Millesuoni
In Millesuoni, Deleuze Guattari e la musica elettronica (2008), Emanuele Quinz distills some of the key ideas on the nature of sound formulated by Deleuze and Guattari over the course of their work. Central among them is the dynamic of territorialization and deterritorialization—a strategy of appropriation and subsequent release, activated in the alternation between refrain and music.
A child humming alone to ward off the fear of the dark is engaging in a process of territorialization, marking a…
Automation Studies Volume 1
This triple disc release documents Stefan Goldmann's earliest electroacoustic works. These clear-cut algorithmic compositions, mostly created between 1999 and 2001, were built entirely with the TC Fireworx processor's internal synthesizer and effects. Generated and recorded anew for this release with the original programs, a central component of Stefan Goldmann's sound aesthetic is revisited and becomes available in pure form for the first time. His proprietary Fireworx algorithms feature pr…
Muto Infinitas
2026 Repress. In Muto Infinitas, Catherine Lamb extends her distinctive approach to microtonality and just intonation, crafting a forty-minute dialogue for quartertone bass flute and double bass performed by Rebecca Lane and Jon Heilbron. The recording, realized without electronic alteration, invites deep listening, unspooling at an unhurried pace in a luminous acoustic field. Lamb’s music here is uncompromising in its patience: the two musicians linger in the borderlands of pitch and timbre, ca…
Follie del Divino Spirito Santo
Huge Tip! Originally issued in 1978 by Cetra, Follie Del Divino Spirito Santo emerges from a singular moment in Antonio Infantino's artistic practice - a moment when his early immersion in international Beat circles and avant-garde gestural music had crystallized into something entirely his own: a ritualistic and shamanic engagement with the musical traditions of Southern Italy.
From 1964 onward, Infantino had moved through collaborative circles with Vittorio Gelmetti, Sylvano Bussotti, Pietro G…
Music for the Process of Dying
On Music for the Process of Dying, Homo dissolves language into a porous, five-part soundscape where breath, organ, flute, electronics and the outside world seep into one another, sketching a wordless vigil for the psyche as it approaches the threshold.
Interwoven
From the visionary collaboration of Japanese New Age master Ken-ichiro Isoda and electronic music magician aus (Yasuhiko Fukuzono). Minimalism distilled, ambient environmental music that soothes the mind and kindles the spirit. Drawing on Isoda’s deep legacy (notably his legendary work on Oscilation Circuit – Série Réflexion 1 from mythical label Sound Process) and fused with aus’ spellbinding melodies, Interwoven is ethereal healing sound: lingering piano, soft cinematic synths, field recording…
Frank Gratkowski's In Cahoots Feat. Ingrid Laubrock
After playing complete improvised music with no constraints from 2016 on and releasing their first Album “Torbid Dayligtht” the quartet “Gratkowski / Zoubek / Landfermann / Mahnig” got renamed in 2023 to “In Cahoots” and now performs compositions by Frank Gratkowski, still with plenty of space for creative improvisation. In Cahoots also extends to a Quintet featuring Ingrid Laubrock on Tenor and Soprano Saxophones. The new Quintet version had its debut in Darmstadt 2023.
“Beneath the subatomic…
Rex
*350 copies limited edition* Rex is a solo cello record written and recorded while I’ve been living in the former home of Rex Brasher, a self-taught painter who created over 1,200 watercolors of North American birds. Composed for acoustic and electric cello, the record reflects the solitude and intensity that shaped both Brasher’s vision and my own process. Rex is not a portrait, but an echo—of a person, a place, and a way of seeing the world. Thank you to Matthew, Munawar, Cynthia & the RBA for…
PRN2_M15t
NYZ (David Burraston) presents this collection of generative music pieces carefully extracted from a PreenFM2 gifted to him by Aphex Twin. PRN2_M15t is being released at the same time as an LP titledStria from Dr. John Chowning who invented the original FM synthesis algorithms which were sold to Yamaha and used in the creation of the DX series of keyboards. An interview with Chowning, conducted by David Burraston, will be published at the same time.
David Burraston is an award winning artist/sci…
Oda
Vic Bang's "Oda" arrives quietly - it was waiting for the right moment. The eight tracks are shaped by listening, by circling around sound instead of chasing it... you can definitely hear patience in the pacing, a willingness to let ideas linger, to let all the small motifs breathe.
The album moves with a softer and more deliberate rhythm than much of Vic's earlier work, as the sound world here feels concentrated and cohesive, built from a limited set of elements that gradually reveal themselves…
Tsuki?
Kin Gajo is a Brussels based electro-acoustic jazz trio drawing inspiration on the one hand from J Dilla and Flying Lotus, and on the other from the sound of British jazz artists such as The Comet Is Coming, Yusef Dayes, and Alfa Mist. With their atypical instrumentation-accordion, saxophone, and drums-the trio has developed a sound entirely of their own, with the accordion often resembling a heavy analog synthesizer.
DJ and producer Lefto featured Kin Gajo on his compilation Lefto Presents Jazz…
Episodes
Sun Electric - the legendary Berlin duo of Tom Thiel and Max Loderbauer - returns with Episodes, an enticing new album. While the pair has been active and creating over the years (remember their track 'Every Now And Then' on the 10 Years De:tuned compilation in 2019), Episodes marks their first album of original material in nearly 20 years. Now, with a renewed way of working together, they present fresh and captivating music on the Belgian De:tuned label, built from recordings made with the vint…
Tone Keepers
How good does it feel to pull back from time to time? To really shed excess, more-ness, and follow a single path with intention? The exploration of one thing can illuminate corners of the world overlooked by minds pushed in increasingly omnidirectional cycles of want. Tone Keepers is a collection of four compositions by flutist, composer, and sound artist Rachel Beetz that follow a straight line into unexpected territory. Each piece revolves around a simple but inventive technique for generating…
Ready For Freddie
** Special Time-Limited Offer ** The Indianapolis-born trumpeter Freddie Hubbard introduced his prodigious talent on Blue Note Records with a run of remarkable albums recorded thru the early 1960s. At first rooted firmly in hard bop, Hubbard began to broaden his approach on his masterwork Ready for Freddie, recorded in August 1961. “The way in which I’m most interested in going is Coltrane-like,” Hubbard told liner note writer Nat Hentoff. Hubbard had recorded with Coltrane earlier in the year o…
Leviathan Whispers
On Leviathan Whispers, Tim Hill shapes saxophones, tape loops and treated field sound into slow-burning rites of longing and delirium, a spectral song-cycle where folk memory, Blakean vision and drone minimalism coil around each other in restless, darkly luminous orbit.
Hungry Vortex
With Hungry Vortex, Polypores pushes his kosmische synth language into a delirious hybrid of polyrhythmic trance, cosmic jazz-prog and gently lysergic minimalism, four side‑long excursions that feel at once meticulously engineered and wildly feral. A hypnotic, deeply emotional capstone to a ridiculously fertile phase.
Ritual Fever
There are moments of silent depth in which the winter of the scalpel of meaning and the spring of the sound-born, unleashed body look upon the world fully present. When the notes at last are heard, the ordered world is their indistinguishable score. The ritual of process is that which carries. The process of ritual is that which brings moments both transitory and immortal, apprehended by musician, seer, clairvoyant, herald; the welling tones that emanate from the crystal salt of shattered pri…
Superdank
Lo Five is as proud as he is anxious to present SUPERDANK, a CD album packed to the green gills with heavy dubs for sleepy schlubs. SUPERDANK is ostensibly presented as a collection of hardware stoner jams, structured in the form of an hour long edible-induced psycho-narrative, taking the listener on an aural voyage - kicking off at pleasant buzztown, calling past existential paranoiaville, then landing back in the relative safety of sofaborough in time for tea and crumpets. But what is SUPERDAN…
Orchestral Works
2026 stock Bára Gísladóttir (b. 1989) considers sounds, instruments and ensembles as living organisms. In VAPE, Hringla and COR, the Icelandic composer and double bassist engages with the largest musical organism of all: the symphony orchestra. Through these works, we follow Gísladóttir’s fascination with language and coincidence, for example. Here is an uncompromising interrogation of the body, in its excesses and ailments. And here, most of all, is life, vaporous and between states, neith…
Ultimatum And Incitement
"The curtains are drawn back, the sheets are pulled up over your face, the tape is fizzing out - you hear a familiar voice, a beeping, a chirping, a long hallway voice of lights - damn, feels like a breeze over marble headstones and you recognize what felt so familiar… the bark of the birch tree looks exactly like your bedroom back home. black and white and falling apart. mlehst mastery of soul-fuckery with surrealist outcomes! the difficulty… no …. the ease."
“Ultimatum And Incitement” is a c…
