A Typical Night In The Pit
300 copies. A Typical Night in the Pit is a collection of new music by Los Angeles' Nick Malkin. It is an album that finds the artist absorbed in the density and chaos of the urban complex. It is unquestionably an "LA album", but not the LA of hi-fi listening bars and twinkling, Instagram-ready new age. Rather, Malkin navigates something more akin to the LA found in the films of Robert Altman or Alan Rudolph -- overheated, tense, hazy, frayed -- with blue-lit, nocturnal compositions that at time…
Contemplative Figuration
300 copies limited edition With Contemplative Figuration, Broshuda pushes his amorphous, impossible-to-pin-down music in exciting new directions. Stitched together in various European cities over the last few years, it is the artist's most dynamic and ambitious release thus far, drawing equally from musique concrete, beat research, ambient, tape collage, and spoken word. Episodic in nature, the collection functions well as a sort of impressionistic travelogue, with romantic, hazy atmospheres coa…
Flowered Knife Shadows
*300 copies limited edition* Under their Exael moniker, Berlin-based producer Naemi makes highly imaginative music that can be seen as a study in contrasts -- precise, hyper-detailed drum programming sits atop fuzzy, organic pools of ambience, virtuosic futurism is wrung from a falling apart laptop. Following a string of excellent releases, both solo and in group settings, Flowered Knife Shadows features eight productions that feel like the full realization of the project, demonstrating the arti…
Colocate
*300 copies limited edition* Motoko & Myers is the collaborative project of Bay Area-based duo Wonja Fairbrother and Daniel Letson. Colocate follows their 2018 debut release on the Open Hands Real Flames imprint (Bass Clef), further developing their distinctive style which combines melodic, pop song structures with live improvisation and odd or no-meter approaches to rhythm and timing. It is a collection of bright, addictive listening, full of tracks that manage to feel at once hooky and aleator…
Leaning
**300 copies** Kaspi & Stride is a new project from Justin Tripp, best known as one half of the Georgia equation. Leanings has its origins in rigorous yet laid back studio sessions, dual personal practice sensibilities that seem to get at Tripp’s creative ethos as well as any descriptors might. The material here was born out of collaborative studio sessions with multi-instrumentalist Jimy Seitang (Conga Square / Stygian Stride) - the “Stride” of K&S. The music from these sessions has been rework…
Objet Dirt
*300 copies limited edition* New solo album by Eric Lanham (aka Carl Calm) of the Caboladies. Over the past fifteen years, Florida-based multi-instrumentalist Eric Lanham has quietly generated a diverse and remarkable body of work both as a solo artist and in group settings. From the disorienting drone/collage ecstasies of Caboladies, his trio with Christopher Bush (Flanger Magazine) and Ben Zoeller, to wildly divergent solo flights under both his own name and as Carl Calm, Lanham's carefully me…
Cold Clay From The Middle West
*300 copies limited edition* Iggy goes West! Soda Gong welcomes back Kansas City-based musician Iggy Romeu with his latest collection as Mister Water Wet. Cold Clay from the Middle West is a (characteristically) sharp left turn from his last two records, with Romeu offering up a surprising and addictive mélange of crackpot Americana and smoky noir beat science. "Cold Clay Suite" opens the record, a five-part ride into the sunset that features Cooder-esque guitars, cat-gut fiddle, horse-hoof perc…
All The World Is Somnambulizing
2006 release ** Postmodernxs' latest album, All The World Is Somnambulizing, is a mesmerizing journey through a dreamlike soundscape.
Vapordub: An Introduction To Contemporary Psychedelic Music - Vol. 1
100 copies limited edition "Two years after our last V/A, we're back with the first opus of our ‘Vapordub’ imprint series. Another artifact rising from the depths of the leftfield music scene, this time focused on contemporary psychedelics. Highly inspired by the textures of the vaporwave sonic aesthetic, our 16-track compilation displays in turns intriguing sound design, graceful synths from a new age, weird exotics and psychoactive slow-dubs.Designed to please either curious or skilled ears, o…
Air - The Complete Collection
Pete Namlook, one of the most influential figures in the history of electronic music, passed away in 2012, leaving behind a vast sonic legacy. Yet Air remains his most poetic, organic, and emotionally resonant project. Created between 1993 and 2006, the Air series is a five-part symphony of ambient, ethnic, jazz, neoclassical, and cosmic electronic elements.
Now, nearly two decades later, we proudly present the long-awaited reissue of the entire series — for the first time ever as a complete 5CD…
Amity
2010 release ** "'Amity' is definitely the most accessible album in the discography of this project. After flirting with American Tympanic Audio, [haven] comes back to the Polish market. The fifth album of one of the most interesting projects on the Polish independent scene released on Zoharum - [haven]'s 'Amity'. The new album can be quite a challenge for the current [haven] fanbase. 'Amity' is a bold journey through different soundscapes. [haven] links different musical worlds: elements of amb…
RhythmiCon
*100 copies limited edition* Con's rhythmic explorations, carried out over 18 years from 1982, culminated in this full 66-minute album. A truly unique release, it stands apart from his other works, offering a distinct sonic experience. Intentionally simple – almost primitive – its rhythmic structures capture the musical atmosphere of the early '80s. Hypnotic, analog-driven, and now available for the first time on CD.
Moko
*200 copies limited edition* TON is thrilled to present “Moko”, the eighth album by FourColor, the solo project of Keiichi Sugimoto. With a remarkable discography spanning labels like 12k and Apestaartje, FourColor has established itself as a master of blending processed and raw guitar chords, drones, synthesizers, and samplers into a warm, evocative, and deeply immersive sonic landscape. “Moko” continues this tradition, yet it also marks a new chapter in Sugimoto’s artistic journey.

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…
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."
Flow of Adhisthana
Prajñāghoṣa's debut ambient album on Into The Deep Treasury is a narrative, a musical poem, an attempt to share the story of a transformative odyssey — an outer and inner journey marked by higher aspirations, spiritual growth, and a profound connection with the world.
Z
2015 release ** "As Cummi Flu, Doerell mainly does sound design. There is not a sound on Z that has been included by chance. Each acoustic event has been painstakingly carved, demonstrating its creator's attention to detail. The squeak of a computer, the sound of a door shutting, the drawn-out hum of a cello -- everything here is of equal importance, positioned democratically side by side. Each track feeds on a wide variety of sound sources. And even when there is a lot going on, there is immen…
28
2005 release ** "The glitch isn't going to go away. Despite occasional predictions by those in the electronic community that the musical devices of tiny clicks, pops and 'stuck CD' effects - pioneered by the likes of Autechre, Matmos, Fennesz, Raster-Noton and Oval - are just a passing trend, these techniques seem to have ensconced themselves as an established feature of the musical landscape. Perhaps one reason for the longevity of these software-driven effects is that they provide an extremel…
Drafts
2007 release ** Dawid Szczesny is a sound artist located in Wroclaw, Poland. His music is mainly based on samples of old vinyl records.
