Podrido Amanecer de Los Impíos
*50 copies limited edition* Iberian Harsh Noise annihilation! Loud and corrosive tracks from both spanish projects: Signatus vomits desolate no-input sounds mixed with bones and metal manipulation, enacting as the dagger of Iberian wrath, while Soma’s ravaged screams and crackling high pitched frequencies enact as the the agony of the hundred legions that bled in Iberian soil. Culminating in a storm of aggression and destruction, both acts show perfectly how Harsh Noise nowadays should sound lik…
Dino Velvet

While joining forces with German sicko Pissoir Rouge for this release, Chaos Casc…

Wild Noise Hall
*2024 stock* "Since the early 70's and Luc Ferrari's Presque Rien N°1, we are now offered the possibility to listen to any sound coming from natural phenomenons and soundscapes as musical composition. We can listen to them as any audio-naturalist do, enjoying the different species of animals and sounds from the storm, the rain, the wind, and the space in between echoing all of them. But we can also listen to them as sounds in an acousmatic way, forgetting the different animals, the storm, the ra…
Nothing Will Disappear
London-based experimentalists Kinkajous have announced their new studio album, Nothing Will Disappear, set for release on October 18th via Nottingham's Running Circle label. Maximalism at its most subtle and tender – ambient music at its most rejuvenated. There are echoes of Sam Shepherd's collaborative work with Pharoah Sanders as Floating Points, and the subtle timbre shifts of Jon Hopkins and James Holden more so than their capital-"J" jazz contemporaries. A marked step-up from their previous…
On Bare Ground
*200 copies limited edition* Red Brut’s third album, "On Bare Ground", is a sonic tapestry woven from the final threads of her Rotterdam existence. Entirely composed of soundscapes captured during her last two years in the city, the album evolves into a poignant farewell as its creation mirrors the passage of time, culminating in a profound departure from her life there. “On Bare Ground” is a sculptural work blending its lo-fi with haunting melodies, field recordings, and ethereal soundscapes. U…

Memory Default
Coming down the mountain to the sea… A meeting of enigmatic minds, STROM|MORTS and venoztks, at The Summerhouse on the coast of southern England gave rise to an alliance – "beards vs bald"; venoztks using unprocessed short wave channelled through modular synth, guitar pedals and other unknown physical and non-physical devices which were lost in the maelstrom. The result is just downright peculiar. But with charm; "Hotel Echo" echoes and channels earlier insane attempts to dance to farmersmanual.…
Franciska og Emilie
Jonas Torstensen returns to Discreet Music with the second Franciska album, following up the much praised Tryghed (Discreet Music 12) that was released in early 2023. Since Tryghed came out, Franciska has quickly become an established forefront of a young, new generation of Scandinavian experimental DIY musicians. This time a joint effort with his longtime friend and collaborator Camille Helt Haarder, the new album is dedicated to their shared hometown Odense in Denmark.
Mainly based on piano lo…
Freak Out
We are pleased to reissue the masterpiece cassette of the early Acid Mothers Temple, which is an exquisite mix of psychedelic and noise that creates an unidentifiable sound. The reason for the mysteriousness of the sound is the editing that forms the composition and development of the sound in a way that would normally be unthinkable, and will reaffirm the uniqueness of Acid Mothers Temple.
