Liz Harris's debut as Grouper returns—the album that established her approach to ambient music as something other than comfort. Songs that refuse to be remembered, fog that won't lift, secrets kept just on the other side of the speakers. Kranky reissues the 2005 original.

»Is This The Land I Wish Death To Find Me« was recorded on June 26, 2024 at the Tank Center for Sonic Arts in Rangely, Colorado. The recording is based on a slowly shifting set of ascending just minor thirds: 6:5, 7:6, and 13:11. Magnetic geophones were attached directly to the Tank’s steel exterior, allowing the performance to be captured through the physical resonance of the structure itself. Only a minimal amount of the microphones inside the building were mixed in for clarity. The work draws…

What could have been a straightforward fo…

Fernande, Cecile reflects on these two women: Pirard lost her grandmother at…
Bill Fontana investigates the physics of perception itself. Side A: tape collages where sound becomes both material and force. Side B: Wave Spiral for 5 Rin Gongs - a sidelong, 21-minute centerpiece where pure sine waves create interference patterns, frequency made sculptural. Sound spiraling through space, dissolving boundaries between observer and phenomenon.
Tip! Turin is a city of crumbing facades and fading surfaces. A memorial to regal splendour and industrial boom. Behind every door is a different world. Pass through a grand double-door in the southern part of the city into a quiet courtyard, through into a small room with a high ceiling and cracked white coving. The room holds a modest studio set up, everything laid out as if the occupant just left. It’s a workshop, littered with blank cassettes, sepia-tinted journals and unidentified family sc…

Rare Original! By 1975, I Gres had established themselves as one of the most consistently exciting groups in the Italian library music scene. Their first two volumes, released on Globevision and Gemelli, had demonstrated a remarkable range, moving fluidly between hard-hitting funk, atmospheric bossa nova, blues-rock workouts, and cinematic mood pieces. For their third and final album, the group expanded both their sonic palette and their compositional team, bringing in Salvatore Lo Turco as an a…

Before he turned 20, Lô Borges released one of the most captivating albums to come out of Brazil’s rich musical landscape — a record that somehow flew under the radar at the time but has since become a cult favorite for listeners around the world.

Pressured by Odeon Records to deliv…

A New Life is not an album. It does not belong to a ‘genre.’ Not aesthetic, not ironic, not for consumption. Not intellectual—it is felt. It speaks from coherence—structure beneath the noise. Grief, anger, stillness are not flaws here—they belong. Featuring harp and saxophone by Róisín and Cathal Berkeley. A return to truth. To be human without the mask. Integrated, not performed or bypassed. "May we all live freely, knowing that all is well— ever was, ever will be. Not by ignoring what’s here, …
Peter Beyls stands as a pioneer at the crossroads of computer science and the arts, shaping generative systems in music, visual, and hybrid formats. In early works, inspired by figures such as Michel Waisvisz, Karel Goeyvaerts, and Lucien Goethals, Beyls fused electronic experimentation with precise tape artistry, notably advancing the crackle box synthesizer at STEIM.
Released in clear-tray jewel case with 12-page booklet. Larks' Tongues In Aspic is the fifth in a series of audiophile King Crimson vinyl reissues. Newly cut from masters approved by Robert Fripp, this super-heavyweight 200gm vinyl re-issue is housed in a reprint of the original sleeve.
