Taivaskanava
Taivaskanava by Juho Toivonen. Originally released as a cassette on Grapefruit Records, now getting repressed on cd. Quiet, drifting pieces for late hours, small sounds and open space, carrying the same fragile mood as the original tape. original artwork by Arsi Keva. features spoken words by joshua burkett and plunderphonics rip-off from this kind of punishment. good luck spotting it.

Hìeratico
Italian drummer, composer and sound artist Nicolas Remondino announces the release of his new album Hìeratico, a work that delves into the borderlands between ritual, abstraction and contemporary experimental music. The record presents a radical reimagining of the drum set and percussion as an autonomous sound-world, where pulse, noise and silence continuously collide and reconfigure. On Hìeratico, Remondino treats rhythm as a living architecture rather than a mere time-keeping device, building …

Duvall of Liverpool four-piece Ex-Easter Island Head on sound collages, strings and trombone, with Tombed V…
Fail better
*70 copies limited edition* Eventless Plot and Bruno Duplant join forces on Fail better, a cassette release that treats failure not as an endpoint, but as a method of composition and a way of listening. Across two long-form pieces, the group carves out a delicate space between electroacoustic improvisation, minimalism and ambient abstraction, letting sounds appear, waver and erode rather than declaring them with force.
Recorded by the Thessaloniki-based trio of Vasilis Liolios, Aris Giatas and Y…

Avàvâgo Zamran!
*300 copies limited edition* “Avàvâgo Zamran!” marks a new ritual transmission under the name Arrokoth, a project initiated by Guillaume Cazalet (Neptunian Maximalism, Zaäar, Sol Kia...) as an ongoing exploration of musical primitivism, liminality, and distant cultural imaginaries. Conceived as a vessel rather than a fixed ensemble, Arrokoth brings together collaborative works with Dimitar Dimitrov (Corpus Diavolis, Antelogos, Haiku Funeral) and John McKusick (Three Dragon Alley), resulting in a…
Olympiad - Vol. 4 - Curling
On John Zorn’s Olympiad Vol. 4 – Curling, John Zorn exhumes one of his rarest 1970s game pieces, a slow‑burn study in sustained tones, handing it to ROVA Saxophone Quartet and the William Winant Percussion Group, who turn its minimalist rules into 45 minutes of hovering, hypnotic sound.
Oi! Oi! Oi! (Nazi Skins Are NOT Electric)
"Oi! Oi! Oi! (Nazi Skins Are NOT Electric)" is a provocative 7-inch single by experimental performers Chris Lunch and Frieder Butzmann, released around 2005 on Mauerstadtmusik in Berlin. This anti-fascist punk track satirizes Nazi skinheads with its raw, electrified Oi! energy, flipping the genre's working-class roots into a sharp rebuke of far-right appropriation. Butzmann, known for his dadaist noise and performance art, teams up with Lunch's chaotic vocal style to deliver a jubilant, rebellio…

Gate's "3M" is a 7-inch vinyl single released by New Zealand experimental musician Michael Morley, known for his work with The Dead C, on the German label Toneschacht.

Pieces For Broken Piano
Pieces for Broken Piano turns a weather‑wrecked 1916 Gebrüder Stingl grand into an accidental “prepared” instrument, as Miroslav Beinhauer navigates new works by Terry Riley, Philip Glass, Milan Knížák, Gordon Monahan, Elliott Sharp, Milan Gustar and Yoon‑Ji Lee written specifically for its fractured voice.
Generic Flipper
Generic Flipper, the debut album by Flipper, remains the most absorbing full-length LP to emerge from the early San Francisco punk scene. A constant source of imitation for so-called "noise rock" bands, it has yet to be surpassed in its nihilistic glee. Recorded between October 1980 and August 1981 and released in 1982 on the indispensable Subterranean Records, this album functions as a chaotic, sticky mass of individual personalities: the magma-like bass eruptions and dual vocals of Will Shatte…
Lahar
LAHAR is the new musical work of Bandung power duo KUNTARI, Indonesia. A deeply atmosferic, bone-melting session of ancestral doom sounds delivered by the contemporary Indonesian primal music specialists. LAHAR is a Javanese term which was adopted in geology to describe a violent type of mudflow or debris flow composed of a slurry of pyroclastic material, rocky debris and water. The material flows down from a volcano, typically along a river valley. Lahars are often extremely destructive and dea…
Fabu and Teche
Fabu and Teche extends HeghL’s “camera mista” into two impersonal, semi‑ghostly surfaces, where language and technique rebound, hybridise and thin out into fragile, flickering forms that are neither one thing nor another, yet stubbornly refuse to disappear.
Du Jeu Idéal
Du Jeu Idéal turns HeghL’s philosophical play into sound, as Tekelerobutor (op.el) stages Luca Pedeferri’s piano against works by Lisa Baume and Francesco Trabattoni, treating Deleuze’s “game without rules” as a constantly mutating musical event.
