Laguna Cibernetica
In process of stocking **Edition of 100** Recorded and assembled 2015-2020 by William Selman and mastered by Stephan Mathieu. Laguna Cibernetica is a psychogeographical map of the industrial maritime city. It wanders through the streets, stumbling its way through the glass-blowing factories, the office buildings of upper management, the canal-side cafes - all with the inescapable lapping sounds of the lagoon in earshot. It captures the psychic terrain as well as the acoustic - the unease and exp…
The Life Of Lines
In process of stocking **Edition of 100** Recorded and assembled 2015-2020 by William Selman and mastered by Stephan Mathieu. There are lines. Lines move, expand, contract, intersect, diverge. Lines have clear trajectories and unexpected turns. As listeners bound by linear time on a spatial plane of lines, our perception and experience as listeners is lines. William Selman’s inaugural release on his new label Critique of Everyday Life cofounded with Chris Miller (aka Gunnar Haslam) draws on the…
Les Réalités Cannibales
Love CD by Fusiller allows an intimate exploration of his very own musical language presented through his crafted electronic instruments, skills coming form his engineering background. This coupled material and theoretic control, leads to unique meaning structures where haunting evocations join spectral contrasts in a very pure form, evenly poor and massive, inherited from industrial and electroacoustic music.
Elevation
** Edition of 300. White vinyl in screenprinted pvc sleeve ** Zaumne's new album titled Élévation is a multifaceted yet subtle work, an abstract collage that is equally entrancing and immersive. Quoting passages from Baudelaire’s “Flowers of Evil”, the Polish musician promises to elevate the soul and consciousness “Beyond the sun / Beyond the ether”. Yet simultaneously, the artist wants us to stay where we are and focus on the immediate surroundings in search of our personal attachment to the wo…
Essential Anatomies
**2021 Stock** After a break in recording of nearly fourteen years, the improvising duo of Colin Andrew Sheffield (samples, processing) and James Eck Rippie (turntables, samples, processing) returns with "Essential Anatomies," comprising two substantial new pieces of evocation.
Working exclusively with samples, Sheffield and Rippie sculpt primarily with commercial recordings to turn aspects of plunderphonics and electronic sound art into a form of abstract beauty. Their work together has always …
First Thus
**2021 Stock** First Thus is a phrase used by book sellers, publishers, collectors, etc. to describe a book which may be considered a first edition and/or first printing, but which has been available previously in a slightly different form. A true first edition is the original, first printing of a given book, while a first thus is the first printing of a new version of that book. This classification can come about for any number of reasons, though often times it has to do with a new translation …

Bijou
A subtle, moody, rich and wide-ranging work, in which atmosphere, emotion and dramaturgy lead the ear far beyond music into a world of hints, evocations, anticipation and association and, in passing, reveal a complex metonymic language that, at a deep level, invokes that mostly unconscious lexicon of sound we have all absorbed collectively and subliminally in the course of a century of movie-going, television viewing, documentary recording and electroacoustic experimentation. Once sounds have be…
