Eterno Retorno
* Edition of 60 * Born out of an unconditional love for the sound of the organ, sound artist Druuna Jaguar pieced together his recent endeavor, Eterno Retorno, through an obsessive urge to capture the structural depth of the historic Hammond organ. Treating the organ more like a synthesizer, while pushing the instrument to its tonal limits, Druuna Jaguar gracefully extracts hidden resonances and subtle nuances from the constant flux buried within these long sustained tones, penetrating deep with…
Spring Stories
*In process of stocking. 200 copies limited release* Deprived of sanity, Paul Régimbeau aka Mondkopf found new territories of expression with »Spring Stories«, a collection of post-rapture moods full of glorious chaos, ready to absorb and re-ignite all that is worn.
As a phoenix raising from the ashes, »Spring Stories« captures the earth in full bloom. Darkness & Insanity looses it´s grips as the roots and fresh leaves creates a slow dance towards the sun. Similarly sine-wave drones move around …

Grid Ravage
‘Grid Ravage’s debut album for Dropa Disc sounds organic, just like their live performances, with the music being born on the spot. The tight drumming of Louis Evrard (Ottla), the razor-sharp cello of Gino Coomans (Sheldon Siegel) and the permeating electronics of Yves De Mey naturally flow into each other. The result is a strikingly versatile and accessible record, on which the tension is built up in every track, until it’s not clear anymore who’s being followed around by whom. In this way, th…
Schoon Donker
Schoon Donker is Marceau Boré first solo album under his real name. Before known as Piano Chat, a solo pop noise project, the french musician has been commissioned to compose a film score for a documentary film by Katrien Feyaerts, Schoon Donker. The film is about two men and alot of pigeons. One of the men is a famous and silent pigeon-fancier, the other is the director's father. As the pigeons come and go, both men stay stuck in their lives.
Marceau Boré chose to play the saxophone, an instrum…
Red Cross
**70 copies** A little bit more than a decade ago, we were introduced to the music of Filipe Felizardo. In all those years we’ve learned about his chameleon-like ability to adapt different states of mind and perception to the way he plays guitar. “Red Cross” is his last declared homage to the late John Fahey, but also a record representing all the imprisonments and liberties of living during a lockdown. The two tracks in this release exist in two different moments. “there’s an endness to it” is…

Music For Modified Melodica
*200 copies limited edition* Music for Modified Melodica by Japanese composer Kaori Suzuki was born out of two explorations: one of tuning (and subsequently degrading) the small reeds of a melodica, and the other to modify it playable with foot pumps, allowing for the sustained excitation of the reeds. Playing with the highly resistive foot bellows introduced massive ‘volumes’ of air to the reeds, overblowing them to vibrate loudly. This aspect led me to work with the sound potentials of combina…

XI Records is very pleased to announce the release of a 2 CD set of Michael Winter’s music organized by guitarist Elliot Simpson.

La Morte Young
* Limited Edition of 200 hand-numbered copies * Exit the haunted by the desolation latent drones of their previous productions: guitars and electronics in the red, screamed voice in walls of hyper-free noise, La Morte Young piles up the abrasive strata and breaks all the dikes with anger, offering an atomized vision of rock, as a reprise of the beginning in a primitive and violent version, only for the duration of a stunning 7’’. Philippe Robert
In Girum Imus Nocte Et Consumimur Igni
This LP shows the band doing their improv feedback guitar drone in a more precise way than before. Of course it’s still related to NZ music : Surface of the Earth, The Dead C and all guitars projects from there, but also to guitar noise minimalism from the USA, Glen Branca, Tony Conrad et.al. but also salutes the godmother of French experimental music Eliane Radigue.
Candor Chasma
Electronic ambient played on modular synth. Limited edition LP with 3D glasses no less.
Time Flies When You Are Having Fun
The Dictaphone is the solo project of Jérémie Morin. back after 3 years of recording hiatus, the French DIY synth artist delivers another fine album of electronic drone and abstraction.
Goner
**Edition of 125** Bloodletting is how Krovopuskanie translates from russian, the native tongue of the man behind this project of morose electronics and death-industrial gloom. He asked to remain "half anonymously," and we'll comply with that request, as he finds much of his personal life trivial when compared to the existential torpor his work speaks through: mental illness, self-destruction, suidical ideation, and emptiness. he is also a visual artist, working across a number of media, but oft…
