Quiet Water
**500 copies** Released only on cassette and CD in 1986, Paul & Mark made Quiet Water from a single guitar and a Yamaha DX synth. Quiet Water consists of the amazing 'Summer Daydream' and 'Restful Sleep' that clocks in over 20 minutes.

Prepare for a musical journey. A journey that you probably never have been on before.

Boomkat: "Geir Jenssen yields a most Biosphere of Biosphere recordings with this new album recorded on a Norwegian island within the arctic circle. Leading on from recent years’ ‘Departed Glories’ and ‘Petrified Forest’, the 66 minute long and 17-track wide suite of ‘The Senja Recordings’ arguably amounts to the most significant Biosp…
Living Space
Following Slow Fade for Hard Sync (2009) and Location Momentum (2010), Living Space is Eleh's third physical release for Touch. Seven years in the making, this new release consolidates the artist's parallel narrative between a series of vinyl and CD releases for Important Records -- where the emphasis is on a minimalist aesthetic -- to a visual counterpoint that hints at the cinematic and painterly qualities of the music. Sound, as a healing force, is an idea as old as the medium itself. Inspire…
Migrations
**300 copies** Recorded in Holme Fen nature reserve, Cambridgeshire, with two JrF contact microphones on 22nd to 25thMay 2020.

Seamons
Chra is the artist moniker for Austrian Christina Nemec (Bray, Shampoo Boy). Seamons is the latest missive in her ongoing exploration of suffocating abstract audio. At once designed and falling apart Seamons is rough and crude, a stumbling and staggering electronic expedition where nothing presents itself explicit in intent. It’s a tense obscure record that teases you into it’s peculiar vortex from it’s suggestive nature of exploring the enigma beyond it’s haunted facade.

Coda
In recent years, the Turkish drone-pop composer Ekin Fil (born Ekin Üzeltüzenci) has been refining her talents in the realm of the film score. Since her first recordings that were published by Root Strata and Students of Decay, she has always exhibited a preternatural ability to express the saddest of emotions through sound. Once channeled through the lens of a gauzy shoegazing smear of guitars and voice, she has peeling away layers of her ephemeral songs to reveal their emotional core. That com…

Death Of The Slave
**In process of stocking. 249 copies 7" vinyl in heavyweight pocket sleeve with spine** Death Of The Slave is the debut 7" EP from new Japanese heavyweight Linekraft. The ideas presented on the recent "Engineering Analysis Of Inner Death" LP on Hospital Productions, and cassettes on Zaetraom & Old Europa Cafe are condensed into a veritable 1-2 punch industrial single. Human screaming, distorted vocals, crashing junk and oil drum abuse layered on top of analog synth lines go to further the existi…

Darkness Over Najaf
**In process of stocking. Edition of 199 copies in pro-printed covers with double sided insert.** This album marks years of evolution of Herukrat's sound from a more basic harsh noise to pulsing power electronics, while continuing the tradition of heavy sampling and up-front and powerful vocals. For me this album is conceptual in two parts, first and most obvious is the focus on the United States Invasion of Iraq in 2003. I vividly remember being 12 years old and becoming captivated during the n…
Onomatopée Suicida
Limited edition of 100 copies on transparent magenta vinyl with A2 poster.** Active for nearly 40 years, Incapacitants are without a doubt one of the best noise groups of all-time. The duo of T. Mikawa and F. Kosakai are legendary for their chaotic recordings and over the top live performances.

Swanyard
**2CD in a 6-panel Digipak, second pressing in white color** 150 minutes of previously unreleased material from Coil, strewn with parts that would eventually metastasise into Backwards, and ultimately Black Light District and Musick To Play In the Dark.We hardly need to stress that Swanyard is a bounty for Coil nuts out there, but equally a fascinating listen for anyone attempting to get to grips with their unfathomable catalogue - especially DJs and listeners currently digging into the underbel…
