Of Ghosts And Goblins
Ikue Mori's album "Of Ghosts and Goblins" is a collection of instrumental miniatures inspired by Lafcadio Hearn's Japanese folk tales, featuring themes of ghosts, goblins, and the supernatural, with tracks like "Fragment," "A Passional Karma," and "Lafcadio's Garden". Lafcadio Hearn is an author who spent much of his life researching, documenting, and preserving the ancient folk tales of Japan. He published a series of books in the late 19th and early 20th century including In Ghostly Japan, Kwa…
Sexy Tears
'Sexy Tears' is a bold departure from Tristanne's (fka Tristan) critically acclaimed pop-jazz debut Wellif and lets you veer into uncharted territory, from the first tone, the bittersweet and haunting violin tones fade in on opener 'Steady Mouth'. In a split second, Tristanne lets you vanish in a dazzling matrix deep down a rabbit hole, a place where Piero Umiliani's 70s sleazy giallo era sensually resonates with Oneothrix Point Never goldwave frequencies. With a whisper of panting tension, her …
Baby, It's Cold Inside
'The fun years', comprised of multi-instrumentalists Ben Recht and Isaac Sparks, have been making music together since the turn of the century, producing intriguing interrogations of ambient, drone, post-rock, and turntablism. Originally released in 2008 on the now-defunct Barge Recordings, 'baby it’s cold inside' is perhaps the high watermark of their discography. Equally concerned with microtonal nuance and harmonic intensity, it is both a product of its time and something well past it. The ch…
Greater honeyguide
Fraufraulein, the San Francisco duo of Billy Gomberg and Andy Guthrie, are master world builders. Their work is immersive — it wraps around you like a warm coat, guiding you deep into a trance-like state. Time moves in slow circles, folds in on itself, and unspools like caught fishing line. It’s tempting to say Guthrie and Gomberg construct a new reality with their work, but I think they’re revealing the contours of familiar territory, gluing together a complicated mirror more than constructing …
Conflict / Re-Conflict
2015 release ** "What happens when music becomes a weapon? For his project "Conflict Music - The Soundtrack of World Cultures", composer and film director Christian von Borries deals with the role of music in military conflicts. In doing so, different perspectives and facets such as military training, music as weapon, music in future wars are picked up on and artistically processed. Musically, early incarnations of military march music as well as scores and compositions from distinct artists suc…
These Graves
2005 release ** "Justin Meyers of Devillock distinguishes himself from the mediocre masses with the release These Graves, or, if one combines the track titles, “The Blood From,” “These Graves,” “Weigh Forever,” “On Rotten Creatures”. To me, the mark of a good noise, experimental, or ambient disc is the ability to make me uncomfortable. To take me out of the daily comfortable reality and make me feel fear, dread, hate, melancholy – this is the reason I listen to noise. These Graves combines drone…

2007 release ** Dawid Szczesny is a sound artist located in Wroclaw, Poland. His music is mainly based on samples of old vinyl records.
Conversations
2017 release ** "Following his critically acclaimed Paraphrases album from 2012 and the more electronic based recordings as Field Rotation, Christoph Berg joins Sonic Pieces with the first new material under his own name in over four years. Conversations essentially expresses contemplation, consciousness and the urge for retreat from the sometimes overwhelming present times. The musician’s genuine approach to minimal chamber music acts as a fading scenario of nostalgia and memory to rely on, sim…
Pinche Madre
2008 release ** Limited to 100 copies. "Pinche Madre is the 2008 creation from Remoteband, released by Russian label Abgurd in a limited edition CDR. To say any more, or try to give further information would be futile. Mainly because there is not much to find, even by scouring the internet there’s no webpage, MySpace or Facebook. Hard to believe in this technological age, but Remoteband has appeared to go off the grid by not even being there in the first place.So what do we have? Well we have…

Voices Without A Sound

This album submerges a listener into the space of dream-like images and forms, makes him feel like somnambulist in the full-moon night in some haunted land. Using the treated voice samples intertwined with ambient and meditative structures, NA-DHA builds an unreal hall of sound mirrors reflecting different elements of this illusory world. 8 untitled tracks of wonderfull dream-magik-ambient."
Unforgiven Thoughts
Spite Cathedral returns with Unforgiven Thoughts, an album in which the artist delves into an experimental, dark, and deeply atmospheric sonic journey, fusing industrial, noise, drone, and post-apocalyptic textures to create a unique and disturbing soundscape. From the very first track, the album establishes an unsettling tone. Harsh, mechanical industrial sounds clash with ethereal and distorted melodies, creating a sense of controlled chaos. Spite Cathedral demonstrates a masterful command of …
Mutualismo 01
Mutualism is the pure essence of collaboration, an exchange that not only projects but also guarantees the growth of two individuals. In this bond, there is no competition; instead, a natural equilibrium emerges where both parties strengthen and complement each other. It is not about losing one's identity, but about enhancing it, allowing individualities to shine even brighter when united. It is a reminder that when two forces ally, the result is always greater than the sum of their parts. Mutua…
Krummhörn
Formed in the mid-1980s, Nostalgie Éternelle is a band that stands the test of time. This duo from Leer, a city in northwest Germany, has based their sound on post-punk, electronica, industrial-pop, minimal-wave, electro-punk and experimental, and although in their first stage they were only active from 1986 to 1992, in 2009 they came back with more strength, recording new material and touring again.
