Weston Olencki's compositions for the Quebec percussion trio Bascaille: tuned fiddles, homemade zithers, watershed debris, speaker cones and an upright piano in two long pieces of friction, resonance and lopsided pulse.
Four CDs from Jon Rose's Rosenberg Museum, the decades-long project around the violin: homemade and hacked string instruments, true and invented violin stories, and 37 tracks from the museum now housed in central Australia.
Jessica Pavone's sixth solo viola album builds on the open strings and their sympathetic resonances, with electronic effects as a playing partner and guest appearances by Fred Frith on guitar and Joe Lally on bass.

Tip! When Peter “Sleazy” Christopherson passed away in 2010, he left several projects in different stages of completion. In 2014, seven of these tracks were assembled by people close to him and released as Time Machines II on a limited deluxe memory stick. The edition sold out almost immediately and has since become a collector’s item.
Despite its title, Time Machines II is very different from Coil’s 1998 drone classic. More varied in sound, it recalls instrumental Coil works such as The Restitu…

'Σ [sigma]' is the new album by composer, saxophone player and improviser Antonio Raia. The first chapter of a trilogy dedicated to Berlin — where Raia spent several weeks recording alongside producer Francesco Donadello in different locations — 'Σ [sigma]' reflects on the relationship between body, space and sound, understood as a performative gesture closely linked to the space that hosts it.
Recorded inside the Wasserturm in Prenzlauer Berg—the oldest water tower in Berlin, built in 1877—'Σ …
Two familiar faces within the Kohlhaas fold—Stefano Calderano as part of the trio McCorman (2023), and Giovanni Di Domenico through his solo works "Polvere di rabbia" (2021) and "Stella Maris" (2025)—join now forces on "Caperea". Bridging Rome and Brussels, where Calderano and Di Domenico are respectively based, the record marks the first collaborative LP by the two musicians.

Blending electroacoustic composition, analogue electronics, magnetic tape and sound design, his work explores the physical qualities of sound, embracing imperfection, transformation and degradation as expressive compositional tools.

*100 copies limited edition* Twenty years after its original release, The Sound Of Lights When Dim remains a remarkable opening statement from Drew Sullivan’s Slow Dancing Society. First released on September 6, 2006, the eight-track album established a musical language that Sullivan would continue to explore and refine for the next two decades: slowly unfolding electronics, treated guitar, soft rhythmic movement and melody shaped less by conventional structure than by memory, atmosphere and emo…
With In Sore Bless, Cecilia and Ali emerge as The Discretes, following and cultivating diverse veins of sound. Post-noise ballads, distilled jams, fragments of Anatolian-Trip-Hop and other genre-amalgams, all become a supplicant at St. Cecilia’s altar, praying to be guided by her voice. Cecilia sings in English, French and Italian, calling to an omnipresent yet elusive love, binding, repelling, fragile, transient, spiritual. Her lyrics are recounted over a background of synth drones, hand percus…

Released in November 2020, Pathways emerged from an introspective period in Alexander Carlo Buckley’s life, presenting four lovely loop-based compositions shaped by hypnotic, consonant arrangements, fleeting melodies, and a patient sense of ebb and flow.
