De/Still
* 8 panel book insert. Jewel Case. * De/Still is a musical score for photography. Composer/musician Nathan Moody was asked by photographer TJ Norris to aurally interpret his “Urban Juxtapositions” series. The result is an eleven-movement audio work that boldly bridges the worlds of bricolage, musique concréte, electronic music, and acoustic drone into a unified sound-world. Rather than literally interpret each photograph as a visual score, Moody categorized the textures at play and created timbr…

An Anthology of Greek Experimental Electronic Music
**Double-CD version includes 20-page booklet. Sold out at source** An Anthology of Greek Experimental Electronic Music 1966-2016 aspires to map the heterogenous landscape of Greek experimental electronic music in all its contextual, sociopolitical, geographical and aesthetic disparity. With a single exception: it zeroes in on post-80s music. It comprises works of very different kinds by composers of all sorts of backgrounds that, still, can be thought of, as both "Greeks" and "experimentalists".…
Omamy
* Edition of 100. Comes with small 16 page booklet * In what is best described as “horror musique concrète”, Polish multidisciplinary artist and musician Samutek has composed a 47-minute album that emits a distinctive, hypnotic aura — intricately developed and mastered over the years. Ingrained with echoes of gongs, chimes, crickets, drones and a plethora of haunted sounds recorded and found, “Omamy” (Polish for “Hallucinations”) is the soundtrack of a phantasmagoric spiral, summoning an unceasi…
Dedans / Dehors
* 2020 Stock. Edition of 200. * As with Luc Ferrari, it is an assemblage of recorded sequences in which we recognize a succession of various events and we reconstruct in our imaginary a possible narrative that may have been at the origin of these sounds. This is not the sound landscape (Soundscape or Field recording) whose neutrality of the author must be one of the characteristics. It is not reportage. Above all, it involves the assembly, by montage and superposition, of sounds of different ori…
Smegma
**Original edition of 100. About 20 copies left from the original pressing** The only Russian release for legendary Smegma!
Gateway Summer Sound: Abstracted Animal and Other Sounds
**2020 stock** Ann McMillan did not record prolifically, but she was at the vanguard of electronic composition in New York in the 1970s. A student of groundbreaking composer Edgard Varèse, McMillan’s primary medium was magnetic tape, which she manipulated to create surreal soundscapes. On Gateway Summer Sounds, her debut album released on Folkways in 1979 and recorded at the legendary Princeton-Columbia Electronic Music Center, she sources sounds from the natural world – frogs, insects, field re…
To Kill a Sunrise and La Ruche
**2020 stock** Turkish-born musician and composer Ilhan Mimaroglu worked extensively with electronic (tape) music. The two programmatic pieces paired here are "To Kill a Sunrise," a dirge subtitled "Requiem for Those Shot in the Back" with words borrowed from a poem by Guatemalan guerilla poet Marco Antonio Flores, composed in Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center (New-York, N.Y., 1974). And "La Ruche" composed at Groupe de Recherches Musicales (Paris, France, 1968) an experiment of reminis…
Plateforme # 3
**In process of stocking** After two albums on Baskaru with Felix Kubin, Lawrence English, Gianluca Becuzzi (2014) and later Francisco López, Tom Recchion, Christian Zanési (2016), Laurent Perrier continues his Plateforme series by inviting French musician David Fenech. Plateforme is a concept, a restrictive framework Perrier imposed on himself: to create an electronic music piece using solely a set of sound recordings provided by a "collaborator". “I simply asked the musicians to send me raw st…
Cross the Desert
**200 copies** Looking for the desert, awaiting abandonment, marrying detachment: essential steps for those who ardently want new dawns and new lands to get lost in. First of all losing the common coordinates, the secure footholds, the consolidated certainties, forgetting scores, borders and judgments. A laying down, on the one hand, of the external conventions in order to make room and give light to the unexpected, to what pulsates underground, unheard. On the other hand, a putting aside of one…
Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide CD
"Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide" is an immersive, languid realm, filled with elegant, poetic beauty, that bristle with unknown elements and the lingering potential of danger. Andrea Marutti and Carlo Giordani have created an album that simultaneously drowns the ear and fortifies it with breaths of fresh air. A remarkably sensitive reminder of the creative potentialities that rest at the heart of electroacoustic, concrete, and field recording based musics, doubling as a vision of their …
Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide (MiniCDr 3")
"This aquatic collaboration between these two italian artists (the ambient master and the field recordist) is the first part of a large body of work that will be fully released sooner or later..." - Jean-Marc Boucher"[...] Large chunks of field recordings are processed and, together with those who still have a more natural feeling, combined into a large, twenty-two-minute soundscape of drips, splashes and the uber-drone of what sounds like a submarine engine humming in the back. It is something …
Mustikoita Ja Kissankelloja
**200 copies** From the crystalline sources of the stony rivers through the waves of 5G networks to the blood stream of yellow plasma. Mustikoita ja kissankelloja is like a chaotic sonic sedimentation of new weird Finland music revitalised and flowing through different waste channels, protected habitats and clogged veins. You can scan the microview and listen to the pointillistic murmur on a petri dish or try to stalk the tectonic movements.Do you remember the pure electronic ocean of the Pacifi…
Factitious Airs
Can a music made with the modern tools of digital music and contemporary production sound eerily as if created with the same equipment that Stockhausen, Henri and Berio all availed themselves of in the radio studios of the '50s and '60s – and yet sound bright and fresh to the ears of today's listeners? Robert Worby shows us how, with "Factitious Airs". — Carl Stone
