Allegato Sonoro - Amen This Is Religgion N° 2
This 1984 release marks the beginning of the intense split-tape activity that characterized and distinguished the Amen fanzine.

The Missing Boys - Selection Of Sardinian Wave 1980-1989
*2026 stock* “The Missing Boys” is a film born from the need to tell the story of the emergence and affirmation of a forgotten music scene, like much of the youth movement that spread in metropolitan areas as well as in the provinces more than forty years ago, dealing with the same critical issues of everywhere. It’s a story of mostly unknown bands, who from Sardinia, especially from Cagliari and Sassari, interrupt the blissful isolation of an island, only apparently distant from that revolution…
Millesuoni
In Millesuoni, Deleuze Guattari e la musica elettronica (2008), Emanuele Quinz distills some of the key ideas on the nature of sound formulated by Deleuze and Guattari over the course of their work. Central among them is the dynamic of territorialization and deterritorialization—a strategy of appropriation and subsequent release, activated in the alternation between refrain and music.
A child humming alone to ward off the fear of the dark is engaging in a process of territorialization, marking a…
Automation Studies Volume 1
This triple disc release documents Stefan Goldmann's earliest electroacoustic works. These clear-cut algorithmic compositions, mostly created between 1999 and 2001, were built entirely with the TC Fireworx processor's internal synthesizer and effects. Generated and recorded anew for this release with the original programs, a central component of Stefan Goldmann's sound aesthetic is revisited and becomes available in pure form for the first time. His proprietary Fireworx algorithms feature pr…

Extraordinary double LP of solo guitar music by Hans Reichel (1949-2011), curated by Oren Ambarchi. Twenty-three pieces from 1973-1988 documenting Reichel's radical instrumental rethinking: custom-built guitars with additional strings, moveable pickups, special capos.

Wunderkammer
On Wunderkammer, Jan Bang, Michael Francis Duch, Erik Honoré, David Toop and Mark Wastell assemble a single 38‑minute live trance of electroacoustic chamber‑drift, where Moe‑Repstad’s disembodied voice moves through gongs, bass and quietly uncanny objects like a ghost cataloguing its own reliquary.
Music for the Process of Dying
On Music for the Process of Dying, Homo dissolves language into a porous, five-part soundscape where breath, organ, flute, electronics and the outside world seep into one another, sketching a wordless vigil for the psyche as it approaches the threshold.
Contra Madre
The late pedal-steel guitarist Susan Alcorn leaves a final surprise hinting at new directions left underexplored on her collaboration with Nomad War Machine, the improvising metal duo of drummer Julius Masri and guitarist James Reichard. Their death-metal-influenced pummel adds new fire to her molten flow across a suite of improvised tracks that show off the vast range and simpatico of the trio. Julius Masri and James Reichard of Nomad War Machine: An unexpected opportunity arose out of a catchi…
Terceiro Solstício

Delicate guitars, ethereal voices, tracks woven from sighs and layers upon layers, like secrets and small nocturnal rituals under the cold glow of the moon. Beautiful, evocative, and quietly transformative. The artist, cláudia simões, also known as alga, dedicates this work to winter: a season of introspection, stillness, and subtle magic. Let's enjoy the offering.
July, 2024, Montemor-o-Novo
Last year, Aires, Sã Bernardo, Sal Grosso & Vile Karimi inhabited the Blackbox at O Espaço do Tempo from July 3–6, part of CCA's curatorial project Jejum. Over four days, these artists and collaborators converge, creating shifting constellations of sound through solo, duo, trio, and quartet encounters. Each evening invites the public into the intimacy of open rehearsals, where structure dissolves into possibility, a daily ritual of improvisation where boundaries blur, and music becomes a living …
Death Notes
Together, Samuel Kerridge and Maxim 'Panda' Barron conspire against the living with their electrifying new project, Death Disco. Drawing deeply from the rebellious roots of punk and the DIY ethos, the duo has crafted with their debut album ‘Death Notes’, a sense of urgency and authenticity. Samuel’s fierce vocal work and electronics gives the album an emotional depth that goes beyond its aggressive nature, while Maxim’s pulsating rhythms keeps cutting through the atmosphere with skin-stripping p…
