Dead Janitor is the alter-ego for Slovak electronic technician Braňo Findrik. Over the past decade, he has steadily produced a series of digital releases leading to his debut Medusa LP for Urbsounds. With an arsenal of pixelated breakbeats and stuttering samples, Dead Janitor presents an adventurous form of polymetric electronica, echoing the complex IDM explorations of the pioneering work of Aphex Twin and Autechre. Medusa is an apt title for the album that hybridizes digital and analogue techn…
"Choreographer Daniel Linehan’s ‘The Wonder Of It All’ radiates joy and togetherness. From cerebral to wildly energetic, the piece feels like a ritual that slowly transforms into a euphoric dance party. Creating the music for this was a joy. It brought me back to the nineties, when I was discovering electronic (dance) music. That feeling of wonder and discovery seemed an apt comparative to the sense of awe that Daniel and the dancers convey in ‘The Wonder Of It All’. Normally (if there is a ‘…

*2025 stock* Relatives Schoensein is a photo series by the German artist Signalstoerung, in which he explores the beauty of things, that are maybe not seen as beautiful by the majority of people. Part 2 of this series examines the philosophical question: Advertisement - information or manipulation? Advertisement is a form of communication that aims to inform and persuade people to buy a product or service. The main purpose of advertisements is to generate profits for businesses and increase thei…
2007 release ** Limited edition of 1000 hand-numbered copies in oversized cardboard sleeve. "Jarring but gorgeous, electronic but acoustic, Italian musician Gregorio Bardini offers up an unusual blend of folkish samples and instrumentation set to cascading IDM percussion and makes for a mysterious journey. Though some of the cultural references were lost on this listener, it feels heavy with purpose. “Ezra Pound in Mantua” sets the tone for the record with dirgy flutes and plucked strings, frami…
2003 release ** "Built around three previous Ware singles, the eleven tracks here stay uptempo. While not the first to explicitly craft a record around the concept of driving (or highways, or autobahns), Schmidt conjures up the sleek German design of today by hotwiring its primitive arcade heart and making a driving game out of it. "Quest for Tires" starts off like the Commodore 64's classic Night Driver game, all simple white dashes on a black screen before the bass and distorted patches shift…
2002 release ** “Lambent is one Akira Inagawa from Japan, currentely in Berlin. Akira started to play music while in art college in London, meeting the people from ‘Insine’ label and after moving to Berlin playing electronic music and being a hip-hop DJ. As Lambent he doesn’t use any computers, just samplers and synthesizers in a live approach. This is quite important to realize when you listen to this music, because once you know this, the music makes much more sense.”
**300 copies** Kaspi & Stride is a new project from Justin Tripp, best known as one half of the Georgia equation. Leanings has its origins in rigorous yet laid back studio sessions, dual personal practice sensibilities that seem to get at Tripp’s creative ethos as well as any descriptors might. The material here was born out of collaborative studio sessions with multi-instrumentalist Jimy Seitang (Conga Square / Stygian Stride) - the “Stride” of K&S. The music from these sessions has been rework…
2010 release ** "'Amity' is definitely the most accessible album in the discography of this project. After flirting with American Tympanic Audio, [haven] comes back to the Polish market. The fifth album of one of the most interesting projects on the Polish independent scene released on Zoharum - [haven]'s 'Amity'. The new album can be quite a challenge for the current [haven] fanbase. 'Amity' is a bold journey through different soundscapes. [haven] links different musical worlds: elements of amb…

Pulse 02 features brand new tracks by ASC & Joachim Spieth, in addition to a remix by Nitecord.
On her debut album for Past Inside The Present, Lela Amparo reaches beyond her accomplished ambient guitar work to create a sonic environment that incorporates a vast array of elements, including IDM and Trip-hop rhythms, sweeping orchestral arrangements, and understated, poetic vocals. Keep Your Soul Young is built on a confident rawness and worldliness, influenced by Amparo’s upbringing in the American Southwest, subsequent years of international travel, and a life-changing love that led to he…

2005 release ** "The glitch isn't going to go away. Despite occasional predictions by those in the electronic community that the musical devices of tiny clicks, pops and 'stuck CD' effects - pioneered by the likes of Autechre, Matmos, Fennesz, Raster-Noton and Oval - are just a passing trend, these techniques seem to have ensconced themselves as an established feature of the musical landscape. Perhaps one reason for the longevity of these software-driven effects is that they provide an extremel…
1999 release ** "Somewhere between Autechre and Haujobb lies Xingu Hill. If there were an industry award for sleeper of the year, Xingu Hill might just win with this delicious silicon tote of complicated electonic structures. With a scattered discography of scarce releases, Belgium native John Sellekaers manages to protrude from the woodwork on the increasingly notable Ant-Zen sublabel Hymen, for this beautifully composed 50 minute daydream. Packaged in a canvas wrap of exquisite artwar courtesy…
2007 release ** "The album starts out with some very slow tempo percussion sounds that are accompanied by synths that come and go and refuse to stick around long enough to develop into anything but further ambiance for the song. I have to point out that the percussion in this song reminds me somewhat of Coil, maybe I’m thinking “Black Light District” or some latter period works… I’m not sure exactly why but the resemblance (for me at least) is most definitely there. The next song starts out with…
