Lux
Another foggy day in Yorkshire. A steel grey sky. Raindrops tracing one another down the windowpane. Kirk Barley sits in his studio and assembles compositions from scraps of found sound and live instrumentation. Melodies swell, withdraw and repeat like waves. Time slows. Accelerates. Slows again. The light bends, tweaked at the edges. Twisted by rhythms that never quite resolve.
Written, recorded and produced by Barley in Yorkshire in early 2024, Lux picks up where 2023 LP Marionette leaves off,…
Air de repos (Breathworks)
A double vinyl and a catalogue that constitute a proper extension of the exhibition with which the Capc in Bordeaux continues to question the forms that the museum can take (here transformed into a temporary breathing assistance machine) by developing the idea of the exhibition as an atmosphere, with the aim of creating a renewed awareness of what it means to breathe, not only on an individual level, but also on a collective one, at a time when the world is living in a climate of generalized asp…
In De Verte, Dit Uitzicht
'In de verte, dit uitzicht’ is Abel Ghekiere's second album. It is a celebration of beauty and sudden bursts of euphoria and melancholy, hidden in the distinctive soft and fragile sound of Ghekiere's music. Much more personal than on his debut record, he calls out to the world.Working with voice samples and field recordings, voice and improvisation take centre stage. Sounds from outside are subtly interwoven with instruments, while conversations and memories act as a thread running through the c…

2025 stock ** "Second full-lenght release by German sound-poet and writer Michael Barthel on Tochnit Aleph. A 60-minute piece recited from memory. Recorded April 2018 straight to tape without overdubs. Raw, unsettling, poetically incorrect. “Halber Pogo (half a pogo) is a 60 minute recording in which scripted text-pieces are recited from memory. The selection of the pieces is left up to the moment, as much as how much content of each piece is remembered; along with their actually determined pron…

Fans For Fans
*200 copies limited edition* A 'monolithic' experiment in extremely minimal non-music constructed in two long parts. If the first part is dominated by a background based on a single sound rich in harmonics that oscillates on its own wave-like vibrations, resting on a substrate of what can be at the same time a synthetic pink noise or the real 'capture' of a natural quasi-silence, in the second part a few sounds of a more overtly electric/electronic matrix, a tangle of faint high-pitched looped e…
Métro Pré Saint-Gervais
2025 stock ** "On July 10th 2001, Guionnet (alto sax), Warburton (violin) and La Casa (microphones) explored the acoustics of the Pré Saint Gervais Metro station in Paris, riding the elevators, taking the stairs, experimenting real-time music in daily life. A reference, between site-specific improvisation and sound art."
Force Over Area
*300 copies limited edition* On Force over Area, Yves De Mey combines slow and ominous melodies with stripped rhythms and acidic bass lines. Over the course of the album, Force over Area becomes a spatial construction with sounds bouncing off the walls, various elements trying to find a way in and air turning into liquid. After all, Force over Area means pressure. The 7 tracks are slowly paced, leaving time and space for continuous modulation of elements and parameters. The album’s freeform fits…

Five Minutes To Self-Destruct
On this EP, Schlagwerk motorist Hubert Zemler and Schaltwerk operator Felix Kubin unflinchingly follow the guideline for syncopated sequencer escalation: ‘Pulsate - Vibrate - Alternate’. The German-Polish duo have filtered out five previously unreleased tracks from live recordings in Warsaw, Geneva and Rotterdam, which have been remixed by Warsaw sound engineer Jan Wroński. Their unbridled live energy can hardly be reproduced in the studio. All the pieces gather in their DNA the paranoid plasma …
Dark Country
*2024 stock* Dark Country is the first collaboration between Stockholm-based experimental musicians Jon Collin and Niclas Anderstedt Lindgren. On Dark Country you have the familiar echoes from Collin`s post-bluesy attack on strings, but this time accompanied with a considerable amount of speaker crackle and Lindgren`s clever yet reticent sound sculpting. All the sounds you`ll hear on Dark Country are created by live guitar improvisations and electronic processing thereof.
Every Dog Has His Day
The two works which comprise this retrospective release project - "Plan for Sleep” (1984) and "Every Dog Has His Day” (1985) - are collaborations between Yamanaka and Furuhashi which were foundational to the music development of Dumb Type's aural legacy and intermedia innovations at large. Their early stage music possessed a unique charm and innovation, serving as an essential element at the core of their art. Through this project, the legacy of these works is to be re-evaluated, and the essence…
Plan For Sleep
In the performance of this work, "Plan for Sleep" (1986), created simultaneously with “Every Dog Has His Day” (1985), Yamanaka took on the role of sound operation. The performance begins with a minimal piece where the tones of the electronic organ and striking phrases from the piano and saxophone race forward in syncopation. Following this, various sound fragments drift over a deafening industrial beat reminiscent of machine noises. There are also pieces that transform the typing sounds of a typ…
Doppelmoppel
*200 copies limited edition* The story of this record starts in 2011 on Anna Clementi’s balcony in Rome. Her long time musical collaborator Thomas Stern is reading a poetry book by famous German MERZ/DADA-artist Kurt Schwitters (Ur-Sonate, Anna Blume) which belonged to Anna’s father, Italian composer Aldo Clementi (1925-2011). Stern and Clementi are immediately attracted and fascinated by the power of the poetry. The poems in this book ignite the decade-long artistic research of the duo.

In Softening Air
Relaxer follows up the eerie, floating vistas of 2022's "Force Field: A Guide for the Perplexed" with the mercurial, poetic descent "In Softening Air.” Combining spoken word with spacious, enveloping sound design, this album spelunks into moist, mossy, fleshy crevices of the psyche. We cannot help but to meet ourselves in dreams. Sorrows & lamentations, shit talking, punk rock, apps, phlegm, studies in depth psychology, rat piss - it's all here, presented in a gentle, loving tableau, and recited…
Shallow Buoy
Mangled surf-rock samples and washed-up suds of everyday oddities define Shallow Buoy, the newest release from remote duo Stumped. Consisting of Berlin-based Page Swanson and Pennsylvania-confined Adam Buffington, Stumped strain field recordings and borrowed sounds through various analogue and electronic processes, resulting in a sonic puree that's never stodgy.
