At Quadrant Park
**Edition of 500 compact discs with artwork by Robert Beatty unique to every individual copy. Each copy forms one distinct frame of a short film never to be viewed in its totality.** For the inaugural release on Quadrant Park, SDEM delivers a live recording with a twist: this set was recorded in early 2024 in a single take to an audience of one, at a now abandoned empty club space beneath a railway arch in Leeds. Following a series of physical and digital releases culminating with Vortices in 20…

Like A Packed Cupboard But Quite...
2003 release ** "The curiously titled „Like a packed cupboard but quite...“ is the 2nd release for the Dekorder label by Un Caddie Renversé dans l’Herbe a.k.a. Dídac P. Lagarriga from Barcelona, Spain after his beautiful 3“CD „Now there’s a weird taste in my mouth“. Not unlike his previous works which have been compared to the likes of Pascal Comelade, Asa Chang & Junray, Penguin Café Orchestra and Steve Beresford, the album’s using repetition and simplicity, melody and warmth, charm and a posit…
Pink
2015 release ** "Maria da Rocha's name may not be familiar to jazz and improvised music lovers in Portugal, because this Lisbon-based violinist and violist has worked primarily in the Berlin and Stockholm circuits, and much of her dedication has gone to interpreting the great composers of contemporary, classical, and baroque music. In her own projects, however, she embraces the processes and aesthetics of improvisation, and it was in this context that we heard her at Creative Fest late last year…
Whitby
David Boulter, best known as a long-time member of Tindersticks, returns to Clay Pipe Music with Whitby - an evocative mini album inspired by the stark beauty and unsettling calm of England’s North Yorkshire coast. Unlike the familiar seaside towns of his youth - Great Yarmouth, Scarborough, Filey - Whitby held no particular memories for Boulter until he visited with his family in the summer of 2024. "I’m constantly inspired by my surroundings, or memories of them," he says. "Sat on an almost de…
Moonbuilding Summer 2025 (How Did We Get Here?) (Magazine + CD)
Good lord, Moonbuilding Issue 6 has taken its sweet time. But don’t look at us, this handsome A5 zine has a mind of its own. Magic like this is out of our hands. Or as ABC’s ‘Poison Arrow’ put it, “she comes when she comes”. But it’s here. Finally. And anyway, in the grand scheme it’s best not to ask how it’s happened, but how quickly you can get your hands on a copy.
So what have we got? Well, taking pole position on the cover of the Summer 2025 issue is the utterly unique Loula Yorke. In our b…
WVLT
WVLT is the newest sonic addition from WNDFRM (Portland-based, Tim Westcott), an album of eight distinct explorations exploring the many facets of experimental IDM. Tim Westcott’s practice is rooted in an acute, nearly forensic attention to sound. Subtle tones, sculpted drones, and lean percussive gestures, always pursued with a patient ear and obsession with sound design. With previous releases on Prologue, Home Normal, and Dragon’s Eye Recordings, and several live performances at Mutek, a new …
Surface Disorder
Multi-instrumentalist, visual artist, and scene creator, Jonathan Uliel Saldanha, has been releasing music under various guises for two decades. With the successes of his moniker HHY (Nyege Nyege Tapes) whether in symbiosis with The Kampala Unit or the syncopationophilic big band of The Macumbas, Jonathan Uliel Saldanha's sonic signature continues to grow more and more singular. Ever synthetic and digital, Uliel Saldanha's work-ethic never eases—having recently started a label of his own, Horror…
We Do Recover
We Do Recover, the new album from Powell and his first album proper on his own Diagonal Records, is a vitalising record of recovery and a statement of reassurance. The music is intensely emotional and lean, and forms a uniquely expressive story that opens up new ground in the artists's bizarre continuum of synthesised sound — this time triggered by experiences of grief and addiction.
The suicide of one of his life-long friends in 2024 was a life-changing loss which eternally altered Powell's lif…

crY [Remixed]
2025 stock What is considered making music today? What is it that we like / dislike or is considered music today? Monotonous structures, global rhythm, predictability? How profound is the influence of pervasive media on how we shape our tastes? Are we able to dissect the overwhelming presence of multimedia content? —Glass. By focusing on the physical aspect of sound—in its broadest way—'crY' can be seen as a response to an explicit impulse to investigate modern commodification beyond its soothin…

Destroy & Dream
*2025 stock* Electronic trio Evade have been honing their repertoire of sounds crafted within the urban pastoral landscapes of former Portugese colony, Macau. In their latest album 'Destroy & Dream,' Evade takes on the view of a distant observer, questioning life, the earth, the universe and the values of its living creatures, yet with the consolation of dreams, seclusion and shelter. The trio builds a haunting tension through sustained silences and fractured electronic arrangements crafted by F…
Painwave
*2025 stock* Grounded on a imaginary built by the duo, Luís Neto and Pedro Pimentel, where alienation from rigid urban surroundings meets an escapism fueled fantasy and otherwordly mysticism, “Painwave” acts simultaneously as the album title and as a self-coined term that suggests the nuclear ambience of the record. Ranging from sound design infused electronic music to atmospheric jazz fusion with an ever present pop feel, delivering a quasi-cinematic experience which unfolds in a labyrinthine m…
Shichishito
"Shichishito, seven branched sword. The new album from funcionário borrows its name from a ceremonial artifact, invoking an introspective journey through the alleyways of the main plot/blade that make up our own personal life. A precise and melodic brush painting what feels like blank sound canvases. At the 36 minute mark, after all the detours, we find a smooth and polished image, resulting in one unique experience, exactly like the sword aforementioned. In comparison to previous releases, this…
Inaudible Works 1994-2008
What have we here? 16 pieces of hard-to-classify music, created during the period 1994-2008, a cornucopia of playful, intelligent, questing and eminently listenable electronic music from Osaka-born artist Hyu, who released two albums on Nobukazu Takemura's Childisc label, in 1999 and 2002. Although a member of the turn-of-the-century generation of artists subsumed under the rather vague term "electronica", his work stands apart in many ways, particularly in his unique exploration of microtonalit…
