Beyond The Circle Of The Fixed Stars
*2026 stock. 250 copies limited edition* "Fans of the Kosmische sound rejoice as sonic pioneers Dom Keen and Jonathan Parkes return with another instalment of their essential record series. I found my way to Studio Kosmische via Parkes' Korb project. Whilst I am admittedly tardy to the party, I’m nonetheless smitten by the sounds your about to enjoy in the grooves of this here record.
The album is split into two musical journeys across its two sides. ‘The Rites of Saturn’ starts as a tribal danc…
II
*2026 stock* Holy Magick II is the second studio album from Brighton based psychedelic rock band, Holy Magick. Following the success of the debut album and lead single ‘Even Though’ which gained great worldwide coverage and reviews from BBC6 Music.
Korb IV
"Korb members Jonathan Parkes and Alec Wood have formed a prolific partnership over recent years, building up a catalogue of recordings on their own Dreamlord Recordings label under various aliases, including The Hologram People, whose Village of the Snake God on Library of the Occult remains a high point. Here the duo shifts it's attentions towards the world of Kosmische music and bubbling synths, global grooves and analogue soundscapes, all delivered so effortlessly it's hard not to fall for t…
Electronic Meditation For Inner Space Travel
Like all Studio Kosmische records, Electronic Meditation for Inner Space Travel is less a collection of tracks than a single, unbroken experience. It flows with purpose, every note a step in a silent procession toward understanding.
There’s no urgency, no climax, just a graceful surrender to the unknown. When it ends, the world feels quieter, your thoughts slower, the air lighter. This one’s a record to play deep into the night, when the sky outside your window looks almost purple and the world …
Zawinul
It would not be incorrect to claim that Zawinul was the first Weather Report album with regard to both its concept and sound since all protagonists are already present: Joe Zawinul, Wayne Shorter and Miroslav Vitouš. This album confirms that Zawinul was the primary creative generator of Weather Report, the connecting link between the band and Miles Davis’s keyboard-laden experiments on "In A Silent Way"; indeed, the composition in its complex orchestral form as composed by Zawinul is newly arran…
HH
*100 copies limited edition* Time spent in hospital rooms. The weight still unfolding. The uncertain future. More questions than answers. Pieces of my heart, heard through the sounds of HH. For my wife. Shaped by what we are moving through together. An attempt to meet pain with love. Keep going. Try to rest. When can we. Holding each moment close, celebrating it as if it were both our first and our last. Knowing that love, in its truest form, is never measured by grandeur but by the depth of wha…
Daughter of War
"Daughter of War" is the debut album of the new four-piece band It Was Her Idea. Vocalist Juliana Venter and drummer Paal Nilssen-Love have already worked together in Paal’s PNL Circus project and wanted to continue that collaboration in a different direction — to explore other aspects they touched on in Circus and to work with material not solely composed by Paal. Their first choice for bassist was Ole Morten Vågan, who on his own is an orchestra. Ole Morten and Paal have long been friends with…
What Just Happened?
"What Just Happened?" is an album that collects four pieces by Paal Nilssen-Love, composed for smaller configurations of his Large Unit ensemble. The pieces are for specific instruments: snare drum, saxophone and tuba — from three to six performers. This act of stripping the ensemble down to single instruments does not mean sparse minimalism, quite the opposite, as Paal explores the possibilities — and limits — of the individual instruments. Contributing to the music's quality is the incredible …
Calls!
"Calls!" is the third album by Paal Nilssen-Love Circus, following "Pairs of Three" (2022) and the live recording "Turn Thy Loose" (2025). Circus originally emerged from Large Unit as a side project but quickly grew into its own band. The group performs music composed by Paal, and in live performances the musicians are free to play any parts of any song at any time. On this studio recording they take a different approach: the songs were recorded separately and carefully produced. On the live alb…
Steam Waterfall
«Steam Waterfall» is the second album in an expanded version of Paal Nilssen-Love's Large Unit. But this isn't the same Extra Large Unit you heard on «More Fun Please» from 2018. This is a live recording from the Oslo Jazz Festival in 2022 featuring core members of Large Unit along with a range of younger musicians Paal had met through workshops and teaching in the two years leading up to the concert. The number of musicians heard is 25—the largest Unit to date—but during the performance, there …
Hohai Bushi
«Hohai-Bushi» is the meeting between Paal Nilssen-Love and his Large Unit ensemble, here in a 13-person lineup, and the legendary Japanese musician Akira Sakata. Since the 1960s, Sakata has been one of the leading saxophonists in free jazz and improvisation, starting with the Yamashita Trio, continuing with his own ensembles, and later transitioning to younger musicians from various genres, including noise and experimental music. Akira Sakata is a living legend from the last 50 years of radical …
Unconsciousness Silence
Unconsciousness Silence is the latest ambient exploration from Japanese sound artist Chihei Hatakeyama. Known for his ethereal guitar drones and textured soundscapes, Hatakeyama creates immersive sonic environments that unfold slowly, inviting deep listening and introspection. This release continues his signature approach, blending delicate melodies, subtle electronics, and spacious ambient textures into a meditative journey.
everything in watercolour
Everything in Watercolour is a luminous and intimate ambient work from vocal artist and songwriter Anita Tatlow. Known for her instantly recognizable ethereal voice and immersive collaborations across the ambient and electronic spectrum, Tatlow crafts music that feels both weightless and deeply emotive.
Blending soft vocal layers with gentle synthesis and spacious production, the album unfolds like a series of delicate washes, where tone and texture drift in slow motion. Rooted in her backgrou…
Here In The Valley
Here In The Valley is the debut full-length release from helllhound, the intimate sonic collaboration of life partners Cadmar Fitzhugh and Nailah Hunter. Born out of a seismic shift from urban Los Angeles to a remote mountain town in the Sierra National Forest, the record reflects a period of profound transition—into the wilderness, into parenthood, and into a deeper communion with self.
Woven together through acoustic guitar, harp, voice, and gentle electronics, Here In The Valley evokes the …
L’insolence de ses mélanges (3 Magazine)
*2026 stock. 50 copies limited edition* The Edition L’insolence de ses mélanges is based on visual material collected during a stay in Marrakesh and subsequently compiled in three publications. The leitmotif is the author’s subjective perception of the environment, which is supplemented and thus further aestheticised by visual samples. By juxtaposing these samples with the photographic impressions, a space opens up that allows for new loose and metaphorical stories around the place.
Le Ciel
*2026 stock. 50 copies limited edition* The work Le Ciel shows a chronology of views of the sky over Marrakesh. The dramaturgical sequence of the images served as an inspirational anchor point for the ambient artist Neozaïre: for each of the six chapters, an individual sound composition was created from abstract samples taken from old record singles with Maghrebi music found on site. The synthesis of photography and sound is further intensified in six film sequences that spring from the image se…
You Know That It’s Real If You Feel That It’s Real
*2026 stock. 50 copies limited edition* “A scorching sun in the cold of winter. Gazing into Hackney skies. Glances, soft impressions, a tune on repeat. Touching, ever so gently. It's still so wonderful to feel.“
Neozaïre's second EP – or call it a mini album – for Private Sphere is all about an euphoria-fuelled and emotionally charged introspective. Leaving the exotic and sun-soaked realms of its predecessor, the seven short chapters of this new EP draw the artist’s signature soundscapes and moo…
Hotel Excelsior
*2026 stock. 50 copies limited edition* Neozaïre’s EP “Hotel Excelsior” is a hommage to the light, iridescent and shimmering. A continuously moving narrative interweaving a glistening, radiant heat with positive mysticism.
The four compositions on this EP represent the second part of a six track cycle that found its start with the release of last year’s “Pop Ambient 2021“, Kompakt’s highly renowned anual ambient music compilation curated by Wolfgang Voigt. “Hotel Excelsior” marks the debut publi…
Out To Lunch
Much-needed repress. First-time vinyl release. Old-style gatefold LP with liner notes by Kahimi Karie, Otomo Yoshihide & Tonoyama Taiji. Reissue, originally released on CD in 2005. Eric Dolphy's final studio album is hailed as one of the finest examples of mid-60s post-bop. Dolphy, having recorded the album in February 1964, was in Europe less than six weeks later and his all-too-brief life ended less than two months after that. It marked his last flurry of original compositions and is considere…
Dogs Blood Rising
Black vinyl. Reeling in the weeks -- which felt like years -- after my first Current 93 album, I had started on the difficult second C93 album, Dogs Blood Rising. Having been asked to appear on both Top Of The Pops and The Old Grey Whistle Test 93 times in the same week after the release of Nature Unveiled, I realized that God was telling me that I had hit on a winning formula of Christian eschatology and Apocalyptic Christian texts over a Soundscape as cool as flies, but that I was missing the …
