Four soundtracks Bogusław Schaeffer wrote for art films of the Educational Film Studio in Łódź, 1967 to 1980, mostly made at the Polish Radio Experimental Studio: processed voice, dense percussion and jazz saxophone, remastered from original tapes.
Near a remote village with a not-so-important name lies the entrance to a dungeon, sadly notorious among the local inhabitants. Legend has it that no one has ever come out of it alive. This is the only certain truth; all the rumors about what awaits you inside are wildly different and often contradictory. This peculiar dungeon is actually a magical dungeon, the foolish (or perhaps amusing?) experiment of a diabolical 36th-level wizard: the dungeon is constantly changing, or perhaps it does not e…
The encounter between Ramona Ponzini and Maurizio Bianchi yields a work poised on the threshold between evocation and vertigo: a sonic device unfolding through stratifications, resonances, and semantic as well as acoustic collisions.Maurizio Bianchi, a pioneer of the Italian industrial scene, chisels soundscapes built from abrasive, material noises, dissonant cadences, and atmospheres both dust-laden and rarefied yet simultaneously dense. The listener moves across these terrains as if navigating…
Alessandro Alessandroni's 1976 poliziottesco score, cut in one day with Enrico Pieranunzi, Silvano Chimenti and Dino Piana: jazz-funk, deep soul and disco in the wake of Shaft. 50th anniversary edition, expanded with 14 unreleased tracks.
In November 2017, something extraordinary happened in Shibuya. As Shuta Hasunuma began conjuring otherworldly sounds from a single Buchla Music Easel modular synthesizer, Keiji Haino—one of Japan's most uncompromising experimental voices—responded by singing "Kimigayo," the Japanese national anthem. What started as an unplanned encounter between two visionary musicians has now crystallized into U TA, an album that brilliantly captures the haunting and complex interplay of Haino's resonant …

The result is one of the earliest and most radical documents of interspecies improvisation. Predating the current wave of sound ecology by decades, For The Birds sits comfortably alongside the biophonic research of Bernie …
Tip! ** Edition of 200 ** Leaving Hardly a Mark is the debut album of the LHAM project, behind which lie the Italians Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh, Hall of Mirrors, Twist of Fate...) and Bruno De Angelis (Mana Erg).

Delicate sound watercolours, moments …

LP version. This album is a tribute to the person and spirit of John Coltrane. It was produced by musicians who not only admire Coltrane but embody similar values.While it’s always a good time to honor Coltrane’s memory, this particular moment seems to carry an increased urgency of remembering his message and mission.Since some owners of this amazing record may be unfamiliar with Coltrane’s character, it’s worthwhile to briefly state a few biographical details.First, Coltrane was a compassionate…
Perila returns with a contemplative spiritual successor to her album »7.37/2.11«, which was also released on Vaagner’s sister label A Sunken Mall back in 2022. Featuring a collection of 8 pieces produced between 2021 and 2023, the album carries a serene vulnerability that underpins each work, drawing the listener in while gently grounding them amidst a drifting, ephemeral motion of echoing voices, droning guitars and sonorous soundscapes. Like a whispered conversation in the quiet moments of the…
In Complete Works for Multiple Piano, Morton Feldman’s quietly radical writing for three or more hands is heard as a three‑hour continuum of hushed, hovering sonorities, where time dilates and the piano becomes a shared, breathing instrument.
For over 25 years, David Madson (aka Odd Nosdam) has been stationed away from the light of the mainstream, diligently working the nightshift. Every so often, we awake to find another of his bleary and beautiful missives slung into the waking world – albums whose assemblages of sampled grooves, atmospheres and voices are unified by a hallucinatory sense of melody, like disparate visions strung together through ribbons of sleep-talk. From his earliest days as a member of the seminal group cLOUDDEA…
A single 45-minute solo for viola, written by Timothy McCormack with and for Marco Fusi: the bow moves so slowly that the tone breaks into separate pulses, and pressure, contact point and speed become the material of the piece.

Personally remastered in 2019 by Dirk Serries, this tiny Tribal Ambient jewel is finally available again as an ultra limited vinyl edition.

*Limited edition of 200 copies.* Background music for the late Anthropocene: play this loudly for as long as you want or can stand. Verena Becker had always been a bit of a loner. She loved spending time alone in nature, hiking, and exploring new places. But when Verena was sixteen, she met a grizzly bear. The bear was friendly, and they became friends. Verena would often go on long walks with the bear, and they would talk about everything. One day, Verena asked the bear about gFFr. The bear did…
The starting point is E. T. A. Hoffmann's The Sandman: a world where perception and reality drift apart, and the question of identity remains unresolved. Recognition, in Hoffmann, is never quite secure. The doppelgänger is less a figure than a condition, the point at which the self can no longer vouch for itself.The first record, Lichtstimme begins in an open, almost weightless sonic world. Something still appears untouched. The music carries a sense of proximity, clarity and trust. But this sen…
Second album of Twist of Fate, the folk ambient duo of Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh) and Daniela Gherardi: guitar pieces with violin and discreet treatments; 2016.

The final recordings of Antonio Infantino, made months before his death in 2018. Twenty-one tracks captured live, with no overdubs or post-production: voice, drum and the circling pulse of Lucanian tarantism, from the Beat poet who rebuilt the trance music of Basilicata into a songbook of his own.
Dj Balli explores human pyramids from the Italian gabber scene to Catalan castells, Dahi Handi, Bo-Taoshi and the Venetian Forze d'Ercole; CD in an envelope with nine cards, November 2026.
Laura Cetilia's work evokes a sense of crossing a threshold between traditional classical music and experimental soundscapes. Within an acoustic resonance that respects the natural reverberations of each space, rippling waves of subtle disturbances create a mixed sensation of classical roots and a refreshing encounter with the unknown. This offers a glimpse into Cetilia's vast and profound world.
'ephemeral bloom' is an album of four new pieces composed by by US-based composer and cellist Laura …

In a new duo collaboration that defies conventions and background, Midori Takada and Jakob Bro took up residence in Tokyo’s Avaco Studios to record their first album, あなたに出会うまで / Until I Met You. The title, taken from a Midori Takada composition, refers to the spiritual bond that arises in every new friendship, whether in music or in life.

Born and grown over the past two years, built on Bellucci's piano and Uggeri's sounds and beats, "The Soundtrack of Your Secrets" is a work that penetrates inside the soul of anyone willing to let go. Unreservedly, without any limits. Until we are naked... looking inside ourselves. Deep inside.
"Ten lines to tell what goes on in here. Ten lines to find words for it all: for each of the panorama of shadows and color, for each of the thunderstorms of noise and sound and electric shocks, for this b…

Two of experimental music's most uncompromising minds, together at last, and never once in direct contact. Kevin Drumm and Taku Unami made Zero Talk without ever speaking to each other. It started in late 2024, when producer Jon Abbey asked Unami to master Drumm's Sheer Hellish Miasma II. Unami was thrilled: Drumm is his favorite musician. Drumm loved the result. Even then, the two never really talked, Abbey spoke to each of them separately. In mid 2025 Abbey proposed a collaborative Erst. Both …

Mystic Synthesis at the Dawn of Electronic Consciousness! Florian Fricke's visionary second album remains a towering achievement in transcendental electronics
A deep mystery surrounds both the film Nell'anno della Luna and its beguiling 1970 soundtrack, a work that hovers somewhere between the elegant swing orchestrations of an earlier era and the more adventurous sonic territories being charted by Italian composers at the close of the 1960s. Even in our current age of instant information and exhaustive online databases, almost nothing is known about the movie itself. What remains is the music: ten tracks of remarkable sophistication and inventiveness…
Romanian composer, conductor, and musicologist Iancu Dumitrescu is often described as one of the leading figures of spectral music, yet he has produced a body of powerful works resonating with explosive sound and friction that places him very much in his own universe. Dumitrescu studied under his compatriot, the conductor Sergiu Celibidache, who rarely left behind concert recordings. From him Dumitrescu absorbed phenomenology and conducting techniques, incorporating them into his own composition…
