Azoth : Music For The Pyramis Harp
The trio Bolt Of Void reveals signals that arrive across warped space-time. Their alchemical soundings glide through ancient forms, pulling the listener in and out of a lucid state of being. It is in this arc of descending and ascending motion that spirit is congealed from the fog of nothingness. Through a hypnogogic portal the ear is met with something intimately close and delicate, and also evading perception along a distant horizon, heard but unconfined. Sound in its ability to be perceived a…
Nothing's Gonna Hurt You
Quietly intense and deeply atmospheric, Nothing’s Gonna Hurt You unfolds through fragile textures and a persistent sense of tension. Torstensen’s music occupies the space between intimacy and distance, creating an immersive listening experience that feels both carefully composed and instinctive.
Burning Song
Kali Malone's first solo album since All Life Long, recorded over two nights on the Bach Organ of Leipzig's Thomaskirche with Lucy Railton and Stephen O'Malley. Seven pieces that abandon canon form for a slower, more intuitive unfolding of chords, steps and bridging tones.
Iuvt
Lmited to 150 units Annie Bloch’s luvt is a quiet reorientation of the organ: away from its monumental image and ritualised spaces, towards the delicate mechanics of touch, air and friction. Across seven compositions marking her debut on OOH-sounds, the Cologne based organist and composer turns to the chest organ, a small and mobile counterpart to its larger relative, traditionally used to accompany Baroque music. On luvt, Bloch limits herself to just three stops of wooden pipes, using the instr…

Music To Make Your Body Suffer
*2026 stock* Polish drummer and composer Tomek Chołoniewski presents Music To Make Your Body Suffer, a visceral and uncompromising album that treats percussion not simply as rhythm, but as a force capable of transforming the entire body. Raw, intense, and deeply physical, the record explores the boundaries between composition and improvisation, control and release, structure and collapse. In Chołoniewski’s hands, the drum kit becomes a laboratory of sound: an instrument of impact, resistance, re…

Hidden Hour

Stiltje
An album consisting of four magically shimmering instrumental works. Moreover, both the album and its sleeve are more or less transparent—in other words, the especially perceptive music lover can truly see the light through the sound.
AO is still a well-kept secret from Gothenburg: a new name from the Swedish underground, yet with long tentacles reaching back through the ages. AO creates an intelligently playful and playful music, with many dizzying points of entry, winding rooms, and smiling ex…

Arid Parallel
*2026 stock* "When two desert ecosystems collide, the arid terrain blossoms with thriving biological and geological diversity, generating the feeling of existing in two superimposed universes at once. It is deeply appropriate that Cecyl Ruehlen and Derek Monypeny–living, respectively, in the Sonoran and Mojave deserts–would meet at High Desert Soundings festival in Wonder Valley, CA, not far from where those vast southwestern deserts converge. This fated introduction, along with the duo’s shared…
Beside
2026 stock "A vibraphone, a snare drum, a knitting needle, a cymbal, and a marimba compose five flickering points: stars at the threshold between perceptibility and deep space. The constellation they form shimmers dully, its design clearly painterly, but out of grasp. I stand on the outskirts of a large city, trying to keep them all in view. But, I just can’t make out anything. So instead, I fix myself to a singular point of the five. My eyes strain and tremor as I gaze at one star amongst trill…
Split The Sky, Sheets Dipped In Chrome
*2026 stock* Split The Sky, Sheets Dipped In Chrome is a new album from Chaz Prymek & Seth Andrew Davis.

The duo first performed together in Kansas City at Farewell in December 2022 and from there developed a sound together. The music heard here varies from sparse introspection, energetic catharsis, and the exploration of a new landscape created…
It Burns With A Sweetness
*2026 stock* It Burns with a Sweetness is the culmination of the work we’ve been doing together for the past three and a half years: six studio improvisations of voice and electronics edited and mixed on late nights while borrowing our friend Drew’s speakers (thanks Drew). The album maps out the sound worlds we’ve been traversing these past years: ethereal streams, static electricity, and chewed-up slimy gibberish. Our first improvisation together was for three people, in a courtyard, with the v…
