The Blind Sublime
Andrew Ostler’s fifth album for the Expert Sleepers label continues his trajectory away from a sound largely based on synthesizers towards orchestral textures and heavily processed saxophone. Building on the string arrangements of his previous LP “Dots on a Disk of Snow”, and taking a heavy dose of sax drone from the earlier “Four Drones for Saxophone and Modular Synthesizer”, this record also adds a full choir, taking the music to another level of spiritual intensity.
The first side of the LP p…
Quiet Pieces
'Quiet Pieces' initiates Abul Mogard’s personal imprint Soft Echoes with a definitive self-portrait of calm, contemplative, and discreet inner landscapes made audible. It is the first solo album on vinyl in four years.
Country Music
*150 copies limited edition* Written during a period of geographic and artistic transition, Country Music traces Severin Black’s movement from London to Berlin, unfolding through cycles of isolation and adaptation. Composed on the city’s periphery, the album’s material was continually dismantled and reassembled, reflecting a process of both artistic and personal reconstruction. The album marks a shift in production methodology, moving away from the immediacy of summed live takes toward a more de…
Lars Boutrup's Music For Keyboards
2005 release ** "The man behind the album is the keyboard player and composer Lars Boutrup. After years in the business with rock, silent movie music and classical music. Performance as well as composing, in all sorts of different constellelations. Lars Boutrup is now releasing his first solo album. Music for Keyboards is an album with both beautiful numbers to reflect on and sense the universe to. There are also moments where you can have a laugh and freak out to funny synthesizer sounds and me…
Sort By Dragging
2016 release ** "Bremen artist Ulli Bomans is releasing his second album under his real name,‘Sort By Dragging,’ on the Berlin-based Shitkatapult label. His debut album ‘Riven’ followed a long series of music productions under his alias Schieres and numerous maxis, albums, remixes and tours together with Marco Haas aka T.Raumschmiere and their band of electronic thunder experiments, Shrubbn!!.

Comrades In Lost...
2004 release ** 'Comrades in Lost' is the multimedia / audio CD, which is created with an aim to introduce people to latvian industrial music. Sound material presents each musician’s search in the field of industrial music, what comes from a personal belief and experience. Soundscape shows influences of martial industrial, power electronics and IDM, but can’t be placed in a frame of a particular style. The sound remains individual and satiated, with a touch of experiment, but not experimental. T…
Roma, Wien.
2001 release ** "Mushroom’s Patience is possibly one of those what you call best kept secrets within the music world… well known by connoisseurs and totally unknown to most… The core member, and mastermind, of the band is Raffaele Cerroni and the band is already active since the early 1980’s. In the early 2000’s they gained some fame in the industrial scene due to the signing to Hau Ruck!. This despite their music being a weird psychedelic blend of jazz, electronic music and any sound the musici…
Oh! You Are So Naive!
2006 release ** "Oh! You are so naive! is the fourth album released by Mirt outside of the parent Brasil & the Gallowbrothers Band, and previously One Inch of Shadow. The album is a continuation of the path begun on the last mini-album – “Most”. This time, however, the whole is not based on a specific place, but on the fascination with twentieth-century revolutions and socialist utopia. Six songs about a revolt that never took place, about the hopeless immobility of today's rebels camouflaged so…
Above The Sky
2010 release ** "Part One : Back in March 2006 Monos performed their one and only live show, comprised on the day of Darren Tate, Colin Potter and Paul Bradley. The show is recorded on a handheld recorder placed somewhere within the audience by Darius Akashic. Sometime later (probably 2007 no one can remember exactly) the material captured on that recording is revisited in the studio where the track (A Place Of Voices) is recreated over a couple of afternoons and many cups of tea. After that, no…

2003 release ** Limited edition of 140 copies. The recording covers almost all sides of Bardoseneticcube sonority: from noise ambient to shamanic industrial techno.
A Brief Audio History Of Agriculture
2005 release ** "This project began with an unlikely source: a t-shirt, which read 'if you eat, you have an interest in agriculture.' From conversations about the ways in which agriculture and farming practices have shaped our lives in North America derived primal ideas on a language to represent agriculture. Early in the spring of 2004, as the snow was just melting, I made some recordings of myself "playing" a derelict rusty piece of farm machinery abandon in a field. I was quite taken with the…
Assisted Self-Sterilization
2007 release ** "Finns have joined their forces to restrict the birth control. Operation, lasting 55 minutes and from the operating room of Bizarre Uproar and Gelsomina, one goes out fresh and carelessly looking to the future. We have 4 pieces of energizing harsh noise chaos. The first piece starts with a few shouted words and here we go. The name of the song because of my lack of knowledge of Finnish language remains unknown. The fact is that there are many metal things "torture" - chains, tins…
Decline
2010 release ** "The collaboration between the two industrial/dark ambient polish projects is a mesmerizing production of sorrow. The album is inspired by two poems: 'Madman' and 'Modern Icarus', aiming to tale the descending into the pits of madness of a man. However the result is not so strongly conceptual and linear and, honestly, sounds more like the descending into despair and the self-consciousness of it; but the technical level of the production is amazing and the album sounds good. The a…
Incidental Music
2012 release ** "The heart of Incidental Music is the acoustic guitar: melodies, chords, drones, and percussive sounds sometimes used in a straightforward manner, while at other times abstracted and manipulated to beautiful effect. Upon this foundation the palette of sounds expands quietly to include various small acoustic instruments and vinyl samples. The result is an album more reserved and patient than any in The Green Kingdom's repertoire. These minimal themes serve as an apt score to the s…
Детство Гамлета
2007 release ** "The musicians themselves say that this album reveals the band's sound at most. They have used their classical instruments: guitar, bass, bayan (accordion), violin, keyboards and human voices. For the first time here's female voice - of Larisa Archipetskaya - "precticing witch in third generation" - as the musicians say. Guest appearances also include Anthesteria, Misery and Wolfsblood. The new album emphasizes the emotional saturation, it immerses the listener in melancholy and …
Lobelia
2011 release ** "Black Eagle Child has the uncanny ability to marry pastoral post-folk – high humidity front porch rambles to sparse and exploratory arpeggios that are thick with pathos and tinged with nostalgia for the disappearing horizon of definable memories – and soaring guitar lines that ascend above the field recordings and layers of looped acoustic and electric guitars. Lobelia creates emotional landscapes of great loss combined with those flying dreams that we have where we are soaring …

Originally released on CD this is the first ever vinyl issue, remastered by Rashad Becker. 2001 is a landmark year for the artist following a wave of success from the notable outfit Väisänen formed alongside Mika Vanio, Pan Sonic (as they were now known then).

EP3
Tip! Jakarta’s avant-garde collective Uwalmassa returns with EP3, a mesmerizing 12” vinyl release that further cements their status as pioneers redefining the boundaries of gamelan tradition. Released via the forward-thinking Sundial imprint, this EP is not merely a collection of tracks but a bold manifesto—a sonic bridge between Indonesia’s ritualistic past and its electrifying, experimental future.
For the uninitiated, Uwalmassa operates at the intersection of reverence and rebellion. Rooted i…
When Worlds Collide (2LP)
This is a limited double-LP collection of artists who've been on either Fourth Dimension Records or Lumberton Trading Company, or are even indirectly associated. The title, based on the name of a childhood '50s sci-fi film favourite, not only reflects the bringing together of these two labels but also the fact that most of the artists they are concerned with tend to navigate a wide range of ideas and approaches. The 2LP also began as a reflection of the two labels coming together on 18 May 2024 …
