Against Proper Objects
On their debut release, Foster shifts fluidly between tongue slaps, overblown tones, and powerful tenor saxophone screams, while Crawford alternates between non-idiomatic splatter, frenzied banjo maneuvers, and dense, elusive bursts of tangled noise. Meanwhile, Sullivan crafts a metallic clatter that establishes its own expansive sonic territory.
String Figures, Serenade (2LP Bundle)
** Special bundle, Black Vinyl ** For the first time, Elevator Bath presents two complementary masterworks of contemporary sound art in an exclusive bundle offer. Felicity Mangan's debut vinyl String Figures and label founder Colin Andrew Sheffield's latest opus Serenade represent the full spectrum of electroacoustic innovation—from quasi-bioacoustic environmental hybrids to plunderphonic archaeological excavations.
While Mangan maps the liminal frequencies where wetland ecosystems meet electrom…
22 BĪJA
*22 copies limited edition* To paraphrase Éliane Radigue's famous double 7" record, the two discs you hold in your hands are designed to be listened to either separately or simultaneously, synchronously or asynchronously. Similarly, the sides of these two discs can be played at any speed and in either direction. It is also permissible to scratch the record, block the arm to form a loop, intervene freely... The only limit is that set by your turntable.
For those who enjoy listening to music diff…
Landscape Music 5
*2025 stock. 200 copies limited edition* And the cloud passes overhead. A drone crosses, reminding us of the whole summer outside. You just have to look up. Over the wall, can’t you see the courtyard and the hill covered with pines, at the base of which lie ancient barns that have better withstood the test of time than the castle. The fountain’s jet still makes its noise in the basin, under the gray stone watchtower. From here, the path always leads to Grand’rive under the damp cover of the beec…
Tristesse Apotropaïque
*17 copies limited edition* Tristesse Apotropaïque is the mesmerizing new sonic statement from the trio Apparet! (Jeanne Gorisse / Julien Goussina / Marina Levallois), released via the adventurous nanopublisher MMLI. Recorded live in Lorfou just before the winter solstice, this unique project brings together Gorisse’s double bass, Goussina’s piano, and Levallois’ imaginative synthesizer and effects setup, born from a spontaneous, joyful musical encounter that channels playful experimentation and…
Immersion Libre
*97 copies limited edition* Free immersion is a practice that consists of freediving as low as possible and then climbing back up by gripping the rope that serves as a guide. No help, no artifice, everything happens with the strength of the arms. The fall into the depths is dizzying and the feeling of freedom, total.
4+1 pieces of double bass played with a bow, without artifice, recorded almost in one go. This record is deliberately abrasive without being aggressive, and reserves surprises of so…
Ermitage De La Fumée Violette

Lore
*2025 stock. 43 copies limited edition* MMLI proudly presents Lore, the latest sonic offering from Cigve, an artist whose work folds shadowed textures, forgotten myths, and fractured harmonies into an immersive listening experience.
Both austere and deeply emotive, Lore moves between spectral ambience, brittle dissonance, and moments of fragile melodic clarity. The work feels as though it has been unearthed from an ancient archive, where memory and invention blur. Each track evokes the sensati…
ZIZ זיז
*2025 stock. 62 copies limited edition* This winter we received an email asking us if we were interested to publish this. We immediately decided to publish that. Below is the text we received about this and that:
« In the years 2021-22, PBK and DSM began to conceptualize a split release on cassette tape with the title, “ZIZ”. With each side acting as a mirror to the other, PBK and DSM skillfully reflect on each other’s audio creations. The parallelism extends beyond the music itself. Both sides …
Malmö 2025
*100 copies limited edition* Documenting a scene? Or creating one? Here is an attempt to present a audio snapshot of whats stirring in the experimental Malmö underground in 2025. Four lengthy tracks from some of the most interesting artists residing in the city.
On side A of this compilation Slug Mass brings us a weeping free jazz ballad that serves as an excellent example of their ongoing mission to reclaim the original definition of the term "post rock", in other words "using rock instrumentat…
Arteria
Tip! Over the past decade, saxophonist Makoto Kawashima has consistently established himself as one of the most compelling improvisers in contemporary music. His unique approach to solo performance aligns him with the tradition of groundbreaking Japanese saxophonists like Kaoru Abe, Tamio Shiraishi, and Masayushi Urabe. Operating at the fringes of improvised music, Kawashima's artistry unveils a delicate essence, placing equal focus on silence and minute detail alongside intense expressions of t…
To Hit A Pressure Point
Lao Dan's innovative approach to music seamlessly intertwines elements of rock, free jazz, and noise with textures of Chinese folk music, creating a unique tapestry characterized by improvisational and aesthetic tension. His fearless transgression of genres, infusing Chinese folk-tinged free jazz with the raw energy of punk, results in a compelling and dynamic listening experience.
Pressure Sensitive
Paula Sanchez is a musician working with sound in the intersection of experimental music, improvisation and performance art. Putting the body and materials to the limit, in the destruction, composition/decomposition of a mutable sound space. In the pure presence, of an embodied sound that invents relations as it makes its way into nothingness.
This album is the result of performative experimentations with cello and cellophane, and erotic encounters of transparent asphyxiation.
Vagabondage
Vagabondage comes from my idle wandering through the city and my inner relationship with it - where the unexpected takes me – I take it - desire driven. Assuming the discourse between the ruins of my memory and my present idleness, I seek to let the events influence my choices in a way they unfold from this relation between my personal history and reflected in my music through my interaction with the city.
This album was recorded in three different places of Lisbon: SMUP, Desterro and Casa do Co…
Vents
Vents is seemingly a musical wind trio - humans playing with flutes, airdrums, bubbles… Although, in each set-up, material has its own vitality.
The Lo Yo Yo
London’s The Lo Yo Yo was conceptualized by John “Alig” Pearce in 1984 after his primary group, the deservedly legendary Family Fodder, went dormant. Soon enough a few others were enlisted to round out the quartet, including Mick Hobbs of The Work and Officer! fame, alongside friends Joey Stack and Carrie Brooks. The Lo Yo Yo took elements from their other groups and, in the tradition of somewhat like-minded acts like The Raincoats, Naffi and Amos & Sara, added a strong dub/reggae element.

O Tilli
*2025 stock. 200 copies limited edition* Donnimaar is a music and visual arts project by Marie Kølbæk Iversen. The focus is on the magical songs of West Jutland that were documented in the 19th century by the Danish folklore collector Evald Tang Kristensen. The project is rooted in the partially forgotten and repressed ethnographic material, which also includes traditional songs that Marie Kølbæk Iversen’s great-great-great-great-grandmother passed on to Tang Kristensen, and which, in their narr…
The Disc
*2025 stock. 250 copies limited edition* The record brings together key positions from the web-based project of www.joyfully-waiting.ch, now gathered on one physical object. The red colored vinyl is complemented by a whole series of printed supplements, a real grab bag.

A sort of time capsule curated by Joyfully Waiting / Nathalie Rebholz. …
Les Mortes
*2025 stock* The project is a musical composition that employs the technique of deriving and expanding upon the fragmentary. It is an investigation that is, in advance, lost in the midst of stories that come back again and again, told in disorder, illuminated from other angles or revealed by new links. Les Mortes is a sonic saga that brings together three musical ensembles with different aesthetics navigating among these bits and pieces of a whole of which we have only the echo.

GOD O: Music For A Gallery Opening
The Residents are an American art collective best known for their over 60 studio albums that were recorded over a period of over forty years. They also created some outstanding multimedia works, mainly three CD ROM projects and more than ten DVDs. Charles Bock was a pseudonym that Hardy Fox, co-founder and primary composer for the group, used from 2012 to 2017. About a dozen albums were released using that name until Fox started using his real name for his solo recordings. "GOD O" was the openin…
