A Cloud of Light
‘A Cloud Of Light’ is the fourth album in the David Jackman / Organum Electronics release series on Die Stadt, and the first under his own name. The work sees him returning to calmer fields of sound which could already be heard on the acclaimed D. Jackman ‘Herbstsonne’ (DS119) from 2019, and the following Jackman ‘Silence In That Time’ (DS123) from 2020. Again the sounds of Tampura, Organ, Piano, Bells and Crows are the chosen sound sources, overlaid and structured to form a tapestry of shifting…
Noughwhere
Organum Electronics ‘Noughwhere’ is the third OE album for Die Stadt, and could almost be seen as a culmination of all previous OE albums in terms of denseness and intensity. Like with all these works it’s a return to the electronic sounds David Jackman already created at the very beginning of his Organum project about 40 years ago. Similar sets of particular sound sources, arranged in a variety of permutations and combinations, and a variety of structures, to create a range of variations. They …
Inside Richard Serra Sculptures

Over the album's forty-minute duration, listeners can experience a blend of field recordings made by Pedro Vian at the DIA Bacon Foundation, specifically inside Richard Serra's sculptures. These recordings are interwoven with the ambient percussion and melodies characteristic of Vian's work, alongside the piercing and sharp frequencies produced by Merzbow, one of the most acclaimed a…

Phant[as]

During these performances, there was a rapid succession o…

Permeated with deep esoteric meanings we are graced by slowly evolving cinematic soundspaces and ritualistic atmospheres. Spectral incantations floating in the ether, sensory sacraments that develops gradually and are interspersed with thick dramatic swells. The title track features vocal appea…
Recoiled
“Recoiled” is a rambunctious alchemy, of magikal Coil sensibilities and hi-tech home circa 90’s mixing technique, all fused in the cave-like early studios of Danny Hyde (Coil, Electric Sewer Age) / Peter Christopherson (Coil, Throbbing Gristle). These were the unrestrained Pre- big studio- mix downs, of four songs which long time Coil admirer / collaborator Trent Reznor requested Coil to remix. Reznor sent over the original multi-tracks and DATs to Hyde / Christopherson, who independently mixed …

The Absurd Silence Of A Mute World
*300 copies limited edition* Initiated at the beginning of the year 2022, Olomuhd is a shared vision bringing together multi-instrumentalists Samuel Vaney (Cortez, Muhd, Fargue) and long time collaborator Loïc Grobety (OLO, Convulsif). Sharing a common passion for abrasive textures, deconstructed rhythms, enveloping and dense layers, this album, presented as a single track, is a distinct entity, an ageless and lush exploration, at times contemplative and airy, at times impetuous and massive. It …
Ginnungagaldr
New opus from the ever enigmatic ritual act Undirheimar. Ginnungagaldr is the result of over 3 years of contemplative, ritual and shamanic based work centered on the uncreated primordial nothingness of pre-creational chaos. Not inspired by the lore, but through personal experience, which, in fact, differs in certain aspects from the already established and published work. There is not one unique path. There are countless streams flowing toward the vast black ocean, the source. Just as there are …
Modus Vivendi
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Sweden's enigmatic musician Marcus Lönebrink returns after a long hiatus with his follow-up to the highly acclaimed album "Akrasia" (Cyclic Law 2007). "Modus Vivendi" continues his introspective sonic pilgrimage into the vast terrain residing in the intermissions between failure and salvation. Contemplation of stasis as a way of life leads into a paradox: beneath the dormant surface of fossilised and frozen inner landscapes, underlying movement continues …
The Folly Of Mars
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* With “The Folly of Mars”, their fourth full album (and second for Cyclic Law), Tony Young and Andreas Davids explore man’s desire to conquer outer space at all cost; regardless of the more pressing issues that should be first resolved on their home planet.

Climate change is…

The Mute Fortress
*60 copies limited edition* Francisco Meirino's The Mute Fortress plays with the time and space of its sound materials.
He expands, unfolds and unwinds the ghostly voices that circulate in a jigsaw puzzle of sequences that the mind assembles as it sees fit.

Sparse percussion, distant sirens, dry impacts: muffled rhythms coupled with abrupt textures give birth to eight instantaneous moments of diabolical efficiency and finesse.
13.13
Recorded in Los Angeles in 1982, 13.13 exists as document to the pandemonium of specters and potential serial killers who twisted the California Dream into a waking nightmare as they snaked through the boulevards, back yards and basements of a sun stroked paradise turning into a blood soaked inferno of fear, paranoia, panic and lust killings. Lush musical textures provided by members of seminal art punks The Weirdos - Dix Denney, Cliff Martinez and Greg Williams create a hypnotic backdrop to Lun…
