Loose Ends
Filatelie is proud to announce the release of "Loose Ends", the latest album by the enigmatic California-based artist Darksmith. Released on June 6, 2025, "Loose Ends" is a bold new chapter in Darksmith’s ongoing exploration of experimental sound and audio collage.
"Loose Ends" is a two-part journey that delves deep into the world of lo-fi musique concrète and noise, a signature style that has defined Darksmith’s work for over fifteen years. The album’s structure—simply titled "Part One" and "Pa…

Hold Onto I.D.
Recorded from late 1996 through early 1997, Hold Onto I.D., The Shadow Ring’s fourth album, marks the apogee of the trio’s experimental rock epoch—their last record clinging to their factitious bandness before they let all song and structure go awash in sonic malaise for their final run of releases on Swill Radio. The surrealist dreams of City Lights and Put the Music in Its Coffin give way to pseudo-expressionistic lyrics mired in the banality and bleakness of the everyday, set against the back…
Wax-Work Echoes
Wax-Work Echoes, The Shadow Ring’s 1996 album, marks a shift to original material and features Tim Goss in the main lineup. Fusing atmospheric soundscapes and wry lyricism, it captures the band’s restless energy. Out of print for decades, it now returns on vinyl.

Streben
This is the original soundtrack by Streben RPG. The musical ensemble called Gnoll locked themselves in a damp medieval castle and pressed the "on" button on their synthesizers. This is the result: a twilight album that takes you to the foggy lands of central Europe in dark times, lands dotted with gloomy castles, ancient monasteries and forests where no one dared to venture. Inside the cassette is included an unpublished mini-adventure module for Streben RPG. Enjoy the dark medieval times of Str…
Serate Jazz nel Deserto
Tip! Tip! Tip! There is a place on the edge of the desert that is a refuge for broken hearts and lonely souls: Bar Mirage offers its customers the best cocktails in the entire desert, which know how to inebriate the palate and refresh the soul.
Every regular has his favorite cocktail and each of them has some sorrow to drown in it: there is Sir Brummel, the old boatswain, lost in his memories of youthful exploits; at the counter there's Lady Brigitta, the retired fortune teller, who chats animat…
No Wind
Tokyo-based Rhucle, aka Yuta Kudo, has been crafting sublime ambient for more than a decade and in all, there have been over 70 works that blur the line between synthetic sound and the natural world. Using soft synths, delicate piano lines and field recordings from everyday life, he crafts gentle, immersive compositions that invite introspection. Each track unfolds slowly in its own time and is shaped by the textures of the moment, whether that's passing rain, distant voices or subtle room tone.…
Destruction
Destruction marks something of a new direction for Reuben Sawyer as he fuses clear, direct vocals with ambient textures. This latest album from the musician and visual artist meditates on destruction and rebirth while reflecting on the tension between enduring natural forces and fleeting human constructs. It opens with themes of nature's resilience and humanity's relentless desire for novelty, then gradually explores the collapse of civilisation and is inspired by Bill Fay's Who Is the Sender. I…
Winds Of Eternity
Following releases on labels like Inner Islands, Home Normal and Muzan Editions, Japanese composer and sound artist Kenji Kihara is back with a new album that expertly channels the tranquil surroundings of his coastal hometown, Hayama, which is nestled between sea and mountains. What comes out is an immersive ambient work that is indebted to nature, marbled with field recordings of rustling leaves, waves and birdsong, and serene compositions that exude warmth through meticulous tonal layers. His…

Open Soul
2025 Red Vinyl Released in 1976 by Chicago's local label Stage Productions, this is the only album by a 6-piece soul band centered around the four Burton brothers.

Starting with the epic and groovy funk "Open Soul" (B1) that uses the entire B-side of the record and lasts over 20 minutes, the super…
BorderlessSoutheastofTheNorth
"What we have here is a result of an idea ignited almost 15 years ago with its roots deep in the era of subculture 1990s, when its teenage protagonists started listening to records. But the comradeship between the three of us started in the early 2000 when I was pursuing my first Utopian idea of an art commune in the form of a counter-festival in the Southeastern Slovenian countryside on the border with Croatia. An idea from which, years later, another Utopian project was born - an international…
