Echoic Memory
200 copies. September 2022 I had a short tour in the UK with a couple of performances. One of them was at the beautiful venue Cube Cinema in Bristol during the Echoic Memory evening with Scanner. For this performance, I composed a new work, in which I further explore the perception of time. It follows much in the line of my previous works Embraced Imperfections and Less Is More. Not only because of the live performance, but also in atmosphere and mood. Yet, at the same time is even more dreamy, …
Isolario
Limited edition of 59 copies (!) An additional 100 copies are signed and numbered by Dario Calderone and only available through him at art events and concerts. Isolario is a cycle of 9 duets, which can be performed, or just imagined, by any instrument or voice. The inspiration of these compositions comes from a compilation of texts by medieval writers from the “Arabic” world, describing a special and wonder-full island. Beyond the fact that these islands really exist, what interests me is the de…
Kalpa
*200 copies limited edition* Since the start in 2008 Jon Wesseltoft and Lasse Marhaug, aka Tongues of Mount Meru, have released a set of intense and mind tripping longform pieces. Their music often almost seemingly static and gradually building it’s intensity over long streches of time. This is music that demands concentration, and hypnotically drill into the awareness of the listener. At times abrasive andintense, but also beautiful and calmly introspective. Last year they released the culminat…
Battleship Potemkin
*300 copies limited edition* Nearly a century has passed since the release of Sergei Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin (Russian: Бронено́сец «Потёмкин», Bronenosets Potyomkin). We must speak out, now. Time has come. When the meat is rotten and maggots run across your plate, what's left to do? Remnant memories of times almost forgotten, or of traditions from back home, linger in the body military depleted. Our daily bread served as a timely reminder of shared humanity: a first step in an uprising …
Seeking the intimacy of silence
*200 copies limited edition* One of the things the pandemic brought us was an eerie silence: imposed, artificial. Together with the silence, it brought a concomitant isolation. It left its mark on all of us, in different ways, but a distinct mark which still remains today. This new release which we bring you now, holds, at its core, this recent experience. That is why we wanted to address what we decided to call a kind of intimacy with silence. Above all, it is a question of highlighting the dif…
Quelques Instants D'éternité
*200 coipes limited edition. In process of stocking* After a trilogy under the seal of a pessimistic vision of our present time and of Humanity (Élégie du temps présent - Granny records, Sombres Mirroirs - Cronica and Insondables Humeurs - Granny records), Quelques instants d'éternité is the first part of a new trilogy, always imbued with a certain mysticism and a deep melancholy, but, this time, more luminous, carrying a hope still possible. Once again, the omnipresence of the organ nevertheles…
It Deel I
Edition of 300 * It Deel is a new project for the upcoming years by the Kleefstra Bros in collaboration with Popfabryk. The underlying motive for this new project is the disastrous damage to the nature. Together with guest musicians the brothers work on new material in the Thomaskerk in Katlijk (Friesland, NL) which stands in relation to this theme of environmental decline. Each project is presented live in front of an audience after a week, and results in a vinyl release on Moving Furniture Rec…
Loess
* Edition of 300. * Collaboration is key to the practices of both musicians. Both Rimbaud and De Waard exhibit long histories of collaborating with others from very different fields. They both understand that the ability to exchange and share ideas is crucial, and how these collaborations allow both parties to work as both negatives and positives of each other, recognising spaces within the work fields and ideas. It teaches the respect of space and the relevance of context and extension of one t…
The Sprawl
*2022 stock. 200 copies limited edition* Distorted Nude is the new project of Glenn Dick who previously played as Find Hope In Darkness and is part of the experimental ambient duo Klankdal. Where as Find Hope In Darkness his music was all computer based with some space for field-recordings, as Distorted Nude he has changed to using the guitar as instrument. For The Sprawl he improvised several sessions with guitar, effect pedals and laptop. These recordings were used as starting point to compos…
Shade Of Impulse
*2022 stock. 200 copies limited edition* “Shade Of Impulse” is the first album for Frank Crijns on Moving Furniture Records. For the music on this CD Crijns has coined the term “N-bient”: ambient that refers to nature (here Water) and acoustics (here passages by classical ensembles). On the album several characters of sound collide, combine and interact with each other. A “N-bient“ sound canvas of (mechanical) sound-fields, natural ambient, electronic textures and acoustic ensemble playing, all …

dp[a] + hsh is the debut album for composer Gagi Petrovic. The album consists of two projects that were unrelated until now: dp[a] + hsh.
Bombinate
*2022 stock. 200 copies limited edition* After releasing Indite at Moving Furniture Records (April of 2015), the first one with MFR but the band’s second album, Haarvöl began a series of conceptual, somehow interconnected projects, restricting the boundaries of the sonic ambience to a very concise one. This long process gave birth to three albums, each one having a very particular sonic approach but knitted in a personal Haarvöl sound idiosyncrasy, which gives the trilogy a thread that intertwi…
Indite
*2022 stock. 200 copies limited edition* Haarvöl, a collective project based in Portugal with three permanent members, has been active in the field of experimental music since the end of 2012. Haarvöl’s music is conceptually developed in the exploration of the properties of sounds in order to achieve cinematic and imaging environments. The sounds are not restricted to their medial origins: both digital and analogue sources are used and mixed in intricate compositions with special attention to d…
Locked So Tightly In Our Dreams
*2022 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Find Hope In Darkness is the moniker of 15 year old Glenn Dick from Ghent, Belgium. Locked So Tightly In Our Dreams is his first CD release after two download only releases. Where on his download releases he searches for a combination of broken beats and post-rock for Locked So Tightly In Our Dreams he explores his own boundaries in drone music and the darker sides of the ambient atmospheres. Close your eyes and drown in the deep dark sounds of Find Hope …
Cheophiori
*2022 stock. 100 copies limited edition* Accrual is the duo of Ruaridh Law (TVO) on electronics and Alasdair Satchel on guitar. Their music is not easy to describe, but finds its way somewhere between drone and processed sounds. It has a natural vibe while at the same time being abstract. The debut album by Accrual "Cheophiori" was first released as CD-R on French label Diesel Combustible. It was so difficult to get the CD-R and the artwork was full with mistakes that this really needed an updat…
De Tragedie Van Een Liedjesschrijver Zonder Woorden
*2022 stock. 300 copies limited edition* “De tragedie van een liedjesschrijver zonder woorden” (The tragedy of a song writer without words) is the first normal CD by Orphax. This album contains music that has been written between April 2005 and July 2007 and retouched again in 2008 and 2010. The period these songs were written was one with many transitions in the live of van Erve. It was the end of his student years, the begin of his working years, a period where he struggled with an at that tim…
Of What Once Was
*2022 stock. 300 copies limited edition* The fourth full length record by Machinist, Of What Once Was, comprises of two tracks with a combined running time of 55 minutes. The diptych consists of the tracks ‘mono tone in d’ and ‘of what once was’. ‘mono tone in d’ is inspired by the concept of the ‘Monotone Symphony’ (1949) by French artist Yves Klein. In this composition a chamber orchestra plays only one note for twenty minutes, followed by an equal measure of silence. Machinist takes up this c…
Play Cat's Cradle
*2022 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "I don't know exactly what the instrument is. It's probably a kind of zither; that's how my dad described it to me when he first told me about it. I was immediately fascinated by his description: a set of strings on the left side that was blocked into eleven chromatic 'chord banks', each adjustable between major, minor and suspended fourth via little levers at the front that literally tightened the string by a semitone; on the right, three octaves of note…
Music For Modified Melodica
*200 copies limited edition* Music for Modified Melodica by Japanese composer Kaori Suzuki was born out of two explorations: one of tuning (and subsequently degrading) the small reeds of a melodica, and the other to modify it playable with foot pumps, allowing for the sustained excitation of the reeds. Playing with the highly resistive foot bellows introduced massive ‘volumes’ of air to the reeds, overblowing them to vibrate loudly. This aspect led me to work with the sound potentials of combina…
Ursae Minoris
**300 copies limited edition** "Ursae Minoris, meaning ‘of Ursa Minor’, is the title of this work because in this album we encounter this constellation not as a singular instance but as an evolution of multiple perspectives to ruminate upon. As our view of the stars changes with time and place, the three movements of this piece each offer a different aural interpretation. While working on his string quartet Perpetuo Motum, Baroni happened upon the diaries of Ciriaco d’Ancona (1391-1455), an Ita…
