The Swamp Live
The Swamp’ is a get-to-know-you party where furniture is broken, wine glasses are smashed and walls are defaced with graffiti, but the living room remains more beautiful than the night before. The album is the first meeting between vocalist Maja S. K. Ratkje, guitarist Torstein Slåen and electronics artist Sigurd Ytre-Arne. With a fair dose of anti-bullshit inherited from decades of jazz/improv/contemporary music mixed together in the Norwegian stew pot, they improvise new songs across time, aes…
Undercurrent / Wanderlust
With a refined, modern sensibility and a deeply human sense of space, “Undercurrent / Wanderlust” balances detail and emotion. Each track unfolds like a short journey: moments of clarity and restraint giving way to tension, color, and release. The partnership between Suzuki’s expressive musical voice and Okagawa’s atmospheric approach creates a sound world that is both immersive and immediate—an invitation to listen closely, then follow where the music leads.
Chimeric
Few artists have expanded the possibilities of the voice as radically and masterfully as Berlin based voice artist, composer and improvisor Ute Wassermann. For her, the voice is an ecosystem: a living field of relationships between body, object, space, and the listener’s ear. Her music moves between the transcendental and the quotidian at once – breath as ritual, sound as touch, acoustic experience as something simultaneously otherworldly and utterly present. Dissolving the perceived boundaries …
Bee Space
There aren’t many all-female vocal groups in the world of improvised music, even fewer of them are working bands, and there are very few projects that are anything more than that. VoiceACT, conceived by Anna Gadt, is exactly that. VoiceACT is, above all, a platform for artistic exploration, generally without specific stylistic characteristics, but operating according to the sacred principle of free creation, to which each invited artist contributes whatever resonates in their improvisational sou…

Millesuoni
In Millesuoni, Deleuze Guattari e la musica elettronica (2008), Emanuele Quinz distills some of the key ideas on the nature of sound formulated by Deleuze and Guattari over the course of their work. Central among them is the dynamic of territorialization and deterritorialization—a strategy of appropriation and subsequent release, activated in the alternation between refrain and music.
A child humming alone to ward off the fear of the dark is engaging in a process of territorialization, marking a…
Terceiro Solstício
Luz gélida(d)o montediluída em flor(es).
Delicate guitars, ethereal voices, tracks woven from sighs and layers upon layers, like secrets and small nocturnal rituals under the cold glow of the moon. Beautiful, evocative, and quietly transformative. The artist, cláudia simões, also known as alga, dedicates this work to winter: a season of introspection, stillness, and subtle magic. Let's enjoy the offering.

These previously unreleased recordings, featuring vocalists Richard Hayman (aka R.I.P Hayman), Imani Smith an…

O Tilli
*2025 stock. 200 copies limited edition* Donnimaar is a music and visual arts project by Marie Kølbæk Iversen. The focus is on the magical songs of West Jutland that were documented in the 19th century by the Danish folklore collector Evald Tang Kristensen.

Blue braki place along
New alias from Alexander Holm. A strangely private sounding document of humming voice, midi harp, feedback and ghostly field recordings. Truly unclassifiable music.
Game Mechanics for Voices: The Place of Landscape
With ‘Game Mechanics for Voices: The Place of Landscape,’ Aske Zidore explores composing for four voices (SSAA) by introducing game mechanics and turn-based strategies. The recordings consist of three movements, performed live by vocalists from Norwegian ensemble Trondheim Voices at the Øra Studio in Trondheim, March 2023. The piece uses game mechanics as notation systems; wooden games, including card, board, and tile structures, serve as the foundation for transforming rules into musical instru…
Sacrosun
Ece Canlı's sophomore solo album Sacrosun is a non-linear series of maximalist meditations on interstellar anxieties. The composer, vocalist and researcher draws on her diverse artistic and academic backgrounds to craft an immersive sonic landscape that expands beyond the terrestrial limitations of her acclaimed 2020 debut Vox Flora, Vox Fauna. Where her first album dug into tellurian imaginaries inspired by the sonic variety of earthly creatures, Sacrosun expands this audio-vision out into a co…
