Hidden Hour
On Hidden Hour, marine eyes preserves eighteen moments of dawn, dusk and chosen solitude in a full hour of luminous ambient drift. Cynthia Bernard’s guitars, lap steel, soft synths and field recordings turn nearby forests, coastlines and mountains into slow-moving emotional maps - music for stepping outside routine and hearing time soften.
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…
Electric Weasel Ensemble

It is a series of previously unreleased live recordings from a little-known but trailblazingensemble of improvisers—equipped with a unique embrace of invented instruments and distinctly 1970s avant-garde sensibilities.

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. This recording was a long time coming, with both Prymek & Davis in discussion for a long time about when and how to collaborate after connecting online. 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…

Ignore the Machine
*Front cover is always a unique print/passpartout* "A new duo from Berlin. By and featuring Hanno Leichtmann and Nils Ostendorf. Both are seasoned musicians with eventful careers who operate within very different artistic spheres.

Sonic Breath
*200 copies limited edition* Following the acclaimed Tectonic Plates, his celebrated collaboration with John Butcher and Mark Sanders, Alan Niblock returns to 577 Records with Sonic Breath, a striking solo work built from the elemental encounter between improvised voice and double bass. On Sonic Breath, Niblock treats the double bass not simply as an instrument but as a resonant environment for the voice. Breath, vibration, texture and gesture become the primary materials, allowing the music to …
KKAARREENNIINNAA
On KKKAAARRREEENNNIIINNNAAA, Charlemagne Palestine, Oren Ambarchi and Daniel O’Sullivan turn a 1997 “magic song” for a beloved dog’s spirit into a towering trio ritual. Organ drones, phase‑drifting cassette voices, Leslie‑swirled guitar and viola blooms coil around Palestine’s keening live chant, forming a single, dense, ecstatic invocation that feels like a séance conducted inside a vibrating cathedral.

Dry Spell
*2026 stock* Alluvium, a collaborative project of Nika Kaiser and Nathan Stickel, uses a combination of composed and improvised video projection, field recordings, and experimental sound. They create performative installations responding to site-specific details within each of their works, drawing ties between the political and the spiritual. The geologic phenomenon of alluvium occurs when loose clay, silt, or sand has been deposited by running water in a streambed or floodplain for an impermane…
Gate
*2026 stock* Bolt of Void was sleeping in the dark, earthen soil for almost 7 years, and like the locust, the group emerged again, anew -- Gate is a wormhole, unlocked ceremonially -- A star-gate traversal that reaches terminal velocity and the feeling of moving forwards, backwards, and not at all become the same. Centered around extreme noise, drone clusters, and atonal portal jumping, the trio's dense sound is powered via three expanded lap steel guitars, bells, and resonant metal. Bolt Of Voi…
