The Persistence Of Memory (Early Tapes 1990-1993)
Palo Alto is a French group formed in Paris, France in 1989 by Jacques Barbéri, Denis Frajerman, Philippe Masson and Philippe Perreaudin. In their early interviews the group insisted on their musical filiation with Tuxedomoon, and on drawing their inspiration from Made to Measure, a Crammed Discs label. They would later make explicit their interest in bands such as Art Zoyd, The Legendary Pink Dots, Coil, The Residents, Can or Cabaret Voltaire. Science fiction in all its forms is a leitmotiv in …
Låt Oss Vada Genom All Ängslan Tillsammans
Enhet for Fri Musik's “Låt Oss Vada Genom All Ängslan Tillsammans” stands as one of their most evocative works, weaving delicate melodies, tape hiss, spoken word, and dreamlike atmospheres into a truly unique listening experience. This is a perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in their singular universe and own an essential piece of modern experimental music history.
One (CDr)
2010 release ** "Jim Campbell (aka the preterite) is a turntapelist, for lack of a better term. Inspired by proponents of experimental work with vinyl, early tape and concrete music, Cagean chance practices and both cosmic and free music, the Berlin-based American artist built a one-of-a-kind instrument out of relics of the tape age, his “cassette scratch orchestra”, composed of cast-off phrase trainers, original effects, a re-purposed and prepared analog cassette multitracker and piles of found…
IIN
2012 release ** "Darius Ciuta, Lithuanian architect, sound artist, born 1966, is an artist that definitely can not be pigeonholed for the marketing purposes of narrative and aesthetic unidrectional coherence, although if you stand between and shuffle through his work you will find a labyrinth of communicating vessels. His works explore continuously new alphabets spectrums, building an intricate vocabulary of frequencies and densities as translations and transformations (exchange between sound a…
Camouflage Heart
* Clear vinyl edition. Edition of 500 * Cindytalk is the mercurial, expressionist outlet of Scottish artist Cinder. An evolution of her early 1980s Edinburgh-based punk band The Freeze, she launched the project upon moving to London, inspired by the crossroads of exploratory UK post-punk and early European industrial. Her work thrives on chance and transformation, collaging elements of noise, balladry, soundtrack, catharsis, and improvisation. After a series of celebrated albums for the Midnigh…
Edge Games
Although Berlin-based musical seekers Jules Reidy and Sam Dunscombe are friends who’ve worked together in numerous contexts over the last decade or so, Edge Games is their first, long overdue collaborative album. Over two expansive, mind-bending excursions the former’s microtonal guitar lines are woven into a gorgeously unstable mass of synthesis, field recordings, and clarinet produced by the latter, but it’s important to note that the recording process was deeply collaborative, with a rigorous…
Ambulance
Holy Tongue (Valentina Magaletti, Al Wootton & Susumu Mukai) follow up their critically acclaimed album with a two track 7” on Trule. On the A Side ‘Ambulance Dub’ creeps in like John Carpenter at Firehouse. The B Side ‘The Bigger Tutti’ goes full on Steppers punk. They are all snakes now.
Wüste
2010 release ** "Former Mayhem front man Maniac, whose band Skitliv has proved to be a surprising departure from the Black Metal genre for which he was best known for over 20 years, has formed a side-project with Vivian Slaughter, bass player/vocalist with the Japanese all-girl band Gallhammer, Skitliv's guitarist Ingvar Magnusson and experimentalist Andrew Liles (Nurse With Wound). Unlike Skitliv, which is a noise/doom amalgam, with Maniacs vocals still firmly rooted in Black Metal, Sehnsucht i…
Music From Hi-Fi Sessions
2005 release ** Improvised music sessions, made using 4 custom turntables, edit scratched vinyls played in forced locked grooves, hand made phonograph, microphone, delay pedal, environmental feedback, mixer. Recording and mastering on PC. All Tracks sounds exactly as it was recorded.
Hanging By A Fan Over Wet Cement
*2025 stock* "Hanging by a Fan Over Wet Cement is the music of listening after listening, when water runs relative to the sound of your own footsteps, and you lean over the resonating chamber of a trashcan like it’s a campfire, then fill it with wheezy laughter. Only, the steel mesh of Hair Clinic/Max Nordile’s field microphone is all mangled and bludgeoned, and the field extends into his home garage. The same contact-foraging quality of attention goes into the beginner’s brain improvisations, w…
Redefines The Meter
*2025 stock* Recorded live in Studio 4, National Danish Radio 2007 by Sune TB Nielsen. Mixing by TR Kirstein & Sune TB Nielsen. Levels, ins / outs / ups / downs and general music control by Gæoudjiparl assisted by Guido Zen and Tordis Berstrand Mastered and cut to vinyl by Lupo & Gæoudjiparl, D&M Berlin 2008 Cover by Leif Elggren
Peel Session
2025 stock A live band session from their Succour album period, including Rough For Radio and Phazemaze which never appeared on any other release. Warp Records release WXAXRXP Sessions featuring ten specially selected sessions recorded for radio from across the history of the label, from the very early days right up to the WXAXRXP x NTS weekend. In the age of immediate, unelected, often low-quality rips of anything that is broadcast, these releases present each session in the highest quality ado…
Seefeel
2025 stock Warp's first ever 'guitar-playing' signing make a welcome return with this, their self-titled, second album for the label. Applying less of their signature 'shoegaze' aesthetic, the addition of Boredoms drummer E-da and electronic musician Shigeru Ishihara in the line-up, has given this album much more of a palpable feel than earlier releases on Warp and Too Pure. An invigorating return.
Everything Squared
After critically acclaimed reissues of their mid-90s material, Seefeel return with their first new music since 2011. Everything Squared is a one-off 6-track mini-album which presents a contemporary evolution of their trademark sound. Mainly composed and performed by the core duo of Mark Clifford and Sarah Peacock, with bass on two tracks from Shigeru Ishihara.
Mastered by Berlin-based engineer Stefan Betke aka Pole at Scape Mastering, and housed in a sleeve designed by Ian Anderson at The Design…
Euterpe Sequence
1998 release ** "Second release by Wales based duo. 17th century inspired ambient sound that varies from droning transcendental stillness to guitar and effects noisescapes bordering on the works of Merzbow and Total."
The Haunting Triptych
2010 release ** "Truly intriguing is the fusion of intent between Pietro Riparbelli (K11, Radical Matters) and Philippe Petit (Bip_HOp, Strings of Consciousness) who develop three pieces of menacing and dense dark ambient that bring to mind the best releases by Lustmord and Nurse With Wound. As mentioned, "The Haunting Triptych" is divided into three parts and each of them appears as a work plan interlocked with the others but arranged on a different angle. "Residual Spookiness" has the merit of…
Serpentement
2025 stock ** "The solitary project of Thomas Bonvalet initially focused on the nylon string guitar, taking short, dynamic and abrupt forms and limiting itself exclusively to the acoustic possibilities of the instrument. A radical posture, it constantly threatened to put itself at an impasse, seeing itself forced into metamorphosis and movement. The instrument thus became less and less identifiable. At the periphery it absorbed the sound of objects (metronome, tuning forks...) deviating from the…
Introduction Of "Blue Of Noon"
2010 release ** "The Polish MonotypeRec has become the breeding ground for applied music. Recently, one interesting experimental release after another has been rolling off the press. Some elusive and incomprehensibly intriguing and others within the slightly more common frameworks. The first category includes the new collaboration between Olga Magieres and Tetsuo Furudate. Olga Magieres was born in Russia in 1955, but has lived in Denmark since 1971. Here she became a classically trained pianist…
