Limited edition of 50 copies on purple vinyl. A meeting of two uncompromising sound artists, Carlos Giffoni and Joachim Nordwall, New Music fuses pulsating electronic rhythms, immersive drones, and abstract textures into a vivid, physical listening experience. Emerging from the outer edges of techno, noise, and electro-acoustic composition, both artists channel their distinct sonic vocabularies into a shared space of tension and transformation. Giffoni's deep synth drones collide with Nordwall's…

We are very proud to announce the second album by Michael Krassner for Dark Companion. This innovative, as ever, breathtaking music was originally intended as the soundtrack to a docufilm by Michael James Beck and Star Rosencrans of the same name: the film denounces the severe deforestation of North America’s majestic forests and all the associated problems. The music strikes arcane chords, buried in our collective memory. Ancient tales are told without words, preserving a profound sacredness th…
Collision Drive is Alan Vega's second solo studio album, originally released in 1981. If his debut laid the groundwork for a raw, minimalist take on rockabilly and blues, Collision Drive expands the palette with a grittier, more layered, and unfiltered energy. Here Vega's lyrics channel universal themes rooted in his fascination with street life, science fiction, politics, comics, love and the mysteries of the universe. It's a record that pulses with feeling and rebellion, displaying the full sp…
According to the 6th century Greek philosopher Anaximander, 'apeiron' is a state of primal chaos. It is the limitless, undefinable everything from which all is created & the essential form back to which all will ultimately return. Apeiron constantly & infinitely creates the building blocks of everything, including all states of opposition such as heat & cold, dry & wet, only to then destroy & remake it all anew in a boundless, eternal cycle. It seems that humanity in the 21st century is living i…
*300 copies limited edition* "Dis qu’t’as tort" is the latest venture from Tagubu (Denis Tagu, formerly of Hellebore, Look De Bouk, and Toupidek Limonade), realised in collaboration with Klimperei (Christophe Petchanatz, known for his work with Pierre Bastien, David Fenech, and Palo Alto, among others). The album represents a creative response to the increasing prevalence of autocracies and dictatorships across the globe, reflecting a world that is not simply changing, but rather derailing.

*100 copies limited edition* Notes from the nave is the debut album by 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗦. - Michiel Dondeyne’s alter ego. It’s a musical correspondence from the refuge of an introvert: the ‘nave’ - or the middle part - of a church in Antwerp, Belgium. It’s there, where he established the improvisations on piano that sprouted this album. Loose ideas became the blueprint of extended collages, wherein piano, subtle loops and samples conflate with the cello of Clémence Clarysse and the tenor saxophone…
Temporary reduced price. LP version. The second album from Berlin-based electronic group Mythos, originally released in 1975, represents a crucial bridge between the cosmic folk of their debut and the full-blown Berlin school sound that would dominate the second half of the decade. Mastermind Stephan Kaske guided the band into deeper electronic territories here, crafting sound cascades and sequencer patterns that align them with the visionary work of Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel on the same…

Mort Garson's road to the sublimity of Plantasia meant a decades-long journey through an underworld of sophisticated, international, string-laced arrangements - over a thousand writing, conducting, and arranging credits - to arrive at this set of queasy-listening revelations. A Canadian-born composer, arranger, songwriter, and pioneer of electronic music who worked until his death in 2008, Garson's knack was to exist in both worlds: super-commercial and way out. Via his wizardry, the synthesizer…

Quality reissue of a private LP, issued in edition of 300 copies in 1982; a skeletal extremist project that will then transform into the \'soundtrack\' of a movie with the same title, edited and directed by Paul Hurst. It\'s the setting of the griable pre-apocalyptic fossilization, the supreme lapidation of the meanness which creates the myth. There are actual melodies present -- dense and dark that mutate into harsh electronic outbursts.
\"In order to create this sound system, I used the conduc…
Where to From marks the much-anticipated solo return of Hildur Guðnadóttir, a composer-collaborator equally versed in spectral pop, avant-garde, and soundtrack work. Reaching beyond her acclaimed film and TV scores, Guðnadóttir crafts nine intimately reflective pieces for strings and choir—drawn from years of voice memos and melodic fragments—where minimalist restraint meets moments of luminous warmth. The album’s texture hovers between Scandinavian melancholy, sacred choral atmosphere, and a me…
Sister Irene O'Connor’s Fire of God's Love, reissued by Freedom To Spend, is a visionary 1976 private-press recording from Australia, blending devotional song with experimental electronics and echo-drenched vocals. The album’s raw spirituality, home studio inventiveness, and tape manipulations grant it a unique place in outsider pop, now made newly available to contemporary listeners in beautifully restored form.
Byzantium by Byzantium navigates the lush crossroads between British psychedelia, progressive folk, and classic rock. Released in 1972, the band’s sophomore LP intertwines ringing acoustic guitars, harmony-laden choruses, and searching, poetic lyricism—a cult artifact, shrouded in rich three-part singing and midnight-stained atmosphere.
January 2025, Osaka contemporary art gallery ‘Gallery Nomart’ hosted Hideo Takashima's solo exhibition ‘Fill with Empty’. This was Takashima's first exhibition at Nomart, and featured the first live collaboration between British heavyweight drummer/percussionist Roger Turner and sara (.es).
