Laputa
Laputa, a title taken from the fantastical floating island of Gulliver's Travels is aptly named as 'The album that never landed' for, apart from a limited touchdown in Japan, Laputa was never released. This mystical world is a summation of Yokota's journey so far, a complex and at times challenging work but immeasurably rewarding. Beguiling and bewitching in equal measure.
Over fifteen undulating sonic fugue states, he guides listeners round a liminal world, made up of familiar materials but for…
To Dream Is To Destroy
*110 copies limited edition* This is the fourth studio album of Kryptogen Rundfunk and the first one since the project moved from Russia to the Netherlands. Six tracks full of weird trademark radio noises and interceptions, heavy bass drones and piercing high frequencies, abstract electronic signals and quirky samples. These layered compositions are slowly building up, creating thick mesmerizing walls of sound, yet at the same time leaving room for a bit of flippancy. An uneasy ride for a restle…
A Different Definition Of Love
*100 copies limited edition* Brock Van Wey's bvdub project reaches its landmark 30th full-length album with a special tale of unexpected love and loyalty found, innocence lost, and the silent spaces that remain.
Black sky hides your stars,Fall from the heavens with might,Silent you arrive.Giants in your path,Perish those who stand opposed,Felled by love they know.Empty spaces yearn,To know once again,A lost yesterday.Through sun and sands dry,Oceans drown hearts of steel stars,This place remembe…

*33 hand-numbered copies* We present a new recording by the enigmatic project Sagart Alhague.
By definition, folk music is traditional music that originates among the common people of a particular culture, which raises the question: who are those people, and what is their culture in this case? The answer is not obvious, but a few things are clear: their morals are peculiar, their customs are unsettling, and their history is filled with ineffable suffering and secrets.

*80 copies limited edition* Since 2013 on NTS, Time is Away (Jack Rollo and Elaine Tierney) has redefined the concept of radio storytelling. Theirs is a cultured and visceral assemblage that weaves ambient, sacred music, dub, and field recordings with literary and cinematic fragments. A work on memory and sonic resistance that culminated in the acclaimed compilations Ballads (2022) and Searchlight Moonbeam (2023).
We invited them to an event in collaboration with Quindi Records at the Church of …
Quando crolla
*70 copies limited edition* I was invited to a Drove session in October 2023. It was my first time engaging with a sound environment centered on prolonged, mellow listening outside of club chillouts. I set out to rework the live recordings and distill something distant and quiet that I felt was unfolding beneath the surface — a simpler texture, a droning blanket for the ears, a couple of mind pillows.
Alyssa
*300 copies limited edition. Black sleeves with paste-on artwork and a postcard* Debut LP from a new Gothenburg duo consisting of Irma Krook (Makthaverskan) and Dan Johansson (Sewer Election). Alyssa takes elements from Irmas Military Arms 12" released a few years ago and combines it with the mind expanding synth stuff Dan has explored with the Psychic Panorama recordings recently. Adding a few larger-than-life piano bangers and whatnot, the result is a dreamy and mesmerizing night time album …
Complete Works for Multiple Piano
In Complete Works for Multiple Piano, Morton Feldman’s quietly radical writing for three or more hands is heard as a three‑hour continuum of hushed, hovering sonorities, where time dilates and the piano becomes a shared, breathing instrument.

Geschrieben in Wasser
On geschrieben in wasser., Klaus Lang pares the piano quartet down to a faintly breathing organism, letting soft, slowly shifting harmonies hover at the edge of audibility like something written on water just before it disappears.
