Deafened By The Noise Of Time
Pierce Warnecke’s work springs forth from the nexus of sound and vision. With Deafened By The Noise Of Time, he undertakes a deep interrogation of sound, which mirrors many of his approaches to visual ma-terials. Seeking to test how elements of music are altered through interference and deterioration, he uses a range of methods to reveal new densities, timbres and melodies from within his original source materi-als . Rather than becoming fragmented or overtly degraded though, Warknecke’s work on…
Too Ne
Yui Onodera’s work is patient. He invites a sense of dwelling with his pieces, an encouragement to pause and to allow sound to swell up around you. On Too Ne, he charts out a very specific sonic exploration. Across these five works he creates a lilting passage of sound, a liouidous flow that confirms the adage of Ambient music existing as constant, but never solid. Too Ne also invites a sensing of the self, in that the works ask us to examine our own memories as a way to unlocking a deeper reson…
Electro Nova
Like a rediscovered Viking burial ship, Electro Nova compiles near-mythical drone recordings produced in 1998 and described by Helge Sten aka Deathprod as some of the most important music to ever come out of Norway. It’s the work of Kåre Dehlie Thorstad and compiles two of the earliest releases on Smalltown Supersound, back when it was basically no more than a bedroom operation. It’s taken over two decades, but finally the label have given the material a first ever proper release on vinyl, compl…
Beneath Bridgewater
*200 copies limited edition* The Bridgewater Triangle is an actual 200 square mile forest and swamplands within Massachusetts, USA, an area known for paranormal activity, including UFOs, Bigfoot, Thunderbirds and ‘Pukwudgies’ – or spirits of the forest. ‘Beneath Bridgewater’ soundtracks the fictional experience of a rescue search team lost within the notorious Bridgewater Triangle.
It’s 1982 and a 19-year-old man has gone missing at Freetown Fall River State Park, located within the Triangle. A …
Irrlicht
After his involvement w/ the monster debut albums by both Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel, Schulze went solo and this is the first album (originally issued on OHR, 1972). The first of many classic space rock/trance epics; long tracks in which Schulze plays everything (electronic machines, organ, guitar, percussion, much more), this is some of the finest German Kosmiche Musik there, staggering work and really quite underrated once you get outside his cult following.
Now Right Here
*2022 stock* The duo Minit (Jasmine Guffond and Torben Tilly) have taken a slightly more melancholic turn for their first release on Staubgold. Their two previous efforts released on the Sigma label were more abstract. This one marks an increase in lushness, smoothness, and dreamy near-melodies. In fact, Now Right Here could be described as a cross between Fennesz's Venice and Rosy Parlane's Iris. It has the filtered instrumental/melodic component of the former and the softer noise textures of t…
Spectrum
'Spectrum is a continuation of my interest in the perception of time, and at the same time an acknowledgement of me being on the autism spectrum. I got diagnosed with this about 2 1/2 years ago, which was quite the shock for me at that moment. But in the past 2 1/2 years I have learned so much about this.
This album, with my interest in minimalism, opposed to bombastic music, is a form to embrace my autism and to accept it as it is. I didn't change as a person, but I do know myself better. The m…
I II III IIII
*In process of stocking. 200 copies limiteed edition* The four pieces on this CD were written during travels, moving between places or being on the move. The first rough sketches have been developed further in different situations until they reached the final shape that can be heard on the album. These formations came about after many mood swings and rethinkings. Sometimes, the way to the final results was long, depending o the mood in the very moment, while working on the music. The manifestati…
Love Is Fine
*10 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* This record is dedicated to Mark Hollis. It was thought for a long time and realized in four days of April in Quarto Escuro, in Porto. Everything at the first take, recorded with a lot of love and an unbelievable group of people. It was supposed to be ambient, but it ended up being free. The name is stolen from "Come Mellow, Love is Fine", a beautiful twistedfreak loop.
Composed and produced by Sal Grosso. Performed by Sal Grosso (electronics, …

Même Soleil
** 400 Copies ** Même Soleil" is the result of a dialog between the French photographer Gaël Bonnefon and the French musician Frédéric D. Oberland initiated by IIKKI, between December 2019 and June 2021. "Fueled by travels and their emanations, Frédéric D. Oberland’s music had to build new horizons this year, outlined by the curves of semi-modular synthesizers, the avalanches of effect pedals and the zigzagging paths of electric circuits. Même Soleil, his third solo album, manages to merge mysti…

Aurinkovuosi
Aurinkovuosi brings together five cassette singles made by J. K., which were originally released in small editions (10 copies each) by Vuosi label during 2018–2022. These ten season-inspired minimal "audio vignettes" combine various electroacoustic sounds and techniques with field recordings. They are also experiments on short-form drone piece composing. The duration of the compositions were determined by the cassettes found at the flea markets on which the original recordings were released.

Raising Earthly Spirits
Raising Earthly Spirits is dark electro-tribal minimalism from Robin Storey (aka Rapoon). He builds organic atmospheres from low drones. The music is beatless, but there is a definite rhythm. Storey's drones create the rhythm and set the pace. Experimental sounds create auras of intrigue and mystery. The sound design is intricate and detached; the dark soundscapes are sinister with overtones of an evil existence. This is not a disc for listening alone in the dark.
Winterstille
*In process of stocking. 300 copies limited edition* Alpine Drone from the very depths of misty forests and snowy mountains. A mystic journey through Alpine nature appearing in front of your inner eyes. Winterstille is a unique conceptual album, Rauhnåcht will not become an ambient act, no worries Black Metal folks!
Tkać
LED and Love Sounds (2015) is Forsberg’s first sound-and-light piece. The piece is made of frozen and processed violin sounds. The drones are slowly changing, providing minimal repetitions that never stay the same. ”A slow transition from playing on my instrument, to play only my electronics. Letting the violin hang there with me on stage, listening to itself. Following how the drones slowly change, minimal repetitions that never stay the same. And you can hear the gallery clearly, it moves some…
Fly By Night
Artist's notes: "Originally disseminated as a digital-only release on my now dormant label Pink Pamphlet in 2014, ‘Fly By Night’ now gets a proper release via the Stockholm label Thanatosis Produktion. Since my early 20s the electric guitar has been a constant companion and assistant in my compositional work. Although I'm a much better pianist than guitarist, I've often found my relatively poor “fretboard awareness” to be a valuable asset in terms of focussing my intuitive hearing away from my m…
