MEG/CDG
2015 release ** "Over the years, genevan duo Sinner DC has built a solid yet discreet reputation on the international electronic music scene.

Defragment
2010 release ** "Andrew Hargreaves, one half of The Boats, largely sails solo on Defragment where his melodious piano playing and electronic programming are augmented in a small number of cases by the contrasting presence of Danny Norbury's cello. A sense of dub-like spaciousness permeates the mix, and there occurs an occasional dubby bass line too. But lest anyone get the wrong impression, Defragment is most assuredly not a dub album but rather a forty-minute collection of hazy piano-based sett…
Aix Em Klemm
2025 stock As Adam Wiltzie told Sadness Is In The Sky fanzine, his collaboration with Donne began when “we all met during a Texas swing of a Labradford tour that Stars Of The Lid opened for back in 1996. They stayed at my house for a few days and we became close.” A year later Wiltzie was asked to join Labradford for their Mi Media Naranja European tour of 1997 as the sound technician. This tour also included Bruce Gilbert of the legendary band Wire who was the opening act and joined them in the…
Sound Mind Sound Body
Sound Mind Sound Body was inspired in part by the working principles of Fripp & Eno, extrapolated by Rafael Toral via a unique signal path leading out of his guitar. He paid notice to the massive impact of discreet gestures, creating slow-moving tones and spacious orchestral resonances, drifting and droning with glacial majesty, hardly recognizable as guitar much of the time. The first pieces were recorded in 1987; in 1994, a collection was released on Portugal's AnAnAnA, producing an hour’s wor…
Wave Field
Digital album is the 2025 Edition, available on CD. Wave Field, released in 1995, was a departure from the first album into new composition methods involving the dirty textures of rock guitar, sounding in the open ears of many listeners (like Jim O'Rourke, who issued the disc in the US on dexter's cigar) as a synthesis of disparate elements — a nexus where Alvin Lucier, Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine and Eno blend together. Here, the clangorous potential of the guitar was emphasized, giving a …
Mega Mercy
*300 copies limited edition* Manchester’s sferic label return with a debut from ungoogleable Greco-Canadian anomaly Anastasia Patellis, aka Any, featuring additional instrumentation and co-production from Klein/Lolina cohort LA Timpa. It's a set of "squat pop" experiments that thread nocturnal soundscaping and pop hooks through hallucinated outlines written on harp and broken synth.
Greco-Canadian artist Any was bedding down in a Cretan squat when the album's title, μέγα ελεός in Greek, boomed …
Nuit Blanche
*100 copies limited edition* In da Woods is the sonic project of Paris and Berlin-based composer and sound designer Antoine Eole, formerly of the electro-rock band Bad Pilot. Known for his work across TV series, documentaries, theater productions, and major ad campaigns (MTV, Disney, Hermès), Antoine blends cinematic soundscapes with the raw edge of experimental and future garage music. With Nuit Blanche, Antoine explores atmospheric and bass-driven compositions, featuring the ethereal vocals of…
Meidän täytyy valvoa jottemme nukkuisi, sillä maailma on liukas
Tip! Meidän täytyy valvoa jottemme nukkuisi, sillä maailma on liukas is Pietu Arvola’s first album under his own name. The album was created during a year of loss and a remarkably grey time when most of the formerly distinctive seasons coalesced into a seemingly endless rainy period.
Field recordings captured in the last natural forests of southern Finland are interwoven with the swirls of microtonal bells and disorienting clatters. Acoustic and synthetic sounds are detached from their sources, …

As she has stated, “This is my dedication to the musicians and music lovers everywhere. What …

All Natures Most Mundane Materials
A Colourful Storm proudly presents remastered first-time vinyl and digital editions of Lone Capture Library’s modern-day DIY environmental masterpiece, All Natures Most Mundane Materials. “Environmental”, you say? Well, this certainly wasn’t recorded for dinner party ambience nor was it commissioned by Harrods. But it does document a haphazard wander through the English countryside, feeling the air and the earth, detaching oneself from confinement while attempting to make sense of it all. Its pr…
Degrees of Freedom
Future music doesn’t come from nothing. It’s out there in latent space. This new Berlin-based imprint is devoted to the natural world in her oldest and wisest form. Not green spaces, or living things, but underneath it all: potential.
