Back From The Deep Water (Sharkive: 1981-1987)
**Edition of 300, one-off pressing** Basking Sharks are one of the unsung heroes of the original minimal / synth–pop / wave era. Formed in 1980 in the North of England, members Adrian Todd, Ged McPhail and Martyn Eames used an array of home–made electronic instruments plus customized second hand synths to provide unique sounds. On stage they always played "live" without the use of backing tracks. Their stage act included a slide show, films and computer visuals synced into the stage performanc…
Threnody for Judas Iscariot
* Edition of 100. Housed in high quality folded card stock Silk Screened. * Spit-tested veterans of frontal-lobe extermination, Key of Shame’s Pat Murano (Decimus, NNCK) and Mark Morgan (Sightings) discharge focused algorithms of unease and decay in split-second intervals on their third LP, Threnody for Judas Iscariot. A sly codicil of dim textures and gestalt arpeggios, Judas Iscariot shudders itself open and stays gaping, bum notes skittering and splitting out of the electronic backwash like e…
The Imaginary Republic
The Imaginary Republic is an artistic research project focusing on questions of social practice. In particular, it considers the creative and restless imaginaries underpinning our political selves and argues for a deeper engagement with what Elena Loizidou terms “dream-action”: the figurative and poetic staging of world making activity.
The publication brings together participating artists Tatiana Fiodorova, Octavio Camargo / Brandon LaBelle, the Sala-Manca Group, and Joulia Strauss, whose prac…
Voice of Hearing
Voice of Hearing's key is that it is neither a book about voice nor hearing per se, but about how writing performs the dual-duel operation of assonance and dissonance, Vivian calls it the "unitary interruption" that regulates the gap "between you-my-me and you." There is a sense throughout the book that the me and you are both plural and abstracted, intersected and overlapped, hyphenated and hyperextended.[…] Doubt is constitutive of the project from the onset, from the I-intro, the not-only-I-i…

Psychic Drones
* Edition of 200 * Psychic Drones is a brand new project by Joel Gilardini and Kazuyuki Kishino (aka KK Null). Born out of the admiration for each other works, during spring 2020 we decided to join forces together and started working on this new project. The composition process was quite straight forward: Joel would record sound sketches, which then wold be torn apart and decomposed by Kazuyuki. It was a creativity flood, exchanging mails and sound files over the ether, from Switzerland to Japan…

Videosphere
Videosphere, the debut album by Kompakt’s latest signing, the London-based artist Lake Turner (aka Andrew Halford), swoons into focus with “The Sunbird”, a teasing drift of lilting, ambient tones, riding out a submerged piston-pulse rhythm. Across its brief 109 seconds, it manages to traverse evocative terrain – something mythopoetic, something both humble and grandiose, a glimpse of the other behind the sky’s curtain. “I wanted to conjure up something resembling an ancient ceremony or death pro…
Relax and Implode
* White-marbled Vinyl * Retro future past explorer. Ultraromance, hazy desire, a whiff of nostalgia. Excitement, confusion, and disenchantment. Internalization leads to alienation. And the cognition that everything can turn into a straight up joke after a while. So relax and implode… The second full-length album of Berlin musician and futurologist André Uhl invites the listener to a sonic adventure with high emotional impact. Eleven songs are carefully crafted like sculptures in a swampy landsca…

Smirne
Inspired by the philosophy of George Gurdjieff, whose mystic meditations surely linger in the magick of their work, Smirne was born as a open minded experimental project. Generated by the fusion of different realities, the line-up at the time of the debut is composed of Andrea Reali and Tiziano Doria, members of Lavorazioni Carni Rosse, together with Anna Vezzosi and Cesare Lopopolo, from the electro-acoustic duo Rosso Polare. A thin line between improvisation, electronic exploration and Aegean …

Balloon
* Edition of 250 on transparent red vinyl * Balloon was originally commissioned by the London Sinfonietta as an acoustic piece, and first performed at the Southbank centre’s Sound Unbound festival in 2019.
“This is an arrangement for synthesisers of many tunings. I called it Balloon because I had this image of thrashing a balloon with a baseball bat or something, rather than breaking or bursting it just sort of floats off - unhurt, even if you absolutely pelted it.”
Slide “ is old and one of my …
