Rides Again
Tip! *100 copies limited edition* Eternities is an intuitive collaboration between bass clarinetist Katie Porter and sound artist Bob Bellerue.

Sweet Distractions
Sewer Election started blessing the underground noise scene around 2002 and has since released tons of stuff, from harsh noise to raw musique concrète-like things and tape works. ”Sweet Distractions” is a long piece sitting comfortably in the corner of his more laid back and ambient works. Sounds a bit like William Basinski never cleaned his reel to reel machines. Broken, beautiful and strange in the best possible way. Recorded in parallell w Kassettmusik back in 2007. Same technique with crude …

Journey to the Cave of Guanyin
The inspiration for these pieces comes from the Chinese folklore of Guanyin, a deity whose name translates to ‘the one who perceives all the sounds, or cries, of the world’. Also known as Guanshiyin 觀世音, she is the embodiment of infinite compassion. I grew up knowing of Guanyin as a female deity, but recently discovered that she had transformed through the centuries from the male Hindu bodhisattva, Avalokiteśvara. I instantly found an affinity for this gender-fluid figure, who was said to have a…
Borrowed Out Of Time
*150 copies limited release* "Borrowed Out Of Time is the latest album by Kaurna Country artist and writer, Tristan Louth-Robins. It follows a steadily paced run of releases for labels like 3LEAVES (2013’s The Path Described) and his own Studio Maurilia which share an inquisitive spirit, informed by, but different from, influences such as Alvin Lucier and Rolf Julius. While Tristan’s compositions might be neatly situated somewhere adjacent to both sound art and acoustic ecology, they aren’t beho…
Last Blues
*150 copies limited release* "A mysterious folio of sonic snapshots, as much recaptured as composed, by Jon Dale’s project, Moth, in Adelaide in the late ’90s and early ’00s.
From the ready means of guitar, amp, and tape, a congruous but diverse selection of unnamed tracks emerge - musical moments borrowed from oblivion with the as yet unfulfilled good intention of returning them. Their sounds evoke abstract polaroids of winter seascapes flecked with spare, brittle detail, or the scaly-winged fl…
Watering paper flowers and snakes
Open to the Sea was born around the musical experiences of Enrico Coniglio, here playing piano and synths, and of the music wizard Matteo Uggeri who adds his world of samples, noises, field recordings and recorded instruments played by friends. The first CD is a re-edition of the double mini-cd “Watering a Paper Flower” where an echoed piano goes through delicate and enchanted sound tapestries, remembering a river slowly flowing to the sea. The second CD, with the participation of a third musici…

Incendies
"Incendies" is a piece that sings the jolts of a world on battery. Just as we watch a fire with fascination, its beauty and its destructive force at the same time, one can listen to analog signals enriched with saturations and give birth to the space created inside a stereophony. Or meditate on the carbon footprint of the same action. And for your information: the number of megafires will increase by 30% by 2050 (according to a report by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) which also d…
Argot
The fourth full length album of Passepartout Duo and a deep investigation into how we communicate and collaborate with electronic devices, Argot is a reinterpretation of the synthesizer as an intelligent talking machine. Each track of the album features a kaleidoscopic mirroring of mystical electronic textures traced onto the surface of traditional acoustic instruments. The synthesizer’s voice is characterized by gestural sways of simple harmonies that evoke an ancient air, and a sense of timele…

Both rely on their ownprinciples, within a reduced esthetic and a guided timeline.

The IMO's music, developed throughyears of experiences, deals wi…
Dissolution Seedlings
The members of House on Fire met Ben Richter in 2019 while we were all attending CalArts,and as our ambitions as a group grew, we wanted to work with someone who would engagethe latent, unexplored possibilities of our instrumentation. The piece sprawls - musically,temporally, physically. Each movement reconfigures the group around a spare set ofinstruments, in each permutation pulling out new composite sounds. Wells plays cello and bassmelodica simultaneously, Andrew tunes a C# drone, Richard pl…
enclosures
enclosures addresses issues of space, place, reverberation and resonance across five pieces. Anexercise in scale, each piece is a portal: a biome, containing its own environment, weather, sense of time. Featuring juxtaposed convolution reverbs that transport an ensemble through real and imaginary spaces, beatings between Just Intonation and Equal Temperament, a triptych of environmental portraits, an exercise in the musicalized resonance of the harp’s pedal mechanism, and finally, an exploration…
