Vox Humana (Inventing Forgotten Languages)
2015 release ** Featuring: Zuriñe F Gerenabarrena, Alberto Prezzati, Alice Calm, Yuka Nagamatsu, Martina Claussen, Livia Giovaninetti, Sergey Suhovik, Yang Siyu."To use the terminology of the neuroscientist Steven Brown, who has made a particular study of music, both music and language involve a limited repertoire of discrete building blocks, organised into phrases and higher-order structures using combinatorial rules. Put simply, both organise individual acoustic elements using a kind of gramma…
Cooks & Devils
2009 release ** "„Cooks & Devils“, a single track culled from a performance at the Kunstverein Göttingen in Summer of last year, shows just how far Ignaz Schick has come. The „Snake Figure Arkestra“, the latest formation to flow from Schick's fantastical fluidum, is centered around an enduring partnership with Marcel Türkowsky but, needless to say, again open to external input and to debate, discussion and critical discourse: The Arkestra has already joined forces with Drone-Surrealist Christop…
Ulterior
2016 release ** "Matschulat’s 1st album explores the dynamics between our inner-selves and our social-existential conditions as human beings through the themes of restraint, dissociation, loneliness and vulnerability. Mainly using old and new recordings, synthesizers and having sampled variations of his own screaming voice, Matschulat offers a violent and anxious ride through his own personal notions of our fragile and circumstantial existence. Abrasive and poetic, this dramatic album demonstrat…

Manhattan [Linear, Circular, Lateral]
2004 release (light storage wear) ** "Guy De Bièvre, a Belgian composer and guitarist, worked in the urban environment of New York until he focused on a particular sound frequency (60 Hz), then isolated it and assembled it in the various sequences that make up this portrait of Manhattan. The various compositions go to `simulate` different auditory approaches: linear - simulation of a walk on Broadway, approximately from 123rd Street to Battery Park; circular - simulation of listening from the to…
Ice Skating Elephants
2007 release ** "Cones features Marcel Turkowsky and Ulf Schutte both members of Datashock and involved in other projects/labels like Aosuke, Tapetektoniks, UUHUU, Hui Tales Collection, Leo Mars and more. Their "Iceskating Elephants" shows four different cosmic soundtravels taken from their March Recording Sessions. When they are not parading into burlesque musicalia of beautyful underwater storiedrones read in muddy submarines floating to Kurosawa´s spiderwebcastle, they are visiting more concr…
Honey For The Ants
Honey for the Ants completes an ‘alchemical trilogy’, after The Funnel and Syphon. These albums are informed by mystical and gnostic texts, celebrating the weird, unhinged and occasionally beautiful.
In this forthcoming album the tonalities have shifted from mediaeval and renaissance to modernist dissonances. New singers and instrumentalists contribute to an emotional and textural richness achieved in a collaborative process. Distant musical periods, real and fictitious, are nonchalantly interwo…
O Comme Icare
1992 release ** "Eric La Casa and Sylvie Larouche's first album of lush, cinematic ambience and unsettling atmosphere from 1992. La Casa's sense of drama and timing might sound familiar to those who know his (entirely excellent) later work with field recordings."
Grains Of Voices
2025 stock The idea of Grains of Voices was born when Åke Parmerud was commissioned to write a work for the Swedish Radio. A journey around the world, recording the different inflections of the human voice then followed and the material was processed in the studio to make this electro-acoustic composition.
Grains of Voices is an electro-acoustic mix, a collage of voices from all over the world – singing, talking and shouting. The work was premiered in the Dag Hammarskjöld auditorium, in the UN…
Failed State Of Mind
2010 release ** "Jazkamer’s “Failed State of Mind” CD offers up nine tracks each clocking in at exactly 3:20 a piece, recorded between 2008-2011, across three different countries (Norway, Agrentina, and Vietnam – all couldn’t be more different), and collaged together to a cohesive yet disjointed album of mellow, weird ambient noise.The album reaches from field recordings of birdsong to beautifully amorphous feedback compositions, to up-tempo live drums meandering around quietly in the background…

2007 release ** Excellent electro-acoustic music compilation. Works composed in 1974, 1974/75, 1978 & 1974.
Parasite
2009 release ** "The works of Antanas Kučinskas collected on the album "Parasite" are based on the method of re-composition, i.e. processing material with a strong historical and stylistic identity using techniques that are completely "alien" to him. I am talking in particular about sampling, loops and scratches, which make up the aesthetics that Kučinskas himself called "parasitic music". I am an omnivorous parasite: my works feed on existing music and develop at its expense until the complete …
Variations Pour Une Porte Et Un Soupir / Voile D'Orphée
1994 release ** "A beautiful batch of spare electronics from this mad French genius! Titled "Variations Between A Door & A Sigh" – the piece is exactly that. One track will evoke strange creaking door sounds, the next will have a breathy, sigh-like quality – and then the whole thing starts all over again. Maddening, but wonderful in its own way! "
La Didone Abbandonata I 5. Studie I Streichquartett I Umbau 2 I Tragicomedia
2012 release ** "Michael Hirsch began to work as a composer in 1976, with occasional interruptions for theatre engagements. In addition to instrumental music and music theatre, the genre of musique concrète is an important part of his compositional oeuvre as is illustrated impressively by the works recorded on this CD. “La Didone abbandonata” is based on the opera seria text of the same name by Pietro Metastasio from 1724. For his version Hirsch reduced the number of the dramatis personae to the…
Drilling Holes In The Wall
2007 release ** "The sounds on Drilling derive mostly from modified toy synthesizers, hooked to a variety of electronic devices such as a film projector or a lamination machine. With these, he constructs pieces that move freely between the worlds of sound art and improvised music. Montgomery works along paths determined by the instruments and appliances he uses, but the overall structure is open. Deliberate variations in density and texture do occur as do climaxes, but the pieces often take unex…

Klaipėda
*200 copies* Klaipėda is located in the west of Lithuania, right on the shores of the Baltic Sea. I lived there from September 2011 until July 2012 and during those months I was regularly recording in the city and the surrounding rural areas. I got very fond of these locations and all the sounds I recorded are very significant and dear in my memory. Throughout the changes of the seasons, varying between human-made and industrial to “natural” sounds caused by birds, water, wind or plants, the aco…
