Shocks! Shocks! Shocks!
2026 stock, reduced price ** Comes in a snapcase with a numbered cassette has no label and a numbered j-card with different address stamp from 1st press. **
The most radical formal gesture in Shocks! Shocks! Shocks! is not any single noise burst or sample collision but the refusal - sustained across the entire cassette - to settle into a genre. Violent Onsen Geisha is Masaya Nakahara, a Tokyo-born artist who has described himself as someone with no musical talent, and who produced, precisely be…
Still House Plants
On their self‑titled debut, Still House Plants capture a raw, one‑day snapshot of their early quartet chemistry: tape‑hazed grooves, off‑kilter song forms and fragile/feral vocals sketched live to reel, already hinting at the oblique intimacy they’d grow into.
Hypnotised: A Journey Through Trance Music (1990–2005) (Book)
In Hypnotised: A Journey Through Trance Music (1990–2005), Arjan Rietveld traces trance from smoky backrooms to global main stages, charting how a marginal, emotional strain of dance music became a worldwide language of euphoria, melancholy and collective release.
Mocomono
On Mocomono, Hifiklub & Alain Johannes turn a two‑decade friendship into a glowing, slow‑burn suite: guitars, textures and voices dissolving into an ambient rock vapor where the Toulon collective’s restlessness meets Johannes’ desert‑honed lyricism.
Extracellular
On Extracellular, Hidden Horse, Sophie Sleigh-Johnson, Johnny Richards & Dave King, Domotic, Revbjelde, Saïph, Oh Mr James, Secluded Bronte, Time Attendant, Etceteral, Dolly Dolly & Fogroom and Gong Girl plug into the “space between cells”, trading signals as pulsing electro, splintered jazz, industrial dub and spoken ritual fuse into a single, buzzing nervous system.
Counting To Ten Then Back Again
"I remember when at school on the last day of term, all the class would bring games in to play, but it always seemed that no one really knew the rules or could fathom out how to play some of them. However, a lot of the games had interesting artwork and fantastic layouts with all sorts of cards and paraphernalia, which I really enjoyed. Around the same time I received a magic set for Christmas. The packaging, images, type, colours on the box and instructions were wonderful. I would entertain memb…
A Small Life and Unnoticed Movements
"A Small Life and Unnoticed Movements" was born from a live performance at Germi in Milan, later transformed in the studio through Fender Rhodes and subtle ambient processing. The six pieces are sonic micro-landscapes built around minimal gestures — a leaf’s trace, a small current, a dim light, an almost invisible presence. The music doesn’t describe nature; it follows its processes. It changes slowly, transforms without noise, and remains in a state of attentive listening.
The project is accomp…
Flowers
'Flowers', the new EP from Elizabeth Davis, finds itself at the cross-section of many factors. In part, it’s the result of Davis’ obsession with a seminal folk song. But it also coincides with her rediscovery of the voice and language as an instrument. It was recorded during an autumn residency at Sternhagen Gut, the cultural refuge run by Gudrun Gut and Thomas Fehlmann, located deep in the Uckermark countryside halfway between Berlin and the Baltic coast. The six tracks on 'Flowers' all take Pe…
Putimt Ku Tuskaas
The album explores the historical and practical union of experimental in-situ field recordings and industrial drone work in its rudimentary form, while also constructing a narrative of live, on-site cymbal play in the style of Eddie Prevost and David Jackman. Putimt ku tuskaas draws a narrative of minimally intricate experimental field recordings and industrial drones while at the same time channeling a line of influence from the early 80’s French & Italian industrial movements and would not be…

Tchic Tchic (French Bossa Nova 1963 1974)
Bossa Nova, which emerged from Brazil in the late 1950s, profoundly influenced French music, manifested by artists like Pierre Barouh and Georges Moustaki. This movement, known as Musica Popular Brasileira (MPB), reflected a blend of modernity and a lifestyle that was both cool and metaphysical. The sound attracted various musicians for its poetic essence, playful rhythms, and the American jazz-bossa and jazz-samba fusion. João Gilberto, a key figure in Bossa Nova, stated that its foundational s…
Mast Year
The first song cycle collaboration by this new partnership is a highly adventurous and ambitious work, and one which explores a journey through dark places expressed in an improvisation-based language of strange sounds and textures, plus some unexpected left turns into electronic and choral music, before emerging from the woodland and into the morning light. I make a lot of records. In fact most years I release more albums than I make live performances. But this one is special to me in many ways…
Ardeur
On Ardeur, Eskaton condense Zeuhl’s celestial fury into a tighter, more direct form: spiralling dual vocals, ferocious rhythm section and glowing keyboards driving short, explosive pieces that feel like 4 Visions rewritten as concentrated plasma.
Xerrox Vol.3
Xerrox Vol. 3 is the eighth solo studio album by German electronic artist Alva Noto, released in 2015 as part of the ongoing Xerrox penthalogy, which began with Xerrox Vol. 1 (2007) and Xerrox Vol. 2 (2009).Inspired by formative influences such as Andrei Tarkovsky's 1971 film Solaris, La Isla Misteriosa y el Capitán Nemo by Juan Antonio Bardem, and Henri Colpi, Carsten Nicolai exchanges austerity for cinematographic lushness in the remarkably widescreen third volume of his Xerrox series.

Zmiany / Schimbări
Błoto has never cared much for dominant aesthetics. Instead, the band has consistently chosen paths less travelled, unexplored territories and uncharted routes where experimentation is not so much a conscious decision as a natural state of being. After years of a rather hermetic approach to recording their albums, the time for change has come. A trip to Bucharest and the opportunity to collaborate with the community of musicians associated with the underground label Future Nuggets, led by Ion D,…
Adjustable Phase
Adjustable Face, the newly formed duo of Milan-based musicians Marco Paltrinieri (Canti Magnetici, Granny Records) and Matteo Pennesi (Babau, Artetetra, {scope}), explores the intersection of glitch, ambient, and computer music through different composition and production strategies.
Their debut album "Adjustable Phase", soon-to-be-released via Kohlhaas, was built through a process of editing, reassembling, and refining extended improvisation sessions recorded throughout 2024. Primarily based on…
Stella Maris
Performed by Giovanni Di Domenico on a late autumn night in 2021 on the 2859-pipe organ (Giuseppe Zanin, 1970) at Chiesa di Stella Maris, Milano Marittima.
Giovanni Di Domenico: pipe organ, Chiesa di Stella Maris, Milano Marittima, Italy, November 26th, 2021.
Tri-n-os
"tri-n-os" —stemming from the ancient Greek word θρήνος (thrínos) meaning lament, wail, mourn and cognate to Sanskrit ध्रणति (dhráṇati, “to sound”), Latin drēnsō (to cry, to murmur), and Old English drān (drone)— unfolds as a deep delve into the realm of improvisation, drone and feedback. A sonic exploration of the lament as an open process: unruly, fragmented, and recursive —not simply as emotional expression, but as a state of being and a resonant system. Drawing on the principles of cyberneti…
Mirage Cafe
On Cafe Mirage, Satoshi & Makoto let their trademark hardware lyricism bloom into a quietly cinematic suite: refined electronica, ambient haze and soft‑focus groove tracing the contours of an imaginary café suspended between daydream and reality.
Pioen
*200 copies limited edition* The album was recorded in a small chapel of a monastery in the city center of Ghent. A chapel, by nature, is a place of contemplation and meditation, which inevitably influenced the music. Movements slow down, attention is sharpened and the overwhelming silence of the space becomes part of the music. Sound and silence are meticulously woven into each other. Even when the music grows at times dense and heavy, there is an ever-present sense of closeness and intimacy. T…
