Early hallucinatory ritual percussion works from the much-missed rhythmajik master. This legendary album by Industrial pioneer Z'EV was originally released in 1986 (LP, Dossier), now finally available with the state-of-the-art remastering it deserves. Also included is the bonus 20 minute track 'Titan Night', recorded at Berlin Atonal in December 1983, now available here for the first time on any format since the original 1984 split LP with Psychic TV (who performed their iconic set at the same e…

"I have been primarily active in violin improvisations, occasionally releasing tape/electronic works based on them, but since I started the Agencement project in the 1980s, I have owned several modular synthesizers. For many years, I have not utilized them. From 2025, I will also be creating works that focus on these materials." - Hideaki Shimada

On Stash, the absolutely energy-drenched 2nd album from BCMC, the guitar and keys duo soars through waves of pleasant rhythmic turbulence on the way to show us just what they got: Needle down: increased activity dubs and baubles the sonic surface of BCMC’s Stash planet. Waves from Arabian, Indian, Flamenco and Soul groove in alliance under the expanse of an all-world flag, representing a borderless pursuit of cosmic music moments in the hand, of/by/for all the people of folk, rock and jazz, psyc…

Satatuhatta is extremely proud to present the debut album 'Starving of Lesser Desires' by a new Finnish project, Silos. The album draws from arcane themes, moving through the fragmentation of the mind and its gradual healing through esoteric awakening. The material combines digital and analog acoustic sources, stripped of their original context and reshaped into something unrecognizable, resulting in a unique sound that feels both intimate and alien at the same time, without losing its sense of …

*100 copies limited edition* Staalplaat proudly announces the release of Live at the Melkveg 25.9.87, a blistering live cassette capturing Savage Republic at the peak of their ferocious '80s sound. Recorded on September 25, 1987, at Amsterdam's iconic Melkweg venue, this previously unreleased document showcases the Los Angeles post-punk pioneers delivering an unrelenting set of tribal rhythms, searing guitars, and hypnotic drones. Savage Republic, formed in 1980 amid the DIY ethos of LA's underg…

This intimate trio is the perfect vehicle for songs composed by John Greaves in English and in French- poems by by Verlaine, Apollinaire and more set to music by John in a powerful and very personal style, far from the tradition of French “chansonniers” but just as endearing. Elegant music to match the exigencies of the lyrics. It consists of 15 tracks beautifully composed and arranged by John who articulates a piano that is sometimes melancholic and sometimes rock. His inimitable sense of poetr…

"Broken Allures", the fifth release from trio Jac Berrocal, David Fenech, and Vincent Epplay (following releases on Blackest Ever Black, Akuphone, KlangGalerie), furthers their unique recording style with a musique concrète approach to mixing, characterized by the distinctive sound and technique of musicians and producers. Fenech and Epplay have paired with legendary French musician Berrocal, renowned for his collaborations with Nurse With Wound, Vince Taylor, Jaki Liebezeit, Pascal Comelade, Su…

From out of the dark, the crackle of feed back birdsong signals a return to the land of sound environments exclusive to the music of Rafael Toral. A year and a half after his epochal electric guitar album, Spectral Evolution, Traveling Light finds him sharpening his focus, moving boldly from abstract forms to concrete compositions in the form of a set of jazz standards. Based on Toral’s discography, this may seem an unlikely endeavor, but happily, Traveling Light transpires to be one of the majo…

Giuseppe Ielasi & Riccardo D. Wanke’s debut duo album blends electric guitar and piano with reverb, showcasing shared improvisational artistry and a delicate sculpting of sonic space through careful interplay and mindful silences.

Drones, hums and overheard sounds, bladders and strange vibrations, air currents, roars and ticking, friction and the thudding of a drum-beating fish, the wail of a dervish’s mixer, the manic circling of a dreamt-of tone by sonic lathe-workers…

*200 copies limited edition* Deaf Star is a shoegaze / noise-pop / electronic project founded in San Francisco and now based in Barcelona, Spain. Rooted in melancholy-driven personal songwriting, the project drags those intimate impulses through blown-out textures, crude production, bass-heavy electronics, and walls of distortion, arriving at a sound that feels both fragile and annihilating. Drawing from the jet-engine narcotic haze of Astrobrite, damaged intimacy of Sebadoh, nocturnal drift of …

*200 copies limited edition* Heavy drone trio Petrozavodsk return with their vinyl debut, “Forest Fire”. The band deepens its ongoing collaboration with UK-based electronic producers, this time it’s Container, and Moa Pillar (who has mixed all of Petrozavodsk’s material to date). The LP is divided into 3 distinct movements: a relentless thrashing electroacoustic rave piece by Container, a dubbed-out drone-rock track, and a side-long drumless slow-motion guitar wash that nods to the genre’s touch…

*2026 stock* 2 years after their debut album on Utech Records, P/O Massacre goes deeper in their immersive noise experimentation in this collaboration album with Alex Buess, and Merzbow (Masami Akita). An architecture of distortion, Moog processors, spring reverb, drone effects and more, then developed in different directions by two electronic/noise veterans. It’s a journey of pure sensation, destruction, and rebirth. A skull-vibrating sound decomposition to your face. For this very reason of se…

*2026 stock. 125 copies limited edition* Witness Wounds is where four singular musical voices collide to create something raw, unpredictable and deeply immersive. Formed by the meeting of two duos from distinct artistic worlds, the project blurs the lines between noise, free improvisation, performance and experimental music, resulting in a sound that is both visceral and meticulously crafted. On one side, Tomorrow I Feel Wrong unites Sara Trawöger and Kristin Gerwien, long-time collaborators kno…

*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition* "The resulting music is an unearthly ever-shifting roar, sometimes identifiable as the product of guitar and saxophone but just as often not. Obrazeena’s guitar frequently starts out as an almost country-tinged drone, not unlike Earth’s “Hex; Or Printing In The Infernal Method” before turning into a downtuned wall of thick, syrupy distortion you can almost touch. Ponomarev’s sax screeches and bellows, and his electronics create a dense pulse, with needle-…

*2026 stock* A new P/O Massacre release - the duo of saxophonist Anton Ponomarev and guitarist Anton Obrazeena - is always an exciting proposition. "Sonic Oblivion” is an extension of sorts to the 2023 album "Aural Corrosion” featuring Merzbow and Alex Buess. Based on materials from the same recording session as its predecessor, "Sonic Oblivion" has a different impact. This nearly two-hour-long album features knife-sharp and grave-deep guitar noises by Obrazeena, apocalyptic electronics and shri…

*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition* This unique split brings together two projects. Teufelskeller, with their intense and energetic free grindcore/jazz/noise, delivers a raw and devastating performance. Formed in Moscow, the trio is known for their wild improvisations and physical approach to sound. Their debut album was released on the WV Sorcerer Productions label. Toru is a trio based between Lyon, Nice, and Marseille, blending experimental metal, noise, and electroacoustic music with di…

Multifold digipack edition + extensive booklet. Amgen presents the historic recording of Éliane Radigue's Asymptote Versatile (1963-64), widely recognized as the oldest surviving composition by the pioneering French electronic music composer. This monumental work was performed for the very first time at the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival on November 26, 2023, marking a truly historic event as Radigue had resolutely refused permission for this work to be presented in concert - until now…

2010 release ** "In the planning (and many faxes, emails and discussions in person) for 20 years, finally this stunning collaborative release for Cold Spring from Japanese Noise king Merzbow and legendary elemental sound artist Z'EV is here. The tracks were created in London and Tokyo, with each artist remixing the other's original sounds. Two tracks weighing in at 22 minutes and 28 minutes respectively! Dark Ambient Noise."

Born from a shared love of Aerial M, Lung Fish and other contemplative, cyclical and slow moving rock music from the Chicago and Louisville scenes, Fire Nearby are a guitar duo exploring long-form automatic song writing for the autumn season. Although McLean and Birchall have tussled together in a variety of free-improv groups over the last decade, their friendship has always been rooted in similar formative years spent gigging in, obsessing over and learning to play guitar to the same post-ever…

Lucciole is Silvia Tarozzi’s luminous follow-up to the intimate reflections of Mi specchio e rifletto and the deeply rooted folk dialogues of Canti di guerra, di lavoro e d’amore with Deborah Walker. Here, Tarozzi draws together voices, memories, and musical lineages to create an album where avant-garde composition, personal narrative, and collective resonance exchange freely. The album opens with a radiant brass ensemble—chosen for its popular, celebratory, spiritual sound—and closes with the P…

*80 copies limited edition* Since 2013 on NTS, Time is Away (Jack Rollo and Elaine Tierney) has redefined the concept of radio storytelling. Theirs is a cultured and visceral assemblage that weaves ambient, sacred music, dub, and field recordings with literary and cinematic fragments. A work on memory and sonic resistance that culminated in the acclaimed compilations Ballads (2022) and Searchlight Moonbeam (2023). We invited them to an event in collaboration with Quindi Records at the Church of …

*300 copies limited edition. Black sleeves with paste-on artwork and a postcard*  Debut LP from a new Gothenburg duo consisting of Irma Krook (Makthaverskan) and Dan Johansson (Sewer Election).  Alyssa takes elements from Irmas Military Arms 12" released a few years ago and combines it with the mind expanding synth stuff Dan has explored with the Psychic Panorama recordings recently. Adding a few larger-than-life piano bangers and whatnot, the result is a dreamy and mesmerizing night time album …

On geschrieben in wasser., Klaus Lang pares the piano quartet down to a faintly breathing organism, letting soft, slowly shifting harmonies hover at the edge of audibility like something written on water just before it disappears.

On For a Lemon Tree, Kristofer Svensson, Maya Bennardo and Erik Blennow Calälv cultivate a fragile, glowing sound‑world where violin, bass clarinet and kacapi trace slow, intertwined lines, turning silence, breath and overtone into their primary compositional materials.

On his Clarinet Quintet, Jürg Frey stretches time until it feels almost weightless, using soft clarinet breaths and hushed strings to trace a slow, luminous drift where tiny inflections become whole landscapes of feeling.

On Flare, Sylvia Lim turns six chamber works into a series of luminous close‑ups, magnifying tiny shifts of timbre, breath and touch until fragile sounds bloom into something cathartic, raw and quietly destabilising.

Stern Records is proud to announce the first-time reissue of tself perpetuating plunderphonic classic, Right Into The Sun by Pol Maló.

After its first release in 2023, the tiny big band Parasite Jazz brings its public iterations to fruition with “♫”, a testament to an alternate reality, matured voyaging across France over the span of four seasons. It sees the music flee through exuberant forests and steep troglodytes ; a parallel genre movie with a soundtrack of diluvian rhythms, mocking chants, jazz noir and voodoo accidents. In this shifting, autonomous world, the elastic orchestra—whose members keep on appearing and disappea…

*50 copies limited edition* Listening to Koude's self-titled debut album can feel like floating in still dark water or like crawling slowly through a moonlit forest. It could be any other lonesome surrounding really, a place where it's just you and your body, some senses numbed, other senses heightened. All the while, something undefined seems to be hiding in the dark; something bad or something good. The subdued music of Koude draws from meandering folk, ambient, slowcore and drone, folding the…

Night is about to fall, the day slowly fades away, and it is this twilight time that Magda Drozd’s latest album inhabits. Divided by Dusk carries the promise of a crepuscular otherworldliness. Inspired by Drozd’s stays in Japan, its rich tradition in ambient and experimental music and a collaboration with Japanese flutist Rai Tateishi, as well as a renewed engagement with her roots in Poland and its folk and ancient history, her work is a form of sonic excavation. Layers of dark-ambient tones in…
