Kee Thara
*2023 stock. 100 copies limited edition* Since his first release in 2006, Aluviana made us explore electroacoustic landscapes but this album is a turning point. Aluviana explores electroacoutsic music a bit further but this time with a guitar and electronic processing. This new path blends electroacoustic and improvised music with a tiny touch of dark ambient, less the usual clichés inherent to the latter. Aluviana's music could be regarded as the continuation of dark ambient and post-industrial…

Thonis
*100 copies limited edition* This album is named after the ancient port city Thonis-Heracleion, which was only recently found in 1999 sunken beneath the Mediterranean Sea near Alexandria. The album was created through the process of attempting to retrieve something intangible that had been lost, and was inspired by the desire to reconnect with an alternative existence.

Rmx (By Aluviana)
*100 copies limited edition* "Spanning more than thirty years of Axiome’s recordings but focusing on lesser-known tracks, ‘Axiome – RMX’ by Aluviana utilizes oblique strategies to introduce the former’s music to an unfamiliar and, quite possibly, unsuspecting audience. Just as the New Romantics in the early ’80s were the ones to introduce and enhance such music that had influenced them in the previous decade, there is probably no better artist to emulate Axiome’s sound than their younger peer Al…
Ni Envers ni Endroit que Cette Roche Brûlante (Pour Georgia O’Keeffe) / Recurrence.Expansion
Félicia Atkinson’s Ni envers ni endroit que cette roche brûlante (Pour Georgia O’Keeffe) is approached as a meditation, not as meditative music, but as a reflection on the art of creation: how to inhabit one’s creation, how to convey it, domesticate it and live with it. Drawing inspiration from the artist Georgia O’ Keeffe, both in her work as a painter and in the houses in which she lived in New Mexico, and even in the landscapes that surround them, Félicia Atkinson has composed a piece that ev…
Hum of the Non-Engine
"People Skills could probably kill an hour or two watching you scrape the goo off your mukluks after escorting repeated tromps through the brack-befouled trench between music and non-music. You put on a show for him, he’ll put on a show for you. Everyone shows a little leg, we all go home winners. On his first new LP since the 2014 (Siltbreeze) and 2016 (Blackest Ever Black) touchstones, he blends “song-related” material with off-kilter signal garble to emit fidelity impaired pop-surrender by th…

Sun Masks Remixes
*2023 stock* The San Francisco label Dark Entries has released over 100 records in the past few years, most of them reissues of synth music from the '80s. Given the sheer volume of their output, it would be easy to miss the special attention they gave to one artist: Lena Platonos, a Greek avant-garde musician influential in her time but under-appreciated today (in other words, exactly the kind of figure that makes reissues worthwhile). Since 2015, Dark Entries reissued two of Platonos's albums, …
Totemo Aimasho (15th Anniversary Edition)
"Some time in the early 00s John Chantler, who was living in Japan at the time, sent me a couple of curious sound pieces he’d just recorded with musicians he’d met from Tokyo - Tenniscoats. This was my first introduction to Saya and Ueno, who have subsequently gone on to become longtime friends and a wellspring of sonic inspiration. In 2005, through their connections to Guy Blackman in Melbourne, Tenniscoats under took a tour of Australia and as part of that visit I arranged a concert for them i…
L'immagine di me, lontano

The recordings, rich with unknown atmospheres, unveil their deepest essen…

Black Mantra
*200 copies limited edition* "Kali, "The Black-One", is the Hindu goddess of death, time, supreme power, destruction and change. She is dark and heartless, the anti-mother with a bloodied face. She is "The One Who Dances", leading the world towards dissolution, end and rebirth. The origins of the Thug clan, stranglers known for their ritual murders, are linked to this karmic cycle. Since the last century, her mysterious charm has inspired literature and cinema, making her a popular figure also i…
Echoic Memory
200 copies. September 2022 I had a short tour in the UK with a couple of performances. One of them was at the beautiful venue Cube Cinema in Bristol during the Echoic Memory evening with Scanner. For this performance, I composed a new work, in which I further explore the perception of time. It follows much in the line of my previous works Embraced Imperfections and Less Is More. Not only because of the live performance, but also in atmosphere and mood. Yet, at the same time is even more dreamy, …
