Recombo DNA
For decades Devo have been working non-stop at Recombo DNA Laboratories on a new kind of research to keep up with the mutating world around us. That extensive research is now ready for public consumption once again. Futurismo were the first to bring you this on vinyl and now they present unhindered access into Devo’s labs, documenting the scientific analysis and demonstrations as conducted by the band between the years 1977-2008. This tireless research has manifested itself in Recombo DNA...an u…
Beyondddddd The Notessssss
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* In the depths of Geneva’s Fonderie Kugler red-lit-boudoir, stand four grand pianos surrounded by divinities. The two elder Erard brothers are tuned down a quarter tone lower than their neighbours, a twin pair of gleaming and valiant Yamaha’s. Charlemagne and Seppe both sit facing each other, managing the 428Hz tuning from the tip of their left hand, while the right hand controls the conventional 440Hz machine. This four-piano fantasy was born a few years ago, w…
Lust (1)
Farming, often associated with toil and drudgery, can also be a surprisingly sensual and playful activity. The rhythm of the seasons, the tactile experience of working the land, and the shared sense of accomplishment can all contribute to a heightened sense of intimacy and pleasure. Consider the act of planting seeds. The gentle touch of fingers on delicate seedlings, the anticipation of growth, and the nurturing care required can create a deeply satisfying and sensual experience.
Harvesting, to…
In Zebulon
In the early-to-mid aughts, in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, Zebulon Café Concert was the epicenter of creative music of all stripes and flavors. Proprietors Guillaume Blestel and brothers Jef and Joce Soubiran passionately created and curated a space where musicians and the music could fully blossom unfettered by norms and conventions. Zebulon was also the preferred haunt of legendary artist, poet and filmmaker Jonas Mekas who had recently moved back into the neighborhood after lea…
Everything Depends On Us: Zebulon L.A. Live Recording Vol. 1
Imagined by Zebulon and made possible by the artists who answered our call for support during the extended period when our doors were shut due to Covid, this compilation captures just a handful of the many magic moments that have occurred on our stage over the years.
All of the tracks featured on this album were recorded live at Zebulon LA between 2018 and 2020 – with the exception of the title track by Jonas Mekas, which was recorded at Zebulon Brooklyn in 2009. Jonas is posthumously with us in…

Villa Hügel
For over half a century, Sven Åke Johansson and Rüdiger Carl have explored the boundaries of music together. Villa Hügel captures a rare moment: a concert with no audience, recorded in 2020 in the library of Villa Hügel during the 2 x Kippenberger exhibition. The few present could only experience it in-house via TV transmission. Carl on accordion, Johansson on percussion, cardboard, and crackle box—an interplay of structure and openness, sound and silence. This release follows Johansson’s exhib…
Matta
2007 release ** "In April 2007, Ramuntcho Matta went to Tokyo to play with Mama Milk, a Japanese duo, and came back with hours of live recording done by Romain de Gueltzl. From this meeting of three different instruments, accordion, double-bass and guitar, above which Ramuntcho sometimes sings, a unique music was born, mixing jazz, tango and the new music in a movement which is both Zen and sincerely contemporary. SometimeStudio decided to publish these recordings in order to share these moments…
Solemn
2007 release ** "I've rarely heard anything this slow avoid being repetitive this successfully and, in fact, it wouldn't be too difficult for other bands to take a leaf out of Solemn's book and try a similar approach. One of the ways in which this does well is down to the structuring of the album. The two opening songs are both colossal slabs of slow doom that include lots of subtle keyboards and soundscapes, as well as an outstanding vocal performance, more on which later. They pack in just abo…
My Right Of Frost
2012 release ** My Right of Frost draws sound signs from electronic circuits rewired and made unstable up to the feedback’s critical point. The sequences proposed are totally improvised from the point of view of the musical value of the sounds, and tonally unrepeatable. Across and beyond the concept of circuit bending, My Right of Frost operates constantly on the verge of oscillators and filter’s collapse, extemporizing electronic paths that diverge to form a macro-sign, i.e. the artwork.
Million Ways To Spend Your Time
2006 release ** "This compilation is dedicated to the 5th birthday of Ukrainian indie-label Quasi Pop. CD feautures absolutely new & exclusive tracks from the main label-mates (Andreas Brandal, Biblioteka Prospero, Peel Off The Bass, Jørgen Knudsen) and a lot of "special birthday stuff" from labels's old & new friends from different countries. Enjoy our surrealistic blend of weird pop, organic noise, neo-psychedelic, electro-acoustic, garage folk & processed field recordings!" (label info) Great…

Shell I
*120 copies limited edition* Shell I is the second edition on Edições CN by Brussels sound artist Florence Cats. It is a magical collection of 23 edits for voice, field recordings, theremin and piano. Cats’ recorded piano rehearsals and singing sketches reminds us of Cornelius Cardew works. They are at the heart of Edições CN, where a sketch or rehearsal holds as much, if not more, truth than a definitive composition.
A melody line from Debussy passes by. Waves crash in the distance. Sails and f…
