Derma
*150 copies limited edition* Derma emerges from my dialogue with music, space, and silence. It is an immersive sonic experience where every gesture is guided by the here and now—by raw emotion, sensory perception, and the act of creation itself.
Through the use of extended techniques, the performance evolves into a unique, unpredictable path where distinct soundscapes merge into a deep, continuous flow. The core of the sound lies in the tactile relationship between the drum skin and the objects …
Displaces
On Displaces, sound artist Francesco Fabris fashions a high‑dimensional cartography of memory, hyperobjects and matter, where langspil, biophonies and geophonies are folded into phased time‑space, drifting between suffocation and release in an eerily tactile sonic ecosystem.
Rough and tumble
Althoff, the master of kinetic sound sculpture, returns to machines for a new offering of textured compositions. Knowing that I used these items for music-making, a friend recently gave me a large old aluminium pot lid with a beautifully flanged edge, just begging for some marbles to roll around in it. Attaching the lid to the platter of a slanted record player meant the marbles would gather at the lowest point, and roll when the lid rotated. Fixing a ‘bump-post’ in the path of the marbles push…
The Lost Tapes
Big Tip! *Limited edition of 200 copies* Geometrik Records is delighted to once again play a part in the exclusive recovery of Marcelo Expósito's previously unpublished work, which had been lost since its original creation in the 1980s. Marcelo Expósito is one of Spain's most internationally renowned contemporary artists, whose work is regularly exhibited across Europe and Latin America. But he began his career at a very young age during the era of sound experimentation that flourished in the wa…
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…
All the mess
"Take out this tape and press ‘play’ my darlings. Remember when you were a child? Remember that deep immersive play you almost fell into? Be prepared to fall again oh sweetness. Slithering breath becomes iced molasses on “Moon bear water.” A voice-within-a-voice daydream hums with toothy sibilance. Yellow synths crackle like fire, the most ancient of all musics. Rules-based organisations quake at the critique of “All the mess.” Blunt stabs of fizzing electricity reach an ever-sustaining peak lik…
Unfamiliar Music (Paris)
Sold out at the label. Sparkling or Silent finds crys cole and Oren Ambarchi pausing their restless, always‑on‑the-move discographies at a curious angle, as if turning the light slightly to see what has been glinting at the edges all along. Both artists have long carried an electroacoustic sensibility in their work - in cole’s hyper‑attentive treatment of small sounds and negative space, in Ambarchi’s use of guitar and electronics as malleable matter rather than fixed instruments - but here that…
Bidule 2.0
On Bidule 2.0, eRikm tunnels into a cache of unheard Pierre Henry tapes, feeding analog “sound objects” from 1950–1974 through his custom digital apparatus to forge a dense, flickering work where early musique concrète and present‑tense signal processing fold into one another.
House with No Light (field notes on two occurrences)
*200 copies limited edition* Dana Ollestad is an American multimedia artist living in Tokyo. He regularly carries out concerts in which he structures performances while producing sounds from light through the use of light-emitting objects, from which he also releases intense light. This album documents two solo performances by Ollestad at Ftarri, Tokyo, on March 25, 2023, and November 9, 2025. Arranging light-emitting objects around a table bearing an array of performance equipment, he made skil…
Underground Vein
'Underground Vein' is a mystifying and curious recording for two electric basses. Focusing on prepared techniques, modulation effects and the odd sighting of looped phrases, Masatake Abe and Ken Ikeda create an undulating sea of texture and atmosphere across the albums 12 pieces. A strange, alien landscape of sounds and moods, Masatake had the following to say about the albums creation and inspiration: "Ken Ikeda is active as an electronics player, but it may not be well known that he was origin…
Thresholds
On Thresholds, Andrew Anderson assembles a disquieting tapestry of foley‑like detail, field recordings and dream logic, a vinyl debut where precise sound art slips into phantasmagoria, hovering at the edge of memory, image and pure atmosphere.
Induction / Mutation
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* At the end of 2024, Eric's purchase of an electric cooker with induction hobs was the catalyst. Between auscultations and improvisations, Eric offered Francisco his recordings of the object in his kitchen. In return, Francisco completely reinterpreted these recordings. From this dual level of listening, the elements created resonated in each artist's sound world.
Pieces created from shared original raw sound source materials.
Baudouin Oosterlynck & Bénédicte Davin
On their self‑titled LP, Baudouin Oosterlynck & Bénédicte Davin slip two late‑’70s vocal compositions into the present tense, turning Glasgow’s Tectonics stage into a resonant laboratory where Oosterlynck’s ultra‑precise scores and Davin’s live voice re‑sculpt silence, timbre and breath.
Paris Public Spaces 2
On Paris Public Spaces 2, Éric La Casa and Seijiro Murayama stage brief, focused vocal interventions across Parisian sites, letting microphone placement and urban acoustics turn spoken sound into a moving portrait of how voice and city continuously re‑shape one another.
Or Gare: funeral procession music from Ryfylke, Norway
On Or Gare, Stine Janvin and Morten Joh slow time to a funereal crawl, reanimating Ryfylke’s “liksong” tradition as a ghost‑lit microtonal ritual where voices, synths and creaking percussion hover between lament, liturgy and quietly glowing electronics.
Loss
*170 copies limited edition* "Between September and November of 2024, I turned to sonic art making to cope with personal grief and to reestablish a sense of purpose after a family loss. Like a ritual, I developed a weekday routine, working in my studio from 1:30 to 5:30 PM consisting of field recording and improvisation with sine waves and objects. From this material, I composed six pieces that emphasize continuity and repetition, drawing on coarse, low, and deep resonances to embody the rituali…
Particularly Dangerous Situation
*150 copies lmiited edition* Ian Wellman's “Particularly Dangerous Situation”, his first release for Elevator Bath and first vinyl LP, is a meditative, at times harrowing, interpretive document of the catastrophic California wildfires of 2025. Wellman's stunningly descriptive field recordings plus his signature tape loop textures and sampled drones combine for a dramatic ten-part narrative that is both frightening and sorrowful in its depiction of calamitous events. "On January 7, 2025 Southern …
Studio Music
*300 copies limited edition* The roots of Studio Music lie in a special encounter between sound artist Jan D’Haene and visual artist Mark Manders. Recorded in Manders’ studio, where sounds resonated among the artworks, the music unfolded in dialogue with the imposing space. As the concluding part of a diptych, following the EP Études, this album evolves more slowly and with greater layers. It forms a dialogue with D’Haene’s introspective passages and invites a moment of pause and stillness. In d…

Chantier 4
Tip! *2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "When I was in Paris 2013 - 2015, the second apartment in which I stayed was on Rue Adolphe Mille, which more or less ran along the western border of the Parc de la Villette in the 19th Arrondissement. On the opposite side of the park, the new Philharmonie de Paris, designed by Jean Nouvel, was nearing its long-delayed completion. Eric La Casa, a master of in situ field recording/performance, lived just up the street as well and, in 2013, ventured in…
