Club Imperiale
Named after a now-shuttered nightspot that overlooked the beach on Italy's picturesque Tuscan coast, Maxime Denuc's 'Club Imperiale' is a work of speculative historical fiction, a record that imagines a point of creative symbiosis between the Catholic church and the ecstatic dancefloors of the early '90s.
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.
Listening to the natu…
Con-Struct
The German pioneer of electronic music Conrad Schnitzler (1937-2011) amassed a vast archive of sounds for use in combination with each other in live performances. In 2011 the idea came up of con-structing new compositions, not remixes, from this material. The Con-Struct series was born. This release features con-structions by Baal & Mortimer who writes about it in the linernotes: It was exciting to break open existing material, peeling something out of the past and thus transgressing it and open…
12 Conversations
Noton is pleased to announce12 Conversations, a collaborative album by Ryuichi Sakamoto and Alva Noto to be released on 18 September 2026.
Seance
*200 copies limited edition* Ten years after "Il dipinto ucciso", Candor Chasma returns with "Seance". While the album comes full circle, revisiting the project's original fixations - the spirit world, stripped of any gothic overtone - it also signals a decisive shift in sonic language. Frameworks of abstract noise, fractured post-techno structures, asymmetric rhythms and heavily processed percussion, filters and saturation pushed to their limits: all shape five compositions poised between hypno…
November 89
The album ‘November 89’ comprises a selection of very early GAS tracks, some of which date back to the late 1980s. They were first released in 2008 as a CD insert in the art book ‘Wolfgang Voigt GAS’, published on Raster-Noton.
Just like the photographs in the book, these pieces are early precursors that would evolve in the ensuing years with the albums ‘Zauberberg’ and ‘Königsforst’ into a style-defining, audiovisual “Gesamtkunstwerk” (total work of art) comprising hypnotically focused forest i…
Hoffnung & Psyche (7")
Rare 2004 single with hand-made cover released in an edition of 315 numbered copies by Kernkrach with two tracks from an obscure 1981 cassette by NDW/d.i.y electronic project.
Off Off
*300 copies limited edition. Exact reproduction of the original folded screenprinted cover (when open dimensions are 69.7cm x 62.30 cm). Screenprinted innersleeves.* When Off Off came out around June 1984, one couldn’t speak of an independent music scene in Portugal. Warm Records’ vague existence didn’t have any impact and Dansa do Som’s inaugural release appeared only in December. 10 years after the revolution, after two IMF interventions, a lot of political instability (not to say turmoil, in …

Sekvensstyrd 1981 - 1986
*200 copies limited edition* 40 years after its creation, Moß Garten – Sekvensstyrd 1981–1986 arrives as a compelling double vinyl LP, diving deep into the early Swedish DIY electronic scene. Inspired by pioneers such as Kraftwerk, Cabaret Voltaire, John Foxx, and The Human League, Mikael Isaksson developed a distinct sound situated between minimal electronics, industrial, synth wave, and experimental sound art. At its core was the sequencer: pulsing, programmed structures forming the backbone o…
Nobody Knows this is Anywhere
*250 copies limited edition* As part of their 20th year celebrations Gnod grace us with the latest output from their ongoing R&D project. Operating as a stripped back two piece the raw energy and sonic power shines through across the two tracks that make up ‘Nobody Knows this is Anywhere’. ‘Catholic FM’ and ’Sunset 102’ are but a fraction extracted from a mammoth 2 day recording session at Gnod farm back in 2019. Recorded straight to cassette at the time and with minimal editing done at some poi…
Floating Frequencies / Intuitive Synthesis I
When Eleh's debut Floating Frequencies/Intuitive Synthesis I was originally released it was praised as a powerful piece of new electronic minimalism. Twenty years later the artist's legacy has grown while Eleh continues to hypnotize new listeners with time stopping music. Critics, fans and neurologists have praised the music of Eleh as aiding attention and focus while seeming to slow time. Eleh's slow change drones are a state of flow hypnotizing listeners into meditative focus. From the origina…
Murder Ballads (Incest Songs)
Incest Songs is the final chapter of the Murder Ballads trilogy, and its most fully realized expression. Where Drift and Passages explored the post-isolationist frame through voice and single instrument, this third volume dispenses with that approach entirely, opening instead onto a more labyrinthine sonic architecture - one built from overlapping, saturating, blurring voices, all of them Martyn Bates'. The decision feels both inevitable and quietly inspired. Bates' vocalizations unfold as layer…
Surfaces Of A Broken Marching Band
Originally released in 2008 on Ezekiel Honig’s own Anticipate Recordings, Surfaces of a Broken Marching Band finds the artist refining a compositional language rooted in the methodologies of musique concrete, ambient, and beat research. Working from a palette of environmental recordings, instrumental fragments, and soft electronic treatments, Honig pushes the source material into an array of sympathetic forms ranging from pillow-soft, lowercase ambient to diffuse downtempo and minimal house. For…
Kein Abschied
44 years after its original release, one of the most idiosyncratic DIY minimal electronics / synth / new wave records of the early ’80s returns: the legendary 7” by German group Deutsche Schäferhunde (engl. German shepherds)—now remastered and reissued for the first time as a one-sided 12” on Anna Logue Records. Recorded in the winter of 1981/82 between rehearsal space, provincial disco and bar nights, and a humble four-track setup, these tracks capture the raw spirit of a generation that simply…
To Those Lost in the Woods
*100 copies limited edition* A tense musical and poetic journey through the night from Uhushuhu and Prorok. Who dwells in this world? Who gradually becomes our constant companion here? Grass, sand; a hand, a candle; wool, a fish; fire, a wave; moss, the Moon; grass, a river; ice, snow; clouds, stones – hypnotic images of a lullaby whispered to a traveler lost in a stream of sound. However, paraphrasing a well-known proverb, it is impossible to put to sleep someone who is already asleep.
Paradessence
Paradessence, Visible Cloaks’ third full length, is a work of emergence and illusion. The album’s fourteen songs shift, heave, and shimmer against a faintly luminous backdrop of night, a cavernous space shaped by sparse hyperreal representations of the natural world. The arrangements are simultaneously grandiose and fragile, both an inversion and culmination of what came before and as adventurous as anything they’ve produced so far.Since transforming from Cloaks to Visible Cloaks in 2014, Spence…
Capri
*200 copies limited edition* Originally released in 2009, Capri is a concept album composed of fragmented vignettes, lost minutes and scenes from an idyllic imagining. A collection of brief moments, suspended shimmers, and frail settings, Capri was never meant to be more than its own thin veneer; a naked and subtle wash of saturated and semi-transparent colors, rolling as gently as ocean waves against rocky beaches, of fading afternoon sunlight, of momentary experience. Peaceful yet isolated, qu…
Mauve Sideshow (CD)
1991 first edition on Refraction Sound of the CD compiling selected tracks form the first two very rare albums of mysterious and floating psychedelic electroacoustic music with enchanting female vocals by the wondeful Dusty Lee project after the Kangaroo Kourt.
