*300 copies limited edition* Catholics Against Architecture is the name Chris Connelly has given this project that here collects twelve songs crafted from sonic collages, spoken word, fractured melodies, vocals not far removed from those that David Bowie traded some of his best songs on, rivulets of subdued noise and seemingly random location recordings, tender guitar work, tape manipulation and all kinds of other sounds either in between or beyond. Together, these compositions sit outside conve…
Slot Machine Music, Vol. 1 & 2: Field Recordings from Middle American Casinos
"Video gambling addicts, academic researchers, and industry professionals alike describe the trancelike state into which problem gamblers suspend themselves with remarkable consistency: they unanimously call it the machine “zone,” a kind of inner experience during which the rhythmic flow of human-machine collusion borders on mysticism. Time is abolished in the act of contemporary video gambling—simulated slot reels roll, virtual poker decks deal, and all worldly concerns are lost—leaving only th…

Eyry]
After decades of working at the margins of experimental electronic music, French composer Manon Anne Gillis returns with Eyry, her ninth solo album and a stunning testament to her unique approach to sound as a tactile, sensory experience. Released on Art Into Life as a limited edition of 300 vinyl copies (with download code), Eyry weaves together voice, breathing, words, and sounds using ingenious methodologies that have defined Gillis' practice since the 1980s.
Since her earliest works in the 1…
Explosion Of Bad Music
"Explosion of Bad Music” captures Simon Steensland at his most gloriously unhinged. Built around two expansive pieces of roughly 27 minutes each, the album dives headfirst into his signature avant-prog chaos (dense, theatrical, and wildly inventive), unfolding like a delirious, self-contained masterpiece. Every passage mutates with intent, transforming unease into narrative drive. Wild, intricate, and unexpectedly playful, it feels like a parallel universe where avant-garde rigor collides with d…
Sub Re
Kassel Jaeger (aka François J. Bonnet) returns to Shelter Press after Swamps / Things, Shifted in Dreams, and the recent reissue of the classic Zauberberg, co-composed with Akira Rabelais and Stephan Mathieu. With this major new album, entitled Sub Re, Bonnet continues his long exploration of the musical possibilities of sound, extending the concrete approach developed at the Groupe de Recherches Musicales, the historic and essential Parisian studio that Bonnet has been directing since 2018. Sub…
Monitor
CD version contains album tracks + "Beak b/w Pet Wedding" single and the Darker Skratcher comp track. * An errant project of suburban Los Angeles art collective World Imitation Productions, Monitor was the sonic outlet of four young artists grappling with their terror and amazement in the convergence of the late 1970s punk scene and Southern California's consumerist decadence.
As with the collective's visual artwork and events, Monitor blends archaic influences with modern technology into one of…
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…
Bad poet
First physical release from mysterious local project Kirbs. I consider the digital Kirbs releases to be some of the last treasures of the Internet, so I’m very happy to present her music finally on a physical medium. 25 minutes of absolutely brilliant domestic computer music. Totally unique and completely unlike anything else i’ve heard.
Channel Some Angst
The first thing that should strike any attentive listener of Gary Mundy’s work as Kleistwahr is that this new collection of nine songs features drums on the opening two tracks. Combining a manic rhythm with searing white noise, a post-punk guitar chopping angular sounds like it belongs to the debut Banshees’ album, and despairing vocals, ‘Cold Blood Cold Night’ sets the tone for most of the album. While not every song is bound to this same pulverising beat at its core, there’s a lot of untamed n…
Rufen
Rufen is the second installment in a trilogy of Qluster music, following on from the Fragen (BB 076CD/LP) studio album. In four impressive live recordings, Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Onnen Bock unfold aural panoramas which can only be described, in the truest sense of the word, as fantastic. Had Claude Debussy not already composed 'Prelude To The Afternoon Of A Faun,' then Qluster would have been ideally placed to do so, their transparency and polymorphism so reminiscent of his high Impressionis…
Live At Helluva Lounge
The hardcore noise improvisation duo featuring Martin Escalante, a ferocious noise saxophonist from Mexico, and Tatsuya Yoshida will release a CD featuring the complete recordings of their live performances in Kobe and Okayama from their previous 2025 tour, to coincide with their second Japan tour this August!
Clarity
To mark 50-years since a 22 year old Michael Gregory Jackson recorded his groundbreaking first release, "Clarity / Circle / Triangle / Square", recorded with the mind blowing group of his contemporaries Oliver Lake, David Murray and Leo Smith. This album is like no other I know, a new world, finding a perfect balance between multiple genres. Moved-By- Sound is very excited and honored to be involved in releasing the first reissue authorized by Michael Gregory Jackson since the original release i…

Cuts Cut
"As expected, the set began with some brain-blasting brutal noise [...] Although Merzbow is known for his extreme electronics, he is much more diverse and creative than most give him credit for. The best part of the set was when both Merzbow and Mats [Gustafsson] worked more carefully with their electronics while Mr. Pándi played some cerebral, shifting currents on his drums [...] which brought this set to a grand climax [...]". » Gallanter, Bruce. « Downtown Music Gallery », June 2018

Blickwinkel
Tip! CD version. After dipping into the archive to deliver a series of essential reissues, Bureau B continue to encourage the chaotic brilliance of Faust with an LP of brand-new music curated by originator Zappi Diermaier and a band of musical friends, including fellow founder Gunther Wüsthoff. Over the years Faust has become many things, each as separate as the fingers, but as together as the hand which makes up their eponymous fist. From 1971 to 1974 the Hamburg band blazed a bold sonic trail,…
Nachtfalter
Günter Schickert's debut Samtvogel (1975) was one of the most significant guitar albums of the krautrock era. Points of comparison from today's perspective are Syd Barrett or Pink Floyd's more adventurous early recordings. Schickert's follow-up, Überfällig (1980) was released on the legendary Sky label. Once again a milestone recording, it showcased Schickert's hypnotic echo guitar which developed into one of the hallmarks of the krautrock sound. Schickert's new album Nachtfalter, translating as…
Epic Sound Battles Chapter One
Here’s a monster of its own. Not to be confused with Trevor Jackson early 2000 project (even if the british producer has obviously been informed by post-punk, dub, post-industrial and the likes) Playgroup was more than anything a collective, based somewhere around Bristol and London. Drummer Bruce Smith was the key figure behind the project. Neneh Cherry husband and fabulous motorik force for The Pop Group, The Slits, New Age Steppers, African Head Charge and – more recently - Public Image Limit…
ianua
Tip! *75 copies limited edition* Ianua takes its name from the Latin word for “door,” drawing inspiration from the symbolism of Janus—the two-faced deity of beginnings, endings, and transitions. Conceived as a cyclical work where the end folds back into the beginning, the album is built entirely from guitar sounds, transformed through a Plumbutter and recorded to tape. Changes in tape speed and playback irregularities introduce subtle imperfections and shifting variations, allowing the loops to …
Poem 1
On Poem 1, Ana Roxanne strips away the ambient haze of her earlier work to place her voice, naked and close‑mic’d, at the center of a heartbreak record. Slow, piano‑led ballads, a Schumann lied recast in synth‑chamber light, and one Lynchian jazz centerpiece turn her quiet intensity into a lucid, emotionally exposed song cycle.
Greek Variations & Other Aegean Exercises
British Jazz Explosion Series! Recorded in '69, Greek Variations & Other Aegean Exercises is irresistible on two counts. First, for its daringly conceived and brilliantly performed music, inspired by Greek folk songs and instrumental textures and deep enough to reveal all its treasures only after many repeated listenings. Second, for being recorded at the moment when the Don Rendell/Ian Carr Quintet, a major force in British straight-ahead jazz since '62, had broken up and Carr's equally influen…
