Two documentary works by John Young built on soldiers' voices: a First World War veteran recalling the angel at Mons at 101, and the composer's father, a New Zealand gunner, on his war in Italy, where he met Young's mother. CD-R.

Six works by John Young from 2017 to 2023, from New York subway preachers and Oberlin crickets to Mahler’s composing hut and a setting of Simon Perril’s poem after Lévi-Strauss, including the Klang ! and Akousmatique prize winners. CD-R.

Christian Bouchard’s fourth album, five works from 2013 to 2022 that alternate abstract pieces with Montréal soundscapes: eight-track recordings from his car with police radio, a collective 15-minute recording, Canadian bird songs and a bank of oscillators.

Five works by Léa Boudreau from 2017 to 2022: a sonic portrait of Alzheimer's, a bestiary of species adapted to life after the Anthropocene, and four machines to save the world imagined by Montréal schoolchildren.

Six acousmatic works by Adam Stanović from 2017 to 2022, from the Ohio wind whistling through a studio window to midnight recordings in Hong Kong for the GRM commission Goodnight, Tin Hau, and a homage to Dale Jonathan Perkins.

Yves Daoust's documentary fictions from 1995 to 2021: Lily, built on a courtesan's confidences, in acousmatic and violin-accordion versions, a Chopin-based Impromptu 2, and Calme chaos, recorded at its 2012 premiere by the Nouvel ensemble moderne.

Six works by the Montréal composer Vanessa Massera from 2015 to 2018, made in Sheffield, Estonia and Sweden: English bonfire nights, an abandoned factory with accordionist Tuulikki Bartosik, the Stockholms Saxofonkvartett, and her grandmother’s memories of the Resistance.

Hans Tutschku’s hour-long five-part cycle from 2016-22, built from recordings of daily life, ceremonies, nature and improvisations gathered during three months in Japan in 2014, composed for 16 channels and heard here in stereo.

Three works by Åke Parmerud from 2013 to 2021: Louder Than Life, a five-movement memorial to composer Anders Blomqvist, Raw, made only from the unprocessed output of one unruly software synth, and Dark Matter, built from the electromagnetic fields of household devices.

Numbered edition of 200 copies. Six LPs in a box, with restored original artwork reprinted in monochrome blue. Each record comes with its own extra materials: inserts, booklets, postcards and posters. Between 2011 and 2022 Alga Marghen devoted an archival series to the early, unreleased magnetic tape and feedback works of Éliane Radigue: five LPs, issued in small runs and repressed only in tiny quantities, that quietly rewrote the story of where her music came from. A few months after the compos…

Five minimalist pieces by Al Margolis' If, Bwana, built from baritone saxophone, alto clarinet, hammered dulcimer, cello, violin and voice, modulated and looped into cosmic soundscapes and drones. Limited to 400 copies.

Big Tip! Sukegawa's environmental music was heard by thousands of people, none of whom were listening. For more than a decade from the late 1980s he wrote music that played in the offices and research buildings of a large Japanese construction firm, composed by calculating backward from the response of the ceiling speakers it would emerge from, tested against questionnaires filled in by three thousand employees. It was never released, never performed in concert, never reviewed. It filled a space…

New CD from Agencement, the long running solo project of the Japanese violinist, improviser, and painter Hideaki Shimada, the first release on Pogus in five years, and it closes a circle more than three and a half decades in the making. As Al Margolis, the label's founder and a singular force within American experimental music since the early 1980s, has long made clear, Pogus had wanted to issue Shimada's work since the very beginning. That it finally appears now, with Margolis himself among the…

*2026 repress. 200 copies limited edition* Iskra is the debut album by Polish multi-instrumentalist and composer Olga Anna Markowska. Starting at “Dawn” and ending at “Dusk”, it is a journey of melancholic depth and true beauty filled with warm memories from what was & what could be. Using zither, cello, electronics and occasional wordless voice, Olga weaves together something so affecting and under the skin beautiful that it is hard to shake, bringing to mind classics from artists like Jacaszek…
