1807 (Músicas Retiradas Dos CDRs) (LP)
In what seems like some sort of cosmic alignment bound to happen, the ever prolific and somewhat elusive Niagara make their way into the Discrepant catalogue with '1807'. Compiling tracks recorded between 2014 and 2018 that appeared scattered among very limited and long out of print self released CDRs, the record feels as much out of time as deeply resonant with these times with no dancefloors.
Stripping away most of the beat based approach of early Príncipe releases and Ascender EPs, these 17 v…

After an already productive year, Alga Marghen, in the guise of their sub-imprint, Planam, delivers, “…et après”, an astounding double LP of archival material documenting the collaboration between Luc Ferrari and Ensemble Laborintus.

Memories of Perversion
Waswaas wanders further down the path of analogue and modular darkness, casting out his first album, Memories of Perversion. The 11 tracks traverse a range of electronic moods, tinged with moments of liturgical voicing, dissonant canonistic sequences and arcade-style sequencing. This is music for the wormhole interior.
Ultratumba
The Galician duo Trajedesaliva (Mon Ninguén – music , synths & Una Vena – words, voice and visual concept) returns with Ultratumba, an album full of passion, anguish, bitterness and sadness. Guided by naked emotions as much as by sparkling intellect, this is a singular work, an architectural wonder of pure analog electronic sound as we have not heard for a long time, with splendorous timbres that tend to the dark but also to the emotionally devastating. An album that feels strangely interactive …
