The Absurd Silence Of A Mute World
*300 copies limited edition* Initiated at the beginning of the year 2022, Olomuhd is a shared vision bringing together multi-instrumentalists Samuel Vaney (Cortez, Muhd, Fargue) and long time collaborator Loïc Grobety (OLO, Convulsif). Sharing a common passion for abrasive textures, deconstructed rhythms, enveloping and dense layers, this album, presented as a single track, is a distinct entity, an ageless and lush exploration, at times contemplative and airy, at times impetuous and massive. It …
Phantom Pinnacles
*300 copies limited edition* A new face in the already profound roster of Harlow MacFarlane’s (Funerary Call, Stars Without Light...) body of work, Phantom Pinnacles presents a dense Odyssey of tragic themes and long-lost moments. From the first to the last echoed fragment, Between Voices presents a fragile ambience that only exists in a reawakening memory from the forgotten corners of the mind.Vignettes of swarming synthesizers and humbled symphonies weave into off-kilter, melancholic melodies,…
Ginnungagaldr
New opus from the ever enigmatic ritual act Undirheimar. Ginnungagaldr is the result of over 3 years of contemplative, ritual and shamanic based work centered on the uncreated primordial nothingness of pre-creational chaos. Not inspired by the lore, but through personal experience, which, in fact, differs in certain aspects from the already established and published work. There is not one unique path. There are countless streams flowing toward the vast black ocean, the source. Just as there are …
Rife
Isolde Touch is Asha Sheshadri, a composer and multimedia artist based in Southern California. Secretary of Sensation is a seven-chapter narrative occurring in Our Town (1052–1119). Voice, synthesis and original text. The music Asha Sheshadri makes as Isolde Touch is boldly literal. Perhaps literal is inexact; concrete is closer, as her sounds have a clarity that ties them directly to their origins (a piano is exactly a piano). Conceptually she deals in abstraction, but sonically she’s unafraid …

Modus Vivendi
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Sweden's enigmatic musician Marcus Lönebrink returns after a long hiatus with his follow-up to the highly acclaimed album "Akrasia" (Cyclic Law 2007). "Modus Vivendi" continues his introspective sonic pilgrimage into the vast terrain residing in the intermissions between failure and salvation. Contemplation of stasis as a way of life leads into a paradox: beneath the dormant surface of fossilised and frozen inner landscapes, underlying movement continues …
Dreams And Illusions
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* New album from Sweden's cult act LẼTUM. Since 2001 Mathias Henriksson has forged his way through dense tapestries of sonic angst. His latest opus is weaved from nightmarish visions from an out-of-body experience, a breach in existence. Life, death and time become one, manifesting and dissolving. LẼTUM's mournful minimalist soundscapes are as always expertly controlled and display unique compositional skills and emotive depth. Pure and Transcendental.Editi…

Climate change is…

Slow moving, sorrowful reveries of rich organ tones, repetitive patterns and plaintive melancholy offers a poignant and compelling narrative…
The New Backwards
"The New Backwards" was conceived by Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson in 2007, revisiting stray tracks which hadn't seemed to gel with the material he had chosen for the more somber "Ape of Naples" from 2005, Coil's initial posthumous release, a sort of requiem and a kiss-goodbye to his then recently deceased partner John Balance. Significantly different to its sister release, this album collects the brilliantly chaotic and outrageously rhythmic material from the original sessions for the album tha…
Politiken der Frequenz
Edition of 300 copies. Comes in neon-coloured jewel-case (5 different variants). Following a hypothesis according to which "Music and Economics share a fundamental object: number," Marcus Schmickler and Julian Rohrhuber's project Politiken der Frequenz circles around the acoustic rendering of number concepts.

Ecatombe
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "Ecatombe" is the fourth album from Italy's Black Industrial act Pavor Nocturnus. Composed and recorded between 2020 and 2021, it serves as a vessel of offerings, it collects all the emotions and thoughts that stormed during the months spent in confinement, producing a personal display of uneasiness.

Forest Of Tines (Egil Kalman Plays The Buchla 200)
*300 copies limited edition* Egil Kalman has levelled up on this one; we were stunned by his last solo opus, and on ‘Forest of Tines’, the bassist/synthesist has traded the EMS Synthi 100 for the Buchla Series 200, recording at Stockholm’s illustrious Elektronmusikstudion (EMS). Here, he builds on themes he explored on his debut with a generous 20 track double album that marks firmer lines between Scandinavian folk music and contemporary electro- acoustic minimalism.
Using woody, synthesised ton…
