Dust At Night
*200 copies limited edition CD in 6-panel digisleeve* Fabio Orsi is that imaginative weaver of atmospheres for great horizons that each time takes the mind and intellect far away. The new "Dust at Night", a 3-stage journey into the aural interspaces of the most immersive and alienating mantric-minimalist diction, is no exception. It is impossible to homologate the Italian composer's musical figure except perhaps to connect it by emotional induction to the astral radiations of Brian Eno in his am…

Tractatus Lyra-Organismus
*300 copies limited edition* Film and media composer Lyonel Bauchet is best known in the electronic music world for his mastery of the Buchla modular synthesiser. Indeed this is the instrument that was in the foreground for his previous two DiN releases, The Secret Society (DiNDDL11) and The Diver (DiN68). However for his third album on the DiN imprint he has eschewed this familiar territory and instead focused on a collection of analogue gear from Soma Laboratory. Their most famous instrument, …

Multizonal Mindscramble
Tip! *300 copies limited edition* Stephen James Buckley aka Polypores returns for his second full album on the DiN imprint following on from his 2022 debut “Hyperincandescent” (DiN71).
Though we’ve come to know a wide range of sounds from Polypores, it’s here on “Multizonal Mindscramble” that we get plunged into the outer reaches of the inner psyche. Flickering insectoid transmissions are laid atop slowly shifting walls of drifting oscillators, barely discernible chirps and static-encrusted filt…

2015-2020
Under the production moniker of Material Things, 12th Isle co-founder Stewart Brown unveils a part debut album part compendium of musical collaborations spanning from 2015-2020. Some recordings began as long, one-take improvisations (How's Life, Peckham) spliced together and revisited years later. Others were based upon chance opportunities to record with musicians operating a long way from the parameters of 12th Isle. Cult private-press loner folk guitarist Bob Theil, whose 1982 album So Far co…
Anche Dopo La Morte
The HDK subseries dedicated to "I Racconti di Dracula", the pulp horror paperbacks much loved in Italy in the 60s and 70s, is back.
Good Night
Ian Elms’s cult isolationist synth masterpiece Good Night returns via Dark Entries. Originally released in 1982, Good Night blends Berlin school minimalism and BBC Radiophonic weirdness with the aesthetics of then-nascent DIY punk electronics throughout its fifteen short tracks.
According to Elms, these pieces were composed in two broad but interrelated modes: pieces with voice and synthesizer, which are obliquely narrative, and instrumental synthesizer pieces that aspire to capture fleeting emo…
Celestial Runner
Born when the blood of Medusa outpouring,Showed where the weapon of Perseus had riven,Steed of Bellerophon, heavenward soaring,Carried on wings by the gods’ favor given,When thy bold rider, -the dragon defeated,-Claimed as hi meed with immortals to dwell,Proudly thou spurnedst him; baffled, unseated,Dashed again earthwards he impotent fell.Thee for our emblem we choose to remind us.Each to aspire to a loftier height,Leaving the base and ignoble behind us- Al that may clog us or fetter our flight…

Ash Ra Tempel's Gottsching (Farfisa, ARP, Gibson, tape echoes with Revox A 77) and Tangerine Dream/Agitation Free associate Hoenig (Yamaha, EMS, Moog, Oberheim) layering the zones for one continuous 48 minute flow of cosmic sequencing.
Arcoiris
*200 copies limited wedition. In process of stocking* "Backwards is really pleased to present the new Fabio Orsi release. This time Fabio offered a monumental work: eight long tracks contained in a huge box set with four compact discs. Musically it stands on the new course of the artist: together with the classic ambient and drone atmospheres that we know well, the work has more dynamic parts with rhythms and pulsations, and more melodic parts. A perfect meeting between ambient music and berlin-…
The Land Where Nothing Is As It Seems
You are in an unknown land. It looks similar to the one you've lived in so far, but everything is weird, out of place, subtly disturbing. How did you get here? You don't remember. You suspect it is a dream, but if it is, your sleep is really heavy, so much so that you cannot wake up. You just have to set out and find the road that leads out of this nightmare. Welcome to the land where nothing is as it seems.
The musical team behind the first episode of Dunjon Magik is back to transport you to a …
