Tourne-Disque
300 copies limited edition A siren sounds. Is it the keel coming to free the worker from her harsh task? Or the call of an iron whale inviting us to set sail for the depths? End of work, beginning of the dream: the grooves here will not be the fruit of plowing but moving reliefs to be explored. Because if there is indeed a paradoxical guide capable of activating the levers of such a liberation of esgourdes, by playing at will with the effects of sliding between the concrete and the abstract, the…
Discorporation: The Original Soundtrack
Edition of 300. For his fourth Feeding Tube release, Curtis Godino (now a resident of the greater Nashville area) has created a soundtrack album for a destroyed film that exists only in his mind. Playing with a raft of fine musicians, unencumbered by having to match his music up with an actual extant images, Curtis has created a suite of tunes that are stylistically connected to his earlier works, yet expand themselves into hitherto unexplored realms. A well-regarded maestro of the organ and Mel…
Soft Focus : Volume Two
Tip! Edition of 250. It is absolutely appropriate the second volume of Wednesday Knudsen’s Soft Focus suite appears as spring finally begins to take hold. Like the brilliant first section of this work (the whole of which was initially released on CD), the music here is a celebration of shimmering sunlight and the awakening of nature’s tonal brilliance. But where the first LP focused on more bite-sized pieces of work, this one envisions and documents instrumental horizons that are ever expanding.…
Two Kings
Hand-numbered edition of 250. First record of the mysterious duo Two Kings (Ian Humberstone, founder of Folklore Tapes and Malcolm Benzie). Somewhere, lost in another plane of existence, a banished king searches in vain for his kingdom. This is King Herla, a man stricken by the spells of an unruly dwarf king and destined to ride the stormy skies for all eternity. But on All Hallow’s Eve, when the boundaries that separate his world from our own are somewhat porous, our protagonist spies his oppor…
Selected Ambient & ASMR Works 2001-2003
An extremely prolific artist, whose work encompasses composition, opera, theater, radio plays, film or performance, Ergo Phizmiz returns in due time to the Discrepant fold long after his 'Two Quartets' and 'Disco Carousel' - under his given DW Robertson name - albums. A purveyor of the Creative Commons rights, Phizmiz has been deploying much of his work on the ever expanding Free Music Archive directed by WFMU since the early 2000's, creating a sprawling and defiant body of work that defies give…
Dear Alien
Lili Holland-Fricke and Sean Rogan’s debut album “dear alien” is a constellation of radiant improvised impulses, imagined in lucent fragments of cello, guitar and voice. Spacious, tender and glistening with rich electronic distortion, the record melds a spectrum of processed and natural sound as the artists invite listeners into their dreamlike world of synergetic introspections. Cultivated through a shared spirit of resourcefulness and play, “dear alien” emerges as an organic meeting place in t…
Index lécheur
* Digipack CD edition * Tanuki, a master of electronic engineering, and Caroline Sury, a yolo ethologist with stacked verbs, meet in a deliciously chaotic fusion. Their collaboration, tinged with sonic seum, gives birth to a documentary where phylacteries dent themselves on a sonic wax, creating an effect both captivating and singular. It's a daring blend of Tanuki's musical skills and Caroline Sury's unbridled artistic expression, offering a unique and unpredictable sensory experience. In this …
III
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* "Yesterday it started to rain… The smell of damp tarmac rising up through open windows, a smell which is uniquely evocative for us all depending on our individual histories: a suburban pavement, a school playground, a basketball court. The rain cut through a band of low pressure that had been lying over the city for days, pinging rhythmically off metal, causing rolling tyres to hiss and spit. The music that soundtracked this meteorological shift was the debut fu…
Devonanon
10 years after their debut, City Of All Times audio-visual enquirers John B McKenna and Richard Greenan re-appear as Devonanon, to share the findings of a decade-long sonic experiment. Like its predecessor, Richard & John is a living, breathing collection of field recordings and compositions, gathered gradually from remote corners of the pair's lives. Familiar waypoints - interwoven microtonal synths, regurgitated live performances, polite whispering, and the gurgling hum of vehicles (land and s…

Bubendey. Memorialmusik Auf Eine Brache
Statische Musen is the follow-up project to Hematic Sunsets, operated by Hamburg musician Asmus Tietchens.
Intercepted Communications
Mt Borracho's new record 'Intercepted Communications' is a paranormal tour of the United States. Starting off in their hometown of Austin (TX), the duo travelled across the country with their equipment, rigging up to local radio stations and letting their machines tap into these supernatural "hotspots" and recording what came back. With each of the 19 tracks captured in different locations (Salem, Lima, Creedmor, Mercer Island +) and at different days / times, it's a nationwide experiment into t…
Wiel
LINE is proud to present Wiel the first full length from the collaborative project VEND, by Joe Gilmore and Alex Peverett. Wiel is a selection of compositions focusing on a subtle, delicate use of acoustic and synthetic sound in both abstract and linear form. Shorter pieces of acoustic events flutter about the stereo field with almost accidental design and are related to Vend’s use of playful rhythmic compositions. The two longer compositions, Wiel vii/2 and vi/2 take their form from the sonific…
Grain
The meeting of AMM guitarist Keith Rowe with Burkhard Beins on percussion, two studio sessions and one live recording, sparse and subtle improv of the highest standard.
South Winds
2003 release ** "South Winds presents the results of a recording session Christof Migone undertook with Le Petomane (Joseph Pujol 1857-1945). Le Petomane performed his fart fantasia at the Moulin Rouge in Paris where, to much acclaim, he would imitate musical instruments and with his 'second mouth' hum recognisable tunes. For South Winds, Le Petomane and Migone sought to explore these somatic winds as a response to Artaud's ontological formulation: "the depth of my being is the volume of my body…
On Air
No Noise Reduction, a collaboration project between Rafael Toral and João Paulo Feliciano, operated throughout the 1990's and early 2000's. In the Summer of 1995, João Paulo Feliciano and myself did a more focused effort on extended improvisation pieces, each with either guitars or circuit-bent toys and various effects (including tape echo Copycats). We did a mini-tour performing only in radio stations, as live broadcasts. Back then we were really excited about experimenting new things and that …

Concert à la Cave 12
*100 copies limited edition* "Out there Norwegian guitarist-performer-singer, Gaute Granili, a true prodigy of (de)structured psychedelic song that we have been following since his beginnings, continues his explorations of sweet madness by donning a fantastic collection of strange twisted stretched beads, filled with ghost/haunting folk music, which one has the impression of knowing from who knows where, of lyrics sung in unknown vocabularies and of pop surges deboned by a psychedelic gnome mess…
