Tides
Uwe Zahn's second album, originally issued on City Centre Offices in 2000, returns to vinyl remastered by Kassian Troyer for Keplar. Field recordings from the French coast, sampled jazz drums, harpsichord figures - Tides steps away from IDM precision into warmer, more inhabited ground. A turn-of-the-millennium high point.
Icol Diston
Arovane's acclaimed 2004 album »Lilies« has been out of print on vinyl for nearly 2 decades now. It finally gets a well-deserved reissue through the Berlin based Keplar label. The new version has been remastered by Kassian Troyer at Dubplates & Mastering and comes with a brand new cover artwork.
Air Signs
*100 copies limited edition* The pieces on air signs are based on fairly minimal guitar loops with overlapping swells and melodies. Inspired by the hawk on the cover, which landed right outside the window at my workplace in a hectic area of downtown Toronto, the pieces are light and airy, reflecting the stillness of our natural surroundings in the midst of human made chaos.
The guitar loops on the album are mostly processed with a Chase Bliss Lossy pedal as well as a Vongon Paragraphs filter bot…
To Those Lost in the Woods
*100 copies limited edition* A tense musical and poetic journey through the night from Uhushuhu and Prorok. Who dwells in this world? Who gradually becomes our constant companion here? Grass, sand; a hand, a candle; wool, a fish; fire, a wave; moss, the Moon; grass, a river; ice, snow; clouds, stones – hypnotic images of a lullaby whispered to a traveler lost in a stream of sound. However, paraphrasing a well-known proverb, it is impossible to put to sleep someone who is already asleep.
Samen
'Samen' collects tracks from singles, EPs, and compilations that came out between 2015 and 2025. 17 tracks, 76 minutes, presented as a continuous mix on a shiny compact disc. This album compiles some of my very favorite Machinefabriek music, and if you're a newcomer, 'Samen' certainly serves as a great entry into my discography.
Inweys
Inweys is the new project from Glaswegian musicians Conal Blake (Feedback Moves, Domestic Exile) and Murray Collier (Real Landscape, Dip Friso, Grim Lusk). Their debut self-titled 12" was recorded in the summer of 2024 at La Chunky Studio in Glasgow. The 12" is due for release on May 1st and the duo will be performing live at Counterflows Festival, Glasgow and at Laden 2, Berlin. They asked Fielding Hope of Counterflows Festival to write a short reflection on the record: "Inweys debut release ar…
Blobs
Ambient Library Music for Woodwind and Synthesiser. A 9 track album inspired by a birthday card Greg's 4 year old son Leo drew for his mum earlier this year. This album is an aural delight of unusual sounds. Kind of like a mix of Satoshi & Makoto, Hiroshi Yoshimura, Hiroki Kikuta and the Karl Jenkins and Mike Ratledge soundtrack to 80's children's Television show 'Button Moon'.
Kiliae I
*100 copies limited edition* 'Kiliae' is a collection of pieces that tell the story of a homecoming. It is a cohesive narrative that captures the feeling of what a home can be, drawing its inspiration from life in that place itself—life that has now become something different after having lived in foreign places for an extended period of time. Kiliae captures a certain atmosphere, a feeling that has built up during countless walks and bike commutes in and around the city of Kiel.
A Serpent Called Emit
*100 copies limited edition* Museum Of No Art is the pseudonym of the artist and musician Mona Steinwidder. The pieces on the album A Serpent Called Emit document a two-year engagement with the clarinet and other woodwind instruments. In the search for simplicity, one encounters complexity. But the Museum discovers connections between the poles and lets them circle around each other. Impurities have found their place in it and hard cuts are intended to underline the volatility of the moment, t…
I Am The Weather
Multi-instrumentalist Sarah Lipstate brings her innovative music to life under the name Noveller. Forming unexpected sonic routes, her songs are vivid and cinematic. Following several years spent collaborating with Iggy Pop, and touring the world as his guitarist, Lipstate returns with a new album of her own. I Am The Weather further expands her inventive explorations, creating what Pop once described to Jim Jarmusch as “symphonies for people that don’t have a lot of time.”
Sarah’s work as a com…
Alone
*2026 stock* "Alone" is the third longplayer from Italian sound artist Simone Giudice, following his 2021 album "Materia" released on the Spanish Semantica label. The album brings together seven parts that impress with compositional diversity and confidence, merging into a complete work.
With sensitivity, melodic arcs of tension are brought together with partly classical instruments such as the piano, a dramaturgical performance that knows exactly when to press which emotional button to involve …
Ousia
*2026 stock* With Ousia, Joachim Spieth presents his third full-length album on his label Affin. Originally released as a double 12", the record translates ephemeral impressions into cinematic soundscapes and unfolds across eight pieces that form an intense, emotional journey — exploring the subtle interplay between external perception and inner reflection.
The album also features Mutuus, a captivating and unique collaboration between Markus Guentner and Joachim Spieth — their first joint work i…
Tides
*2026 stock* Originally released in 2020 as a double 12", Tides marked Joachim Spieth’s second full-length album on his Affin imprint. The record quickly sold out and has now been reissued as a carefully crafted CD edition presented in a 6-panel digipak.
The album unfolds across eight tracks, shaped by endlessly interwoven layers and subtle shifts of tone, tracing a path between immersive, melancholic, and euphoric moments. Flowing textures and atmospheric depth merge into a vivid emotional land…
Onda
*2026 stock* With "Onda", Regensburg artist Markus Guentner releases his follow-up to Empire, which appeared on A Strangely Isolated Place in 2021.
"Onda" captivates with its orchestral-like progressions, an endlessly interwoven carpet of sound that spreads out over six etudes. As if in slow motion, he scans through the individual sound particles, works out details, lets dust fall from the source material, cores, connects and in the end lets everything flow...
"Onda" will be released on May 5, 2…
Hadayro
* Edition of 199 copies * Originally released on cassette in 1985, H·A·D·A·Y·R·O is a landmark of Japanese noise music. It documents the early vision of Solmania and the singular sonic approach of Masahiko Ohno. For years, it remained a cult artifact among collectors and underground enthusiasts. This vinyl edition renews its impact, feeling more like a rebirth than a simple reissue. Solmania was far more than a band; it was Masahiko Ohno’s personal sound laboratory. At the heart of the album are…
Yoshinotsune
* Edition of 199 copies * Between 1999 and 2000. By the early 2000s, Merzbow had entered a markedly new phase. The tape collages, junk electronics, and analogue chains that had defined his work across the 1980s and 1990s gave way to a digital practice built around laptop, software processing, and a rigorously composed approach to harsh noise. Across releases such as Merzbeat (2002), Animal Magnetism (2003), and the present album, Masami Akita reorganised his vocabulary around dense, sculpted str…
The Human Race Was Restored To Life Repeatedly
* Edition of 199 copies * Government Alpha, the project of Yasutoshi Yoshida, is one of the central figures in Japanese harsh noise, emerging from Tokyo's early 1990s underground scene. Through his Xerxes label, he developed a style that is both extreme and meticulously constructed, balancing ferocity and precision with remarkable control. Even at its most chaotic, every sonic eruption feels carefully placed.
Originally released on cassette in 1994, The Human Race Was Restored To Life Repeatedly…
The Human Race Was Restored To Life Repeatedly / Yoshinotsune / Hadayro (3LP Bundle)
Across three decades of uncompromising sound, this series of vinyl reissues traces a raw and evolving lineage within Japanese noise. From the mid-1980s underground to the turn of the millennium, these works capture a continuous process of transformation—where noise is not only pushed to its limits, but constantly redefined.
Beginning with Solmania and the 1985 cassette H·A·D·A·Y·R·O, we encounter a foundational moment: a fiercely physical and experimental approach where self-built instruments, t…
I.A.V.C. Tapes
Limited edition of 33 copies in black cardboard boxset. 1980. Working alone from his home in the Mantuan town of Pomponesco, twenty-four years old, equipped with little more than an analogue synthesiser, a tape machine, and a small bank of effects, Maurizio Bianchi closed the chapter of his earlier Sacher-Pelz project and inaugurated, almost overnight, the body of work that would place him at the heart of European industrial music. Across roughly twelve months he produced an extraordinary run of…
Industrial tape
This is where it begins. Recorded in May 1980 and self-released the same year as catalogue number 01, Industrial Tape is the founding document of the MB project, the first cassette Maurizio Bianchi issued under his new name after closing the Sacher-Pelz chapter. Working alone in his home in the Mantuan town of Pomponesco, twenty-four years old, equipped with little more than an analogue synthesiser, a tape machine, and a small bank of effects, Bianchi laid down four pieces that would set in moti…
