As next chapter is a recording of the "White Nights" session, originally released on CDR by Die Schöne Blumen Musik Werk in 2003. It is considered by many to be one of the best albums in the Genetic Transmission discography. Dynamic, electrifying and strong material in the spirit of musique concrète.

In many …
Sorry Gold
*300 copies limited edition.* We present a new studio album from Gintas K. The artist in cooperation with Michelle O'Rourke and Emily Aoibheann composed and recorded music for Performance "Sorry Gold". In order to best present the subject and character of this interdisciplinary art, we will use the words of the author herself: "If aerial is the dance of industrial technology, what will the dance of biotechnology be? This new work reinvigorates performance as a living and speculative environmenta…
Artwork 51
*300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* "Artwork 51" is the second album for Zoharum, a group formed by musicians known from the Rapoon, Pas Musique and Promute projects (also previously released by our label). The intercontinental trio consistently continues and develops its formula of psychedelic electronics, using quite similar instruments and sound objects. Just like on the "Welcome to Graceland" album, you can hear echoes of music close to the achievements of Cluster, Deuter or…
Skulls On The Plains Of Turkey
*100 copies limited edition.* On the latest album, Robin Storey once again invites us to a musical journey closer to the exotic world of the Orient, sparkling with many delicately woven miniatures, based on fragments of melodies, heard as if in the deep sleep phase, when sounds and images reaching us from a distance gently fill the space, giving the impression of an integral part of it. Out of nine tracks filled with tribal rhythms, vocals and a wide palette of colors, an extremely coherent, sli…
Early Electronic Works - Caustic / Composite
*300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking. 2023 stock* Since the first half of the 1990s, Giuseppe Verticchio/Nimh began to explore the territories of sound experimentation, alternating and integrating the use of electronic synthesisers, effects, software, ethnic instruments and sound objects of various kinds. In "Early Electronic Works" two obscure unpublished works of a purely electronic nature have been collected, "Caustic" and "Composite", recorded at different times during those y…
Compositions
Oslo’s Deathprod (aka Helge Sten) announces Compositions, his new album out January 27th on Smalltown Supersound, and presents its lead single/video, “Composition 1.” The first new Deathprod studio project since 2019’s Occulting Disk—“a mesmerizing, terrifying, and emotionally nuanced ‘anti-fascist ritual’ of an album” (Pitchfork)—Compositions is the result of an intense period at his legendary Audio Virus Lab studio in central Oslo. All tracks are released in chronological order – in other word…
A Wanderer
*100 copies limited edition. Through its anthropological themes and fragmented process, 'A Wanderer' reflects on the imperfection of life itself, with its music existing somewhere between a series of recent recollections, and the frayed fabric of past lives.
Electrons
*200 copies limited edition.* As the theory of the atom, quantum mechanics is perhaps the most successful theory in the history of science. It enables physicists, chemists, and technicians to calculate and predict the outcome of a vast number of experiments and to create new and advanced technology based on the insight into the behaviour of atomic objects. But it is also a theory that challenges our imagination. It seems to violate some fundamental principles of classical physics, principles tha…
naming the trees
*50 copies limited edition. In processof stocking. 2023 stock* "Naming The Trees (zero192) by J. Surak is a concise art statement, just ten minutes a side on the limited cassette. Apparently produced by a combination of methods: analog synths, patches, treated and prepared instruments, and a humidifier – maybe a field recording of one of these handy domestic beasts, unless he “trained” its limited mind to assist in the performance in some way. Furthermore, it’s got something to do with a dance s…
The Last Piece of Graphite
*300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Ideas are suggested and quickly abandoned. In their wake chance becomes intention. Clues that reveal themselves upon repeated listenings. This is not background music or audio as utility. Repeated plays will unfold their rewards and spaces yet unexplored. For this is the last piece of graphite. Recorded in the studio, in the woods, and on river banks using analog electronics, prepared objects, bass, double bass, guitar, and tapes, in Hamburg/W…

There’s a bleak industria…
Nested Russian Dolls Of Paranoia
Third and probably last volume from Gonçalo F. Cardoso’s most disillusioned moniker, Prophetas. Where the first tape, Reveal, Accept, Remember, Forget, revived mid 50’s ideas of weird hope (UFO sightings, suburbia, space race) and the second, Maury Island Reverie, explored early 90’s disillusionment through a sound world of mall culture, late night cable TV and rampant consumerism, this new work concludes de unplanned trilogy with a more randomised yet no hope approach to the sentiments and conc…

About the music, Puppy38 himself says, "A dash of John Carpenter, whispers of early Cabaret Voltaire and a portion of gingerbread stuffed wi…
