Cn[x]
“For the heads”. A pliable phrase to the point of cliché, but also one that happens to be particularly apt for Misha Hering’s debut LP under his own name, Cn[x]. The deep, exploratory music on Cn[x] was recorded in the aftermath of a heavy concussion that left Hering unable to do his day job as sound engineer at Holy Mountain studio on east London’s Hackney Road. With time to fill and daunting cognitive rehabilitation to complete, Hering returned to music making after a long absence.

Songs Before Bed (2022)
Songs Before Bed (2022) marks Otto Benson’s first physical release under his own name, following earlier work under aliases including Memo Boy, OTTO, and Pudding Club.
Originally published as a digital-only release through Otto's own WNOADIARWB website and platforms on New Year's Eve 2022, Songs Before Bed bridges the gap between the more experimental psychedelic electronic works of OTTO and his most recent release, the acclaimed Peanut, released on NYE 2025. Blending brief pop fragments with me…
Ç
Ç (pronounced “cédilla”) is the name of a duo consisting of Italian-American audiovisual and performance artist Luciano Chessa and French multi-instrumentalist and sound explorer squncr (François Larini). It is also the title of their first, self-titled album, a scintillating collection of sound art, oddball orchestral movements and beautiful oeuvres électroniques. Each track unfolds with eerie precision, opening wide meditative sceneries. Ç was recorded in Monaco during Chessa's one-year artist…
Volatilités
A solo improvisation and composition by Lionel Garcin (on soprano saxophone) inspired by listening to natural environments and built on exploring the harmonic possibilities of the instrument.
Elyria Sound
On Elyria Sound, Michael A. Muller reduces his language to one guitar, one room, one storm‑lit reel of tape, turning newly invented tunings into a hushed cycle of lullabies and laments that hold both the comfort of home and the certainty of its passing.
Baur Bentur
Dewa Alit, master of radical Balinese gamelan, returns to Black Truffle with Baur Bentur. Genetic (2020, BT063) introduced international listeners to the magical sound-world of Alit’s Gamelan Salukat, who perform on instruments tuned to a unique scale derived from modified versions of two traditional Balinese scales. The two pieces heard on Chasing the Phantom (2022, BT093) further demonstrated his radical fusion of tradition and experimentation, with passages where unorthodox techniques make th…
Exactement
*2026 repress* Souffle Continu records is thrilled to present Byard Lancaster – Exactement, one of his 4 legendary albums released on Jef Gilson’s Palm Records in the 1970s. At the beginning of the 1960s, at the Berklee College of Music, Byard Lancaster met some feisty friends: Sonny Sharrock, Dave Burrell and Ted Daniel. It is easy to see why he rapidly became involved in free jazz. Once he was settled in New York, he appeared on Sunny Murray Quintet, recorded under the leadership of the drum c…
Funny Funky Rib Crib
*2026 repress* Souffle Continu records is thrilled to present Byard Lancaster – Funny Funky Rib Crib, one of his 4 legendary albums released on Jef Gilson’s Palm Records in the 1970s. At the beginning of the 1960s, at the Berklee College of Music, Byard Lancaster met some feisty friends: Sonny Sharrock, Dave Burrell and Ted Daniel.

Windmills
*150 copies limited edition* On the website fancymoon.com, CON himself describes 'Windmills' as Electro Cosmic Metal Industrial. It comprises 33 tracks and represents a continuous body of electronic music. The album was recorded and performed in the same vein as 'III Kugeln', serving as its predecessor, and is made up of four “solo electric pieces”: Sack, Turbine, Raumknoten, and Fenster. As FdW noted in his review of 'III Kugeln', this is not ambient, not dance music, not musique concrète, not …
Upwards
*150 copies limited edition* The music on 'Upwards' is constantly surprising and as always, it's expansive and incredibly captivating. The work comprises 19 "electric miniature" compositions, and one could say they all lead nowhere – and this is true, because CON has always valued the journey itself rather than the destination. It is intensely rich and beautifully remastered by Guillermo Pizarro at Vitória Régia Studios.
Akvoturo
*265 copies limited edition* With Akvoturo, Kohoutek is delving into a more experimental form of their brand of US psych/space jams, a loose concept album sonically examining the consequential role that water has played in nascent civilizations, starting from our ancestral habitats. The title is in Esperanto, in theory a language as universal to humanity as water is to its diet, as well as an homage to the label ESP which is a substantial inspiration on the Kohoutek ethos, informed by revolution…
s/t
This tape is the culmination of a series of collaborative performances between Kevin Coleman and J.W. Bird that took place in the latter half of 2024. It is meant to encapsulate the spirit and energy of those performances; spontaneous and communicative. Musical conversations between banjo and fiddle that left no language off the table. A great combination of elements from avant-garde classical, to American Traditional/Primitive, and free improv, exploring improvisational spaces of widely varied …
One
Anonymous transmissions from a spectral, dead-of-night mystery zone. Recorded in 1996 and originally release by Japan's enigmatic La Musica Records label on limited cassette. A group that deconstructs and liberates the chance nature of contemporary classical and noise music enough so that their boundaries blur. Available for the first time on vinyl and digital. Recorded in 1996 and released without any identifying credits in an essentially private cassette edition, Bibiotheca Hermetica's sole re…
Concealed Under a Strange Tongue
Tip. After fifteen years of silence, the legendary but rarely heard project Mana ERG returns with their latest album, Concealed Under a Strange Tongue. Written entirely by founder and composer Bruno De Angelis, this twelve-track collection is not to be considered a comeback, but rather a belated farewell to the band's devoted fans and supporters and a thank you to all those musicians who, over the years, added their touch to the project.
Dedicated to the memory of Deborah Roberts, a distinguishe…
La Manzana Mágica
One of 12k’s most endearing artists is back with a new album. From Argentina, Federico Durand presents La Manzana Mágica, an album in signature Federico style inspired by his collection of Cinderlla stamps, in a way only Federico could do. Named after the folk-tale heroine, Cinderellas, throughout the last century, were considered inferior to official postage stamps, but became a sought-after collector’s item. There are some pieces whose origin, circulation context, or illustrator’s name are unk…
Wind Dynamic Organ, One & Two
*2026 stock* Zimoun returns to 12k with Wind Dynamic Organ, One & Two, a pair of longform pieces created with the Wind Dynamic Organ (Prototype III), located in Bern, Switzerland. Zimoun spent many sessions over a few years exploring and recording the instrument and recounts: “I have had the wonderful opportunity to engage regularly and over a longer period with the ‘Wind-Dynamic Organ, Prototype III’—a truly outstanding and marvellous instrument developed by Daniel Glaus and his team. In contra…
Wind Dynamic Organ, Deviations
*2026 stock* Swiss artist Zimoun had the honor and joy to spend time with a unique instrument, the Wind Dynamic Organ (Prototype III), located in Bern, Switzerland. He was given access to explore and record over the past few years. The result is two albums of material: a solo work of more pure and unmaniuplated sound titled Wind Dynamic Organ, One & Two (12k2061) and this, Wind Dynamic Organ, Deviations, on which he collaborates with Taylor Deupree. On this latter work they use the organ’s tones…
Lunng
On Lunng, Sam Slater weaponizes his own contradictions, crashing drone metal, brass bands, industrial folk opera and black‑metal flashbacks into a volatile, hyper‑emotional surge of sound that feels both deeply personal and magnificently unstable.
Who's Gonna Buy?
Who’s Gonna Buy? by The Lemon Dips is a shadow‑streaked 1969 relic of UK library psych, where fuzz garage, freakbeat hooks and eerie cues for film and TV collide into a strangely compelling, collector‑beloved ghost of the De Wolfe catalog.
Guitar, Solo
On Guitar, Solo, Michael Scott Dawson distills his tender ambient language to its essence: frayed guitar melodies, soft tape ghosts and pastoral field recordings breathing in unison on a Japan‑toured sister album to Music For Listening.
