Kein Mitleid
Originally released in the late 1970s, Mureedil by Tonton Macoute stands as a singular statement in the French experimental tradition. The group weaves together repetitive, trance-like rhythms, spoken word, and electronic interventions, creating a sound that is both hypnotic and unsettling. The music is marked by its willingness to embrace both the structured and the chaotic, with lengthy instrumental passages giving way to bursts of surreal poetry and unexpected sonic detours.
Influenced by th…
Three:four Split Series Volume 3
2025 Stock. Last copies. Annelies Monseré always has had the urge to record many versions of one song and then remaining deeply in doubt which version to choose. For this release, she did not chose. (Though this is not completely true - there are still more versions of the song - including an a cappella version) She was interested in how different arrangements, tempo's, melodies and structures changed the expressive and aesthetic qualities of the song, convinced that no version is more 'essentia…

Abstract Forms
**300 copies** Abstract Forms is a selection of rare as yet unreleased in any physical format Sandro Brugnolini recordings from the late '80s and early '90s. The sixteen electronic tracks were produced for television background use or synchronization and, thanks to their great intensity and suspense, are still perfect to be scored in any number of thriller sequences, connecting smooth jazz memoirs filtered with machines overplayed on videogame sounding backgrounds. The majority of these experime…
Valvole (LP)
Ugo Busoni's “Valvole” is a classic example of the so-called library music records released in Italy (as in the rest of the world) in order to provide 'background music' to be used in the editing of news broadcasts, radio and newsreels. These were records made by highly experienced composers and musicians who, in a very short time and with limited or non-existent budgets, had to make music to be synchronized to images. For obvious reasons, they had to be tracks of short duration, characterized b…
Les Cités Englouties
*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…
En Perpetua
The Madrid duo of Pablo Mirón and Juan Vacas return for their second album 'En Perpetua' as they dive further into their decayed collage and psycho-acoustic-geography. While they remain in similar sonic territory to 'En Perpetua’s' predecessor, 'Of No Fixed Abode', the pair lean into newfound confidence in their process, and the endless possibilities from a new Madrid studio. They employ a selection of instruments including violin, harmonica, voices, guitars, a looper, an FM radio and field reco…
Arruda, Alfazema E Guiné
Immersed in the encounters of Afro-Brazilian cultures and in the influences of yoga philosophy, Brazilian singer-songwriter Alvaro Lancellotti drew inspiration to create his new album: “Arruda, Alfazema e Guiné”. The songs merge the spiritual and musical realms as fundamental elements of its conception, yet remaining free from any fixed aesthetic.
With a percussive strength connected to its sound, “Arruda, Alfazema e Guiné” was released by the American label Amor in Sound, led by Mario Caldato…

Syne Vuyle Hoeck
*300 copies limited edition* The Ghentian skyline has low peaks and hides its horrors in full view ~ walk streamside and you’ll quickly be confronted with façades that leer with their tales and secrets, the angels and demons that built this city holding up its mortar and stone in an inextricable embrace.

Hold The Sound (Book)
144, printed in offset. Artist Book. Can you hold a sound? This book experiments with giving tangible form to something seemingly immaterial. Within these pages, you will find a collection of thoughts on sound gathered by artists and researchers, each attempting to grasp sound’s fleeting nature through verbal and visual expressions. What are auditories? The plural of “auditory” emphasizes that there is no one way of hearing, and that hearing is not an isolated activity. For the inaugural present…
