Astral Disaster
At the turn of the millennium the original „Astral Disaster“ subcription-only vinyl release was somewhat of an Unholy Grail for Coil collectors! Virtually unobtainable in its original fiercely limited format of only 99 copies, it is the only album apart from the original „Musick to play in the Dark“ record to combine the genius of Balance and Sleazy with both Drew McDowall and Thighpaulsandra's talents.
Like „Musick“ it is an essentially tidal/lunar record with literal washes of sound enveloping…
Sara Dale's Sensual Massage
Sara Dale's Sensual Massage was a delightful erotic video with a mystic soundtrack by Coil. Quite unusual for the band dreamy ambient, almost spa-relaxed soft harmonies, bland tribal rhythms, chimes, and birdsong but still with dark mysterious and inimitable Coil musick's charm. However, the second part of the album explores more rhythmic structures that remind 'Gay Man's Guide...' soundtrack. Besides the OST recordings, the edition includes bonus tracks from the "Basilisk prod.'s" era: “Theme …
Omen Of The End
This autumn brings Omen of the End, where Regen Graves (Italian metal musician, mostly known for his work in Abysmal Grief) and Koldvoid unite to forge the darkest ambient split album possible. From the abyss, Regen Graves weaves hallucinatory synth incantations in the lineage of the vintage era of dark ambient, while Koldvoid's cinematic dread drifts like a phantom through haunted valleys of dream and decay.
Their communion becomes Omen of the End, a split album that opens a rift where time dis…

Shadow Machine
Shadow Machine is the first CD by Tom Hamilton and Bruce Eisenbeil, who began playing music together in 2007. Coherence without predictability, speed without tempo, direction without a roadmap - an unlikely foray into the world of out-jazz and free improvisation.
It's a duo that thwarts expectations of its specific instrumentation. The artists hybridize the language of electronic sound through Eisenbeil's guitar and Hamilton's virtual analog synthesizer, and the live-in-the-studio tracks insure …
Trios
Trios is a collaboration between five musicians, over time, and over space. It combines instrumental and electronic improvisation with non-real-time computer processing and editing. Chris Mann, Douglas Repetto, and Larry Polansky recorded several hours of live improvised material in one session. Months later Repetto, Polansky, and Christian Wolff recorded some more.
The recordings were then sent off to Tom Erbe, who culled interesting sections from both sessions and then processed, edited, and m…
Canopies + Cathedrals
Canopies : A roof-like covering of trees enclosing a large or wide natural space. Cathedral : ;Large edifice usually of stone, enclosing space reserved for spiritual contemplation. Vertical structures that strive for light and open spaces, defying gravity, and reason.
A Tarkosvsky-esque transcendence of spirit and nature, time imprinted on an intertwining of sap and stone, branch and pillar, column, and trunk.
This third MPM release is co-written by Phil and Jackson Mouldycliff, with studio trea…
Widdershins
A new CD of a live performance by these two talented improvisers. The interplay between them is, to use a cliche, telepathic. Whilst it's often difficult to figure out who is doing what, the gelling of the sounds is perfect, going from meditative to intense, smooth to harsh (but not abrasive). Improvisation at it's best - highly recommended! REVIEW by Frans de Waard, Vital Weekly : The biggest surprise here is not the music but the label. I would expect such fine talents in improvised music to f…

2026 stock A sound. A vision. A key. Flames Of Genesis open the portal to another world, another dimension and beyond with Interstellar Transmigration Part I: A Bridge To Further Realms.

Dies Irae
**Limited Edition of 60 numbered copies ** Paul Chain’s 1994 experimental album. "There are sections of familiar guitarplay included as well as the standard hammond organ, but still all metal/rock fans should be warned that this is mostly an electronica/industrial release. The mood of the album varies between lamentation and insane anxiety. In particular, ‘Prescence Of The Soul’s Forest’ is utterly disturbed and the vocals of Sandra Silver is what makes the most impact. There are no lyrics at al…
Connecters Vol. 1: Original Recordings, 1992–1999
Larrison’s Connecters Vol. 1: Original Recordings, 1992–1999 rescues a lone CZ‑5000 and one quietly obsessive mind from cassette oblivion, revealing 26 miniatures where lo‑fi space‑age pop, DIY synth craft and daydream cinema gently fold into each other.
Alla Sorrentina
Snake De, a potential reference to Snake II, the snake game preinstalled on our mobile phones in the late 1990s, seals the musical meeting of Maxime Canelli and Aymeric Chaslerie. The former made his mark with Carton, an unstable, occasionally sung synth-pop project, while the latter—whose background leans more toward electricity, notably as guitarist for Room 204 and Papaye—is endowed with an insatiable musical curiosity, which he has been satisfying since 2002 by co- running the Kythibong labe…
In A Quiet Of A Short Winter, Every Hidden Thing Finds A Voice Sharper Than Memory
*100 copies limited edition* Six touching tracks that, starting from quiet ambient atmospheres, initially soft, tenuous, and crepuscular, gradually seem to soar... ascending towards celestial spaces, revealing ever-wider and brighter landscapes below, ever-more distant horizons, ever-more infinite spaces...
Highly evocative progressions, guided by sober and delicate melodies and driving, pulsating bass lines, wonderfully deep (best enjoyed with a good stereo system to truly appreciate them), the…

The album draws inspiration from the 1980s, evoking atmospheres reminiscent of sci-fi soundtr…
9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning
Alice Kemp is a British artist working with noise, performance, fetish objects, installation and many other forms of media. Throughout her work, she articulates a broken and illogical syntax of the subconscious through trance states, dreams, and disturbances. She has performed extensively, occasionally as an associate to the Schimpfluch-Gruppe of Swiss extreme aktionists.
It is a rarified violence that the Kemp invokes on her 9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning. Something disfigured. Something fucked. S…
Gas
*Back in stock* For the first time ever, this book Wolfgang Voigt – Gas presents the visual aspect of the comprehensive gas project. it is not meant to be a monolithic retrospective of his visual work, but it features a broad spectrum of photographic images taken between 1995 and 1998 showing many different moods and perspectives of Wolfgang Voigt’s Cosmos. what they all have in common, however, is the mystical focus and seemingly, the blurring of boundaries between lightness and darkness, happi…
Life of the Mother
Analog Tara’s Life of the Mother is a sonic meditation on the depth, expansiveness, complexity, and power that this phrase holds. This album is made from layers of generative processes and interactions with them. Analog Tara uses a Zillion sequencer and Xone mixer as system guides, and sounds of the ARP 2500, Jealous Heart, Access Virus, Oberheim OB-6, Jomox XBase, Moog DFAM, and more to create a compelling electronic narrative.
The Garden Suite
Acclaimed musicians Nitai Hershkovits and Daniel Dor will release their highly anticipated album, “The Garden Suite”. Following their previous collaboration on Daniel Dor’s debut album, “Four Petals”, this new project sees the duo exploring uncharted musical territory with an innovative, Moog-based sound.
Inspired by the groundbreaking work of synth pioneer Malcolm Cecil, “The Garden Suite” marries electronic textures with the richness of orchestral sound. Drawing from a vast range of influences…
