split
From the enigmatic fringes of experimental sound comes an extraordinary split release between K/S/R and The Tulsa Ball Room Singers—a bold document of two singular live performances where music and moving image intertwine.
Stenhjärta 2
The second album from Stenhjärta follows up Gryning Kommer Röd (Grapefruit Records, 2024) and very much continues in the same vein while approaching a rather damn catchy pop song format at times. Fear not, Stenhjärta is still a group heavily rooted in the Swedish prog/folk tradition of the 70's, the 13 songs here just showcases a somewhat wider scope, the duo taking things a notch further with more elaborate songwriting and a whole slew of wonderful A-sides along the often damaged ride.

Altar
*2025 stock* NOx is the sonic reaction between Pedro Roque and Jerome Faria. Both accomplished musicians with diverse backgrounds in various musical genres, Roque brings extensive experience and a passion for pushing boundaries at Portugal's heavy music scene, while Faria contributes with innovative soundscapes and experimental techniques. Together, they conjure an immersive experience that defies clear definitions and challenges the boundaries of experimental music.
Omni
First time meeting of Sam Wenc (US/pedal steel + objects) and Stefano Grasso (Milan/percussion + recorder). The record is one take, broken into 10 tracks, exploring the boundaries of the rhythmic grid, never quite landing inside it, but hovering on its perimeter, through extended technique, melody, and disharmony.

Medusa
Dead Janitor is the alter-ego for Slovak electronic technician Braňo Findrik. Over the past decade, he has steadily produced a series of digital releases leading to his debut Medusa LP for Urbsounds. With an arsenal of pixelated breakbeats and stuttering samples, Dead Janitor presents an adventurous form of polymetric electronica, echoing the complex IDM explorations of the pioneering work of Aphex Twin and Autechre. Medusa is an apt title for the album that hybridizes digital and analogue techn…
Chwalfa
Tip! “Chwalfa” (Welsh for “dispersal, rout, upheaval, upset, or a confused or chaotic state”) documents the first return of Incapacitants to the UK since 2016. With the windows boarded up and the subs doubled, two ordinary looking blokes Toshiji Mikawa and Fumio Kosakai obliterate OTO’s usual whisper hush with clipped out, scorched earth tape loops and pedal chains - transporting the room to the planet’s furnace core and back again. It’s all music, all at once, in a whorling vortex of time bendi…
All It Was
This music was written in a period of intense emotions, as the grief and pain of losing my father tangled and fused with horror and despair at the genocide in Palestine – but life is complicated, and the music also comes from joy and love “Listening intently to raptors” is dedicated to the great bassist John Lindberg, and the title comes from an email correspondence we had during covid lockdown. “After a break” appeared fully formed after quite a long period of composer’s block, while listening …
Yavireri: Los que viven en lo profundo
Yavireri - a Matsigenka word that can be understood as "those who live in the depths" - describes the spirits of the forest and those who, from within the jungle, sustain a way of life rooted in listening, vision, and oral tradition.
Beirut Birds
Beirut Birds (طيور بيروت) is a sonic memory capsule honoring (inter)personal stories of migration, displacement, and the cyclical turbulent circumstances in Lebanon. Transforming her multi-year project, multidisciplinary artist and composer Nour Sokhon crystallizes the performance Beirut Birds (طيور بيروت) into her long-awaited debut album. When presented and performed live, it is accompanied by juxtaposed images of the Lebanese capital’s city life and avian migration across the Mediterranean Se…
Stinger
Recorded live at Chicago’s renowned listening rooms, Constellation in February 2023, and Hungry Brain in July 2023, Stinger captures an exhilarating blend of precision and spontaneity. This album showcases a band that has fine-tuned its sound while embracing the thrill of unpredictability. At the forefront of this musical conversation is Keefe Jackson, a saxophonist whose deep and resonant tones on the tenor saxophone reflect his artistry as both composer and performer. Celebrated for his abilit…
Blare Blow Bloom!
*2025 stock* Performing the compositions of band leader Adam Shead, Microplastique creates music that is both absurd in its aesthetic and serious in its execution. "blare blow bloom!" consists of 10 tracks recorded live in stereo during the ensemble’s July 2024 tour throughout the United States. Throughout the tour, the ensemble performed 10 compositions at each concert, each with vastly different approaches and outcomes. Utilizing their keen improvisational abilities and shared language to morp…
Simulate
*2025 stock* Since its Fall 2022 Inception, Undisclosed Sims has quickly become one of the most creative and prolific bands working in the Chicago scene of jazz and improvised music. Simulate, the group’s first recorded material, exposes the band’s deep and diverse collective language producing an album that draws influence from ambient music, kraut rock, free jazz, and art-rock. Throughout-Wills McKenna, Luke Polipnick, Andrew Scott Young, and Adam Shead-prove again and again that they are here…
Hum
*2025 stock* Since the Stein/Smith/Shead trio's inception in the fall of 2021 they have quickly become one of the most creative and prolific bands working in the fields of jazz and improvised music. Hum see's the group moving deeper into their collective language, producing an album that is unlike any bass clarinet trio album recorded to date. Throughout this recording Jason Stein proves again and again that he is indeed the greatest living bass clarinetist working in improvised music today. Dam…
Açid Blüüs Räägs Vol.2 Remixed
Following quick fire sell outs of recent 45s from The Hologram People and Delta, next up on North London’s prolific Feral Child label is an absolute showstopper; the mighty Jonny Halifax Invocation return with a new set of remixes from their phenomenal second full length “Açid Blüüs Räägs: Vol. 2” released last year to rave reviews, via their own Greasy Noise imprint and God Unknown.
The East London based collective have been active since 2021, releasing a stash of amazing lathe cut releases, a…
Le telescope de la mort
Composed of 7 tracks, which oscillate between post-medieval melodies, ghost-
wave and future music of the 70s... Their universe resembles a soaring
soundtrack, the kind of German TV movie that ends well but from which you can
never really escape.
Albus
EXTNDDNTWRK is the enduring solo project of Andrew Fearn, who is more commonly recognised as one half of Sleaford Mods. While akin to his role in his main group with respect to primarily working with electronic sounds, samples and rhythms, EXTNDDNTWRK is a far more mannered affair whose approach is concerned with atmospherics, occasional tempered beats perfect for a late night drive along a deserted motorway, near-ambient swerves into neo-minimalism, crisp melodies and big grooves swollen with t…
