Songs and Bodies
'Songs and Bodies' is best described as hypnagogic post-rock, an impressionistic blur of dissociated riffs, jazzy rhythms and half-heard voices that casts a beguiling digital silhouette of '90s indie music. The album began as a personal experiment, a question that emerged as Piotr Kurek cast his mind back to the era that birthed bands like Gastr del Sol, Bark Psychosis, Labradford and The Sea and Cake. Curious how this music might sound in today’s cultural climate, he started recording sketches …

Peace And Happiness
The legendary double bass master is not appearing in our catalogue for the first time, but for the first time we have the honour of publishing music that has not appeared on Paul Rogers' albums many times before.

L'Empire Des Sons
An elusive cult gem resurfaces through Glossy Mistakes. Originally released in 1986, L'Empire Des Sons is an otherworldly blend of synth pop, folk experimentation, and cinematic percussive layers-dreamlike, poetic, and wildly ahead of its time. L'Empire Des Sons was a fleeting yet powerful transmission from the fringes of the French underground-an album that blurred genre lines and evaded easy classification. Fusing experimental folk, lo-fi synth pop, and avant-garde textures, the record exists …
Monochrome Electronic Music (Two pieces for Coupigny Synthesizer)
*100 copies limited edition* A « monochrome » approach to composition implies working within a restricted aural palette and, in this particular case, using fixed pitches. It focuses on developing interactions between these parallel elements in a time dominion. Establishing a dialogue devoid of structural repetitions and, most importantly, free from any hierarchy of notes. Such coexistence gives way to a particular environment of musical democracy where unevolving sounds lose their individual imp…

Helegy
2005 release ** "Here we are, grappling with the twin-needle turntable, the forced-groove vinyl, the ambient feedback, and everything else. The tracks reproduced and mistreated in the eleven excruciating episodes of the mini are this time by AMK. It's only right to recommend the album to fans of the most stripped-down and minimal dark ambient music."
