Underloop
After following Luke Blair's work for approaching two decades from his 2007 debut as Lukid on Actress' Werk Discs, we're humbled to present a new album on Death Is Not The End. Following relatively hot on the heels of 2023's Tilt (his first in 11 years, not counting his work with Jackson Bailey under the Rezzett guise) Underloop brings Blair's innate knack for building loops and sound structures further to the surface, while allowing his ear for emotional expression to be dialled up a notch.

Muslimlahore
A powerful new archival release from the legendary experimental project Muslimgauze, titled Muslimlahore, is now available worldwide via Bandcamp. This album continues the ongoing posthumous excavation of Bryn Jones’ vast and politically charged body of work, offering listeners a fresh immersion into his unique blend of ethnic electronica, dub, and tape-based soundscapes.
Muslimlahore presents a suite of tracks that reflect Muslimgauze’s enduring fascination with South Asian and Islamic themes, …
Assume Intimacy
Shattered, I began to turn to the core. The swirling ease that is shedding its skin to remember me; In my deepest, I always assumed the intimate. Dawning in me gently and unaltered I can feel you, you unnamed. Inward, my beloved—are you the world? Can you touch me with your quiet?
Me, looking through you; you, nesting in me.
Naturally, you place your melody in the shell of my ear. Ever listening, I find myself playing the strings of your instrument that bodies my imagination.
Come closer, my …

Home
“rat” is an electronic project born from the gutters of Brussels in 2024 by long-standing collaborators “neither” and “Milius.” After 15 years of hidden experiments they have been assembling a sonic language where glitch, ritualised circuitry and spectral noise merge. Their debut release "home" (Futura Resistenza) unfolds as a labyrinth of disjointed rhythms, haunted textures and fleeting moments that feel slightly out of time. Very little is known. All you can do is listen.
Live At The Melkweg 25.9.87
100 copies. C60 cassette with improved master and fullcolor print on the cassette but original printwork. Los Angeles, September 1987. Savage Republic are in the middle of their first European tour when they land at Amsterdam's legendary Melkweg. What gets captured on eight-track tape that night is pure alchemy: tribal post-punk, cosmic surf, oil drum industrial and guitars droning like desert prayers.
Founded in 1981 by Bruce Licher and Mark Erskine in the underground parking garages of UCLA - …

Keyboard Suite II
Suite II in the series expands upon their established pallet, integrating more field recordings and studio processing to their dulcet keyboard melodies. As a storm approaches from the distance - keyboards saturated by tape into distortion, bursts of noise from idiosyncratic electronics, aleatoric stuttering - MARV grants us an album’s worth of sonic sublimation.
Most Significant Beat
Sunny Crypt reaches double digits on their release catalogue with a fully remastered new edition of the now sought after debut EP from Most Significant Beat.
M.S.B. is an electronic music project active since the early 90s, formed by Maurizio Martinucci and Saverio Evangelista; their first record - originally released by Marco Passarani’s Nature Records in 1994 - is a masterclass in hypnotic patterns, pulsating rhythms and mind-bending leftfield techno. While “Heart Thinks Wide” and “A Flux To F…
Computer Series Last Run
Tip! French producer and composer Synalegg is back to OOH-sounds with the startling second (and final) installment of his inventive Computer Series. In an exploratory generative experiment, he developed a Pure Data patch capable of autonomous composition. Each activation produces unpredictable and immersive sonic environments that reflect the structural complexity of the patch. Synalegg aimed to subvert the tyranny of the composer, liberating music from the influence of individual taste and deli…
Innocent (LP)
Original US edition on FM of Gordon's 1986 eccentric first solo album featuring "Blue" Gene Tyranny, Arthur Russell, Ned Sublette, Peter Zummo, Richard Landry, and Tony Levin among others. With insert.
Polychromatic
After three years of silence, Harz returns with "polychromatic", his long-awaited second album.
Empire Des Pulsions
Founder of KUMP and Meth.O tapes, Lyon’s Marc-Étienne Guibert (AKA Gil.Barte) awakens his new Mert Seger moniker for a shadowy Plaque excursion. Nine slow burners strike from the murk with venomous precision.
Voyage
After a series of EPs and releases across different media (magazines, posters, digital), dTHEd returns with a new LP — their first in six years since the debut Hyperbeatz vol.1 on Boring Machines — titled VOYAGE (Vital Operations and Yearly Administration for Galactic Existence), a bold, genre-defying concept album chronicling humanity’s flight from an uninhabitable Earth to the deep unknown of interstellar exile. More than an album, VOYAGE is a full speculative fiction universe — part musical e…
Planet!
*100 copies limited edition* This is what Planet! does: it sends you, straight away, to a gray two-faced satellite. On a fictitious projectile that seems to have come out of that withered phantasmagoria of Georges Méliès: Le Voyage dans la lune, do you know it?
This collection of tracks grew out of a live score of Georges Méliès short films at the Philosophical Research Society in January 2024. Méliès films are bizarre and fantastical, at times delving into the macabre. But they are also comical…
Jams
*2025 stock* On two 12"s and over the course of a staggering 78 minutes, big things are happening on "Jams", Urban Homes' monumental sophomore album. The highly ambititous attempt at a certain history of dance music, a sweaty night on the dancefloor, an excursion into the fog...But one thing at a time: The 13 Jams go back to recordings of years of communal, midi- and hardware-based jam sessions which, over three years, were painstakingly discarded, refined, condensed, reconstructed and provided …
Tandoor Dog
*2025 Stock* "In 1998 Staalplaat and Muslimgauze were on a conquering spirit. Bryn Jones (1961-1999), the man behind Muslimgauze delivered new works, almost on a weekly basis and was more than happy to see them released straight away. Unlike others, Staalplaat was never shy to release larger works, lumping various works together, such as the 9CD “Box Of Silk & Dogs”. Allowing free reign in editing, the 4LP box set ‘Tandoori Dog”, contained the LP of the same name, which saw only eight out of the…
Mohammad Ali Jinnah
*2025 Stock* "Unsurprisingly for an artist as prolific and strident as Bryn Jones was, the flood of material he sent to labels and compatriots was not always carefully categorized. Also, sometimes he would be so eager to release material that if things didn’t happen fast enough he’d just send in another tape. And that circumstance is how you wind up with a fascinating oddity like Mohammad Ali Jinnah.Staalplaat has previously released, in 2002, the Muslimgauze album Sarin Israel Nes Ziona. While …
Jerusalaam
*2025 Stock* Jerusalaam plus the two extra tracks make up unused material from the Return of Black September sessions. The contrast, even for someone with as wide a range as Muslimgauze had, is stunning. The original Jerusalaam fits in with much of Bryn Jones’ classic work, with a heavy emphasis on hand percussion, bass-heavy distortion, sharply clipped loops, and the seething his of static. The two otherwise unnamed Return of Black September tracks, however, follow that album in taking a much m…
