Fabbriche Silenti
“Silent Factories” is a sonic journey through abandoned industrial spaces, blending analogue photography with improvised electronic sounds and field recordings. The project explores the quiet reclamation of nature, inviting deep sensory and perceptual immersion.
Circuits
A moment of first encounters, Circuits is the sound of four musicians (Savvas Metaxas, Evi Nakou, Giannis Arapis, Dimitris Tigkas)navigating an unfamiliar terrain in real-time, their individual languages dissolving into a shared improvisational space. Subtle drones, resonant feedback and textural gestures underpin the ensemble’s interplay. Circuits is the sum of raw, expressive utterances—melodic remnants shifting from pulse to friction, from bow, to frets, through fingertips. A single-take impr…
Music to Watch Seeds Grow By 005: Stella Z (Fig)
Following the contemplative explorations of previous works in the series and hot on the heels of the beautiful Cosmos from E Ruscha, Stella Z's "Figs" emerges as a delicate meditation on growth, patience, and the hidden life of fruit. Recorded in London yet deeply inspired by distant memories from China, the album is a musical documentary that explores the fig—a plant with a profound personal significance to Stella. "The fig tree was the big, generous presence in our old home, feeding my family …

Split
Portuguese Funeral returns after a demo last year with 6 tracks of insane, experimental oddities. Highly original amalgamation of sounds from the fringes, conveyed in absolute mania, these tracks traverse from Dark/Synthwave music, to deconstructed Noise Rock, to infantile Industrial music and a lot of things in between. A tongue-in-cheek collage of demential philosophical madness.
CAB returns also following up to 2024’s “Roadkill” demo out on Rasga. Another release of transgressive Power Elect…
Eureka
2025 repress; originally released in 1999. Twenty-six years after its initial release, Jim O'Rourke's Eureka remains one of experimental music's most beautifully contradictory statements - an album that somehow manages to be utterly devoid of anything resembling conventional pop music while simultaneously being magnificent in scale, pleasant to listen to, catchy, and even reminiscent of records you might have heard on The Casey Kasem Show. Now, Drag City presents a 2025 repress of this essential…

What's Going On?
*2025 stock* 1983. A distinct malaise afflicted the nation. The UK was about to re-elect Margaret Thatcher by a landslide, cruise missiles arrived at Greenham Common in Berkshire, six people were killed by the IRA outside Harrods, nuclear reactors suffered system failure in the USA, Russia, Argentina and Germany. The Face magazine showed an exhausted youth that everything was OK as long as you looked ‘right’. A curious revisionism had become prevalent. The Jam had become the Style Council and st…

Forefowk, Mind Me
Scottish singer Quinie releases her third album ‘Forefowk, Mind Me’, With Upset The Rhythm on May 24th 2025.
Hatonal
Nobody feels the sound fracturing as Masami Akita, nobody understands noise better than Merzbow. This Japanese artist is for more than forty years the maximum exponent of a style that has been catalogued and denominated with perhaps, the most descriptive word of modern music. Noise can have very diverse connotations, however, when we transfer this term to the pleasure and enjoyment that a piece of music generates in the listener, when we treat non-music as music, we understand that sound express…
Advaitic Songs
More than a decade after its initial release, Om's Advaitic Songs continues to stand as a towering achievement in heavy music's ongoing evolution - a record that demolished preconceptions about what drone-doom could become while establishing new possibilities for consciousness-expanding composition. Now, Drag City presents a 2025 repress of this essential double LP, offering contemporary listeners the opportunity to experience one of the most focused and progressive documents in Om's remarkable …

Their quartet’s collective minimalist interplay passes through dense harmonic fields, transcendentally ionized ambient moods and soundtracks.
