La Proyección
“La Proyección”, the debut LP by Jose María Lluch, architect and musician from San Sebastian, appears as a transition, a gradual shift that happened over time. Intimate and innocent, disconnected and erratic at times, the 11 compositions presented here are extracted from recordings spanning 9 years, between 2015-2024. Humbly assorted in his home studio, the music here is for letting your mind drift. The processes of composition, recording, and editing intertwine. Field recordings from daily chor…
Miao Mouthorgans & other rare instruments in Guizhou, Sichuan, China
Rare field recordings by Laurent Jeanneau among minority communities in southern China: mouth organs of every size, the Gelao gupiaoqin and elders' canon singing. Recorded with honesty about ethnic tourism, seeking music that is lived rather than staged. A precious snapshot of traditions under pressure
Open Air: The Complete Saxophone Quartet Compositions of Julius Hemphill
This recording brings together the forty known compositions for Saxophone Quartet by Julius Hemphill (1939-1995). These works were composed between 1978 and 1989 for performances with the World Saxophone Quartet. These compositions are, with the fewest of exceptions, written specifically “on” the saxophone quartet. He will at times set a piece written for his small-group ensembles onto the saxophone choir, but in the main, this music is created on and through the saxophones. He uses the saxopho…

Phillo Jazz
Phillo Jazz winks at improvisational traditions Akita has always both honored and subverted. Jazz's spontaneity finds its noise equivalent - though the relationship is more conceptual than sonic. Where jazz improvisation operates within harmonic frameworks, Merzbow improvisation occurs in texture and density, shape and duration.
The "Phillo" prefix remains mysterious - perhaps referencing philosophy, philology, or simply playing with sounds. These recordings demonstrate fluidity at its best: not…

Finis Terrae
French composer Sylvain Bombled aka Mayerling is back on HITD with ‘Finis Terrae’, marking the project's first album in 8 years. In the winter of 2025, the musician came up with these five pieces while in solitary retreat on the northern coast of Ouessant, the westernmost island of metropolitan France. The rough weather, the awe-inspiring beauty of the surroundings and the majestic grandeur of the natural elements play a pivotal role in each composition, allowing Mayerling to delve into his inne…

Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive!
The music on Horse Lords’ Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive! feels both impossibly detailed and eminently human. The album’s twelve pieces are layered and interwoven, tonally and rhythmically complex––moiré-like patterns of interaction and tessellation that play out for both mind and body, full of sonic warrens with an inescapable groove. An electrifying leap forward for the band’s shared language, Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive! aims to liberate the listener into a spiritual, ecstatic, and…
Unfamiliar Music (Paris)
Sold out at the label. Sparkling or Silent finds crys cole and Oren Ambarchi pausing their restless, always‑on‑the-move discographies at a curious angle, as if turning the light slightly to see what has been glinting at the edges all along. Both artists have long carried an electroacoustic sensibility in their work - in cole’s hyper‑attentive treatment of small sounds and negative space, in Ambarchi’s use of guitar and electronics as malleable matter rather than fixed instruments - but here that…
Plumes
*75 copies limited edition* Plumes emerges from a long-term sonic and ethnographic exploration of the Étang de Berre, a coastal lagoon near Marseille, France shaped by industrial pollution and ecological disruption. Recorded between 2021 and 2024, the album captures fragile entanglements between human activity and more-than-human life. Using hydrophones, ultrasonic detectors, and parabolic microphones, Bullock and Silva probe the lagoon's submerged acoustics, bat echolocations, and the overlappi…

God Spill
On God Spill, Victoria Mingot drags folk guitar through faulty circuitry and hissed devotion, stacking rough improvisations, blurred vocals and glitched drones into a slow, translucent act of repair where presence and disappearance keep trading places.
