Rr·concerrt
*150 copies limited edition* Like all concerts by Conrad Schnitzler, this one is unpredictable and always captivatingly beautiful. A masterfully crafted mix of four solo works, all located in close proximity to the RR album itself. There are few such works in the entire discography, and most of them are included in our top 100.
Memory
*150 copies limited edition* 'Memory' is a saturated, multifaceted poem, a work of sound art set against a backdrop of shimmering cosmic space. It is a sonic excursion into memory, reflecting both the light and the darkness of our consciousness. Moving forward and transcending many boundaries, Conrad Schnitzler remains true to the mood established at the very beginning of this 60-minute cinematic work.

Live at Somewhere
"I call it ‘the Shadow Pattern Vignette’. A fragmentary and pleasingly non-discriminatory exercise in audio capture which, when sequenced, compiled or arranged alongside other such vignettes, leads to the finished work of Nate Ivanco’s Shadow Pattern. You can reach into the hermetic depths of his Hamilton Tapes micro label, recent transatlantic appearances via Infant Tree, Chocolate Monk or adhuman, or indeed, this new LP ‘Live at Somewhere’ and find the Shadow Pattern Vignette. Forever in evide…

Closed for the Festival
On Closed For The Festival, MIDI Janitor turns childhood memories of a Donegal Christian commune into warped, luminous hauntology: junkyard beats, dream‑logic electronics and uncanny “thin places” where pastoral bliss slips into quietly sinister wonder.
Simultaneous
Simultaneous reveals Pamela Z’s fascination with the intersection of speech and music, blending voice, electronics, chamber ensemble, and video into an immersive, multi-layered exploration. Through looping, gesture control, and narrative fragments, the piece meditates on simultaneity—how overlapping events and speech form new harmonies and meaning.
しずくたち / Shizukutachi
From the 1950s, Masaaki Takano (1927-2007) worked as a freelance "sound planner," mainly creating sound effects for stage productions. In the mid-1980s he began performances called "Sound Play" where he would perform on his own self-created sound instruments and his collection of ethnic instruments. Growing out of his work with sound effects, he became obsessed with the recording of natural sounds from the 1970s onwards, and this album "Shizukutachi" is a record of a high-quality recording of wa…
Three:four Split Series Volume 3
2025 Stock. Last copies. Annelies Monseré always has had the urge to record many versions of one song and then remaining deeply in doubt which version to choose. For this release, she did not chose. (Though this is not completely true - there are still more versions of the song - including an a cappella version) She was interested in how different arrangements, tempo's, melodies and structures changed the expressive and aesthetic qualities of the song, convinced that no version is more 'essentia…
Harkening Critters
Forms Of Minutiae presents 'Harkening Critters', the label’s second non-profit compilation of field recordings and soundscape compositions highlighting, this time, the incredible variety of animal signals.
De Bon Astre
Tip! Under the moniker Sourdure, Ernest Bergez works within a hybrid sound field, combining raw electronics (modular synths, feedback), acoustic instruments (violin, voice, foot percussion), and non-musical sounds (field recording, spoken voice). As a guideline, he keeps an underlying effort to melt experiment into popular music and vice versa, taking traditional songs and dancehall themes from the French Massif Central area as the starting point for experimentationFor the first time, I wrote a …
Apollo And Marsyas: Het Apollohuis 1980-1997 An Anthology Of New

From over 500 perfo…
At Source
Caterina Barbieri & Bendik Giske's At Source resounds music as wellspring, that which is essential and unknowable, and yet utterly primary. It finds two acclaimed composer-musicians building a world together in self-contained collaboration between analogue synthesis and an extended approach to the saxophone that conjures its own universe of sound. It is at once intimate and cosmic, drawing on the challenges and possibilities of their artistic exchange, tearing down technique to access all the ex…

Sun Masks Remixes
*2023 stock* The San Francisco label Dark Entries has released over 100 records in the past few years, most of them reissues of synth music from the '80s. Given the sheer volume of their output, it would be easy to miss the special attention they gave to one artist: Lena Platonos, a Greek avant-garde musician influential in her time but under-appreciated today (in other words, exactly the kind of figure that makes reissues worthwhile). Since 2015, Dark Entries reissued two of Platonos's albums, …

Copenhagen, Bordeaux 1966 & Newport 1967 Live First Release
"These powerful performances from Copenhagen and Bordeaux, released officially here for the first time, and the Newport Festival in the U.S., provide further evidence of the music’s collective necessity – the true ensemble coordination which Ayler adopted, elaborated and romanticized, from his awareness of historic New Orleans precedents." - Art Lange
