Tentacles
The artist group Augenstern (Christiane Prehn and Wolfgang Meyer) have lived and worked on the ship Anuschka for many years. In July 2014 the MS Anuschka left Berlin in the direction of Paris before reaching their final destination in the south of France in November 2014. On the way, the crew examined numerous bridges, spanning rivers and canals. Using tentacles installed on board to scratch the bridges, the ship turned into a sensitive, perceiving and sounding laboratory interacting with the te…
Landscapes of Fear

The well cared for, wavy green of a golf course in the front, two people dressed predominantly in white standing on the lawn, one of them is about to swing the gol…

Growth
*200 copies limited edition CD in 6-panel digisleeve* "This is, by far, the most emotionally moving album I've made in my life so far. I mean for me, when I listen to it. This is most probably because it's the only record I've actually 'played' in real time, although I did it only on my usual and sole instrument, the laptop. It's also the only album that does not feature any other musician. I'm alone. But at the same time, once again, I didn't create any sound, nor record anything. Each song is …
Any Way, Shape, or Form (4CD Box)
**Special Edition CD Box Set, over 4 hours of music, edition of 200 copies** Adam Pacione's finely crafted, deeply affecting drone work has found its place in the upper echelon of modern ambient artistry. Once heard, the gorgeous fluidity of his music is instantly recognizable.

Any Way, Shape, or Form, a stunning 4CD box set, …
Treasure Of Light
*300 copies limited edition* "It is with great emotion that I want to tell you about my wonderful collaboration with Martyn Bates, one of the most beautiful voices in the current scene. Speaking of him, Vittore Baroni once wrote: "he could sing the phone book". I agree. And it is a voice that is absolutely functional to the spring atmosphere that I have tried to embed in this album. That early spring that makes the first buds and the still cold morning mists shine together. That "treasure of lig…

Just Another Diamond Day
Recently voted one of the Top 100 British Albums of all time by the OMM, this CD re-release of Vashti Bunyan's 'Just Another Diamond Day' features the likes of Robert Kirby (of Nick Drake fame), Robin Williamson (Incredible String Band) and the Fairport Convention's Simon Nicol and Dave Swarbrick, it is also regularly cited as inspiration by Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom and Scout Nibblet... Possibly sounding a bit naïve in retrospect, much of 'Just Another Diamond Day' seems to exist somewher…

MID_EVIL
Improvisations recorded on the MID_EVIL album do not aspire to reconstruct the past. However, its ghost hauntingly looms over the whole project referring - if only by bone scraping sounds transmuting into the noise of prepared gramophone records - to sonic archaeology and the phantasms concerning the era of phonographic breakthrough. This material touches on issues concerning continuity in history and tradition, recording sounds and tones, as well as musical structures and practices.These are al…

Revue instrumentale et electronique
Gerd Kühr is a synonym for combining complexity and simplicity, modernity and “tradition”. Revue instrumentale et électronique - spatial composition for an instrumental ensemble and recorded sound in six movements – manage to cross and unite great variety of aspects of musical expression: complex, though powerful rhythmical constructions with hard accented percussion - boosted through ensemble spread in a room - and highly lyrical passages with extreme appreciation of time structured silence. Al…
Piano Music
Georges Aperghis is probably still not much associated, by the public that internationally attends performances of his works, with music for solo piano. Music-theatre – of an uncommonly original kind, with extended vocal techniques much to the fore – has usually been his stamping ground. The concerns that his operas and other music-theatre compositions have embraced – often focusing around a highly individual approach to words and to all aspects of language, developed with great musical sophisti…
Piano Concerto - Classical Blend/Weihnachtsoratorium
Petr Bakla belongs to generation of composers whose output no longer seems bound to the imperative of the "search for sounds" extended technique. Instead, he builds his music on the unmarked instrumental sound, which he uses to create a flow of interacting layers and explore the means of pure pitch, time and sound volume to the expressive extreme. His first ever solo release presents him at his best - two orchestral pieces as a definite manifesto of monumental monochromatic environments, b…
Ouate
A little bit of Baroque, a little bit of Zwölftonmusik, a little bit of electronica, that's Robert Lepenik
