We Could For Hours
2008 release ** 199 copies limited edition. Original 2007 CD copies repackaged in a new cover. The old A Silent Place warehouse was flooded by water, so a big amount of goods has been destroyed, in particular the original covers and all printed matters. Few original CD copies were saved and now found, so a new edition has been released. Packaged in a new redesigned cover. "We Could For Hours is instability. It represents the will to open the gates of unknown. It is the dark, whispered sounds and…

For this release Fabio plays mono synths and FM synth and effects.

Another true gem of deep electronic, ambient and cosmic music from Fabio Orsi! The album is available…
Ploutonion
*150 copies limited edition* "One to Many, Brightness to Darkness, Memory to Oblivion.Pluton Helios or Apollo Helios? When Massimo Pupillo and ILIOS visited the ancient site of Eleusis, Greece in 2019, Ploutonion (the entrance to the underworld) was their final destination. Recordings of the Ploutonion project started right after and were heavily inspired from the juxtaposition of the ancient and current state of things. The entrance to the underworld does not produce any poisonous emissions any…
NY VIII
The motion and speed of a metropolis is captured on this collage-style disc. MJE sends field recordings and incidental music to Cyess Afxzs who provides further processing. 6-panel CD digipak is indexed as separate tracks and includes an additional epilogue.
Abduction Of Mind
Originally released in 1990 and taken from the second and third DSIP recording sessions. Surreal industrial vignettes built upon blown-out loops and electronic delirium, dated by its technology to the late 1980s yet bearing a striking resemblance to present-day plunderphonics.
Two different editions of AOM were published simultaneously by IRRE Tapes (Germany) and Audiofile Tapes (US), which included separate / unique mixes of the final track on the cassette "Chorion-Biopsie". Both mixes of the t…
Requiem
As first released in 1987 it served fittingly as a requiem or death rattle to the ZI recording project - not quite a compilation but a repurposing of both familiar and unreleased material, juxtaposed with choral music and stolen dialogue from Tarkovsky. 6-panel CD digipak includes Side A and B as indexed tracks as well as an extended "Nichts" session.
Nati Infiniti
Following up on 2021’s Scuro Chiaro, Nati Infiniti is a 40-minute piece split into five movements, based on an immersive audio installation that Cortini originally created for the Sónar Lisboa festival in 2022 where it was presented across four floors of the Museu de Lisboa’s Moagem. Cortini later debuted the live performance at Berlin’s Atonal festival in 2023, reimagining the work as a unique, evolving dialogue. The record is mixed by Grammy nominated recording engineer, producer, and mixer Ma…

Trouvé Perdu
*100 copies limited edition* For his 4th solo album, Gilles Poizat continues his highly personal musical adventures, finding a fertile partner in interactive electronics. Twists, bounces, suspensions, random rhythms, multiple modulations. The sounds he plays come back transformed into a mutant orchestra, pulsing and chaotising his floating songs and stimulating his improvisations.
Lewis Spybey
From out of nowhere comes a unique collaborative album from Edvard Graham Lewis (Wire) & Mark Spybey (Zoviet France). Mixing lush electronic rhythms, sonic collage, ambient soundscapes and manipulated field recordings, these six compositions form an album with a strong identity. That this is such a vital and fertile partnership should come as no surprise. After all, both men have made careers out of creating confidently questing musics. Lewis with Wire, He Said, Hox, Dome etc. and Spybey with De…

Jardin Au Fou
Composer/poet Hans-Joachim Roedelius (Kluster, Cluster, Harmonia) is one of the most prolific musicians of the German avant-garde and a key figure in the birth of Krautrock, synthesizer pop and ambient music. Jardin Au Fou is his second solo album, originally issued in 1979 on France's Egg label, and produced by former Tangerine Dream member Peter Baumann. This record was all the more noteworthy as it bore no resemblance whatsoever to what was expected of avant-garde electronica and displayed no…

Objects In Mirrors Are Closer Than They Appear
Dark Entries calls on Philadelphia experimental duo The Ghostwriters to resurrect their 1981 LP of minimalist mayhem, Objects In Mirrors Are Closer Than They Appear. The late Buchla maestro Charles Cohen and multi-instrumentalist Jeff Cain joined up in 1971 to craft electroacoustic chaos as Anomali, later renaming themselves The Ghostwriters. Their collaborations with choreographers and visual media artists led to their singular style, straddling improvisation and composition, the oneiric and th…
Finomehanika
Tip! An essential repress of the monumental 2020 album. Finomehanika was Rijeka-based Robert Merlak's first solo release in two decades since "Albumski" on pioneering avant-garde techno label Phthalo which put him on the map next to fellow artists as diverse as Dntel, Daedelus and James 'V/Vm' Kirby.
Merging piano and field recordings, Merlak moves between musique concrete, ambient, and neo classical, crafting great layers of depth and ambience combining the frayed melancholia of Vladislav Delay…
Ōki-sa

Sharing a mutual admiration for their previous works, they decided to meet at Soundbar Patrol in Sangenjaya for a series of improvisational sessions.
The album contains a chro…
Àlááfíà
Honour’s debut album is a ligament stretching from Lagos to London and to New York, curling across the diaspora and brushing the darker hues of blues, hip-hop, free jazz, ambient, gospel with Christian mythology and Yoruba folklore. As cinematic as it is painterly, Àlàáfíà is a meditation on themes of life, death and love that pulls inspiration from the poetic profundity of God, remembered dreams, unexpected casual conversations, field recordings, literature, ephemera, and personal archives. The…
