*80 copies limited edition* Since 2013 on NTS, Time is Away (Jack Rollo and Elaine Tierney) has redefined the concept of radio storytelling. Theirs is a cultured and visceral assemblage that weaves ambient, sacred music, dub, and field recordings with literary and cinematic fragments. A work on memory and sonic resistance that culminated in the acclaimed compilations Ballads (2022) and Searchlight Moonbeam (2023).
We invited them to an event in collaboration with Quindi Records at the Church of …
Alyssa
*300 copies limited edition. Black sleeves with paste-on artwork and a postcard* Debut LP from a new Gothenburg duo consisting of Irma Krook (Makthaverskan) and Dan Johansson (Sewer Election). Alyssa takes elements from Irmas Military Arms 12" released a few years ago and combines it with the mind expanding synth stuff Dan has explored with the Psychic Panorama recordings recently. Adding a few larger-than-life piano bangers and whatnot, the result is a dreamy and mesmerizing night time album …

Rejoining
Before history will be made by machines, British musician Thomas Bush sends a new humane record. DIY chamber music, for the Kashual, no Plastik. Ten curious arrangements, looking for new horizons, those hiding behind the previous. They are short, they are epic. A great beautiful mess, in which Thomas Bush occasionally sings and speaks in veiled pitch. On hallucinated rhythms. Along the guitar, that’s everywhere. As chord. As melody. As sound. As a sliding desert stoner. Droning, zoning. Keeping …
Light Sensitive Materials

Pakachume
Emerging from Studio HC Orchestra, Pakachume is a collaboration between producer Adrien de Maublanc and multi-instrumentalist Yonatan Levi. The album blends minimalism, jazz, chamber music, Afro-carribean sounds, and ambient electronica, recorded intimately in Paris’ Studio HC with acoustic instruments and analog synths.
Manifestations In The Shadow Of An Uncertain Land
Manifestations in the Shadow of an Uncertain Land unfolds through aleatoric composition and intuitive process, shaped by deeply entangled political and aesthetic lineages. Rooted in lived experiences of bodies and minds navigating the localized and global weight of imperialism, the work also draws from the temporal logic of film and literature, where memory, dread, and anticipation coexist. Working with voice and modular electronics, Lowe treats sound as a sculptural and cinematic force, informe…

Selected Organ Works
øjeRum is the moniker of Danish artist Paw Grabowski. Since 2007, his mostly tape-based works have unfolded like private diaries—intimate, textural, often centered around an vintage pump organ Paw found left abandoned in a dilapidated Danish home, and to which he would return, sometimes in the dead of winter, to play and record on. The works featured on this release are centered around this pivotal engagement and collect some of his earliest releases from around 2014 to 2017. These were then car…

*2026 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "Perila casts her slow burn, drowsy magic on Vaagner’s A Sunken Mall sublabel, drawing on the ambiguous nuance of daily life for another diaristic entry to her quietly expanding, precious catalogue. Continuing to occupy a personalised corner of the contemporary ambient sphere, somewhere between Félicia Atkinson and claire rousay’s liminal tone and Burial’s South London nightscapes; Perila transmutes fleeting feelings into a singular sort of ephemeral ambi…

*150 copies limited edition* Circle Bros emerged during the late‑nineties wave of lo‑fi and dronerock, when Morc Records founder Wim Lecluyse first began shaping hazy, guitar‑driven soundscapes. Over the many years that followed, the project gradually started using a richer soundpallete, and shifted toward semi‑improvised, restrained songs that draw as much from minimal‑leaning songwriters as from artists who fearlessly approach the folk traditions. What has never changed is the core approach — …
Silence is a Sharpened Blade / Ashes / The End Site / A Pearl in the Jaw / Flautas Ahogadas para Jacobo Grinberg
*75 copies limited edition*
DNZ122 Drew Wesely – Silence is a Sharpened Blade
Silence is a Sharpened Blade speaks in the language of materiality — a stripped bare mantra of nylon and wood conjures unspoken and veiled interiors, channeling the intimacy of a single guitar alone in a room. Silence is a mirror, a shadow, an absence. It speaks when words fail in the poetry of negative numbers. Where do we go when the lights burn out? What is beauty in hell? What can pierce a heart of stone? Silence i…
Spring Is Here, Don’t You Know
The 20th of March marks the beginning of the astronomic spring. It is also the release date of the long awaited new album by S.J. (Johan) Borger. With his Electric Chamber Orchestra he sets to explore the relation between sound, composition and play. A personal journey back to the light, that invites the listener to escape this busy and noisy world. The first new album by Johan Borger (1984) in 14 years sees the light of day on the first day of spring, 20 March 2026. This is not a coincidence. S…
UnXpKtD
Tip! *100 copies limited edition* redacted. incomplete narratives. non sense. but. working with what i have. walkmans. tapes. dictaphones.
Green's electronic work of recent years focussing on defective analogue technology simultaneously broadens and refines with UnXpKtD; his first definitive electronic noise outing incorporating a pair of dictaphones in various states of disrepair. The music is chaotic yet concise, disorientating yet focussed; UnXpKtD is an intensely abstract and personal sonic …
Murmurations
*2026 stock* Murmurations is an interplay of sonic posibilities between flute and drum. Focused on subtle musical events that come from flute timbres that react on drum skin Taiga explores the realm of low volumes on their respective instruments and creates stories inspired by nature. As silence and calm are a big part of the creative process behind the making of this album, the concept of driving prepared drum with flute resonances, encouraged by feedback loops, is what makes this music uniqe a…
Rustlings
'rustlings' is an album of two pieces written by Stockholm-based violinist and composer Maya Bennardo. One of the pieces, 'dormant gardens i' (2022), was written for and performed by andPlay, a duo of Bennardo on violin and Hannah Levinson on viola.

Both pieces were inspired by Bennardo's move to Sweden from New York City, where she developed a new relationship with nature through walking. Her solo and compositio…
Four Corners
"I first came across Jeff's mysterious "Reggae Foes" 45 in the mid-2000s at the legendary Logos book/record store in Santa Cruz, California (RIP) - the kind of generic sleeve and label that gives you nothing more than a font and some scant shards of text to go by (luckily this text was "A Flying Saucer Came Down and Burnt My Baby's Neck"). What I heard upon bringing it home felt like some kind of alternate-timeline post punk calypso, unknowingly adjacent to the deconstructions occurring at the B…
A Circle of Skin
A Circle of Skin is music to give solace during the dark autumn evenings. Creating images and patterns of comfort to deflect from the hallucinogenic disorientations of reality. As ever with these things, there are always demons and spirits lurking within the shadows of the album. Showing us with a sharpened realisation to be mindful, as things can always get worse. These are the murky undercurrents of a soundtrack which keeps us moving forward and alive. The sounds present are at once both organ…
