Awakened To Never Sleep Again (CDr)
2001 release ** TCOB continue to create some great, minimal and intriguing music. Stripped bare, with very little going on, this is nevertheless a mighty work. ERIC KESNER, the guy behind TCOB, goes to great lengths to let people know that this is purely a guitar album with just one sample appearing on the last track. You may not think this worth mentioning, but when you hear this music you'll realise why. Mutated beyond nearly anything else you'll ever hear on this instrument, it's impossible…
III
2009 release ** ÜL was formed in 2006 by Argentinians Alan Courtis (Reynols), Fernando Perales and Charly Zaragoza. They have performed live many times in Argentina and released two albums: "Astropecuario" on the Scottish label Pjorn Records and "II" on the Argentinian Facon Records. This is their third disk containing material recorded in 2007. The goal of ÜL is the exploration of timbric possibilities of electric guitars in their own way, combining elements of noise, drone music and free ato…
Nature Stands Aside
2011 release ** David Brown returns with the new Candlesnuffer album 'Nature Stands Aside', a collaboration with the Dutch guitarist Lukas Simonis recorded in Rotterdam two years ago. In co-operation with Lukas' record label z6, this album showcases Dave's extended guitar techniques head to head against the noise blasted manipulations from Mr Simonis. Inspired by Rosamund Purcell’s study 'Special Cases', the various improvisations that take shape throughout the course of the album express the …
Subito energia
2010 release ** Special cardboard sleeve. WK569 (Ezio Martinazzi- Federico Troncatti- Pier Enrico Villa), sound/visual composition with futurist echoes. Escape velocity, the second cosmic velocity of tangent dissipative force. Rolling, sliding friction, static rotations, rapid fixities of steel, cyclical involutions. Fading rhythms in dynamic curves contract and expand in multifaceted space-time, accelerating radiant yet immobile pulsations, as maximum radial energy dissipation, tending to ze…
Kouhei Matsunaga / Niko Skorpio
2004 release ** The eagerly expected split album of Niko Skorpio & Kouhei Matsunaga! With its full 74 minutes and numerous collaborations it covers many areas of electronic and experimental music, from chilling ambience to high energy noise freakouts and from trapezoidal rhythms to plain weird alien atmospheres. Comes with a particular magickal wibe and underground spirit.
Breath Of Earth
2008 release ** Hypnoz is a project of Dmitry Zubov, a musician from Moscow suburb Fryazino, the town that endowed the lovers of post-industrial music with such names as Hum and Staruha Mha. His first composition was recorded in 1993, and during its existence Hypnoz has released one CD on the Moscow label Insofar Vapour Bulk, which gathered tracks from different periods, a couple of very limited CD-Rs, and participated on the compilation "Iznutri" by the Ewers Tonkunst label with a fragment of a…
Air Signs
*100 copies limited edition* The pieces on air signs are based on fairly minimal guitar loops with overlapping swells and melodies. Inspired by the hawk on the cover, which landed right outside the window at my workplace in a hectic area of downtown Toronto, the pieces are light and airy, reflecting the stillness of our natural surroundings in the midst of human made chaos.
The guitar loops on the album are mostly processed with a Chase Bliss Lossy pedal as well as a Vongon Paragraphs filter bot…
To Those Lost in the Woods
*100 copies limited edition* A tense musical and poetic journey through the night from Uhushuhu and Prorok. Who dwells in this world? Who gradually becomes our constant companion here? Grass, sand; a hand, a candle; wool, a fish; fire, a wave; moss, the Moon; grass, a river; ice, snow; clouds, stones – hypnotic images of a lullaby whispered to a traveler lost in a stream of sound. However, paraphrasing a well-known proverb, it is impossible to put to sleep someone who is already asleep.
Blobs
Ambient Library Music for Woodwind and Synthesiser. A 9 track album inspired by a birthday card Greg's 4 year old son Leo drew for his mum earlier this year. This album is an aural delight of unusual sounds. Kind of like a mix of Satoshi & Makoto, Hiroshi Yoshimura, Hiroki Kikuta and the Karl Jenkins and Mike Ratledge soundtrack to 80's children's Television show 'Button Moon'.
Tides
*2026 stock* Originally released in 2020 as a double 12", Tides marked Joachim Spieth’s second full-length album on his Affin imprint. The record quickly sold out and has now been reissued as a carefully crafted CD edition presented in a 6-panel digipak.
The album unfolds across eight tracks, shaped by endlessly interwoven layers and subtle shifts of tone, tracing a path between immersive, melancholic, and euphoric moments. Flowing textures and atmospheric depth merge into a vivid emotional land…
Hadayro
* Edition of 199 copies * Originally released on cassette in 1985, H·A·D·A·Y·R·O is a landmark of Japanese noise music. It documents the early vision of Solmania and the singular sonic approach of Masahiko Ohno. For years, it remained a cult artifact among collectors and underground enthusiasts. This vinyl edition renews its impact, feeling more like a rebirth than a simple reissue. Solmania was far more than a band; it was Masahiko Ohno’s personal sound laboratory. At the heart of the album are…
Yoshinotsune
* Edition of 199 copies * Between 1999 and 2000. By the early 2000s, Merzbow had entered a markedly new phase. The tape collages, junk electronics, and analogue chains that had defined his work across the 1980s and 1990s gave way to a digital practice built around laptop, software processing, and a rigorously composed approach to harsh noise. Across releases such as Merzbeat (2002), Animal Magnetism (2003), and the present album, Masami Akita reorganised his vocabulary around dense, sculpted str…
The Human Race Was Restored To Life Repeatedly
* Edition of 199 copies * Government Alpha, the project of Yasutoshi Yoshida, is one of the central figures in Japanese harsh noise, emerging from Tokyo's early 1990s underground scene. Through his Xerxes label, he developed a style that is both extreme and meticulously constructed, balancing ferocity and precision with remarkable control. Even at its most chaotic, every sonic eruption feels carefully placed.
Originally released on cassette in 1994, The Human Race Was Restored To Life Repeatedly…
Paradessence
Paradessence, Visible Cloaks’ third full length, is a work of emergence and illusion. The album’s fourteen songs shift, heave, and shimmer against a faintly luminous backdrop of night, a cavernous space shaped by sparse hyperreal representations of the natural world. The arrangements are simultaneously grandiose and fragile, both an inversion and culmination of what came before and as adventurous as anything they’ve produced so far.Since transforming from Cloaks to Visible Cloaks in 2014, Spence…
Wave Salt +7
*100 copies limited edition* Josh Mason’s new collection, "Wave Salt +7," emerges from an oblique origin. Unearthed from a dormant hard drive, it documents a set of work sessions only partially recoverable, their original continuity and intent fractured by time and technical failure. What remains is a constellation of mercurial gestures that proves, against all odds, to be entirely consonant with Mason’s ongoing musical concerns.
In a sense, the very condition of partiality proves generative, wi…
Till Human Voices Wake Us
*150 copies limited edition* Originally released in 2014 on cassette and digital only, Till Human Voices Wake Us was the first album by the Iranian artist on Umor Rex. It became a key work in our catalog, and now, 12 years later, it is available on vinyl for the first time. This is the first in a series of four special, limited reissues to be released in 2026 to mark the 20th anniversary of Umor Rex.
Till Human Voices Wake Us comprises ten tracks with a clear and carefully structured script, bas…

The project is part of Hijokaidan’s long‑running “Kaidan” (Staircase) series, which pairs the band with diverse guest artists, from idols to other avant‑garde acts.

Rubycon (50th Anniversary Edition)
50th Anniversary edition of the legendary album ‘Rubycon’ by Tangerine Dream. Widely regarded as one of their finest albums, ‘Rubycon’ was the band’s second album for Virgin Records and comprised two long pieces which pioneered the use of sequencers and synthesiser technology and produced some of the finest ambient music ever recorded. The record was also their highest UK charting release, reaching number 10 on the UK charts.
This new edition features the remastered original stereo mix, along wi…
Fog On My Brain/Figure It Out
Match made in heaven collaborative hit single from New Zealand-based artists Claire Mahoney (Thistle Group) and Benedict Quilter (P Wits). Recorded and mixed by Stefan Neville, mastered for vinyl by Lasse Marhaug. 45rpm, edition of 200 copies.
