Rapid Response
Three long-form compositions that peer through a glimmering aperature into diaphanous realms of textural experiences: “What are the pros and cons of being lost in a thought?”
Afterlife overdubs
*20 copies limited edition* This record wasn’t really planned. It all started when I(minereed) brought a cassette recorder and a single microphone to capture Tim Six’s live set at motto books Paris, just because it felt like a nice thing to do. Listening back later, I realised the tape had caught something special — the room, the imperfections, and a side of Tim’s music that felt more rhythmic than usual while still deeply meditative. What began as a simple mono recording slowly turned into some…
Isle Peaks
In the wake of the acclaimed Inland See, the on-growing analog ecosystem being animated for ten albums now by Bitchin Bajas boasts new high energy views. “Isle Peaks” speaks of directions in beats of time, weather and the heart to wherever coast they found themselves when they got it all laid out. Sourced from Inland See sessions, these cuts were subjected to further edits and tweaks, with electroacoustic textures of sampled kalimba, field recordings, autoharp and EWI to activate and transport d…
Música para Platanos
Música para Plátanos takes its name — and much of its inspiration — from the group’s recording studio, situated in the heart of a banana plantation on the humid north shore of Tenerife, Canary Islands. The ever-present sight of the green, sun-drenched fields surrounding their weekly sessions seeped directly into the music: improvised jams that are playful, layered, and deeply connected to place. This release gathers a distilled selection from those sessions — a kind of “greatest rotten hits” dis…
New Item
New Item is the debut album of Italonesian duo Arcibanda, composed of producers and musicians Roberto Chiurazzi and Kevin Silalahi (BAPAK, whoosah). With a unique attention to, and allure for, band-oriented approaches to digi-organic sound design and composition, the pair delivers nine tracks of pure, outbursting instrumental joy, traversing diverse constellations of sonic references and shifting across eras in ways that never feel tacky, as expert masters of their craft. Drawing inspiration fro…
Warm Waves
‘Warm Waves’ first appeared in 2020, ten years after Turn On The Sunlight’s debut self-titled album was first released in Japan. During that decade, Turn On The Sunlight’s Jesse Peterson and Mia Doi Todd welcomed their first child and co-founded a music venue in Los Angeles. When performance spaces were required to close at the start of the pandemic, Jesse’s focus shifted back towards home recording. Since ‘Warm Waves,’ five more Turn On The Sunlight albums have followed (including ‘Drives To Th…
Behind the Great Curve
*200 copies limited edition* L. Jacobs releases his second album, Behind the Great Curve, on the Belgian label blickwinkel. Featuring contributions from Milan W., Sarah Yu Zeebroek, and Joachim Badenhorst, the follow-up to the surprising debut Enthusiasm was initially composed and recorded in Jacobs’ small attic room and later refined at Milan W.’s Van den Nest Studio, where W. also handled production and mixing. A line or outline which gradually deviates from being straight for some or all of i…
The Sludge Of The Land
The Sludge Of The Land is the new album by digital folklore and post-exoticism Italian duo Babau. Their first full length since 2023’s Flatland Explorations Vol. 2, with The Sludge Of The Land Babau lands on Impatience with their signature audio-prestidigitation at it’s most disorientingly pungent and zonked, a uniquely contemporary approach described as the sound of a continent moving; animals, plants and minerals included.
As part of a residency at Casa degli Artisti, Milan, in 2022, Babau tur…
Time, Islands and Thresholds
Lay Llamas is an open musical project founded in 2012 by Sicilian composer, musicologist and graphic designer Nicola Giunta. Not a band, but a shifting constellation of collaborators, visions and sounds. Rooted in psychedelic traditions yet untethered from genre, Lay Llamas explores ritual rhythms, imagined folklores and escapist exoticism, where past and future blur into something new each time. The project has featured collaborations with artists such as Gioele Valenti (JuJu/Herself), Mark Ste…
Window Areas
*50 copies limited edition* Indefinite Boundary proudly presents its inaugural debut with Window Areas – an immersive and vibrant fusion of six percussive-laden, free-jazz adjacent, post-punk informed pieces infused with dub methodology from Niikkolahs. Thematically following ancient cultures' practices of forming contact with the Otherworld and the concept of the liminal spaces where life and death collide, Window Areas is an entry to the known unknown.
From the opening heavy psychedelic gnosis…
Il Suono che Ipnotizza
*20 copies limited edition* Negromidi moves slowly and incessantly to a low, inexorable rhythm. It tells of distant myths...
Exotic Animals
DJ Himitsu is a Tokyo-born, London-based producer and DJ, known for his understated approach and deep knowledge of Japanese vinyl and book culture. Following a debut EP of acid house on Australian imprint Lunatic Music in 2023, 'Exotic Animals' marks a new waypoint in Himitsu's artistic evolution.
On this debut full length, driving 303 basslines and kickdrums are traded in for obscure recordings and convoluted samples, which spiral and fuse to form shuffling, heady new compositions. Like shatter…
Red Sky At Night

Splitting Hits For The Heat Damage
*100 copies limited edition* The chars were emerging as some chunk of makeshift swamp coolers blasted the soil surrounding our motorbikes. Sunburn vapours floating grey all around, licking our necks with heavy hazy tongues. Just oppressive and gross. Blah. Someone says heat waves are among the most dangerous natural hazards. I guess that the magnetic tides did not help at all. For sure, recreational sleep deprivation aside, it was days of relentlessly documented tipsy headaches, thermometric cic…
Inland See
Hurtling through the perpetual into this moment is the now and future Bitchin Bajas. An effulgent mass located somewhere beyond land or water, Bitchin Bajas' Inland See is flowing toward you, through the hi-fi, arriving with precision extractions of electroacoustic synthesis, revolving in a post-ambient craft that lifts the listener up powerfully, like you’re floating – in saltwater, or helium – effervescent, effortless, elemental.
Serate Jazz nel Deserto
Tip! Tip! Tip! There is a place on the edge of the desert that is a refuge for broken hearts and lonely souls: Bar Mirage offers its customers the best cocktails in the entire desert, which know how to inebriate the palate and refresh the soul.
Every regular has his favorite cocktail and each of them has some sorrow to drown in it: there is Sir Brummel, the old boatswain, lost in his memories of youthful exploits; at the counter there's Lady Brigitta, the retired fortune teller, who chats animat…
Staying (Leaving Records Aid to Artists Impacted by the Los Angeles Wildfires)
"Everything has changed, and it is changing still. The early days of 2025 (an already baleful year, vis-a-vis America’s darkening political horizon) have wrought heretofore unimaginable destruction in the land we now call Los Angeles. The wildfires that began on the morning of Tuesday, January 7th—and which are still raging—are, in scope and intensity, unlike any other disaster, natural or manmade, in the city’s living memory. Thousands of homes destroyed. Twenty four lives lost at the time of w…
Wait For It…
Nuke Watch stretch out and zone in on “Wait For It…”, two side-long jaunts that run their freeform M.O. to their own illogical ends. Following on from recent excursions on The Trilogy Tapes and Impatience, they revel in the long format for Patience, crafting a steady assault of haywire rhythms and swampy, off-world ambience.
On the A-side’s Supersonic Percussion Anagram, a battery of electronic and sampled drums - from window-shaking subs to melodic sub-continent percussion - shift from one bar …
Ornamental Hermits
"Incidentally this cassette confirms a sinister suspicion I've had for a while that the synthetic pan flute is back - fantastic! I feel so lucky for this generous amount of delightfully bubbling synthesizer music from C.D. Noé. A 90 minute exploration of melodic geometry—intricate yet efforless, synthetic yet alive. Melodies ripple, chords shimmer, patterns unfold like a living system in balance. The artist never falls into the sharp-edged maximalism that, at least to my ears, often weighs down …
