2004 release (light storage wear) ** "Guy De Bièvre, a Belgian composer and guitarist, worked in the urban environment of New York until he focused on a particular sound frequency (60 Hz), then isolated it and assembled it in the various sequences that make up this portrait of Manhattan. The various compositions go to `simulate` different auditory approaches: linear - simulation of a walk on Broadway, approximately from 123rd Street to Battery Park; circular - simulation of listening from the to…

2018 release ** "“score” or inspiration for this CD was a solo concert of Burkhard Stangl at the Reheat festival at Kleylehof in 2014. The theme of the performance was the song Bésame Mucho by the Mexican composer Consuelo Velázquez. Chesterfield then took the recording and recomposed it, and composed new pieces mixing everything with old and new recordings, home recordings, accidental recordings, live performances ... all Chesterfield from 2013 till now... a Chesterfield diary of songs, of noi…
2011 release ** All the recordings were made at home in Athens between June 2010 and April 2011. No electronic effects, overdubbing or processing used. Ambient noise from several parallel events taking place in Greece at the time of recording has deliberately not been removed. "On Stroke by Stroke, the windows in Dimitra Lazaridou-Chatzigoga’s house are thrown open; you can hear the streets of Athens enlaced in her apothegmatic pieces for a radically prepared and refashioned zither. Knowing this…
2012 release ** Limited edition of 150 copies. "Ton is the project of Dimitris Damaskos (aka Damcase) and Haris Koutsokostas (Vokal Idiot). The duo creates a diverse audio environment blending analogue sound sources with field recordings and lo-fi samples with sine waves & high pitched tones. Although the two musicians come from quite different musical backgrounds, their collaboration for this release creates a dialogue of unique interest, in wich silence and intensity, sound in unison and in ba…
2003 release ** Pplastic and paper slipcase, each copy with a unique hammer imprint. "Akin to Erik Satie’s advice to the performer of his Vexations to prepare oneself with some “serious immobilities”, Cal Crawford here examines the impossibilities of holding still. For ‘sitting on theories on the frontier on extension’, his first full length solo CD, he generated sounds by sitting on top of a bundle of blankets with a microphone rolled up into its center. This one hour process was his starting p…

**Finally repressed / repackaged on CD format for these incredible remastered / reissues from 2008. ** A Gilded Eternity is the third and final album from Loop, it originally came out in January 1990, and was recently reissued as part of the Loop Remasters on 2CD in 2009. The 7 tracks on the album (plus the two tracks on the bonus 7”) are from a band at the absolute peak of their power; there was far more to Loop than bludgeoning riffs and cranking up the gain control. Here was a band that also …
Remastered CD reissue + additional CD with bonus tracks and Peel Session. Had Loop been present at Woodstock, they probably would have hatched a plan to obtain all the brown acid that Wavy Gravy warned spectators not to take. After hearing his declaration that "The brown acid's a bummer, man!," Robert Hampson and his droogs would have likely gone incognito as security staff, offering to rid the concert goers of the bad trips waiting to be had. They would have procedeed to ingest what they could …
Remastered CD reissue + additional CD with bonus tracks, guitar loops and Peel Session. Distinguishing one Loop record from another is nearly as tricky as doing the same for the Ramones or AC/DC. Since Loop more or less stuck to one thing, remaining consistently great and gradually developing an experimentalist streak throughout their brief lifespan, the actual sound of each record is what separates one from the next. Aside from increasing control over their instruments, there isn't a great deal…
2008 release ** Handpainted, handnumbered 21x15cm cardboard box set limited to 222 copies, including an 8 page booklet and some extras: a piece of grass, a wooden cross, a "Vivimed" oblate" and a dia.
2003 release ** First edition with printed fold-out cover between two painted wooden plates. Hand-numbered limited edition of 80 pieces. "Experimental music from Latvia! Salikapalikau create a very own kind of bizarre ambient music, using lots of strange electronic and non-electronic sounds (water, voices, electro-drones and loops, floating guitars..)... reminded us on Vance Orchestra, ID Battery, etc., very interesting and well executed! Comes in a green-yellow painted wood-cover with handwritt…
2008 release ** Packaged in an A5–sized glossy digipak. "The third and the most complete release by one of the most tallented ambient artists hailing from Poland these days. Unifying vast array of elements, Per Aspera once again achieves remarkably introvert but vibrant style. Eerie industrial atmosphere seamlessly blends with serene harmonies of almost orchestral form. Cinematic, monstrous drone formations morph into pulsating abyss of dissonant disturbances and uncompromised sonic experiments,…

Debut album "Avarie" saw the light in 2005. Also in this work, Bergamini relies on the collaboration of his inseparable musical partner Elena…
"zakè, James Bernard and Markus Guentner build a cascading and overwhelmingly beautiful record that combines the zen of the best ambient/new age music along with the “Big Sky” openness of post-rock bands like Explosions in The Sky and This Will Destroy You. You get songs with chilly names like “Polar Night”, “Seafrost”, and “Arctic Choir” – and there is a sort of vast arctic blue hue to these songs – but it lacks even a hint of desolation. I can imagine listening to something like “Assembly of L…
At that time the tenth Embryo LP, recorded in India in 1976 and in Switzerland in 1977, released in 1978 on the April label. Again in the well-known Embryo style: progressive jazz-rock with strong world music influences and only occasional vocals. The vinyl has never been reissued, there was a CD edition in 1999 on Disconforme, but it has long since been cancelled. A very relaxed album, and while there are occasional highlights in individual contributions, the overall impression is that it just …
After their psychedelic and bluesy beginnings, Missus Beastly had been playing instrumental jazz-rock since 1974. This was also the case here at their performance at the Haus der Jugend in Minden on Friday, January 23rd, 1976. In the same month, just a few days before, they had also recorded their then third LP 'Dr. Aftershave and the mixed-pickles', then still with Jürgen Benz. So the pieces on the Minden CD contain some elements of the LP tracks, but nothing more. It wasn't that the pieces wer…
