Hamas Arc
Originally released in 1993. The reissue contains remixed material from »Shekel Of Israeli Occupation«, which did never appear. Also on there are two remixes from tracks on »Vote Hezbollah«. From the original press release: »For over ten years this solitary voice from Manchester has created a unique sound drawn from a melange of Arabic and European instrumental music.

Olas Curativas
Lamina is the moniker of multi-disciplinary French artist Clarice Calvo-Pinsolle. In Basque mythology, the Lamina is half-human, half-animal; a nocturnal creature that lives in caves close to water sources and creeks. Taking influence from the natural world, works of hydrofeminism, and experiences with hypnotism, on ‘Olas Curativas’ Lamina sculpts a new ecosystem to explore.
"Blood, bile, intracellular fluid; a small ocean swallowed, a wild wetland in our gut; rivulets forsaken making their way…
Lume
*100 copies limited edition* Nitechord is an intercontinental ambient-tech duo that has so far issued only two remixes, but they emerge in full form on Lume, a début that extols the calm and mystery of night through mid-tempo pulses and shadowy whispers. Their initial cassette demo landed in Past Inside the Present's mailbox in 2022, devoid of credits or other biographical information, accompanied only by a brief quatrain:
“We hopethere is room enoughin your worldfor this work.”
Those original r…
Chiffons d'azur

Vaco
Atmospheres that evoke nocturnal wanderings without a precise destination, in search of sensations and unexpected events as if in a sort of psychic drift in which sounds, collected in random order in different places and times, fluctuate in compositions somewhere between soundscapes, ambient and electroacoustic music. The material on "Vaco" is deliberately fragmentary, a succession of incidental phenomena that the author projects outside specific space-time coordinates in a hypothetical and abst…
Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide
“Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide” is the third part of a work in progress whose first two chapters were already published in 2020, by taâlem on a 3" MiniCD and by St.An.Da. on CD. The origin of the project, however, dates back many years, when in 2011 Andrea Marutti was asked to compose the soundtrack for the multimedia work “Aquology - Oceano interiore” by Massimo Indelicati. Carlo Giordani's subsequent involvement in the project led to a first draft of the soundtrack that was used jus…
Xerrox Vol. 5
Alva Noto returns to his much awaited Xerrox project with Vol. 4, the fourth installment of the five-piece intended series based on the concept of digital replication of source material.
Forms of Paper
In a worthy tribute to the life and legacy of one of the great artists of our time, the always fantastic, Monterrey, Mexico, based imprint, Aurora Central, returns with a stunning, first ever vinyl pressing of Steve Roden's seminal 2001 full length “Forms of Paper”. A landmark in the history of Lowercase music - the idiom that Roden helped pioneer - unfurling like an alien, microscopic landscape, it's one of the true marvels of post-millennial sound practices that remains as effective and radica…
Liminal States
Peter Rehberg is known for his pioneering electronic work with computer software which over time evolved into a modular set up alongside running Mego and then Editions Mego labels.
Pop Ambient 2025
In recent years, the introductory texts for the Pop Ambient compilation series, which is released every year on Kompakt as the last release before the Christmas break, often began with the sentence "Every year again...". “Every year again”, a quiet, almost unnoticed maxim of self-evidentness. Because this is already the 25th issue to be published this year. 25 years in increasingly fast-moving times in the even faster-moving music business is an eternity that doesn't just feel like it. It is all…
Hardanger
*150 hand-numbered copies limited edition* Hardanger is a collaboration by Mariska Baars (aka Soccer Committee), Niki Jansen, and Rutger Zuydervelt (aka Machinefabriek). The title refers to the instrument played by Jansen, the Hardanger fiddle. It’s a fresh addition to the established musical chemistry from regular collaborators Baars and Zuydervelt. The music on Hardanger started with improvisations by Niki Jansen, guided by Mariska Baars, who responded with vocal and guitar recordings. Rutger …
Option Explore
Option Explore, Dylan Moon’s second full-length album, is a glassy-eyed survey of pop’s playing field both past and present, and a collection of clever, colorful songs filtered through frequencies, timbres, and dreams discovered and discarded while its maker shifts from one sub-genre to the next.
Option Explore signals a significant departure from Moon’s debut 2019 album Only the Blues, which at its heart is a folk record from the forlorn fringes of psychedelia: a little mysterious, but ultimate…

Filled with the sounds of nature and visions of the clouds and heavens above, chamomi…
A Life In Setting Suns
** 180g opaque blue/pink vinyl record. Edition of 200. ** That liminal moment, when the phosphorescence behind the window shade first disrupts your eyelids, is a difficult one to pinpoint. Sometimes the earliest thought in your mind is a long-tail partial memory of those last few moments of a thousand-yard dream, sometimes it’s an irrepressible descending sigh as you anticipate what’s to follow, whether with apprehension or ardor. Centuries have passed in your unconscious absence; every frequenc…
