New Arrivals
Institutionalised (Extended)
An hallucinating journey into sickness conceived by our ally from down under, T.G. Cranium. Half an hour of everflowing morbid visions and bestial devastations, manic highs and heavy lows. Beaten into submission by Erik Nystrand & mastered by Danny Costa. Ecstastic lobotomy noise.
Dysphoria Ultra
Heavily damaged noise by Steven Purtill, that you may know as a talented visual artist for Kiddiepunk, etc. Following a handful of brilliant self released tapes, still a fairly obscure name that truly deserves more recognition.
Special Becca
LA noise by Becca Lilia [ÆMNIO] and Jesse Sanes [Liebestod, Hoax, Kommand] recorded during the 10th day of quarantine.
At the Libra Hotel
Tucked in the heart of Koreatown lies The Libra Hotel—the titular architecture of Nick Malkin’s new album and site of his musical and psychogeographic exploration.
Siedem Tłustych Lat
*70 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* Rafał Marciniak is known for his heavy and loud bands such as Enten og Eller or Degens. Years ago he moved his interest towards more organic music (while still standing in the noise rock river) and created acoustic introspection with duo called Sajtban. His debut album "Siedem Tłustych Lat" is partially based on old Sajtban ideas, but here accompanied with Rafał's vocals. Some songs are covers of Polish pop and punk songs.
II

Aurora
*150 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* Tomáš Niesner started his guitar player path long while ago when he co-formed noise rock band Unna. Loud noise quartet stir the waters of little czech avant rock pond with music written directly to the precomposed beat of drummer Jakub Šimanský. Loud shows played all around Czech Republic took its toll and and by 2017 they turned down the DB to death low. The band was over. Jakub Šimanský was living in their former practice room in Přerov, playing acousti…
Antropocén
*50 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* "The photo used on the cover comes from the demolition of a never completed miner's hostel belonging to the coal mines in Frenštát, which has long been a threat to the Beskydy landscape and a symbol of the arrogance with which we treat our surroundings. But the end of coal is just a tiny fragment in the kaleidoscope of what we must do to make the anthropocene not just an age of destruction, but a time that will leave behind the anthropocentric worldview an…
Spiral Sadness
*100 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* "He used to be a Country Sinner. Until he wasn't. When Michal Drozen fulfilled his long lasting fantasy and brought his school project Dingo to another level, there was no need for another country-outsider alter ego. Instead he pushed forward his “loner boy persona”, collected his electric guitar and cheap drum machine and started to compose more personal songs than you may know from Dingo. Spiral Sadness is a sadcore lo-fi void, unique in many ways, bold…
Raise the Dead
Raise the Dead is a collaborative album from Connecticut drone duo Tongue Depressor and Maine-born, Philadelphia-based songwriter Jakob Battick.
Z Druhé Strany
*100 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* This new collaboration of Jakub Šimanský and Jiří Štěpán is sort of happy coincidence. They are both active musicians, both coming from different background and performing in within slightly different scenes. Jakub Šuminaský has been cultivating his guitar playing based on the echoes of american primitive guitar style. Bass player Jiří Štěpán is active in his group Národní Divadlo, which steer towards free improvised and dissonant music.
They both met at …
Outline of Nature
“Outline of Nature” is the debut album by Twilight Sequence (aka Matthew J Saunders) following the release of a 12” EP and 7” single on Castles in Space, and an EP on his own Bandcamp page. “Outline of Nature” started as an experiment in building a modular synthesizer system and ended up as a voltage controlled outpouring of love for the natural world. Sylvan-born and pastoral-powered, sap-blooded and lightning-charged, this album grew out of the damp florescent corners of the woods, each note a…
Sucesiones
Sucesiones is a compilation of studies written for 53 equal divisions of the octave (53 EDO). This tuning temperament was selected after analyzing the work of Mexican researcher and visionary Augusto Novaro, one of the microtonal and just intonation pioneer theorists. Novaro claims that 53 EDO is one of rich musical qualities, which has good approximations to the harmonic series. The use of simple textures such as sine waves was a conscious decision, this in order to maintain the focus on the re…
Hopes & Theory
Hopes and Theory is a collection of songs inspired by wild plants and intentional gardens. At its core this music is rooted in synthesis, autonomy, and purely tuned harmony. At its heart there is chaos, color, and evolution. Hopes and Theory was recorded on the island of North Haven, Maine and reflects the anarchy of serenity in a seemingly peaceful place. William Trevaskis is a composer and sound artist living and working in the Fox Islands of Maine who uses xenharmony to explore themes of cha…

As Long as the Sun, As Long as the Moon
"For the ear hears sounds from various combinations in accordance with the character of the melody and the instrument.” ─ Abraham Abulafia
Eight collective improvisations based on small musical ideas extracted from modern classical guitar works that make a beautiful suite of music; evocative, spiritual, hypnotic... The pieces found here are the consequence of a de-composing/re-composing process where each musician previously immerses into the music, transforming and combining the notes and rhyth…
sifting through heaven
Accepting the darkness can be a liberating experience. Realising, and struggling with just who we are and what world we live in requires it. By further complicating the fractured sense of beauty found on his droning 2022 release, ‘I dreamt we found a way’, Bristol-based composer, Rob Winstone creates a language that encapsulates the lifelong reach for our own personal heavens, along with the darkness and fear on which those foundations are built. Winstone’s instrumental palette continues to reac…
Next Door
Adroit jazz guitar, prog rock fantasia, and Japanese environmental music all rest comfortably behind Leo Takami's Next Door. The follow up to the acclaimed Felis Catus & Silence, Next Door finds Takami ruminating on passages — of time, seasons, consciousness. Through music, Leo contemplates daily events and finds beauty in ordinary moments. He also seems to be questioning the value of being stuck in the world, allowing his mind to wander towards something beyond it. His music is earnest, deeply …
Pan
“The album Led Zeppelin would have made, had they formed in Caracas” - Alex Figueira
First time reissue of one of the essential and most sought-after Venezuelan rock albums, originally released in 1970, along the lines of what other artists such as Santana or El Chicano were doing from the United States in those same years. Grupo Pan was led by Carlos “Nené” Quintero, former member of Los Dementes, Ray Pérez's group, and through this record he aims to retain the rhythmic strength and brass arran…
