Wouter Jaspers returns to Muzan with his long time collaborator and friend Steffan de Turck as Preliminary Saturation. Summer Breeze is an ambient-noise album that lives up to its name for just how pleasurable it is to listen to. The music box melody that provides the main theme for “across the floor” functions as a soft counterpoint to the noises and drones that pulse and slide beneath it, evoking images of sunlight and slow stretching shadows. “the house next door” strikes a darker, more myste…

*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* Only a year after the "Nihil Total" album Folkstorm returns stronger than ever with an album of suffocating and death-infused ortodox industrial. Recorded using only 70´s circuitry and lots of metallic percussion Nordvargr has created a dense atmosphere that is dark and threatening as well as hypnotic. A clear statement of what 2020, and possibly the future, will hold for us all; decay, darkness and suffering.

Glacial Movements brings bvdub and Netherworld together for their first official collaboration... but more importantly, a testament to a friendship that has endured and grown for well over a decade - and the pinnacle of the GM catalogue to date. Quite simply, the "equilibrium" of a glacier is the point at which its mass of snow and ice that comprises its mass is forever in balance - neither advancing nor receding... the frozen and slightly less-so forever in balance. Cold depths below freeze all…

*100 copies limited edition* “She is so bright and glorious that you cannot look at her face or her garments for the splendor with which she shines. For she is terrible with the terror of the avenging lightning, and gentle with the goodness of the bright sun; and both her terror and her gentleness are incomprehensible to humans.... But she is with everyone and in everyone, and so beautiful is her secret that no person can know the sweetness with which she sustains people, and spares them in insc…

3LP edition. Remastered A classic within the vast Celer catalogue - one of their finest. Originally issued by the Infraction label in 2008, 'Discourses of the Withered' sees the light of day once more via Will Long's own Two Acorns label, complete with a beautiful remaster from Stephan Mathieu. The album, like much of Celer's work, offers a refuge from the fast pace of modern life. The glacial ebb and flow, and swells of lush strings slows the heart rate and creates a place for introspection, pe…

Packaged in clear vinyl sleeve with folded insert* "This past summer I was working part-time as the ''pool tester'' for a swimming pool in my local area.

*200 copies limited edition* The story of this record starts in 2011 on Anna Clementi’s balcony in Rome. Her long time musical collaborator Thomas Stern is reading a poetry book by famous German MERZ/DADA-artist Kurt Schwitters (Ur-Sonate, Anna Blume) which belonged to Anna’s father, Italian composer Aldo Clementi (1925-2011). Stern and Clementi are immediately attracted and fascinated by the power of the poetry. The poems in this book ignite the decade-long artistic research of the duo. Since t…

Kevin spent this surreal, intense time, rebuilding his studio and retreating into these alternate sonic realities…  Volume 1 is epically slow. Three graceful tracks that are as beautiful …

Synthesizers, field recordings, magnetic tapes together with percussion, various microphones and stringed instruments fill the listening of this musical elegy. In his debut album Heimito Künst takes us inside kaleidoscopic sound visions in which, between references to the darkest and most disturbing kraut sound and experimental sequence plans based on noise polyrhythms, he makes us glimpse wave structures that lead us directly to breathe the author's panic dust . The album was recorded live with…

Originally recorded and released in digital format only in 2021, There Were More Failures Than This is a set of ensemble pieces made with tape loops and analog instruments. Related to its companion album It Would Be Giving Up, this set pushes yet again into the reaches of oblivion, utilising a wall-of-sound approach to world building, and imagining alternate realities. Meanwhile, the fires continue to burn, even if from afar. At the least, it is an example of a conjuring of a myriad of memories,…

Linus Hillborg’s solo debut lures listeners through despaired soundscapes of justly tuned electroacoustic orchestral arrangements seeped in rich harmonic synthesis.

Rent ist the pseudonym of artist and ecologist Katrin Euller. Rent’s sounds refer to industrial ecosystems, interconnections, dark landscapes and their stories and the stories of those who inhabit these places. At the same time, it is the processes of sound creation itself that emerge in Rent's compositions: sounds influence each other, reinforce each other, cancel each other out, dissolve and become noise, sound like the city, a car alarm for example. Then everything gets lost in the fog again.…

*35 copies limited edition* The album begins with a reminiscence of the sea, reverberating waves and suspended echoes of distant, almost forgotten territories. Curved vibrations, nocturnal environments mixed with contemporary research attitudes within the world of liminal/drone music. Oblique surfaces bending in the transposition of azimuth, memory and flow becoming the result of a hypothetical jump. A plastic and interpretative configuration of a body movement, the desire to grow consciously vi…

I stayed in Iwate, where I was born, for a few days and created some sound materials using limited materials and old media. Over ten years ago, Iwate was devastated by the Great East Japan earthquake. Many old things that remained in my memory became rubble, dismantled, and new scenery was there. I bounced every song from “1982” straight onto an old tape recorder. This album that comes out of my interest in sonic "degradation and rebuilding". I treated the guitar and synthesiser in a lot of new …

"It’s a pleasure to bring together, on this album, musicians with whom we feel a very special connection, namely Felicia Atkinson, Büşra Kayıkçı, Carmen Villain, Kuniyuki Takahashi, Pavel Milyakov, KMRU, Ana Quiroga, Abul Mogard and Pedro Vian. All of them have been very generous in their willingness to participate in an artistic experiment: to build bridges between architecture and music. Each of these artists chose a space and translated it into a piece of music, and the result is a sonic kale…

'Black' is a musical eulogy to Amy Winehouse, a heartfelt memorial to a sorrowful demise. Its an album of predominantly beatless ambience possessed by the ghost of 'Back to Black'. Fragmented moods and hypnotic drones melt together as its circular beauty is set adrift, floating away into an endless void, where the original only remains in spirit alone. It doesn’t make particular sense why I was drawn to this idea and compelled to immerse myself in the original song, and her life in general, but …

*50 copies limited edition* "Our intention is to affirm this life, not to bring order out of chaos, nor to suggest improvements in creation, but simply to wake up to the very life we’re living, which is so excellent once one gets one’s mind and desires out of its way and lets it act of its own accord". - John Cage "I recorded this album in the basement studio. I recorded the sound output from the guitar amp and the speaker. The sound seemed to be blowing. In this album I worked underground in th…

Bitchin Bajas' second, self-titled album finds the experimental trio blending musicial personalities of the past to create their own sonic identity. There are no forced attempts at edginess, even though their simple techniques keep the music loose and live-sounding.

On her third full-length album, C. Lavender delves into her experience with a profoundly impactful Buddhist meditation centered in the sacrifice of the self as a source of liberation.

*200 copies lmiited edition* It is not the limit. It’s a fragile shield against the infinitely expanding freeze; it’s a network of invisible rivers that connects every continent and every creature, forever confronting science with its caprices; its psychic soot falls to rest on each of us. With all the reverence that terrestrial awe can afford, the latest work from Washington’s Slow Dancing Society (aka Drew Sullivan) gazes up and asks, Do We Become Sky? Best experienced front-to-back in its 86-…

"Sarah Terral is Clément Vercelletto's double in a solo musical project based almost entirely on modular synthesizers. Le Morfil, her second album after Le Ménisque original (2021), is released on K7, vinyl and digital formats, and is based on short, haiku-like pieces. The musical mosaic is particularly rich and seductive.  This album is "90% based on modular synthesizers" (mainly Mannequin modules and a Serge 4U), says the artist, who seems to like talking in percentages. So, when he talks abou…

Three years after Stroom TV released his debut album Modified Perspectives, Kolàr released, Loops & Pieces, a documentation of sounds he has been working on in the period 2017-2020. According to Kolàr, this tape, also his first release for Dauw, was full of vaporous drafts transforming into solid forms with the help of time and distance. Compared to his previous work, the music on Loops & Pieces is much more stripped down and minimal, yet the dreamy character remained. On Liquid Rhythm, we see K…
