Multifold full-color insert with photos and liner notes included. * Quoting Frans de Waard, Vital Weekly "The music is intense on every level, and there is a great underlying tension in these pieces, a mysterious force if you will."

Crónica de un Secuestro
** 2021 Stock ** Elevator Bath is well pleased to present "Crónica de un secuestro," the proper debut album from multidisciplinary artist Susana López. These compositions were created in March 2020, during the lockdown, as the artist understandably experienced feelings of isolation, of being cloistered against her will. Perhaps this explains the album's attention to space. The notions of movement and exploration pervade the early pieces on this epic collection. The expansive drone and panning rh…

Copernicus Was My Grandad, Kepler Was My Uncle
* 2021 Stock. Red Artwork edition * Very nice 80s Ambient tinged Ambient Electronica compilation A collection of otherworldly transmissions, ambient obscurities and clicks & cuts style glitch. The diverse range of sounds share a mystical theme, whether that translates into the eerie hand percussion of Barry Christian (from his 1989 'Biosonic Domains') cavernous bass trip of Randy Greif or new age leaning ‘Invocazione Dell’Oblio’ by Giorgio Cantoni (from the 'Pianeti Di Lana 2 - The Invocation' l…
Voor Harmonium
** Edition of 250 ** In his essay ‘The Meaning of My Avant-Garde Hillbilly and Blues Music’, Henry Flynt talks about how his music should be analysed as an intellectual tribute to the music of the autochtone, setting aside plain folk references, but adopting academic insights to mold the music one makes as a folk creature. Much of Flynt’s discourse applies to the music of Glen Steenkiste’s Hellvete. Over the past twenty years he has been thoroughly investigating both the ethnic musical language …
Two Tales of Lost Witness Marks
Tim Gick's already-warped patchwork editing of the entire Crazy Doberman output thus far turns increasingly glitched out across the splattered quiltwork of a nine track LP on Aguirre. Any coherent sense of time departs early on the A-side; kicked off with the familiar sound of the Dobes' synth throb and Love-cry woodwinds on top of completely fried electric guitar squiggling, all suspended in spiritual foam; then battered to bits on the greasy flat top of the record's b-side.
Ringing modular syn…
The Fall: Dennis Johnson's November Deconstructed
* White vinyl * The Fall is a deconstruction of November by Dennis Johnson. Written for solo piano in 1959, November is the first example of minimalist music composition and was the inspiration for La Monte Young's The Well-Tuned Piano (1964). The 66-minute piece is a collaboration between legendary artist Lustmord and renowned classical pianist Nicolas Horvath, in which they reduce Johnson's original November to its core element and place it in a landscape of complimentary sound. The Fall echoe…

(Common Eider, King Eider, Badgerlore, Six Organs Of Admittance collaborator) and Arexis (La Breiche, Coume Ouarnede, Stille Volk, Ihan) and all of the spirits of the Pyrenees present during those Dark Moon Rituals, wishing to speak.

Born to offer voice to the stones and waters and…

Simulacra
"First released in 1989 as a tape on the legendary German label Cthulhu Records and re-released in 1998 by OEC as limited vinyl, this legendary album by Ain Soph and Sigillum S finally sees the light for the first time on CD format. An absolute masterpiece of Ritual Music by those two primer Italian post-industrial acts."

"This stuff was previously produced by the band only as tape in a very limited edition of just 100 copies and never reissued... until now! This legendary tape is finally re-released as a 2CD set. First disc features Ritual 00, which is an endless trancy loop used for a Bhakti Yoga rite which can be used also as background for ritual concentration... The second disc is entitled The failure of Jesus, Visible Obscurity, Garbage, the City and the Death... For sure the more obscure and rare Ain Soph …

"CD repress of the original Ain Soph debut album! A must for all researchers and collectors of early exoteric dark industrial…""Ain Soph are a legendary group - or rather an entity - that over the years has managed to win a small but select following, reaching a true cult status. Formed in the early '80s in Rome, they started their activity by publishing a series of tapes not intended for publication but intended as real "magic" rituals. These were sound experiments inspired by magic texts, in p…
Prospectus I
**2020 stock** "Long time sold-out, finally here comes the re-edition of this cult and seminal album! A stunning blend of the modern soft gothic sound and the timeless chants of Catholic rituals. It is at once a beautiful sound, yet also filled with melancholy. Archaic layers of string sounds, bells and choirs are intermingling with heavy drums and industrial loops creating an unsettling and threatening background atmoshere whilst spleen and sweetness forms the foreground. Prospectus I was the f…
Tales from the Tabula Rasa - Early Works 1988-1991
**2020 stock** "This is not a new album! This does not sound like Raison d'être! This is Raison d'être from another time and world! Tales from the Tabula Rasa presents Raison d'être in its earliest form, when there was no past and only future. This was the birth of Raison d'être and the creative music mind of Peter Andersson. In one way it can be seen as the first particles to the seed that later became the established Raison d'être sound in the 1990's. In the other way it can be seen as the evi…
