mathematical model 0010
*300 copies limited edition* Drawing from field recordings collected during a trip to Japan, boring tables saturates sonic vignettes in sentimental key, replaying familiar traces of lived experience into something more abstract. The seven tracks on mathematical model 0010, Luca Quartarone's debut album, trail through evolving tonal expanses that envelop the environment in a perpetually expanding haze of serenity. Though sonic fragments hail from the everyday, the compositions themselves inevitab…
To Septiske Membraner
To Septiske Membraner by Cría Cuervos is a fluid mesh of musique concrète, water textures, and field recordings. Bubbling noise fluxes through submerged sonic layers, creating an immersive, decaying environment of shifting acoustic debris.
Sords
Sords by Meilt blends noise, musique concrète, and lofi tape textures into a gritty, abstract sound collage. Saturated loops, found sounds, and analog decay create a visceral, fragmented listening experience rooted in sonic experimentation.

Baboon and Chest
From the frayed edges of sounds that once hummed and the lingering ghost of forgotten amplifier feedback & the unanswered answering machine message echo, Glands of External Secretion return with their most different album until the next one. "Baboon and Chest" is a four-pronged stumble through the usual-yet-unusual and weird-yet-no-weird delightful auditory wreckage. This "collection" stitches together echoes across time, from 1987 to 2025 and from San Francisco and Long Beach then to Edinburgh …
Circuits
A moment of first encounters, Circuits is the sound of four musicians (Savvas Metaxas, Evi Nakou, Giannis Arapis, Dimitris Tigkas)navigating an unfamiliar terrain in real-time, their individual languages dissolving into a shared improvisational space. Subtle drones, resonant feedback and textural gestures underpin the ensemble’s interplay. Circuits is the sum of raw, expressive utterances—melodic remnants shifting from pulse to friction, from bow, to frets, through fingertips. A single-take impr…
Compressed Knowledge
Radio Species’ “Compressed Knowledge” offers elusive, collage-based soundscapes—stuttering loops, fragmented speech, and ambient noise—evoking speculative reconstruction and experimental archaeology.
Les Météores du Coeur
Yvan Etienne creates sound installations and performances blending composition and perception. His work explores acoustic and electronic spaces, memory, and psyche, often in site-specific contexts.

Decay Music 10: And I Entered Into Sleep
*200 copies limited edition* Reconfiguring the notion of bridge building on a multitude of terms, it feels fitting that the tenth and final installment of Die Schachtel’s Decay Music series, Sergio Armaroli and David Toop’s “And I Entered Into Sleep”, was co-created by an artist whose work featured in the first suite of LPs issued by Brian Eno’s Obscure Records in 1975, the groundwork toward which Decay Music’s own efforts nod. Since that auspicious debut, “New and Rediscovered Musical Instrumen…

Anthology Of Experimental Music From Australia
*100 copies limited edition* For over a decade, the Sound Mapping series has traced the evolving landscapes of experimental music across the globe. This chapter turns its ear to Australia, a continent whose sonic expressions are as vast, isolated, and idiosyncratic as its geography. The artists featured in this compilation explore a wide terrain of auditory possibilities, from shimmering drones and granular textures to fractured electronics and abstract field manipulations. There’s a rawness her…
Eikon
Two years following his work 'Monumento Fiume', Giovanni Lami returns to Kohlhaas with a new release, once again investigating the intricate relationships between memory, the sonic medium, and decay. 'Eikon' originates from a series of acoustic cello recordings, subsequently disassembled and transformed by Lami, resulting in a unique deconstructed and layered object, lying somewhere at the intersection of soundtrack, decomposed ambient and video game music, shaped through the use of samplers, a …
Cyclical Tombeau
Zach Rowden presents Cyclical Tombeau on Second Sleep, a haunting exploration of repetitive structures and drone that transforms the double bass into an otherworldly sound-making device. Through prepared techniques and extended bowing, Rowden creates circular funeral dirges that blur the boundaries between acoustic instrument and spectral presence. Connecticut-based Rowden has established himself as one of the most innovative voices in experimental bass music, known for his work with Tongue Depr…
Ocarina Solo
Stefano Portello is an artist who works with music and ceramics. For years, Stefano has been shaping ceramics to give shape to small ocarinas that he builds and plays himself. Each ocarina is born as a unique piece, becoming a perfectly functioning musical instrument. Its shapes are essential and inspired by nature. The melodies he plays are simple, repetitive, almost hypnotic. They do not seek virtuosity, but evoke a sense of calm and a return to the essential. Stefano Portello's work is an inv…

In order to materialize this music, th…
The Years After
*200 copies limited edition* "Our first album we made together, "The Days After", was initially released on Three Poplars in 2003. Then, afterwards in 2007 it was re-issued with a new version of the second track, "Flaxen", on Faraway Press.
After having found the earliest version of 'The Days After' in my archives last autumn, there was an excitement that grows with the beginning of something in the creative process and the sparkle of an idea that can never be recreated. Furthermore, there was …
