Materia Vibrante
*100 copies limited repress on purple vinyl* Small sounds and huge drones populate the surrealistic landscape of “Materia Vibrante”, Susana López’s gorgeous new album, her third for Elevator Bath and first on vinyl. Extraordinarily evocative, this LP is filled with detail and emotive tranquility, while occasionally swelling with the intensity of a raging sea. Surely López’s most elegant and finely hewn work to date, “Materia Vibrante” offers a fully enveloping sonic meditation. The album was bui…
Tides of the Moonsea
*200 copies limited edition* Watching the smoldering rubble of Hillsfar in the earliest moments of dawn, something catches your eye along the docks. Raiders return to their ship, checking the sails and preparing the rigging to make their escape. Seeing no other opportunities, you find the spaces between their attention to board the raiding vessel to stow away beneath the deck. In a short time, the raiders shout as their boat is heaved through rough waters, making great motions diving up and down…

For The Raven
*300 copies limited edition* For the Raven was due to be the next release after Ligeliahorn on the Nekrophile Rekords label. Sadly the project fell through and, even more sadly, it coincided with a number of the celebrants being rounded up to enjoy a short holiday at Her Majesty's Pleasure, expense and, indeed, insistence. By the time our intrepid Disciples Of Doom re emerged the momentum had been lost and For the Raven was consigned to the Metgumbnervaults to, until recently, only make an occas…
Ligeliahorn
*300 copies limited edition* Ligeliahorn was the second release from Metgumbnerbone, the first being the cassette Dreun (recently re released as a handsome double album on the Infinite Fog label). Ligeliahorn was originally released on the A Mission record label in 1984. The whole album was the product of but one night.. Improvised in a derelict factory down on the fog enshrouded banks of The River Tyne in north east England. The instrumentation comprised mainly of what was already there augment…
Materia
Italian sound artist Giulio Aldinucci returns with his 5th album on KARL: „Materia” is unsurprisingly a truly masterfully composed and sound-designed ambient masterpiece that adds perfectly to a series of critically acclaimed albums like “Disappearing In A Mirror” (2018) or “Shards Of Distant Times” – some of which made it onto several year’s best lists.
Mystical Obscurant
Over the course of more than four decades, Andrew Chalk has created one of ambient and experimental music's most distinctive, influential, and enduring bodies of work. Though his recordings have taken many forms—from the raw, post-Industrial sounds of Ferial Confine in the 1980s to the fragile guitar meditations, blurred keyboard studies, and richly textured collages that populate the Faraway Press catalogue—they remain united by a singular sensibility: an uncommon attentiveness to atmosphere, n…
Seance
*200 copies limited edition* Ten years after "Il dipinto ucciso", Candor Chasma returns with "Seance". While the album comes full circle, revisiting the project's original fixations - the spirit world, stripped of any gothic overtone - it also signals a decisive shift in sonic language. Frameworks of abstract noise, fractured post-techno structures, asymmetric rhythms and heavily processed percussion, filters and saturation pushed to their limits: all shape five compositions poised between hypno…
Beyond The Emotional Flood
*200 copies limited edition* The seventh record from the Open to the Sea project (Enrico Coniglio, Saverio Rosi and Matteo Uggeri), Beyond the Emotional Flood, was created between Venice, Amsterdam and Milan over a five-month period in 2023, during which the three musicians experienced, separately yet synchronically connected, moments carrying an intense emotional weight.
Channeling these experiences into the four Acts that structure the album's 10 tracks allowed them to sublimate the emotional …
Rifugio per mille persone
*200 copies limited edition* “Rifugio per mille persone” is a place before it is an album. A sonic shelter built by Alessandro Sgarito and Roberto Mares starting in November 2024, through a slow process of listening, layering, and waiting. The nine tracks that make up the record move between ambient, post-rock, electroacoustic, and new classical music, shaping suspended, essential soundscapes permeated by silence. Contributions to the album come from Helga Raimondi (Dictaphone), Laura Bisceglia …
Sea Songs
The compilation "Return to Acapulco - Music for Hotels Vol. 1" (13 / Silentes), curated by Vittore Baroni in the summer of 2024, included 16 songs composed by 16 musicians to provide soundtracks for the various areas of a typical seaside hotel. The following year, "Summer Fun", the second volume in a unique series exploring new ways to combine tourism and culture, contained 20 covers of well-known and lesser-known songs dedicated to summer, performed by 20 artists. Raising the bar, for the 2026 …
Redemption Suite I-IX: For Piano & Textures
Tip! *Edition 100 copies* A daily ritual turned into a suite. Written in the wake of Ryuichi Sakamoto's passing in early 2023, Redemption Suite I-IX: For Piano & Textures finds Richard Pike - once of the Warp-affiliated band PVT, now among the most quietly compelling figures working between the piano and the machine - returning to the instrument each afternoon as an act of what he calls "real-time composition". Issued by Salmon Universe, it is his first record centered on the piano, and among th…

The Call
On The Call, Henry Grimes refuses the “leader date as reward” narrative, stepping out as a co‑equal melodic force with Perry Robinson and Tom Price in a trio document where free jazz means deep listening, not just full‑bore blaze.
Trio
On Trio, Lowell Davidson explodes the piano tradition from the inside out, trading clustered storms, sudden lyric breaks and pregnant silence with Gary Peacock and Milford Graves in a one‑off 1965 session that still feels dangerously new.
The Will Come Is Now
On The Will Come Is Now, Ronnie Boykins finally moves from Sun Ra’s bass chair to the centre of the frame, leading a septet through six originals where earthy groove, cosmic harmony and astonishing arco work reveal the band’s quiet architect as a full‑blown composer.
A Prison Of Measured Time
An official release of previously unreleased material from Coil, strewn with parts that would eventually come together into ‘Backwards’
From Dust We Came... To Dust We Return
**2026 stock** Noah Howard should need no introduction. The American alto saxophonist was born in1943 in New Orleans, who moved to Europe in 1968, and eventually settled in Brussels after living in Paris and Nairobi. He was a member of the avant-garde jazz movement of the 1960s and, amongst many influential albums, made the seminal Black Ark album with Arthur Doyle in 1969. This album came about as a result of Justin Wiggan’s love of Howard’s music. 5 years after Howard’s death in 2010, Justin w…
