In Dub
Brought to life in 1976 on his small imprint Stars, In Dub is one of the most sought after Tappa Zukie album. Alongside Man Ah Warrior it is a mandatory purchase for any reggae lover more akin to the spacey reverberation of the studio facilities. With his deep, rumbling bass and the prodigious engineering of King Tubby (the album was cut at his own studio) the record still maintains his adventurous tenure. This crucial re-issue present the complete original tracklist with the addictions of two e…

Despite the magnitude of these upheavals, it wasn’t until recently that I began to question how t…

Olas Curativas
Lamina is the moniker of multi-disciplinary French artist Clarice Calvo-Pinsolle. In Basque mythology, the Lamina is half-human, half-animal; a nocturnal creature that lives in caves close to water sources and creeks. Taking influence from the natural world, works of hydrofeminism, and experiences with hypnotism, on ‘Olas Curativas’ Lamina sculpts a new ecosystem to explore.
"Blood, bile, intracellular fluid; a small ocean swallowed, a wild wetland in our gut; rivulets forsaken making their way…
If We Land On Water
These two are friends. You can tell. They converse with each other, musically speaking. They connect in the way that only really happens when words aren’t needed to explain what you’re getting at. You’ll know when you listen because you’ll hear the trust between them. No fear of self expression to be found here, it’s direct.
They’ve each done great things. Brilliant releases on wonderful labels of varying types, shapes and sizes. They might even have had a hand in running some of them. You can l…
Lume
*100 copies limited edition* Nitechord is an intercontinental ambient-tech duo that has so far issued only two remixes, but they emerge in full form on Lume, a début that extols the calm and mystery of night through mid-tempo pulses and shadowy whispers. Their initial cassette demo landed in Past Inside the Present's mailbox in 2022, devoid of credits or other biographical information, accompanied only by a brief quatrain:
“We hopethere is room enoughin your worldfor this work.”
Those original r…

VHS
Tip! Do not adjust your tracking… Spun Out Of Control is proud to present its second ever release from Gary Collins. ‘VHS’ follows up Collins’ 2018’s tremor-down-the-spine inducing ‘Suzy Went Missing’ album, also on sold-out cassette, and prior releases on the Giallo Disco label. An Italo/horror disco flavoured homage to the one-time joys of renting forbidden ‘video nasties’ on cassette, each track on ‘VHS’ soundtracks an imagined movie from 1979 through to 1990. Titles including ‘Flesh Cult’, ‘…

When You Wake Up
The Danish-Chilean composer Molina (b.1992), explore the transformation between organic and synthetic musical landscapes. She weaves her own tapestry of dreamy guitar surfaces, soaring flutes and atmospheric vocals.
Al-Zulfiquar Shaheed
People believe that the magic of Muslimgauze works best with looong tracks. Think the same? Then "Al-Zulfiquar Shaheed" is exactly for you! 75 minutes of mellow eastern-style hypnotism. Consisting of only five parts, the album shows Bryn's ability to create lengthy and detailed compositions filled with Arabic percussion, droning keyboards, vocal samples and ethereal atmospheres. A strong rhythmic, yet melodic album, that should be in the collection of every Muslimgauze fan. Definitely one of Bry…
Option Explore
Option Explore, Dylan Moon’s second full-length album, is a glassy-eyed survey of pop’s playing field both past and present, and a collection of clever, colorful songs filtered through frequencies, timbres, and dreams discovered and discarded while its maker shifts from one sub-genre to the next.
Option Explore signals a significant departure from Moon’s debut 2019 album Only the Blues, which at its heart is a folk record from the forlorn fringes of psychedelia: a little mysterious, but ultimate…

Ghost Notes: Esoteric Instrumentals For Ethereal Beings
Olsen has created a monster - channeling Joe Meek, Goblin, and Broadcast in this cursed disc of groovy fugues. Traffik Island may be alive and well in these tracks, delivering premium melodies with ease, but the undead certainly had their say. Mixing terrifyingly sick beats with warped organs, sinister synths and spooky found sounds, this is the horror movie soundtrack we deserve. An instant halloween classic. - Frank Maston
