Mighty Truth
Old friends Julian Bates and Alex Gray -- working together as Mighty Truth for the first time since 1995's From The City To The Sea -- filled a car with old analogue synths, kids' noise toys, and collected field recordings, took a road trip down to hole up in an old water mill in southwest England's bird-twittery, bee-loud Quantock hills. Things got cinematic: unequal measures of early Weather Report, Wim Wenders, and Serge Gainsbourg kept them wonderfully lost in their imagined world. Back in L…
Counting To Ten Then Back Again
"I remember when at school on the last day of term, all the class would bring games in to play, but it always seemed that no one really knew the rules or could fathom out how to play some of them. However, a lot of the games had interesting artwork and fantastic layouts with all sorts of cards and paraphernalia, which I really enjoyed. Around the same time I received a magic set for Christmas. The packaging, images, type, colours on the box and instructions were wonderful. I would entertain memb…
A Small Life and Unnoticed Movements
"A Small Life and Unnoticed Movements" was born from a live performance at Germi in Milan, later transformed in the studio through Fender Rhodes and subtle ambient processing. The six pieces are sonic micro-landscapes built around minimal gestures — a leaf’s trace, a small current, a dim light, an almost invisible presence. The music doesn’t describe nature; it follows its processes. It changes slowly, transforms without noise, and remains in a state of attentive listening.
The project is accomp…
Flowers
'Flowers', the new EP from Elizabeth Davis, finds itself at the cross-section of many factors. In part, it’s the result of Davis’ obsession with a seminal folk song. But it also coincides with her rediscovery of the voice and language as an instrument. It was recorded during an autumn residency at Sternhagen Gut, the cultural refuge run by Gudrun Gut and Thomas Fehlmann, located deep in the Uckermark countryside halfway between Berlin and the Baltic coast. The six tracks on 'Flowers' all take Pe…
Adjustable Phase
Adjustable Face, the newly formed duo of Milan-based musicians Marco Paltrinieri (Canti Magnetici, Granny Records) and Matteo Pennesi (Babau, Artetetra, {scope}), explores the intersection of glitch, ambient, and computer music through different composition and production strategies.
Their debut album "Adjustable Phase", soon-to-be-released via Kohlhaas, was built through a process of editing, reassembling, and refining extended improvisation sessions recorded throughout 2024. Primarily based on…
Perennials
Perennials is the latest full-length from Toronto-based anthéne (aka Brad Deschamps), who builds transportive, beautifully detailed sonic worlds using only a guitar, sampler, and modest cache of pedals. Here, his refined treatments, manipulations, and experimentations blend seamlessly with an innate sense of harmonic layering to create an impression of seasonal cycles and their relationship to the human experience at scale. “winter chords” opens with slow serenity and a faint suggestion of hiber…
Lustres
Our approach to making records has always involved an exchange of individually created sounds, which are joined together through live improvisation, studio recording, and the use of diagrammatic visual scores. Over the last several years, we have been interested in expanding very small fragments of these discreet pieces of audio into long-form compositions. This process has resulted in a new approach to how we build tracks from the ground up. In this particular workflow, one of us is largely resp…

These Rays of Sun which illuminated the Darkness of my Body and my Mind left Room for subjective Interpretations on the Exile that is Life
After months of careful excavation and meticulous restoration, dj echotree finds his way to ZitStill with a singular artefact. Delving into lost remnants of the spirit world, a gapless collage of found footage, spoken word and otherworldly jazz slowly emerged. A mute yet eloquent testimony, held together by instinct and the steady pulse of the MPC. Much remains to be uncovered about this entity and its teachings, rooted in beliefs that left no written trace. What is known is its devotion to the …
Post Coma
With their self-titled release on Titrate Records, Post Coma presents two twenty-minute passages shaped by a winter improvisation. What surfaces is a sense of detachment — at times even dissociation — treating the improvisation as a shared descent into the inner psyche. Listening as much to each other as to the remnants of their own decisions, the music emerges as a kind of cognitive experiment — a document of mutual attunement and the debris that gathers in its wake. The result lies suspended b…

Astral Disaster
At the turn of the millenium the original „Astral Disaster“ subcription-only vinyl release was somewhat of an Unholy Grail for Coil collectors!
Virtually unobtainable in its original fiercely limited format of only 99 copies, it is the only album apart from the original „Musick to play in the Dark“ record to combine the genius of Balance and Sleazy with both Drew McDowall and Thighpaulsandra's talents. Like „Musick“ it is an essentially tidal/lunar record with literal washes of sound enveloping …

Guest on flute - Valera Hip.

News From The Garden House
Sascha returns with his third album - lighter, brighter, and more intimate than ever: After the acclaimed Seeds on Talks and Zart, German ambient composer Sascha opens a new chapter with News From The Garden House - a collection of musical sketches as airy and luminous as a summer morning. This is a continuation of the sound we've come to love from Sascha, yet here the emotional detailing feels sharper, the storytelling more present. Each composition is shorter, more eventful, and each one invit…
Zart
The second album by the German ambient composer Sascha on The Fact of Being. A year after his high reclaimed "Seeds on Talks" that has been recorded for 7 years, Sascha returns much faster. A huge evolution in sound but the same Sascha's style. The minimalistic shine of clear analog sound, the slow and transparent like an early morning. As being photographer, Sascha's music is like pictures - a static basis is always in the same place, but all moving and details are open deep inside the composit…
