La Manzana Mágica
One of 12k’s most endearing artists is back with a new album. From Argentina, Federico Durand presents La Manzana Mágica, an album in signature Federico style inspired by his collection of Cinderlla stamps, in a way only Federico could do. Named after the folk-tale heroine, Cinderellas, throughout the last century, were considered inferior to official postage stamps, but became a sought-after collector’s item. There are some pieces whose origin, circulation context, or illustrator’s name are unk…
Wind Dynamic Organ, One & Two
*2026 stock* Zimoun returns to 12k with Wind Dynamic Organ, One & Two, a pair of longform pieces created with the Wind Dynamic Organ (Prototype III), located in Bern, Switzerland. Zimoun spent many sessions over a few years exploring and recording the instrument and recounts: “I have had the wonderful opportunity to engage regularly and over a longer period with the ‘Wind-Dynamic Organ, Prototype III’—a truly outstanding and marvellous instrument developed by Daniel Glaus and his team. In contra…
Wind Dynamic Organ, Deviations
*2026 stock* Swiss artist Zimoun had the honor and joy to spend time with a unique instrument, the Wind Dynamic Organ (Prototype III), located in Bern, Switzerland. He was given access to explore and record over the past few years. The result is two albums of material: a solo work of more pure and unmaniuplated sound titled Wind Dynamic Organ, One & Two (12k2061) and this, Wind Dynamic Organ, Deviations, on which he collaborates with Taylor Deupree. On this latter work they use the organ’s tones…
Treatise by Cornelius Cardew
*2026 stock* For this collection of live performances, we approached Treatise not just as a score, but as a piece of visual art—an abstract landscape that drew us in with its raw graphic beauty. We felt compelled to translate it into sound using our instruments, while also engaging with the work on its own terms. In researching Cardew’s notes and his Treatise Handbook, it became clear that he didn’t intend the piece to be an open-ended free-for-all. Rather, he encouraged performers to develop a …
The Gods Laugh
"Cotton may expand folk’s raw emotions into more avant garde territories, but they still feel possessed by a blood-red muscle memory that goes back centuries." - The Quietus
Alison Cotton’s fifth solo album is a mesmerizing weave of haunted atmospherics and avant-folk songcraft. Built around her viola, harmonium, and transportive vocals, the album moves between stark drone passages and more layered arrangements with piano, percussion, and synths. The Gods Laugh is a work of quiet, sublime intens…
Périodique des Chemins Boueux / Herbes Étincelles
*300 copies limited edition* A few years ago, we released the acclaimed Serrisme CD together with our friends in Hoeilaart. That record brought together sounds, photography and texts by Jan Matthé, Christina Vantzou, Christophe Piette, and Lieven Martens; singing Hoeilaart’s historic glasshouse table grape cultivation, a tradition initiated in 1865. Today, we are excited to present our second collaboration, this time centered around a local nature reserve. This new edition is initiated by compos…
Split
South Bohemia's Remnant (also well known for his activities as Chevallier Skrog, Cosmic Cause Productions, Pant Y Meddygon among many others...) and Western Alps exile Elisha Morningstar share this one hour long split... Plenty of tense and deranged waves of noise on the eastern side, quieter dark -mostly synth or guitar driven - tones on western side...
Dedicate to Forget
Thomas Carney, also active as Giugno and as sound technician mixing and mastering in an audio spectrum going from techno to hardcore punk, delivers here seven delicate blossoms recorded while traveling Europe and in NYC. Fragmentary poetry, with a firm, translucent style, drawing a faint but significant line of demarcation from his previous releases on No Rent and Trust Collective.

Metal Machine Music: Power To Consume [Vol. 2]
Metal Machine Music: Power To Consume Vol. 2 pushes Lou Reed’s feedback inferno into a new era, unleashing Merzbow, Masonna, Lydia Lunch, Blixa Bargeld, Martin Rev and more in a maximalist, Record Store Day 2026 hallucination of infinite noise.

Metal Machine Music: Power To Consume [Vol. 1]
On Metal Machine Music: Power To Consume Vol. 1, a coalition of noise heavyweights channels Lou Reed’s most infamous album into a new crucible of feedback, tape rot and industrial grind, where extremity becomes form and chaos is sculpted into brutal, hypnotic clarity.
Duo
On Duo, Bugge Wesseltoft and Henrik Schwarz erase the line between jazz club and club culture, weaving live piano and deep house sensibilities into a remastered, 180g hymn to groove, melody and open‑ended improvisation.
Lunng
On Lunng, Sam Slater weaponizes his own contradictions, crashing drone metal, brass bands, industrial folk opera and black‑metal flashbacks into a volatile, hyper‑emotional surge of sound that feels both deeply personal and magnificently unstable.
In the Beginning
On In the Beginning, Gadea scores Ala Nunu’s animated essay on anthropocentrism with a delicately disorienting language: hushed electro‑acoustics, ghosted field recordings and Marina Herlop’s voice tracing fragile halos around three surreal, all‑too‑real stories.
