Vertonen is the work of Blake Edwards, a veteran of the chicago noise and experimental scene. with close to 100 releases many of them published through his own crippled intellect productions and ballast imprints spread over several decades, edwards has finetuned his craft of cryptically inclined, electronic invocations that might channel the raw brutality of industrial machinery or the existential claustrophobia of a submariner's voyage nearing its untimely end. there are numerous aesthetic face…
*35 copies limited edition* Written during a time of fracture and crisis, this album is about looking for a wonder in the cracks. It’s about embracing the flawed and the frail, positing that if re-enchantment is possible, it will sprout from the small things. Built from gentle field recordings and analogue synthesizers, it offers music as a talisman; a warm, homespun garment for uncertain days.
*35 copies limited edition* On Fioritures, Lamasz offers his debut for Le Mont Analogue, transforming fragments of classical music into a quietly immersive work. Rooted in material drawn from thrifted cassettes, the six pieces unfold through looping motifs that drift and dissolve, gently enriched with drones, field recordings, and tape textures. The result is a cohesive, meditative reverie, where each moment slowly erodes into a suspended, near-weightless state.
Lussuria returns with Fresco, the latest full-length from the New York project of Jim Mroz, issued on LP by Hospital Productions. A quieter and more painterly record than much of what has come before it, but no less haunted.
Active since 2007, Lussuria has quietly assembled one of the most distinctive bodies of work within the Hospital Productions orbit. Mroz came to wider attention with the American Babylon series in 2012, then a run of releases that moved between dark ambient, muted industrial…
“between soil and signal” is a three-part audiovisual performance featuring live electronics and Cretan bulgari. It reimagines the atmosphere of long-duration poetry singing and oral traditions from Balkan, mainland Greek, and Cretan communities. Expanding poetry beyond language through an interplay of immersive sound and dynamic moving images, the performance crafts a world that is at once synthetic and organic, fragile and intimate, inspired by cosmogonic myths, magic spells, and folk songs. T…
*50 copies limited edition* Following last year's debut LP, Almost An Island, released on Past Inside the Present, the trio of James Bernard, Cynthia Bernard, and Kenneth James Gibson return with the three-song EP Few Words Are Enough.

*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…
*35 copies limited edition* 'Soñador' (Dreamer) is a deeply personal album reflecting Bålsam's decade-long journey in the jungles of Colombia. It explores healing through music, experiences with plant medicines, and the impact of childhood bullying. Key themes include a profound connection with someone during a time of loss and discovering new ways to express himself. The album features heartfelt contributions, including a voice message from his mother and a track with his 5-year-old daughter. S…
*2026 stock* Yialmelic Frequencies is the therapeutic instrumental music from LA-based artist Diva Dompé channeled from her home planet Yialmel. Zjumk collects the instrumental layers Diva has created and archived at dublab.com for her monthly guided-meditation radio show “Yialmelic Transmissions” – this is the first album in a series of volumes from this reserve.
There are moments of silent depth in which the winter of the scalpel of meaning and the spring of the sound-born, unleashed body look upon the world fully present. When the notes at last are heard, the ordered world is their indistinguishable score. The ritual of process is that which carries. The process of ritual is that which brings moments both transitory and immortal, apprehended by musician, seer, clairvoyant, herald; the welling tones that emanate from the crystal salt of shattered pri…
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.

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* Mtua is the moniker of Matthieu Reynaud, a composer and sound artist based in Lyon. He is an enthusiast of long, contemplative forms, he works on the physicality of sound matter, carving out its contours and striving to breathe his own narrative into it. As a member of the SILO and Groovedge collectives, MTUA's musical practice focuses on the ability of oscillations to sculpt atmospheres. His sound installations draw on surrounding acoustic phenomena to transcribe the…
*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 …
*2024 stock. 50 copies limited edition* This is the fourth studio album of Kryptogen Rundfunk and the first one since the project moved from Russia to the Netherlands. Six tracks full of weird trademark radio noises and interceptions, heavy bass drones and piercing high frequencies, abstract electronic signals and quirky samples. These layered compositions are slowly building up, creating thick mesmerizing walls of sound, yet at the same time leaving room for a bit of flippancy. An uneasy ride f…
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 …
Nice Music presents the debut full length from Melbourne's Simon J Karis, 'Madrugada' - an all-encompassing work, earnestly detailing the anatomy of the nighttime psyche. Karis has crafted an ambitious narrative arc, tangible through the presence of sculpted sound and ecstatic melody alone rather than words or literal description. Visceral thought patterns both fleeting and consuming during leisure time swarm and writhe for their place; ingrained neurosis, the pursuit of pleasurable life experie…
*100 copies limited edition* There’s a raw hypnotic quality in Jerome’s output, a perceived facility to summon heavy bass, circular mantras and elastic shadowy beats. Over the last three years they have refined and cultivated their unique dystopian mixture of industrial, techno and dark electronics and their new EP ‘Moving’ is a fascinating snapshot of their ever-changing journey.
Based in Bristol, UK and Athens, Greece the Italian/Swedish/Greek duo of Annalisa Iembo and Stella Mathioudakis have…
Hopes and Theory is a collection of songs inspired by wild plants and intentional gardens. At its core this music is rooted in synthesis, autonomy, and purely tuned harmony. At its heart there is chaos, color, and evolution. Hopes and Theory was recorded on the island of North Haven, Maine and reflects the anarchy of serenity in a seemingly peaceful place. William Trevaskis is a composer and sound artist living and working in the Fox Islands of Maine who uses xenharmony to explore themes of cha…

The third and closing chapter of the "Raum" trilogy by an moku and stefan schmidt – "Raum Im Raum" serves finely crafted ambient / soundscapes, and is the most intense and darkest album of the series.
Ben Glas (b. 1992) is an experiential composer based in Berlin. Through ephemeral compositions Glas' work questions preconceived notions between the acts of passive hearing and active listening. In seeking to discover open ended forms of music and pragmatic listening perspectives, Glas' compositions focus on the realms of subjective perception and cognition, via the use of acoustics, psychoacoustics and space as tools for sonic composition.His work has been exhibited and performed internationall…
*50 copies limited edition. In processof stocking. 2023 stock* "Naming The Trees (zero192) by J. Surak is a concise art statement, just ten minutes a side on the limited cassette. Apparently produced by a combination of methods: analog synths, patches, treated and prepared instruments, and a humidifier – maybe a field recording of one of these handy domestic beasts, unless he “trained” its limited mind to assist in the performance in some way. Furthermore, it’s got something to do with a dance s…
