Slates
* 2021 LP edition * compiles the six tracks from the original EP release, their March 1981 Peel session and an early '80s studio outtake. Liner notes by Brian Turner. If The Fall truly is a cult band, then Slates both benefits from and reinforces such shrouded obsessions. In presenting these six particular songs as a 10-inch EP, the inherent and attractive difficulty of The Fall's sound is made physical, framing the urgency of their singles from this period (notably How I Wrote 'Elastic Man' an…
Sirocco: A Compendium Of Experimental Music Made In Portugal Vol.2
As famous as the Northern Wind or Mistral, Sirocco is a Mediterranean wind that blows from the Sahara Desert, and is widely responsible for huge and cinematic sand storms, and also for a strange phenomenon called “blood rain”, due to the red sand that eventually mixes with the falling rain. I’ve also heard that “Life is in the blood“, so let the wind blow! Without any further delay, Wasser Bassin proudly presents: Rafael Toral, Han, Tózé Ferreira, The Beautiful Schizophonic, Discmen, Gala Drop…
Stencil
* 200 copies * Boche’s third album in 25 years, on solid vinyl, that unites outtakes from his beat-oriented early phase with ambient pieces, generated mainly from manipulated shortwave radio recordings. The album culminates in “Stolid Rounder”, one of his key tracks from the late 1980s: deeply pulsing audio feedbacks explore stereophonic space. The sleeve, with cover art by Marc Behrens, includes a laser cut stencil of the original Boche logo for your personal DIY Boche branding! Sweet!

Soul Metabolisms / Untitled
Around the 3rd or 4th year into the journey, while recovering from health complications, I’ve suddenly and unexpectedly began to notice the first traces of human existence in the captured audio. There had been hints of that already, but never before had they been this clear. The source could be some old magnetic tape sound recordings or some modern machinery (maybe to their time), but most of the sounds were clearly human, telling stories of lives not unlike our own.”Invoking the claustrophobic …
I See Wind, I Hear Voices
I See Wind, I Hear Voices” is Tam’s debut on Wasser Bassin. The label’s second is now aimed to the dancefloor, and – we ought to say – it is a mean dancefloor: Powerful kick-drums, fat basslines and acid synths, all wrapped up in low-motion House dynamics
I See Wind, I Hear Voices
Originally released as privately pressed K7, Praga De Urubu Só Pega Em Cavalo Magro (Vulture’s Plague Only Catches a Thin Horse), is the result of a Tropa Macaca live performance in the emblematic Lisbon venue Lux, circa 2012. The long ecstatic piece, lasting over 21 minutes, builds up slowly – much like a vulture hovering patiently over its prey, waiting for the opportunity to claim its reward.

Revolution Shuffle
Michael Pisaro-Liu's latest work. 106 tracks, one minute each. Six-panel digipak with two discs.
Negative Infinity
"Negative Infinity" is a sort of return-to-form in a regard, featuring 6 tightly scripted doses of what they call "Brutal Prog" - the tag Weasel coined in the early 2000s to describe an elite breed of intense, complex bands who emphasised harshness and intensity over the typical prog-rock flutes and fairies positivity. This is prog for the Aocalypse, not your uncle.
Symposium

Slow Dark Green Murky Waterfall
* Limited Edition Green Vinyl. Mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi, artwork by Mica Levi and Eliza McCarthy* Mica Levi returns to Slip with six piano pieces played by Eliza McCarthy in ‘Slow Dark Green Murky Waterfall’ - a crepuscular suite riddled with Mica’s inquisitive, conversational phrasing and smartly expanding upon their 7” track, ‘Riding Through Drinking Harpo Dine’ [Foom, 2017], a new recording of which also appears in this set. Gorgeous music, especially recommended if yr into Terre Thaemlitz…

Lament & Rejoice
**Edition of 60 copies ** Lament & Rejoice is a debut album by a Finnish experimental musician Juho Toivonen. Dubbed on to a 30-year old Hardcore Punk tape found from Toivonen`s rehersal room in Pori, the hissing album experiments with continuous sound created either with clarinet, viola, synthesizer and chants - or just with piano and synthesizer. In these two pieces you`ll find sounds and energies being emancipated for the purpose of unity.

Phoney Recs (Tape)
**Edition of 58 copies ** An endearingly crackly lo-fi collection from New Zealander Anthony Milton " Its been a long while since I recorded any music, still been playing but I drowned my last tape recorder crossing a river in the Ruahine Ranges.

These were mostly done on an autumn afternoon in 2012. One layer was recorded on my knees in the bush.…

Satanic Nafs
In Islamic psychology, each person has an aspect of the Self called the “Nafs” which is divided into multiple layers. Every day, a person enters into a spiritual battlefield with their dark side, their lowly desires, and Satan. Satanic Nafs is thus the lowest level of the self, due the love of oneself and evil desires. Achieving spiritual transformation involves a constant struggle against the lower nature of the self (Satanic Nafs). This struggle led Jaubi to discover the concept of “Nafs”. T…
