Music for a While
Michaela Melián’s Music for a While is an immersive, genre-blurring debut that fuses ambient techno currents with classical elements and subtle pop inflections. Drawing on a palette of cellos, guitars, and synthetic textures, Melián crafts extended atmospheric meditations whose compositional wit never dilutes their approachable warmth, producing a record both refined and strangely inviting, nestled between art installation and intricate electronic composition.
Dispatch All Gods
R. Seiliog returns with Dispatch All Gods, his fifth full-length release and a compelling evolution of his distinct approach to experimental electronics. Weaving field recordings, granular synthesis, and fractal sound design, the album forges immersive sonic landscapes, extending the post-genre explorations of his previous works while grounding them in the tactile textures of the Welsh countryside.
Bear Creek
Bear Creek by Camp of Wolves is a spectral journey into the folds of memory—an electronic album steeped in nostalgia and tinged with a spectral melancholy. Drawing on organic sounds and homespun textures, the record crafts a deeply personal, woodsy soundscape that mirrors the confusion and warmth of childhood revisited in adulthood, embodying both bittersweet reverie and nocturnal introspection.

Kielholen
Herpes Ö DeLuxe’s Kielholen dives headfirst into the murky waters of industrial decadence. With Hinterzimmer as its unsettling core, the record dissects German cold wave through rusted machinery and post-human irony, a claustrophobic yet hypnotic experience simmering between performance art and corrosion.
Cosine
2025 stock Shimmering dream pop readymades are the heart of Cosine, the debut release by Ancient Pools (originally a cassette, and now an LP). Ancient Pools are a duo (Anna Jeter and Kevin Christopher), recently relocated from Olympia to Portland, where Kevin was offered a good set-up at a new studio. Anna is from Pensacola, FL, where she was in a folk-tinged pop band called 100 Watt Horse. Kevin remains the bassist for a more rockist Northwest quartet called Oh, Rose. But Ancient Pools, with it…
In Dream (LP)
In Dream finds Courtney Bailey navigating the blurred edge between introspection and liberation. Layering spectral synths over tactile percussion, her voice threads through emotional chiaroscuro - a sonic diary where desire, loss, and rebirth meet in hypnotic balance.
Grayson II: Sands of Praconia
Sci-fi inspired, Prophet 5 synth led electronic compositions by Belgian film score composer Jan Borré. The second of Jan's synthesiser based instrumental albums inspired by the character of the mother of Spock in the long running Star Trek series, the altogether human Amanda Grayson.
This sequel finds her on a rescue mission to the fiery desert planet of Praconia...
Praconia, a remote planet caught in a bitter dispute. The Ozmi seek to exploit its resources, while the nomadic Prakans claim it as…
Breathe
This album is the full soundtrack to Liza Hughes' documentary film 'Swimming Through Darkness' retitled 'Breathe' for this release. Like all of Steve Nolan's scores, the melodies here are hauntingly beautiful and suffused with emotion, waves of sound ebbing and flowing like the ocean itself.
The cinematic score builds with pulsing synth pads and droplet-like piano motifs, framing the thematic events of the film, which include moonlit swimming.
As surf pounds the north coast of Ireland in the dar…
Home Demo Tracks
"Home Demo Tracks" by Muslimgauze is a collection of eight tracks with a total duration of about 47 minutes, featuring a distinctive blend of ambient electronics and polyrhythmic drumming. The album captures the raw and experimental essence of Muslimgauze's sound, characterized by visceral percussion, diverse voices, and sound effects. It reflects the artist's unique position in underground, experimental, and industrial music circles, continuing the innovative and atmospheric style that defines …
Turn On Arabic American Radio
The relationship between Bryn Jones's music as Muslimgauze and the track/album titles he would provide (sometimes right on the tapes he would send in for release, but often determined later, sometimes even giving two different pieces months apart the same title, accidentally or not) has always been a little mysterious. Jones himself can no longer be asked, and as you continue to investigate the swathes of material he provided, you hit sources like the DAT or DATs that make up the contents of the…

Hamas Arc
Originally released in 1993. The reissue contains remixed material from »Shekel Of Israeli Occupation«, which did never appear. Also on there are two remixes from tracks on »Vote Hezbollah«. From the original press release: »For over ten years this solitary voice from Manchester has created a unique sound drawn from a melange of Arabic and European instrumental music. From the very beginning the music has been based on drums and other percussion instruments. Recent advances have been attained th…
Lazhareem Ul Leper
Lazhareem Ul Leper by Muslimgauze certainly qualifies for its range of percussion instruments, atypical electronics, skillful de-construction of ethno-traditional music. In turn, said music is re-assembled with urban stylings with a technical deftness akin to the way a Shao-Lin monk wields weapons. Muslimgauze enthusiasts may recognize sounds from Izlamaphobia on the odd track as they were made roughly the same time, only Lazhareem is arranged differently and with more unique elements to form a …
Sycophant Of Purdah
Part of Staalplaat’s ongoing Muslimgauze archive series, Sycophant of Purdah was submitted in 1994 then “replaced” by another master Bryn Jones felt more fit for release. Sycophant then languished in the vaults until present, nearly a decade after Jones’ passing. It is no secret that Jones was a prolific artist and that numerous labels combined could not keep up with his output and will take several more years more for them to do so.
Sycophant opens with a radio broadcast on the on-going Palesti…
Kashmiri Queens
"Kashmiri Queens" presents a more accessible side of Muslimgauze, featuring a faster tempo and fewer sonic overtones than his previous endeavors. The music's core is rooted in drone and raga samples complemented by a rich array of ethnic percussions. All the standard Muslimgauze elements present here, but this release sees a more steady approach to his sound. Far less of the abrupt cutting in and out he had favoured for a good while, and more of a concentrated approach to the music. He lets the …
Souk Bou Saada
Another Muslimgauze discovery in Staalplaat's reissue series, with eight rare tracks from the mind of Bryn Jones. Hefty slabs of beefy beats are seasoned with spicy South Asian melodies while mouth numbingly hot bass lines are smothered in distortion chutney; Souk Bou Saada was broiled in Machester's finest tandoor and is now served by Staalplaat. If you love East Indian flavors with a neo-bhangra beat, this disc will not disappoint, equally at home on the dancefloors of Bradistan, UK or Mumbai,…
Iranair Inflight Magazine
This is a mostly beat-driven album with little background noise, ambient space, or reverb. There is also no big emphasis on Middle Eastern sounds, which (and you should be figuring this out by now) is a frequently occurring theme in Bryn Jones' politically-driven music. Occasionally, there is some melodic material, or a touch of the Middle East sprinkled in, but it's played down in favor of beats that could best be described as very raw and closer to early Autechre minimalism than something from…
Il Giro Del Mondo In 80 Pezzi
2010 release ** Limited edition of 100 copies. Packaged in an oversize cardboard sleeve. ‘Il Giro Del Mondo In 80 Pezzi’, that is ‘around the world in 80 tracks’. That’s right, 80 tracks here, in seventy-seven minutes. All around a minute or less. A bit of worn out idea if you’d ask me, but to present this like a audio version of Jules Verne, is perhaps nice. Gasparin gets help from one Jacopo Andreini, with whom he has been active in the world of improvised since the early 90s. Together they a …
Heavy Fierce Brightness: Spells Of The Sun
2010 release ** Cardboard sleeve. "Heavy Fierce Brightness is the name of a project by the experimental music artist GOG (Michael Bjella), known for its dark ambient, blackened psychedelic doomdrift, and drone sounds.
