Angelo Bignamini is a musician and sound artist from Italy. His musical research focuses its attention on the relationship between sound and its deterioration. For this purpose he uses analogue devices (especially tape recorders and feedback) as the main tools for manipulating digital sound. He recently returned to the acoustic guitar as an implement for inner investigation through improvisation on open tunings. His works are published by independent labels all around the world.

Limited split LP, black vinyl in poly-lined inner sleeve. Edition of 500 units Trigram for Earth, by Flora Yin Wong, is inspired by traditional eight-sided Pakua mirrors and the trigrams inscribed on each of their edges. The function of the mirrors is to show the nature of reality as being composed of mutually opposing forces and modulate them. Here, energies seem to be manipulated to guide and direct our listening, lost in a maze of sound, diffracted to the point of merging with the artist's o…
Tip! *200 copies limited release* "Soplo" is the debut solo album from Berlin-based Mexican multimedia artist, sound designer, and DJ, Daniela Huerta -- and a true thing of beauty it is. A hallucinatory array of vaporous atmospheres, illusory rhythms, vanishing voices, and evocative environmental recordings, "Soplo" (Spanish for 'breath') ruminates on the enduring resonance of storytelling. Huerta places an interest in mythology at the center of her practice, using it as a springboard to explore…

*17 copies limited edition* L3NR$ is a game of hide and seek. A furious zig zag ride through dimensions, harmonies and sounds. Born from a wide arsenal of sources, kaleidoscopic tape cutups and self build electronic instruments to more drone heavy passages played on the majestic 3 meter high. Spectral organ, secretly kept in a inconspicuous kitchen in Berlin Neukölln. It is nothing but a magical trip to the unknown - not for the faint-hearted.
"The creative process, a means by which creative work finds its way into realization, has consistently reconfigured its basic principles as the content of art has evolved. The choices we make, the decisions that make sense to us, reveal our nature and our passion to assemble the things we wish to share with others as an experience. We are offered a number, as a title for this recording, which we have seen before and we'll see once more, as Christian Wolfarth releases this second of three chapter…
Crumbling tape loops, broken glass sounds, micro-cassette feedback and songs for piano, voice and guitar sit side by side on this uniquely tender release by Danish artist Franciska. Submitted to the label on a cassette sent via mail with typewritten credits, 'Modfase' is masterfully restrained, constructed with a care and gentleness that's hard to find in today's "ambient" and "experimental" music circles. Each side contains multiple pieces which quickly shift between musique concrete, tape musi…
Big Tip! Varder is a new LP-series dedicated to unearthing early Norwegian electronic music. When this new form of music began to spread in the 1950s, it required large studios with expensive equipment, and the outcome was often considered not commercial enough for record labels to venture into. But despite the meagre means, Norwegian composers threw themselves into new sonic adventures such as electroacoustics, musique concrète and computer music, travelling to studios in Norway, Sweden, Poland…

Asmus Tietchens is a sound artist and composer from Hamburg, Germany. He got interested in Musique Concrete by listening to a German radio programme when he was 10 years old. In 1965, at the age of 18, Asmus started experimenting with tape loops and turned them into musical collages. Soon, the use of synthesizers was added. In 1980 his debut album Nachtstücke was released, produced by Peter Baumann of Tangerine Dream. This was soon followed by a series of albums of electronic pop music for the S…
"While the Cave might still be creaking open, the grey memories of the two sessions from the 19-tape run of the Grave Prog sub-series, from which “Open Cave Mouth” lurked, are fading fast. A couple of standout points from that period include: Ferndale Life, the first Woodland House after the move from Lansing, right next to where Meg from Gories' brother lived. Transition from Dunn Blueprinting on Eight Mile (where the cover images for both tapes were drawn and printed on the clock) to an uber-s…
*300 copies limited edition* "Jenseits der Wand" is the latest CD-release by Berlin-based multi-disciplinary artists Daniela Fromberg and Stefan Roigk, which results from two walk-in sound installations, which were realized in 2021 and 2022.
While one focuses on the diverse acoustic dimension of urban life with all its obscure and often indecipherable noises behind your own four walls, the other deals with the specific soundscape of a recycling center, which is created from the supposedly worthl…
*2024 stock* Laure Boer is Kashual again. And not so Plastik. Zoning dark-ish into her inner realms of journey music. Poetic, psychic, reflective, ejective. She sings. Weeps. Speaks. Intimate looping narratives, celebrating personal glories and all those worries. Stylistically alternating from electroacoustic dimensions to drone guitar amp personas, from folk melodiousness to witchy avant-notes. Ten drifters for the Lomaxed creatures, earthbound, and always up there in the luminaries. Music that…
