Scomparire
Simon Balestrazzi's new solo effort calls for the ear to linger on things shrouded in fog, sounds meandering between vision and reality. Highlighted by the mysterious shots by Adriano Zanni you can now enter an awkward soundworld where nothing can be traced anymore. "Scomparire", to disappear, Vanishing. Pretending to vanish in a thick fog, never to be found again. The detachment from one’s identity. Leaving behind the constant paranoia of what is real and what is not. Leaving behind everything:…
Everything Collapse(D) - Piano Versions
This is an unreleased and “lost” new album by Deison and Mingle conceived in 2014 /15 right after the recording and the release of their debut collaboration-album "Everything Collapse[d]". After the passing of Andrea Gastaldello (“Mingle”) in 2021 and founding these forgotten tracks led us to think that this work should have been listened to understand the essence of the original album. Published by a co-production of three label who have released various works by the duo in the past (Loud!, Fin…
Slow Dances And Still Memories
Slow Dances and Still Memories is the convergence of two musicians from distinct generations, Andrea Bellucci & Giulio Aldinucci — a languid waltz of fragmented memories and fleeting emotions, tied to moments in life, whether they arise from a dancefloor or a remote rural setting, from the hum of the night or the stillness of silence. Electronics here functions much like time itself: they blurs, distorts, reshapes, and subtly deceives memory… A choreography of ancient voices that intertwine in t…
Shadow Cones
**Edition of 200** Vittore Baroni and Daniele Ciullini met in the early 1980s in the then flourishing circuit of fanzines and mail art, starting a series of collaborations in small self-produced artistic publications and in the sound field, as in the case of “The Cop Killers”, a tape part of the TRAX multimedia project. In 2018, at the time of the vinyl reissue of this audio cassette, the idea of giving a sequel to the dystopian-science fiction "industrial opera" was born, but without anything c…
There Will Be Fireworks
The London based singer and keyboard player Dominic Appleton, known since the early eighties for his musical activity in the post punk/dream pop band Breathless, and perhaps even more for his vocal contributions to the legendary This Mortal Coil project on 4AD, joins forces with the Milanese producer and sound artist Matteo Uggeri, active from 1993 behind several projects spanning from industrial to post-rock and ambient soundscapes, known for collaborating with artists such as Maurizio Bianchi,…
Summer Fun - Music for Hotels Vol. 2
The compilation "Return to Acapulco - Music for Hotels Vol. 1", curated by Vittore Baroni and released in the summer of 2024, collected 16 songs created by as many musicians as a soundtrack for the different areas of a typical seaside hotel structure. The second volume of this unique collection that seeks new solutions to combine tourism and culture starts from a different concept, with 20 covers of well-known and lesser-known songs dedicated to summer by 20 Italian musicians and bands (plus a c…
Music For Bus Stations
Tip! Much needed repress! Music For Bus Stations is an astonishing work that pours into the soul of those allowing themselves to be transported in a dimension where sound turns into background noise. Sound becomes part of us, of our movements, our thoughts, our looks and our silences. There is no reason for resistance. Let's be silent. The noise around us is quite good.
"Generative sonic backdrop for bus stations. Designed to enhance space and portray a mod of progressiveness, grandeur, and ethe…
Monastir
*250 copies limited edition*
- SynopsisA cosmic operator (Edward Ka-Spel), tasked with cleansing the Universe, stumbles upon the remains of a mysterious monastery scattered in Jupiter’s skies during his work shift. The monastery once housed a community of cloistered nuns devoted to cosmic solitude. Among the ruins, he discovers the diary of Suona Menfrem (Dorothy Moskowitz). Through her words, he uncovers the secrets of her soul—her love for a woman millions of light years away—and learns why t…
Ever Expanding
*200 copies limited edition* "Ever Expanding" unfolds like a fissure in the continuity of the real. Each sonic fragment carries the memory of an archaic gesture, while also heralding a form yet to come. Nothing asserts itself, yet everything emerges with the gentle force of an apparition—unstable configurations that breathe in the space between the familiar and the elusive. The pieces overlap without collision: each remains distinct, yet surfaces within a shared field. What arises is a multiplic…
I Know Your Voice, but It’s Hard to Find in the Crowd
*200 copies limited edition* "I Know Your Voice, but It’s Hard to Find in the Crowd" is a concept album centered on the use of the voice. What shape does the voice take when conveying an emotion? The compositions in this work are made up almost exclusively of voices—an extensive spectrum of voices that sing, speak, whisper, processed through Auto-Tune, or emerge from WhatsApp messages, VSTs, analog and digital keyboards from the ’80s and ’90s, field recordings, and samples from films, TV, and Yo…
Fade, Remain
*200 copies limited edition* In its apparent bare simplicity, “Fade, Remain” is Iluiteq's most uncompromising and intimate album to date. Delving into the universal human condition of experiencing a loss and coping with a new phase of life, Iluiteq have released a new collaborative album, co-written with renowned Italian producer and musician Eraldo Bernocchi. The album juxtaposes the condition of “fading”, meant as leaving or departing, with the notion of “remaining”, either physically or spiri…
Further Opinions about Death
*200 copies limited edition* This is the second collaborative album between Matteo Uggeri (based in Milan) and Andrea Bellucci (from La Spezia). Their first work, "The Soundtrack of Your Secrets", was developed amid the well-known challenges of the pandemic, between 2020 and 2022. The last song of that album was titled “Opinions about Death”. Afterward, Matteo faced an even more difficult period in his life, accompanying his mother through her final days after a long illness that had lasted sinc…
Cold Star: A Noise Inc.
*200 copies limited edition* "Cold Star: A Noise Inc." is a collaboration between Deison and Cranioclast. From 2019 to 2024 there were continuous virtual exchange processes to create long sound-themes. The sounds were recorded, collected and manipulated by Deison at 1st Floor Studio and by Soltan Karik with the virtual succour by Sankt Klario. Tracks are segmented as circular encyclicas and the notorious use of anagrams is adopted for each title. Michael from Kallabris, helped to start the colla…
Tertium Quid
*200 copies limited edition* Exactly two years after “They Cast No Shadows” comes “Tertium Quid”, third CD from the LHAM project headed by Bruno De Angelis (Mana ERG) and Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh) which once again leads the listener through complex and enthralling instrumental sound textures. The richness of the album’s arrangements and the sophistication of its harmonies are striking, alternating between calm stillness, quasi orchestral crescendos, fragments of darkness and restlessness follow…

Desert Smell
*200 copies limited edition* "Desert Smell", a precious collaborative album by Fabio Orsi and Massimo Amato, is fundamentally centred on suffused and dreamy ambient atmospheres, with inserts of ethereal female voice, suspended notes of reverberated piano, echoes in reverse, breaths of synthetic woodwinds, floating and enveloping pads, fragments of abstract sounds, sequencer phrases sometimes kept soberly in the background, and sometimes reminding of cosmic memories brought more energetically to …
Fans For Fans
*200 copies limited edition* A 'monolithic' experiment in extremely minimal non-music constructed in two long parts. If the first part is dominated by a background based on a single sound rich in harmonics that oscillates on its own wave-like vibrations, resting on a substrate of what can be at the same time a synthetic pink noise or the real 'capture' of a natural quasi-silence, in the second part a few sounds of a more overtly electric/electronic matrix, a tangle of faint high-pitched looped e…
Glow World
*2025 much needed repress!!! 200 copies limited edition* Glow World is Rod Modell's new project resulting from his collaboration with Taka Noda. The duo delivers what could be an example of perfect elegance and musical refinement, but the resulting sounds are once again dirtied, ruined and ravaged by a noise capable of deafening us, sounds that come from afar, that seem to fade away but suddenly illuminate the world around us, which lands on us and which no longer belongs to us, leaving us lost …
Northern Michigan Snowstorms
"Northern Michigan Snowstorms" is an auditory journey that captures the serene beauty and introspective magic of stormy winters nights in the countryside. Each track transports listeneres to cozy cottages nesteld in tall pines. Music that mirrors the serene solitude of a snowy evening, where time slows, allowing the listener to be enveloped in a cocoon of sonic wonder. Ambient layers mimic the gentle wishpering of the wind through snow covered branches. Eight tracks of blurry loops, soft pads, a…
Hydor LP
Up To 23 is an electronic music duo formed by Marco Buffetti and Francesco Fincato. “Hydor LP” is a sonic journey diving into the ever-changing nature of water. From vast seascapes to the depths of the underwater world, the album aims to capture the power and tranquility of this elemental force, shifting between dark tones, ethereal visions and cinematic moods. The last two tracks feature a collaboration with Enrico Coniglio, whose guitar parts lay a foundation for fluid and hypnotic soundscapes…
