A drastic left turn from NM label head Simon J Karis, following some notable 2024 output. The manic jubilance of both last year’s ‘Thrash’ (his collaborative effort with UK experimental/club royalty Actress) and his hugely evocative, slightly foolish solo full length ‘So Little Sorrow’ (accompanied by a book of 50 watercolour paintings by legendary ambient musician and visual artist Andrew Chalk) commanded new ears and scratched heads further across the globe than Karis had enjoyed prior. So wit…
Bassist and composer Joseph Franklin returns to NM for a wildstyle heat exchange, actioned live in collaboration with synthesist, composer and improviser Ben Carey. Modestly, this one does what it says on the box, however ‘a thousand tiny mutinies live’ revises motifs and prompts from Franklin’s solo bass and extended technique LP for NM in 2024 with spectacular license, captured in stunning high resolution audio.
Surrounded by an encircling audience, Franklin’s fragmented acoustic cycles issued…
The album offers massive long-form drone with a beautiful ambient touch—it is the first part of a trilogy. The artwork consists of an embroidery hoop enclosing a piece of felt that holds the cassette and credit inlay.
"I don’t keep photographs, old letters, keepsakes or memorabilia. I have sound-files, thousands of them, un-used, un-heard: folders of field recordings; sonic sketches; experiments that failed but weren’t deleted. The files are saved on hard drives or the cards of obsolete pieces of equipment replaced – bit by dusty bit – with something new, clean and shiny. A remnant is what’s left over when the greater part it once belonged to has been used up, removed, or destroyed. I think of my sound-files …

Dictée Magique condenses the art of live collage and vocal layering into a rhythmic and poetic dialogue. The album features four turntable improvisations by DJ **** and Sainte Rita, centering on spoken records - voices are mixed, interrupted, and recombined, creating a continuous interplay of language and sound.
A Book of Imaginary Beings by Awkward Corners reimagines electronic groove music through an abstract, global lens. Subtle melodic threads, sparse percussion, and experimental treatments foster an atmosphere imbued with melancholy, curiosity, and intimacy. The album’s 14 tracks evoke characters, settings, and creatures for a book yet unwritten, reflecting Menist’s nuanced approach to minimalism and storytelling.
Theo Alexander’s Stable Processes with Slow Ornaments, released by Flung Records in 2025, is a 36-minute single-movement work for viola, bass clarinet, and eight tape players. The composition fuses acoustic and electronic textures, unspooling as a patient meditation on resonance, memory, and the slow shifts of sound in space.

Ex Stasis 69, the new audio work by Joseph Nechvatal. Fuses erotic tension, cybernetic poetics, and immersive noise aesthetics into a hypnotic sound experience. Drawing from his decades-long inquiry into “viral” media and the sensual limits of perception, Nechvatal explores the ecstatic collapse between machine, body, and dream.
