Light Sensitive Materials
Sapphire Goss is an artist based in the UK. She uses obsolete and expired materials to create an “analogue uncanny” where light, time and materials come together in unexpected ways.
Pakachume
Emerging from Studio HC Orchestra, Pakachume is a collaboration between producer Adrien de Maublanc and multi-instrumentalist Yonatan Levi. The album blends minimalism, jazz, chamber music, Afro-carribean sounds, and ambient electronica, recorded intimately in Paris’ Studio HC with acoustic instruments and analog synths.
Vents d’aether
»vents d’aether« is the first collaborative album by sound artist Jérôme Bouve and composer-performer Delphine Dora for Hallow Ground. The six pieces are based on live improvisations on organ and harmonium. They were recorded in different churches on the Cotentin peninsula in France’s Normandy region and later enriched with additional field recordings by SA~RA. This adds an extra layer to compositions which were created both in and out of the moment and which quite literally resonate with the hi…
Fathom Tides
The collaborative project of Lawrence English and Werner Dafeldecker has consistently been concerned with processes of transformation. This is all the more true for »Fathom Tides,« the duo’s second album for Hallow Ground following up on »Tropic of Capricorn« from 2023. Using field recordings collected from diverse coastal environments made by English and later treated extensively by Dafeldecker, the two sound artists explore cyclical changes in nature across these seven pieces. Through its abst…
Manifestations In The Shadow Of An Uncertain Land
Manifestations in the Shadow of an Uncertain Land unfolds through aleatoric composition and intuitive process, shaped by deeply entangled political and aesthetic lineages. Rooted in lived experiences of bodies and minds navigating the localized and global weight of imperialism, the work also draws from the temporal logic of film and literature, where memory, dread, and anticipation coexist. Working with voice and modular electronics, Lowe treats sound as a sculptural and cinematic force, informe…

Phew
Why did so many of the world’s most forward-thinking musicians gravitate toward Conny Plank’s studio at that time? Released in 1981, Phew was recorded at the legendary Conny’s Studio—home to seminal works by Kraftwerk, Neu!, D.A.F., and Brian Eno—featuring Phew, formerly of Aunt Sally.
The album brings together Can members Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit, whose contributions, combined with Plank’s masterful engineering and Czukay’s innovative editing techniques, result in a strikingly original …
For The Space You Left
This solo prepared piano record grew out of periods of isolation and solitude, shaped by two very different emotional landscapes. The music began in 2017 during a residency at MacDowell, where I applied with the intention of experimenting with piano preparation and confronting a long standing fear: playing solo piano. I had always been uncomfortable exposing myself alone at the instrument, and creating a solo project felt like the most direct way to face that fear — and grow through it. At the t…

Will Shatter Rides Again (Tape)
*100 copies limited edition. Comes housed in a mini rave case with a handmade 16 page book and sticker* "One does not necessarily think of tradition when contemplating Birth (Defects)’ impossibly brutal live recording Will Shatter Rides Again, but the gnarly live tape has a long and proud history in punk, metal, noise, and underground circles in general. Big Black did one, Pell Mell did one, Ramleh did a few, Throbbing Gristle did a suitcase full. In the ‘80s and ‘90s, the decades that forged o…
Unfamiliar Music (Paris)
Sparkling or Silent finds crys cole and Oren Ambarchi pausing their restless, always‑on‑the-move discographies at a curious angle, as if turning the light slightly to see what has been glinting at the edges all along. Both artists have long carried an electroacoustic sensibility in their work - in cole’s hyper‑attentive treatment of small sounds and negative space, in Ambarchi’s use of guitar and electronics as malleable matter rather than fixed instruments - but here that sensibility becomes th…
The Alternative Counter Organization
Taco weaponise the very idea of “tako” - octopus, kite, bunion, drunk, bald head - into a mutating post‑punk organism, a rotating guerrilla cell whose songs behave like incidents rather than compositions.
Revolutionary Pekinese Opera
On Revolutionary Pekinese Opera, Ground Zero - under the ferociously precise direction of Otomo Yoshihide - detonates a cut‑and‑splice orchestra where free improv, noise, opera and plunderphonics collide with undimmed urgency.
Sunn O)))
Oxblood vinyls. Nearly three decades into an activity that has consistently redefined the outer territories of heavy music, Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson return with their tenth album - their first for Sub Pop, and the first to bear their own name.
Recorded in January 2025 at Bear Creek Studios in Woodinville, Washington, co-produced and mixed alongside Brad Wood, sunn O))) finds the duo stripping the project back to its irreducible core. For the first time, all instrumentation was performe…
Selected Organ Works
øjeRum is the moniker of Danish artist Paw Grabowski. Since 2007, his mostly tape-based works have unfolded like private diaries—intimate, textural, often centered around an vintage pump organ Paw found left abandoned in a dilapidated Danish home, and to which he would return, sometimes in the dead of winter, to play and record on. The works featured on this release are centered around this pivotal engagement and collect some of his earliest releases from around 2014 to 2017. These were then car…
