Synth Pop Art
On Synth Pop Art, The Toy Shop turn Paul Klein’s one‑man Leeds project into a sharp, neon‑lit partnership with Philip Walsh, distilling early‑80s UK minimal synth, big‑chorus ambition and nearly‑was pop history into a tight set of lost singles.
Recordings 1982-1987
On Recordings 1982–1987, YU - Dwaine Woodliff, his brother David and Gaylon - turn Austin’s DIY tape underground into a lo‑fi philosophy lab, smuggling post‑punk, bedroom electronics and dark humour into concept‑cassettes about how not to come apart.
Recordings 1988
On Recordings 1988, YU - brothers Dwaine and David Woodliff with Gaylon - push their Austin DIY ethic to a strange, addictive peak, fusing minimal synth, post‑punk anxiety and home‑taped intimacy into songs that feel like intercepted private signals.
Lost Themes
The first solo album from the legendary director and composer of Halloween, Assault on Precinct 13, The Snake and many more! With the 15 films he has directed and composed the soundtracks for, John Carpenter has single-handedly defined the sound of the horror genre. The film music alone manages to instantly conjure up, in the musical memory of the devoted fan, the menacing figure lying in wait for the babysitter, the ghost-filled mist, the kung fu fighters with their lightning-fast fists, or the…
El Pulso Del Acero: Shinkansen
El Pulso del Acero: Shinkansen is Esplendor Geométrico's electrifying new album, blending trance-inducing industrial rhythms with bold voice and noise collages. Featuring 16 tracks, it revisits the raw power of their 80s classics while exploring futuristic industrial sounds, with recordings from Tokyo (2025) and a rare previously limited tracks now on vinyl for the first time. After over 40 years of continuous innovation, the influential Spanish duo continues to shape industrial, techno, and exp…
Iterae
Iterae is issued as a multi-disc edition designed for both shelf and wall—referencing the scale of the vinyl LP while quietly subverting its familiar expectations. The format distributes the album's material across four 80mm compact discs. Each disc can be played independently or sequenced freely, extending the music's own recursive methodology into its physical presentation. A full-sized compact disc is included on the rear for continuous playback. The design incorporates an integrated rear wal…
Divora Eco
Nothing that Fera commits to tape can really be considered a stopgap affair, nothing is temporary, everything is bustling, committing is breathing. “Divora Eco” is Fera’s latest pursuit into the inbetween hours after night and before dawn, the simple sounds left ringing in the ear after days of feasts and noise, a quiet roar against division and an immersive view into intimacy and resistance through sound. Tossing away as much embellishment as possible, melodies unfurl into drones, drones rot in…
Egg Shells II
*2026 stock* Egg Shells is a compilation series by the label Biardo Records. These compilations bring together various musicians and producers, blending different sounds and textures into a unified flow. The series isn’t tied to a specific genre — it primarily conveys a certain state and mood.
The second compilation turned out to be gothic, summery-contemplative, and warmly analog in both sound and spirit. Vocal and acoustic instrument samples, fourth world music, audio collage, loop deconstruct…
Strigiformes
*2026 stock* Concrete Colored Paint is the moniker of Peter Kris of German Army. On Strigiformes, he turns noise into a vessel for reflection—romantic yet raw, tracing the hidden processes of nature. These pieces are not built on beauty in a conventional sense, but on textured contact: the exploration of a sonic field through noise, where meditation arises from immersion and harmony behind it.
Released on Biardo Records, Strigiformes embodies our vision of music as a space that is immersive, spi…
Chandler and Dickow Play Fisher
On Chandler and Dickow Play Fischer, David Chandler and Paul Dickow treat Marcus Fischer’s graphic scores as a lab problem rather than a script, using tracing paper, chalk, piezo styli, EEG data and a 1970s modular synth to probe what it means to “play” an image without simply projecting themselves onto it.
Mount Mansfield
On Mount Mansfield, Sam Boston and Shawn O’Sullivan turn a Vermont peak into both instrument and score, binding bent lapsteel and analog feedback into a slow‑growing, topographic drone where static contour becomes living, verdant resonance.

In & Out The Confort Zone
*200 copies limited edition* "Listening from the 80’s to Ambient explorations in the form of IDM, Minimal Techno and other more experimental Glitch, Clicks & Cuts styles and its creative, playful use of rhythmical structures and sounds, inspired me to take a step out of my musical comfort zone into more beat driven area’s and so, I bought myself a MPC Key 37 and overwhelmingly started hitting the pads, pressing the keys, twisting the knobs, in attempt to let my musical history repeat itself with…
Homestudio Rituals
*200 copies limited edition* Focussing more on the atmospheric-ambient-drone side of the moon, Spielerei presents seven moving soundscapes, all composed, performed, recorded and finally mixed in the cozy environment of the artist living room studio, where sacred rituals of black coffee, love & peace and musical creativity are cherished.
Things Fall Apart
*200 copies limited edition* "Contrary to the implication of the title, Nathan Amundson’s new album "Thing Fall Apart" holds quite tightly at its center. In fact, for a decade-spanning compilation of unrelated 'singles', the collection somehow comes together rather poetically and seamlessly - albeit in some-sort of slow-mo, existential collapse much more in line with the title. By 'singles', please don’t get it twisted with the modern, music parlance - more so indicating pieces made with no orig…

Metaphon is pleased to present this première edition, which brings together a near-complete collection of the acousmatic works of Liliane Donskoy, recorded in the 1970s and 1980s.

She began her musical training at an early age, undertaking private piano studies with Yv…
Web Of Midnight
*100 copies limited edition* Corum’s Web of Midnight traces an astral cartography and psychic linkage between the psychosexual laboratories of Wilhelm Reich’s Orgonon in Rangely, Maine all the way to the Mount Teide Volcano on the Canary Islands. Different facets of the album were recorded in these charged locations causing the music to erupt with an orgasmic and volcanic force, a subconscious blast and discharge of etheric earth energy channeled through shimmering electronica. Babbling voices t…
Trust The Guide And Glide
*100 copies limited edition* "It’s Now! Eternally! Easy, Tender, Loving Sound. The Guide is You. The Glide is Life. Be Yourself, Live Fully – That’s what the Vibrations are Encouraging, Echoing, Waving, Glowing, Singing, Rippling, Radiating.
Matthewdavid’s Mindflight is Heart Music. It’s a record of beauty that has evolved from explorations into his deepest emotions, visions and imagination. The Flights were most directly inspired by his profound connection with Michael Stearns’ Planetary Unfold…
Mumia
On Mumia, Bobby Would turns grief into a slow, chromatic drift: two side‑long drones that move like clouds of deep brown and iron red, a hushed meditation on loss, numbness and the strange beauty that survives inside sadness.
