Perila returns with a contemplative spiritual successor to her album »7.37/2.11«, which was also released on Vaagner’s sister label A Sunken Mall back in 2022. Featuring a collection of 8 pieces produced between 2021 and 2023, the album carries a serene vulnerability that underpins each work, drawing the listener in while gently grounding them amidst a drifting, ephemeral motion of echoing voices, droning guitars and sonorous soundscapes. Like a whispered conversation in the quiet moments of the…
After almost two years of work, we're glad to invite you to a new journey through the fog of time and enjoy the upcoming reissue of the great Ambient/Folk record from 1984.

At the beginning of this journey, I had no clear idea of what I was getting into. What started as a simple poem, with embedded audio links referencing a selection of recordings I had made over the past few years and published on Metalabel and my website, eventually evolved into a video project designed as a proposal for an installation. Ultimately, it culminated in this music album.
I am incredibly grateful for the amazing voice recordings that friends and family from all over the world sent me,…

Mostly known for his intense drone performances and as bass/guitarplayer for the ultrasonic noise trio MIR, Papiro seems to slip into a different persona when left unattended with a bunch of old Synthesizers and the privilege of overdub. The nine tracks show Papiro’s affinity for melodies and complex arrangements and will please followers of early seventies electronica like Walter Carlos (A Clockwork Orange), Cluster or Bruce Haack. The LP comes in a silkscreened glow-in-the-dark cover.

OEK is a collection of six pieces. The name is a reference to the Tuvan word for yurt, or quite simply to the idea of home. The pieces are constructed using very simple material -- scales built from tetrachords and suspensions, that blend together the intervals of the chromatic field. This abstract material is tempered, in turn, by the sounds of the instruments.Adam McCartney born in Limerick, 1987. Currently lives in Vienna. Studied composition and music theory with K. Lang, J. Godfrey, B. Lang…
Huge Tip! **200 copies** Eprc is a project by Roberto Crippa and Elisabetta Porcinai that exists between Berlin, Milan and London - a collaboration rooted in improvisation that has gradually distanced itself from the artists' respective practices, grounded in sound art, performance, visual art, and poetry, and evolved into a language and narrative of its own. In their work, the body is the starting point from which to measure and explore the world. Sensory perceptions and inner landscapes are di…

Australia-based musician Mark Gomes presents the debut full length under his own name for Soda Gong. “Alphane Moods” finds Gomes employing strategies that will be familiar to listeners of his work as Blue Chemise– elegiac, loop-based modes of composition and a predilection for concise etude forms– that manifest here with a strikingly different scope and intent, shifting from expressive abstraction into more conceptual terrain. Over the course of fourteen widescreen tracks, he navigates the gap b…
