Après Coup
Blue Lake reveals his most ambitious album yet, which finds its visionary creator Jason Dungan harnessing the collective alchemy of his band, with ten spirited tracks that resonate with a powerful directness, evoking an ecological connection to the wider world.
Hundred Tongues
*200 copies limited edition* Erik Klinga’s second entry in his Thanatosis trilogy is darker, more dystopian in its bloom. Where his debut glowed with incandescent warmth, Hundred Tongues absorbs the unease of the present and yet throws a flash of light, albeit blinding. Composed at Malmö Art Museum on the 16th-century Genarpsorgan, threaded with his Buchla synthesizer, field recordings from Skåne and Öland, and a deliberate, focused touch, it reads as one long form: episodes that coil, return, a…
D'une rive à l'autre
The Western Pacific archipelagic nation of Tuvalu has high levels of exposure to both local and abstract climate change stressors. The sea level rise poses a fundamental risk to its very existence. Tuvalu’s vulnerability to the impacts of climate change characterises it as a ‘sinking’ nation. This reality inspired Pascal to form the musical ensemble Tuvalu with the intention to reflect on the human relation to nature using texts and poems slammed in the native tongues of each ensemble player : F…
Insha
*300 copies limited edition* With Insha, This Morn’ Omina crosses a new threshold within its long-established ritual universe. The album marks both a return and an expansion, retracing paths once considered barren, and reopening them as gateways to origin forces and primal intention. Created in close collaboration with Konchong-Gyaltsen (Nam-Khar), Insha is rooted in convergence rather than continuity. Untethered from the logic of trilogies or cyclical narratives, Insha turns directly toward the…
Hope for Nothingness as Something
*75 copies limited edition* A two-chapter suite for modular & FM synth, wind & string instruments, electronics, sound objects and field recordings. The work is structured as a two-chapter descent from concrete score to analog & digital abstraction. It begins with the tangible written material and human presence of the performers, which are systematically subjected to a process of erosion. The initial components are reduced to "digital dust” — meaningless data fragments — then recombined algorith…
Piano Studies
*75 copies limited edition* Piano Studies is a set of pieces recorded on a salvaged piano body at Elektronmusikstudion (EMS) in Stockholm. Using free-floating metal preparations and various mallets, these works use this alternative hammer escapement mechanism to coax a particular inharmonic resonance from its skeleton frame.
Aves de Nahá
*75 copies limited edition* Aves de Nahá is the result of an interdisciplinary exchange of knowledge between anthropology, ornithology, and the Lacandon community of Nahá, Chiapas, México. It centers on the aural relationships between the Lacandon people and the birds of their jungle. The work invites us to listen to birds as sentient beings — creatures whose calls and songs announce shifts in weather and time cycles, accompany rituals, and participate in a shared environment where the jungle it…
Castle Terraces In Barry Lyndon
Castle Terraces in Barry Lyndon is a spacious and quietly enigmatic work by composer and writer Zeynep Toraman. Created for instrumental ensemble, electronics and film, and written for Ensemble Contrechamps, the piece brings together clarinet, cello, violin, electric guitar and electronic textures with a subtly unfolding visual layer. What emerges is a world where sound and image lean gently toward one another, opening a listening space that feels both architectural and intimate.
The title recal…

Banishment Of Tyranny
Violent Shogun returns once again to Absurd Exposition, this time with a new CD. The trademark sound can be expected: tape loop misuse, hands-on object roughage and feedback manipulation blended in atmospheric, decaying chaos.
Early Recordings 1991
Alan Michael Bloor was making experimental music before he started developing his now long-running harsh noise project Knurl. These recordings see Bloor using homemade instruments to create sounds that are like if John Carpenter was part of the 70s Berlin School gone lo-fi. All tracks recorded in October 1991, on the verge of harsh sound explorations that would soon become Knurl. Sourced from the original master tape in Bloor’s archive.
