Embrace 1: Jupiter Storm / Partial Intersect
On Embrace 1: Jupiter Storm/Partial Intersect, Polwechsel with Magda Mayas and John Butcher fold fixed media, stopwatch scores and free low‑string improvisation into a dense, shifting topology of resonance and friction, pushing their chamber‑reductionist language into newly electronic and spatialised terrain.
Last
On Last, Leda distils Sofie Herner’s loop‑based guitar minimalism into six slow‑burning pieces: proto‑industrial basement buzz, worn tape atmosphere and stubbornly simple figures that erode into something hypnotic, eerie and oddly tender over 33 minutes.

EmphasYs
*100 copies limited edition* For more than three decades, Germany’s drone ambient pioneers Troum have explored the liminal zones between sound and sensation, shaping immersive sonic environments that dissolve boundaries between ritual, memory, and matter.

Pequeño clima doméstico
*100 copies limited edition* The Buenos Aires–based producer’s second album on Umor Rex can be read on at least two levels. The most direct traces its origin to the influence of environmental music, as well as to some pioneers of electronic music. The album was recorded in a single session, making extensive use of loops that were later edited and condensed into the six pieces that make up Pequeño clima doméstico. This working method responds to a playful approach that runs through Entidad Animad…
The Moth
"A friend of mine told me he had visited the place that Cancer House live and record. He said they jammed together all afternoon. In the moment, in the zone so to speak, he became more and more convinced that what they were making together was the best music he had ever been involved with. As the afternoon drifted by, second by revelatory second, he began making grandiose plans to release the recording. By the time it was dark outside the windows he imagined it as a future lost classic, a key li…
The Lisu
Tip! One of the longest standing figures amidst the Discrepant wolfpack, the unstoppable alias of sound collector Laurent Jeanneau returns to the fold 2 years after 'Tanzania II' with this 2.0 update of the elebrated 'The Lisu' sort-of-mixtape released way back in 2014.
Based on recordings of music from the Lisu communities in China and Thailand captured on site, this mix shows Gong more like a selector or dj, restricting electronic processing to a bare minimum in order to convey different histo…
Thresholds
On Thresholds, Andrew Anderson assembles a disquieting tapestry of foley‑like detail, field recordings and dream logic, a vinyl debut where precise sound art slips into phantasmagoria, hovering at the edge of memory, image and pure atmosphere.
Still House Plants
On their self‑titled debut, Still House Plants capture a raw, one‑day snapshot of their early quartet chemistry: tape‑hazed grooves, off‑kilter song forms and fragile/feral vocals sketched live to reel, already hinting at the oblique intimacy they’d grow into.
