The Madcap Laughs
On The Madcap Laughs, Syd Barrett turns his post-Floyd fracture into a stark, lopsided songbook: blues shuffles, nursery-rhyme mantras and bare confessions recorded as if they might evaporate mid-take. The result is intimate, unsettling and enduringly luminous.
Opel
On Opel, Syd Barrett’s lost songs and alternate takes surface like fragments from a parallel 1968–70, exposing the raw circuitry behind The Madcap Laughs and Barrett. What was once fan lore becomes a fragile, disorienting self‑portrait in real time.
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
On Twin Peaks – Fire Walk With Me, Angelo Badalamenti distils the series’ haunted romanticism into something darker and more exposed: smoky torch songs, doomed jazz and glacial themes that move like weather through Laura Palmer’s final days, fusing beauty and dread into a single, unforgettable atmosphere.
Amelia
On Amelia, Laurie Anderson turns Amelia Earhart’s final flight into a 22-part dream-report: chamber strings, electronics and spoken word trace a route from Oakland to disappearance, where navigation data, weather reports and ghostly lullabies fold into one drifting, time-bent monologue.
The Second Coming
180 Gram Vinyl - Limited Edition Lenticular Cover. Silver-Tongued Colored Viny. California, 1972. While Anton LaVey held court at his Black House in San Francisco, issuing pronouncements and recording The Satanic Mass for a growing cult of devotees, a more obscure ceremony was being committed to tape somewhere in Los Angeles. No press releases. No magazine profiles. No celebrity weddings or baptisms for the cameras. Just a man named Robert Jamra, an unknown organist, and a series of rituals so b…
Exorcism! Woman, Thy Name Is Satan
2nd Edition. Black vinyl. Somewhere in America, early 1960s. A tape recorder captures what no congregation was meant to hear. The voices of women possessed - or believed to be possessed - struggling against demons real or imagined while priests perform the ancient rite of exorcism. Screams. Prayers. Commands in Latin. The grinding friction between the sacred and the profane, committed to magnetic tape and then buried for decades.
Before The Exorcist made demonic possession a cultural phenomenon,…

The Reintegration of the Ear
Composed by Christina Vantzou between 2023 and 2025 after being commissioned by INA GRM, The Reintegration of the Ear defines listening as a radical, embodied act of attention: a slower kind of presence rooted in care, intimacy, and reflection.
