Scompaio
"Delmore FX (moniker of poet and artist Elia Buletti) is a purveyor and craftsman of avant-world and post-world sounds. His sophisticated but straightforward electroacoustic language made of experimental novelty and folkloric ancientness has the oblique capacity of making one listen, dance and think astray at once. "Scompaio" (I disappear) is the new full length work by Das Andere Selbst label’s bright spark. Built around the mundane but magic disappearance of shapes, things and beings alike in …

Branes
*150 copies limited edition* In 2010 Giovanni Di Domenico formed a band called “Mo(ve)ments Ensemble” and released a CD on Belgian independent label Spocus. The concept and repertoire of that band reflected Di Domenico’s love for subtle orchestration and chamber music sensibilities, the basic idea behind it being the dissertation of the organic elements that form the instruments involved (in that case the wood of the strings and clarinet) and the re-construction of them by means of musical ideas…
The Plum
*65 copies limited edition* Weeding presents a limited cassette of Angela Wai Nok Hui's /the plum/ released in collaboration with Danish label Don't Look Back. Dotted with moments of chaos and tenderness, all of which are subject to Angela's toy box aesthetic, /the plum/ is an ode to Angela's obsession with low-fidelity and generational loss techniques, as well as her and her partner's grandparents, one of whom is featured speaking on the piece in Italian. A queasy long-form piece that meanders …
Decomposition Study
Decomposition Study is a collaborative process. The instrument featured here is an arciorgano, a special microtonal organo di legno with two manually operated bellows and 36-key octaves across two manuals, constructed according to Nicola Vicentino’s designs from 1555. The notes of the music, written according to the rules of canonic contrapunto alla mente, are passed between two organists while four other musicians disrupt and amplify the organ’s airflow, acting similarly to cellular enzymes in …
καῦμα (kaûma)
"The word καῦμα (kaûma) gave us the "calm" losing its primary sens of "heat". Here an archaic experimental music, a more or less advanced electronic technology with questionable sustainability, false loops, oscillations and glidings, between immutable harmonic series and dubious Chinese components. If "kaûma" also gives "chômer" ("not to work") (from occitan "caumar", "to rest during the heat"), another warming would call to disturb the calm, the pattern, to come out of our torpor (κῶμα, kôma ("…
In Real Life
Black Truffle present In Real Life, the latest in a flurry of releases from Berlin-based guitarist and composer Julia Reidy. Having drawn acclaim for solo performances on 12-string acoustic guitar that bridge microtonality, 'American primitive' stylings and classic minimalism, Reidy’s recent releases have utilised an increasingly broad sonic palette, fleshing out guitar-based composition with electronics, field recordings, and – most strikingly – heavily auto-tuned vocals.On In Real Life, Reidy …
Audience
A group of people is looking back on a collective experience, unsure if they were part of this situation or merely outside spectators. While they talk them selves through the event, one starts to mutate as different objects in the environment starts to behave in strange ways. Then the space suddenly completely transforms, and they start to realise how everything in this reality has a changeable and rather diffuse nature. Performed by Karis Zidore, Miriam Kongstad, Jakob Littauer, Cæcilie Trier, …
T.O.
"Last time we heard the powerhouse duo of Chris Shields (Marcel du Swamp, Ro) and Alexander Holm (Sensorisk Verden label boss), they called an audience member during the show on a homemade telephone while shaking dice, giving each other unidentified signs and cues, and presenting their special flavor of musique concrete. Voice, tape, synth (?). Beautiful sound. New record is bonkers" - L. Dusk.
Variables of Uncertainty
"Have you ever sensed a landscape change in front you? The sand under your feet completely change colour or structure. Certain places we enter calls for a different mode of engagement. In front of me is a piece of paper. On the paper a hand have scrippled nervous lines and strokes. Some of these lines form what could be words, others look like broken tools or thoughts never materialized. When I pick up one of the broken tools, i notice how it turns into a word, letters of unknown origin grows ou…
Embedded Listening by Felaia
The first full length solo album by musician and visual artist Felia Gram-Hanssen. Taking on different roles as field recordist, singer, producer and drummer Gram-Hanssen weaves together different parts of her praxis, which results in a diverse sound environment somewhere between drone rock and music concrete. It has been more than six years in the making and now we are so happy to finally release this beautiful work.In the title Gram-Hanssen introduces her own doppeltgänger Felaia, the albums f…
LP2 (LP)
The sophomore release from vocalist Theo Bleckmann and electronic musician & producer Joseph Branciforte, LP2 is a follow-up, companion piece, and elegant evolution of the shared musical language first developed on the duo’s debut, 2019’s LP1. Branciforte & Bleckmann return with a meticulously crafted album of even greater scope and complexity, further dissolving the boundaries between improvisation & composition, live performance & studio production, human & machine-generated sound.
The duo has…
Altars
*2023 stock*
A cycle of primitive and ethereal.Building monoliths as Altars. A Hearth.The main centre of these pieces are weathered landscapes, crumbling rocks, erosion eating away at stones, chaos of overgrowth, the deep time of constant crumbling and occlusion. Passage of storms, rebuilding of momentum, weathered souls.A cyclical altar, an eroded homecoming.A lyrical desolation.
From the artist:
"The narrative of the entire record is loosely based on the concept of deep time, a temporal scale …
Un été sans fin
*100 copies limited edition* Perpetual pendulum swings, cyclical and reappearing, same-same but expediting, eternal summer, scorched earth.
Bruno Duplant - Natural & electronic devicesPrimož Bončina - Electric guitar, field recordings
Salvado
*300 copies limited release* Recorded during two days in the spring of 2022, Salvado sees Lettera 22 go all in musique concrete. One single long tape loop worming its way around a room through three reel recorders, only sparingly tampered with in the process. The result is far from uneventful or passive though, as all the ghosts in the old machinery seem to come alive. An album perfect for nighttime immersion. Loud playback recommended.
Hailstone Temple
*100 copies limited edition* Camilo Ángeles and Joanna Mattrey present a striking set of pieces culled from an improvised live set at Museo Ex Teresa Arte Actual, Mexico City, recorded and filmed February 2022, with a dual recording and video release presented here as “Hailstone Temple”. Both musicians have fascinated Notice Recordings for quite a while, and both exhibit deep relationships with their instruments: flute and viola, respectively. Ángeles originally caught our attention via the TVL …
Manuale di cultura industriale (Book)
*2023 stock. Italian language edition* This edition of "Manuale di CUlturea Industriale" entirely revised, updated, and increased by more than fifty percent from the previous edition edited by Paolo Bandera, remains the reference text of an uncompromising counterculture that has been able to resist the blandishments of the market for twenty years.
Music, performance, radical philosophies noisily sing the end of the industrial age. From here all "hard" musical forms have taken inspiration, from p…
Kodemusik 1
*Limited edition of 25 copies.* Second volume of the Kodemusik series of limited edition releases containing repurposed or "upcycled" morse code training records. Each release has two records that can be mixed together and eg. slightly pitched differently. This way complex syncopated rhytems can arise, as well as new verbal meanings contained in the code sequences. Jonas Olesen is a renowned Danish composer and sound artist. Born 1979. Formerly lecturer in electronic composition and history at t…
Get's
Tip! Geins't Naït was founded in Nancy, France, in 1986 by Thierry Merigout and Vincent Hachet, both students at the Architecture School of Nancy. A year later Laurent Petitgrand joined the band. Their sound is often described as an equivalent of bands like Einstürzende Neubauten, Coil or Test Dept., but Geins't Naït is not pure classic Industrial. While Geins't Naït offers rough pieces of music as an extension of its punk attitude, Petitgand refines them to create some musicality within the pos…
