Cryo
Cryo is the first album by the duo of cellist Nikos Veliotis (GR) and pianist Alex Zethson (SE). Veliotis is best known for the pioneering electronic group In Trance 95, MMMD and his collaboration with Giannis Aggelakas of the rock group Tripes. Zethson is a member of groups such as Goran Kajfes’ Tropiques, Martin Küchen's Angles, Fire! Orchestra, Vathres, and more. The duo met in Athens when Tropiques played at the legendary record store, gallery and concert venue Underflow, where Veliotis was …
Anasýnthesi
Herzog | Muche | Nillesen is a trio featuring Matthias Muche (trombone), Etienne Nillesen (extended snare drum), and Constantin Herzog (double bass). Their music operates in the liminal space between improvisation and composition, where shifting textures and microtonal structures unfold in slow- motion transformations. Drawing on minimalist, spectral, and extended instrumental techniques, their sound is less about individual gestures and more about emergent sonic phenomena— where the interplay o…

There's Always a Strawberry Hut
"For over a decade Elizabeth Davis assumed the moniker Wilted Woman. This project was a key in bridging DIY subcultures in the United States and Europe both in contribution to sonic development and the subsequent performance events for her communities. Excelling in eclecticism, Wilted Woman’s sonic vocabulary was adept at deflating the self serious posturing found throughout the fields of various electronic music circles while also being pointedly driven, technically advanced, and with a prolifi…
Fact I
*2025 stock* After a long break Wozzeck returns to Intonema with an album called Fact I that opens the next chapter in the group's history. Ilia Belorukov, Mikhail Ershov and Konstantin Samolovov celebrated a decade of the band last year and wrote a piece with the materials collected over several years, transformed them and placed them into a new context. This resulted in a 37-minute composition of math rock, noise, musique concrete and field recordings with a wide dynamic range and sounds throu…
Sauerkraut
*2025 stock* In 2013, the collaboration of electronic musician Gaudenz Badrutt and saxophonist Ilia Belorukov began in a trio with accordionist Jonas Kocher, and in 2014 the album Rotonda was released on Intonema. Since then, time has passed, Badrutt and Belorukov have toured also as a duo, Belorukov later switching to a modular synthesizer. In March 2019 in Biel/Bienne, the duo fruitfully worked in a new context, looking for fresh ways to interact, not only with each other, but also between ele…
Feedback Poetics
Manolis Pappas writes: "Coming from Thessaloniki, but currently residing in Athens, Savvas Metaxas presents "Feedback Poetics", a study in ambient, minimal electronics and feedback drone, revealing a work of compelling compositional clarity. "Feedback Poetics" was recorded during a long improvisational night, with most of the piece captured in a single take. Later, a few additional sounds were added. Recorded using the Lyra-8 synthesiser by Soma Electronics and the Lemondrop granular synthesiser…
Painting A Picture / Picture A Painting
“I did this piano/Rhodes recording, played live, without overdubs. I believe your approach to sound could match very well these tracks….” That’s how Giovanni Di Domenico’s collaboration with Rutger Zuydervelt started, though the first seeds were planted when the duo did a short live improv together in 2019, and Giovanni joining Hydra Ensemble on stage in 2022. Painting a Picture / Picture a painting is -as the title suggest- an album of two long-form pieces, swapping the working method for each …

*150 copies limited edition* "It is not easy to draw inspiration from a great figure of music ... i don’t have her talent or anything like that ... But i still took the risk of trying something ... Even to go through the window in the eyes of some ... Too interested in poetry and the hypnotic force that emerges from her pieces ... Sometimes tinkered with implausible machines and fragile ... Gigantic in our eyes that are stuck blissfully behind our little  screens ... Or instruments used as nobod…
Undercurrents
Huge Tip! Drag City and Yoga Records are delighted to return to the music of Matthew Young. Following Recurring Dreams (1981, reissued 2014) and Traveler's Advisory (1986, reissued 2010), Undercurrents (2025) collects eight oddly dissimilar pieces that somehow fit together perfectly. Although unique enough to be called outsider, Young’s new album occupies a musical world accessible to fans of many genres. Composed and recorded over the span of several decades, Undercurrents displays the wide ran…
We Come For An Experience Of Presence
*2025 stock* We’re beyond thrilled to present ükya, the first band ever on our label which does not feature any member from Nakama! Ah, how we delight in the smell, taste and – not least – sounds of fresh blood! Jokes aside – we still consider them family, as two of them have attended The Nacademy in the past. ükya (always written with a small ü) is an up and coming Norwegian trio playing music in the field of improvised and open form music. Dangerous as individuals, lethal as a band! We Come fo…
Stay / Sea
*200 hand-numbered copies limited edition* HolyKindOf is multi instrumentalist J. Bryan Parks from Akron, Ohio. Is a part of Rubber City Noise. HolyKindOf is a solo venture that began its current incarnation in the late spring of 2012 in a cathartic response to personal tragedy. Using dense layers of manipulated loops; primarily cello, field recordings, tape & voice. He sculpts viscerally; a requiem of repetitive phrase, culminating heady delicacies, evolving melodies & crescendo. Each live perf…

dustsceawung
"Pressure relief..... these are the sounds to listen with caution. dustsceawung is a well used pot on the stove with a locking lid. The broken gauge configured with a crack that looks suspiciously like a smile. A worn rubber gasket creating a seal far past it's expected life by the manufacturer. Still this is not enough. There is no measure to how much force lies within. A hiss escapes, a rattle or knocking comes and goes. The process continues with thoughts of the contents within. In this case …

Peace and Pleasure
*200 copies limited edition* In February 2019, multi-instrumentalists Maurizio Abate and Luca Venitucci crossed musical paths as part of an artist residency at Standards in Milan. Over those few days, their respective instruments engaged in a dialogue, shaping sounds and structures within the space that housed them. While working on the post-production of the recorded material, Abate and Venitucci enlisted the valuable and decisive collaboration of fellow like-minded musicians Roberto Laneri and…
