Venenum
**2025 Stock** This is our fourth chapter in the reissue series dedicated to Maeror Tri — and by now, this legendary ambient/industrial trio needs no further introduction. This time, in our Digibook Reissue Series, we are proud to present “Venenum” — a serene, analog drone album recorded between 1989 and 1991. Originally released on cassette in 1992 and later reissued on CD (limited to 200 copies) by the short-lived but wonderful French label ÜNE (r)ecords in 1999, Venenum now returns in a newly…
White Souls In Black Suits

Zeuhl Jazz
**250 copies, 2020 stock** Sonata Islands is a cultural association, born from an idea of Emilio Galante, that promotes and performs new music and jazz. They organized many concerts and festivals in Italy. After Sonata Islands goes RIO (dedicated to the music of Univers Zero, Fred Frith and Thinking Plague) and Nippon Eldorado Kabarett (with the same musicians, dedicated to Japanese RIO music of the '80s with pieces by After Dinner, Wha Ha Ha, Kiyohiko Semba and Haniwa All Stars), here they pay …
A Tutti gli Uragani che ci Passarono Accanto
An introspective journey into darkness through an oblique and fascinating song form. This, and much more, in Enten Hitti's beautiful new album. There is something particularly transcendental about 'A Tutti gli Uragani che ci Passarono Accanto', the new Enten Hitti album released on 25 May 2020 by Lizard and ADN Records. It is a work that welcomes the song form, but dished out with the classic researched and experimental approach that has distinguished the band's work in recent years.
An album of…

Identity Pitches (Book)
In Identity Pitches, artists Stine Janvin and Cory Arcangel have composed conceptual music scores based on the knitting patterns for traditional Norwegian sweaters known as Lusekofte. Utilizing three of the most popular designs (Setesdal, Fana, and the eight-petal rose of Selbu) of this ubiquitous garment, Janvin creates scores for both solo and ensemble performers by mapping the knitting patterns onto the harmonic and subharmonic series and integrating the tuning principles of traditional Norwe…
Ever-Present / つねなるもの

Three Glasses
Composed by Takahiro Kawaguchi. Performed by Shinjiro Yamaguchi, Satoshi Kanda, Kanako Kawaguchi and Takahiro Kawaguchi. Droplets of water are set to drip from three infusion containers suspended from the ceiling, each at a different speed. Each of the three players produce sound by rubbing with their fingers a wine glass that catches the droplets from one of the containers, with the scale changing according to the amount of water that accumulates. The first track documents this process for te…

Out Loud
2024 Restock. Strictly limited to 550 hand-numbered copies, this deluxe 2-LP edition presents the complete recordings by the hitherto invisible 1974 quartet of Frank Lowe, Joe Bowie, William Parker, and Steve Reid.

These 1974 tapes went unreleased and are heard only now in this rediscovered and expanded v…
Maroon
Separated from both its reputation and its sleeve art, the music of Muslimgauze explores the relationship of visual sensations -- space, color, depth, illusion -- to the listening experience. The music on Maroon is dub-like inspired techno music, laidback with voices appearing randomly in the mix. The thick drums and rich found sounds that densely populate the soundscapes on Maroon give materiality to the warm presence of the synth washes. The music is so layered and textured that it ceases to b…
This Embodiment
This Embodiment consists of work stemming from exhibitions and performances by Hanne Lippard over the past number of years. Including texts from her most recent exhibition entitled ‘Flesh’, at Berlin’s KW, that saw the artist use ‘her body and words to counterfeit perimeters given by established standards in art production and create a universe where the audience is physically as well as mentally brought outside of their confinements.’ The works collected display the various areas to which Lippa…

Kagome Kagome
Two decades of French experimentalism meets Japanese spiritual practice in this haunting collaboration. Recorded around a 104-year-old harmonium, Dora and Suzuki channel otherworldly beauty through voice and electronics - music of prayer, magic, and genuine mystery.
For a Moment the Sky Knew My Name
For a Moment the Sky Knew My Name is the forthcoming solo album by Peter Knight, released through Lawrence English’s Room40 label. Written and recorded partly outdoors on Krowathunkooloong land in southeastern Australia—a landscape tied to Knight’s childhood—the album merges field recordings, trumpet, and live electronic processing to construct an evocative meditation on environment, memory, and belonging. Across four expansive compositions, the trumpeter’s tones intertwine with insects, wind, a…
Parlez-vous Français?
A quick, spontané voyage to the French Riviera ca. 1968, good times long before things went south, Organi’s “Parlez-vous Français?” is a woozy, tripping, soothing sojourn: DIY dream pop, hazy psychedelia, blurred-but-steady beats dripping down the golden boulevard, complete with mystical chants, a dash of half-remembered Franglais that goes down like some vintage eau-de-vie. There’s a fine massage waiting behind those venetian blinds. Pay half an hour, you’ll be relaxed and revived after 22 mi…
