New Arrivals
Baboon and Chest
From the frayed edges of sounds that once hummed and the lingering ghost of forgotten amplifier feedback & the unanswered answering machine message echo, Glands of External Secretion return with their most different album until the next one. "Baboon and Chest" is a four-pronged stumble through the usual-yet-unusual and weird-yet-no-weird delightful auditory wreckage. This "collection" stitches together echoes across time, from 1987 to 2025 and from San Francisco and Long Beach then to Edinburgh …
Corpos Putrefactos
Noise extravaganza, by ominous Corpos Putrefactos, issued by Kieh! Kieh!’s sister label, CSDCNM!
Just get it, before it rots away!
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…
Pérolas A Porcos
Rei Ghob, a Portuguese serial killer and rapist, was convicted for the horrific murders of three teenagers between 2001 and 2002. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison for his crimes.This tape includes a collection of his speeches, karaoke performances, and other content.
Compressed Knowledge
Radio Species’ “Compressed Knowledge” offers elusive, collage-based soundscapes—stuttering loops, fragmented speech, and ambient noise—evoking speculative reconstruction and experimental archaeology.
Unnameable Glory
Plume Girl’s ‘Unnameable Glory’ merges Hindustani, ambient, and pop, dissolving boundaries between language, sound, and feeling. Somanath explores the luminous freedom found beyond definition and the joy of shared, wordless experience.
KBh 2023 til 2025
In the summer of 2024 I was browsing through some unmarked tapes in my studio, Where I found a cassette with a mysterious recording which I couldn’t figure out who had made. In the following month I played it for a dozen different people to see if they had any knowledge about this magical treasure but no one knew anything about it. However after a lot of searching I figured out that the tape included recordings of my great friend Johannes’s new rock group Bending Backwards, we shared studio spac…
Femøren
A Friday evening last year I were hanging out as usual in the Afvikling headquarter probably reading about some stupid 80s action film. However that evening took an unexpected turn when this release suddenly landed in my inbox. Naja is a great friend of mine and she has already done a lot of amazing music but this tape made together with longtime collaborator Jonas Sommer is especially impressive I think. 25 minutes of very sweet and heartwarming Lofi pop songs from the top shelf of great songwr…
My room is an oyster
First cassette from my friend Jeff, hopefully many more to come.Side a is quite tense, side b is really sweetlovely tapeMy Room Is An Oyster
Side A
A series of dissociative solo guitar compositions inspired by overstimulation and political desperation.
Side B
A lil less of lonely conceptuality - the guitar as a blank canvas to be discovered with the people in the room.Feat. Casper Hejlesen and Malina Midera
I’m going to have to ask you to
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* One long composition for each side. Reminding me of an ultra-stretched version of the beautiful interplays on talktalk’s spirit of eden. Brittle percussive repetitions and muted trumpets slowly maneuvering into lovely tensions.
Compiled loops & experiments
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* Tape loops, wind-up gramophone manipulations, and other audio fascinations. All of these sounds share the fact that they didn’t fit into any other release. Collected throughout 2024 and 2025, they were set aside on my harddrive. This is a documentation of scrap material, assembled in rough form.
s/t
Aurora Central presents a cassette by Concepción Huerta & Jiyoung Wi, merging visionary soundscapes and avant-garde experimental sounds.
Interview / Colony For Silence (Tape)
A crucial document from the experimental poetry underground emerges with this rare archival release. Side A features G.J. de Rook, the legendary Dutch concrete poet, in a revealing interview about sound poetry, conducted in Dutch but enriched with fascinating historic samples. Side B presents a rare sound piece by Takahashi Shohachiro, the enigmatic Japanese performance artist who bridged Beat poetry and experimental sound art.
G.J. de Rook (born 1942) stands as the undisputed pioneer of Dutch v…
Robotica
Tip! Mac is an Italian cosmic courier who has been accompanying our souls on deep interstellar journeys for many years.

The compositions of the album ROBOTICA date back to 1991. Mac retrieved them from space-time oblivion and re-recorded them in 2015.
Today HDK is proud to propose ROBOTICA album in cassette: a scrummy mix of ko…
Doman O.S.T.

Mythology
Few albums like this one have made us jump out of our seats and giggle: "OH YES!". Graham Simpson, the author of the beautiful "Electrical Storm at the Micro-Station" published by HDK in 2024, returns with an epic, powerful, and terribly evocative concept. "Mythology" - as its author states - manifests his devotion to the history of soundtracks for fantasy cinema: from the colossal films of the 50s with the music of Miklos Rozsa, to the Italian Sword & Sandal films of the 60s, from the soundtrac…
Mysterious Guy Hardcore Junglist
*65 copies limited edition* New York's Chronowerx serves up a slab of jungle as refracted through Americanoise and Jerkbooth arguments on 'Mysterious Guy Hardcore Junglist,' No Holiday's first cassette release. Breaks are chopped into chthonic new forms beyond easy classifiers like "power noise." Jungle's form is exploded and reassembled over and over again on each of these four tracks, familiar and unrecognizable at once.
