In Offret
2009 release ** ""In Offret", Swedish title for "The Victim", probably inspired by the 1986 film of the same name by Andrei Tarkovski, is a CD of ambient electronics, dark, minimal, without beats, immersed in an atmosphere of fear, on which reciting voices emerge, sampled or not. Echran, a duo from Milan, do not hide their cultured inspiration: not exactly popular films (Antonina Woicik's "Slepa Paga" for "Sister Vk"), books of a certain depth (Amelie Nothomb's "Métaphysique des tubes" for "Anod…
After The World
2005 release ** Limited edition of 223 copies in handmade foil-covered sleeve.
Process Of Elimination
Process of Elimination explores sickness as a teacher for anti-capitalist modes of being; a rewilding of the self. The product of an attempt to be indestructible, this sickness has an unknown diagnosis. The only route to determine the indeterminable is via a process of elimination. Eliminate the noise so it may quieten and make space for listening to what whispers underneath, allowing a return to the present moment. Slowness and queerness as technologies, questions as answers and mysticism as a …
Unyt
2016 release ** "With its unique cinematic downtempo aesthetics, Unyt leads us into a perpetually expanding travel through soundscapes while playing with our centers of attention, loss of focus and a certain sense of dispersion. The album redefines Scann-Tec’s approach to musical composition and introduces multi-form field recordings vaporised in an array of analog and digital tools to create surreal and behind the veil atmospheres ; wide etheral pads floating high above his distinctive, dynami…
Reverso
2011 release ** "Five decades on, Our Roedelius finally releases a film soundtrack. Well worth the wait. As a godfather of electronica, Roedelius could have easily made a parallel career as a film soundtrack auteur, only he's always lacked the killer instinct of a Vangelis or Edgar Froese to compromise his intuitive muse for mass audiences. Which made him something of a wild card for Frederick Baker's BBC TV documentary Imagine Imagine - about the countercultural forces that gestated John Lennon…
Approaches #1
“approaches #1” is a study based on electronically amplified objects. The first phase is the selection and microphoning of objects that are familiar in everyday life and in the context of music. The second phase is the alienation and merging. Live, the tracks run through effect pedals, creating a continuous drone. “approaches #1” is a shallow monster that is both demanding and highly immersive. - rsn
Morituri Te Salutant
2004 release ** "Mariae Nascenti is the solo-project of Angelo Visone, a native of Milan, Italy. Morituri Te Salutant is his first proper CD release, following a number of self-released CD-Rs.

The Journey Like Never Before
2008 release ** "The atmosphere ranges from ambient, meditation and transcendence to sound experiments and rhythmic madness. A clash of acoustic explorations by the Hati group with modern, rhythmic electronics by Lal (2nd Hand Beatnix, Wiedźmin). This is one of the most electronic projects ever realized by Hati, which – as a band that performs a lot – uses mainly acoustic instruments."
Legionowo
2005 release ** "Brasil and the Gallowbrothers Band is the new, second project by the collective after One Inch of Shadow - Dominic Savio, Mirt - musicians known for numerous productions released under the banners of various labels, including the Cat Sun they founded. The musicians have been creating together and solo since the mid-nineties.

Anti Matter Society
2002 release ** Limited edition of 555 hand-numbered copies. "In more than one case, Europe beyond the Iron Curtain has generated interesting groups, especially in the fields of industrial and esoteric music: just think of names like Laibach, Autopsia and ACTUS. Fellow countrymen of the latter, the Slovakian Simulacrum record their second work for our Amplexus, endowed with a distinctive character that, while remaining within the scope of a very dark ambient ritual, distinguishes them from the l…
Baby, It's Cold Inside
'The fun years', comprised of multi-instrumentalists Ben Recht and Isaac Sparks, have been making music together since the turn of the century, producing intriguing interrogations of ambient, drone, post-rock, and turntablism. Originally released in 2008 on the now-defunct Barge Recordings, 'baby it’s cold inside' is perhaps the high watermark of their discography. Equally concerned with microtonal nuance and harmonic intensity, it is both a product of its time and something well past it. The ch…
Drafts
2007 release ** Dawid Szczesny is a sound artist located in Wroclaw, Poland. His music is mainly based on samples of old vinyl records.
Pinche Madre
2008 release ** Limited to 100 copies. "Pinche Madre is the 2008 creation from Remoteband, released by Russian label Abgurd in a limited edition CDR. To say any more, or try to give further information would be futile. Mainly because there is not much to find, even by scouring the internet there’s no webpage, MySpace or Facebook. Hard to believe in this technological age, but Remoteband has appeared to go off the grid by not even being there in the first place.So what do we have? Well we have…

Wander
2009 release ** "In the Winter of 2000 Beequeen decided not to release drone music anymore. In order to facilitate their need to create music in the ambient field, Wander was formed. Wander uses organ/keyboard sounds as well as environmental recordings to create instrumental sound scapes. "
Voices Without A Sound
2001 release ** "All tracks on this album was recorded live during nightsessions. This album submerges a listener into the space of dream-like images and forms, makes him feel like somnambulist in the full-moon night in some haunted land. Using the treated voice samples intertwined with ambient and meditative structures, NA-DHA builds an unreal hall of sound mirrors reflecting different elements of this illusory world. 8 untitled tracks of wonderfull dream-magik-ambient."
Brutalism Live At St. Gertrud
Following on from our audio visual experiences in St. Gertrud’s church in cologne, this album contains eight excerpts from live sets, specially produced for the unique space of the building designed by Gottfried Böhm, in an attempt to capture its architecture and sound. Since 2015, our goal has been to establish a format at the interface between pop and club culture, as well as "academic" electronic music, in which media art, visuals, sound installations and dance performances play a central rol…
Sonic Journey Through New Life
2006 release ** "A stylistic close to Selected Ambient Works - Aphex Twin. Music inspired by the birth of a new life. A clear canon of minimal music and the electro-acoustic school of noise generation. However, all this is atmospheric and muffled, so characteristic for Spika. The atmosphere of the album is definitely calm and although there are motor fragments, the compositions transport the listener into a distant, forgotten world - so close to each of us."
Monolake
2005 release ** "The nearly seventy-minute live recording documents the ambient collaboration of Origami Galaktika with the Berlin project I:Wound and a lesser-known Norwegian, calling himself Inderst Elia. The basis of the sound skeleton is made up of psychoactive drones, which are then supplemented by a wide range of differently modulated rhythmic sequences and especially the most diverse field-recordings - human voices, the noise of city streets, sounds from nature, but also the growl of car …
