Your Whistle Tells Of Landscape
Developed over three years across residencies, tours, and periods of deep listening, “Your Whistle Tells of Landscape” finds Australian sound artist Alexandra Spence continuing her investigations into the perceptual entanglements of sound, place, memory, and imagination. Like much of the artist’s work, it unfolds at the liminal edge between the real and the imagined — between what is heard and what is remembered. Composed from a constellation of materials gathered across sites and seasons — snow…
Uncontrollable Thoughts
Anushka Chkheidze + Robert Lippok’s »Uncontrollable Thoughts« on Morr Music is the duo’s debut joint release. The Netherlands-based Georgian composer and the German sound artist from Berlin first met in 2019 in the context of a workshop programme that took place in Tbilisi, and later worked with Eto Gelashvili, Hayk Karoyi, and Lillevan on the massive »Glacier Music II« music and book project, released in 2021. This led them to engage in a less conceptually driven form of musicking and real-time…
Splitting Hits For The Heat Damage
*100 copies limited edition* The chars were emerging as some chunk of makeshift swamp coolers blasted the soil surrounding our motorbikes. Sunburn vapours floating grey all around, licking our necks with heavy hazy tongues. Just oppressive and gross. Blah. Someone says heat waves are among the most dangerous natural hazards. I guess that the magnetic tides did not help at all. For sure, recreational sleep deprivation aside, it was days of relentlessly documented tipsy headaches, thermometric cic…

*2025 stock* This Monotonprodukt is a CD release of the blau vinyl written and produced by Monoton in 1980. Re-mastered in 2006. It also contains 3 unreleased tracks from that period. Since the late 70's, early 1980's, Monotonprodukt and the "Institut für wissenschaftliche Sensation" (Institute for Scientific Sensations) have been working on the transposition of metamathematical structures, natural constants and resonance patterns in models of "bionic" psycho-active automat music. Publications, …
Where Trees Go To Die
Emerging from the solitude of a remote Spanish mountain hamlet, Stone Anthem announces the release of its latest album, Where Trees Go To Die—a dense and captivating journey through organic textures, dissonant beauty, and meditative drones. Crafted in the quiet embrace of forests and the echo of stillness, the album reveals a profound synthesis of ambient trailblazers’ influence, decaying industrial landscapes, and the raw vulnerability of psychedelia.
Embracing imperfection as a creative force,…
And the Sun
As humankind strives to create artificial intelligence what will faith, love, or morality look like to a nascent consciousness? Will it be capable of understanding its creators who often hold logic and superstition within themselves? In return how will humans comprehend its hallucinations? And the Sun, a ball of hot plasma oblivious to our existence continually burns hydrogen until it runs out and swallows its three closest neighbours. Fresh from his music (as featured on these records) being pi…
Cobra
"On a remote gravel-covered spit of land on the east coast lie the abandoned buildings of a government facility for weapons testing and experiments with radar. In the mid 1960s this site witnessed the construction of an over-the-horizon radar, a technological marvel bouncing signals off the ionosphere, built to covertly monitor the activities of other nations. The reflectivity of the ionosphere is a function of frequency, time of day, time of year and of the solar cycle. In essence, a sympathy f…
Pilgrimage Of Sound 2 - Abhorrence -
2006 release ** ""Pilgrimage of Sound" is the new series of the Japanese electroacustic / experimental / noise artist Kazuya Ishigami here dealing with the concept of 'desire' seen from the plant, human and machine points of view. Kazuya sticks to the concept of "desire" with a quite radical approach, his irregular patterns of sonic abstractions could be described as intense droning assaults and the sound sources are so many and so heavily treated that they are almost impossible to be traced. St…
Multiple Personality Disorder
2009 release ** "A concept CD divided in four long parts recorded back in 1991 that fully showcase their mastery in distorting and layering guitar sounds."
Siona
2006 release ** Limited to 150 handnumbered copies. "This is released on the experimental (noise / power electronics) sub-label of The Eastern Front, which otherwise specialises in more subdued music. This is a collaboration between Flutwacht and Vincenzo Bossi, two projects from Germany, and Siona is already their eighth release. Siona was "performed and recorded live without audience", which suggests a number of options, of which a live, one-take performance is probably the most likely. This C…
Like A Packed Cupboard But Quite...
2003 release ** "The curiously titled „Like a packed cupboard but quite...“ is the 2nd release for the Dekorder label by Un Caddie Renversé dans l’Herbe a.k.a. Dídac P. Lagarriga from Barcelona, Spain after his beautiful 3“CD „Now there’s a weird taste in my mouth“. Not unlike his previous works which have been compared to the likes of Pascal Comelade, Asa Chang & Junray, Penguin Café Orchestra and Steve Beresford, the album’s using repetition and simplicity, melody and warmth, charm and a posit…
Pink
2015 release ** "Maria da Rocha's name may not be familiar to jazz and improvised music lovers in Portugal, because this Lisbon-based violinist and violist has worked primarily in the Berlin and Stockholm circuits, and much of her dedication has gone to interpreting the great composers of contemporary, classical, and baroque music. In her own projects, however, she embraces the processes and aesthetics of improvisation, and it was in this context that we heard her at Creative Fest late last year…
Soil (30th Anniversary Edition) 3LP
Deluxe 3LP set. Terre Thaemlitz's Soil receives a timely reissue, returning one of the most challenging and prescient albums of the 1990s to circulation. Originally released in 1995 as the seventh installment in Instinct Records' "Instinct Ambient" series, the album represented Thaemlitz's deliberate assault on the contradictions he perceived within the contemporary ambient movement. When Thaemlitz signed with Greenwich Village's Instinct imprint, the label assumed he would be "another Moby," pr…

Basing his work on compositions by Cuban guitarist-composers José Angel Navarro and Hector Angulo, Zanetti recreates the spiritual essence of Santería batá drum songs in a groundbreaking collection that bridges cultures and musical traditions. Santería, the Afro-Cuban syncretic religion also known as La Regla de Ocha, emerge…
Whitby
David Boulter, best known as a long-time member of Tindersticks, returns to Clay Pipe Music with Whitby - an evocative mini album inspired by the stark beauty and unsettling calm of England’s North Yorkshire coast. Unlike the familiar seaside towns of his youth - Great Yarmouth, Scarborough, Filey - Whitby held no particular memories for Boulter until he visited with his family in the summer of 2024. "I’m constantly inspired by my surroundings, or memories of them," he says. "Sat on an almost de…
Northern Minimalism 4
Mat Handley returns to his South Yorkshire inspired Pulselovers project with a bold new chapter in the acclaimed Northern Minimalism series. What began as a deeply personal tribute to the region’s industrial, post-punk and synth-pop legacies has now evolved into a sprawling, 20-track remix project released via Castles in Space's new CD imprint, Lunar Module. The double CD includes remixes from a stellar cast of electronic artists: Aural Design, Apta, Pefkin, Grey Frequency/Blue Room, Sulk Rooms,…
Njurra Wänja
"The process of making music together in Hand to Earth is unlike any other we have experienced. It is not free improvisation but it is not composed either. It is somewhere in between, and it feels like ‘weaving.’ Through Hand to Earth, we weave the threads of our different histories, different lives, and different perspectives together, and become family. Daniel weaves the ‘Manikay’ (public songs) in his first language, Wagiläk - into the syntax of our shared practices. He talks about the ‘rak…
Moonbuilding Summer 2025 (How Did We Get Here?) (Magazine + CD)
Good lord, Moonbuilding Issue 6 has taken its sweet time. But don’t look at us, this handsome A5 zine has a mind of its own. Magic like this is out of our hands. Or as ABC’s ‘Poison Arrow’ put it, “she comes when she comes”. But it’s here. Finally. And anyway, in the grand scheme it’s best not to ask how it’s happened, but how quickly you can get your hands on a copy.
So what have we got? Well, taking pole position on the cover of the Summer 2025 issue is the utterly unique Loula Yorke. In our b…
WVLT
WVLT is the newest sonic addition from WNDFRM (Portland-based, Tim Westcott), an album of eight distinct explorations exploring the many facets of experimental IDM. Tim Westcott’s practice is rooted in an acute, nearly forensic attention to sound. Subtle tones, sculpted drones, and lean percussive gestures, always pursued with a patient ear and obsession with sound design. With previous releases on Prologue, Home Normal, and Dragon’s Eye Recordings, and several live performances at Mutek, a new …
