Musica Reservata Viva
2017 release ** Limited edition of 50/100 copies with hand-written cardboard sleeve. "The title Musica Reservata Viva refers to both Musica Elettronica Viva and the term Musica Reservata which was used to describe Roland Kayn’s work. The CDr consists of 6 tracks that I created on analog synthesizers. It was meant to be a relase for the happy few, and mostly given away to friends."
Issue 128 - Faithless (Magazine + 7", Red)
Ahead of a brilliant new album landing in September, we have the fabulous Faithless on the cover of the latest Electronic Sound, and we're combining the issue with an exclusive red vinyl seven-inch featuring two almighty groovy tracks remixed by the band's co-founder Sister Bliss. We think this is one of the most uplifting records we've ever released.
Frammenti
*150 copies limited edition* The six Fragments of this album are stages of a personal journey, stories, events or moments that marked us and stay inside us like shards, foreign objects we learned to embrace. Mirco Salvadori wrote the stories. Barbara De Dominicis sings, declaims and whispers words and excerpts of the text.
Federico Mosconi composed the music playing guitars, devices, live electronics and field recordings. 'My music would have been incomplete without Barbara and Mirco, I'd like t…
The Ninth Circle Beyond the Sun
*300 copies limited edition* The latest album from Michael Cashmore (formerly of Current 93 plus known for his work as Nature and Organisation) collects ten pieces which, as with the previous album, 'Until the End of Vibration', released by Lumberton Trading Company, draw from that magical place where crepuscular and moody soundtrack work converges with the kind of synth lines Tangerine Dream made a name for themselves with. Along the way, there are piano-led melodic swells, a couple of surprisi…
Revenge of the Speaker People
*300 copies limited edition* In 1978, at the University of London, the Physicist David T. Kemp made an unusual discovery. Kemp noticed that faint sounds, known as Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs), revealed the existence of the cochlear amplifier, a mechanism responsible for sound sensitivity and frequency resolution. This discovery proved that the ear is an active rather than passive organ. Following this discovery the experimental music world embraced these findings by incorporating them into sound…
Forbidden Questions In Space
*100 copies limited edition* Forbidden Questions in Space is a haunting, koan-inspired journey of ambient, vocal, and drone improvisations. Born from Zen riddles and cosmic wonder, Angela Winter transforms existential dread into spacious, contemplative soundscapes. It asks: How do we meet the world as it is? The result is meditative and stirring, an invitation to let go of certainty and awaken to beauty in the unknown.
"Forbidden Questions in Space emerged in 2021 when I was mixing my album lig…

Painwave
*2025 stock* Grounded on a imaginary built by the duo, Luís Neto and Pedro Pimentel, where alienation from rigid urban surroundings meets an escapism fueled fantasy and otherwordly mysticism, “Painwave” acts simultaneously as the album title and as a self-coined term that suggests the nuclear ambience of the record. Ranging from sound design infused electronic music to atmospheric jazz fusion with an ever present pop feel, delivering a quasi-cinematic experience which unfolds in a labyrinthine m…
Inaudible Works 1994-2008
What have we here? 16 pieces of hard-to-classify music, created during the period 1994-2008, a cornucopia of playful, intelligent, questing and eminently listenable electronic music from Osaka-born artist Hyu, who released two albums on Nobukazu Takemura's Childisc label, in 1999 and 2002. Although a member of the turn-of-the-century generation of artists subsumed under the rather vague term "electronica", his work stands apart in many ways, particularly in his unique exploration of microtonalit…
Lofoten
Tip! There are imagined landscapes we all carry within us—dreamed, half-remembered, or just beyond reach. Lofoten, the new album by Cate Francesca Brooks on Clay Pipe Music, is a musical reflection on one such place. Located above the Arctic Circle, Norway's Lofoten Islands are known for their dramatic peaks, open seascapes, and distinctive red fishing cabins dotting the shoreline. Though Brooks has never visited this remote northern region, it became an unexpected source of inspiration. The pro…
Youth Looks So Good On You
“When forty, I was still wearing miniskirts, extravagant patterns, pink, fluorescent colours, star shaped earrings. I walked around with my leopardskin hat, my fluffy bag, my floral outfit, until the gaze of others made me feel like it was not age appropriate anymore. Although I am still the same person I was at 16. It's the others I see changing."
There's no better way to describe ageing than through the gap that arises and continues to grow between physical reality and the specular image of the …
The Battlefield is Everywhere
*300 copies limited edition* Since the release of This World is Not My Home in 2014, Gary Mundy (Ramleh, Breathless, Broken Flag) has been releasing one new album per year by his critically acclaimed solo Kleistwahr endeavour. The idea driving this is to keep producing an album a year until he is no longer capable of doing so. While the dedication to this pirouettes starkly between insanity and an admirable stoicism, it’s quite an undertaking when one considers the sound palette Gary works from.…
The Water Garden
A buoyant masterpiece from the early 90s, "The Water Garden" was created by Okinawa-born Kojun Kokuba under the inspiring image of a "happy Asia" thriving in the sea-based trading networks of the medieval to pre-modern era, with the concept that various types of music, as well as physical goods, were distributed and dispersed across the seas connecting various parts of east and southeast Asia. Fittingly, the music here has definite and distinctive Ryukyu island roots, but is informed by a number…
Minami-kaze α Wave
This work is produced by Henry Kawahara, following the well-received Cybernetic Defiance and Orgasm: The Essential Henry Kawahara, and one of rare 'vocal pieces' produced by him is now available on one-sided 7" and digital.
"Minami-kaze α Wave (Southerly wind alpha wave)" is, as far as we know, the only 'vocal piece' that Henry Kawahara has produced, and released under the name HMD (H Music Deperception) in 1993. The song is a vocal version of the cyber-occult exotic instrumental piece "Nanpu" i…

Astral Death
2008 release ** "What the acronym means is a mystery, I do know that R.Y.N. is from the UK and consists of Pete Burn (Marzuraan) and Lee Glaister (Romance). Astral Death is the first full album after a 7" on Drone Records. I also know that Astral Death is a collection of murky ambient drones. A metallic reverberating drone and an organ chord make up opening track Conscious Patient. The constant soundpressure is dazing. The Cleansing echoes ominously but is less numbing, it's surrounding you with…
