Unknown Language
2010 release ** "Between bedroom and cyberspace, star fields and samples, the infinite measure of a minimalist journey through electronics with awareness and low-fi style, circling technology and absorbing its rhythmic essence. Like in old science fiction films, listening to "Unknown Language" is a journey through circuits and future realities, MIDI and laptops, video games and unexplored depths, where each track reproduces itself with multiple sounds and effects until reaching an hour of music,…
Songs for the Nervous System
Songs for the Nervous System is the debut full-length album by Swedish producer Autorhythm, envisioned by Joakim Forsgren, a visual artist and former bassist of several punk and rock groups, who hereby shows his remarkable skills at crafting head nodding beats and complex rhythms with his analogue vintage gear. The sleeve – designed by Danial Ali – features a stunning artwork by Christine Ödlund.
Vermilion Hours
"Scattered notes seem to stretch time, their repetition and countless combinations evoking (or invoking?) the infinite iridescence of light that accompanies dawn—a ritual as inevitable as it is unpredictable. With his Musique pour le lever du jour, composed over two years and completed in 2017, Melaine Dalibert once described his aim as creating "an infinite piece," without beginning or end. Subtle, intangible, both complex and minimal, the variations forming this hour-long composition—dedicated…
Bio-Mechanik. Aural tribute to the art of H.R. Giger
Few artists have captured the unsettling beauty of the fusion between flesh and machine as hauntingly as Hans Ruedi Giger. His biomechanical visions, cathedrals of bone and chrome, embryonic nightmares suspended in steel wombs, eroticism bound in cold circuitry, have etched themselves into the collective unconscious. Giger unveiled a world that feels eerily familiar, as if drawn from the depths of a shared ancestral dream or a post-human future already unfolding.  Born in Chur, Switzerland, in 1…

LSD046
LSD046 is a compilation released on the renowned Light Sounds Dark label, known for its mysterious and evocative approach to experimental music. This single-disc album delivers around 40 minutes of captivating soundscapes, focusing on gothic, archaic atmospheres and indescribable late-night moods—from the shadowy edges of electronic music to haunting drone, alien-like chatter, and unsettling anti-gravity textures. The album eschews traditional track listings, instead inviting the listener into a…
A Mineral Compound Fountain Of Youth
A Mineral Compound: Fountain Of Youth is an expansive compilation released on Light Sounds Dark, renowned for unearthing the obscure corners of experimental music. This 3LP set ventures deep into a shadowy sonic world, fusing DIY electronics, avant-noise, post-punk, ambient, industrial, and classical influences. Listeners are enveloped in nearly two hours of dense, faceless murk curated from Light Sounds Dark’s mysterious vaults—a journey through dank, musty soundscapes shaped by private-press o…
Useza
In English, the Shona word "Useza" means someone of great skill, meticulousness, and precision, and it perfectly illuminates Sekuru Chaka Chawasarira's lifelong practice. The eminent Zimbabwean artist and educator is among the last remaining masters of the matepe, a large mbira-style instrument that's played with both thumbs and index fingers to expand its rhythmelodic complexity. And on 'Useza', he fully demonstrates the matepe's illusory potential, overdubbing hypnotic sequences to provoke shi…
Mesmerine 111
Illustrious Company presents... Mesmerine 111. This is a 3D soundscape based on / inspired by the frequency 111Hz, which has been historically and scientifically proven to induce a trance-like state. Findings of MRI scans suggest that at exactly 111hz, the brain switches off the prefrontal cortex, deactivating the language centre, and temporarily switches from left to right-sided dominance, which is responsible for intuition, creativity, holistic processing, inducing a state of meditation or a t…
Balanced
2008 release ** Featuring: Chris Tenz, Kshatriy, Cyclofillydea, Places, Jukeen, Arexx, Places, Lunar Abyss Deus Organum vs. Kadegu, I/DEX, Harmash, Alexander Daf.
The Disintegration Loops
Since the turn of this century, perhaps no other modern composition has had a more resonant healing effect than The Disintegration Loops. Composer William Basinski’s deteriorating analog tape loops evolved from melodic symphonies to melancholic silence over a span of time that uncannily turned passing minutes into pensive lifetimes. In her foreword for the new box set reissue of The Disintegration Loops, the pioneering multimedia storyteller, Laurie Anderson, describes the impact of this transfo…
Fireproof In 8 Parts + Part 9
2007 release ** Oversized cardboard sleeve. "With his fourth solo-release, Reto Mäder aka RM74 takes us on a fevery missionary journey which is driven by an unholy quest for saturation and leads us into the dark places where tortured souls dwell. Unpredictably muckraking in the shoals of timeless abysses, RM74 seeks to kindle the supressed fires of passion. Nothing less! To do justice to this mission, Mäder interweaves acoustic instruments such as an organ, a piano, a bassguitar or a harp with a…
61:16
2010 release ** Comes with 6"x6" illustrated booklet.
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…

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…
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…
