Script Geometry
**500 copies, 2019 stock** "Approaching the forest as if it were a city, a construct, an ensemble of strata and vertical heights where signals answer, contrast and ignore each other. Variations occur, fullness and emptiness are created according to the weather and the peak and off-preak hours. This density that language can't define presents a challenge for the ear, and from this density surfaces, from time to time, certain analogies to a modern sound environment. Cultural leads fraw our experie…
Another Perfect Day
Eight years since his last solo electric guitar record. Bill Orcutt returns to what made his playing essential: slashing chords, frenzied double-picking, angular runs that climb and ricochet. Recorded live at Cafe OTO. No computer loops. No gentle melodic glow. Just Orcutt and his four-string Fender through a tattered Twin Reverb.
Electronic Modular Orchestra
Electronic Modular Orchestra: from Neil Young to Stravinsky. Curiosity is the element that allowed the birth of this project. Gabriele Bombardini, Nicola Peruch, Matteo Scaioli, and Max Vicinelli are musicians who have decades of experience in all fields of music. The desire to combine seemingly distant sounds such as the use of old analog synthesizers, a pedal steel that recalls the American folk tradition, and the modular synthesis that leads back to the so-called concrete musical research…
Sporangium
*300 copies limited edition* A sporangium (from Ancient Greek sporá 'seed' and angeîon 'vessel') is an enclosure in which spores are formed. It can be composed of a single cell or can be multicellular. Virtually all plants, fungi, and many other groups form sporangia at some point in their life cycle. Sporangia can produce spores by mitosis, but in land plants and many fungi, sporangia produce genetically distinct haploid spores by meiosis.
Sporangium is brand new "merzsoniks"! Equipments used b…
Violent For Being Sexually Desired
*2024 reprint* Violent For Being Sexually Desired is the debut album by Scopophilia released in late 2021. The collaborative project by Harriet Kate Morgan (aka Military Position) and Ester Kärkkäinen (aka Himukalt). The CD sold-out immediately and is much demanded.

One cannot write about Scopophilia without discussing the female condition, as both artists sublimate their own biogr…
Les Météores du Coeur
Yvan Etienne creates sound installations and performances blending composition and perception. His work explores acoustic and electronic spaces, memory, and psyche, often in site-specific contexts.
Tournures Cessent / Tournures Cessent Orchestrales
This composition is a kind of false diary of the year 2015, or rather a real concentration of that year’s memories with very little rationality in its hierarchies, its ordering, or in the connections it makes. The narrative, if one wants to hear any, comes from the meeting between chronologies, the shape of the snippets, the fortuitous accidents and such, yet all in the absence of any sequential logic. The idea of building a form of sound by gambling with memories had been turning and returning …

These compositions follow Codex amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive breeding), released in 2018 on Glistening Examples.

Loss
*170 copies limited edition* "Between September and November of 2024, I turned to sonic art making to cope with personal grief and to reestablish a sense of purpose after a family loss. Like a ritual, I developed a weekday routine, working in my studio from 1:30 to 5:30 PM consisting of field recording and improvisation with sine waves and objects. From this material, I composed six pieces that emphasize continuity and repetition, drawing on coarse, low, and deep resonances to embody the rituali…

Pierre Boulez: Éclat-Multiples
Éclat-Multiples unmasks Pierre Boulez’s music at its most mercurial and sensorial. Michael Wendeberg leads Collegium Novum Zürich and Ensemble Contrechamps through shifting prismatic textures, capturing Boulez’s fascination with timbre, spatial construction, and the suspended motion of silence and sound. Each gesture is meticulously contoured, reinforcing the line between energetic outburst and architectural poise.

Uranus - Tibetan Singing Bowls
Digipack CD. In the late 1980s, Klaus Wiese (Popol Vuh) deepened his connection with Tibetan culture. The result is a series of works solely dedicated to the universal purity of the Singing Bowls. Uranus, perhaps the most rigorous of these, is an intense meditation on the trans-personal sphere of the VI chackra. The music becomes like a single harmonic chant, the reflection of a constant flow of divine light, which transforms the psyche and dilates the secret passages of the heart. In the galaxy…
La Cantata Rossa per Tall el Zaatar
A devastating cry for Palestine, nearly five decades later, this radical 1977 masterpiece returns to vinyl via Black Sweat Records. Demetrio Stratos, Gaetano Liguori, and Giulio Stocchi created a powerful sonic testament to the 1976 Tall el Zaatar massacre - a devastating blend of free jazz, experimental vocals, and Mediterranean traditions. More than music, it's unflinching historical testimony that remains painfully relevant today.
Om Shanti Shanti Om

This super quality audio, recorded by RAI (the italian public broadcasting company) in 1976 for television, documents a quartet concert focused on vocals compositions and improvisations. Here, Don Cherry and his family-community’s musical belief emerges in its simplicity, w…
Lettera Cosmica
Huge Tip! Since the 1970s Mario De Leo works as a musician and visual artist. His mechanical paintings are hybrid works that reveal the cosmic spiritualism hidden in the meanders of electronics. With Riccardo Sinigaglia (Futuro Antico, Correnti Magnetiche, Doubling Riders) De Leo consolidates an artistic and human partnership with Lettera Cosmica, a work unpublished to date, produced and recorded in 1981. In a wacky electronic vision of the succession of time, the tracks trace the four seasons i…
The Call: For A New Life
* Edition of 300. Spectacular four-panel gatefold cover * Since the early 1980s, the Nexus creature has represented one of the most interesting realities of the Italian jazz scene. Daniele Cavallanti (Aktuala) and Tiziano Tononi (Moon On The Water and D.O.M Alia Orchestra) realize a sensational mix of orchestral praxis and impro-free jazz. The strength lies in the ensemble's variety of timbres, in that precise hybrid of styles reminiscent of the cross-sectional experiences of the 1970s of Zappa,…
