E The Artist presents Six, his debut album for Nyahh Records; an incendiary opus of blown-out electronics and daring sonic abstractions, inspired by the seven seals, that posits E as a daring force within the Irish underground. Garnering a fierce reputation both in Ireland and abroad despite minimal recorded output, the artist known as E instead boasts his infamy on the live circuit. The Nigerian-born, Dublin-based musician impressed over the years with a slew of memorable performances inspired …

Tropos of Entropy
On Tropos of Entropy, MNEM pushes Finnish experimental noise into a slow implosion: corroded tape loops, collapsing pressure systems and unstable, cosmic atmospheres sketch a world where structure erodes in real time yet focus never wavers.
Sielun Kuilu
On Sielun Kuilu, Abysse Des Âmes distil their dark noir avantgarde into an even thicker, slow‑moving venom: electro‑acoustic shards and brittle surfaces drift in a black ether where every gesture feels weighted and terminal.
