Upcoming releases
Because It Happens
„Not So Late / Because it Happens“ on CD and „Because it Happens“ on LP is the material recorded live on August 5th 2025 in London at legendary Cafe OTO. Three masters of improvisation: Mikołaj Trzaska on saxophone, John Edwards on double bass and Mark Sanders on drums. They don't use the term "improvisation," preferring instead to speak of "live composition" and the audience, who are an essential component of the concert ritual. The community created by the performers and the audience's attenti…
Ghost and More Ghosts
Kit darlings Love Is Yes (Dax Niesten and Sander van der Toorn) return with a particle scattering follow-up to their celebrated, self-titled debut. While the Dutch duo's serenely motorik guitar, levitational synths and airy vocals are still present, 'Ghost and More Ghosts' sees the pair take a sideways step into the nether realm - tugging gamelan metallophones, organs and vocoders with them through the fermented portal as they disintegrate completely. A melancholy magic trick occurs when these a…
Nagłe Przejaśnienia
The band Tuleje consists of Gosia Zagajewska, Ksawery Wójciński and Wojtek Kurek. Their original arrangement of folk music from eastern Greater Poland is filled with deep respect for the original material, and at the same time expresses their subjective view of tradition. A bold look, full of references to jazz, blues, early music and free improvisation.But Tuleje's third album marks a distinct shift towards urban rawness and a new sonic identity. The greatest change to the musical foundation is…
Shortwave Memories
*2026 repress* Iconic Norwegian producer and composer Biosphere follows up his evocative 'Angel's Flight' release with a new album set for release early in 2022. Shortwave Memories is an album inspired by the post-punk electronic music of the late 70's and early 80's, especially the productions of figures like Martin Hannett and Daniel Miller. "The last few Biosphere albums have all been made using samples and software, but Shortwave Memories is a return to vintage analog hardware from the late …
The Petrified Forest
Norwegian ambient maestro Geir Jenssen aka Biosphere maintains his fascination with natural landscapes in The Petrified Forest, in a sort of impressionistic illustration of Archie Mayo’s 1936 film of the same name. After imaginary trips taking us to Trømso, the Wolski forest on Poland, and more esoteric corners of his mind, this time his music inhabits a noirish world on the edge of the desert, populated by nervous and disillusioned characters who crop up in snatches of sampled dialogue across s…
The Hilvarenbeek Recordings
Biosphere is the main recording name of Geir Jenssen, a Norwegian musician who has released a notable catalogue of ambient electronic music. He is well known for his works on ambient techno and arctic themed pieces, his use of music loops, and peculiar samples from sci-fi sources. His 1997 album Substrata was voted by the users of the Hyperreal website in 2001 as the best all-time classic ambient album.
The Hilvarenbeek Recordings are based on field recordings from the Dutch farm Biologische boe…
The Neon Weeps Tonight
*300 copies limited edition* Following 'The Sympathy Portal' LP, released earlier this year, 'The Neon Weeps Tonight' was similarly recorded during lockdown and released as a very limited CDr in early 2022 before its being mooted for this slightly edited reissue. This time comprising six compositions, it begins proceedings with Edward in a typically reflective mood that sometimes feels barbed as much as steeped in a yearning for times lost as melodic yet sombre keys assume a haunted quality befo…
Columns
*300 copies limited edition* Catholics Against Architecture is the name Chris Connelly has given this project that here collects twelve songs crafted from sonic collages, spoken word, fractured melodies, vocals not far removed from those that David Bowie traded some of his best songs on, rivulets of subdued noise and seemingly random location recordings, tender guitar work, tape manipulation and all kinds of other sounds either in between or beyond. Together, these compositions sit outside conve…
The Hermit
*200 copies limited edition* Glacial Movements, an ambient and electronic music label founded in Rome in 2006 by Alessandro Tedeschi (Netherworld), celebrates its 20th anniversary with the release of “The Hermit,” a collection of restored archival recordings from the early 2000s. These recordings, originally stored on deteriorated CD-r and Minidisc formats, were recovered and restored to reveal early experimental sounds full of mystery and emotional depth. These earliest sound experiments emerge…
Night Falls. Music inspired by David Lynch’s Twin Peaks
*150 copies limited edition* This compilation continues a path that Unexplained Sounds Group has been developing over time, following the earlier CD project inspired by Eraserhead. While that release focused on the cinematic origins of David Lynch’s language, this new work turns its attention to Twin Peaks, the television series created by Lynch and Mark Frost that profoundly reshaped the relationship between narrative, sound and perception on the small screen. First broadcast in 1990, Twin Peak…
Sonic Boom, Spectrum & E.A.R. Vinyl - (Book + Flexi)
In Sonic Boom, Spectrum & E.A.R. Vinyl, Danny Passarella turns Pete Kember’s solo history into a 300‑page artifact: every record from “Angel” to A ? Of When, unreleased audio, new interviews and ephemera mapped into a definitive, tactile chronicle.
Metlasr
Metlasr is an album for microtonal idiophones and modular synthesizer by composer/producer Tyler Friedman for Radicant_Editions.
Big Rigs on the BQE
Prison’s third big one, Big Rigs on the BQE, finds our jammers of legend far away—miles from Downstate (2025) and Upstate (2023): driving further down the road, Prison’s guitar, bass and drums compel them to dream loud. An improvised rock and roll tapestry, multiple impulses, intersections and lifelines rended with gas ‘n guitar pedal on down to the metal. Reflecting real lives lived today, sprawled and recalled in undulating electroacoustic performance. On March 7th 2024, Prison vets Sarim Al-R…
Plot
*300 copies limited edition* Crossing borders between traditions, sonic territories, and instruments, musicians Tomáš Niesner and Aldana Duoraan created their first collaborative album Plot. The sound of khomus meets guitar melodies simplified into pentatonic scales, intertwining in a dialogue that remains playful while moving between meditative passages and bewitching, hypnotic moments. Solid yet ever-changing, these melodies explore a delicate relationship between the present interactions, the…
Mannequin
"After Aktor and Quietism last year, the Scotsman is in top form, churning out albums that are stunning in their intelligence and pop refinement. If Mannequin is so good, it's for three main reasons. The first is that Momus has returned from his experiments that saw him playing around with AI or composing K-pop songs. We welcome with delight his return to the basics of a pure and perfect pop characterised by a certain economy of means, a DIY ethos — a synth-pop hodgepodge that suits him perfectl…
In A Small Room, Decades Ago
“Hanging in the chill out rooms of the 1990’s rave scene inspired me to create my first ambient album, Atmospherics over 30 years ago. For this album I wanted to journey back and create a love letter to those magical times, and the energy that was felt in those small rooms decades ago.” - JB
Agon
*Includes 16 page booklet and 30 day free MUBI subscription.* Agon is the directorial debut of Giulio Bertelli. It follows a triptych of female athletes as they prepare and then compete in Ludoj 2024, a fictional Olympic Games, in their personal disciplines - judo, fencing, and rifle shooting. Informed by the historical figures of Cleopatra, Joan of Arc and Nadezhda Durova, these women are portrayed against the political, social, technological and physical contexts that dominate the highest leve…
Du Formol Orgonal
*300 copies limited edition* The powdered-nosed Escampette, a devil, steps out of the reserve he once assigned himself with the complicity of the warder. In his new recipe book he deciphers for us several ways of inhabiting the night, that refuge running beneath the day, and, by brushing it, draws the map of paths winding between woods and thickets where strange trumpets grow. It is in their coppery foliage that he cools the fire of his cheeks.
In constant molt, the devil knows when and how to t…
Nobody Knows this is Anywhere
*250 copies limited edition* As part of their 20th year celebrations Gnod grace us with the latest output from their ongoing R&D project. Operating as a stripped back two piece the raw energy and sonic power shines through across the two tracks that make up ‘Nobody Knows this is Anywhere’. ‘Catholic FM’ and ’Sunset 102’ are but a fraction extracted from a mammoth 2 day recording session at Gnod farm back in 2019. Recorded straight to cassette at the time and with minimal editing done at some poi…
SPRiNG!
London-based musician Luke Cowan returns with SPRiNG!, a release that trades the slow-blooming architectures of Six Places for something more immediate, loose-limbed and provisional. Conceived as the first in a planned seasonal cycle, it documents a moment of emergence: music produced quickly, instinctively, under a set of self-imposed constraints. SPRiNG! begins with Walworth Road, composed in a single sitting in February 2025, built from a tentative improvisation on a sanza acquired in a South…
