An Orphan Form
*300 copies limited edition* “With An Orphan Form, Ivan The Tolerable returns with a beautifully strange and immersive suite that feels both otherworldly and rooted in something organic. Drawing on kosmische drift, loose-limbed jazz, and warped psychedelic textures, the record moves like a half-remembered dream. Field recordings and nature sounds weave in and out, grounding the swirling synths and off-kilter rhythms in real earth and air. It's a record that doesn’t follow a straight line, but in…
Mesmerine 111
Illustrious Company presents... Mesmerine 111. This is a 3D soundscape based on / inspired by the frequency 111Hz, which has been historically and scientifically proven to induce a trance-like state. Findings of MRI scans suggest that at exactly 111hz, the brain switches off the prefrontal cortex, deactivating the language centre, and temporarily switches from left to right-sided dominance, which is responsible for intuition, creativity, holistic processing, inducing a state of meditation or a t…
Vite Altre
*OBS written in Italian language* "Vite Altre" is a small fanzine featuring six short stories, collected through a call launched via social media and word of mouth. It’s a modest project, born somewhat playfully. The idea took shape at the beginning of summer 2024, and the first contributions came from friends and supporters of the initiative. This collection features stories that venture into brief forays of speculative biology and science fiction. Each piece enriches a shared narrative of inte…

M.elle Le "Gladiator"
Edition of 300 copies, white vinyl. In the sprawling catalog of Franco Battiato's remarkable career, certain artifacts remain tantalizingly out of reach—works that slip between the cracks of official discographies yet represent crucial moments in the evolution of one of Italy's most visionary artists. M.Elle Le Gladiator stands as one such treasure, released in 1975 as the final and most controversial work of Battiato's experimental period for the Bla Bla label, marking the end of what many cons…

Tip! Benjamin Bennett has worked as an improvising percussionist for 10 years, touring North America and Europe as a soloist, in various ensembles, and ad-hoc collaborations. He developed a unique approach to percussion which took the lineage of free-jazz, free-improvisation, Berlin reductionism, and extended technique playing as its foundation. In searching for an expanded sonic palette, and more fluid movement between various techniques, he distilled the drumset into a small collection of drum…
For Those Who Wish to Sing Will Always Find a Song
One night, not too long ago at Union Pool in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Ryan Sawyer introduced his piece, “For Those Who Wish to Sing, Will Always Find a Song.” He invited the audience to sing along at any point they felt moved to, “just abstract ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs,’ or ‘oms,’ or whatever.” The small stage was crowded with musicians – The Shaker Ensemble – which that night included Jessica Pavone on viola, Nate Wooley on trumpet, Laura Cocks on flute, Stuart Bogie on clarinet, cellist Lester St. Loui…

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. Lyricall…

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…

Canyon Blood
Darkly romantic and steeped in candlelit dread, Canyon of Blood is the new full-length album from The Garden Gate. Built around brooding string arrangements, vintage synthesizers, and harpsichord-toned textures, the record conjures a lush, haunted landscape, part western mirage, part baroque hallucination. Laced with 60s occult psych influences and underpinned by dusty drum machines, Canyon of Blood feels like Morricone scoring a fever dream rather than a duel. It’s music that floats somewhere b…
