Thames
Thames presents diverse sound interactions along the River Thames that surprise with their musicality. As we travel from central London to the river’s furthest estuary, it feels like we’re travelling back in time. We hear the sounds of nature and industry in competition, from the pitched, quasi-musical sound of Tower Bridge lifting up, to the marsh frogs of Allhallows.
...The New Humanity
RIYL: Sounds emanating from a dimly lit basement, watching science documentaries on mute, mumbled conversations on a subway train, self-taught circular breathing techniques, etc. Stunning!
Antonin Artaud
**100 copies** In hardbound embossed special package (like previous edition in this series), numbered & signed. The work of Antonin Artaud (1896-1948), the French dramatist, poet, essayist, actor, and theatre director, was a great inspiration and stimulant for me when I started out as a vocal performer. His pioneering writings on theatre gave me the freedom to venture much further into madness on stage, while still being perceived as authentic and powerful. In Artaud’s French writings short frag…

Self-care (Special edition)
Visionary, challenging and beautiful, pushing the potentiality of organized sound incrementally ahead, Vanessa Rossetto's 'Self-care' is unquestionably one of the most engaging releases we've heard so far this year. A bristling expanse of environmental texture and incident, slowing building across its duration into a moody sonic space of startling psychological depth.

Italienische Stucke
**Edition of 300. Also available as a 50 copies special Art edition** Sound is almost always at its most thrilling, whether in practice or source, when it can not be easily defined. This is the liminal zone within which only the bravest and most ambitious among the avant-garde dare to tread, constantly pushing forward into unexplored zones which are yet to be claimed by the known. Of those artists who have taken on such a task, it is hard to call to mind any as important as the German composer, …
Siberia / Sirens
Two incredible sonic artworks by Susanne Skog’s work within sound art and composition has its roots in narrative art forms, experimental radio, radio drama and documentaries. Her artwork evolves from her own recordings from around the world, sonic material which she turns into new shapes and expressions, frictions and correlations, often considering movements and spatialisation as a vital element. Siberia is based on recordings from a 205 hour / 9288 kilometer trip by train from Moscow to Vladiv…

Vampir-Cuadecuc
**130 copies. Art Edition** Carles Santos was a multi-disciplinary artist, perhaps best known outside of Spain as a composer of scores for his lifelong collaborator, radical Catalan filmmaker Pere Portabella. Made in 1970 during the final years of Franco’s dictatorship, Vampir-Cuadecuc is an astonishingly creative assault on the regime and, arguably, Portabella’s most influential work. Filmed behind the scenes during the production of Jesús Franco’s Count Dracula (1970), Vampir-Cuadecuc is a hig…
Liri Sm
Liri SM is a word play between ‘liri’, the Albanian form for ‘freedom’, and ‘SM’, the widely used short form for ‘sadomasochism’ (which is a paradox of freedom). They melt together in the form of ‘lyricism’ (lirismo in Italian). Yet the first letters of ‘SM’ also hint at the Italian form ‘senza male’ (without harm, innocuous). The idea is to explore the concept of freedom as something that sometimes scares, or rather terrorizes, petrifies people. Our daily freedoms are often a form of content, a…

Rodhaette/Ruinmusik
Two previously unreleased works from the late Danish composer, musician, publisher, artist, and Fluxus actionist Henning Christiansen. "Rødhætte" (1985) is a rendition of Little Red Riding Hood featuring Ursula Reuter Christiansen as narrator. All the hallmarks of Henning's unique approach to music/sound appear as the tale goes deeper into the depths of animalistic frenzy. "Ruinmusic" (1984) inhabits the last breath off the piano housed within the former Marienborg Manor. Prior to the destru…
