Blanton Ravine
*2024 stock* “‘Blanton Ravine’ begins with the metallic debris of a noisy sound collage work before slowly ascending into a songform that pulls in rhythmic edits, soulful vocals, and horn arrangements. This happens throughout the first album by Public Speaking, the project of Brooklyn artist Jason Anthony Harris, but it gets no less thrilling as the record eventually runs past the hour mark… That this is Harris’ debut full-length is most surprising: he crafts coherent songs out of abstract proce…
New State Of Flux

About You
*50 copies limited edition* Prolific outsider artist Andrew G. Thomson - aka AyGeeTee - brings his unique sonic language to Kit Records, with a frenetic peep into a sprawling archive of unreleased work. About you mutates through elastic synthesis, torporific loops, dislocated percussion and the splattered voices of AyGeeTee's backing group, The Actress Pets. What begins life as a dervish of repurposed instrumental fragments (‘Today’s W’), ghosts into mantric pop irreverence (‘Troubled Dinghy'), …

Disarmo o Sterminio?
Tip! From the dusty archives of a TV station, a handful of instrumental pieces, originally recorded as musical commentary for a series of historical documentaries. The topic is the Cold War: the areas of influence, the balance of power, the threat of the Third World War, the dream of a future of peace and unity.
The Endless Echo
The Endless Echo is the fifth album on Ghost Box for the highly prolific Martin Jenkins. Pye Corner Audio cinematic electronica shifts effortlessly between brooding ambience and menacing dance floor grooves. It evokes awe-inspiring vistas and moments of sublime spine-tingling wonder. This time around Jenkins draws inspiration from scientific and science-fictional notions about the nature of time and the idea that it may be entirely unreal.

Impossibly Distant, Impossibly Close
Abul Mogard and Rafael Anton Irisarri’s partnership unfolded serendipitously at the sold-out opening of the SoundSet Series at Madrid's Condeduque cultural center in 2023 - a program that featured performances by legends such as Autechre and younger artists like Caterina Barbieri and KMRU. The duo's encore that evening, recorded for Spain's Radio 3, resonated deeply with the audience, igniting a creative spark that propelled them to work remotely in their respective studios. At the heart of thei…
Coinos Driftos
Seth Price’s suite “Coinos Driftos“ announces itself with the sound of a rolling coin – a punctuation that repeats throughout the record – before dropping the listener into a storm of harsh winds and far-away bells. When the storm abates we find ourselves in a desolate field of stuttering electric harp and electronic sub-bass. Side B emerges from a mist of gentle tones that soon give way to a juddering contraption of dropped coins and clacking noises, which itself seems to summon the arrival of …
