*300 copies limited edition* After their last album six years ago, "Primal Forms," the new album by Phantom Horse, finally arrives. The German duo of Ulf Schütte and Niklas Dommaschk have long established a reputation for expertly crafted, hypnotically slow-burning electronic music, and we do not hesitate to say that "Primal Forms" stands among the epitomes of their discography. The sequencing of "Primal Forms" cannot be underestimated. It is an album in the classic sense. It demands to be liste…

Laputa, a title taken from the fantastical floating island of Gulliver's Travels is aptly named as 'The album that never landed' for, apart from a limited touchdown in Japan, Laputa was never released. This mystical world is a summation of Yokota's journey so far, a complex and at times challenging work but immeasurably rewarding. Beguiling and bewitching in equal measure. Over fifteen undulating sonic fugue states, he guides listeners round a liminal world, made up of familiar materials but for…

*110 copies limited edition* This is the fourth studio album of Kryptogen Rundfunk and the first one since the project moved from Russia to the Netherlands. Six tracks full of weird trademark radio noises and interceptions, heavy bass drones and piercing high frequencies, abstract electronic signals and quirky samples. These layered compositions are slowly building up, creating thick mesmerizing walls of sound, yet at the same time leaving room for a bit of flippancy. An uneasy ride for a restle…

*200 copies limited edition* "If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets" - Haruki Murakami   Pro-dubbed cassette in an O-card with a soft-touch finish and an insert / download card.

*70 copies limited edition* I was invited to a Drove session in October 2023. It was my first time engaging with a sound environment centered on prolonged, mellow listening outside of club chillouts. I set out to rework the live recordings and distill something distant and quiet that I felt was unfolding beneath the surface — a simpler texture, a droning blanket for the ears, a couple of mind pillows.

*250 copies limited edition* Microliths and Momentary Drifts is the first full-length collaboration from the trio of zakè (Zach Frizzell), Ossa (Kaiton Slusher), and ASC (James Clements), where rolling analog synth lines, chest-rattling bass, and otherworldly atmospherics evoke and build on the timeless qualities of peak-era 90s ambient. Each artist has released solo and collaborative works for Zakè Drone Recordings and Past Inside The Present over the last half-decade, but in this combination, …

For acclaimed composer Hannah Peel, the momentum just keeps building. A superb new album with virtuoso percussionist Beibei Wang, her continuing ‘night tracks’ show on BBC radio 3, and an ambitious ballet inspired by her Mary Casio alter ego, all point to 2026 being the year she makes another major leap forward.

Greg Horn started out in West Lafayette, Indiana as guitarist and vocalist of Dow Jones and the Industrials, a punk and new wave band with a wiry, keyboard-inflected sound that earned them a split LP with the Gizmos in 1980 before the group dissolved in 1981. Horn relocated to Phoenix, Arizona, where he found work at the PBS station KAET and met synthesist Galen Herod. Together they formed Tone Set, the minimal synth-pop duo that released Cal's Ranch and Calibrate and earned rare praise from Mar…

Funeral Danceparty began in 1979 in Newcastle. Their debut cassette, The Curiosity Shop (1980), was advertised in the national weekly music paper Sounds in the established DIY fashion of the era: interested parties were requested to send a blank cassette and a self-addressed envelope. Approximately 100 copies reached destinations worldwide. A national fanzine review compared the music to Cabaret Voltaire, Faust, and The Residents. Their second cassette, The Attractions of Fixed Interest, was als…

Everfriend was the project of New Jersey-based keyboardist Bill Rhodes (real surname Rupprecht), operating with drummer Mike Jacoby and bassist Paul Kozub, all previously connected through a band called the All Night Flyers. Rhodes self-released Everfriend's recordings between 1980 and 1983 on his own Jazzical Records label in very limited vinyl editions: Tropicsphere (1980), Sphere of Influence (1981), and Shoot to Kill (1983), the latter first released as a tape. The project sits in an unusual…

Bill Rhodes was a Florida-based synthesist and composer who spent the 1980s building an idiosyncratic body of work across a series of self-released cassettes and limited vinyl pressings, entirely outside the commercial music industry and largely unknown beyond the tape-trading network he plugged into through South Florida connections and fanzine advertisements. His music was described by Boomkat as spanning "lounge jazz flair to doomy John Carpenter feels," evoking a library's worth of themes an…

On Fluorochrome, Sara Ayers turns a tiny kitchen studio into a prism for synth‑pop, ambient and art‑song, layering her own voice and machines into intimate electronic miniatures that feel both handmade and quietly otherworldly.

On Sad Songs, Scott Alexander steps away from American Music Club into a one‑man synth lab, fusing Eno‑tinged ambience, noir synth‑pop and fuzzed‑out psychedelia into a solitary, homespun detour that never repeats itself.

On Recordings 1980–82, Sea of Wires condense Coventry bedroom kosmische into slow‑burn circuits: Chris Jones and Tony “T” Murphy channel Hawkwind and German electronics into looping, improvised voyages that feel handmade yet eerily vast.

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.

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.

Debut Sacred Bones release from acclaimed Venetian ambient visionary. From spectral drones to shimmering electronics and jazz-tinged harmonies, Movement flows like tides: a music of swells, currents and the body in motion.

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 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 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…

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…

Reissue of the belly dance holy-grail from the organ king of Cairo, combining traditional rhythms with spaced out modern sounds. Hany Mehanna, beloved musician and composer of the greatest artists from the Arab world such as Om Kalthoum and Abdel Halim Hafez, shows himself from a more experimental side on his solo albums. Originally released in 1973 on Cairo label Sout El Hob, Mehanna’s solo LP explored far more left-field terrain than on his other collaborations and film scores, ‘The Miracles o…

*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…

*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…

Remastered from the original tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl. **Munster Records presents a reissue of Batiscafo by Gregorio Paniagua. Immersed in an age of re-releases and the pursuit of rarities, hidden gems and marvels, record labels are constantly rediscovering musical jewels, which previously only collectors have had the chance to own. Batiscafo is one of these elusive treasures. First released in 1980 on the label Hispavo…

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.

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.

Kaazi (Izak Jerasimo) is a recording artist, producer, experimental composer, and a founding member of the group Asa Tone, alongside Melati ESP and Tristan Arp. Incidental Scenes is a collection of music made for film, documentaries and shorts, including "After The Flags" on seminal Javanese contemporary artist and activist Arahmaiani, "Beyond Dualism" on New York artist Futura 2000, and "Anatomy of An Artist" on Yogyakarta-based filmmaker Natasha Tontey.

*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…

*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.

*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…

3LP + 8 page booklet in offset printed slipcase sleeve. Regular edition of 250 copies. 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.

Edition of 400. Wired was an ephemeral improvisational music project formed by Michael Ranta, Karl-Heinz Böttner, and Mike Lewis. On 28 April 1970, the trio recorded an extended studio session of approximately 140 minutes, in collaboration with Conny Plank, who engineered and mixed the recording in real time, incorporating elements of live electronics. This session was subsequently edited to album length and released in 1974 as part of the Free Improvisation 3LP box set issued by Deutsche Grammo…

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.

On Forever Neon Lights, James Adrian Brown swaps Pulled Apart By Horses’ guitar-slinging volatility for luminous, emotionally charged instrumentals, threading analogue synths, tape machines and strings through a glowing meditation on childhood wonder, creative stubbornness and hard-won hope.

On Situations | Useless Mouths, The Mistys pivot from solitude to shared euphoria, channelling restless electronics and Beth Roberts’ shapeshifting vocals into a bright, subversive celebration of joy as fuel, shelter and quietly defiant energy.

On Stars of the Wayside, Twilight Sequence traps an evening in Sherborne’s The Beat and Track: Matthew J Saunders threading slow‑mutating loops, semi‑modular pulses and live sampling through the racks, turning a tiny shop into a softly glowing synth observatory.

On Sun Angle, Solar 76 folds 90s tech‑ and deep‑house DNA into a lucid, slow‑burn vision of the future we never got: warm, utopian machine music that imagines a socially and ecologically advanced 2020s and then quietly scores it.

On Patterns in Condensate, Phexioenesystems turns Peter Blasser’s Plumbutter and a humble JV‑1010 into a quietly radical study of “meaningless sound,” letting stressed circuits, presets and failed window seals sketch their own accidental poetry.
