Un Fiocco di Neve
“Un Fiocco Di Neve” (Italian word for snowflake) is one of the possible crystallisations of an ongoing project called Nucleazione (Nucleation), started in 2017 and consisting of the accumulation of over 200 sound files and silences pulled together and randomly overlapped with no control. The five compositions of this album originate from a series of auto-generative methods, which I found brought me to new listening experiences in the process of composing. I trace my steps back to a decentered, l…

Masterpiece / Spectator
Lucky restock, few copies available Within our little bubble of avant-garde, experimental, and underground sound, with its endless web of recordings from the past and present day, it can be easy to forget that these contexts are rarely as hermitic as they seem. Many of the great creative accomplishments of the last century have been a result of interdisciplinary conversation - the marriage between image, action, and sound - collaborations reaching toward new forms of “total” art. This is partic…
Up In Air

Ontmoeting
* 400 copies on black vinyl. Comes with a download card * Ontmoeting (Encounter) from 1982 marks the beginning of the published audio works of Enno Velthuys. When Rob Smit of Kubus Kassettes first visited Enno to discuss the possibilities of releasing a cassette, he was open to the idea and gave Smit access to his tape archive of recorded tracks to cherry pick his favorite pieces. Initially Enno felt the selection didn’t do justice to his broader musical spectrum, that also included more rhythm …

Decouple Series
Second release for the Decouple ][ Series, a project that aims to showcase artists working, in their own ways, at the bold fringes of electronic composition, experimenting around the topics of increasing complexity, dependencies and miscommunication in a media-saturated digital era. British producers Dale Cornish and Sim Hutchins join the project, the former playing with an anti-sober, almost eccentric euphoria, the latter with nostalgic and slighty eerie ambient feel. The thinness of reality is…

Som
Persona's "The Game of Changes" was created by artist Roberto Campadello in the early 1970s. The game consists of a semi-reflective mirror, two candles and a 10" record (now an expanded LP). This game of light, shadow, reflection and transparency, allied to an immersive soundtrack, causes the players' faces to merge and create a new creature with each movement, where there is no longer you or me, only You. To compose the soundtrack Roberto invited Luiz Carlini, who called his partners from Tutti…
Sequences (Lp)
Tip! ** Deluxe edition of 500 on 180gram black vinyl with Booklet ** Musica Maquina is a new label created by Domestica Records and Hivern Discs.
