Coalescence
A mild-mannered engineer by day, Michael Carlson is an experimental computer musician who focuses on drone ambient music and field recording; revolving around tracker programs since the early '90s, informed and inspired by the eclectic styles of music he listens to. The results sometimes hold the listener in stasis, other times guiding the listener through undefined vistas, always with the intent to reward patience. 'Coalescence' is the culmination of several years of exploration, experimentatio…
Obreel
Obreel emerges as a compelling meeting point between three distinct yet profoundly complementary voices within contemporary ambient and experimental electronic music: Pepo Galán, Joachim Spieth, and Markus Guentner. The result is an album where rich textures, delicate fragility, and architectural clarity coalesce into compositions of meditative depth and luminous resonance.
Stillform
Stillform is a meeting of kinesthetic restraint and sonic precision. The album’s aesthetic lives in reduction - sparse motifs are carved out with care, micro-rhythms and attenuated textures bloom and dissolve with measured control. The collaboration reflects both artists’ shared interest in how minimal elements can create profound aural spaces: Onodera’s spatial sensibilities and Arovane’s keen melodic structuring converge to offer a listening experience that is simultaneously intimate and expan…
Spectral Passage
*2026 stock* With Spectral Passage, rhubiqs delivers a deeply immersive concept album that traces a psychological journey from turmoil to clarity. Inspired by artists like Tim Hecker, Fennesz, Sarah Davachi and William Basinski, the record layers guitars, synths, pianos, samples, field recordings, strings and brass into shifting soundscapes that mirror the mind’s passage through anxiety, trauma and renewal.
Opening with dense, disorienting textures (Infinite Dusk, Endless Nights), the album grad…
Low Harmonics
*2026 stock* Following his Affin debut Dolere in the summer of 2024 and his collaboration with Joachim Spieth and Markus Guentner on Arcadia, zakè returns to the imprint with his second solo album, Low Harmonics. As the title suggests, the record sinks into the lower depths of sound, shaped by heavy bass currents, low frequency drift, and slow moving vibration. Low Harmonics extends the reflective world introduced on Dolere, which explored how time stretches during periods of sorrow and how soun…
Vestige
Vestige continues Joachim Spieth’s refined exploration of spatial sound and textural depth. Building on the sonic language developed throughout his recent works – including Retrace – the album expands the dialogue between ambient atmospheres and dub-infused detail. The result is a composition of weightless intensity: a sound that unfolds in motion, inhabiting both vast hall spaces and microscopic frequency shifts. Driven by the question of how much presence can reside within a single, minimal so…
Aegis Of Silence
*2026 stock* With rhubiqs we welcome a new artist from the United Kingdom, who makes his first appearance on the Affin label with the album “Aegis of Silence”. Musically, the project moves between the poles of warm electronica, post-rock and soft ambient sounds, which are miraculously merged into a melodious body of work. rhubiqs' sound works fit into the existing affin sound garden on the one hand, but shine with an independently developed signature that is able to set its own accents.
HH
*100 copies limited edition* Time spent in hospital rooms. The weight still unfolding. The uncertain future. More questions than answers. Pieces of my heart, heard through the sounds of HH. For my wife. Shaped by what we are moving through together. An attempt to meet pain with love. Keep going. Try to rest. When can we. Holding each moment close, celebrating it as if it were both our first and our last. Knowing that love, in its truest form, is never measured by grandeur but by the depth of wha…
Unconsciousness Silence
Unconsciousness Silence is the latest ambient exploration from Japanese sound artist Chihei Hatakeyama. Known for his ethereal guitar drones and textured soundscapes, Hatakeyama creates immersive sonic environments that unfold slowly, inviting deep listening and introspection. This release continues his signature approach, blending delicate melodies, subtle electronics, and spacious ambient textures into a meditative journey.
The Iron Soul Of Nothing (2LP)
Rare 2011 2LP set on Ideological Organ with Stapleton and Potter's subtle and drone-y remix of the band's 2000 ØØ Void album.
Dominium Terrae
*50 copies limited edition* A cry. Woodsmoke drifts across a field and into the forest, an acrid smell haunting it, and the sound of distant cheering, chilling those squatting wide-eyed among the underbrush. It could be anywhere in Europe in the 15th, 16th or 17th centuries - a woman being literally burned alive, outwardly for being at one with Nature, but more prosaically and to many in the know, for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
The deafening, hateful voice of patriarchal re…
