*35 copies limited edition* 'Behind the Pane' is an album built around an intimate feeling: the warmth and safety of being inside the house while the outside world turns into rain, snow, wind, or twilight beyond the glass. Across its 8 pieces, the album explores ethereal soundscapes, delicate textures, and small details and artifacts that appear and disappear like reflections in a window. Each track seeks to capture that contrast between shelter and exposure: the protected silence of the interio…

This rare tape captures the band's signature blend of experimental soundscapes and lo-fi grooves, drawing from psychedelic and ambient influences prominent in 1980s-90s indie releases.

Finding herself in different emotional and physical spaces over the past years, The Hague-based Seina creates four ambiguous tracks for Juni, her debut EP out on Präsens Editionen. The material, which comfortably sits between ambient, glitch and noise, feels like a long-overdue update of Mille Plateaux and Raster-Noton's golden days. The result, however, is much richer in texture and much more sensual than these dinosaurs of electronic music. On Juni, Seina, who has a background in electroacoust…

*50 copies limited edition* The second volume of Human Wave Music is a new journey by Iku Sakan into electronic repetitive minimalism. Deep rooted in the human nature of the loop and the vibration of matter's ceaseless rhythm. These recordings feature a contribution for "Ikuisuuspallo" from Pekka Airaksinen (1945-2019)'s . Pekka was one of the pioneers of the Finnish/Scandinavian avant garde music from 60's, both his name and his 60's band "Sperm" are mentioned in NWW list. "Ikuisuuspallo" is fr…

Akhira Sano is a Tokyo-based artist working across sound, drawing, installation, and video. His practice finds generative potential for music in life's fleeting incidents, etching meaning from unassuming spaces and resonances. With releases on 12k, LAAPS, IIKKI, and The Trilogy Tapes, Sano has steadily carved out a distinctive voice within minimal and experimental music - one that privileges attentiveness and patience over spectacle. "To Material Past", Sano's debut for SWIMS, carries this threa…

2025 stock Under the new moniker A/N, French producer Apollo Noir delves deeper into his music and casts a strong yet versatile sonic alloy of atmosphere, beat, voice and texture. ACIE E R R (alliteration, French for steel) is a raw, eloquent and fickle stream of consciousness of openness and transparency. Coming from steel-city of Thiers, where his family forged a reputation as unrivaled knife manufacturers, A/N does not hide his deep bond with the age-old metal alloy and its making, which here…

Around this time last year, Marc Ertel joined the stage with the PITP brethren James Bernard, zakè, and From Overseas for a live performance at the Gothic Chapel in Indianapolis, US which was eventually released as a limited vinyl LP. Since then, Ertel has been quietly working on new solo arrangements along with new compositions that will be part of an imminent Dawn Chorus and the Infallible Sea record. Just a few months after the Gothic Chapel performance, Ertel was invited to play a live set a…

Uoiea is a collection of meditative and textured minimalist ambient drone pieces created using only a Squier Bass VI and guitar pedals. Where in most of my compositions I tend to add layers and fill as many frequencies as possible, I opted instead to embrace the space between notes, the subtleness of the Bass VI's highest tones, and the general feeling of drifting slowly. The track names are nonsense pseudowords - descriptors of feelings and experiences that do not exist. This is an album for fl…

*2025 stock. 50 copies limited edition* We are thrilled to reveal CQR, the ninth release from Tocca il Futuro and the latest visionary project from the extraordinary musician and visual artist, Daniele Veronese.

The music of CQR unfolds like an intricate tapestry, weaving ambient sounds that are somet…

“approaches #1” is a study based on electronically amplified objects. The first phase is the selection and microphoning of objects that are familiar in everyday life and in the context of music. The second phase is the alienation and merging. Live, the tracks run through effect pedals, creating a continuous drone. “approaches #1” is a shallow monster that is both demanding and highly immersive. - rsn

*50 copies limited edition. 2025 stock* "As the tracks are in connection with each other, please listen to the whole album, don't skip between tracks. I started recording "Surface" after finding an old picture of me.I had forgotten that particular period of my life. When I looked at that picture, time stopped, I was catapulted backwards in slow-motion flashback, as if I was lost between two parallel times.Then I tried to rebuild this specific moment with the tracks of this album. During the reco…

On ‘Cordial’, Ursula Sereghy traces the sensation of home; not as a place, but as something fleeting and deeply felt. Comfort appears in glimpses, nestled between moments of dissonance and unraveling structure. There is joy, but it carries the weight of absence, the quiet grief of realizing what was missing all along. A laughter that is both liberating and bittersweet. Sereghy’s music moves with no fixed center, shedding hierarchies and opening itself to the unknown. Sounds unravel and reform: f…

*75 copies limited edition* Meditated acts in inter-dimensional resonance; the acoustic vacuum-seal container of recording; context withheld. No possibility of representation. (Only the direct signal from the instrument(s) is presented.) Sympathetic, material connections between body, building and atmosphere in a studio. Extra frequencies can be heard in some places between speakers. Louder playback displays increasing detail. At 80dB+, the room often completes the piece. This release is meant t…

*80 copies limited edition* A mesmerizing blend of ambient guitar textures and loops layered on top of subtle field recordings, creating a tranquil yet mysterious atmosphere. Sparse, improvisational lines that gently unfold, reverberate and stretch out into spacious, meditative soundscapes.

The shadowy duo of Echardt & Kash bring a deep groove mentality to the floating world of New Age music. Plush ambience and tropical birdsong continue in the tradition of sound-as-vibrational-transport, but this is bass music aware of its place in a post-trip hop world. Whether the title is an earnest ode to the inner journey or something more satirical remains open to interpretation. The potent, hypnotic ether of these recordings, however, makes the answer immaterial.Covers are hand-marbled and …

Lived In, by Pacific Northwest-based artist Gabriel Celestino Higgins, is a densely meditative work that initially seems concerned with drones, but which upon further investigation slowly reveals layers of submerged harmonies throughout a landscape of curiously degraded sound. Delicately strummed guitar notes supply an almost imperceptible emotional momentum to the music that begins to create an interesting tension within the listener. There's an almost palpable sense of one's self inhabiting a …
