The Future
Synapscape, the German duo of Philipp Münch and Tim Kniep, return with eleven tracks of heavy technoid industrial: glitching electronics, dense rhythmic machinery and dark atmospheres rooted in early EBM, with singing saw by Babsi Teichner.
Terminal Boundaries and A natural water course diverted reduced or displaced (Book)
Made in 1969 but never published, Terminal Boundaries is an artist book by Lawrence Weiner, a sculptor whose medium was language. The manuscript for the publication, which was recently brought to light, contains two related bodies of work represented as typewritten statements on paper that Weiner pasted to the pages of a small composition notebook. The book’s absence from Weiner’s oeuvre plagued him as it marked a terminus of his relationship to the physical construction of his artworks, and ill…
Cloaven Theatre / That Old Western Sieve
The Sun City Girls were unlike any band before them or that has come in their wake. Their catalog, their ethos, their *being* - you name it, with the Girls that “it” was singular and became legend. This singularity started early and extended to their release schedule and the means behind the same. While the band would prove to be wildly prolific throughout their existence, during their nascent days they quickly realized that they could not be contained by any sort of traditional label schedule. …

Every Time I Feel the Spirit
*250 copies limited edition* Every Time I Feel the Spirit is a collection of piano studies, epistles, sketches, improvisations, and meditations composed, performed, and recorded by the legendary writer Ishmael Reed at his home in Oakland, California, over the past five years. After 2022's The Hands of Grace (recently re-released on vinyl by All Night Flight), we are thrilled to collaborate with Reed again to bring this extraordinarily precious music to light. Two and a half hours of music spanni…
Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat
On Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat, Charanjit Singh folds centuries of Hindustani tradition into a three‑box Roland future, crafting a 1982 raga‑disco séance that would lie dormant for decades before being hailed as proto–acid house and a cornerstone of South Asian electronic modernity.
Disque 4 (’76 Studio et Live)
Les Rallizes Dénudés returns with Disque 4 -’76 Studio et Live-, the latest in the ongoing series of official archival releases from the celebrated Japanese underground band.
Del Soffio
Like a breath that expands and slowly fades away, “Del Soffio”, Aniello Perduto’s debut for Maple Death Records, takes shape as a single composition lasting just under fifty minutes, stemming from an open score performed at the prestiguous AngelicA | Music Research Center. Amid echoes of European free jazz, electroacoustic improvisation, minimalism, and contemporary music, the trio brings to life an essential and instinctive sound in which every sonic gesture is guided by mutual listening while …
Industrial Relations
Strung-out yet precise. Introverted but with something to say. Industrial Relations is a further unraveling of the stories untold left lingering around the Piedmont capital. Cloistered away behind one of Turin’s many crumbling doorways, a basic studio set-up alongside a scattering of found photos and a type-writer forms the backbone of this bureau.
Noticeably more barbed than its predecessor Chamber Music, drums are frayed and left to splutter. Grungy guitar chords come in at angles, occasiona…
Splayed Werks
Tyondai Braxton’s Splayed Werks (his first full-length since the 2022 Telekinesis sessions) opens a new chapter: over 70 minutes of electronics and detailed sound design spread across 15 tracks, most under five minutes, favoring shorter forms over his previous long-format work. The album merges recent compositions with pieces written across the last decade—reworked, remastered by Matt Colton, and sequenced into a single continuous statement that reads less like a compilation and more like a real…
Puff
*300 copies limited edition* New from Ulla’s 28912 label comes a gorgeous bouquet of lowercase wonders from Justin Cantrell aka J and the Woolen Stars, part of Picnic, and the brains behind the excellent Daisart and se Dessaisir Publishing labels.
»Puff« is a glistening pool of lush refractions and music-box lullabies, featuring an array of acoustic instruments and fragile foley sounds that are gently peeled away until all we’re left with are the faded outlines of half-remembered songs.

Fight Fire With Fire
Latest release by Joachim Nordwall on Stellage.
Satori
Originally released in 1971, "Satori" is Flower Travellin’ Band’s groundbreaking masterpiece and one of the most visionary albums of the early heavy rock era. It fused hard rock, psychedelia, progressive music and traditional Eastern influences into a sound unlike anything heard before. Unlike many rock albums of the era, “Satori” is structured as a continuous musical journey, with its five tracks presented as interconnected movements rather than conventional songs. The band’s powerful rhythm se…

Quiet Storm
Space Afrika, the Manchester/Berlin-based duo of Joshua Tarelle Reid and Joshua Inyang, make raw, intensely detailed, visceral music with shades of ambient, trip-hop, techno, and modern classical, drawing spacious urban dubscapes from the contours of their city. 'Quiet Storm', the duo's highly anticipated follow-up to their 2021 LP on Dais Records, expands on its predecessor’s sound and scale in every direction as a sprawling, collaborative vision shaped with profound patience and intention. The…

Ampersand Curve
»Ampersand Curve« initiates a brilliant new phase of work by North Manchester’s most elusive artist, best known as Michael J. Blood. His string of ruffkut club bangers, as well as jams with Rat Heart & Samizdat over the past seven years, have made his records a true cult property, and now find him signed to one of the UK’s most foundational techno imprints – more of which later this year.
But under the Sees aegis, he swims in very different waters, following his instincts to use the studio-as-in…
Between soil and signal
“between soil and signal” is a three-part audiovisual performance featuring live electronics and Cretan bulgari. It reimagines the atmosphere of long-duration poetry singing and oral traditions from Balkan, mainland Greek, and Cretan communities. Expanding poetry beyond language through an interplay of immersive sound and dynamic moving images, the performance crafts a world that is at once synthetic and organic, fragile and intimate, inspired by cosmogonic myths, magic spells, and folk songs. T…
Big Gamble
*2026 stock. 10 copies limited edition* Although Jackson and McLean spent many of their formative years playing in an array of dubious named and increasingly outsider rock groups, ‘Big Gamble’ is the first time they have ever made music purely as a duo. In the intervening years since their last band activities together. Jackson founded Thraa and began to focus on prepared guitar experiments in a series of aurally challenging and investigative solo records issued on his own Fr33zehead imprint. Mc…
Abrading Headstocks / Running Springs
*2026 stock. 25 copies limited edition. The cassette features interchangeable artwork* Featuring amplified sonic drones, atmospheric qualities and scraping textures. The theme of this record is centred around 'Abrading' - to scrape or wear away by friction or erosion, using the headstock of an amplified guitar to create sounds by using the walls and floor of the rehearsal room.
'Internal Waves' and 'Above The Fog' are home recordings made up from two layered amplified guitars played with a bow. …
