Hiver Profond
Nantes based Kévin Couapel aka Pont Alexandre III crafts a sonic world grounded in ambient and experimental electronic music, where slowness, repetition, and texture shape the core of its language. The music unfolds as an immersive architecture of sound, balancing shadow and light, density and silence. The compositions favor understated emotional narratives, allowing traces of nostalgia, isolation, and delicate serenity to surface. Synthesizers, hazy and enveloping, are treated as organic matter…
Two Moons for Eyes
*70 copies limited edition* The sweet night thickens like boiling jam. Two muted moons transmute into silent eyes, its rays glowing through different stages of reality. A path through haze unfolds as Niko Karlsson's gentle guitar unfolds like a twisted flower and recedes back into invisibility under a shower of fern's seeds.
Tertous
*100 copies limited release* Tertous is the first album by the duo formed by Mélanie Loisel and Rachel Langlais. It consists of seven acoustic instrumental pieces recorded at GMEA in Albi (France). A double bassist with a classical background, now engaged in free improvisation and experimental forms, Mélanie Loisel also develops the solo project Borguefül, in which she explores a ritual, transfigured double bass at the crossroads of imaginary languages and reimagined traditions. Rachel Langlais,…
Totem flotté
*100 copies limited release* With Totem Flotté, Brice Kartmann delivers a first solo album of instrumental electronic music, in which the modular synthesizer becomes a true field of exploration and immersion. Sound engineer, musician, sound designer, and composer—particularly for documentary cinema—Brice Kartmann shifts his experience of image and narrative into a purely sonic realm. The album’s nine pieces function like autonomous organisms, each endowed with its own breath, internal tensions, …
Erosão Percussion Trio
Drummer, singer, composer, and producer Mariá Portugal (BR) joins Berlin-based percussionists Burkhard Beins (DE) and Emilio Gordoa (MX) to form the Erosão Percussion Trio, which is now releasing its debut album through Kassiani Records and Fun in The Church. Their performances are strongly grounded in improvisation, drawing on a wide variety of percussion instruments — ranging from the traditional drum set to other unconventional instruments. The trio’s sound is enriched by the percussive use o…
Underground Vein
'Underground Vein' is a mystifying and curious recording for two electric basses. Focusing on prepared techniques, modulation effects and the odd sighting of looped phrases, Masatake Abe and Ken Ikeda create an undulating sea of texture and atmosphere across the albums 12 pieces. A strange, alien landscape of sounds and moods, Masatake had the following to say about the albums creation and inspiration: "Ken Ikeda is active as an electronics player, but it may not be well known that he was origin…

To The Cloud-Cuckoo Land Of Color Wheels!
Dark Companion Records is truly thrilled to add this extraordinary band to our family of artists. This album marks their debut for our Unifaun Productions. To The Cloud-Cuckoo Land of Color Wheels is the third album by Malesh, a Wyrd Folk project hailing from the hidden caves of Tuscia.

Thirty-Second Annual Report
Thirty years on from the original, Throbbing Gristle returned to the source material of The Second Annual Report - their catastrophic debut of November 1977, pressed in a run of 785 copies on their own Industrial Records with white labels, a "Nothing Short Of A Total War" sticker, and a Xerox warning strip about the shortcomings of the pressing - and reinterpreted it live at La Grande Halle-La Villette, Paris, on 6 June 2008. That performance was captured in full and issued as this 12" 180gm LP,…
Changing Bodies
On changing bodies, Thomas Peter treats the world as a resonant instrument, folding field recordings, objects and synths into five patiently mutating pieces where motion, texture and silence feel as physical as touch.
Health & Safety
On Health & Safety, Johan Surrballe Wieth drags his post‑hardcore sensibility into a hushed, modern‑classical fever dream: 25 minutes of grief‑stricken keys, corroded drones and ghost‑violin traces that move like medicated insomnia.
Duori
Duori is an imaginary word. It combines the ideas “dentro” (inside) and “fuori (outside) invoking a place between.
Dream Of The Egg
"Dream of the Egg" is the debut solo album by Tomo Katsurada, known for his work with the Japanese psychedelic band Kikagaku Moyo. This project is a unique fusion of music and visual art, inspired by the Japanese 1920s children's book “Yume No Tamago (Dream of the Egg)”. It reveals a deeply personal journey, reflecting Tomo's dreams and the numerous rebirths experienced in 2024—a year marked by profound new beginnings in every facet of his life.
This mini album was driven by a passion for raw an…
/RAW:ReSpace/
RAW/ReSpace is the first-ever experimental noise-metal saxophone solo album, changing and re-defining how the saxophone can sound and what saxophone playing means. No saxophone player ever dared to explore these uncharted outer realms of woodwind expression. RAW brings together noisescapes and electronica with death and doom metal approaches and contemporary instrumental composition techniques. While ReSpace combines dark ambient, controlled-feedback soundscapes with a reductionist approach to c…
Visitors
Visitors was the brain-child of French producer/composer/genius, and enfant terrible Jean-Pierre Massiera. In 1974, he recruited a group of nineteen musicians (most notably jazz violinist Didier Lockwood, who made an indelible mark on Magma's 1975 live album), to record his latest compositions. Massiera had been impressed by violin-fronted jazz-rock acts such as the Mahavishnu Orchestra and Jean-Luc Ponty. He decided that his new psychedelic nightmare should be a concept album on the theme of ex…
Landlocked
On Landlocked, Mo'ong Pribadi and Sholto Dobie build a clattering, breathing machine‑folk from self‑made pipes, horns and percussive junk, where air compressors and human lungs mingle into an uncanny music of phasing clicks, drones and phantom tunes.
Attacco Morbido
On Attacco morbido, ATMO (Leila Hassan and Elia Buletti) let soft drum‑machine grids, quietly glowing keyboards and voice‑led fragments drift together, where programmed pulse and hand‑played percussion blur into intimate, half‑dreamt songs.
Taillis
On Taillis, Roxane Métayer and Charles Dubois cultivate a sparse, alive thicket of sound where violin, prepared drums and resonant objects trade roles, letting melody, pulse and texture quietly braid into fragile, shifting song‑forms.
Visitations and Revisitations
This release continues lines of work that seem to inevitably revolve around explorations and honourings of place, people, and memory. Two pieces stem from other lines of research which have been ongoing for some years. All the works combine elements of acoustic and electronic sound, where the electronic sound is often derived from underlying acoustic sources which usually remain unheard. The 'letter pieces' all function as hommage compositions, in an alphabetical series of 26, where each letter …
