Voices [for solo voice]
*2025 stock. 190 copies limited edition* "Voices" is a project born as a live performance for solo voice and loop station. The study of tribal rituals of some primitive cultures has been the main source of inspiration for my work. As various anthropological texts affirm, shamanic rituals are not based solely on music produced by rhythmic instruments (rattles, tambourines and other percussions). It is often the shaman's sing that induces trance. He uses his own voice, producing guttural, hissing,…

Shostakovich's 5th Played Backwards In A Concrete Silo
Tastemaker and cult figure among some, noise vendor among others… lurking somewhere in the shadows between London and Paris, the man known as Sheet Noise emerges out of the blue with his debut LP, Shostakovich's 5th Played Backwards in a Concrete Silo.
A direct shock to the system: equally beautiful and evil, abrasive yet uncomfortably calming. The feeling that something is about to happen at any minute—impending love or hatred blaring from the speakers at breakneck speeds. Heavy-duty, reactor-m…

The album spools outwards in different directions from its origins as field recordings, audio ripped online, acoustic instrumentation and improvisation. The result aims to extrapolate the source mater…

A photobook of songs rustling through delicate pages of memory—the album weaves her voice, field recordings, synthesizer, and violin into an ode to the lasting influence of her matrilineal line. Fernande, Cecile reflects on these two women: Pirard lost her grandmother at…

Cosmetics For Mannequins
*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Daniele Ciullini dissects contemporary society's plastic facades with Cosmetics For Mannequins, eight tracks of manipulated field recordings, toy instruments, and automatic voices that expose the mechanization of human interaction.
