2025 stock There are quite a few Raz Ohara stories that have been making the rounds, but the best one is perhaps the one about how he landed his first record deal: When his debut album Realtime Voyeur was released back in 1999, Raz was merely 24 years old and he’d only just arrived in Berlin. Here’s what happened: One day, Raz just walked into Kitty-Yo’s label office and dropped off a CD with some demo tracks. Since he’d run out of demos, his original plan was to return to the office later that …
2025 stock Reacting to the sounds around him, words said in passing, shards of birdsong, a glint of breeze, and kids at play, Freund (One half of Akron Ohio duo Trouble Books) stands at the center to create gentle meanderings to add as his part of the symbiotic conversation. The soothing sun is recorded alongside soft voices; the intake of a breath mixes with laughter of children. The album can be understood as a dialogue between the small moments occurring around us and our natural response wit…
2025 stock »Is it something in the Danish psyche that encourages this type of beautiful music making? Is it something in the café culture? The water? The food? The colourful buildings? Who can say,« a puzzled, enthused BBC journalist wrote when Future 3 released their third full-length »Like…« in 2001. Whatever it is, it's apparently still there, as the seminal electro trio from Copenhagen, comprised of Anders Remmer (aka Dub Tractor), Thomas Knak (aka Opiate), and Jesper Skaaning (aka Acustic),…
2025 stock Keplar re-issues the fourth album 'Chessa' by Dan Abrams' project Shuttle358 on vinyl for the first time. The double LP edition includes 3 previously unreleased tracks from the same recording sessions back in 2004, as well as an extended artwork with unseen photographs by Dan Abrams.
While undoubtedly associated with the microsound and 'clicks & cuts' movement around the turn of the millennium, on 'Chessa' Shuttle358 left behind the classical rhythmic patterns of the genre and shifte…
2025 Stock. A lot has changed in the way musicians, record labels and publishing houses perceive themselves since record company revenues began their steady decline. With every bankruptcy filed by a label, record shop, distribution company or music magazine comes yet another loss of direction. Music publishers play a special role in this ever-changing landscape—handling rights rather than selling records, positioning themselves at the center of discussions about copyright in the digital age.

2025 stock Los Angeles-based duo Sana Shenai began in 2009 when their Dublab radio-affiliated ambient quintet Golden Hits went on hiatus. Jimmy Tamborello (Dntel, The Postal Service) and Mitchell Brown (LAFMS, Sun Araw, Sissy Spacek) have since amassed a mountain of material culled from 10 years of home recording. In late 2018 the 5-song digital EP "Forewarm" was released by Leaving Records, which now joins seven other pieces on this physical debut double LP for Les Albums Claus, "Warm Forever".…
Konoma by Takuro Okada is an evocative exploration of musical identity informed by Afro-American traditions and a Japanese artisanal spirit. With eight tracks that weave intricate guitar textures, this album reflects Okada’s meditation on cultural connection and the possibilities of stylistic fusion, pushing boundaries in contemporary instrumental music.
2025 Stock. In 2007, Tadd Mullinix and Daniel Meteo locked themselves in a Berlin studio for one intense week with a singular vision: to channel the spirit of mid-80s Jamaican digital dub—the raw, revolutionary sound pioneered by Prince Jammy's legendary "Sleng Teng"—through their own experimental lens. The result was 15 tracks of deep, hypnotic dub, combining Mullinix's handcrafted digital rhythms with Meteo's immersive studio treatments. Guitars, organs, keys, and off-beats dissolve into casca…
First released in 1998, Magic Thread finds Susumu Yokota navigating the liminal space between club rhythm and ambient reverie. Blending vaporous beats, dub inflections, and microscopic detail, the album traces the moment he stepped from late‑night dance floors into dawn-lit introspection.
Image 1983–1998 by Susumu Yokota collects fifteen years of sonic fragments tracing the evolution of his ambient vision. Recorded between early tape experiments and late‑1990s compositions, it bridges lo‑fi intimacy and polished minimalism, revealing the contours of an artist forever balancing wonder and restraint.
With Sakura, Susumu Yokota unveiled an ambient masterpiece that blends sampled fragments of jazz, minimalism, and Japanese melody into a contemplative whole. Released in 1999 on Skintone and later on The Leaf Label, the album turns repetition into poetry, infusing electronic textures with a deep human warmth.
With Grinning Cat, Susumu Yokota continues to refine his delicate ambient universe through a dreamlike balance of melody, texture, and silence. The 2001 album merges found sounds, piano fragments, and vaporous rhythms into an otherworldly narrative of domestic tranquility and imaginative reverie.
Go Kurosawa is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and co-founder of the independent label Guruguru Brain. Best known as the drummer and vocalist of Kikagaku Moyo, he has spent the past decade building bridges between East and West, sound and silence, rock and ritual. soft shakes is something different. A personal chapter in Go’s journey, it marks his first solo album, created entirely by himself and made, for the first time, purely for himself. After Kikagaku Moyo disbanded, Go spent some time p…
Our new album is filled with a kind of sensibility that wasn't a part of our first one: a desire to get anyone who hears it to get up and dance. We spent 2023 playing a good number of live shows, from touring and playing festivals throughout Europe and Japan. We are a band without a drummer, and we’ve been using synths and drum machines—jamming along with machines so to speak—to freely rearrange the songs from our debut album. That experience is what motivated us to make this EP. Playing live in…
Bureau B once again dive into the Sky archive, unearthing another overlooked masterpiece long due for rediscovery. Originally released in 1985, 'Voyage' finds Dieter Schütz venturing beyond his Berlin School roots into a realm of lo-fi immediacy and New Age naivety. Every instrument is played by Schütz himself, except for the drums on "Above", which are performed with syncopated zeal by Michael Fecker. While its textured synthscapes and wistful melodies may echo the aesthetics of 2010s Vaporwave…

*2025 stock* Electronic trio Evade have been honing their repertoire of sounds crafted within the urban pastoral landscapes of former Portugese colony, Macau. In their latest album 'Destroy & Dream,' Evade takes on the view of a distant observer, questioning life, the earth, the universe and the values of its living creatures, yet with the consolation of dreams, seclusion and shelter. The trio builds a haunting tension through sustained silences and fractured electronic arrangements crafted by F…

“When forty, I was still wearing miniskirts, extravagant patterns, pink, fluorescent colours, star shaped earrings. I walked around with my leopardskin hat, my fluffy bag, my floral outfit, until the gaze of others made me feel like it was not age appropriate anymore. Although I am still the same person I was at 16. It's the others I see changing."
There's no better way to describe ageing than through the gap that arises and continues to grow between physical reality and the specular image of the …
