Telectu's first live album, recorded at the 1984 Cerveira art biennial with performances by Manoel Barbosa: long loops and homages to Eno, La Monte Young, Fripp, Cage and Riley. 200 new copies pressed from the original 1985 stamper.

After Psychonavigation and Air, Infinite Fog continues its series of five-CD editions devoted to Pete Namlook with the complete Silence collection. Silence began in Frankfurt in the early 1990s as a collaboration between Pete Namlook and Dr. Atmo, whose ambient nights at the XS club brought the two musicians together. Released in December 1992, their first album was the first full-length ambient release on Namlook’s newly founded FAX label and soon became an early label classic. The second album…

*300 copies limited edition* Originally released in 2000 on Smalltown Supersound, Kim Hiorthøy’s first record Hei captures an artist who had made very little music before – yet it seemingly was the starting point of a musical career that would stay away from easy categorisation. Now, Hei (2026 Remaster) returns on blickwinkel, released digitally and on vinyl on 30 October 2026, as part of an ongoing series revisiting and reissuing Hiorthøy’s work. Made in Copenhagen with little equipment — an Ak…

For over 25 years, David Madson (aka Odd Nosdam) has been stationed away from the light of the mainstream, diligently working the nightshift. Every so often, we awake to find another of his bleary and beautiful missives slung into the waking world – albums whose assemblages of sampled grooves, atmospheres and voices are unified by a hallucinatory sense of melody, like disparate visions strung together through ribbons of sleep-talk. From his earliest days as a member of the seminal group cLOUDDEA…

*70 copies limited edition* A collection by Peruvian visual artist Jonathan Castro between 2024–26 at home studios while living in Amsterdam, then Rotterdam, NL. The compositions were made using various synthesizers, samplers, electronic percussion, congas, and an array of effects pedals. Knackered out salsas, looped up and chucked down into a custom dub chamber. Given his background living in music, listening to music, and in music — the regional rhythms on display are not a surprise. It seems …

Four compositions by the Stockholm artist built from modular synthesizers, microphones and self-regulating systems: feedback held at a fragile threshold between order and instability.

Limited to 165, the first 65 will be pressed on special black/red 'colour in colour' vinyl, while the balance will be simply black vinyl.

Here are Andrew's own words on the LP: "The title 'Mondo Cane' is a reference to the 1962 Italian film directed by Gualtiero Jacopetti, Paolo Cavara, and…

When you’re a three-piece, every move must mean. There’s no place to escape, and no one to hide behind. This might be why Unmarry Me’s slim body of recordings so far – one seven inch, one shared single with Lung Leg and Lora Logic, and now this, a five-track EP, Lions in Autumn – reads so clearly; there isn’t a step out of place. It’s a DIY effort, certainly, anti-rockist in intent, a home-made sound-system jerry-rigged into being by three uncontrollable spirits. Unmarry Me is the unholy trinity…

Although humans possess language as a means of communication, we sometimes hurt each other simply by intending to. In war, bullets kill people. If we consider words to be like bullets, they can be violent and cause mental suffering. However, when communication causes problems, the only way to solve them is through more communication. I thought: wouldn't it be wonderful if those bullets could turn into flowers instead? In everyday life, when we talk, laugh and share moments with friends and famil…

“Variable,” an album by Hybrid Leisureland－the project of Hidetoshi Koizumi, who has been active as an electronica and ambient composer and arranger since his debut in Paris, France, in 2010－is now available on CD.

The title “Number Face'' comes from my wish for a peaceful world where individual values and ways of thinking are respected. No one in the world is the same or has the same face. Just like our environments, what we like, what we don't like, what we're good at, and what we value are different. I would be happy if you could realize that no two people are the same, that means you are unique, and that each of you is important. In this album, "Number Face," the music expresses a sympathy with the var…

This 12-track album is the artist's first album released after changing from his stage name to his real name, Hidetoshi Koizumi. The songs were composed with the hope that they would be an opportunity for listeners to receive "signals" they need. Signals are everywhere. When aware of them, they touch the listener and evoke emotions and thoughts relating to various things around them that have influenced them. In life, we all are influenced by things such as the environment, nature, and other peo…
