Lament & Rejoice
**Edition of 60 copies ** Lament & Rejoice is a debut album by a Finnish experimental musician Juho Toivonen. Dubbed on to a 30-year old Hardcore Punk tape found from Toivonen`s rehersal room in Pori, the hissing album experiments with continuous sound created either with clarinet, viola, synthesizer and chants - or just with piano and synthesizer. In these two pieces you`ll find sounds and energies being emancipated for the purpose of unity.
The Wind of Things
In process of stocking, totally sold-out at source * Limited Edition Sea-Haze Blue Vinyl * Matthew Sage is about seeing the big picture, but focused through the most intimate and personal lens possible. Best exemplified on the gauzy, cartographical opus 'A Singular Continent', as well as his impulsively meditative Geographic North debut 'Catch a Blessing', Sage’s imagination yields fully realized sonic suites to worlds both imaginary and referential to his own. Now, the Chicago-based composer, p…

Meditation
Kelan Phil Cohran's ('Kelan' is an honorific meaning 'holy scripture' bestowed on him by Chinese Muslims during a visit to China) Meditation was recorded at Atiba Johnson's Chicago studio in 1996, but has circulated only privately until now, with its long-awaited official release on Katalyst.

If You Do
Megan Alice Clune's If You Do is a work of restrained ecstasy. Drawing on her interests in extended minimalist traditions, especially explorations into variable tunings featured in the works orbiting those involved in the Theatre Of Eternal Music, Clune devises a record of constant deepening. Each piece unfolds into the next, and whilst existing individually, they also operate as a collected mass of sound. If You Do is a constant, almost stream of consciousness, flow of voice, drones, keyboards …
In Light Of Blues
Will Long's work as Celer traverses a nebulous and morphing galaxy of sound that centers around textured ambience and extended durational pieces. A long-time resident in Tokyo, his work explores the way in which sound can operate in an evolving atmosphere, coalescing with everything, and everyone, around it. With In Light Of Blues, Long pivots away from long-form works to create a series of vignettes that capture the essence of his aesthetics interests. The record condenses and refines his compo…

The Black Stone – Music For Lovecraftian Summonings
Someone claims that H.P. Lovecraft did not like music. He may have suffered from undiagnosed musical anhedonia, a disorder where a person gleans no pleasure from music or sound. The first story that comes to mind when one thinks of music in the “Lovecraft universe” is The Music of Erich Zann (1921). The music in The Music of Erich Zahn, is the kind of frenetic, and frightening music he had always experienced: [...] It would be useless to describe Erich Zann's music on that horrible night. It was…
