Polonius
Edition of 350 copies. Pressed on 180g vinyl, including insert and sticker by Luca Salvatori. Aleatory. Rhizomatic. This is the beat broken free of metrics and binary quantization. The beat, with its bindings shattered, charging loose onto the dancefloor and subsuming it in a storm of gnashing teeth and whirling steps and ecstatic free dance, ecstatic free play. The beat, set free to grow in infinite folds and spores and to be carried in endless fractal blooms across the four winds, from dimlite…
Slow Motion Summer
*120 copies limited edition.* A spell to slow down time, a drawing back of the veil between worlds, the way that a song also contains multitudes. Slow Motion Summer is a record fixated, both metaphorically and literally, on time. It draws on the way we experience time, weaving strands of recorded sound stretched and spun at a host of different speeds to both alter and extend our perception of the moment that's swirling around us. It's also a record obsessed with the secret world, with the infini…

In Schwarze Stücke Zerbrochen

Fans of the genre could hardly miss his (now freshly repressed Cardinal Fuzz label) 2022 album Die Hand Der Riesin. Bischoff's approac…
Metal
*65 copies limited edition.* There is not many other duo's on czech free improv / noise scene such as these two. Klamm & Pelikan. They are something like Durman / Posejpal for generation X. Working together since 2011, but probably much longer. This is Discogs knowledge speaking. They are navigating themselves through the wastelands of tones that nobody wants to hear. Ever. Manipulated guitar, tape loops combined with alt sax and clarinet and hallucinating voices. Sometimes the offering consists…

BO
*120 copies limited edition.* "I'm on a jet ski. The river I'm on is dirty. Not like it was clean before, but there was some rain up north and now the mud got in the stream. Bunch of birds are hanging out on the piece of driftwood. The splash of dirty water from jet ski disturbs them from their limbo. They fly away, they squeal with displeasure. This river is all mine. Rain starts pouring. Jet ski is on full speed now, spitting the brown mud water out. Sound of a collapsing engine brings the jet…

Antropocén
*50 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* "The photo used on the cover comes from the demolition of a never completed miner's hostel belonging to the coal mines in Frenštát, which has long been a threat to the Beskydy landscape and a symbol of the arrogance with which we treat our surroundings. But the end of coal is just a tiny fragment in the kaleidoscope of what we must do to make the anthropocene not just an age of destruction, but a time that will leave behind the anthropocentric worldview an…
Spiral Sadness
*100 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* "He used to be a Country Sinner. Until he wasn't. When Michal Drozen fulfilled his long lasting fantasy and brought his school project Dingo to another level, there was no need for another country-outsider alter ego. Instead he pushed forward his “loner boy persona”, collected his electric guitar and cheap drum machine and started to compose more personal songs than you may know from Dingo. Spiral Sadness is a sadcore lo-fi void, unique in many ways, bold…

They both met at …
The Pleasure of Loosing
*70 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* "I'm not sure if its the usual narrative when people speaks about Giovanni Donadini musical alter ego Ottaven, but at leats for me its important to mention his past which is tied to italian hardcore punk band called With Love. Its undeniable that the punk DIY approach has pretty clear feel in whatever art Giovanni does, no matter if its building minimal furniture walls, making electronic music or designing his fashion pieces as Caned Icoda. About twenty ye…
