I grow accustomed to the dark
*300 copies limited edition* The first resonant space Zosha Warpeha played in was the Emanuel Vigeland Museum in Oslo, Norway. Built as a mausoleum, its walls reach up into a gradual archway, creating an environment where sound expands and reverberates for twelve seconds before decaying into silence. Warpeha was greeted only by dim lights when she entered, and it wasn’t until she had spent several minutes listening that she was able to make out the frescoes that covered every inch of the room: g…
Dotolim (2023)
The score Dotolim was originally realized in 2009 and composed for the performance space Dotolim. The musicians, Jin Sangtae, founder of Dotolim, and Joonyong Choi also performed on the 2009 version of the score. While on tour through Asia in 2023, I spent two nights performing and recording in Seoul at Dotolim. My idea was to realize a new version of the score with the current generation of experimental musicians active in Seoul. And unlike for the first version where I worked with electronics,…
Induction / Mutation
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* At the end of 2024, Eric's purchase of an electric cooker with induction hobs was the catalyst. Between auscultations and improvisations, Eric offered Francisco his recordings of the object in his kitchen. In return, Francisco completely reinterpreted these recordings. From this dual level of listening, the elements created resonated in each artist's sound world.

Two Daughters
Two Daughters marks a turning point. After several notable releases, Méryll has clearly taken a step forward with an album that finally captures the hypnotic madness of his live performances. His earth-shattering concerts, during which the artist physically engages with the sound material in an instinctive and radical way, finally have their counterpart in the artist's recording career.
Armed with a production that does justice to his fine and expert mastery of the Hertzian spectrum, this dou…
Ich Bin Meine Maschine - Remixed
Ich bin meine maschine is a spiritual track / ich bin meine maschine is a musical track / ich bin meine maschine is a scientific track
To underline this tryptic statement and to demonstrate the diversity of one of atom™'s compositions that appeared on his 2013 »HD« album, raster now re-releases the long sold-out vinyl ep featuring remixes by boys noize, function and atom™ himself.
»ich bin meine maschine«, in an elaborate manner, illustrates uwe schmidt's main musical concern - the explora…
The Boy And The Tree
The Boy and the Tree was composed after a visit to Yakushima Island, an outstandingly beautiful world heritage site off the southern tip of Japan, scored by a deep, lush and ancient ravine, home of the ancient 7000-year old ‘Jōmon Sugi’. Tree. Also the inspiration for Miyazaki's epic anime Princess Mononoke, a conflict between the rampant greed and destructive force of humanity, and the stoic, mysterious fragility of nature.
This fleeting immersion in nature lent the album a profound introspecti…
Sucre De Pastèque
Legendary French industrial pioneers Vox Populi! arrive on Dark Entries with a reissue of Sucre De Pastèque. Vox Populi! was founded in Paris in 1981 by Axel Kyrou, a multi-instrumentalist of Greek, French, and Palestinian roots. He soon recruited his future partner, Mitra, and her brother Arash Khalatbari, who were born in Iran and came to Paris in their teens, as well as bassist Fr6 Man (Francis Manne).
Their sound was motley, combining elements of musique concrete and early industrial with ho…
Une Pratique Monstre (Book)
French Language Edition This volume examines the protean and intermedial work of Pierre Alferi (1963-2023), in order to account for its singularity, and to situate it within contemporary poetic and artistic practices.
Arrigo Lora Totino. La parola come poesia segno suono gesto (Book)
Italian Language Edition Una monografia esauriente e completa di uno dei maggiori artisti e poeti visivi del secondo novecento italiano, Arrigo Lora Totino. Un catalogo ragionato di poesie, performances, libri d’artista, video.
Baudouin Oosterlynck & Bénédicte Davin
On their self‑titled LP, Baudouin Oosterlynck & Bénédicte Davin slip two late‑’70s vocal compositions into the present tense, turning Glasgow’s Tectonics stage into a resonant laboratory where Oosterlynck’s ultra‑precise scores and Davin’s live voice re‑sculpt silence, timbre and breath.
Rampe Amalgam
On Rampe Amalgam, Markus Oehlen extends his studio day into the night, turning the same unruly humour and visual overload of his paintings into skewed, concrète‑spattered electronics: half hidden beat, half dust‑storm, all deliberately “wrong” and fully under control.
De Vrije Loop
On De Vrije Loop, Mix Monster Menno raids the entire Ultra Eczema archive, flipping decades of uncompromising noise, improv and oddball electronics into a late‑night, After‑Hours‑style turntablist trip that feels like the label’s unconscious talking in cuts and crackle.
Actionreaction 2
On Actionreaction 2, Pippo Lionni, Sergio Corbini and Stefano Franceschini turn the studio into a single, improvising organism, where spackle knives and rollers become percussion, free‑jazz piano and sax tangle with electronics, and each canvas is written twice – in sound and in paint.
Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea
For Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea, Joe Hisaishi pours big‑hearted symphonic colour, children’s choirs and unmistakable earworms into Miyazaki’s flood‑myth fairytale, crafting a score that’s equal parts tempest, lullaby and sugar‑rush theme song.
Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind
For Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Joe Hisaishi builds a full mythos in sound: from early synth‑heavy image pieces to orchestral suites, his themes move between apocalyptic dread, ecological mystery and childlike hope with uncanny inevitability.
Castle in the Sky
On Castle in the Sky, Joe Hisaishi wraps Miyazaki’s floating‑island adventure in luminous themes, bounding chase cues and choral climaxes, fusing folk‑coloured melody and orchestral sweep into one of the most iconic soundworlds in the Ghibli universe.
Porco Rosso
The Porco Rosso scores show Joe Hisaishi at his most lyrical and playful, weaving 1920s Italian nostalgia, aerial derring‑do and bittersweet romance into lush orchestral themes and chanson‑tinged songs that make Miyazaki’s Adriatic daydream feel utterly lived‑in.
