Marrow
** Black UV printed tape dubbed at Headless Duplicate Tapes in a multi-cassette plastic case containing the Marrow tabletop RPG poster and insert with rules to play. ** Marrow – Excerpt offers a concentrated immersion into the strange, shifting world built by Merchants, the Italian electronic duo of Alberto Ricca aka Bienoise and Davide Amici. Since 2016, the pair have treated the studio less as a neutral workspace than as a speculative cartography lab, using samples and synthesis to sketch the…
Lahar
LAHAR is the new musical work of Bandung power duo KUNTARI, Indonesia. A deeply atmosferic, bone-melting session of ancestral doom sounds delivered by the contemporary Indonesian primal music specialists. LAHAR is a Javanese term which was adopted in geology to describe a violent type of mudflow or debris flow composed of a slurry of pyroclastic material, rocky debris and water. The material flows down from a volcano, typically along a river valley. Lahars are often extremely destructive and dea…
Light
On Light, Palle Mikkelborg condenses a lifetime of orchestral colour into a quietly radiant final opus: solo trumpet, flugelhorn and piano drift through self‑designed soundscapes, joined sparingly by harp and guitar, like hymns remembered in slow motion.
The Pink Violin (Book)
The Pink Violin by Jon Rose and Rainer Linz is a gloriously over‑the‑top fake biography of non‑existent violinist–composer Dr. Johannes Rosenberg, a “reformist parody” that lampoons art‑school scholarship, new‑music mythologies and violin culture with such detail and deadpan rigor it almost passes for the real thing.
Celestial Suite
On Celestial Suite, Atlantis Jazz Ensemble stretch their spiritual soul-jazz into a full skyward arc, an unbroken studio suite where modal grooves, Afro-Latin currents and meditative codas move like one long, rising breath.
Oceanic Suite
On Oceanic Suite, Atlantis Jazz Ensemble ride a warm, late‑night current of modal grooves and spiritual inflections, with trumpet, alto, Rhodes, bass and drums flowing together in live‑off‑the‑floor conversations that feel both loose and meticulously steered.
Call to a Crow - Appelle un Corbeau, 2024 (Leporello Book)
** 2026 Stock. Leporello French/English ** Call to a Crow – Appelle un corbeau gathers a series of short poems by David Horvitz, originally conceived for the first Son Biennale in 2023, into a leporello that reads like a pocket field guide to listening and imagining in the Alps. Each phrase is both poem and instruction, a small performative score that invites the reader to tune themselves to the landscape and its absences. “Imagine the sound of the footsteps of someone who is no more,” “Imagine …
1998 (Book)
** 2026 Stock. Edition of 500 ** 1998 brings back into circulation one of Ugo Rondinone’s most intimate and unsettling projects: a diary from his five-part cycle of the 1990s, written and drawn between 1992 and 1998 as the AIDS crisis pushed a newly fearful, homophobic Western society to shove queer lives back into the shadows. Rather than responding with slogans or safe symbolism, Rondinone invented “Ugo,” an artist and drug addict living in Zurich, and followed him across hundreds of pages of …
Music in Continuous Motion
Bill Orcutt is back with what might be the most beautiful record in his 21st-century guitar quartet series. Music in Continuous Motion (Palilalia, LP/CD) pointedly steps away from the cut-and-paste constructivism of Music for Four Guitars into a sonic stratum that's - as Tom Carter writes - "yearningly melodic, resolutely human, and built for performance." Four guitars, twelve tracks, most hovering around two-and-a-half minutes each. No waste. No fat. Pure music.
Where Music for Four Guitars ope…
Dream Sequence of an Ancient Forest
Dream Sequence of an Ancient Forest gathers pieces composed between 2017 and 2023 into a continuous arc that feels less like a compilation and more like a slow, lucid dream. Across the album, Madli Marje Gildemann listens with almost scientific care to the smallest workings of the natural world – the secret exchanges of plants, the nocturnal trajectories of birds, the micro‑rhythms of an old‑growth forest – then lets imagination bloom around those observations. Her sound world is atmospheric and…
Hermetika IX
Hermetika IX – Vox Angeli II pushes Bernhard Lang’s obsession with loops, fracture and stylistic collision into explicitly metaphysical territory. Centring the female voice, the piece takes its texts from the Nag Hammadi scriptures, a body of early Christian and Gnostic writings in which the tension between spirit and flesh, transcendence and fall, is particularly charged. Across four sharply contrasted movements, Lang treats those texts less as doctrine than as volatile material: sensual biblic…
Paris Public Spaces 2
On Paris Public Spaces 2, Éric La Casa and Seijiro Murayama stage brief, focused vocal interventions across Parisian sites, letting microphone placement and urban acoustics turn spoken sound into a moving portrait of how voice and city continuously re‑shape one another.
Or Gare: funeral procession music from Ryfylke, Norway
On Or Gare, Stine Janvin and Morten Joh slow time to a funereal crawl, reanimating Ryfylke’s “liksong” tradition as a ghost‑lit microtonal ritual where voices, synths and creaking percussion hover between lament, liturgy and quietly glowing electronics.
Nachleben
Nachleben is a limited-edition cassette release by Italian pianist and composer Giovanni Di Domenico, issued by Dasa Tapes, a Greek label specializing in experimental music. The album features two long-form tracks: "Parts I & II" (19:34) and "Part III" (18:06), showcasing Di Domenico's signature minimalist piano style marked by repetition, subtle nuance, and contemplative atmospheres.
Di Domenico's work on Nachleben embodies his personal approach to contemporary minimalism, emphasizing concentr…
Act Against War
This album emerged from a chance encounter at Casa del Popolo in Montreal during the Suoni per il Popolo festival. Over the years Tim Daisy and Stefan Christoff kept in touch and in 2023 started exchanging more seriously about working on some music together. The conversations and exchanges over the years had revolved around trying to find pathways for collective action in the arts to support movements against war.
Particularly the two discussed and collaborated on a global radio broadcast to cri…
Macchina Che Respira
Piero Fogliati’s “Macchina che respira” (1990) is a kinetic sculpture built entirely around the realization of the author’s artistic utopia: imbuing lifeless machinery with the rhythmic and self-sustaining process of an organism. It is an apparatus of ontological interrogation, positioned at the final, unstable boundary between the organic and the artifact. In “Macchina che respira”, the fundamental function of life -respiration- is translated into an industrial imperative, forcing the observer …
