Heart Of A Wolf (2CD)
** 2022 stock ** Limited edition of 423 copies. Released in six-panel Digipak with additional insert card. This is the second collaborative album by the industrial legend the Polish duo from Torun, and is a sonic postcard from their 2011 tour in May 2011 and is composed of two, supposedly without overdub, livesets: „Live in Torun” is the first set, a long track, and is focused on the resonance of the cymabals and gong notoriously used by the players in the first part of the gig while the develop…
Cloud Holding
Cloud Holding is NYC-based Bryce Hackford’s fifth full-length work, and his first with Futura Resistenza. Seven figures emerge out of recorded improvisations with a group of musicians: Ka Baird, Shelley Burgon, Alice Cohen, Michael Hurder, Dominika Mazurová, Camilla Padgitt-Coles. The instrumental utterances (including the original instrument—the voice) of these varied talents are gently treated and coaxed by the composer, nudged into little sculptures of sound which express an always drifting …
Night Time Transmissions
'Bergur’s first solo album. Composed, developed, and recorded between the winter of 2019 and the winter of 2020; between Lithuania, Iceland, The Netherlands; in the field and in the studio; with the help of friends. For instance, with the Singing Club of Rotterdam — of which Bergur is one of the co-founders, members, and organizers — which runs as a bi- monthly-meeting, informal-group-of-people interested in the potentialities of voice and choral sound. The Singing Club appear in Night Time Tran…
C’est Disco
** 2022 limited reissue ** C'est disco is the first studio album by the Italian band Rats.

The band's line-up featured vocalist Claudia Lloyd on vocals, and on guitar t…

Le Corps Utopique
These are truly original pieces, very personal, closer to contemporary and improvised music than to ethnic music.The recordings began in autumn 2019 in Laurent Pernice's studio. Dominique Beven improvised a series of tunes, under the direction of the composer, during three different sessions distributed over time. The sound recordings were then re-arranged, mixed and electronically manipulated by Laurent Pernice to produce the final pieces to be submitted to Anima Motrix Company. The album " L…
Breakin' Is A Memory

Witness Marks - The Works Of John B. McLemore
New York painter and musician Tor Lundvall initially envisioned his 14th album, Beautiful Illusions, as an entirely instrumental affair, “inspired by memories of sitting in a church or cathedral watching the shifting sunlight through stained glass.” Although he ultimately chose to wreath the majority of the tracks with hushed, poetic vocals, his original muse still resonates. These are certainly songs of shadowplay and vaulted skies, the quiet grandeur of dusk deepening on the horizon. Lundvall …
Quatre Saisons
The general idea of this piece was to imagine a fresco comparable to a Lied, where the soloist's voice is accompanied by electronic sounds combined with concrete and instrumental sounds processed on a computer — sounds from nature and transformed orchestral sounds. Only German corresponded to the conditions I had set for myself — expressionism, distance from the text (which does not really need to be understood), musical language.Goethe's “Four Seasons” was written in the fall of 1797, after the…
Room Sound
New Noveta, the performance art group led by Keira Fox and Ellen Freed, has been described as ‘nothing if not new’ by Artsy and purveyors of ‘catastrophic distress’ by Mousse. Theirs is a project utilising all sensory, elaborately choreographed and costumed fourth-wall breaking performance art and sound, conveying contemporary hysteria: ‘intent on reproaching attitudes that otherwise pathologize ‘difference as illness’.’ (Frieze)This release documents the group’s five years of artistic collabora…

Guest Room
Francesco Serra (born 1980) is an Italian guitarist from Cagliari who lives and works in Bologna. His music research focuses on performance practices aimed at expanding the timbre qualities of the electric guitar, emphasising the evocative potential of sound and exploring possible contaminations among sound, space and image. He started recording solo under the name Trees of Mint in 2008, progressively deconstructing, in the span of three albums, his initial approach to song structure through sou…
The Tao Of Cwmdonkin Drive
"Having witnessed with awe his sagacious feline-managerial skills with music and musical psyches of many a stripe (including *cough* my own), I was certain that Andy McAuley was the right person to orchestrally illuminate my semi-inchoate ego-laced narrative. Zooming in and out of rainbow-hued classical fractal frequencies like an electronic-inculcated dervish and weaving keyboard themes (one composed by Saichairí McAuley), Udu-fronted percussion and vibraphone from the Terpsichorean Martin Pyne…
Upadesa
Ángel Rada is one of the most interesting music experimantalists of Venezuela. He started his career in the late 1960s as a member of The Gas Light, one of the big names on Venezuela's live circuit in the era, sharing the stages with other artists such as Apocalipsis, Un Dos Tres y Fuera, Vytas Brenner, Daniel Grau, Pablo Schneider, Miguel Ángel Fuster... Rada is one of the three basic artists who set an electronic music scene in Venezuela, along with Miguel Ángel Noya and Vinicio Adames. Rada h…
Musica Para El Fin De Los Cantos
This is a very serene, almost entracing record that seems to inhabit its very own space, between "classical" ambient music (Eno, Budd), "systems music" (Reich, Glass, Riley, Hassell), japanese kankyo ongaku (Hiroshi Yoshimura, Takashi Kokubo), even hinting at what would become 90's ambient electronica (B12, Nuron, SAWII-era Aphex Twin or the Fax +49-69/40464 label). Actually, Lech would be one of the few artists to perform at the first-ever Sonar Festival (Barcelona) back in 1994 (together with …
00 Time
Released on Karl Kronfeld's Synoptik Records, it was the label's only release, thus becoming a rare, sought after, private pressing. Weird, intriguing atmospheres and a plethora of synthesized sounds, sequencers, cold sounding keyboards and even mellotron parts make this a darker offering than Aphorisms Insane. Venturing into stark, spooky post-industrial territories it manages to combine the primitive cosmicism of early Tangerine Dream with the dystopic sound-scapes of Asmus Tietchens, 80's Con…
Baku: 1922
A welcome departure from their first effort, the record has gained greater reconection in recent years when contemporary audiencies could fully aprreciate the strenght and harsher direction the duo decided to take for their follow-up album. More rhythmically-oriented tunes whilst revisiting some old-favorites like Daguerrotipo or La Edad del Bronce (both off their first album, but albeit in new mixes).The Wah Wah edition has been mastered from the original tapes by Eugenio Muñoz, reproduces the …
