Column Of Shadow
*350 copies limited edition on Cosmic Shadow (Green Marble) vinyl* Column of Shadow is a grainy ritual, an array of seventies, occult moods, and the synth soundtrack to a diabolical film soon to see the dark of day. With nods toward kosmische Musik in tender scenes and unnerving ceremonies, it is folk horror in reverse, whereby the past visits the modern world like sounds of old locating a new home in the present that embraces them.
Absurdum

Voices
*Limited edition of 200 copies.* Involving electric drone music; static backgrounds surrounded by occasional field recordings, distortions, hums, metallic sounds, gongs, Tibetan bowls with subliminal oriental suggestions. Compositions that are sometimes coloured or guided by short, deep, hypnotic melodic phrasings of electric guitar, hints of slide guitar, pounding piano notes, or violated by sudden modulations of sibilant electronic waves alternating with bombastic electric pulsations; chaotic …
The Visions Of A Dream Traveller
*Limited edition of 200 copies.* A new work for the 'Like the Snow' project by Luca Mazzariol, a remarkable Italian artist who in three years has put out as many CDs of excellent music of difficult stylistic cataloguing, among whose textures - always strongly evocative and of great emotional impact - alternate dreamy and romantic atmospheres, passages with an epic and almost 'orchestral' pace, eclectic rhythmic digressions sometimes coloured by more distinctly electronic sounds, delicate ambient…
Il Ritorno Degli Inverni Freddi
*Limited edition of 200 copies.* Eight 'watercolours' of 'classic' ambient music with nuanced and delicate hues... Eight touching instrumental 'landscapes' painted through soft and sober sonorities, barely whispered melodies, an ever-changing play of light and shadow with a flavour as hypnotic as it is relaxing. A continuous observation of the surrounding landscape through swaying leaves and windswept tree foliage, catching and capturing in the apparent stillness every little movement, every ele…
Mysterium, Incubus et Terror. Music inspired by Edgar Allan Poe stories
Edgar Allan Poe’s power to inspire artists of various different mediums and styles has been a significant factor of his enduring popularity, as has the man and the mystery himself. Whilst the academia hauntings of M.R. James and the cosmic horror of H.P. Lovecraft have experienced something of a renaissance in recent times, E.A. Poe has always been a lingering presence. His meandering stories featuring such things as the onset of plague in a quarantined complex, troubles at sea, a murderer preyi…
These Are Dreams
Founded in 1992 after Robin Storey left Zoviet France, Rapoon soon became an outstanding ethno-dark ambient project that has gained a cult following all over the world. More than 80 albums have been released over those nearly 30 years, some more beat driven, others more playful and with ambient sounds and ethnic influences. Rapoon has never stopped evolving - think of Cultural Forgeries, an album full of unplugged acoustic music. Or Downgliding, full of compositions on the piano. Recent Klanggal…

Pervades
Head to the western neighborhoods of San Francisco, and the city becomes a very quiet place after midnight. By 3am,one can almost hear the fog spilling past the sodium lights that illuminate a lonesome street corner at Judah and15th. Whatever soundtracks that emerge from that time and that place inevitably embody that nocturnal atmosphere, anarcoleptic weariness, a waking dream of the insomniac. Such is the psychogeographical realm as channeled throughsound for Hauras, the obliquely musical conc…
Einige Schadstoffe
In "Einige Schadstoffe", we have quite the potent homage to the classic era of industrial noise. Think Throbbing Gristle’s Second Annual Report, Come’s I’m Jack, MB’s Symphony For A Genocide, and even Nord’s Ego Trip. The sentimentlinking all of these records is a clinical detachment in the production and broadcast of scalding tone, sickly rhythm,and unclean readymades, emerging through the spectacle of the human conditions of alienation, paranoia, and cruelty. Ultimately, such works are intende…

*300 copies limited edition* Svenska Likbränningsföreningen (or more simply SLF): a healthy dose of post mortem industrial music, made in the traditional way.

Recorded 2022 in Studio Ulvkällan and Nar Mattaru. All cremation oven gas nozzles and door locks, freezer ambience, human bone vibrations, dissecting t…
Deep Red. A Tribute To The Cinema Of Dario Argento
*200 copies limited edition.* Dario Argento was born in Rome, Italy, on September 7, 1940. Before becoming a screenwriter and later a director, he was a film critic. Ever since his "The Bird with the Crystal Plumage" heart-stopping directorial debut in 1970, Dario Argento has been redrawing the boundaries of cinematic horror with flamboyant violence, feverish plotting, and deliriously stylized compositions. Initially associated with giallo, the pulpy Italian subgenre he helped formalize and woul…
Sargo / Posidonia
The ultimate deep listening experience from two masters of dark ambient. A slow descent into the blackened watery abyss, where light cannot reach.
That Space Somewhere
Cold Spring present That Space Somewhere, the first new album in 14 years from Lull -- the pioneering, isolationist dark ambient project of Mick Harris (Scorn, Fret, ex-Napalm Death). Lull was conceived by Mick Harris in 1990, in an attempt to create music that would stretch, if not forsake entirely, the structures of conventional music by developing and exploring sound without beats. Mick Harris on Lull: "I finally heard the way of recording, making profound sounds. Lull is purely something I c…
Love's Secret Domain
*2022 gold vinyl repress with insert. 100 copies limited edition* In 1991 Coil released the third of their early classic full-length albums "Love's Secret Domain", seemingly casting aside the gloom and funereal beauty of its predecessors in favour of a painstakingly multi-layered hallucinogenic electronic beast, which unlike some of their fellow ex-industrial contemporaries' releases of the time wasn't an attempt at easy accessibility or (the-gods-forbid) danceability, but a vibrating psychedeli…
Interdimensional
The new Sonologyst album, "Interdimensional", explores the paraphysical dimension of cosmic music. It completes the dilation process of his sound, which began with the albums "Silencers" and "Ancient Death Cults And Beliefs", which now form an ideal trilogy inspired by what is beyond the boundaries of science. "Interdimensional" is inspired by the scientist Michio Kaku who theorized what could be the remote future of the human species; beyond matter, the stars, and known dimensions. A future tha…
Stanford
Debut collaboration between Puppy38 (Hiroshimabend) and Alan Rider (Adventures in Reality, Stress, Dance Naked, Attrition, etc.) co-released by Opiumdenpluto and Adventures in Reality besides Fourth Dimension Records. This album brings together incredible electronic works designed to recreate the sound experience of the notorious Stanford Prison Experiment. About the music, Puppy38 himself says, "A dash of John Carpenter, whispers of early Cabaret Voltaire and a portion of gingerbread stuffed wi…
Mythos Of Cthulhu
*150 copies limited edition* "Cthulhu is the priest or leader of the Old Ones, a species that came to Earth from the stars before human life arose. The Old Ones went dormant, and their city slipped under Earth’s crust beneath the Pacific Ocean. They communicated with humans by telepathy, and, in hidden corners of the world, uncivilized people remembered and worshipped Cthulhu in rites described as loathsome. These groups had statues of Cthulhu that seemed to be made of materials not found on Ear…
