Lemegeton Party
Lemegeton Party is the narcotic and occluded industrial-ambient debut for the Junkie Flamingos, a project conceived in 2017 by Luca Sigurtà, Alice Kundalini, and Daniele Delogu. Each of these musicians has their distinctive sounds: Sigurtà with his vertiginous electronica, Kundalini best known as the author behind the death industrial project She Spread Sorrow, and Delogu in the bombastic folk of the Barbarian Pipe Band. Their collective amalgamation shifts but does not denude each of these aest…

Generic Targz
**300 copies** Soda Gong presents a razor sharp collection of rigorous and imaginative new music from Russian musician and producer Flaty. Generic Targz places Flaty's precipitously complex drum programming and keen ear for atmosphere and space at the forefront, offering up a dynamic array of techno, ambient, generative footwork, and other tougher to pigeonhole rhythmic experiments. It is a dizzying and cohesive document in which ethereal productions, such as Praaai wherein a bewitching vocal pa…

Equivalents
Canadian composer Scott Morgan’s 12th long-player as Loscil takes its title from an influential series of early 20th century photographs by Alfred Stieglitz, abstracting clouds into miasmic, painterly canvases of smoke and shadowplay. It’s a deeply fitting analog for Morgan’s own musical process across the past two decades, fraying forms and tones into widescreen mirages of opaque texture and negative space. The name Equivalents referred to Stieglitz’s notion of the photographs as being equivale…
Heavy
**300 copies** Heavy was originally produced five years ago and released in 2016 on tape via Lee Noble's seminal No Kings label.

Matteo Scaioli - being …
The Probability of an Encounter
***100 copies*** In the electroacoustic composition The Probability of an Encounter d'incise attempts to give physicality to electronic sounds, to capture their materiality as piece of cardboard moving - moving back and forth on itself, and moving relatively to microphones in a room. The loudspeaker as concrete manifestation is pushed to its functionning limits to reveal it as it breaths, vibrates, saturates, rattles in contact of other objects. The raw material made of electronic sounds created…
Filtraciones de Luz
***50 copies*** First release by Valencian electronic experimental band Mecánica Clásica.

Mastered by José Guerrero at Plataforma Continental. Chrome tapes recorded on high quality equipment by Envelope Structure.
Bird Helmet
With a sonic arsenal as comprehensive as Joakim Blattmann’s on Bird Helmet, it’s no surprise that a very particular - and abstract - atmosphere can be conjured so well. The prolific artist, whose body of work mostly consists of live performances and installations with physical music releases seeming to be a rarity, constructs a lush sound environment of avian-adjacent sonorities, from actual field recordings of birdsong to spectral electronics and manipulations that evoke wings and flight in a m…
