'Emisphere' is the last album from Paul Chain to be completely improvised. As usual, the tracks tend to be long, many being near or above the 15 minute mark, with a large use of the Hammond Organ throughout, and introduces some electronic elements as well. Released in 1996 by Paul Chain playing all instruments with the occasional help of Sandra Silver on vocals.
On Threewave, 36 gathers Wave Variations, Symmetry Systems and Reality Engine into a single arc of luminous machine melancholia: a five‑year study in concise synth miniatures where strict limitations yield ever‑wider emotional and conceptual horizons.
„ behind horizons at the end of a breath why I love luna parks *_* „ Ben Kaczor debuts his first LP on St. Odes. Sirene showcases a more experimental and cinematic approach to sound. Tracks such as Amusement Impressions and Phantom Blues emerged from his fine art studies, while Sirene and Oval Waves reflect his work with the Buchla Easel. The artwork features a photograph by the artist himself, making the record one of his most personal works to date.
"The Sound Leaves" began as an interactive sound performance and installation based around humans’ impact on the environment and how that impact is altering the sonic landscape of our world. As ecosystems change due to climate collapse, the sound of those ecosystems changes too. "The Sound Leaves" used an amplified collection of autumn leaves to encourage participants to listen closely to how their actions alter the sounds of the fallen leaves by walking on and through them for a period of time.…
A note from Carlos... "I initially recorded all tracks in California between 2024 and 2025. The tracks were then sent to various locations around the world to each collaborator for completion, before returning to me in California for final touches. They were subsequently sent to Japan for mixing. Then, back to California, and then to Australia, where the final designs for the artwork were created. The final version was then multiplied and spread all over the world until it reached your ears, the…

**2025 Stock** The Bog, released in 2025, finds Cisfinitum (Evgeny Voronovsky) excavating the mythological and sonic depths of the toad—a figure recurring in folk legends, alchemical texts, and ancient rites. Built on a foundation of re-processed field recordings captured in swamps and wetlands, the album takes the acoustic reality of frogs, amphibians, and environmental ambiance and transforms it via intricate sound design into a single, immersive composition. The result is a brooding, hypnotic…
**2025 Stock** In A Thousand Words, Bvdub (Brock Van Wey) crafts his most ambitious single work to date, unfolding one uninterrupted composition across nineteen movements and some five hundred audio channels. This monumental endeavor was performed live in a single take, a testament to Van Wey’s longstanding commitment to authenticity and deeply felt emotion. Rather than a sequence of discrete tracks, the album presents itself as a living meditation on memory, longing, and the often ambiguous way…
Bečva is a river located in the Eastern part of Czech Republic. In September 2020, several chemical leaks into the river caused the poisoning and subsequent death of 40 tons of wildlife in the waterway – an unprecedented catastrophe. Growing up in Přerov, Bečva was an ever-present part of Tomáš Niesner’s youth and this environmental disaster affected him deeply. In an effort to understand the river better and inspired by Werner Herzog’s ‘Of Walking in Ice’, Niesner set out on a journey from the …

*100 copies limiteed edition* Bone Flower is the vinyl debut by Belgian musician Ben Van Houdt (Sitka), releasing solo work since 2015. Born from a decade of sound experiments, the album unfolds as a focused and emotionally charged performance, fusing modern classical elements with drone and minimalist composition. Centered around bowed guitar that drifts between the timbral spaces of cello and violin, its harmonic textures are shaped by magnetic tape and decaying sound structures, creating mome…
Water Witches is an immersive box set that gathers the early, shadowy works of Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement, Dominick Fernow’s most enigmatic project. Remastered by Paul Corley, it offers over five hours of haunted ambient and drone, conjuring dense, hallucinatory soundscapes that blur the line between ritual and environment. A definitive grimoire for those drawn to acousmatic magick and deep listening.
*200 copies limited edition* "Jaime Fennelly, as Mind Over Mirrors, makes music that pushes the known to the lip of the unknown, where it rocks precariously and in exhilaration. He scrambles the familiar and tweaks the comfortable, not through aggression, but a throbbing estrangement. When placed at a distance, these require longer reaches to grasp. The reward for this effort is an enlarged field of perspective, experience, and also of feeling. This is deeply feeling music to feel deeply.
In al…
*100 copies limited edition* Carreira's Cross emerges from three intense days of immersive creation and spontaneous interplay between the Portuguese duo Worksite & Workshop — Zé Quintino and Tiago Maduro — recorded on the 7th, 8th, and 9th of July, 2021.

The result is a work that feels at once exploratory and deeply cohes…
AI-31 sees the debut release from a new collaboration between Samuel van Dijk (Netherlands) and Rasmus Hedlund (Finland). Both key proponents to the scene in Northern Europe, they come together with mutual understanding and a common vision to sound. Dialog acts as a conversational exchange that sees the interplay of dynamic frequencies, evocative imagery and contemporary sonic art. Spread across four sides, the album as a whole exists as a kind of metaphysical process, eternally growing and cont…
AI-36 comes from Ear to Ear - the debut collaboration between label regular Samuel van Dijk (Multicast Dynamics) and Ukrainian artist Yevgen Chebotarenko. Taken from a series of live recording sessions, the album explores in four parts a markedly darker realm of soundscape music. A cornucopia of abstract morphing scenes and heady synesthesia, the album brims with rich sonic detail and evocative gestures. Deftly blending organic sound textures with an experimental austerity, ‘Live Recordings’ dis…
Multidisciplinary Brussels-based artist Sagat steps up with a new mini album on the Basic Moves side label, Gems Under The Horizon, featuring a remix by Slovenian ambient bird e/tape. A few years ago, Wiet Lengeler, aka Sagat was invited by Basic Moves to create a live visual show using an analogue video synth setup to accompany a 5-hour dj set by e/tape at Face B in Brussels. From that moment on, the synchronicity between the two artists was clear - and this EP is the result.
Besides his visua…

Tropismi features stunning cellotronics by Benedetta Dazzi, cellist and sound designer with which Gasparotti e…
Few artists have captured the unsettling beauty of the fusion between flesh and machine as hauntingly as Hans Ruedi Giger. His biomechanical visions, cathedrals of bone and chrome, embryonic nightmares suspended in steel wombs, eroticism bound in cold circuitry, have etched themselves into the collective unconscious. Giger unveiled a world that feels eerily familiar, as if drawn from the depths of a shared ancestral dream or a post-human future already unfolding.
Born in Chur, Switzerland, in 1…

*100 copies limited edition* Ix Tab is an album dedicated to the mysterious Mayan deity, goddess of ropes and snares, and patroness of those who hang themselves.

"My first day in China after two years away, I noticed a strange round object on the table - not only in appearance, but because it emitted musical notes, and my girlfriend literally doesn't listen to music. Ever. Further inquiry revealed it was a handmade version of a steel tongue drum, made by her uncle for her niece, in the hopes that she would not only learn about music, but learn to love it. Neither of those came to pass. But what remained was an object whose sounds I couldn't stop listenin…
2007 release (RARE) ** Edition of 100 hand numbered copies in a green spray-painted C-shell case. Classic Ashtray Navigations, two hallucino-kinetic tracks.
Listening to Points of Inaccessibility is an encounter with a sound field that is constantly in flux. Elements surface briefly, shift position and recede, creating a sense of motion that resists stable interpretation. The music moves between closeness and vastness, carrying traces of memory while withholding a clear point of resolution.
The album’s visual identity completes the project’s conceptual arc. In Mexico City, where Irisarri and Schilp first met, Daniel Castrejón transformed stills from…
