Visions Of Darkness (In Iranian Contemporary Music)
A gathering of majestic, heavy, dark ambient, ritual, drone and noise music from Iran. Highly original and monolithic, with stunning production, Visions Of Darkness stands shoulder to shoulder with the giants of the Dark Ambient scene. In a country where youth culture has been heavily restricted for so long, it’s significant when a cultural form such as this has an opportunity to reach a wider audience – aided by the abstract nature of dark ambient, drone and noise. In comparison, the dance musi…

CD1 features 'Ein Glücklicherer Zufall: Genau Zu Lang (A Happier Accident: Exactly Too Long)', an hour-long, part studio / part live collaboration between seminal anti-music stalwarts The New Blocka…
Recoiled
“Recoiled” is a rambunctious alchemy, of magikal Coil sensibilities and hi-tech home circa 90’s mixing technique, all fused in the cave-like early studios of Danny Hyde (Coil, Electric Sewer Age) / Peter Christopherson (Coil, Throbbing Gristle). These were the unrestrained Pre- big studio- mix downs, of four songs which long time Coil admirer / collaborator Trent Reznor requested Coil to remix. Reznor sent over the original multi-tracks and DATs to Hyde / Christopherson, who independently mixed …

Journey Through Underworlds
The classic, genre-defining 1993 album from Lull - the pioneering, isolationist dark ambient project of Mick Harris of Scorn, Fret, ex-Napalm Death - is a dark journey through the Stygian netherworlds of Hell. The listener is left with the impression of a final escape into reality; a return upon waking, with only wispy trace memories and the heavy rush of blood-pumping fear as a keepsake. With this album, we are plunged back into a dark pit of noise - all escape barred, all hope dashed. The nigh…
Shortwave Spectrum
The new Sonologyst "sonic documentary" delves into the secretive realm of shortwave transmissions; a chronicle of clandestine shortwave transmissions culled from a span of nearly four decades (1982-2021). These mysterious transmissions - repetitive voices, signals, sound pulses, short pieces of music - were collated and edited to compose the tracks of the main album.
Immersed in an isolating fog of dark ambient, deep drone music and cinematic sound art, it provides an auditory exploration of the…
Cafe OTO
A documentation of prolific Japanese noise master Merzbow's double show at London's Cafe OTO in October 2016.
Outland
The Outland album series was a collaborative endeavor by the visionary US bassist-producer Bill Laswell and the late German musician Pete Namlook that pushed the boundaries of dark ambient and electronic music. Spanning five albums released over a thirteen-year period from 1994, this new boxset serves as a testament to the creative synergy between the two masterminds. At the time the duo joined forces, the New York-based Bill Laswell was already a famous producer with a massive client list that …

Those Who Do Not
Ltd x 230 copies on red vinyl. Double 180gm vinyl in glossy gatefold sleeve. Red Vinyl. The sound of the classic period of Psychic TV - featuring Peter Christopherson and Geff Rushton (John Balance) of Coil, this full show is interspersed with recordings of the Pagan marriage between Genesis and Paula P-Orridge conducted by Sveinbjörn Beinteinsson Allsherjargodi. Psychic TV at their most esoteric, their most ritual, and often most extreme, a perfect accompaniment to the legendary 'Dreams Less Sw…
Mother Moon
The new album from 400 Lonely Things, produced by William Basinski, is a dark ambient, sample-based séance to the Banning Mill -- a real-life decaying "mansion" and haven for artists, freaks, and misfits in the backwoods of the American Deep South in the 1970s-1990s -- and an extraordinary piece of art that lived there. An archaeological excursion in found sound -- wandering through the art and memory of a real place, Mother Moon is an origin story for 400 Lonely Things. In the '90s, Craig Varia…
Sól' Anægphomœh
This album from Chilean dystopian and philosophical muziek act Pyreficativm is intended to be one of the last ritualistic pieces within the chronological amalgam of abstract sounds in Dark Ritual Ambient. The last aberrant orchestration with a much greater vent challenge raised by the use of funeral instruments and ritual artifacts, it has made it a funeral ekstasis that has been deployed towards various edges of the ch'thonic hysterical spheres. "Sól' Anægphomœh" forms a funeral night processio…
Continuous Hole
Continuous Hole, a collaborative album by Drew Daniel (Matmos) and John Wiese. The fruit of over ten years of home recordings in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Baltimore, “Continuous Hole” melds improvisation and musique concrète composition into a uniquely sweaty document of labor-intensive rhythm. A finger puzzle of reconciled opposites: lockstep structure and constant flux. Many of the tracks reflect the unique blending of the disparate backgrounds of its creators: on “Abhorred Shears”, “Slee…
