Cupar Grain Silo
'Cupar Grain Silo' is Sam Annand's first release on the Blackford Hill label. Its nine tracks blur the lines between ambient electronica and sonic history, as synthesised melodies and rhythms reverberate through the extreme acoustics of the disused Cupar Grain Silo in Scotland. Built in 1964 as a sugar store, the silo towers 60 metres above the surrounding Fife countryside. Its industrial life was short: in 1971 it was closed, and barring a short period as a grain store, remained empty for decad…

Ambient Black Magic
*2024 stock* Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement is the ambient techno project of Dominick Fernow. Focusing on slow paced bass studies and synthetic dub textures, surrounded by collaged and looped field recording environments, RSE shrouds sound over image to target the sector of brain where fear supersedes rationality -- the imagination. As RSE appears live for the first time, it has transformed into an entity with rotating contributors on stage and on recording. Ambient Black Magic moves away from…

Waves
Elina Bolshenkova (aka Eli!) is an activist, artist and musician from Russia who currently resides in Georgia. Her previous long player ‘Flood Management’ was released by the indefatigable Infant Tree label.

The title for the album is taken from a novel of the same name by Soviet-Russian science fiction writer/brothers Arkady and Boris Strugatsky who were renowned for their fictional fut…

Only Good Dreams For Me
On “Love2,” the second track on Zaumne’s 'Only Good Dreams For Me', Natalia Panzer’s voice emerges from a hazy smear of a pop-song chorus: “I am touching the cold window,” she intones. “I am touching the spinning walls. It’s a way to remember what’s mine is yours, and back again.” 'Only Good Dreams For Me', Zaumne’s first release with Warm Winters Ltd., embraces such direct contact as it cycles through states, from dread to hope. The heavy air that lingered on Zaumne’s previous releases, like hu…

Finomehanika
Tip! An essential repress of the monumental 2020 album. Finomehanika was Rijeka-based Robert Merlak's first solo release in two decades since "Albumski" on pioneering avant-garde techno label Phthalo which put him on the map next to fellow artists as diverse as Dntel, Daedelus and James 'V/Vm' Kirby.

Enmixed
*50 copies limited edition* Moody cacophonies, sonic dispatches from Japan, crystalline breakbeats that are more environment than rhythm: Jake Muir’s enmixed, described by Muir as a “(re)mixtape,” is a mind-bending deep dive into the enmossed archive. Besides reflecting the history of the label, Muir’s mix is a production in its own right. A Los Angeles native based in Berlin, Muir is a DJ and field recordist who “sees mixes as a vehicle to explore narratives outside of the album format.”
In Bat…
Soplo
Tip! *100 copies limited release* "Soplo" is the debut solo album from Berlin-based Mexican multimedia artist, sound designer, and DJ, Daniela Huerta -- and a true thing of beauty it is. A hallucinatory array of vaporous atmospheres, illusory rhythms, vanishing voices, and evocative environmental recordings, "Soplo" (Spanish for 'breath') ruminates on the enduring resonance of storytelling. Huerta places an interest in mythology at the center of her practice, using it as a springboard to explore…
