Mirrors
2025 stock This spring, acclaimed abstract hip-hop producer and cofounder of Anticon Records, Odd Nosdam, will release MIRRORS - a new LP via Alien Transistor. Composed entirely of found sounds, most of them sourced from rare and private press vinyl, MIRRORS’s instrumental beats and sound collages pulse with a sense of exploration and rediscovery that has been Nosdam’s calling card since the turn of this past century. Its every track presents a treasure trove of unique aural gems, each nestled i…

Melanesia
2025 stock A journey back in time, maybe thousands of years ago, somewhere in the isolated islands of Melanesia. Here, just like a sound alchemist, Roberto Musci transforms organic nature elements into a unique sound performance of self-estrangement. In the artists’ laboratory, we will discover a melting pot of ancestral ceremonial sounds collided with contemporary chamber music and experimental-electronic methods based on music research. Among these, ethnical music of the populations of Kanaki…
Karachi Files
2025 stock In May 2015, an assortment of electronic musicians from Pakistan, the Maldives and Germany followed the footsteps of brothers Hannes and Andi Teichmann, otherwise known as Gebrüder Teichmann, the Forever South crew and the Goethe-Institut to meet in Karachi; Pakistan's industrial capital, harbored on the Arabian Sea. A house was remolded into a temporary recording studio. It would become a place to meet, inspire and be inspired, record, play, eat and sometimes sleep. Musicians, togeth…
Reaping From The Conflux
2025 stock Philipp Hülsenbeck and Michael Schönheit entered their collaborative space, the Great Hall of Gewandhaus Leipzig, in spring 2019, in order to explore the sonic potential of the Schuke organ juxtaposed with unrestrained electronic synthesis and otherworldy digital processing. With ease, clarity and fruitful respect towards the others craft, they composed Reaping From The Conflux, an hour long work of music, condensed in a synergy of opposing musical aesthetics, teetering between acou…
Partura
2025 stock Partura is a musical album dealing with cosmogony, i.e. the collection of mythical and original stories and scientific conjectures seeking to explain the origin and evolution of the universe. It covers the evolution of humanity, living and non-living things such as the mineral components of the gaseous atmosphere, water and rocks. Partura is a mythological tale illustrated by symbols, a kind of contemplation of life. It examines what is happening around it, from close up or from a dis…
The Enlightenment Machine
2025 stock A nun in Berlin seeking enlightenment. Khan as a male hustler on “1-900 Get-Khan” (Matador) including his own phone sex line. Khan the torch singer Gothic Bunny on “Who Never Rests” (Tomlab), as the “Last Standing Disco Band” with Captain Comatose (Playhouse), once around the planet and off into space, and now as the bearded big city nun on Album Label. The songs on “The Enlightenment Machine” tell small tales of ethics gone astray, interchanged sexes and cheap pearls of wisdom that s…
An Antworten
2025 stock AN ANTWORTEN showcases two new tracks from Tokyo based producer TENTENKO alongside revisited and reworked versions by TOLOUSE LOW TRAX, MM/KM and NIKA SON.

A Beat Of Silence
2025 stock With his latest record, Notwist singer & guitar player, film soundtracker and label boss Markus Acher, aka Rayon, offers up a sparse, intoxicating LP of instrumentals. As the name suggests, the spaces between notes here are treated with as much gravity as the notes themselves – arpeggios spiralling upwards, conflicting yet interlocking in a dizzying overlap of time signatures. An obvious reference point is Javanese gamelan, with its ensemble of hand-beaten metallophones and bamboo flu…
Espacios En Soledad
2025 stock Does returning to a place have a sound? Can the ear have a memory? And what if places which we return to are just empty shells? Choreographed rooms which we need to play, fill from scratch each time with fragments from the past and present, layer upon layer, familiar and still somehow always new and differently assembled. Paula Schopf’s Espacios en Soledad are acoustic walks around present day Santiago de Chile, the city where she was born - which she always left, had to leave and to …
Autopilot
2025 Stock.  A lot has changed in the way musicians, record labels and publishing houses perceive themselves since record company revenues began their steady decline. With every bankruptcy filed by a label, record shop, distribution company or music magazine comes yet another loss of direction. Music publishers play a special role in this ever-changing landscape—handling rights rather than selling records, positioning themselves at the center of discussions about copyright in the digital age. Au…

Konoma by Takuro Okada is an evocative exploration of musical identity informed by Afro-American traditions and a Japanese artisanal spirit.

Good Star Dubs
2025 Stock. In 2007, Tadd Mullinix and Daniel Meteo locked themselves in a Berlin studio for one intense week with a singular vision: to channel the spirit of mid-80s Jamaican digital dub—the raw, revolutionary sound pioneered by Prince Jammy's legendary "Sleng Teng"—through their own experimental lens. The result was 15 tracks of deep, hypnotic dub, combining Mullinix's handcrafted digital rhythms with Meteo's immersive studio treatments. Guitars, organs, keys, and off-beats dissolve into casca…
The Days Within
Vert is back. And it’s as if his last album for sonig just came out. The eleven songs on The Days Within don’t have much to do with ragtime, but they have plenty to do with songwriting. A kind of songwriting that is so typical of Vert, who has meanwhile relocated to Berlin, that it can hardly be mistaken for anyone else’s. The tracks on The Days Within all have such a well-defined profile that it is difficult to describe them in terms of one specific style. Butler doesn’t like to use the same id…
Terra Nova
Tempo Livre is a collaboration between Pedro Tavares (funcionário) and Luís Neto, where progressive rock, ambient folk, experimental electronics, and pop intertwine in compositions that explore themes of memory, fear, and transformation. The album Terra Nova is a sonic journey divided into nine tracks that drift between ethereal passages and rhythmic explosions, where the delicacy of traditional acoustic instruments like santur, nyckelharpa, and duduk contrasts with eclectic drums, elastic bassl…

Wielding a guitar as her main instrument, Lipstate has pioneered a transcendent approach to composition through her mastery and integration of effects pedals and technology. Forming unexpected sonic routes, her songs are vivid and cinematic, telling intricate tales with each tone an…

Mountain of fugitives
**2025 Stock** Mountain of Fugitives invites the listener into a realm where ambient sound design and narrative instinct merge to form a deeply atmospheric, two-disc meditation on wandering, refuge, and landscape. Across eight long-form pieces, Valera Hip sculpts immersive environments that blur the boundary between documentary realism and imaginative reconstruction. Drawing upon authentic field recordings—rustling leaves, distant voices, shifting wind—as both texture and thematic anchor, the al…
