Three long-form compositions that peer through a glimmering aperature into diaphanous realms of textural experiences: “What are the pros and cons of being lost in a thought?”
*300 copies limited edition* Twenty-five years after its original release, Markus Guentner's debut album In Moll returns in a special anniversary reissue on Black Knoll Editions, reaffirming its place as one of the defining ambient recordings of the early 21st century.
Released in 2001 during the formative years of Kompakt's influential Pop Ambient series, In Moll emerged from a period of rapid transformation in electronic music. New technologies, expanding digital networks, and shifting creativ…
In The Juniper Tree, an interrelationship between the ethereal and terrestrial seems to cloak the ever-present Icelandic landscape. The film, written and directed by Nietzchka Keene in 1986 and released in 1990, is disbelieving of binaries such as life and death, natural and supernatural, stillness and unrest. It is perhaps best known as the genesis point for Björk’s career as an actor, but in its compelling feminist retelling of the Brothers Grimm story of the same name it recasts tropes of wit…
In an age that demands hyper acceleration, kinetic flashes and byte voracity, Blak Saagan sticks out like a sore thumb with a sprawling body of work that requires attention and unlocks profound symbols and meaning with every passage. After a 5 year gap, the Venetian composer returns with his most personal and openly political statement yet, ‘Un Sequestro Lungo 10.000 Anni’, a staggering 108 minute triple album soundtracking a dystopian city through flashes of futuristic fourth world visions, war…
Quiet, from the Latin quies, evokes a state of being still. In its verb form, quiet means to clear so that something can gradually come into focus. Kind Stranger by Amedeo Cappelletti is where quiet materializes in a more transient, even foreign, way. Each track takes a step back from noise, borne out of a slow return to music, a different pace, and a familiar place left behind for years. Kind Stranger, released on Aurora Edition on July 24th, is about the strangeness of a return. Cappelletti's …
In the wake of the acclaimed Inland See, the on-growing analog ecosystem being animated for ten albums now by Bitchin Bajas boasts new high energy views. “Isle Peaks” speaks of directions in beats of time, weather and the heart to wherever coast they found themselves when they got it all laid out. Sourced from Inland See sessions, these cuts were subjected to further edits and tweaks, with electroacoustic textures of sampled kalimba, field recordings, autoharp and EWI to activate and transport d…
*250 copies limited edition* "The origins of Aphelion trace back to 2021, when Jim Wilson of Voice of Eye proposed a collaboration with Thomas Dimuzio. The initial concept was to create a deep space musical project featuring modern Buchla and 1970s-era Korg synthesizers. Eventually, they approached throat singer Soriah to see if he would be interested in contributing his unique organic vocal techniques to complement their ethereal drones, providing an intriguing counterpoint.
This collaboration …
Nigerian ambient producer Ibukun Sunday returns with new full length Olúsín [Worshippers], combining West African rhythmic sensibility with deep ambient sonics for a study of faith and reverence that explores the inherent stillness in worship. The record, writes Sunday, “draws inspiration from African devotional traditions, blending percussion, vocal harmony, and ambient soundscapes to create ‘a soundtrack of praise,’ centering on the idea that faith has its own music: the drumbeat of hearts, th…
On Spoki, Ingus Bauskenieks cracks open his private sonic world: homemade electronics, odd pop instincts and spectral melodies that refuse consensus, turning “ghosts” into solitary songs built strictly on his own terms.
John Paul Bohon's Terlingua is teeming with electronic life, a record that quite literally synthesizes the veteran musician and engineer's tactile approach to sound and has resulted in a mind-expanding work possessing impossible warmth. Terlingua is equally reminiscent of the languid, electronics-focused psych of legendary forebears like Cluster and Can alongside the ecstatic sprawl of contemporaries like Bitchin Bajas and Kaitlin Aurelia Smith. Bohon constructs entire worlds on these seven trac…
On Closed For The Festival, MIDI Janitor turns childhood memories of a Donegal Christian commune into warped, luminous hauntology: junkyard beats, dream‑logic electronics and uncanny “thin places” where pastoral bliss slips into quietly sinister wonder.
London experimental spoken word and electronics duo BAG land on Phantom Limb with mesmerising new album This House is a Body, marrying visceral poetry with exploratory production to achieve beguiling, occasionally screwy and occasionally dreamy sonics. “This album functions as a floor plan, a house in itself, collecting and containing the ecosystems of multiple rooms,” write BAG - Canadian artist and poet Jody DeSchutter and London producer Daniel Allison. “The roles we play can be defined by th…

Originally broadcast live as part of a rare short UK tour following the groundbreaking 1974 album Autobahn, this recording showcases the band's revolutionary sound at the peak of their early innovation.
This vinyl delivers the raw energy of Kraftwerk's minimalist synths, pulsing rhythms, and visionary stage presence in pristine audio fidelity…
1986 re-issue on Auricle of the 1984 cassette album of strange synthesizer music by the Freeman brothers, publishers of the excellent experimental music magazine Auricle .
Pétale Défoule opens with a bewildering piece of ’Intro'. Like the conductor of an orchestra, that she would have matrixed herself, the solo musician tunes all her sounds, raises her trombone, switches on all her instruments and friendly machines, calling all the creatures from the enchanted woods and wastelands to join in. Larsen touches everything so brilliantly, it’s stunning. Over the 8 tracks, we are transported by the heavy breaked bass of «Shygirl», the stepper accents of «Grosses bastos»…
Radioactivity was Kraftwerk's fifth full-lenght release and their first fully electronic album. It is a concept album centered around radioactive decay and radio communications. As such it boasts a few big theme anthems surrounded by shorter variations of those themes with interconnecting shorter pieces of electronic music, sounds, and digitized voices."Kraftwerk built upon the international success of Autobahn by expanding their conceptual concepts to an album-length exploration of radio waves …
