When the Distance is Blue
'When the Distance is Blue' is Macie Stewart’s International Anthem debut. The Chicago-based multi-instrumentalist, composer, and improviser describes the collection as “a love letter to the moments we spend in-between”—a letter realized via an intentional return to piano, her first instrument and the origin of her creative expression. Here Stewart creates a striking and cinematic work through collages of prepared piano, field recordings, and string quartet compositions, one that gives shape to …

Hanging By A Fan Over Wet Cement
*2025 stock* "Hanging by a Fan Over Wet Cement is the music of listening after listening, when water runs relative to the sound of your own footsteps, and you lean over the resonating chamber of a trashcan like it’s a campfire, then fill it with wheezy laughter. Only, the steel mesh of Hair Clinic/Max Nordile’s field microphone is all mangled and bludgeoned, and the field extends into his home garage. The same contact-foraging quality of attention goes into the beginner’s brain improvisations, w…

Tête de Chou
*350 copies limited edition* An’archives are proud to announce the release of the debut album by Tête de Chou, the trio of Mark Anderson, Kurumi Kido, and Arlo Wynks. Some may know Anderson for his membership of Greymouth, 番長Taste, Mysteries Of Love, and Suishou No Fune; Kido and Wynks have more personal, sporadic musical histories, which informs the intimacy and gently exploratory nature of the eight pieces contained here. The trio’s movements seem spontaneous and open-ended, which makes sense …
Live at Opus 40
*100 copies limited edition* ⎤⎤⎤, the duo of Chantal Michelle and Grace Villamil, are interested in what they term "sound obliteration"—a paradoxical process that, in their hands, reveals teeming masses of sonic detail. The pair works in a variety of modes, including composition, installation, and performance. Live at Opus 40 begins with machinic drones that expand and dissolve into the warm, open-air environment where it was recorded, initially anchored by the site's rock formations. The piece …

It is a magical collection of 23 edits for voice, field recordings, theremin and piano. Cats’ recorded piano rehearsals and singing sketches reminds us of Cornelius Cardew works.

A melody line from Debussy passes by. Waves crash in the distance. Sails and f…
Colli Di Pedona
2003 release ** ""Based on a series of field recordings taken during a Tuscany stage of the Giro D'Italia 2002, The Colli di Pedona Tapes is probably the most psychedelic release to date from this fascinating Welsh duo. After a series of albums on the Ochre label that established them as one of new rising forces from the UK underground, Colli di Pedona is a slightly different take on their trademark sound: languid, luminous ambient tracks melt into minimal drones (the aptly titled 'Vortex'), whi…

Blue braki place along
New alias from Alexander Holm. A strangely private sounding document of humming voice, midi harp, feedback and ghostly field recordings. Truly unclassifiable music.
For Translucence
The debut album from Whitney Johnson & Lia Kohl has evolved over several years from their initial practice of free improvisation on viola and cello into (for the moment), this: a neophonic orchestral expression. At once stimulating and soothing, For Translucence is a living, breathing meditation in which layers of acoustic strings, synthesizers, field recordings, radio and sine waves illuminate each other as they twine and grow.
Thauma
Big Hands is the alias of Andrea Ottomani, an Italian-born, London-based artist, whose productions have maintained an impeccable level of homogeneity over the last decade. His debut album, titled Thauma, was conceived in dreams over two consecutive nights as he traversed the storm-ridden Mediterranean Sea in late June 2024 and was later brought to life with the intent of preserving the sounds and structures as they were originally dreamt. Composed of ten tracks that seamlessly morph into one ano…
