Moyens Fantômes
Limited edition of 200 hand-numbered copies. All include an additional art card on 300gr satin-paper. Packaged in clear vinyl sleeve with folded insert. With the obsolescence of storing and reproducing media devices, a lot of information becomes unavailable and inaccessible but does it mean it has ceased to exist as information? What happens with a film whose last copy is in Beta tape when it can no longer be reproduced? On the second semester of 2014 Bruno Duplant and David Vélez started to dia…
Fallow Memory
Limited edition of 200 hand-numbered copies. All include an additional art card on 300gr satin-paper. Packaged in clear vinyl sleeve with folded insert. These abandoned ruins of the seventeenth century are located along a path that I often walk on, uphill, in silence, alone. Not exactly on the path but hidden, deeper into the woods, that place lies parallel to the path that leads to the top of a hill. Even if I do not go (necessarily, every time) inside, that place beyond attracts like a magnet,…
Night Swimmer
Limited edition of 200 hand-numbered copies. All include an additional art card on 300gr satin-paper. Packaged in clear vinyl sleeve with folded insert. ‘Night Swimmer’ is created from field-recordings of nocturnal swims and paddles made during the summer of 2013 in Ontario’s Georgian Bay. As evening would fade into night, the athropophony and biophony tended to become muted; this resulted in a significantly increased signal to noise ratio, or what acoustic ecologist R Murray Schafer describes a…
Nýey
In 1963, off the coast of Iceland, an island emerged after an underwater volcanic eruption, a rare event that occurs on average twice a century. It was given the name Surtsey, after Surtr, the fire giant of Norse mythology. The surface of this new land grew after further eruptions until June 1967 when it had reached 2.65 square kilometers in size and poked 175 meters out of the sea. Surtsey has been an object of research as no other territory has been before, since it bares the unique possibilit…
Moonutatud Muundused / Distorted Conversions
Moonutatud Muundused / Distorted Conversions can be seen as an auditive synthesis of Kris Kuldkepp’s various musical activities over the last few years. Comprising a 40-minute exploration of musical entanglements, the album explores the double bass as a solo instrument with a rich timbre quality guiding the musical journey, being simultaneously not always visible or discernible. The double bass is like a trickster, taking many different forms over the course of the musical journey; its pure deep…
Palepoli
* Deluxe LP reissue on 180 gr. Clear Red vinyl * Third album, and Osanna best one, "Palepoli", from 1973 sees the band at their peak. The album only contains three long tracks and is housed in a nice gatefold whose inner picture is based on the band live stage background. 18 minutes of sheer heavy progdom is 'Oro Caldo', a raw jambalaya of moody atmosphere, experimental samplings, greasy garage dirt, and some flat out classic symphonic prog with a great-sounding mellotron - and other unique and…

Nonzigo
Anma Ott is excited to announce the debut LP of Spemakh, a six-piece surprisemusic-group from across Germany (Saarbrücken, Nürnberg, Berlin, Bonn). Drawing from all corners of the compositional sphere, from free-jazz to serialism and concrète, and using a wide range of homemade and custombuilt wind and percussion instruments, as well as viola, doublebass, voice-noise, guitar, objects and miniature electronics, the band is aiming for a radical play with uncertainty, involving humour, gesture an…
Mellow Toes
"Mellow Toes comes as the second excerpt from my Schnarcharchiv (snoring-collection). This growing collection contains audio-recordings of sleeping humans, friends, and animals in all places and states of rest, sleep and nap, captured during night- and daytime since 2009. It all started during my daily afternoon-naps when I observed my own body getting hyper-sound-sensitive on its way to sleep. In these situations my chest, my arms, my toes turned out to become my biggest ears. It made me search…
Reverse Diverse
** Edition of 200 ** An album of sublime workmanship, developed by one of the finest Italian artists in that experimental context in the broadest sense that Fabio Orsi has explored over the years in every direction, with the uncommon ability to always go 'beyond', renewing himself, seeking new sounds and new forms of expression, without ever completely abandoning the 'main' path from which he began his long journey many years ago. In this Reverse Diverse, the artist combines sounds and musical o…
becoming in shadows ~ of being touched
It's hard to parse exactly what you're listening to when you immerse yourself in Jason Doell's new recording, Becoming In Shadows ~ Of Being Touched. The old adage about never judging a book by its cover may often hold true but somehow Xuan Ye's beautiful design speaks volumes about both the sonics and structure of this bewildering document by the Toronto-based composer and sound artist. Though the imagery is blatantly computer-generated, it's rife with references to vegetation, bones, water, an…
Solid State Memories

Congo Guitar
Vumbi and the guitar go back a long time. Born with polio in the Kivu province of North Eastern Congo, Vumbi grew up in a Swedish missionary home and picked up the guitar at an early age. Listening intently to the radio, he learned the style and rhythms of Rumba and Soukous from the giants of the Congolese guitar sound, Dr Nico and Franco. "Listening and playing Soukous music makes you feel happy to be alive and you just have to dance to it no matter what". In the early 80’s Vumbi emigrated to T…
Hallucinating Loss
In Hallucinating Loss, composer William Fowler Collins presents one hell of a cinematic record. Through a sweeping grandeur and telescoped gestures, he offers a poignant and powerful meditation on grief, loss, and sorrow. Completed before the 2020 pandemic besieged the US, this is an album that presages the conditions of anguish that many have felt throughout this very difficult season.
For this album, Collins furthers the connectivity between film and sound by recruiting his friends and colleag…
The Shell That Speaks The Sea
"I first met David Toop some 20 years ago. I think we were in touch shortly before that, but our first meeting took place when I invited him to Australia to perform and to speak as part of REV, a festival held at Brisbane Powerhouse. It was a memorable meeting, I vividly remember his solo performance and the edition A Picturesque View, Ignored, documents an improvised meeting during that time. Over the years, David and I have shared an interest in both the material and immaterial implications of…
Of Which One Knows
Of Which One Knows is a collection of works by Natalie Beridze that sit outside the easy categorisation of ‘al-bum’. They are of course, an album, but they are more than that, in that they represent a kind of multiplicity in sound, an accumulation of experience, of emotion, of life, transposed into sound. It is only together that the stories that sit between them might start to be assembled. Spanning a decade and a half, these works chart a trajectory of investigation and curiosity that charts t…
