New Arrivals
Draconic Synthesis
On Draconic Synthesis, Old Tower fuses past, present and speculative futures of its own sound into a single, coiled entity. Forest drones, star‑castles and serpentine motifs blur into seductively destructive dark music, lifting the first veil on the “horned serpent” whose scaly, symbol‑inked body is both dungeon and firmament.
The Old King of Witches
On The Old King of Witches, Old Tower pares dark ambient down to its bones and dresses it in ‘90s deep electronics. Following a “stranger” lured through moss‑choked forests and caverns by reclusive witches, the album becomes a fiction of time stasis and regression, where man slides toward beast and the mysterious old world quietly devours the new.
The World Is Empty, the Heart Is Full
On The World Is Empty, the Heart Is Full, Raspberry Bulbs strip away excess and come back sharper, crueler and strangely more tuneful. Eleven compact songs fuse metallic edge, noise‑rock abrasion and post‑punk unease, with venomous vocals lashing out at a self‑satisfied “underground” that mistake style exercises for substance.
With Open Arms
On With Open Arms, Cult of Youth finally emerges from a seven‑year chrysalis with a sprawling “pagan post‑punk” epic. Born from off‑grid barn sessions, weaponized analog gear and years of cut‑and‑spliced reconstruction, the 62‑minute double album plays like a feverish exorcism turned into a hard‑won, defiant rebirth.
Chaos Is a Law
On Chaos Is A Law, Bob Bellerue treats feedback and rupture as a kind of secular mysticism. Macrotonal drones, rasping noise and inharmonic vortices surge, implode and re-form, turning piano wires, metal and amplifiers into a single, volatile organism where chaos becomes both method and mantra.
Entstaubung
*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition* A sonic presentation of a site-specific installation in Marl, created at the invitation of the Skulpturenmuseum Marl. Nathalie Brum recorded a local production site for industrial filters that are exported worldwide. By filtering the sound itself and capturing the essence of the atmosphere, Brum creates an ambient, subversive soundscape.
One side contains the soundscape alone, while the other contains the soundscape accompanied by stories told by locals a…

The Sky Was Out of Tune
Anushka Chkheidze + Robert Lippok continue their collaboration with »The Sky Was Out of Tune«. Its eight movements form a long-form ambient piece in constant flux: soundscapes emerge from electronic synthesis and layered textures, while small melodies, rhythmic patterns, metallic noises, or distortions drift through like clouds across the sky. But a sky that is out of tune is still a sky. What shifts is the register in which it speaks.
»The Sky Was Out of Tune« emerges from a live performance fo…
Atol Scrap
"The story of each re-release begins with the original. In the late 90s, Uwe Zahn (Arovane), along with Robert Henke (Monolake) and Stefan Betke (Pole), began releasing music on Torsten Pröfrock’s (Dynamo) newly launched DIN label. This was a very inconspicuous undertaking, but fans of the flourishing IDM, glitch, and constantly evolving abstract techno genres quickly picked up on the quality of sound coming out of Germany. After a few successful EPs, Zahn began working on his debut full-length,…
If Take, Then Take: Tricks, Half-Tricks & Real Phenomena

Dub War Coxsone vs Quaker City
Scientist's “Dub War Coxsone vs Quaker City” is a landmark dub release that originally emerged in Canada in the early eighties, capturing the weight, depth, and electrifying pulse that made Scientist’s approach instantly recognizable. Rooted in Bunny Lee-produced riddims, the album showcases Scientist’s deep & heavy mixes, turning iconic performances into immersive soundscapes—where basslines thunder, echoes linger, and every cut feels like a new chapter in the dub war.
At the heart of the recor…
The Palm Leaves of Victory / Audio Letter to Mitch Meyers
The Sun City Girls were unlike any band before them or that has come in their wake. Their catalog, their ethos, their *being* - you name it, with the Girls that “it” was singular and became legend. This singularity started early and extended to their release schedule and the means behind the same. While the band would prove to be wildly prolific throughout their existence, during their nascent days they quickly realized that they could not be contained by any sort of traditional label schedule. …

Visions Of Sodal Ye
Originally self-produced in 150 copies (1977), Mar-Vista’s only album is one of France’s most strange and radical records. Psychedelic electronic music, experimental, and acid folk — a collector’s grail for fans of Klaus Schulze, Terry Riley, Neu, Heldon and Silver Apples.
Siena Sessions
One of the critical figures in Chicago's creative music scene, alto saxophonist Nick Mazzarella has been a mainstay for over 25 years as a leader, composer, and player. This gorgeous recording was made at Shape Shoppe Paradiso, the Italian studio of former Chicagoan Griffin Rodriguez. Mazzarella was introduced to bassist Silvia Bolognesi by cellist Tomeka Reid, and he began informally playing with Silvia and drummer Cristiano Calcangile in 2016. Seven years later, Bolognesi invited Mazzarella to…
Sottana & Calze
On this split cassette, Sottana & Calze’s The Gloria and The Rita collide in a sharply focused post‑industrial ritual. Trifurcated contact mics, woolen stockings and monophonic chants meet the Canadian project’s obsessive “canes” study, pressed onto dual‑color shells as a rare Canadian/Italo‑Norwegian collaboration built for XXI Congresso Post Industriale.
