Tropic of Capricorn
Tropic of Capricorn is the second album by Lawrence English and Werner Dafeldecker. Based on field recordings made by the prolific Room40 owner that were subtly but decisively altered with electroacoustic techniques through the German improv legend, these two long-form pieces blur the lines between acoustic ecology and aesthetic interventions, concrete local sound worlds and boundary-defying art. They put a focus on our relationship with nature as listeners as much as they call into question whe…

Micropenis Envy
*50 copies limited edition* Torschlusspanik is the experimental moniker of the multi-talented, Tennessee-based artist Luna Mitchell. A follow-up to last year's "Intersexual Healing" on No Rent Records and her second release on Orb, this new tape features more of her unique and intricate style of sound collage that has come to be expected from this project. Garbled incantations, chopped field recordings, and the indecipherable in-between collide in beautiful, hectic harmony across these 8 new tra…
All The Duos
Tip! Orb Tapes presents “All The Duos,” a brand new collection of collaborative pieces featuring Maria Chavez and Sandy Ewen. A colossal effort, this double CD release contains over 90 minutes of music and showcases the improvisational prowess of both artists. Taking their instruments past the point of recognizability, each has a knack for coaxing unpredictable yet beautiful sounds from her equipment – turntables and guitars treated in utterly novel ways. Now based in Brooklyn, Chavez and Ewen h…
Sologuitar 1
*50 copies limited edition* "This is a set of solo guitar pieces recorded over the course of a few weeks that are sometimes percussive, sometimes droney, sometimes noisy and sometimes nothing. I have recently rediscovered my love for playing the guitar and I used these recordings to work out some sort of live solo guitar set, so there is very little post production and everything is a little gritty as a result. I like a lot of the sounds found in recording this and if you listen I hope you do as…

a page is turned, a mountain collapses, a guy goes
*300 copies limited edition* Hailing from a jazz background and each collaborating in a variety of projects, Stefano Calderano, Francesco Panconesi and Nicholas Remondino have been teasing the boundaries of genres three years now under their trio act McCorman (formerly known for a while as Below-Fi). Stemming from the groundwork laid over the course of multiple creative residencies the trio held between 2019 and 2021, at their very debut full-length release McCorman carve a path drifting from fr…
La Vaga Grazia
Tip! *100 copies limited edition* Originally composed as a soundtrack for a live performance of Eva Geatti’s eponymous theatrical performance, La Vaga Grazia is a concert of synthesizers inspired by the electronic music of the 1950s, passing through the sparkle of library music and the cosmic sequencing of krautrock. Rhythmic machine scores alternated with digital glitches follow one another, directing and modifying the wandering flow of the performers on stage.
come, Memory: fieldwork
"come, Memory: fieldwork" is the culmination of a long-cherished research project initiated in September 2021, revolving around three immersive journeys to ancient European sacred places, with a particular focus on Neolithic sites. This project encompasses extensive research, the capture of Super 8mm film, 35mm photography, and audio recordings, the creation of three experimental short films, and the development of a scenographic installation. In May 2023, this installation was exhibited at the …
Hey Let Loose Your Love
Pieced together with musty samples from children’s exercise records, vintage drama, clunky British jazz and library records, this is an archaeology of emotion, an exploration of the power of not only childhood memories, but of the collective unconscious. Julian House’s own The Focus Group; oddly assembled sampledelic collages, stitched together from fragments of library cues and forgotten soundtracks. A beautiful, unhinged stream of consciousness that seems to prod at buried memories."Julian Hou…
Sprecato
First album in seven years from Maple Death Records founder James Jonathan Clancy (Italy/Canada), and the first under his birth name following previous ensembles His Clancyness (Fat Cat, Maple Death) and Brutal Birthday (Total Punk, Improved Sequence). In the interim between those projects and this latest, ‘Sprecato’, Clancy has refined and honed his vision —steadily and carefully drawing from a host of disparate influences to create a new kind of singer-songwriter album that bridges the divide …
Räkenskapens Dag
A small chunk of early 80's Swedish DIY underground history from the legendary but rarely heard Fysisk Fostran. Based in the small town of Stenungsund north of Gothenburg and roughly active between 1980 and 1984, the group released a few cassettes as well as a fabled 7" that due to mysterious complications only exist as a testpressing in 4 copies. Fysisk Fostran were inspired by the early UK industrial sound as well as post-punk and synth music, this combined with the young age of the bandmember…
Corner Dancer
Tip! Lucy Railton trusts in the nuance of her own creative instincts on an intensely modern, quietly radical new album, her second for Modern Love. Following her 2018 solo debut Paradise 94 (LOVE 108LP), and countless collaborations in the time since, Railton's diverse musical circles here bleed into each other, creating an insoluble testament to a lifelong pursuit of sound. The multi-instrumentalist further articulates her own tonal register, embracing her solo strengths and trusting the proces…
Ramybe / Autoportretas
Santaka is truly the sound of a culture. The name means “confluence” in Lithuanian, and the project has been exactly that from the moment DJ/producer Manfredas and drummer/producer Marijus Aleksa resolved to work together in the early days of 2020.
Not only does it bring together the talents that Manfredas and Marijus have individually honed over their own illustrious international careers in the club underground and young jazz worlds – but their recordings have drawn on talents from across styl…
