The Secret Garden
2025 stock Protein, registered in every day life as tax payer Tobias Laemmert, released his first official studio album "Süss" in 2001. Mathias Modica, the Gomma label boss, heard Protein's tape by chance during a taxi ride and instantly offered him a contract.

Warm Former
2025 stock Los Angeles-based duo Sana Shenai began in 2009 when their Dublab radio-affiliated ambient quintet Golden Hits went on hiatus.

Across eight long-form pieces, Valera Hip sculpts immersive environments that blur the boundary between documentary realism and imaginative reconstruction. Drawing upon authentic field recordings—rustling leaves, distant voices, shifting wind—as both texture and thematic anchor, the al…
Ritualer, Blot Och Botgöring
**2025 Stock** Ritualer, Blot Och Botgöring stands as the uncompromising debut of Trepaneringsritualen—Thomas Martin Ekelund’s celebrated project that laces religious dread, magick, and esoteric sorrow into the very fabric of death industrial.

Motinai
With Motinai, Kreiviskai turns the archetype of Eastern European neofolk inside out, tracing a path from minimal acoustic beauty to expansive, genre-defying hybridization. The album’s roots sink deep into folk tradition—acoustic guitar, voice, and drums generate moments of stark vulnerability, particularly on the final passages of tracks such as “Creation.” Even at its most stripped-down, the music radiates a kind of humble intensity, the melodies unspooling with deliberate pacing and haunting f…
