Korrelations
*In process of stocking. 2022 stock.* Completing a trilogy of dark ambient work, Korrelations is a summary of Beyond Sensory Experience’s sepulchral science, both a recollection of the arcane places explored on the previous works as well as a re-interpretation through the efforts of a number of remixers. There are more beats on Korrelations and not all of them are supplied by the remixers. Korrelations is one of those records which hangs in space after a fully realized body of work where the art…

Prospectus I
**2020 stock** "Long time sold-out, finally here comes the re-edition of this cult and seminal album! A stunning blend of the modern soft gothic sound and the timeless chants of Catholic rituals. It is at once a beautiful sound, yet also filled with melancholy. Archaic layers of string sounds, bells and choirs are intermingling with heavy drums and industrial loops creating an unsettling and threatening background atmoshere whilst spleen and sweetness forms the foreground. Prospectus I was the f…

Dödsabnorm
*2022 stock* Only a year after the "Nihil Total" album Folkstorm returns stronger than ever with an album of suffocating and death-infused ortodox industrial. Recorded using only 70´s circuitry and lots of metallic percussion Nordvargr has created a dense atmosphere that is dark and threatening as well as hypnotic. A clear statement of what 2020, and possibly the future, will hold for us all; decay, darkness and suffering.
The Grass Harp
*150 hand-numbered copies limited edition* Aiko Takahashi is a Nova Gorica-based musician, a spirit that has released albums on various labels. Just like the line that separates the two cities where Aiko lives, Gorizia and Nova Gorica, divided between two countries yet united as one, Aiko’s music exists on a boundary. A line that separates silence from peculiar, almost imperceptible sounds. Too quiet to be Ambient, too Ambient to be Sound Art. Two years ago, after a first complete release on IIK…

Nippon Guitars (Instrumental Surf, Eleki & Tsugaru Rock 1966-1974)

Ante-Mortem
Astonishing new record: Ante-Mortem" is one of Ghédalia Tazartès’ major works of the last 20 years. Although simply named 1 to 23, the CD bears a collection of very diverse tracks, a couple of them connected in a thematical frame, others simply standing for themselves. What holds them all together is first and all Tazartès’ archetypical voice. One could say that "Ante-Mortem" contains some of his harshest ever tracks as well as a couple of his most humorous ones."The album’s musical palette is a…

The Viaduct Tuba Trio Plays The Music of Bill Wells
The latest chapter in the unfolding musical story of Bill Wells finds the Scottish jazz outsider’s compositions played by a trio of tuba players with contributions from young brass players from his adopted hometown of Glasgow. The results, The Viaduct Tuba Trio Plays The Music Of Bill Wells, are alternately ruminative, playful and profound, ranging from the cyclical opener Fanfare For Three Tubas to a mischievous interpretation of The Midges, a comic tribute to the entomological scourge of the …
Close Position
The concept is therefore to propose an immersive type of listening, in which the rather extended durations of sustained and seemingly static sounds create a certain tension generated by the anticipation of variation.
The live performance involves the use of samples, as the composed balances require multiple timbral layers to be active simultaneously. The closeness in pitch and the mimicry between instruments highlight the psychoacoustic phenomenon of beating: in fact, our auditory sy…
