Kolkata-based musician Nilotpal Das aka Bios Contrast's new album 'Red River', arrives as a narrative sequel to his 'Dragon Rising' LP on Hong Kong DIY label Mouhoi. The concept behind the record is a speculative historical drama and myth taking place during the deadly Kalinga War in the Mauryan Empire of India. Following his intensive 24-hour harmonium drone compositions, Das's 'Red River' uses recordings of Bell 407, a civil utility helicopter as the main body of the record together with a 47-…

‘Where is Agartha? What is the specific region in which it lies? Along what road, through what civilizations, must one walk in order to reach it?.’ - Saint-Yves d’Alveydre in 1886 Agartha, the debut full-length album by Japanese producer Wata Igarashi, is a mysterious, divine thing. Named for the mythical secret kingdom, understood as a complex maze of underground tunnels, perhaps designed by Martians who colonised the Earth tens of thousands of years ago, it’s a similarly mystical, perhaps even…

**Edition of 100** Unlike the electro-acoustic suite “Combustion” which inaugurated the catalog of Anomala Soundscapes in the split album together with Daniele Pecorelli, Mark Schaub’s new work develops on various levels articulating between very dissimilar styles and sounds. The trait d’union between these short compositions is the attempt to recreate the apocalyptic scenarios of Ballard in music, an author so dear to a certain industrial culture that here once again he returns to the center of…

**Edition of 50** Transcendent sound that floats in the ether, dragging with it memories, affections and all the resulting emotional load. Rarefied music, characterized by an impression of impalpable lightness, which in the placid undulations of "Mare Tranquillitatis" and the crystalline transparencies of "Rain People" effectively amalgamates loops, drones and guitar reverberations. On the second of the two CDs, the sound material opens up to new colors and in "Everyone" welcomes echoes of moder…

Tip, few copies available! **Edition of 100** Dissimilar works documenting different experiences. A collection of disparate live and studio recordings, sourced from field recordings and weird self-made instruments. A curious mix of acoustic and electronic sounds like many little voices buzzing and screaming in a desolate mechanic land establishing an otherwordly surreal landscape. At times bizarre, at times claustrophobic.

Tip! **100 numbered copies in black 'disco bag' cover with sticker, 180g audiophile vinyl** Active on the scene for more than two decades, Maath is the moniker of Marco Ramassotto, who briefly came to note during the early 2000s as a member of the ritualistic, musical excursions of Biasthon, as well as working under the pseudonym of Mark Schaub. Despite Maath’s many years of activity, Ramassotto has only produced a tiny number of releases under that guise, most notably “No Survivors for the New …

The remix album, with marvelously creative EDM remakes from some of the best powerbook players of the day: Mouse On Mars, Jim O’Rourke, Kid Loco, Schneider TM, Stock, Hausen & Walkman, Cornelius and The High Llamas themselves. In addition to showcasing this emerging new generation of digital masters, the treatments here also highlight an oft-undersung aspect of The High Llamas’ sound – the influence of Krautrock.

Darkened Obscurities contains the complete live set from Magasin 4 in Brussels/Belgium, the final stop of the European 14 date tour in 2024. The live set consists of four long pieces with interchangeable sounds that has been performed live since 2019 but always changed and evolved for each year. Many of the sounds may come from various tracks from studio albums, or are newly tailored for the live set, and some sounds are created by live improvisation. All sounds are manipulated and mixed live to…

The Slaying Of The Infants was the very first output from Stratvm Terror, originally released as a very limted edition demo cassette in 1994 (10-15 copies). Pulsing and beating, cold and doom power industrial electronics. Many of the tracks ended up in the first official release Germinal Chamber, released on cassette by OEC later the same year, but slightly different recordings/versions. Sleeve design mimic the design of the original demo cassette.

*300 copies limited edition* The sounds in this double CD (already available as CD + Music Cassette in the "Atrax Morgue's - Mörder Machine" Box), are the very last recordings by Marco Corbelli and was found on a couple of reels in his studio after his death. For these recordings Marco used an old Korg MS20 synthesizer which produced a continuous background noise together with the audio signal, such noise is clearly audible in the recordings. During the editing phase this hiss was kept as an int…

OEC is proudly going for the re-release of this Industrial timless masterpiece on its 45th anniversary! And after 45 the relevance of that album is incredible, it feels like it was recoded yestarday. The lack of equipment & tools has sharpened creativity. Information Overload Unit by "System Planning Korporation / << SPK >>" is simply a M.U.S.T. A reference and absolute highlight in Industrial culture and muzak!

A chronologically edited, audio document of the definitive recorded output of 'Les Sculptures Sonores', the instruments solely created by the French brothers Bernard and François Baschet, who from 1954 pioneered for over 45 years a completely new way of combining sculpture and sound. Some small, some over 20 feet high and incorporating glass rods, metal cones, wires, plastic inflatable resonators, and many other devices, these fascinating structures are not only cosmetically entrancing, but prod…

"Reflex" is Gábor Lázár's debut album on Raster. His new album is a collection of seven tracks, featuring an extended sound palette of percussions and synthesizers drawing our attention towards the essential soundscapes of techno while maintaining his distinct, uncompromising and meticulously detailed style. While the tracks do not follow traditional narratives, the album has an evolution: it gently builds up from challenging, unpredictable, and organically composed structures to linear yet play…

*200 copies limited edition* Former Pulled Apart By Horses guitarist James Adrian Brown has been tirelessly sculpting his new sonic identity since early 2021.

Twin Color - Vol 1 marks the grand return of Murcof to producing a full-length album in all its glory and generosity, nearly two decades after the release of Cosmos in 2007. Celebrated for his classical, minimalist textures and unique soundscapes, Murcof has established himself as a master of modern ambient music alongside Tim Hecker, Alva Noto, and Johann Johannsson. With this new album, Murcof takes a bold step forward, embracing a distinctly cinematic and dystopian narrative influenced by the…

Through the course of time, DSR Lines (David Edren) never loses his intimate and profound connection to the universe of modular synths. These recordings made during 2014 in a residence at the Cem/Worm studio in Rotterdam, represent a further magical compendium of his Organic Electronic Music. In particular, here he draws from his expressive arsenal the cosmic and galactic potential of the Arp 2500, which happily floating throughout. A rigorous magician of vaporous, oscillating patterns, sidereal…

"... anatomical and cellular symphonies, catharsis of invisible biochemical processes, painting the micro-dimensional flows of the subtle body or imaginary geographies of hidden micro-bodies. Here, Edrens organic electronic music is enriched with new lymphs that also vaguely recall the influences of non-European music, especially Chinese and Japanese music (stick and chimes percussions) in an intimate and twilight dimension, poised between exotic ambient and cinematic suggestions. A miniaturisti…

Oliver Coates' Throb, shiver, arrow of time is a portal into somatic chiaroscuro, aglow with the embers of imperfect memories and smudged with the plumes of internal echoes, which augment in vast, mercurial dimensions. The ten compositions of Throb, shiver, arrow of time find weightless melodies soaring across after-image gradients, while Coates reaches further to collapse the digital into the analogue and vice versa, allowing serendipity to reorganize the material and push outwards, so the musi…

"Oxide Manifesto is intended as an audio sketchbook, which explores a particular method of creating music. It aims to link obsolete machines and experimental composition. In recording it, I embraced as many techniques of working with magnetic tape as possible. I gave myself the freedom to lean into the perceived flaws of tape as a recording format. Often we hear ‘it’s not about the equipment’. But on this album the equipment is in equal focus to the music. Wow, flutter, wonky pitch, abrupt edits…

On “Love2,” the second track on Zaumne’s 'Only Good Dreams For Me', Natalia Panzer’s voice emerges from a hazy smear of a pop-song chorus: “I am touching the cold window,” she intones. “I am touching the spinning walls. It’s a way to remember what’s mine is yours, and back again.” 'Only Good Dreams For Me', Zaumne’s first release with Warm Winters Ltd., embraces such direct contact as it cycles through states, from dread to hope. The heavy air that lingered on Zaumne’s previous releases, like hu…

zakè (aka Zach Frizzell) and Tyresta (aka Nick Turner) follow their recent ambient treasury, The Worlds We Leave Behind, with Jade, a surprise companion album that teases out several themes from previous works into three long-form sonic vessels, offering some of their most affecting work across nearly an hour of reflective bliss. In the process of allowing their individual instincts to further entwine, they have created a uniquely generative kind of collaboration, where every deep drone and deli…

Twin heavyweights Kevin Richard Martin (The Bug) and Joseph Kamaru (KMRU) unite for Disconnect, a powerful study of dread, hope, and profound sonics that marries depth-trawling dub with Kamaru’s voice, ambient sensibilities, and negative space. Kevin Martin first became aware of Kenyan ambient musician KMRU “watching the short 2020 documentary Under The Bridge,” he tells us. “Which, aside from immediately finding Joseph's approach to sound and music so instantly impressive, I also found his spok…

Nigerian electronic musician and violist Ibukun Sunday debuts on Phantom Limb with Harmony / Balance, a brooding, introspective take on Afro-ambient music that follows two acclaimed digital-only albums for Phantom Limb imprint Spirituals. Based in Lagos, Ibukun Sunday has expertly positioned himself between the rarely-married cultures of ambient and West African musics. He entwines his compositions with field recordings from his native Nigeria and deeply considered philosophies of existence, hum…

*200 copies limited edition* Past Inside the Present is proud to begin its summer slate with a new, full-length suite from Color of Time, the duo comprising label veterans Kévin Séry (aka From Overseas) and Nick Turner (aka Tyresta). Each artist is known for his own kind of spacious, heart-rending drone, and on II, they occupy a sonic universe in which melancholy themes linger over drifts of harmonic guitar and arrays of intricate detail. The delicacy of these environments results from a passion…

*200 copies limited edition* Mid Sky, the first full-length collaboration between Past Inside the Present label head zakè (aka Zach Frizzell) and vocalist Angela Winter, is the result of a patient exchange of ideas and arrangements over the course of more than a year. True to its title, the album occupies a rarefied place between the terrestrial and the cosmic, as Frizzell’s organic drones and field recordings unfurl in tandem with the cascading harmonies of Winter’s otherworldly voice, which cr…

*200 copies limited edition* Kairos is the sophomore album from Berlin trio Ausklang, following the monumental, critically-acclaimed Chronos (Past Inside the Present, 2020). Throughout its eight movements, Fabian Koppri, Benjamin Sohn, and Simon Ansing play with concepts of relative time and entropy through a masterful balance of melodic post-rock and layered ambient bliss, adorning an understated frame of guitar, bass, and drums with complex, ever-evolving arrangements, ranging from glitchy ele…

*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "Storia Notturna" is a collection of music written, produced and recorded mainly in September 2021, but its origins go back in time. As far back as my University studies in the early 90s. For one of the many extra-departmental courses that my study plan in Philosophy allowed, I chose Social History and found myself studying the seminal study by Carlo Ginzburg "I Benandanti: Stregoneria e culti agrari tra Cinquecento e Seicento" (Einaudi, 1966). It was a r…

Eighth Tower Records brings to light, re-releasing on CD, this esoteric industrial gem by Capricorni Pneumatici, along with three entirely unreleased tracks.
