As Bright As A Thousand Suns
Arcana’s As Bright as a Thousand Suns Returns: A Timeless Neo-Classical Masterpiece Reissued on CD & Vinyl.
This Is Like A Dream / Total Pleasure
Tip! Minty (named after the Polari word for ‘snooty’) was formed in 1992 around legendary designer, performance artist and muse for painter Lucien Freud, Leigh Bowery. Alongside friend, and designer Richard Torry and club promoter, musician and filmmaker Matthew Glamorre, Minty was conceived to present ‘actions’ on the fringes of music, art and fashion and to explode (sometimes literally) in the face of growing homogenisation. Inheritors of the Post Punk and New Romantic scene, Bowery and crew l…
Stasis Sounds For Long-Distance Space Travel III
*200 coipes limited edition* Among the many kind remarks and deeply personal stories that have been shared with zakè and 36 about their beloved series, Stasis Sounds For Long-Distance Space Travel, perhaps the most succinct and poignant is one from a fan, regarding the first installment: “I was terrified of space travel, until I heard this album.” In those few words, the complex themes and contrasts that the artists explore through their comforting hymns of cosmic scale are summed up beautifully…
Fireside Spells
Klaus Morlock returns with Fireside Spells, an album blending eerie folk, vintage synth, and psychedelic soundscapes into a world of supernatural encounters, Cold War conspiracies, and time slipping away. Inspired by 70s horror soundtracks, lost transmissions, and forgotten folklore The title track evokes woodland rituals and ancient myths, while Henderson Makes Time shifts into 60s psychedelia, following a protagonist caught in a web of espionage and dark magic. The spectral synth work of A Gat…
Cathedral
*2025 stock* Nocturnal Emissions' releases throughout the 1980s are eclectic, adventurous and intermittently raw. 1991's "Cathedral" is something else entirely — ritualistic, expansive, awe-inducing. It is at turns warm, ominous and ethereal. We could come up with adjectives all day, but it really must be heard to be believed. Originally released by Italy's Musica Maxima Magnetica, "Cathedral" finally gets its due on vinyl with a deluxe 2xLP edition featuring a large booklet with many of Nigel A…
Allez-Teia (Heldon II)
Limited Anniversary Edition: hand numbered, White vinyl, 500 copies available! Released in 1975, this second full-length stands as perhaps the most uncompromising statement in the Heldon catalog - a work that refuses all concessions to accessibility while remaining utterly compelling from first pulse to final fade. Where the debut balanced Pinhas's most extreme impulses with moments of relative calm, Allez-Téia feels like an artist completely unleashing his vision without concern for consequence…
Hometown Girl
Groggy, engrossing new work from Ulla under their newly minted U.e. tag, riffing to the sublime on a set of (mostly) acoustic reveries that tap into the kind of smokey vapours favoured by the likes of Vincent Gallo, Voice Actor, Jonnine. Oh aye, it’s a special one.
A new year, label, album and handle for Ulla, a multifaceted artist who has draped our pages with wonder, under numerous aliases and collabs, for almost a decade. On ‘Hometown Girl’ they distill transience and flux into a quiet set of…
Forma
CEM has gained international notoriety over the past years for bewitching club and festival audiences alike with his feverish, polymorphic and richly referential DJ sets. For his debut full-length album, FORMA, the Berlin-based Herrensauna founder momentarily departs the dancefl oor, instead contributing a refl ective and at times menacing compositional study on terror and temporal anachronism for our perplexing times. All six pieces were originally commissioned to accompany Portuguese artist Ma…
I Can Hear The Grass Grow
Ecstatic presents I Can Hear The Grass Grow, the transportive new album from Mancunian duo Celestial. Expanding on the bucolic dreamstates of their previous work, this latest release unfurls like dawn mist over dewy fields, steeped in fragile fingerpicking guitar aching with hushed intimacy.
Where Listen to the Sky traced the heavens, I Can Hear The Grass Grow sinks into the earth—its organic, fungal textures blossoming in layers of acoustic and electric guitar, droning harmoniums, and shimmerin…
Spool
Spool is a multi-disciplinary, collaborative project by musician and producer Florian TM Zeisig and artist and perfumer Angel Paradise. The project came about when both artists were living in Hinang, a small farming village in the Bavarian Alps. The work embodies a period of isolation, reflection and personal awakening. Florian TM Zeisig has a distinctive ability to weave compositions that feel weightless yet deeply evocative. His music carries a profound tenderness—a soulful presence that linge…
Neither Here Nor There
Kevin Drumm's "Neither Here Nor There" transforms 2+ hours of liminal drone into revelatory ritual. Dense, meditative compositions from 2018-19 explore existential boundaries between presence/absence. Vaknar's triple cassette edition captures minimalism as focused intensity—endurance test meets religious experience.
Somewhere
Somewhere is a place we have been waiting years to experience: a climate of sounds and spirits that gathers quietly and disperses with hazy grace, the result of a chance connection and long term correspondence. Over the past decade, ambient drone composer zakè (aka Zach Frizzell) has established his identity with numerous solo works, and his open-minded approach to peers has resulted in a complement of communal efforts; Pallette (who chooses to be known only by that moniker) has crafted no fewer…

Club Tounsi
Since the release of Ammar 808's debut »Maghreb United«(2018) – a rumbling pan-North African electronic classic – the Tunisian producer has been in the vanguard of artists navigating the intersection of traditional and contemporary sonics.
His deep-rooted, room-shaking 3rd album »Club Tounsi« isn’t just a powerful statement of his Tunisian identity. It’s also a joyous celebration of the dancefloor, blending Mezoued rhythms and instrumentation with an impossibly infectious blast of bass-heavy fut…
Materia Vibrante
*100 copies limited release* Small sounds and huge drones populate the surrealistic landscape of “Materia Vibrante”, Susana López’s gorgeous new album, her third for Elevator Bath and first on vinyl. Extraordinarily evocative, this LP is filled with detail and emotive tranquility, while occasionally swelling with the intensity of a raging sea. Surely López’s most elegant and finely hewn work to date, “Materia Vibrante” offers a fully enveloping sonic meditation. The album was built from field re…
An Unfinished Rose
*300 copies limited edition* Slowly yet firmly blooming into focus, An Unfinished Rose is the new album from Australian duo Troth. This is their first since relocating to Hobart, Tasmania and their introduction to Night School Records. With a detailed web of past releases on labels A Colourful Storm, Mammas Mysteriska Jukebox, Knekelhuis and Bowman’s own Altered States Tapes imprint, An Unfinished Rose is the group’s most realised and composed work thus far. While still drawing on the improvisat…
Staying (Leaving Records Aid to Artists Impacted by the Los Angeles Wildfires)
"Everything has changed, and it is changing still. The early days of 2025 (an already baleful year, vis-a-vis America’s darkening political horizon) have wrought heretofore unimaginable destruction in the land we now call Los Angeles. The wildfires that began on the morning of Tuesday, January 7th—and which are still raging—are, in scope and intensity, unlike any other disaster, natural or manmade, in the city’s living memory. Thousands of homes destroyed. Twenty four lives lost at the time of w…
