This albumย Mere Mortals is composer-producer Floating Pointsโs (Sam Shepherd) first full-length ballet score. Shepherd, who is known for mesmeric live sets that often combine acoustic and electronic instruments, wrote the work in response to a commission from Tamara Rojo, Artistic Director of San Francisco Ballet. ย
Inspired by the myth of Pandora and laced with metatextual poetry, Mere Mortals was premiered at San Franciscoโs War Memorial Opera House in January 2024, directed by Rojo, with chorโฆ

The Scholars did what they had to do. I knew too much, and it was too risky to keep me within the Walls. The Sacred Cycle cannot be touched, even by thought.ย But I had to know. I could not stop myselfโฆ
They cast me out into the desert. After two days of walking, I found a small cave where I could rest for a while. I feel strange, as if my mind has been corrupted by the Sacred Cycle. The road through the desert seems to repeat itself in an endless loop.ย I was relieved to find this cave. Maybe it โฆ
In the centuries long past, the people of the province of Culhaver used to celebrate their successful harvest of the crops by travelling across Yarrowdale moor to the mountains to give thanks to their god who had sent them rain when needed and sunshine to follow the rain. It was on this day of celebration in the mountains, one year long ago, that a fearful dragon appeared, swooping down from the sky and attacking the defenceless gathering villagers. He became known as โDagmor the Terribleโ. Spitโฆ
Oh yes! The Japanese fantasy-chiptune maniac in Turbografx-16 and SuperNes style called Black Tiger is back with a new, psychedelic album that will unleash your imagination! One of HDK clandestine (and unpaid) collaborator, the fantasy blast-beat author called Gian Spazz (sic), after smoking a too big spliff, wrote a weird story, full of plot holes, incongruous events and grammatical errors called "Spawn of the Changing Raven".ย The guy called Black Tiger has obtained the difficult task of writinโฆ
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 eโฆ
Arriving from the island of Cyprus to the HDK catalog is the Mediterranean dungeon-synth of "Idylls of the Last King." The prolific artist continues his tale of suspended narratives, ancient stones, and echoes of bygone splendor.ย "A Year at the End of Time" comprises ten tracks recounting the fall of empires through the metaphor of the changing seasons, from the frost of winter to the fading of autumn. Included with the cassette is a handy tool for creating the perfect decadent settings for yourโฆ
Somber, damp, and tactile, the sound emerges slowlyโlike water timidly seeping through rock, swelling drop by drop into a steady flow: stern drones, buried melodies, and musique concrรจte chase one another, transforming a sparse landscape into an increasingly dense, unstoppable mass. It is music that smells of rotting leaves, pine needles and wet earth after a storm โ of something ancient breathing underground...We were captivated by the sound of this dungeon-synth foray by Blood Resignation; we โฆ
Welcome to the second chapter of โGlimpse into Horror,โ a journey into the most twisted and bizarre corners of pulp horror.ย We return to the United States of the early 1950sโthe brief but glorious era of horror comics that predated the Comics Codeโa frenetic time when newsstands were overrun by walking corpses, vampires, severed heads, mad scientists, and outlandish monsters.Between 1950 and 1954, before the advent of the Comics Code Authority, American horror comics enjoyed a period of extraordโฆ

Fukuoka, early '80s. In the backstreets of Hakata, between neon lights and moonlight, three figures shaped darkness and grey shades from the Far East. The "Moonlight" EP and all the Neo Museum rarities finally collected in one vinyl release: the most ritualistic and lunar side of Japanese new wave shines again.
If it's extreme, leave it to us. Challenging the sound, playing with the sound, laughing at the sound. A docking of debut recordings from the most talked-about street artists and "sound collages & sound gags" by pro musicians with eccentric ideas. An exciting, bold, and humorous "bright" New Wave omnibus album. Featuring artists like: Kaoru Sato (EP-4), Masumi Hara & Banana, Shingo Tomoda, Chinju, Mammy, Muzeum, and more.
*100 copies limited edition* Twenty years after its original release, The Sound Of Lights When Dim remains a remarkable opening statement from Drew Sullivanโs Slow Dancing Society. First released on September 6, 2006, the eight-track album established a musical language that Sullivan would continue to explore and refine for the next two decades: slowly unfolding electronics, treated guitar, soft rhythmic movement and melody shaped less by conventional structure than by memory, atmosphere and emoโฆ
Synapscape, the German duo of Philipp Mรผnch and Tim Kniep, return with eleven tracks of heavy technoid industrial: glitching electronics, dense rhythmic machinery and dark atmospheres rooted in early EBM, with singing saw by Babsi Teichner.
'Each Day, as if It Were Your Last' marks a striking new chapter for Pallette and a complete departure from his Past Inside the Present debut, 'Pathways'.ย Released in November 2020, Pathways emerged from an introspective period in Alexander Carlo Buckleyโs life, presenting four lovely loop-based compositions shaped by hypnotic, consonant arrangements, fleeting melodies, and a patient sense of ebb and flow. Each Day, as if It Were Your Last moves beyond those meditative foundations, expanding Palโฆ
Debut by My Face Is Dancing, the family collective led by drummer and producer Federico Ughi with his young sons: avant-soul and abstract hip hop built from recordings made across the children's early years. Black vinyl, 100 copies.
Second album by Giuseppe Fantini as Zerogroove: eight short songs on obsessive drum-machine beats, dirty and minimal guitars, keyboards and synths, and a voice soaked in reverb. Retro-futurist pop from Italy, in a glass-mastered CD of 150 copies.
*150 copies limited edition* Overleaf is the new album by Paris-based musician Thรฉo Martin, following Anti Atlas, released on Laaps two years ago.ย Overleaf was recorded over the course of a few intense months in 2026. Every recording made during this period eventually found its place within the album, transformed, fragmented and reassembled, sometimes far removed from its original form. The process gradually became a kind of puzzle, built from accumulated sounds, accidents and imperfections.ย Tapโฆ
The first record on Moving Shadow, cut in 1991 by Neil Sanford and Simon Carter: three tracks of British rave psychedelia, with 'No Idea' still the perfect way into that catalogue. Reissued and remastered by Blank Mind.
Roberto Musci and Giovanni Venosta's Urban And Tribal Portraits, back in a new pressing from Soave: LP on clear vinyl, edition of 200 copies.
At the beginning of the 1980s the composer Roberto Musci returned to Italy after a decade wandering the globe - drifting between Africa, India, and the Near and Far East, studying music, making field recordings, and collecting instruments. In 1984 this journey culminated in the release of his first album, The Loa Of Music, a sonic distillation and near perโฆ
*35 copies limited edition* Written during a time of fracture and crisis, this album is about looking for a wonder in the cracks. Itโs about embracing the flawed and the frail, positing that if re-enchantment is possible, it will sprout from the small things. Built from gentle field recordings and analogue synthesizers, it offers music as a talisman; a warm, homespun garment for uncertain days.
*100 copies limited edition* Explorations into dreamy, texturally rich environments and dub flavoured landscapes through the use of rhythm and subtle melody.
A 7" on Rectangle by Charlie O. (Alain Boiziau): the Gay Pride anthem Proud To Be There, produced by Luigee Trademarq with Hammond organ and vocals, backed by two intimate songs for piano, voice and trumpet.
Another Day on Earth (2005) was Brian Enoโs first song-based album since Nerve Net in1992, and remains one of his most acclaimed solo records.

Sorcery is the ninth album for Jim Jupp, aka Belbury Poly. It grew from Juppโs love of early to mid-80s electronic music and a rediscovery of how that music had soundtracked his childhood love of all things sci-fi and fantasy. Itโs moody and melodramatic electronica rendered in bright and evocative 80s sounds. The not quite 80s tunes have Belbury Polyโs trademark earworm melodies and are ever so slightly tongue in cheek. Jupp returns to a simple line up for this album - it's a very electronic soโฆ
*2026 stock. 104 copies limited edition* La Division Technique is a French electronics project founded and directed by Philippe Saintlos, which sounds like old-school electronics, dark soundscapes, minimalist synths, industrial ambient, with analog synthesizers, filters, strings, vocals and spatial sound recordings. A meeting in 2017 with the Rotorelief label led to the release of the album "Unexpected Works, Random Systems" from tapes-K7 of the 80s period.

*150 copies limited edition* Apologizing To Ghosts is a hauntological meditation on the haunted house: its lingering detritus of memories, its cobwebs of remorse, its loops replaying in darkened corners, ghosts quietly apologizing to the ghosts of ghosts. For Varian, ghosts aren't made of ectoplasm so much as of injustice, longing and regret, the unfinished business that keeps them, and us, tethered to some moment we wish we could undo.

During the transitional period in which Coilโs primary leadership (Peter โSleazyโ Christopherson and John Balance) reorganized their creative direction by taking on new membership in the group through their inclusion of Drew McDowall, Coil took a drastic turn towards the metaphysical unknown.
