The Habit
On The Habit, Go Hirano gathers decades of home and studio recordings into a single, slow‑glowing arc: spare piano, pianica and small percussion drifting through room tone and outdoor air, turning everyday imperfections into a warmly enchanted, lifel…
Vulcanalia
On Vulcanalia, AX - the solo vehicle of Anthony Di Franco - returns after nearly three decades to his original mandate: vast, beatless torrents of guitar, feedback and electronics, now scaled up into a molten, myth‑drunk monument to Roman fire and st…
Inside The Dream (LP)
1978 re-issue on Tapioca of one of the masterpieces originally on Pôle Records (Besombes/Rizet, Henri Roger, Pataphonie, Mahogany Brain, Verto... all on the NWW list), a beautiful otherworldly album of cosmic electronic folk and pulsing synthesizer s…
Strange City
On Strange City, Merzbow drags Sun Ra’s archival fire through a bank of howling electronics, turning rare Saturnian jazz fragments into towering, cosmic noise storms where horn blasts, rhythms and feedback fuse into a single, irradiated signal.
Une Éclipse Totale De Soleil (LP)
Very rare original edition on Celluloid of the third album from 1984 by of the most original and unclassifiable musicians of French experimental music, an unsettling masterpiece of musique concrète, sound poetry and experimental folk. NWW list.

Fake Man
Do you remember when albums used to be fourteen tracks long, with clear song structures and a sense of narrative development? No? Neither do we. And that is exactly why Artetetra is thrilled to welcome Orange Car Crash in their roster with their new …
États des lieux
Invited in September 2011 by sound engineer Philippe Teissier du Cros, double bassist Bruno Chevillon spent two days improvising alone in the Lutheran Protestant Church of Bon Secours in Paris. The building is as much a protagonist as the player — it…
Volatilités
A solo improvisation and composition by Lionel Garcin (on soprano saxophone) inspired by listening to natural environments and built on exploring the harmonic possibilities of the instrument.
Elyria Sound
On Elyria Sound, Michael A. Muller reduces his language to one guitar, one room, one storm‑lit reel of tape, turning newly invented tunings into a hushed cycle of lullabies and laments that hold both the comfort of home and the certainty of its passi…
Voice
On Voice, Sofia Jernberg compresses a lifetime of radical vocal exploration into a stark solo document, treating the larynx as full‑spectrum instrument - from split tones and pitchless friction to fragile lyric shards that hang in charged silence.
Io Pur Respiro
On Io Pur Respiro, pianist Elias Stemeseder and bassist Thomas Morgan sculpt a live duo language where Gesualdo, 1930s standards and original pieces blur into a quietly radiant continuum, guided by an unerring sense of melody, space and equilibrium.
A Broadcast Of Your Silence
And I sing again. This time I won’t whisper,
because this time it’s for you. I hear about you on the radio,
and I’ve seen the pictures of the boss and his henchmen—
Hatred and determination in their eyes.
Their actions leave no doubt:
to them, yo…
Vinti 'e Maju
The protagonists of this album embrace the complexity, diversity, and innovative power of a musical tradition that, in this case, seeks dialogue with other languages, opening itself up to innovative music. On one side, we find the prepared Sardinian …
Dans-sons as we are
With Dans-sons as we are, Audrey Lauro, Christian Pruvost and Peter Orins deliver an album shaped by subtle shifts, restrained tensions and slow transformations of sound matter. A music of listening as much as gesture, where each intervention seems t…
Vrhältnis
*300 copies limited edition* More than twenty years of friendship haunt Vrhältnis, the new album by Antoine Chessex and Dave Phillips, out now on Coherent States and Krim Kram. Its source material reaches back twenty years, originating from live perf…
Baladas
*70 copies limited edition* 'Baladas' was recorded in three days of live improvised sessions, in spring 2025. The selected takes materialize the transitory act of playing music, in a cassette. A trace on time, like a snail slime trail.
Arttu Partinen / Nikki Moran & Off Brand
*75 copies limited edition* This release celebrates a wonderful night in Edinburgh in April 2024. However (as per usual) the Arttu Partinen set was not recorded so it has been replaced with another recent live recording. This one is from the Skanu Me…
Remarkable records of a resistless course
Tip! *Dubbed on new ferro tapes* Fen Hollen takes a deep plunge into idiosyncratic samplelooping and poorly done reamping techniques. Small fragments of songs merging with chaotic instrumentals and weird microcassette malfunctions.
