Islands Southwind from Hachijo a deep ambient exploration that is more tribal and spiritual than prior E.S. Island releases.

Subterranea
Newcastle-based electronic artist Bartholomew delivers Subterranea. An album which delves deep into emotional terrain—fusing generative electronics, orchestral flourishes, and raw sonic textures into a poignant meditation on instability and resilience.
All Natures Most Mundane Materials
A Colourful Storm proudly presents remastered first-time vinyl and digital editions of Lone Capture Library’s modern-day DIY environmental masterpiece, All Natures Most Mundane Materials. “Environmental”, you say? Well, this certainly wasn’t recorded for dinner party ambience nor was it commissioned by Harrods. But it does document a haphazard wander through the English countryside, feeling the air and the earth, detaching oneself from confinement while attempting to make sense of it all. Its pr…
Degrees of Freedom
Future music doesn’t come from nothing. It’s out there in latent space. This new Berlin-based imprint is devoted to the natural world in her oldest and wisest form. Not green spaces, or living things, but underneath it all: potential.
Blue Voice
Announcing Blue Voice, a playful yet unsettling 7-inch by Luke Calzonetti built from distorted cartoon voice-over outtakes — warped, abstract tone-poems that teeter between humor, chaos, and sonic sabotage. Pressed on white vinyl with a blue Pantone sleeve.
Organic Music Society
Organic Music Society is an album by trumpeter Don Cherry. Many critics consider this album the one which gives a fuller picture of Cherry as ensemble leader, spiritualist and cultural synthesizer. Indeed, Organic Music Society is a bold exploration of global musical traditions, reflecting Cherry's vision of music as a universal. Here, Cherry makes a significant shift from his free jazz roots toward a more expansive, world music fusion. Recorded in Sweden, the album features a diverse ensemble b…
Jazz In Silhouette
Jazz in Silhouette is Sun Ra’s third album, hailed as an early masterpiece blending jazz tradition with innovation. Featuring original compositions, it marks a transitional phase before his avant-garde explorations, showcasing Ra’s talents as composer, arranger, and performer leading jazz into new territory.
Almost - Not Exactly
Tara Cunningham’s Almost – Not Exactly marks a bold move into beat-driven sound, using shells, driftwood, and guitar sculpted into warped rhythms and textures. Released by Nonclassical, the EP includes dance films by Jemima Seymour and remixes by Liam Noble, Morgan Noise, and Christos Stylianides.
A Fragile Geography
To mark its 10th anniversary, Rafael Anton Irisarri’s A Fragile Geography returns, remastered and visually reimagined. Composed in the wake of personal loss, the album blends lush drones, field recordings, and melancholic melodies into a moving portrait of resilience, memory, and reinvention.
The Dip
The Dip is Thomas Ankersmit’s sixth album and first for Students of Decay. Composed on the Serge Modular, it blends psychoacoustic intensity with introspective, melodic depth. A cinematic, analog soundscape unfolds in two long pieces—an immersive, spatial, and quietly radical work.
Twilight Of Perception Redux - Volume Two 1995-2002 - Zoharum Edition
A 3CD collection of unreleased Vidna Obmana tracks (1995–2002), showcasing deep ambient textures, tribal rhythms, processed acoustic sounds, and rare vocal elements. These 16 pieces, mostly unheard until now, reveal the depth of Dirk Serries’ archive and his fully formed sonic vision.
ryūhyō
To mark the UN’s International Year of Glaciers' Preservation, sound artist Yoichi Kamimura presents “ryūhyō,” a rich sonic portrait of Japan’s drifting sea ice. Blending underwater and aerial recordings, the album reveals the melting voices and fragile ecology of Ryūhyō’s vanishing world.
Sensational Conversations
Bruno Tonisi's debut full-length, Sensational Conversations, presents itself as an artifact of impossible communication - a spectral dialogue between the Italian artist and legendary New York rapper Sensational that unfolds like an intercepted transmission from some parallel dimension. Released on lugar Alto, this singular work transforms what began as a gesture of contact into something far more enigmatic: a deconstructed hip-hop meditation that feels equal parts cosmic and street-level.
The al…

Music To Accompany The Poems Of Edgar Allan Poe
Library of the Occult Records unviels Music to Accompany the Poems of Edgar Allan Poe a haunting double LP that threads the legendary poet’s dark romanticism through the minds of some of the most evocative contemporary electronic artists.
The Library’s ever-expanding circle now united as the Library of the Occult Electronic Orchestra, bring their own haunted visions to Poe’s bleak and beautiful world. Ivan The Tolerable stretches krautrock pulses and experimental noise into something hypnotic an…
Exorcismo Electronico
Tom Hall, aka Sermons By The Devil, makes visceral electronic music the old-fashioned way: with machines. His hardware-based apocalyptic electronic music builds over longform tracks in modular-made percussive heartbeats and wavering synth melodies. It's meditative, hypnotic, and a singular sound.
With his Library Of The Occult debut Exorcismo Electrónico, Hall takes Sermons By The Devil into everything from apocalyptic tomes, electro funk excursions, and hip hop-adjacent beats, all meant to put …
Winterspring/Summerfall
*400 copies limited edition* Perhaps his most luminous work to date, multi-instrumentalist Eelco Topper, also known as Felbm, presents a resounding and timeless suite in winterspring/summerfall. The work is a natural progression of his two latest solo feats, Elements of Nature and cycli infini, as it taps into nature and cyclical patterns while expanding upon these themes through the lens of Nijūshi-sekki, the Japanese 24-point seasonal system. Whilst reading a book about the Japanese tea ceremo…
mathematical model 0010
*300 copies limited edition* Drawing from field recordings collected during a trip to Japan, boring tables saturates sonic vignettes in sentimental key, replaying familiar traces of lived experience into something more abstract. The seven tracks on mathematical model 0010, Luca Quartarone's debut album, trail through evolving tonal expanses that envelop the environment in a perpetually expanding haze of serenity. Though sonic fragments hail from the everyday, the compositions themselves inevitab…
Ethio Jazz
2025, 180gram vinyl. The Ethio Jazz album by Mulatu Astatatke is a jewel of the modern Ethiopian music. Essential. An incredibly groovy Ethiopian record, originally from 1969-1972. Amazing orchestral 'Ethio-groove' filled with US soul, jazz, sometimes Latin and the deepest Eastern rhythms, even including some great nasty and dirty fuzz guitars. A true gem of Ethiopian modern instrumental music, which illustrates perfectly this symbiosis of strong rhythms and quality arrangements of subtle yet d…
Erè Mèla Mèla
The re-release series of original Ethiopian classic vinyl continues -- the finest Ethio jazz by Mahmoud Ahmed and his band from 1975 plus two tracks from 1978.
