Poulaine
When you’re creating something loosely referred to as “art” with another person, you’re mining the depths of minds and experience, searching connections with pasts, each of us producing from a different place. Communication exists as unspoken and simultaneous, more carnal than collaborative, and dwelling rather than saying. We all miss that, wrapped up fantasies of perfectness and lovesick doves. Youth, how fleeting and naive. "Created by commission for the University of California at Irvine as …
Parasymbiosis
I have long pondered the concept of connectedness in relation to life’s existence. The Dalai Lama teaches that destruction of one’s neighbour equates to destruction of oneself. In contrast, modern Western culture has placed the individual at the epicentre of existence – to the detriment of non-humans and humans alike. Ecological Memory influences present or future responses of a community; it is this shared memory that enables organisms, objects and the environment to connect to each other, and …
XKatedral Anthology Series III
Tip Tip Tip! XKatedral Anthology Series III is the third installment in the label’s ongoing archival series, and it arrives as both a celebration and a statement of intent. Marking ten years of XKatedral, this double‑vinyl set gathers works composed between 2014 and 2025 by artists who treat harmony and timbre as slow‑moving terrains rather than backdrops. Synthetic and acoustic sources, algorithmic procedures and close‑mic’d performance all serve a common aim: precise, patient work in the realm…

To Pan Eon
Inspired by the ancient Greek concept of To Pan Eon — “the All, the Eternal” — German drone transcendentalists Inade and Troum unite for an immersive four-track 10” EP that explores the infinite cycles of mind and matter. Having admired and followed each other’s work for decades, the two projects now converge in a focused and intense collaboration, shaping sonic landscapes that blur the boundaries between inner and outer worlds. With this release, their shared aesthetic vision crystallizes into …
Kaizen
*150 copies limited edition* Kaizen is the PITP solo début of French ambient artist and sound sculptor Almøst Silent (aka Guy Teixeira), whose deep drones, towering harmonies, and nuanced structures strike a unique emotional chord on each of the album’s fourteen pieces. Borrowed from Japanese philosophy, Kaizen denotes “change for the better”, reflecting the process of rebuilding health, confidence, and artistic identity through intuitive creation. “It is a record defined by patience and persi…
Hometown Girl
Groggy, engrossing new work from Ulla under their newly minted U.e. tag, riffing to the sublime on a set of (mostly) acoustic reveries that tap into the kind of smokey vapours favoured by the likes of Vincent Gallo, Voice Actor, Jonnine. Oh aye, it’s a special one.
Escape - The Futurescape
*350 copies limited edition* This journey begins with ominous drones. Long sustained signals. An eerie mewing that sounds like kittens lost in space. These sequences spin backwards and forwards set against a buzz of low frequency oscillations. Morphing first into flocks of swooping birds, before transforming into something more melodic. Symphonic. Tangerine Dream first mapped this void on Zeit. A Sci-Fi movie sample announces a slow, rolling rhythm. Its pulse eventually augmented by broken beats…
Entering Elysium
Entering Elysium, the third collaborative release from ambient pioneer Steve Roach and multi-instrumentalist Serena Gabriel, blends deep analog synth textures with acoustic and archaic instruments to create a living, breathing sonic paradise. The album unfolds as a doorway into a visionary, liminal realm of tranquility and inspiration where flute, lyre, harmonium, and voice convene within vast atmospheric currents. Warm, contemplative, and deeply evocative, the music reveals a hidden garden of s…
Silmät sulaa
On Silmät sulaa, Pietu Arvola sets out to make a “summer album” and instead lands on a heat‑sick mirage: strings, tape‑scarred electronics and unstable textures steeped in memories of sunburn, burning houses and hospital fevers, where warmth tips constantly toward delirium.
Paranormal Awakening
*200 copies limited edition* Ukrainian sound artist Tungu, a.k.a. Sergiy Senchuk, has long been operating in this domain and has a huge array of collaborations and solo work behind him, besides a background starting over two decades ago in metal and hardcore music. For over ten years now, however, he has been responsible for producing electronic music that draws from improvisation, abstract sound and electroacoustic composition. Paranormal Awakening catches him collaborating with equally prolifi…
XIBIPIIO. In And Out Of Experience
A singular work of deep sonic exploration returns, now unveiled in a definitive vinyl edition.
Past/Present 2025 Compilation

This collection features a series of new, unreleased pieces from artists who released albums throughout 2025, capturing the spirit and diversity that defined the label’s catalogue during this period.

Xerrox Vol.3
Xerrox Vol. 3 is the eighth solo studio album by German electronic artist Alva Noto, released in 2015 as part of the ongoing Xerrox penthalogy, which began with Xerrox Vol. 1 (2007) and Xerrox Vol. 2 (2009).Inspired by formative influences such as Andrei Tarkovsky's 1971 film Solaris, La Isla Misteriosa y el Capitán Nemo by Juan Antonio Bardem, and Henri Colpi, Carsten Nicolai exchanges austerity for cinematographic lushness in the remarkably widescreen third volume of his Xerrox series.

Perennials
Perennials is the latest full-length from Toronto-based anthéne (aka Brad Deschamps), who builds transportive, beautifully detailed sonic worlds using only a guitar, sampler, and modest cache of pedals. Here, his refined treatments, manipulations, and experimentations blend seamlessly with an innate sense of harmonic layering to create an impression of seasonal cycles and their relationship to the human experience at scale. “winter chords” opens with slow serenity and a faint suggestion of hiber…
Lustres
Our approach to making records has always involved an exchange of individually created sounds, which are joined together through live improvisation, studio recording, and the use of diagrammatic visual scores. Over the last several years, we have been interested in expanding very small fragments of these discreet pieces of audio into long-form compositions. This process has resulted in a new approach to how we build tracks from the ground up. In this particular workflow, one of us is largely resp…
ātamōn
On ātamōn, Amina Hocine turns construction‑site plumbing into a breathing organism, casting foghorn‑born “sound crystals” through an abandoned Swedish mine in two long drone rituals where inner archetypes, architecture and air negotiate in slow, searing waves.
Bird Brain Bath
The operating name of New Yorker Al Margolis, If, Bwana were a constant presence in the cassette days. This new record, Bird Brain Bath (Klanggalerie 7") is a wonderfully creaky slab of experimental noise high jinks. One side is entitled "Bird Brain", the other "Bird Bath". Each piece is eight minutes long and if they are played simultaneously they create the record's title tune. Using bird song, blasts from a virtual air rifle, keyboards and dweezly effects of all sorts, Margolis creates two fu…
Seeds On Talk
The first full-length album of this ambient / drone project after two warmly received EPs. Enticing guitar overflows, drowsy melodies, an abundance of field recordings, analogue drone, and sound experiments, walking the waves of memory and the corridors of dreams. Guest on flute - Valera Hip. "Sometimes it happens that you walk across the field and sit yourself down to put an ear to the ground and listen... so just imagine, under the ground, but not too beep, some seeds sitting together on a rou…
