*2024 stock. 170 (hand-numbered) copies limited edition* "The recording locations of this work are Nakanoshima Park, Tenjinbashi, Sakuranomiya Park in Osaka, Japan. There are rows of cherry trees, rivers, ponds, lotus flowers on swamps, boat dock, railroads, and small forests. I visit this place often. The expression is rich depending on the season. It was a very hot summer day in August 2020. I brought in a small recording set (digital recorder, tape recorder, etc.) and worked on the go. There …
*2024 stock. 170 (hand-numbered) copies limited edition* Capture the unshaken density of water. The day. Birdsongs. The night. The clamour of the clouds. Summer. The breath of the trees. In spring. That of the fish, in the fall. Budding trees. Zenith sun. The blooming of flowers on a full moon night. The ripples blown by the wind across the scarlet surface of the pond. The furtive swing of the willow branches under a diurnal rain. Leaping insects in warm light. The hoarse cry of the rooster. In …
*2024 stock. 170 (hand-numbered) copies limited edition* "Raaswater is a seamless album of compositions using sound recordings made whilst participating on the 2018 Sonic Mmabolela residency for sound artists and composers in the Limpopo province of South Africa. With a small group of likeminded people led by Francisco López & Barbara Ellison, I spent countless hours exploring the dynamic environments of the Mmabolela reserve by walking, resting, listening, interacting, experiencing and recordin…
*2024 stock. 160 (hand-numbered) copies limited edition* "Two bodies of water, contained in man-made channels and held back by barriers. Such is our desire and need to control nature, that we have used this resource to aid our industrious endeavours, often at the expense of the local area and environment. Steel, wood and concrete stand tall, holding back huge volumes of water to be channelled to produce electricity, cooling processes or simply be stored for future use. Often these processes cont…
*165 (hand-numbered) copies limited edition* "Registro de Piedra plays with the idea of place memory. I have heard a few stories of people spending the night in or near ancient ruins and witnessing strange sights and sounds. What some might call ghosts. Modern science has no way of explaining these apparitions, casting doubt on the authenticity of the experience. Other researchers have propounded the idea that these places may hold memories of past occurrences, and that under certain circumstanc…
*165 copies limited edition* "The first person to contact me for collaboration back in the Spring of 2020 was Patrick. I was living with a sensitive child and a big dog in a small rented apartment in Belgrade when ridiculously harsh and oppressive curfews were forced upon us by the Serbian government. It is really hard to explain to anyone the situation I found myself in without acknowledging that it sounds like a dystopian SF. Only a few details to picture the reality – I had to risk getting ar…
*200 copies limited edition* "This work was recorded in several locations. All recording locations are in Osaka, Japan. I enjoy a lot making field recordings of ordinary everyday life. If you listen carefully, you can come across sounds that you wouldn't normally notice. Wherever I go, these are present in filigree. All sounds were captured within my immediate vicinity. Locations : Osaka Station, Ogimachi, Tama river, Matsuyamachi and my room. Recorded using various equipment (cassette tape reco…
*175 (hand-numbered) copies limited edition* "The hum of traffic from afar brings back fragments of memories from the past. Lately I've been visited by memories from a simpler time, NYC in the early years of the century, and my friend Richard Garet is often on them. We shared many musical and artistic adventures then before geography made physical contact impossible, the musicality of memory became evident and prompted a piece that doesn't describe or narrates a story but that mixes the grey sou…
Visionary, challenging and beautiful, pushing the potentiality of organized sound incrementally ahead, Vanessa Rossetto's 'Self-care' is unquestionably one of the most engaging releases we've heard so far this year. A bristling expanse of environmental texture and incident, slowing building across its duration into a moody sonic space of startling psychological depth.

**200 copies** "Farol is the sound portrait of a monumental architecture : the 25 Abril bridge in Lisbon. The 25 Abril bridge is a symbol for the Portuguese capital. Visible to tens kilometers around, it serves as a visual and noisy landmark. As we come closer, the buzz becomes stronger until it gets blatant, like the light from a lighthouse which becomes blinding when the coast is near. Farol est le portrait sonore d’une architecture monumentale. Ce field recording nous emmène au cœur du pont d…
**200 copies** "During the summer of 2017 my girlfriend and I drove through the heart of Sweden. For the first time ever on a holiday, I took my hand-held recorder with me to record some of the sounds Sweden had to offer. In the course of 2 weeks we saw many beautiful vistas, viking graves and ancient woods and it’s no surprise that I made a lot of recordings at those most beautiful locations.For nearly a year, these recordings were collecting digital dust on my hard drive. I just listened to th…
**170 copies** "This album is a field recording. It’s a field recording of me recording music. It’s a recording of my room and the street outside. One track was recorded in the morning during a holiday, the other on a weekday afternoon. In a way, all of my albums since Ghosts are field recordings. Most of them weren’t planned to be, but I don’t really have a choice. I’ve been recording onto a Zoom digital recorder since I moved here. Sometimes I try to eliminate the outside noise, but my apartme…
**175 copies** "This work consists of recorded materials at ‘Abukuma’ and ‘Irimizu’ limestone caves on Abukuma highland, Fukushima. Water is plentiful there, and we can see a long waterfall near our route in Irimizu limestone cave. Both caves are developed and open for public as tourist spots, however, there are some areas that require a guide to enter, and some others prohibited. And also, they are still under survey and possibilities are pointed out that deeper spaces than the deepest spots we…
**200 copies** "Mountains and Waters is an elegy to the Holocene epoch and to the quiet places that have been lost. The Holocene reaches back some 11,700 years when the last of the glacial cycles began to fade and the planet began to warm again. Since that time as we know, humans have dominated the landscape leaving very few places unchanged in some aspect. There is still debate as to when the Anthropocene began among the scientific community and no official epoch has been established. The recor…
**200 copies** "Tombland at night or day, at certain times, feels like a ghost-town. One moment I am swept up by the passing traffic, in another I have turned into a side street and there is nothing but a throbbing stillness that meanders through the cobblestones. Here, there is the blend of old and modern; traffic noise, people with chaotic lives, cobbled paths, vintage shops, forgotten history to some. There are moments even in the most chaotic of places where there is a quietude, a tranquilit…
**150 copies** "Reclaim brings to mind two classic pop songs: Joni Mitchell’s “Big Yellow Taxi” (1970) and Talking Heads’ “Nothing But Flowers” (1988). In the first, “they paved paradise and put up a parking lot.” In the second, “this used to be real estate, now it’s only fields and trees.” Nature has a way of reclaiming her own, which is the point of the new album by Kevin Wilkinson, who goes by the unwieldy moniker of brb>voicecoil.In Wilkinson’s words, “10 years ago I walked through crops,…
**200 copies** "Bourdon du Kinzie (N° 3 from N° 1), 48°08’33” N 122°45’39” W is a recording of an acoustic space, recorded on a January afternoon within adjoined bunkers, inside of a defunct munitions battery near Port Townsend, WA. The acoustics within the site are very active, with long reverb decay times, so any sound that takes place within or outside of the space gets temporarily trapped inside, such that numerous sources interact with, dominate, and submit to one another. There were a few …
**200 copies** "For my collaborative piece Our Seasons Reverse I used recordings captured in Waziers, Saint Nazaire, Calais, Lille, Roubaix, Paris, London between 2017 and 2018. These recordings compiled a number of events that included museum visits, various walks by the sea, in the forest, under the rain, in the wind. I also play some organ parts. The link between all was the natural elements which are unleashed, all that could express that the climate is disrupting, that our seasons reverse, …
**200 copies** "For the past three years, living in Cambodia gave me the opportunity to visit traditional Buddhist Temples across different areas of the country. These edifices are dedicated to spiritual practices, studies ,worship and serve as moral and cultural hub for the Khmer People. I‘ve realized a series of recordings inside and around the enclosure of Pagodas in various provinces separate geographically. During an unique passage, I spent a brief time to capture the singularity and atmosp…
