Dusty Colors
*300 copies limited edition* Soave returns with Dusty Colors, an astounding new full-length by Roberto Musci, one of the most enduring and important figures in the movement of Italian Minimalism. Utilizing the composer's longstanding, singular approach to electroacoustic composition that first altered the collective consciousness back in 1984 with the legendary LP, The Loa Of Music - intertwining field recording, samples, and Musci's own instrumental interventions - Dusty Colors draws its primar…
Athanor
*150 copies limited edition* Within him lies a chamber made of attention rather than walls. There, a quiet warmth works without flame, loosening certainties, refining what has settled into form. Nothing is forced; everything is listened into being. A tone, a shadow, a fragment of light; each pass through him as trace rather than possession. The world is not captured but accompanied, allowed to breathe, to fade, to re-emerge altered. In this inward vessel, transformation is a discipline of patien…
Mirror/Leaks
*20 copies limited edition* D. Stine and Doug Fogelson return to LAD with their latest long player, Mirror/Leaks. Recorded shortly after their beguiling first collaboration Dusk Breathing, a slightly different approach is evident here. This followed their desire to chart a different course, as well as new geographic realities. Rather than being led entirely by their improvisational muses, the pair approached the recording dates for this album with more of a sense of intentionality.
Shortly aft…
The Sentence
*2026 stock* Zach Cooper weaves recordings with the Vermont Contemporary Music Ensemble, high school demos, solo compositions and eraserhead-less tape experiments into the shining fabric of The Sentence. A debut album brimming with many talents and tales, The Sentence is atemporal, a divining of Cooper’s personal history to map his musical travels through formative years in New York state, his studies and collaborations within the University of Vermont’s music theory and composition department, …

Bing Industries
"Impassable moments lingering in the present,” utters Beth Robertson, the soft spoken voice cresting over a jostle of harmonics, creaks and knocks. “Existing just after us but before her. Everything lingers.” It’s inevitable that a record inspired by gigantic mounds of waste should be rich in the residue of the past, yet it’s striking to hear these atmospheres crackle with future-facing anticipation. Out of the sounds salvaged and recycled from previous performances at Tokoro Studio, we hear all…
Everyone I Love Is Sleeping And I Love Them So So Much
Yara Asmar’s new album, “everyone I love is sleeping and I love them so so much”, presents 11 pieces recorded over the past year between the small town of Alfred in upstate New York and Beirut. These sometimes fragile and tentative sound sketches reflect the times as Yara steps out, as if onto ice, into a new life on a new continent. She works with unfamiliar instruments, new materials and new sounds to build on her intimate style; homemade mechanical music boxes and a personal archive of family…
Chaparral
*50 copies limited edition* Chaparral is a collection of field recordings, drones recorded on trumpet and trombone, feedback from a metal sheet and mixer, and various samples, including heartbeat, bells, and pencil on paper. The three pieces came together over the course of December 2025 to March 2026, drawing from improvised material and found sounds, combined to gradually create a sense of structure.
The work is concerned with Nev Wendell’s relationship to the city she lives in at this point i…
Mausoleum
Mausoleum is the latest release by David Jackman, following the eight-part David Jackman / Organum Electronics Subscription Series issued by Die Stadt between 2023 and 2025. While continuing concerns explored throughout the Subscription Series, Mausoleum also recalls aspects of earlier Organum recordings such as Horii and Rasa. The spatial placement of sound, use of low frequencies, and distinctive sense of duration remain central to the work.
The recording is built from recurring elements inclu…
Tatemono
*150 copies limited edition* Tomoyoshi Date and Stijn Hüwels met for the first time in 2015 in Tokyo, being introduced to each other by Chihei Hatakeyama. That same evening, they recorded what would later become Hochu-Ekki-Tou, their first album, released on Home Normal in 2019, followed by 遠き火、遠き雲 (A Distant Fire, A Distant Cloud) in 2021 on Laaps. Tomoyoshi Date creates acoustic and organic sounds with a little touch of digital processing. He began to create electronic music in 1998. In 2003, …
The Will Of Tongues
The most ambitious work of Sarah Davachi's career to date. Spanning more than two hours of music across three LPs, The Will of Tongues arrives on the composer's own Late Music imprint as a vast, deeply considered statement - a meditation on the act of listening itself, and on the mental spaces that sound, given duration and reduction, continually opens.
Over the last decade, Davachi has emerged as one of the most singular voices working at the intersection of minimalism, early music, and electro…
Radiating
Gamut inc presents their first album for computer-controlled pipe organ, transforming Berlin's second largest instrument into an acoustic synthesizer — exploring overtone series, cascading canons and spectral transformations.In 2010, Marion Wörle and Maciej Śledziecki discovered that pipe organs could be controlled via MIDI. This technique, largely ignored by the organ world, became the foundation for a fundamental rethinking of the instrument. Over fifteen years, they developed sophisticated al…
All Thoughts Fly
Sacro Bosco (“Sacred Grove”) is the starting point for Anna von Hausswolff’s All Thoughts Fly. Here in solo instrumental mode, the entire record consists of just one instrument, the organ, and represents absolute liberation of the imagination. All Thoughts Fly radiates a melancholic beauty, and is distinguished by fluid transitions of contrasting elements; calmness and drama, harmony and dissonance, much like the place that inspires the music. Sacro Bosco is a garden, based in the centre of Ital…
Volatilités
A solo improvisation and composition by Lionel Garcin (on soprano saxophone) inspired by listening to natural environments and built on exploring the harmonic possibilities of the instrument.
Bardo Thödol
In their third collaboration, the shared project between Merzbow and Pedro Vian shifts towards less confrontational and more introspective terrain. Bardo Thödol, released as an LP, draws on The Tibetan Book of the Dead not so much as an explicit narrative framework but as a conceptual resonance: a passage, a suspension between states.
Where Inside Richard Serra Sculptures and The Wheel of Mani foregrounded a relatively defined dialectic between Vian’s environmental restraint and Masami Akita’s i…
Birds Measuring Space
During a 2016 trip to Colombia, I was very fortunate to be welcomed by the staff of the Rio Claro Natural Reserve, located in the central Cordillera. After several days of recording in the caves—the ones open to the public—inhabited by small colonies of cave-dwelling Guacharos (Steatornis caripensis), Juan Guillermo Garcés, director and founder of the Rio Claro sanctuary, allowed me to access a secret location outside of the reserve, home to what ornithologists reckon is one of the largest known…

The b…
Corn Alone
This is my ode to corn in 3 parts, all featuring corn as corn himself. There are 6 pieces composed for 7 handmade instruments, made entirely out of different parts of corn, with some thread and wood glue as well. There is a cornfield recording, taken on a day they were harvesting just under a mile or so away. And there is a musique concrete type of piece featuring field recordings and the instruments.
This album was made during my residency at Art Farm in Marquette, Nebraska, surrounded by infin…
Pas de la Demi-Lune
"Halfway between the Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox falls the pagan Lughnasadh festival marking the beginning of the harvest season in Ireland. Pas de la Demi-Lune was originally composed and performed for this festival in a celebration event organized by Phelim Ó Laoghaire. For that occasion, Dylan performed the piece in the river crossing leading to the Brennanstown Dolmen in Co. Dublin, a megalith portal tomb estimated to have been erected sometime in 4000-2500 BC. They chose to record in…
