Noon
On either side of the globe, two seminal experimental artists collaborate for the first time: UK composer Richard Skelton and Australian artist Lawrence English meet for Noon, a devastating study of greyscale landscapes, deep sonics, and long-distance unity. “When we first started speaking together, back in 2021, it was a moment of contemplation,” writes Brisbane-based Lawrence English. “The world had quietened, the throws of a pandemic had hushed the ambient noise floor and in doing so had some…
Synthetic Water Music
"In the dream, people didn't need water any more. People's minds became computer chips made of stone." (August in the Water, dir. Sōgo Ishii, 1995) There is a pivotal scene in “August in the Water” where the surface of a pool turns into a stone wall. The water that gave the protagonist's life its meaning becomes a threat. As you fall through this stone wall, you appear in a set of underwater coral-reef corridors, and one of the most beautiful musical themes begins to play: Aquatic Ambience, comp…
Talisman
*35 copies limited edition* Written during a time of fracture and crisis, this album is about looking for a wonder in the cracks. It’s about embracing the flawed and the frail, positing that if re-enchantment is possible, it will sprout from the small things. Built from gentle field recordings and analogue synthesizers, it offers music as a talisman; a warm, homespun garment for uncertain days.
Fioritures
*35 copies limited edition* On Fioritures, Lamasz offers his debut for Le Mont Analogue, transforming fragments of classical music into a quietly immersive work. Rooted in material drawn from thrifted cassettes, the six pieces unfold through looping motifs that drift and dissolve, gently enriched with drones, field recordings, and tape textures. The result is a cohesive, meditative reverie, where each moment slowly erodes into a suspended, near-weightless state.
Butugichag
*2026 stock* The Siberian cold ambient project Stuzha - “severe cold” in Russian - returns with its second full-length release, Butugichag. As on the previous album, the sound is filled with field recordings from Siberia. Butugichag tells the story of a single day in one of the deadliest labor camps of Kolyma. If you are into Northaunt or the releases of Glacial Movements, give this one a try - I believe you will not be disappointed. Stuzha is mercilessly cold. Perhaps too cold for life itself.
Quiet Forest
"My encounter with the Hoh Rain Forest, located inside Olympic National Park across the water from Seattle, felt like seeing a whole new world for the first time in my life. Long green fronds draped along the branches, like a scene in which fairies could be heard whispering to one another. But when you try to listen, no sound can be heard. Amidst the mysterious silence, in which no birds or insects make a sound, every living thing seemed to have stopped in its place, only to start dancing when s…
Woven Static
Many of the field recordings on this album I recorded standing still with my phone or zoom capturing quiet moments. But like silence, true stillness doesn’t exist. Our perception of time creates the illusion of stillness. That perception is not rigid, it can fluctuate and bend. Everyone around us experiencing time differently. I built the foundation of the music around this idea. Nothing in sync, many different loops varying in length. Some fairly recent recordings, others from years ago. I've u…

Overflowed Shelters
*200 copies limited edition* “Overflowed shelters” is one of the many possible reactions to the sadness and anger that reality awakened in us in 2024. We still remain in that state, witnessing something we never believed we would see. Yet it confronts us daily, slowly infiltrating our being. This urge to react arises from within and asserts itself as a necessity. We composed and performed our sounds. Now they will be released and will travel, metaphorically, to reach others in the form of a desi…

Nature's Dream-Harp
Huge Tip! “Sacred Aeolian music capturing and harnessing the divine power of the wind”. Aeolian Harp is somewhere between a string instrument and a receiver. Its strings are agitated by the wind without any human interference, producing tones entirely of its own volition. Archer toured the British Isles setting up his harp in various sacred and loosely mystical locations. Where he let the Devaharp transmit an otherwise unknown sacred music that has always existed around us.
