Corsano Baiza Watt Trio
Yucca Alta Records is ecstatic to present our inaugural release: the debut, self-titled LP from the Corsano Baiza Watt Trio.
Hav
Whitney Johnson, alter-ego of psychoacoustic voyager Matchess, debuts with a new composition that meditates on the duality of the human body. An instrument that collates awesome sensory pleasures, allows us to feel, and, best of all, to hear music, it’s also forever wearing on its slow death march. Using sine waves, marimba, viola, Arp Odyssey and Halldorophone, Whitney radiates healing waves to soothe and heal our flawed, but inspiring system.
Stena
Whitney Johnson, alter-ego of pyschoacoustic voyager Matchess, crafts an encompassing work of psychoacoustic music with two separate releases. On Hav, an LP under her own name, Whitney compassionately radiates healing frequencies to inspire inspired response with an extended composition for sine waves, marimba, viola, Arp Odyssey and Halldorophone. As Matchess, she presents the cassette Stena, reanimating fading waves with a collage of found sounds, frequency experiments and new music compositio…
50 Frequency And Amplitude Modulated Sine Waves Describing A Landscape / Trigram For Earth
Limited split LP, black vinyl in poly-lined inner sleeve. Edition of 500 units Trigram for Earth, by Flora Yin Wong, is inspired by traditional eight-sided Pakua mirrors and the trigrams inscribed on each of their edges. The function of the mirrors is to show the nature of reality as being composed of mutually opposing forces and modulate them. Here, energies seem to be manipulated to guide and direct our listening, lost in a maze of sound, diffracted to the point of merging with the artist's o…
Layers 1975-2004
It is a sincere honor and a privilege for Full Spectrum Records to announce the release of ‘Layers: 1975-2004,’ a retrospective collection of recordings from Texas abstract music legends Onions. An unsung and mostly hidden collective who paved the way for so much of Texas’ sprawling free and experimental music lineages, Onions is the ‘nom de guerre’ of a network of musicians and artists centered around its primary exponent, Dan Clark AKA Lienad Kralc and his musical partner Greg Cain aka Gerg Ni…
Float
Since 1983, on the labels Complacency, Die Stadt, Experimedia, Odd Size, Silent, Soleilmoon, Staalplaat, Tesco, Korm, Drone, no part of it, and Waystyx Daniel Burke and his conspirators under the Illusion Of Safety banner have traversed over the course of 40+ full length releases almost every facet of the avant sound plane, from early industrial pop deconstruction to blindingly minimal sound art to densely surreal found-sound collage, each unique approach bending and reconstituting the expectati…

Seas of Triple Consciousness
Jordan Deal’s 2022 debut GOGO Underworld (Cor Ardens) hipped us to their multidisciplinary practice which shapeshifts across film, sculpture, sound & performance. Now we are proud to present the next chapter in Jordan’s recorded legacy. Seas of Triple Consciousness was recorded between monasteries & churches in rural France and Jordan’s home in Philadelphia. It takes cues from the gospel, blues and folk traditions as well as avant-garde composition techniques.
Essentially a song-suite centred ar…

Inland Empire (Império Interior): A Compendium Of Experimental Music Made In Portugal Vol.3
*2024 stock* Inland Empire (Império Interior), or the last brushstroke in a triptych that gazed at the stars, sowed winds and, finally, sought the geographical limits of a country.
Going over the obvious lynchian reference, the last of Wasser Bassin‘s compendiums dedicated to experimental music produced in Portugal brings to light the electronic abstractions of Caranguejos; the irreverent drones of Ehxispê, creative alter-ego of Rodrigo Vieira; and from the banks of the Côa, instead of rock engr…
Seabed-Sunbath
Loris S. Sarid is an ambient composer and artist born in Rome but now resides in Glasgow. His previous release, "Music for Tomato Plants", was a quiet exploration of kalimba, glockenspiel and plucky synths. On his debut LP, "Seabed-Sunbath", Loris submerges into aquatic terrain with an expanded palette of virtual pianos, soft horns, kalimba, strings, synthesized voices, textural field recordings and a wide array of soothing electronic tones. On “Oats with Sarah” and “Lobster Island”, he also inc…
Structurally Sound

"Structurally Sound" saw the duo partner with Baltimore percussionist Jen Kirby (Strange Times People Band) who had joined the band on many tours to promote 2021's "Open for Business" (Trouble in Mind).
"Structurally Sound" is the self-assured melding…
Meelkop - Hohmann
Tip! *111 copies limited edition in special packaging* "Last year, Martijn Hohmann bumped into Roel Meelkop (Thu20, Kappotte Muziek) at a concert, and as two like-minded musicians would do, let’s work together on music. Hohmann mailed drones and field recordings to Meelkop, who did his magic (as in processing and adding sounds of his doing). Upon completion, a second round of new sounds and new reworkings resulted in four pieces of music, each around 15 minutes, so a solid hour of music. I have …
Music for Metaal 2024
*Limited edition in tin can with attached razor blade* "For reasons not of general interest, I re-discovered Vivenza’s music last year or so when I got some of the old vinyl and a CD again, and I played these with much enjoyment. I don’t know why Jean-Marc Vivenza never released any new music beyond 1994, but I am sure he has his reasons (a study in esoteric and philosophic movements may be the answer). The exciting aspect of his music was his recordings of machines, which he didn’t link to the …
