there are guitars, bass guitars, real drums and vocals in the first song. Components of rock and pop unite here in this lone 1977 effort and make way for elements of dark slow funk and soul that take you a couple of years back to the early seventies. The garment of swirling synthesizers keep it all together. The atmosphere can be soft and gentle like the touch of a lover’s hand but it can also become more and more mysterious and gloomy generating a feeling of paranoia as …
La Curva Paralela
Sentuhlà is one of the many aliases of musical jack of all trades José Guerrero, a long standing figure in the already rich underground scene of Valencia. In this solo excursion he explores the vast possibilities of mechanical repetition, the machine funk of dirtbag rhythms and proper boogie DIY synth music, sculpting a syncopated sound that is both modern and atavistic. Coming from a deep knowledge and ability to communicate very diverse sounds, slow jams unfold into dance music for clear eyed …
Horror Vacui
**Edition of 250** Music nowadays is a crime. The whole dark art consisting in whether the composer opts for death by suffocation (maximalism) or death by strangulation (the perennially fashionable anti-fashion that is minimalism). Jon Doe One’s debut record, Small Numbers, involved layer after layer of obsessive construction. Faced with its delirious palimpsest of rhythm and sound, listeners — those curious lost souls, I count myself amongst their ranks, alas — had no choice but to gag on the e…

Artists coming from Greece, Romania, Turkey, Serbia, Bulgaria, Albania, Slovenia, Macedonia, introduce us to their vision of post industrial music and culture.

Motus
Limited 2 LP edition. Isolationist pioneer Thomas Köner goes all the way in for his spiritual home of Mille Plateaux with a masterful new album of dynamic, grippingly minimalist sound designs "Motus is more (to me) than just music made with analogue synthesizers, it is about attitude, a way of relating to sound and the (e)motion it affects. A lifestyle, where movement, being moved and moving become one. My practice is vibrational, about the skin, touch and surfaces and the gaseous medium in bet…

Swanyard
**2CD in a 6-panel Digipak, second pressing in white color** 150 minutes of previously unreleased material from Coil, strewn with parts that would eventually metastasise into Backwards, and ultimately Black Light District and Musick To Play In the Dark.We hardly need to stress that Swanyard is a bounty for Coil nuts out there, but equally a fascinating listen for anyone attempting to get to grips with their unfathomable catalogue - especially DJs and listeners currently digging into the underbel…
Ocean Front Property
**CD in gatefold carboard wallet, 300 copies. To be released in mid July 2020.** Ocean Front Property represents a desired experience juxtaposed with a banal reality. The work investigates the idea of longing to be somewhere else, a mirage of aspired imagery and sound, made within the landlocked province of Alberta, where the nearest ocean is over 1000 kilometres away. The objects, spaces and sounds act as metaphors, part of a concrete existence they reside in, but contrasted with the imagined e…
Tape from Oort Cloud
Tip! **200 copies** Sedimental is honored to partner with Skell to release the latest majestic work from Mike Griffin’s Parashi: Tape from Oort Cloud. Griffin has honed an aesthetic that few are capable of attaining let alone comprehending: elegence and refinement fused to intense, sonic, noise-based electronics and sound sources. Over the two sides and four tracks Griffin conjures complex, heavy and nuanced terrain that triggers buried images and emotions without being emotional and that acts a…
Etudes From a Starship
Voin Oruwu is a project driven by Ukrainian artist Dmitriy Avksentiev. Etudes From a Starship is his second album and has been inspired by astral themes. The album invites the listener to join a fantasy universe created by the simple power of music. This music is clearly ambient - and cinematic - but also dark and mysterious. The tracks are diversified and sometimes feature surprising passages such as Decay Instability for its furious bass line sequence and Acid Clavi 2110, which sounds as being…
Eleven Minarets
**300 copies** Previously released as part of Arab Quarter by Soleilmoon back in 1996, 11 Minarets, is a focused exploration on one theme which allowed Bryn Jones to push the boundaries of his music deep into new areas. As on his other albums released at around the same time, the volume is pushed to the limit. With this album, Muslimgauze continued to define his own genre, and without a doubt there simply were no imitators, wannabes or pretenders. The artwork for this album contains elements of …
Salaam Alekum, Bastard
**CD version, 300 copies** Issued on Ukraine-via-Berlin label Kvitnu, for whom the release has an extra political resonance - outlined below - Salaam Alekum, Bastard is a prime example of Bryn Jones aka Muslimgauze’s strongheld political worldview, near-wordlessly wrapped up in billowing nocturnal desert-scape pads and some of his most hypnotic, serpentine percussion. Check for intoxicating highlights in the swingeing syncopation of the title tune, the ravishing ambient dubbing of Hebron Massacr…
Syntetisaattori Musiikkia Kuopiosta
**500 copies** Syntetisaattori Musiikkia Kuopiosta is the second solo work of Ilpo Väisänen under his own name since 2001’s Asuma. 180g black vinyl record inlayed into high quality 5-color printed heavy cardboard envelope with additional golden hot foil pressing. Finnish experimental producer Ilpo Väisänen, formerly of the legendary duo Pan Sonic, made Syntetisaattori Musiikkia Kuopiosta as the second album he's crafted under his own name, after 2001's Mego-issued Asuma. (He also released a full…
Ephemeral
**White vinyl** Mingle keeps moving forward: right after Static and its apparent calm, Ephemeral, the brand new album, gets released. This marks Mingle's second effort on Kvitnu (part of a four-chapter series which includes Movements and Masks, both released on Tannen Records). The ingredients remain the same: an introspective and melancholic journey, winding through static minimalism, aggressive landscapes, refined harmonies and disturbing rhythms."Pure advanced psychedelic sound flow. A perfec…
A Single Point of Light
**Limited Edition of 150 copies on pink vinyl** "A Single Point of Light is Ben Shemie’s second solo LP and the follow up to A Skeleton, which was released with Hands in the Dark in early 2019. While the frontman of Canadian band Suuns gave us a cold, experimental sort of pop with his first album, centered around the idea of a genderless, raceless character, this record focuses on the perception of light, both figuratively and literally. The way it is created, moves and breaks apart, how we can …
A Prison Of Measured Time
**CD version, to be released in late June 2020** Recorded at Creek house, Swanyard and Bushmead studio in 1995-1998. "In 1995 and before I was employed to take tracks home and manipulate the streams to create new content. The way I did this was a process I called “Rate/Stretch, I won’t go into details, but it was very successful at creating whole new content. From these experiments came the “scorn“ dreamspace mix, and much of Black Light District. After we came back from New Orleans working on t…
DeeWee Sessions Vol. 01
**180gr LP + 48-page book in a clear PVC bag, to be released in early June 2020** "David & Stephen Dewaele (aka Soulwax/2manydjs) have always been fascinated by collecting instruments and recording gear. Their passion hasn’t been born by completism: simply every new item inspires a world of possibilities. The one item that always eluded them was the EMS Synthi 100 —a huge and rare analogue synthesizer, of which there were only 31 ever produced, that can create a near infinite array of sounds.Sho…
Factitious Airs
Can a music made with the modern tools of digital music and contemporary production sound eerily as if created with the same equipment that Stockhausen, Henri and Berio all availed themselves of in the radio studios of the '50s and '60s – and yet sound bright and fresh to the ears of today's listeners? Robert Worby shows us how, with "Factitious Airs". — Carl Stone
Return of Black September
The excellent Black September, a continuous, five-part, 68-minute epic, is as formidably competent as ever, although more for the brooding, surreal nature of its soundworld than for its grooves, which here sound almost subsidiary. The soul samples and restlessly evolving minor-chord kaleidoscopes that unfold throughout the work is prima facie evidence of a musician on a roll. Boldly named after one of the most notorious Palestinian terrorist organizations, the group which carried out the Israeli…
