Joy, Oh I Missed You
Lucy Duncombe and Feronia Wennborg compose a modern symphony for virtual choir on 'Joy, Oh I Missed You', muddling sound poetry with Nuno Canavarro and ‘Systemische'-style machine-damaged surrealism. It's mindbogglingly good, like a mashup of Lee Gamble's 'Models', Akira Rabelais' 'Spellewauerynsherde' and Robert Ashley's timeless 'Automatic Writing’ screwed to perfection in a mode that will also appeal if you’re into work by Kara-Lis Coverdale, Nozomu Matsumoto, Theo Burt, Olli Aarni, Sydney Sp…
Between Summer & Now (a fragmented diary of depression)
*2025 stock* This record is made up of a collection of songs made over the past two years. To me, it felt disjointed and I struggled to understand the theme of the record until I began making a short film of the same name. Normally, when making an album, I take a period of time to set intentions and/or practice methods. But this record is a collection of music from various sessions, the link between them being ambient in nature. This film became a way of creating a narrative through image and te…
Ao Ser Sereno
To be human is to be in flux. It is to exist at the intersection of order and chaos, between structure and dissolution, between noise and silence. Identity does not anchor itself to a single moment; it oscillates, vibrates, dissolves, and re-emerges, like a sound echoing through time, shaping itself within the landscape of its own meta-stability. Identity is not a fixed code, nor a stable structure that accompanies us from the beginning. Were it purely contained within genetic material, identica…
Silvo
*2025 stock* 'Silvo' presents a series of musical compositions in which the artist intricately explores the evolution and transformation of harsh sounds into a musical narrative, employing dissonance, glitches and textural intricacies in a melodious manner. The creation of piercing sounds and densely inhabited spaces imbued with intensity proved a fruitful source of inspiration, evoking the sensation of capturing moments of implosion and suffocation. The distinction between cacophonous noise and…

Radiophare [ Lampe D'Ambiance ]
2005 release ** Industrial / Dark Ambient constructed from material gathered using radio wave scanning, data from radio telescopes, and archives of universe research data servers.
Defragment
2010 release ** "Andrew Hargreaves, one half of The Boats, largely sails solo on Defragment where his melodious piano playing and electronic programming are augmented in a small number of cases by the contrasting presence of Danny Norbury's cello. A sense of dub-like spaciousness permeates the mix, and there occurs an occasional dubby bass line too. But lest anyone get the wrong impression, Defragment is most assuredly not a dub album but rather a forty-minute collection of hazy piano-based sett…
Oast
Deep hypnotic ambient techno from Kommune trio George Thompson, Kyle Martin & Jonathan Nash. Recorded live in converted barn, October 2014. Four long-form compositions showcase mastery of TR-808 & dub techniques. Profound minimalist electronic journey.
Medusa
Dead Janitor is the alter-ego for Slovak electronic technician Braňo Findrik. Over the past decade, he has steadily produced a series of digital releases leading to his debut Medusa LP for Urbsounds. With an arsenal of pixelated breakbeats and stuttering samples, Dead Janitor presents an adventurous form of polymetric electronica, echoing the complex IDM explorations of the pioneering work of Aphex Twin and Autechre. Medusa is an apt title for the album that hybridizes digital and analogue techn…
Canyon Blood
Darkly romantic and steeped in candlelit dread, Canyon of Blood is the new full-length album from The Garden Gate. Built around brooding string arrangements, vintage synthesizers, and harpsichord-toned textures, the record conjures a lush, haunted landscape, part western mirage, part baroque hallucination. Laced with 60s occult psych influences and underpinned by dusty drum machines, Canyon of Blood feels like Morricone scoring a fever dream rather than a duel. It’s music that floats somewhere b…
Music for Imaginary Places
Eighth Tower Records presents Music For Imaginary Places, a triple CDR box set featuring three acclaimed compilations previously available only in digital format:
- Music for Abandoned Monasteries- Music for Haunted Asylum- Music for Alien Temples
Now finally gathered together in one physical edition, the set has been remastered and comes with all-new artwork. A sonic exploration of spectral architecture, decaying sanctuaries, and cosmic rituals beyond human understanding.
“Music for Abandoned M…
Omnis Festinatio Ex Parte Diaboli Est
One of contemporary ambient’s preeminent figures lands on its leading label, enacting a transition into a new phase of rhythmic noise and tonal shadowplay laced with peculiar sensitivities, wrangling Dilloway-influenced tape noise thru ASMR ambience, fritzed dub techno, layered vocal drone and ritualistic mantras.
Perila steps up solo with a heavily satisfying debut for West Mineral, investigating negative space and states of subconsciousness. The shift in tone feeds forward into arcane realms o…
Duvet
In the winter of 2023, Ingri Høyland and Ida Urd retreated to a Danish sommerhus, or summer house—the tiny, tidy shacks that are a central feature of the national culture, where for generations, Danes have whiled away the warm months with their families. Picture the scene: an abiding quiet all around. Gardens carpeted by snow; beach grass silvery against the silvery sky; a tendril of smoke rising from the chimney. Not another soul in earshot. This sanctuary was the origin for Høyland and Urd’s D…
The Wonder Of It All
"Choreographer Daniel Linehan’s ‘The Wonder Of It All’ radiates joy and togetherness. From cerebral to wildly energetic, the piece feels like a ritual that slowly transforms into a euphoric dance party. Creating the music for this was a joy. It brought me back to the nineties, when I was discovering electronic (dance) music. That feeling of wonder and discovery seemed an apt comparative to the sense of awe that Daniel and the dancers convey in ‘The Wonder Of It All’. Normally (if there is a ‘…
The Sea Between
1993 release ** "In October 1987, keyboardist/computer wiz Richard Teitelbaum and violinist Carlos Zingaro performed at the Festival International de Musique Actuelle de Victoriaville. The next year the label Disques Victo released The Sea Between, comprised of three improvisations from that show. For the CD reissue in 1993, the label added 18 minutes of material in the form of three excerpts from a performance in Lisbon during November 1992. Playing with electronics -- especially with computers…
5 Years
2006 release ** ""5 Years" is the venerable duo's first release since "Lammergeier" (vhf#58) in 2000. After recording and releasing nearly 20 albums between 1990 and 2000, Richard Youngs and Simon Wickham-Smith decided to try a novel and opposite approach to music making - they met once each year to record a solitary 10 minute track. The results show the duo remarkably unaffected by the half decade that elapsed - the tracks on "5 Years" reflect their long established signature mix of "real human…
Staring Back At You
2007 release ** "Subtitled "A collection of rare tracks and demos," this latest reissue remains just as essential as the others. "Staring back at you" offers true rarities. Most of the tracks present are from almost impossible-to-find compilations, but four tracks are also present in the form of demos, whose distinction from the original versions, when they exist, gives them a completely new content. A different reading that brings additional value to the Megaptera collection, which has seen a s…
