Misophonia Colours
*2023 stock. 250 copies limited release* Drone Records launches a new CD series named "SYM" which could be understood as a place holder for different notions and inner processes (such as Symmetrization, Symbiosis, Symbolization, forming an epistemological circle of inter- relations) - associated with the act of perceiving and understanding sound on a substantial level... old and new heroes from the past and future of experimental transcension atmo noises and drones. Swedish Jarl created an ultra…
Gewächse Im Zwielicht
*2023 stock. 250 copies limited edition* This Friesian multi media artist with two works on one CD: his compositions combine drone-ambient and electroacoustic elements and passages in a wonderful way (sometimes spheric, sometime bizarre, sometimesmelancholic) = various instrumental, vocal and electronic sources are building a hypnotic and poetic web, very complex and with many unexpected twists and surprises in the mix... this album is like a little wonder!
The CD combines two complete works by …
New Rules, Same Game, Less Instruction
*2023 stock. 250 copies limited edition* The second release in the new CD series "SYM" from Drone Records, sounds from realms of Symbolization & Symmetrization! These are new recordings from Chicago's Illusion of Safety: microscopic audio events, loops, heavily processed material of all kinds form seven multi-layered tracks that seem to be full of electro-magnetic static, morphing and transforming like a hallucinogenic object.

Besides a new remaster by Kassian Troyer, it was also given new cover artwork by Marc Hohmann that picks up on that…
Camo
The Brooklyn producer’s heavily abstracted ambient music offers a choice between deep listening or blissful distraction. It’s equally gratifying either way.

Wagland's 1921
"Succinct sounds, stately atmospherics, affected instrumentation & synthetic chamber music. Eclectic ambient music of the highest order..." - Slow Music Movement
"Beautifully nostalgic, brooding pearls of puckered melody and cinematic synth gaze from the lesser spotted Lambda Sond, gracing Important with a real lowkey gem tipped to followers of Alessandro Cortini, Kali Malone or Pauline Oliveros" - Boomkat
Waglands 1921 exists in a vacuum somewhere between Pauline Oliveros, spiritual jazz, analo…
Befreit die Maschinen
The promise has for a very long time been that machines will free us from idle labor. They are to take the drudgery away from us so that we can turn our attention to the beautiful, pleasant and sublime things. And music machines have long carried with them the promise that they would enable everyone to make music. Any music that can be conceived and dreamed should be able to be sounded. But neither are people working less today, nor has the fascination with true virtuosity disappeared. On the co…
Chimæras
Named after the mythological hybrid of the chimaera, Forces’ first collection for mappa was put together in a similar fashion. The sounds all stem from a fruitful residency at Stockholm’s EMS Elektronmusikstudion in May & June 2022, leading to a bounty of source material with which to build. The sounds and concept are equally chimeric, stringing together disparate and unintuitive jams, the music mimicking the multi-limbed, sewn together beasts of both creative open source coding and destructive …
