The Sundowner Sessions
Not previously released on vinyl. Originally recorded in Seattle, in 2000 and released on CD only later the same year The Sundowner Sessions is a recording featuring John Massoni (electronics) and Sonic Boom (custom human voice synthesizer). "[Sonic} can make something out of almost anything. He'd just pick out a tape of mine (I have a bunch of tapes with sound and drone experiments), and work something into a piece. His focus and ability not to be undermined by the limits surrounding him is rea…

Hexerei Im Zwielicht Der Finsternis
Aghast was a project by Nebelhexe and Nacht, released in 1994. This album was released back then by the legendary Cold Meat Industry and is now presented in a great re-edition Vinyl by Eternal Pride. "Hexerei Im Zwielicht Der Finsternis" is the real dark and gloomy ambiance played in a classical dark wave vein. Minimalism in musical content, compensated by spooky and ice-cold vocals that will haunt you. Macabre enchantresses will seduce you and take you to their ghastly realm. Hear gods cry and …
Beaubourg
* Aquamarine coloured vinyl * Beaubourg is an expressionistic work, consisting almost exclusively of strange, unearthly sounds. Ring modulators, noise, and weird effects are unleashed in wide stereo spaces. The album is often referred to as anti-commercial, because of its non-melodic - even consonant - nature. Vangelis however spoke with great affection about this piece in several interviews and his engineer says Vangelis took it very seriously while recording it. "Beaubourg" takes its title fro…
Eminent Risk Factor
Internationally acclaimed sound artists Helmut Schäfer and Zbigniew Karkowski met for the first time in 1997. From then on, they maintained a close friendship and worked together on several collaborations, performances and music projects. Then years later, in April 2007, Helmut passed away. "Eminent Risk Factor" gathers recordings from the last 2 concerts and studio session they ever made together. The master was finished on the last day they ever saw each other.
In memory of Helmut Schäfer (19…
Under A Single Banner
It's been a busy couple of years for the producer behind the Shifted project. On top of an extremely well-received album for the Mote Evolver label, the producer has edged further out into the fringes of electronic music under a number of aliases, taking in noise/ambient variants as Covered In Sand, as well as more distorted, technofied productions under the Alexander Lewis moniker, a sound described by the Blackest Ever Black label as "S-M techno." His new album as Shifted, Under a Single Ba…
Improvisational Loops
Terekke herds his wooliest flock of ambient Improvisational Loops for Music From Memory following the cultishly-acclaimed Plant Age album for L.I.E.S.. This time he evaporates any trace of percussion to leave listeners wrapped up in billowing harmonic structures with a deeply meditative, almost anaesthetising effect set to resonate with a raft of new ears.
It’s perhaps not surprising that Matt Gardner a.k.a. Terekke conceived his second LP as an aid for yoga in the esoteric-functional style of t…
Clouds
Music From Memory's fourth release sees the Amsterdam based label taking an exciting sidestep with the release of “Clouds”, an album of contemporary music recorded in spring 2014. “Clouds” is the debut album of Gaussian Curve, a collaboration between Italian ambient pioneer Gigi Masin, Land Of Light’s Jonny Nash and Marco Sterk (also know as Young Marco).
Each of them established in their own rights, the three musicians from Italy, UK and the Netherlands, came together during a weekend long reco…
Cogitate
Cogitate is the first release from NYC local Promoter and an invitation to gaze inward and sit with sound. Borne of hours lost in loops, Promoter calls forth deep, dubby bass rumble, off-kilter rhythms and murky atmospherics, relishing in repetition and evolving subliminally but surely. Disorienting, engaging and engulfing, Cogitate is the 4th release on NYC-based Patience, catching you off guard then inviting you in.
Cogitate offers two cuts from the same cloth - one locked into the grid, the o…
A Mimesis Of Nothingness
Siavash Amini returns to Hallow Ground with "A Mimesis of Nothingness", his fourth album for the Swiss label. Following up on "Harmistice" together with fellow Iranian artists 9T Antiope, the six tracks were conceived in close collaboration with another artist and see the prolific composer intensify his interdisciplinary approach. The six tracks enter a dialogue with the photographs of Nooshin Shafiee, an acclaimed artist whose work capturing their hometown Tehran becomes the starting point for …
Hidari Ude No Yume
Ryuichi Sakamoto's third solo album "Hidari Ude No Yume" (Left Handed Dream) was originally released in 1981 on the Alfa label. Save for a small-scale Dutch vinyl release in 1981, it is the first time the album's original Japanese edition is released outside of Japan (the European release on Epic Records included significantly different tracks and mixes). Newly remastered from the original tapes by renowned engineer Bernie Grundman, this LP edition comes with original artwork featuring a striki…

* Edition of 300. Chrome cover and Black & white insert. * Amédée De Murcia aka Somaticae is a regular of our label, first recording industrial music and techno under this moniker (his first properly distributed album, Catharsis, back in 2013), then powerful digital noise (Electricité, part of the IPX CD series) and a bunch of outstanding tapes on some of the best French DIY labels toying with the format (Fougère, Tanzprocess). Like France Sauvage who recently released on the label, Amédée De Mu…
Aperio!
* 180 gram Vinyl * The title of Miki Yui’s seventh solo album “Aperio!” is derived from the latin origin of April, "aperire" meaning “to open” or “to reveal”. Hinting at the way her music unveils another reality which is hidden beneath the surface. The title also reflects the aperiodic character of the music, its irregularity. Like a magic word to reveal the mysterious cosmos, each song opens up another intimate world of wonders."All my work emerges from my physical experience, the inspiration o…
Preparing For Power
Mannequin and Platform 23 Records reissue what is considered to many the most complete album by perennial anarcho-outsiders Bourbonese Qualk. The last recorded album at their South London squat, The Ambulance Station on the Old Kent Road, and again released on their own Recloose Organisation, saw the band develop further beyond the limits of the post-punk / industrial scene where genres increasingly became redundant.
Ethno, jazz, funk and EBM are all buried deep in the album as it seeks independ…
Colossus
Limited to 300 copies, the LP is packaged in a high gloss laminated sleeve and has a printed lined inner **Dirty Cantaloupe coloured edition** Andrew Liles 'Colossus was initially released as a download project that consisted of 50 tracks all of which were 50 minutes long. It was completed on 11th March 2019, Liles' 50th Birthday. Part One and Two of the download version combined are over 41 hours of music. The songs are extreme, simple, complex, mellow, angular and often surreal adaptations o…
A Clockwork Orange (An Imaginary Soundtrack To The Book)
This record is an "imaginary soundtrack" to Anthony Burgess's book. It is NOT IN ANY WAY to be confused with Kubrick's superb score to his excellent film. This was originally issued with appalling artwork and unfinished masters by a company called "Dressed To Kill". It is finally now finished and properly remixed/remastered. Orange and mauve vinyl.
Stones of Precious Water
The title of guitarist Barry Cleveland’s 1986 album - Stones of Precious Water - conjures images of incandescent gems, harvested from hallowed streams and held aloft to glimmer and catch the light in their many facets. And perhaps this is the truest analogue for the music contained therein. Recorded between 1981 and 1983, in mostly improvised recording sessions, the disparate nature of Stones’ creation is alluded to only by the breadth and variety of sounds it encompasses. Stones of Precious Wat…
Heroin
**LP + 12". Incl. printed inner sleeves, edition of 500 copies** Between Christmas 2000 and New Year 2001 producers Ekkehard Ehlers and Stephan Mathieu recorded an album of warm, soft, delicately crackling electronic music in the space of that week. It was christened with the ambivalent title "Heroin" and was released on CD via the label Brombron in 2001 and later in 2003 re-issued on Kit Clayton's Orthlorng Musork on double-LP with remixes the pair had commissioned as expansions.
17 years l…
