Forever Neon Lights
On Forever Neon Lights, James Adrian Brown swaps Pulled Apart By Horses’ guitar-slinging volatility for luminous, emotionally charged instrumentals, threading analogue synths, tape machines and strings through a glowing meditation on childhood wonder, creative stubbornness and hard-won hope.
Situations | Useless Mouths
On Situations | Useless Mouths, The Mistys pivot from solitude to shared euphoria, channelling restless electronics and Beth Roberts’ shapeshifting vocals into a bright, subversive celebration of joy as fuel, shelter and quietly defiant energy.
Stars of the Wayside
On Stars of the Wayside, Twilight Sequence traps an evening in Sherborne’s The Beat and Track: Matthew J Saunders threading slow‑mutating loops, semi‑modular pulses and live sampling through the racks, turning a tiny shop into a softly glowing synth observatory.
Sun Angle
On Sun Angle, Solar 76 folds 90s tech‑ and deep‑house DNA into a lucid, slow‑burn vision of the future we never got: warm, utopian machine music that imagines a socially and ecologically advanced 2020s and then quietly scores it.
Patterns in Condensate
On Patterns in Condensate, Phexioenesystems turns Peter Blasser’s Plumbutter and a humble JV‑1010 into a quietly radical study of “meaningless sound,” letting stressed circuits, presets and failed window seals sketch their own accidental poetry.
Inner Storm
On Inner Storm, Seth Price channels a deeply personal rupture into four raw, single‑take synthesizer improvisations, turning real‑time manual control, LFO pulses and live pedal work into a stark study of emotion, process and duration.
Colonial Vipers
On Colonial Vipers, various artists from the Dutch Trumpett orbit condense the 1982 home‑taping surge into 13 rare tracks of minimal synth, DIY cold wave and concrete industrial atmospherics, finally transferred from cassette obscurity to heavyweight vinyl.
Complete Communion
Complete Communion marks the stunning 1965 Blue Note debut of Don Cherry, the visionary cornetist best known for his work alongside Ornette Coleman in the late 1950s. This landmark session captures Cherry at a creative peak, leading a fiery quartet featuring Gato Barbieri on tenor saxophone, Henry Grimes on bass, and Ed Blackwell on drums. Together, they explore the outer edges of post-bop and free jazz, building long-form compositions that seamlessly weave multiple themes into unified, evolving…
Circles
Several years after the release of ‘Metamorphosis’ (with Sid Hille), Multicast Dynamics (Samuel van Dijk) reemerges on Astral Industries with ‘Circles’ - an enchanting two-part work venturing into deep unconscious realms. Sonic landscapes unfold in a sequence of hidden spaces and intimate revelations, featuring detailed sound design and rich thematic content.
Circle One initiates the process, opening gently with glassy drones and the patter of distant voices. A faint light shimmers through swir…
Kontinuerlig Drift
*100 copies limited edition* Pursuant to PQR’s reissue of San Michael’s and Gandalf’s albums (both sold out in a flash), and more recently of Midsommar’s debut, we continue digging into the gold reserves of the Swedish 70s underground to unearth the highly collectable album by Kontinuerlig Drift (meaning ‘continuous operation’ in Swedish). Just like Gandalf, this is a versatile album, equally split into ethnoprog, psychedelic and bluesy moments, all of which were indispensable facets of the band…
Financial Tycoon
*100 copies limited edition* First ever reissue, remastered by the band. Long recognized as a one-off gem among Europrog collectors, Coma’s debut Financial Tycoon reflects the proclivity of Danish peers such as Secret Oyster and Burnin’ Red Ivanhoe for producing outstanding jazz-fusion, albeit uniquely blended with prog textures, and a sardonic sensitivity that was engraved across Europe in the releases of the likes of Kandahar, Supersister, Banzai, Brainstorm, Plastic People of the Universe, Pa…
Tercer Milenio
*100 copies limited edition* We are repentlessly thrilled to bring you the first reissue of Tercer Milenio, probably the best hard rock/heavy prog album released in the prolific Argentina 70’s scene. This is a more mature and tighter effort compared to Orion’s Beethoven’s debut Superangel that places them in the spotlight of heavy prog/proto metal. The album’s opening blaster Amistades Desparejas establishes very clear expectations about what is to follow: a tapestry of scorching riffs and acid-…
Through Time
Deaf Center travel through quiet pathways and grand boulevards in their fourth studio album “Through Time”. Since their last full-length LP, “Low Distance” (2019), the duo has gradually shifted towards a more long-form electroacoustic sound which perhaps makes for their most immersive listening experience so far. Otto A Totland’s piano travels in less frequent rhythms than before, yet is felt even more as a relief in the quieter moments that contrast with Erik K Skodvin’s deep atmospheric worlds…
Wormhole
Kreng transports us through the swirling darkness and into the unknown with “Wormhole”, his first album in over a decade. What does a trip towards another world sound like? We’re about to find out. The master of tension, melancholy, and the deranged is back after a long period working in the worlds of theatre and cinema. Last seen on Miasmah with the grief stricken The Summoner, Kreng now returns with Wormhole, following closer in the footsteps of the cult classics L’Autopsie Phénoménale de Dieu…
Flute
'Flute' is an album of six pieces written by Slovak composer Adrián Demoč and performed by Italian flutist and multi-instrumentalist Manuel Zurria. Of the six pieces, "Zamat" is performed in two different versions. This is Demoč's second release on elsewhere music, following the 2024 release 'Piano', as well as Zurria's second appearance as the flutist, following the 2024 release Giuliano d’Angiolini - ')))((('. Demoč's compositions are often intended for open instrumentation or a "monochromatic…
Two Paths
Swiss-based German vocalist/composer Marianne Schuppe and Berlin-based Italian cellist Deborah Walker present two duo works: Aus dem Zeltbuch, co-composed by Schuppe and Walker; and Occam River XXIX, a piece by French composer Éliane Radigue.
Aus dem Zeltbuch (2022/23), based on a text-collage by Marianne Schuppe, reveals a surface of a word-sound texture on the edge of acoustic intelligibility. Aus dem Zeltbuch questions our perception of language in a musical context by creating bilingual area…
Rustlings
'rustlings' is an album of two pieces written by Stockholm-based violinist and composer Maya Bennardo. One of the pieces, 'dormant gardens i' (2022), was written for and performed by andPlay, a duo of Bennardo on violin and Hannah Levinson on viola. The other, 'summer rustlings' (2024), is a solo violin piece performed by Bennardo.
Both pieces were inspired by Bennardo's move to Sweden from New York City, where she developed a new relationship with nature through walking. Her solo and compositio…
Monochromes II
‘Monochromes II’ is a collection of thirteen solo piano pieces written and performed by Berlin-based composer/pianist Quentin Tolimieri between 2023 and 2025. This is Tolimieri’s second release on elsewhere music, following the 2022 triple album ‘Monochromes’ (elsewhere 022-3). In this new triple album, Tolimieri delves even deeper than in his earlier Monochrome pieces to explore the countless sonic possibilities and resonances that the piano can produce. Aiming to allow the inherently interesti…
Nothing Is New In This Room Except The Dust
With Nothing in this room is new except the dust, Ivan The Tolerable returns not to a room but to a weather-beaten tract of being — a north-facing interior where wind has a voice and the light is a thin animal nosing the corners. The trio who forged Black Water, Brown Earth and An Orphan Form — Oli Heffernan, Mees Siderius, and Elsa Van Der Linden — move here with the patience of creatures that have learned the seasons of each other’s blood. If the earlier records surveyed land, this one digs in…
Kuun Sininen Rinki
Flourishing minimal composer Juho Toivonen returns with Kuun Sininen Rinki (‘Blue Circle of the Moon’), a four-track LP assembling recordings from two distinct moments in his recent work. Issued by Infinite Expanse, the release gathers previously unreleased material alongside pieces that first appeared in extremely limited CDr form, offering a glimpse into an early phase of Toivonen’s developing piano practice. If you’ve spent time with Toivonen’s 2023 LP Kasveille ja eläimille, the A-side will …
