Purr
2006 release ** "All tracks on Purr have originally been composed for choreography.

The fact that he uses only minimal sources and sounds for his creations doesn t mean that the tracks are boring, predictable or easy. O…

2004 release ** "With his 8th solo album, French composer Laurent Pernice presents the pure electronic music, providing fresh views for academic avantgarde, from the different sides of microtonal music, reductive minimalism and other methods of digital decomposition.

By letting them run free, he realised that t…

Stage
2006 release ** "'Stage' is Steinbrüchel’s second full-length solo release on Line.

In Different Rooms
In early spring 2023, with the end of Covid-19 in China, MK helped produce this album for Rubey.

Of course, all production processes were completed at night; capturing the quiet atmosphere of traditional Eastern natu…

Dwell Time II
"Dwell Time II, the second installment in a trilogy of tape loop experiments from T.R. Jordan, begins fittingly with “Dynamics”, as a grainy, fluttering howl opens into voluminous spatial tones, while dulcet synthesizers swell between the stereo channels with melancholy, crystalline sweetness. Guiding his delicate world of sound through various technical and tactile manipulations, Jordan unearths sounds and textures that are otherwise not found in a natural state. Part of the fascination in work…

“Caelum (No. 2)” is led by a cycle of breath…
