Uranian Void
On Uranian Void, Jessika Kenney turns her ear toward the resonances of her own subconscious. Blurring sine waves, hydrophone recordings, a ghazal of Hafez, solo instruments, original texts, and voice, the album is a meditation on sound, space, and the fragile edges of perception. Kenney’s voice weaves in and out of every space perceived. Evocations of memory coalesce into compositions inspired by years of inquiry into acoustic phenomena, where shimmer and shadow are equally alive. Produced and r…
Unterhaltungen mit Larven und Überresten
Unterhaltungen mit Larven und Überresten by Läuten der Seele (Christian Schoppik) unfolds as a haunting electroacoustic collage. Looping fragments from vintage “Heimatfilme,” field recordings, and diverse instruments evoke a surreal, dream-prone nostalgia. The album balances hypnotic repetition with spectral detail, drifting between tenderness and uncanny unease.
Samt ar-ra's
Samt ar-ra's by Benjamin Dobó and Dion Monti is an evocative ambient collaboration that serves as a sonic companion to Dobó's film. Crafted between 2020 and 2022, the album moves through delicate textures, atmospheric field recordings, and subtle melodic fragments, inviting listeners to explore intricate emotional landscapes in a work that bridges visual and auditory art.
Achlys
Jon Porras’s Achlys unfolds a meditative narrative across eight drone-based pieces: fragmented guitar melodies and modular synths swirl through dense atmospheres, echoing elemental habitats and ambiguous emotional states. The album rewards careful listening for its textures, cyclical patterns, and subtle resonance, inviting reflection on impermanence and change.
Luurankolauluja
Luurankolauluja is Uusi Aika’s deep dive into spiritual fusion, where Nordic folk, modal jazz, and raga-like improvisations meet. Rooted in forest myth and cosmic calm, the album’s six compositions form a slow-burning suite of luminous, contemplative beauty.
Fobia
Aylu’s album Fobia marks a pivotal exploration into the spaces between fear and resilience, channeling personal experiences with agoraphobia and claustrophobia into textured, avant-garde electronics. Through a tightly-woven sonic language, Fobia moves from suffocating tension to moments of spiritual release—turning solitary struggle into collective resistance and introspection, with each piece mapping an emotional topography that remains intimately and universally relevant.
Smelter
Smelter by Faith Coloccia and Daniel Menche constructs a temporal architecture that explores water in its myriad states—snow, ice, streams, and storm. Moving between spontaneous, voice-laced vignettes and epic drone formations, the record serves as an aural archive that suspends the listener in crystalline moments, as if each piece is fixed in time yet endlessly malleable.

Kasveille Ja Elaimille
*2025 much needed repress!!* What is music about? It can be about anything, I guess, but that’s not what we are talking about. That’s not why we are here. What makes the difference is if music, any music, is worth it. Then it’s something else. Like this piece, Juho Toivonen’s solo album. What I suggest as a simile to music on this vinyl, is the experience of sauna. Savusauna (smoke sauna) to be exact. The thing about savusauna is that because of the method of heating, the room gets really hot, a…
Antiphonals
Canadian-in-LA electroacoustic composer Sarah Davachi has rediscovered her muse since releasing work on her own label, Late Music. Having explored hitherto unheard realms of enchanting melodic organ and electronics drones on her 2020 album Cactus, Descant, Antiphonals further explores these ideas using a sound palette of Mellotron, electric organ, piano, and synthesizer. Referring to church music sung or recited alternately by two groups in its title — Antiphonal is a studied solo affair in whi…

Music for a Bellowing Room
Big tip! Sarah Davachi returns with “Music for a Bellowing Room”, the first ever release of her audio / visual collaboration with the artists and filmmaker Dicky Bahto, originally commissioned by the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Sprawling to an incredible three hours of sublime, minimalist drone - composed for tape loops, synth and delay - that draws the ear toward microscopic shifts and details, we've adored every second of this truly monumental work.
Vestigial Gamelan
Tip! *100 copies limited edition* This album is the third in a series of experiments exploring the magnification of the insignificant sounds. The chaotic but inherently repetitive patterns created by the interaction between the objects has been realised through a minimum of gestural action by way of a number of distancing strategies, such as the use of hand drills, film winders and motorised drills/screwdrivers. Astasie-abasie is a project of Ian Andrews which evolved out of a long running perfo…
