Destroy & Dream
*2025 stock* Electronic trio Evade have been honing their repertoire of sounds crafted within the urban pastoral landscapes of former Portugese colony, Macau. In their latest album 'Destroy & Dream,' Evade takes on the view of a distant observer, questioning life, the earth, the universe and the values of its living creatures, yet with the consolation of dreams, seclusion and shelter. The trio builds a haunting tension through sustained silences and fractured electronic arrangements crafted by F…
i hold a wish for you
*2025 stock* 'i hold a wish for you' is Aspidistrafly’s first full-length album. A delicate immersion into quiet, reflective spaces, it is inspired by the solitary beauty of Banana Yoshimoto’s novella 'Moonlight Shadow'. Just as Yoshimoto’s prose captures fleeting moments of grief and longing, Aspidistrafly’s album weaves an ethereal tapestry of sound and silence, embracing themes of transience, memory, and the gentle passage of time. Each of the nine tracks melds acoustic instrumentation, whisp…
A Little Fable
*2025 stock* Ahead of the release of Aspidistrafly’s long-awaited new album, their 2011 fan-favourite second album 'A Little Fable' will be reissued on vinyl for the first time. “With a hushed wispy voice in the spirit of Vashti Bunyan, Aspidistrafly have more in common with ambient composers like Max Richter — and, along the way, have found their own leaf-covered path.” wrote NPR Music upon its original release. Now marking the 10th year anniversary of the album, 'A Little Fable' is still being…
Inland See
Hurtling through the perpetual into this moment is the now and future Bitchin Bajas. An effulgent mass located somewhere beyond land or water, Bitchin Bajas' Inland See is flowing toward you, through the hi-fi, arriving with precision extractions of electroacoustic synthesis, revolving in a post-ambient craft that lifts the listener up powerfully, like you’re floating – in saltwater, or helium – effervescent, effortless, elemental.
Nagual
The album Nagual by Matt Choboter is a sonic ritual that dissolves the boundaries between composition and improvisation, tradition and innovation. Drawing on just intonation, Balinese tuning systems, and South Indian rhythmic theory, Choboter and his ensemble craft a vivid, shape-shifting musical world—at once ancient and otherworldly. Nagual resists the comforts of familiar forms, embracing ambiguity, sensory multiplicity, and intuitive collective listening. This music does not follow a path—it…

Feelings
Feelings marks Jake Henry’s long-awaited return as a leader, more than a decade after his debut with Sweet Talk Glitterbomb. This album is a deeply personal exploration of the intricate harmonic language and angular counterpoint Henry developed during his formative years as a guitarist. Drawing on the frenetic energy of math rock, raw intensity of metal, and chaotic textures of noise, Henry recontextualizes common song form into a bold, genre-defying soundscape.
The quartet—featuring Brian Krock…

Macrodose
*2025 stock* "Macrodose" marks Bill Harris's third solo record, following "Blinking Glue" (2022) and "Onomat" (2021). Harris's unique approach to solo drumming combines acoustic and electronic elements, utilizing feedback and timbral manipulation to create a distinctive auditory experience. Where Blinking Glue was a single-take, live performance which represented a snapshot of his live solo set, Macrodose returns to a similar format of Onomat, encapsulating shorter sonic spaces in a number of di…
Kuovia Tuijottavat Miehet
This new collaboration between Commando 15 and Nuori Veri shows how fruitful working together can be at its best. Commando 15’s trademark high-pitched feedback meets Nuori Veri’s more earthy and musical textures with great success. While the sounds of the two projects differ, melding these distinct spectrums of industrial noise creates something greater than the sum of its parts. Fans of both projects will find much to enjoy in this masterpiece called Kuovia tuijottavat miehet.
Living in the present
Living in the present is an album built around the work of American minimalist poet, Robert Lax (1915-2000) who is widely praised for his artistic concept of reduction, in which a pause becomes as important as the things said. The album brings together the sound of Robert Lax reading his poetry, narrative field recordings by Nicolas Humbert and subtle yet imaginative timbres by Carina Khorkhordina (trumpet) and Miki Yui (electronics) who is also behind the final mixing of the album.
Living in th…
Revenge of the Speaker People
*300 copies limited edition* In 1978, at the University of London, the Physicist David T. Kemp made an unusual discovery. Kemp noticed that faint sounds, known as Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs), revealed the existence of the cochlear amplifier, a mechanism responsible for sound sensitivity and frequency resolution. This discovery proved that the ear is an active rather than passive organ. Following this discovery the experimental music world embraced these findings by incorporating them into sound…
Frammenti
*150 copies limited edition* The six Fragments of this album are stages of a personal journey, stories, events or moments that marked us and stay inside us like shards, foreign objects we learned to embrace. Mirco Salvadori wrote the stories. Barbara De Dominicis sings, declaims and whispers words and excerpts of the text.
Federico Mosconi composed the music playing guitars, devices, live electronics and field recordings. 'My music would have been incomplete without Barbara and Mirco, I'd like t…
The Ninth Circle Beyond the Sun
*300 copies limited edition* The latest album from Michael Cashmore (formerly of Current 93 plus known for his work as Nature and Organisation) collects ten pieces which, as with the previous album, 'Until the End of Vibration', released by Lumberton Trading Company, draw from that magical place where crepuscular and moody soundtrack work converges with the kind of synth lines Tangerine Dream made a name for themselves with. Along the way, there are piano-led melodic swells, a couple of surprisi…
Parallel Disalignment
Tip! *300 copies limited edition* "Since Fallen Sun’s debut CD, 'Beyond the Flat Earth', which appeared on Fourth Dimension Records in 2024, there have been rare live appearances and collaborative releases by this solo project of Malaysian electronic artist, Y’ng-Yin Siew. She has also released a few albums under the name, Reverse Image, which is a comparatively sedate project given to more atmospheric sounds yet no less metamorphic or unsettled because of that. Fallen Sun, as the name itself al…
8 Automated Works
EM Records is proud to present 8 Automated Works, the first full release by Componium Ensemble, an "indeterminate chamber music" ensemble helmed by Spencer Doran of Visible Cloaks. The project is inspired by the long history of automated musical instruments, beginning with the ancient Greek Archimedes and further developed by the Banū Mūsā brothers in 9th century Baghdad, who "first perfected the concept of a programmable, automated musician: a mechanically controlled flute which used hydraulic …
Sasurai : access memory of Daido Moriyama
A groundbreaking collaboration between two Japanese cultural giants: Seiichi Yamamoto — a pioneering figure in Japan's avant-pop scene and former member of Boredoms, Omoide Hatoba etc — and legendary photographer Daido Moriyama.
Inspired by Moriyama’s iconic photographic style, Yamamoto has composed a sonic tribute — a soundtrack, or perhaps a love letter — to Moriyama’s raw, evocative imagery. The result is an unparalleled work of art: progressive, genre-defying, and emotionally expansive. From…
Travelling At The Speed Of Time
*300 coipes limited edition* Only a clarinet sings – minimal, quivering, wavering. Breathing mad notes in the cracks between notes, weaving a dazed, fuzzy kind of magic. The latest recordings by Museum of No Art are tripping – floating in suspense, somewhere out in the irrational corners of the world inhabited by the haunted elegance of Ben Bertrand or Bernhard Herrmann. But still, entirely her own – a quiet revolt of classical clichés in search of a new dawn for lunatic woodwinds. She sings thr…
Blood Brothers
Reissue with alternate layout of this bonus tape previously only available in the creationist special edition.
Bathtub brothers (Prurient and Alberich) round two. Heavy electronics vs. doom electronics for double barrelled white sick sheets and prison blue uniforms. Wear the masks - close your eyes - innocence rejoined.
