Even with just basic knowledge of the conditions of the totalitarian regime in the former Czechoslovak Socialist Republic (ČSSR), it is not difficult to understand why the project Maťkovia was never allowed to release anything officially during its existence from 1982 to 1987. The ironic, nihilistic lyrics full of dark humor, describing the despair and greyness of the normalization era in Bratislava in the 1980s simply had no chance of passing through the censorship at the time. The work of the …

Clairvoyant Dimensions is the first album by Mei Honeycomb, a new duo of Jordan Czamanski, renowned as a member of the acclaimed Juju & Jordash and the Magic Mountain High project, with solo work released as Jordan GCZ, and legendary saxophonist Jeff Hollie, known mostly for his work with Frank Zappa and Ike Willis. An explorative ambient album, Clairvoyant Dimensions is an exercise in distance and contemplation, and the exhilarating feeling of insight, however fleeting, like staring at the midn…

"Japanese pianist Yumiko Morioka initially released Resonance, her first and only solo recording, on Akira Ito's Green & Water imprint in 1987. Whilst by no means a commercial failure, the album was mostly found in the background of Japanese TV documentaries, maternity clinics and healing shops before drifting into relative obscurity. By 1994, Morioka had relocated to America and her solo music career had given way to the joys of starting a family and her new life in California. It was, and stil…

Milk magic, cheesy rhythms, preset delirium. Magia Láctea departs from a simple setup: a Solton arranger keyboard, used not for accompaniment but as a central sequencer. Its built-in presets - Latin, Italo, and other cheesy standardised patterns - form the starting point. Two long-form improvisations unfold from this set-up. The Solton acts as both driver and instigator, pushing and entangling the Future Retro Vectra and BARP 2600 into a dense, slightly deranged ecosystem of dairy delirium. Side…

Tape loops and noises from our friend dolphin hospital, initially they were performed live this spring in Paris, being overwhelmed during the shows, we just asked for the live recordings and decided to release them, voila!!!

Nigerian ambient producer Ibukun Sunday returns with new full length Olúsín [Worshippers], combining West African rhythmic sensibility with deep ambient sonics for a study of faith and reverence that explores the inherent stillness in worship. The record, writes Sunday, “draws inspiration from African devotional traditions, blending percussion, vocal harmony, and ambient soundscapes to create ‘a soundtrack of praise,’ centering on the idea that faith has its own music: the drumbeat of hearts, th…

The album ‘November 89’ comprises a selection of very early GAS tracks, some of which date back to the late 1980s. They were first released in 2008 as a CD insert in the art book ‘Wolfgang Voigt GAS’, published on Raster-Noton. Just like the photographs in the book, these pieces are early precursors that would evolve in the ensuing years with the albums ‘Zauberberg’ and ‘Königsforst’ into a style-defining, audiovisual “Gesamtkunstwerk” (total work of art) comprising hypnotically focused forest i…

Recorded at a pivotal moment in his trajectory, M.U.U.N.H. 31.04.1982 captures Maurizio Bianchi refining sound into a stark environment rather than a composition. Static yet volatile, it strips electronics to bare impulses, anticipating isolationist ambient and dark drone while remaining rooted in the brutal materiality of early industrial experimentation.

Iterae is issued as a multi-disc edition designed for both shelf and wall—referencing the scale of the vinyl LP while quietly subverting its familiar expectations. The format distributes the album's material across four 80mm compact discs. Each disc can be played independently or sequenced freely, extending the music's own recursive methodology into its physical presentation. A full-sized compact disc is included on the rear for continuous playback. The design incorporates an integrated rear wal…

*100 copies limited edition* Yūra (幽羅) describes a dystopian future where the last monks of humanity seek illumination through the remnants of obsolete technology. Broken circuits, residual memory, ancient intelligence and flesh are sacred instruments within a continuous rite.

All songs by Felix-Florian Tödtloff. Recorded April 2025 in Berlin, Germany. Field recording on Federaun from Villach, Austria, August 2025.

Feral Grace was written around old childhood places reclaimed by nature, or replaced by new housing estates. Places long forgotten, their purpose discarded as the world moved on. Yet the memories stay there, caught in the undergrowth, thought of once in a while. We remember gathering leaf moss from the woods for our tomato plants. Building dams in shallow streams. Filling our wellies with frog spawn and carrying it home like treasure. Small acts that felt large at the time. Fishing banks where w…

**Black vinyl, limited edition of 350 copies** Tim Clark’s The Last Question is a foundational work of cosmic electronic music, now reissued in a definitive edition that brings this elusive 1973 private-press masterpiece back into the spotlight. Originally composed and recorded while Clark was Music Director at the Strasenburgh Planetarium in Rochester, NY, these pieces were crafted as the soundtrack to the planetarium’s adaptation of Isaac Asimov’s visionary short story, The Last Question. The …

Mystery Hearsay / Mike Honeycutt was a major node of the 80s cassette culture network, his radio program in Memphis TN being a touchstone for home taping artists of a similar caliber to Don Campau‘s “No Pigeonholes”, RRRadio, or Schimpfluch’s “Psychic Rally”, all of which featured MH as an active participant. He also collaborated and traded extensively with the likes of Zan Hoffman (Larb), Minóy (Life Of Work), Swinebolt 45, and Agog. Audio and video works by Mystery Hearsay were distributed pri…

Stephen Thrower is a British musician, composer and author. In 1984 he appeared as a guest on the first Coil album, Scatology, then joined the group until his departure in 1992, contributing to seven Coil albums in total. Between 1999 and 2015 he worked as Cyclobe, a duo formed with his partner Ossian Brown (also a former Coil member). Cyclobe released four albums – Luminous Darkness, The Visitors, Wounded Galaxies Tap At The Window and Sulphur-Tarot-Garden – on their own record label Phantomcod…

Severed Heads are an Australian electronic music group founded in 1979 as Mr. and Mrs. No Smoking Sign. The original members were Richard Fielding and Andrew Wright, who were soon joined by Tom Ellard. Fielding and Wright had both left the band by mid-1981 with Ellard remaining the sole consistent member for the rest of the band's existence. In 1984 the band released Dead Eyes Opened as a single, which was remixed in 1994 and re-released, reaching No. 16 on the ARIA Singles Chart. Two of their s…

Hunting Lodge are an American industrial/experimental band formed by Lon C. Diehl, Richard Skott and Carla Nordstrom (then known as Karl Nordstrom) in Port Huron, Michigan in 1982. Their first live appearance took place in September 1982 at the Harrington Ballroom inside the Harrington Hotel. The event was recorded on a portable cassette player and would become their first release on their own S/M Operations label. Nomad Souls LP was released in the fall of 1984 on S/M Operations in the U.S., an…

Sewer Election is an act which at this point requires no introduction - a mainstay of the Swedish and International noise community for decades. "Cadavres Électroniques" is a new collaboration between Sewer Election and Aziza - a hidden gem in the Gothenburg underground that emerged out of the scene around Longest Night a few years back, creating pitch black, cold and slow moving ambient music reminiscent of Maurizio Bianchi at his bleakest (read: Endometrio and such). A surreal blend of rudimen…

"Drift was a relatively short-lived project created by Gabriele  Giuliani. Better known through his notorious nom de plume, Dead Body Love. Within the course of only a few short years, Drift released a dozen sought after releases on such legendary imprints as Slaughter, Old Europa Cafe, SSSM, Harmonie, and his own Less Than Zero, before fading behind the curtains Exile was not only the debut release by Drift, but also the beginning to a trilogy of cassettes released on Slaughter Productions. It …

"Second in the trilogy of Drift albums released on SlaughterProductions, The Beyond takes on a minimal yet darker approach, sheding the dense cavernous aspect of the preceding album, Exile. Replaced, is a more introspective Autumnal Dark Ambient style, which will become Drift's trademark on following releases. However, Gabrielle Giuliani never abandons the isolationist atmosphere he previously established. The result is a masterwork in Ambient Industrial Noise.  Winds howl, rain soaked leaves ar…

"On Earthquake, the third and final cassette released on Slaughter Productions, Drift takes on a slightly different angle to the previous  two cassettes. Where as The Beyond and Exile were firmly planted in pitch black ambient territory, the desolation on Earthquake is Saharan. Bright, Sirocco, and sun scorched. Afterall, who said Dark Ambient needs to be cold? In a sense, the listener is transported to an abandoned archaeogical dig while faint middle eastern tones waver in and out of the surfac…

*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition. CD + 2 x A2 posters, offset, 80 gr uncoated paper* Composed, performed, and recorded by Christian Di Vito with a self-built synthesizer.

A collection of recent tracks, recorded by the Organum core of David Jackman, Michael Prime, Dinah Jane Rowe and Jim O'Rourke; further mastering of sound cluster presentation and development.

Shimmering and deeply inward-looking, A New Life finds Florian TM Zeisig tracing grief, anger and stillness as one continuous current of sound. Harp, saxophone and cello drift through long ambient chords, shaping a 41-minute spiral that treats emotion not as rupture but as radiant, integrated presence.

A collection of previously unreleased material (between '75 & '90) by Enno Velthuys.Compiled by Hessel Veldman.

On Towers Of Silence, Adult Fantasies’ Belgi‑dirge pop blooms anew: slow‑burn songs where Nico‑ish ennui, Coil‑like dread and late‑night guitars seep through perfectly sequenced, woozy mixes that feel like memories you’re sure you never lived.

On Spoki, Ingus Bauskenieks cracks open his private sonic world: homemade electronics, odd pop instincts and spectral melodies that refuse consensus, turning “ghosts” into solitary songs built strictly on his own terms.

On Music Compilation: 12 Dances, TRJJ turn disguised authorship into groove: twelve slow, zoned, sample‑rich “dances” that treat anonymity as a filter, stitching African and American folk, free improv and loner ambient into one beautifully crooked continuum.

Original LP from 1982. "Since 1979, the Swedish Radio Company and the Stockholm Electronic Music Studio (EMS) have arranged an annual 3-day Stockholm Electonic Musik Festival. It's purpose is to present a sample of the electronic music being composed in different parts of the world. This record contains four works from the 1980 festival - two are Swedish and two are international; two are for tape and two combine tape with live performance." Lars-Gunnar Bodin: Epilogue; rhapsodie de la seconde r…

*2025 stock* Monument from Swedish composer Lisa Stenberg was composed during residency in Athens with additional recordings in Osnabrück, originally commissioned by the art festival documenta 14, as part of a collaboration between KSYME CMRC, documenta 14, Elektronmusikstudion and Fylkingen, to restore and reactivate KSYME-CMRC’s rare synthesizer EMS Synthi 100 that had not been in working condition for more than 20 years. The album features five tracks with the magnificent Synthi 100 in Athens…

On Clandestine Anticipation, Krisma leave Italo-disco behind for a humid, video‑age dystopia, nine songs where synthetic funk, proto‑industrial atmosphere, and tropical mirages collide into one of the strangest Italian pop artefacts of the early 80s.

Stern Records is proud to present Our Broken Time Machine, welcoming back Bug Bus Piano with their second full-length release on the label. As a freshly assembled puzzle swells, countless connections begin to bubble within the slowly buckling square. Some sections fall into the shadows of the new mountains, which consist of five or six bits and rising. And meanwhile there's fissures, the pieces are twisting. A thick paperboard nub tears off, held by a socket as its trunk drifts away. Moments bec…

Latest release by Rollo. Limited to 10 copies

*50 copies limited edition* Megachurch is a collaborative album by Perry Frank & Matteo Cantaluppi, featuring Marco Scipione on processed saxophone.Combining ambient textures, analog arpeggiators, and sculpted timbres, the record explores the idea of the “church” not as a religious site, but as a mental and acoustic space. It is a sonic cathedral built from echoes, delays, silences, and layered textures. The saxophone does not preach — it breathes. The synthesizers don’t lead a ritual — they rep…

2026 stock. Very last copies around. Long understood as the realm of advanced composition, plumbed only by a small handful of adventurous listeners, the spirit which began the history of tape music and musique concrète, is too often overshadowed and lost. This incredible movement, kick-started by Halim El-Dabh, Pierre Schaeffer, and Pierre Henry, shortly after magnetic tape became widely available following the Second World War, was quickly adopted by many of the most noted composers of the day,…

Formed in Taipei in 2013, Scattered Purgatory (破地獄) has occupied a liminal space between drone, ambient, psychedelic folk and ritualistic kosmiche experimentation. Their early work, including ‘Lost Ethnography of the Miscanthus Ocean’ (2014) and ‘God of Silver Grass’ (2016), blended dense instrumental drones, improvisational guitar, and ambient textures rooted in the heat, humidity, and urban pulse of Taiwan. Over the years, the duo-turned-band has drawn on Krautrock, minimalist electronic music…

Created for the Centre for Fine Arts Brussels, "Sumerian Star Creatures" premiered in 2017 as a part of Spencer Clark (The Skaters / Monopoly Child Star Searchers / Pacific City Sound Visions) and Xavier Garcia Bardon's "Imagineers in the Underworld" Film Series. Typhonian Highlife and Corum made a slithery soundtrack to intersperse between the stories of South Africas former National Laureate, Credo Mutwa; who's early work magically catalogs folk histories of the Zulu people, and later, begins …

Monumental reissue of Lucier's four-part investigation into acoustic interference. Musicians sustain tones against fixed sine waves, creating audible beat patterns that reveal the hidden architecture of sound itself

The final album released by the composer-performer Jerry Hunt before his death, Ground: Five Mechanic Convention Streams is a rare and foundational audio document of Hunt’s compositional process. The record collects five pieces from the artist’s “Ground” series, translating his characteristically variable and spatial scores into “recorded fixtures of activity using mechanic musical instrument arrays,” to eerie and mesmerizing results. Originally released by experimental label OODiscs in 1992, it…
