New Arrivals / Today
Obreel
Obreel emerges as a compelling meeting point between three distinct yet profoundly complementary voices within contemporary ambient and experimental electronic music: Pepo Galán, Joachim Spieth, and Markus Guentner. The result is an album where rich textures, delicate fragility, and architectural clarity coalesce into compositions of meditative depth and luminous resonance.
Stillform
Stillform is a meeting of kinesthetic restraint and sonic precision. The album’s aesthetic lives in reduction - sparse motifs are carved out with care, micro-rhythms and attenuated textures bloom and dissolve with measured control. The collaboration reflects both artists’ shared interest in how minimal elements can create profound aural spaces: Onodera’s spatial sensibilities and Arovane’s keen melodic structuring converge to offer a listening experience that is simultaneously intimate and expan…
Nocturna
*2026 stock* Nocturna is the first collaborative album between New Zealand musician Andrew Thomas and German artist Joachim Spieth. Inspired by fleeting moments of beauty in nature, where light illuminates and then disappears into the shadows, Thomas began composing on the piano during Summer in the Southern Hemisphere. Gathering piano fragments like treasured relics, he passed them on to Spieth some months later, as Summer was now dawning in the Northern Hemisphere. Spieth wove the piano’s deli…
Spectral Passage
*2026 stock* With Spectral Passage, rhubiqs delivers a deeply immersive concept album that traces a psychological journey from turmoil to clarity. Inspired by artists like Tim Hecker, Fennesz, Sarah Davachi and William Basinski, the record layers guitars, synths, pianos, samples, field recordings, strings and brass into shifting soundscapes that mirror the mind’s passage through anxiety, trauma and renewal.
Opening with dense, disorienting textures (Infinite Dusk, Endless Nights), the album grad…
Low Harmonics
*2026 stock* Following his Affin debut Dolere in the summer of 2024 and his collaboration with Joachim Spieth and Markus Guentner on Arcadia, zakè returns to the imprint with his second solo album, Low Harmonics. As the title suggests, the record sinks into the lower depths of sound, shaped by heavy bass currents, low frequency drift, and slow moving vibration. Low Harmonics extends the reflective world introduced on Dolere, which explored how time stretches during periods of sorrow and how soun…
Vestige
Vestige continues Joachim Spieth’s refined exploration of spatial sound and textural depth. Building on the sonic language developed throughout his recent works – including Retrace – the album expands the dialogue between ambient atmospheres and dub-infused detail. The result is a composition of weightless intensity: a sound that unfolds in motion, inhabiting both vast hall spaces and microscopic frequency shifts. Driven by the question of how much presence can reside within a single, minimal so…
Aegis Of Silence
*2026 stock* With rhubiqs we welcome a new artist from the United Kingdom, who makes his first appearance on the Affin label with the album “Aegis of Silence”. Musically, the project moves between the poles of warm electronica, post-rock and soft ambient sounds, which are miraculously merged into a melodious body of work. rhubiqs' sound works fit into the existing affin sound garden on the one hand, but shine with an independently developed signature that is able to set its own accents.
Entrega / Batelages
Two cassette releases by Mexico City experimentalist Rolando Chia, heard by almost no one on their original release, now appear on vinyl for the first time. Batelages and Entrega - sound collage, concrete texture, avant-garde guitar - two lost chapters of the Latin American underground,
Candomble: Sacred Rhythms in Brazil
Upon their arrival in Brazil after the traumatic Atlantic crossing, enslaved populations from West Africa sought to reconstruct their sacred cultural and spiritual systems within a profoundly hostile environment. Five centuries later, the vitality of terreiros (ritual grounds) across the country bears witness to a living and adaptive religion that continues to evolve while remaining deeply rooted in ancestral traditions. Today, Candomblé is celebrated throughout Brazil and increasingly recognise…
Ondanaconda
Ondanaconda does not compose with the jaw harp, but through it. For their self-titled debut album, the quartet turns this lamellophone, often perceived as archaic, into the record’s sole sound source. Found for centuries across continents, from Asia to Europe, the jaw harp is played against the teeth, using the mouth as a resonating chamber, shaping sound through breath and bodily movement. Here, amplified, prepared and sometimes pushed to its limits, it becomes percussion, bass, drone and textu…
Music For Stage & Screen (Volume I)
Tbilisi Records proudly presents its second release – the first volume of a new series titled Giya Kancheli – Music for Stage and Screen.
Deep Triskell
Following Sans fin sans fond (BZH010), an introductory EP released in 2026 on les Disques de la Bretagne, This LP on Éditions Gravats is Maxime Primault’s (High Wolf, BZMC) debut album as Deep Triskell. Sacho Fest, New Trad Festival, Instants Chavirés, Mofo Festival… Deep Triskell came into shape through a series of live performances, each one bringing the project one step closer to its current sound, that Primault defines as “stoner-trad” (as in traditional): a sonic matter that is dense, abras…
Woman's Colours
One of the most iconic Italian library music albums ever, Woman’s Colours by the Giancarlo Barigozzi Group (with Sergio Farina and Oscar Rocchi) emerged from Milan’s vibrant studio scene. Originally released in 1974 under the supervision of Fabio Fabor, it’s a refined concept work blending jazz-funk, jazz-rock, bossa nova and exotica, featuring Wurlitzer, Fender Rhodes, fuzz guitars and expressive flutes, balancing groove and elegance. Over time it has attained cult status, now regarded as a cor…
Christopher
Christopher were an underground acid rock trio featuring future Josefus drummer Doug Tull. They evolved from United Gas, a psychedelic band from Houston who rubbed shoulders with legends like The 13th Floor Elevators and Moving Sidewalks. After relocating to Los Angeles – where they changed his name to Christopher – they played at numerous biker parties and recorded their sole album in 1970 for the Metromedia label.
It’s an amazing example of West Coast psychedelia / acid-rock featuring strong f…
Dragonfly
*2026 stock* Ultra loud heavy psychedelic rock from Colorado, late 60s, with loads of fuzz guitar all over. Dragonfly were actually a band called The Legend, who changed their name just when they were recording their self-titled album. Originally released by the Megaphone label in 1968, Dragonfly is a hard-psych classic, highly sought-after by collectors since day one. Back in 2012 we did the first official vinyl reissue and we now present a new, improved repress with expanded liner notes and ne…
Morgen
*2026 stock* US heavy psych masterpiece from 1969. Powerful sound and recording with thunderous drums, piercing fuzz guitars and the incredible vocals of Steve Morgen. Formed as Morgen’s Dreame Spectrum in 1967 in NY, Morgen were one the first bands signed to ABC’s offshoot Probe Records (home also of Soft Machine in the US).
Fuelled by the chemistry between ace guitar player Murray Shiffrin and creative songwriter/singer Steve Morgen, they recorded their self-titled album in 1968 but, much to t…
Ellison
Ellison were a Montréal-based hard-rock/ heavy-blues band emerging from Québec’s late ’60s psychedelic scene. With just one album to their name, they left behind a powerful legacy and a rapidly growing cult following. The band’s origins trace back to 1967, when bassist Richard Arcand and vocalist Vincent Marandola played together in Johnny Peace. In 1969, guitarist Christian Vaeillant and drummer Robert Cager joined forces with them, forming Ellison. Closely tied to l’Association des Orchestres—…
Moby Dick
Moby Dick were a fierce, English-singing rock band born in Naples in 1968, driven by zero compromises, and a motto that said it all: “no drugs, no bullshit—just music.”Blending Mediterranean fire with a hard-rock sound deeply inspired by Led Zeppelin, they carved out a reputation on the Italian live circuit before cutting a now-legendary, long-lost album in London in 1973. Formed in the Vomero district of Naples by guitarist Toni Di Mauro and bassist Enzo Petrone, the band came together with dr…
Fifth Pipe Dream – Volume I
Conceived by legendary (and controversial) producer Matthew Katz, Fifth Pipe Dream – Volume I is a groundbreaking psychedelic album from 1968 that blurs the line between compilation and concept record. Featuring a rotating cast of Katz’s San Francisco Sound artists, it encapsulates the creativity and experimental spirit of the Bay Area at its lysergic peak. Rather than a traditional various-artists compilation, Fifth Pipe Dream was designed as a unified listening experience—multiple bands contr…
