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.
*44 copies limited edition* "We met R Moro for the first time in December 2022, when we had the chance to share the Spettro stage in Brescia. We didn't know each other before and he totally grabbed us with his concert, a dreamy long suite that kept him busy shifting between keyboards, electric guitar, and electronic rythms. After another killer show at Troglobatem Festival 2023 we asked him some material for a release, and about an year later the music reached us.
This tape is R Moro's first r…
The first transmission from forthcoming Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan's new album, "Your Community Hub"
"A Shared Sense of Purpose" looks at the small community centres that helped Runcorn become a five minute city, long before the current discussion about fifteen minute cities. The idea that the larger town would be divided into smaller centres, each with a set of facilities at the heart, and designed to be within five minutes walk of anyone’s front door. It looks at the faciliti…
An anonymous collection of imagined Devotional Musics commissioned by Dramatic over the last two years. Listeners are briefed just as the original artists apparently were: 13 'Invisible Cities' and an accompanying 'belief statement' of appropriate enigma.
"Their City Tessellates Infinitely""Their God Is Ugly""No Two Chants Can Repeat" (repeat until unimaginably portentous…)
These 'songs' play out like the products of a delirious ethnography. Their palette, all deranged chorales and Globalisch in…

*300 copies limited edition* In 2021, Wilfried Wendling offered a 3-day residency to Marion Camy-Palou at the Muse en Circuit (Alfortville / Paris), a working time which then has evolved into a 2-year cruise dedicated to the Serge Modular System (offered by Jean Claude Eloy at the Muse). This search finally resulted in a concert in April 2023, and this record - Deeat Palace's debut album. 'Pièces pour Serge' offers two intense pieces, cut in 45 rpm for vinyl to allow a deeper sonic dive into the…
A Bla tape by this fantastic Dutch soundpoet G.J. de Rook who worked with Greta Monach, Ulises Carrion, Michael Gibbs, Bernard Heidsieck, Henry Chopin, Hans Clavin and many others - he was active as visual poet in the years 1970-1975. He was co-editor of the magazine ‘Bloknoot’ (1968-1981). In 1975-1976 he organized the exhibition ‘International Visual Poetry’ (Utrecht, Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Brussels).
He claims to originate from a parallel universe and be in possession of alien technology that he uses to create self-discovery music for your listening pleasure. Introducing Tomo with his Mini CD single Plays - a love letter to the sound of the 80s Yamaha synths & drum machines and Fostex tape-recorders in a cosmos-peppered stylistic blender. The album was recorded directly to the 4-track cassette recorder. We gave up with describing this music, but perhaps the way Tomo classifies it could help:…

*300 copies limited edition* Polish composer and sound artist Robert Piotrowicz presents his first work for Penultimate Press, one which outlines an uncanny sound world with a series of fictional organ pieces. Whilst resembling a pipe organ alongside other acoustic sources all material is strictly synthetic. The impression of air being swept through the bellows… false. The spatial organisation suggesting it was recorded in large physical space, false! The long middle solo passage in Noumen must…
The new album from 400 Lonely Things, produced by William Basinski, is a dark ambient, sample-based séance to the Banning Mill -- a real-life decaying "mansion" and haven for artists, freaks, and misfits in the backwoods of the American Deep South in the 1970s-1990s -- and an extraordinary piece of art that lived there. An archaeological excursion in found sound -- wandering through the art and memory of a real place, Mother Moon is an origin story for 400 Lonely Things. In the '90s, Craig Varia…
