Imprint
Best known for his work for legendary Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul (he even designed the enigmatic “bang” in 2021’s labyrinthine ‘Memoria’), Japan’s Koichi Shimizu has been honing a unique musical language since the early ‘90s, where some of his earliest material can be found on a split LP with Yoshiteru Himuro via once-iconic imprint Worm Interface (itself home to music from Autechre side-line Gescom). ‘Imprint’, was initially released quietly back in 2021 and has been remastered for…

Revenge Of The Selfish Shellfish
Tip! *First time on vinyl!* Originally released by Tursa (UK) in 1992, Revenge of the Selfish Shellfish was the first, full-length collaboration between Steven Stapleton and Tony Wakeford. Consisting of an eerie, yet beautiful, combination of songs and surreal locales, Shellfish remains a unique landmark with qualities not easily found in either Nurse With Wound or Sol Invictus discography. Evoking a strong sense of narrative, such as Wakeford's vocals on Lucifer Before Sunrise and the perpetual…
Dream Autopsy
* 300 copies limited edition * Described as sublime tape music (despite not being released on cassette), Drifting is a transatlantic collaboration between Julia Bjernelind (Amateur Hour), Weston Czerkies (Form Hunter) and Dan Johansson (Sewer Election). A potent trialectic between whom we've never heard a collaboration before, their debut Dream Autopsy certainly sounds like just that; a picking-apart of both manifest and latent dream content in waking sonic life. The "dreaminess" of the album is…

Your Music Encountered in a Dream
Remember hearing music while dreaming, fully confident that you’ll be able to reconstruct it once awake? Music that, as it turns out, you were the sole witness. In retrospect, why ruin the experience by something so vulgar as hearing it a second time, much less having to share it? We don’t mean to alarm you, but David Grubbs and Liam Keenan have returned from the dark side of the pillow bearing Your Music Encountered in a Dream.

Illuminations

Notes are introduced to the players on animated staves, slowly fading into view and then away again. Using opacity as dynamic, the musicians perform the animated staves as slow loops, with motives and contra…

Slow Motion Summer
*120 copies limited edition.* A spell to slow down time, a drawing back of the veil between worlds, the way that a song also contains multitudes. Slow Motion Summer is a record fixated, both metaphorically and literally, on time. It draws on the way we experience time, weaving strands of recorded sound stretched and spun at a host of different speeds to both alter and extend our perception of the moment that's swirling around us. It's also a record obsessed with the secret world, with the infini…
