Nanawatai
*111 copies limited edition. Noble A5 sized Digipak, 350g Cardboard* Hor-cheret refers to the name of Horus as a child of Isis and Osiris in Egypt mythology. This is not meant to be seen as a an imperfect and childish god, but as the one who is placed over the speech of men concerning the gods. His imperfection is a reminder to overcome the own inabilities. As Plutarch says, the finger at his mouth is a symbol of silence and secrecy.
Hor-cheret is a ritual and martial music project by members of…
Shaman
Ruins Of Xibalba (Sydney, AUS) bring avant-garde ritual dark ambient from down under. Deep within the past, the roots of "Shaman" branch into our world. Bent Window is proud to present this elegant and mystifying release in cassette format...
“Shaman is an album that challenges the lives of those who have lost touch with their roots, their existence marred by false beliefs and misconceptions. Shamanism is a gift to humanity, the sole path to truly understanding nature, accessing profound emotion…
My Shadow
One of the most striking and enigmatic works to appear on Discreet Music in recent years. There is a long tradition of artists who have tried to set scripture to music and failed magnificently - the failure itself becoming the subject, the wound becoming the work. Carrie DeCunzo Mirande's debut album belongs to this lineage. In the twenty-four days before Christmas 2024, she read the twenty-four chapters of the Book of Luke and attempted to respond in sound. Two piano pieces emerged - one inspir…
Fantasma
Fantasma was conceived by Mount Fog for the sound installation CHIARA • dispositivo di ascolto a distanza, a site-specific art project curated by Standards, held in September 2021 around the ancient Chiaravalle Abbey in Milan. The idea behind the intervention was to use the iconic lantern tower of the abbey as a “listening device”, through a specially developed sound diffusion system. As an environmental work, the installation could be freely experienced in the surroundings of the monastery, fad…
Bora Boreas
*100 copies limited edition* This album came together across different moments and shifting moods, moving in opposite directions and never fully settling much like the sudden, restless bursts of a bora wind. Each track belongs to a different time and a different inner weather, carrying its own distance and temperature. Within these shifting winds were the quiet weights of regret, the faint traces of shame, and the strange urge to believe without question in certain things, even when nothing felt…
House Of Strength
*100 copies limited edition* After Kites, Sister, and Mask, House of Strength marked the fourth collaboration between choreographer/dancer Roshanak Morrowatian and composer Rutger Zuydervelt. The performance — and, by extension, the music — has a strong ritualistic quality and can be seen as an inclusive celebration of both spiritual and physical strength.
Drawing inspiration from traditional Iranian percussion as well as contemporary club music, the score bridges old and new worlds, shifting be…
Rr·concerrt
*150 copies limited edition* Like all concerts by Conrad Schnitzler, this one is unpredictable and always captivatingly beautiful. A masterfully crafted mix of four solo works, all located in close proximity to the RR album itself. There are few such works in the entire discography, and most of them are included in our top 100.
Memory
*150 copies limited edition* 'Memory' is a saturated, multifaceted poem, a work of sound art set against a backdrop of shimmering cosmic space. It is a sonic excursion into memory, reflecting both the light and the darkness of our consciousness. Moving forward and transcending many boundaries, Conrad Schnitzler remains true to the mood established at the very beginning of this 60-minute cinematic work.
Spielt Noise Boys
Swiss music legend Stephan Eicher returns with a bold and intimate new album, Spielt Noise Boys, released via Born Bad Records. Known for his poetic songwriting, distinctive voice, and genre-blurring artistry, Eicher here reimagines the sound of his early band Noise Boys in a stripped-down, emotionally resonant solo setting. Spielt Noise Boys is not a simple “best of” or nostalgia trip. Instead, Eicher revisits the raw energy and DIY spirit of his formative years, reworking classic Noise Boys tr…
Convex
Convex is one of a series of LPs that Schnitzler released himself in the 1980s. It is one of his LPs that convey virtually no visible information. Only the title is printed in large letters on the cover of Convex, and in tiny letters that are easy to overlook, it says: "Cover Conrad und Richard." The labels on the original LP indicate that one side is called "Convex" and the other "Concav." That's all the information there is."On Convex, as on many of his other albums, Schnitzler definitely used…
Control
"Control was created during a phase of Schnitzler's work in which his friendship with Peter Baumann (formerly of Tangerine Dream) allowed him to try out and use new electronic sound generators and peripheral technologies. He never used these innovations merely for their own sake, but always put them at the service of his artistic flair for experimentation. His signature style is clearly recognizable on Control.
The album seems to be a kind of compilation of different musical approaches. Tracks 5…
Ora Sono Un Lago
Like the emerald merkiness emerging from the cover photograph, Bono / Burattini’s new album ‘Ora Sono Un Lago’ transcends elements, a tenacious and brooding collection of work that testifies the duo’s growth and ghostly ability to immerse kosmische landscapes, stripped electronica and oscillatory psychedelia and emerge with songs meticulously constructed, dense and unforgiving, full of richly assembled textures and echoed out other-worldly choirs. Some might call it confessional mysticism. ‘Ora …
Surge Studio Music
Spider Taylor crawls over to Dark Entries with Surge Studio Music, an album of archival gay pornographic soundtracks. James Allan Taylor was born into a working-class family in Los Angeles in 1951. Nicknamed “Spider” by his father due to his frantic energy, Taylor was a natural-born guitarist, gifted with perfect pitch and a voracious musical appetite. Throughout the 70s, he expanded his musical repertoire, playing in bands ranging from country to post-punk, like his outfit Red Wedding, while al…
Communication
With Communication, Karl Bartos is re-releasing his visionary solo album from 2003 – and striking a chord with the spirit of the times. As a key member of Kraftwerk, Bartos played a major role in classics such as ‘The Model’, ‘The Robots’ and ‘Numbers’. After leaving the band in 1990, he continued his musical journey with Communication – now with a critical eye on the digital media world. The album is a sonically precise and thematically astute exploration of issues such as image overload, ident…
In A Fugue State
*300 copies limited edition* 'In a fugue state’ finds pedal-steel guitar maestro Joe Harvey-Whyte collaborating with tape loop sound scientist Paul Cousins on a warped ambient excursion into the subconscious. Originally written and recorded in one night, the eight tracks of hypnotic electro-acoustic music explore the concept of memory and time. The duo study how we remember and misremember things; forming an imperfect reorganisation of time, events and emotional states. This album exists at a cr…
The Sheer Action Of Fini Tribe: 1982-1987

RE:MURDERS
