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 …

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.
For a Lemon Tree
On For a Lemon Tree, Kristofer Svensson, Maya Bennardo and Erik Blennow Calälv cultivate a fragile, glowing sound‑world where violin, bass clarinet and kacapi trace slow, intertwined lines, turning silence, breath and overtone into their primary compositional materials.
Clarinet Quintet
On his Clarinet Quintet, Jürg Frey stretches time until it feels almost weightless, using soft clarinet breaths and hushed strings to trace a slow, luminous drift where tiny inflections become whole landscapes of feeling.
Flare
On Flare, Sylvia Lim turns six chamber works into a series of luminous close‑ups, magnifying tiny shifts of timbre, breath and touch until fragile sounds bloom into something cathartic, raw and quietly destabilising.
Tending
On Tending, James Creed threads four ensemble works through a shared practice of careful, collective attention, letting sparse parts, quiet doublings and gently unstable textures accumulate into music that feels like weather slowly forming in the air around you.
Of Time
On Of Time, Underground Spiritual Game - baritone saxophonist Eden Bareket, bassist Ran Livneh and drummer Eran Fink - trace an imaginary route from city grime to rural trance, fusing Ethiopian jazz, Afrobeat pulse and cosmic free improvisation into a single, slow‑burning ritual.
Conclusio
On Conclusio, Asmus Tietchens bends back toward his industrial roots, folding corroded pulses, cold drones and acerbic detail into a suite that feels like “German Angst” hammered into stark, sculptural sound.
