Hexerei Im Zwielicht Der Finsternis
Aghast was a project by Nebelhexe and Nacht, released in 1994. This album was released back then by the legendary Cold Meat Industry. "Hexerei Im Zwielicht Der Finsternis" is the real dark and gloomy ambiance played in a classical dark wave vein. Minimalism in musical content, compensated by spooky and ice-cold vocals that will haunt you. Macabre enchantresses will seduce you and take you to their ghastly realm. Hear gods cry and angels fall. Listen to horror and beauty. Let Aghast bewitch you! …
Timeshifter
Eighth album from one of the brightest space-ambient projects from 2000th. The mastermind of Algol is UK-based Daniel Kazantsev, who well known by his northern-ambient project Stuzha and cinematic drone project Black Wanderer.It's time to join Algol on a journey through infinite cosmic horizons. Leaving our rigid notion of space and time we ride the cosmic winds. "Timeshifter" delivers a portion of refined space ambient where subtle old school influences mixed with modern ambient sound.
Seeds On Talk
The first full-length album of this ambient / drone project after two warmly received EPs. Enticing guitar overflows, drowsy melodies, an abundance of field recordings, analogue drone, and sound experiments, walking the waves of memory and the corridors of dreams. Guest on flute - Valera Hip. "Sometimes it happens that you walk across the field and sit yourself down to put an ear to the ground and listen... so just imagine, under the ground, but not too beep, some seeds sitting together on a rou…
News From The Garden House
Sascha returns with his third album - lighter, brighter, and more intimate than ever: After the acclaimed Seeds on Talks and Zart, German ambient composer Sascha opens a new chapter with News From The Garden House - a collection of musical sketches as airy and luminous as a summer morning. This is a continuation of the sound we've come to love from Sascha, yet here the emotional detailing feels sharper, the storytelling more present. Each composition is shorter, more eventful, and each one invit…
Zart
The second album by the German ambient composer Sascha on The Fact of Being. A year after his high reclaimed "Seeds on Talks" that has been recorded for 7 years, Sascha returns much faster. A huge evolution in sound but the same Sascha's style. The minimalistic shine of clear analog sound, the slow and transparent like an early morning. As being photographer, Sascha's music is like pictures - a static basis is always in the same place, but all moving and details are open deep inside the composit…
Scumbag
Bones returns with Scumbag, a stripped-back, lo-fi record that distills his bleak vision into its rawest form. With skeletal beats, muffled samples, and whispered delivery, he crafts a shadowy atmosphere that's equal parts haunting and hypnotic. Known for his prolific output and DIY ethos, Bones sidesteps convention once again - this is not music for the charts, but for the dead of night. Scumbag feels like a confessional mumbled into a tape recorder, full of dread, detachment, and flashes of vu…
Un Ent Los
Un Ent Los is a composition of a total of 36 electroacoustic miniatures, for which Johannes S. Sistermanns has drawn from his wide-ranging audio archive.
The material of his composed, fleeting sound moments are sounds of the numerous musical instruments he plays and their electroacoustic transformation. In addition, field recordings from the Australian outback and the soundscapes of metropolises such as Shanghai, Hong Kong or New York can be heard, as well as the diverse resonance sounds that Si…
Tepepa
On Tepepa, Ennio Morricone turns the Mexican Revolution into an operatic fever dream, braiding solemn mariachi‑tinted themes, mystical guitar‑and‑orchestra adagios and defiant song into a score where personal vengeance and collective uprising share the same melodic bloodline.
Ourang-Outang
In August 1971, the white wizards of South Africa's psychedelic rock underground shared the stage with the black witchdoctors of the Afro-jazz avant-garde. The event was the Tribal Blues concerts at Wits Great Hall, an unprecedented cross-cultural showcase of independent music hosted by the maverick 3rd Ear Music label. Ourang-Outang (2020) presents rehearsals and jams recorded by 3rd Ear director, producer and engineer David Marks in rural KwaZulu-Natal as this unlikely alliance of musical drui…
Haunted Holiday Party
Following the release of Haunted House Party, Bradley Thomas Turner was contacted by the Cryptozoological Society of New York City to create music for their museum’s holiday exhibitions. As enigmatic as they are controversial, the secretive society gave the composer free rein to create music that celebrated their profane (and, according to their critics, pseudoscientific) explorations of the darker side of yuletide folklore. The endeavour was denounced by religious groups, the scientific communi…
Underloop
After following Luke Blair's work for approaching two decades from his 2007 debut as Lukid on Actress' Werk Discs, we're humbled to present a new album on Death Is Not The End. Following relatively hot on the heels of 2023's Tilt (his first in 11 years, not counting his work with Jackson Bailey under the Rezzett guise) Underloop brings Blair's innate knack for building loops and sound structures further to the surface, while allowing his ear for emotional expression to be dialled up a notch.

Quintessence
A remarkable document finally surfaces after nearly 40 years in the NDR archives. John Taylor - the piano master of dense, orchestral voicings and skittish melodic invention - captured here in 1987 with the full NDR Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Dieter Glawischnig. All music written and orchestrated by Taylor himself. This is the logical conclusion of everything the man stood for musically - from Azimuth to Johnny Griffin's band to this luxurious symphonic setting. Stan Sulzmann on sopra…
The Day Of The Jackal (Music From The Motion Picture)
In the centenary year of his birth, Quartet Records unveils for the first time the complete score that Georges Delerue composed for Fred Zinnemann's masterful 1973 thriller The Day of the Jackal - a work largely unheard until now, buried beneath the weight of editorial decisions that stripped the film's second half of any musical accompaniment.
Based on Frederick Forsyth's bestselling novel, the film follows a professional assassin hired by disgruntled military veterans to eliminate President Ch…
Patterns
Hidden in a remote, forgotten corner of German library music, Peter Patzer stands as a unique figure in the landscape of 1980s functional music production. A self-taught artist and musician, Patzer founded his own personal label, Crea Music, operating in complete autonomy from his base in Bremen, northern Germany. Between 1983 and 1989 he produced eight white vinyl LPs, all featuring the same austere tricolor sleeve - red, white and blue - with title and catalog number typewritten. A minimalist …
Mimosa Pudica
Mimosa Pudica brings together two works by Luciano Maggiore, both conceived as live performances structured around the presence and behaviour of an audience. In both cases, rhythmic and formal elements arise from acts of observation and listening: eye contact, involuntary sounds, shifts of attention, hesitation, withdrawal.
Mimosa Pudica reconstructs the conditions of these works in the absence of an audience. The record operates as a displacement: a concert without spectators, a live situation…
Horizonte
On Horizonte, PSI channel the late‑’70s German fusion boom into a lean, high‑octane set where Matthias Frey’s electric keys and Volkmar Zimmermann’s manic guitar ride a phenomenal rhythm section, delivering melodically rich jazz‑rock that punches as hard as it dazzles.
Four Seasons
Four Season finds Virgo - the German fusion group that first came together as Lava in 1974 - stepping away from major‑label orbit into a more autonomous, exploratory phase, stretching their jazz‑rock language into a calmly expansive, four‑part suite tracked at Tonstudio Bauer in late 1976.
Park Of Reason
On Park of Reason, Paul Chain loosens doom metal’s grip just enough to let in air, colour and delirium, fusing obsidian riffs, reverb‑soaked keys and his unmistakable glossolalic vocals into a wandering, lysergic meditation on faith, doubt and psychic drift.
balança e paixão
xavisphone's debut for Modern Love hits with unrelenting energy; a hyper-kinetic, red-lining funk that joins dots between DJ Anderson do Paraiso’s darkside minimalism, Equiknoxx’s riddmic pressure and DJ Ramon Sucesso’s walloping delirium.
Deathgames
*150 copies limited edition* After the success of his debut 'Stealer' and the relative failure of his follow up 'The Great Tower', soon to be legendary director Mikkel Mannheimer needed a hit, eventually finding it in the now cult horror classic 'Deathgames'.
Set against the backdrop of a grimy, sleazy 1980s New York, Deathgames follows savant ex-profiler turned true crime writer Gil Wrexham, as he finds himself dug far too deep in an active case. At each turn the equally clever killer is slowly…
