Padang Moonrise (The Birth Of The Modern Indonesian Recording Industry ⋆ 1955-69)
Tip! Padang Moonrise is the story of modern Indonesian music that emerged underneath the volcanoes of Java and Sumatra. Java, the most populous island in the archipelago of over 17,000 islands and 1300 distinct ethnic groups, and its capital city Jakarta, was where most of the post-colonial national identity, politics, administration and music production was centred.
Traditional songs from Java, Sumatra, Bali and beyond were re-imagined by a small group of state-sponsored musicians that also com…
Semi Mondi
Tip! A musician expresses himself with sound; it seems a triviality, but any thought or idea launched takes shape and can be heard, can be listened to. Thus in a spontaneous way, one after another, particles can end up coming together bearing fruit, creating environments and scenarios, evolving. In this case, Maurizio Abate decides to paint short sound pictures, which become real pieces. These pieces are submitted to the listening of friends, who by free associations name them following their ow…
Moonkeeper Reckoning
*200 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Sequel to Moonkeeper Exodus, also by Monochrome Echo (aka Simon Little) and the third and final part of his sci-fi inspired space synth trilogy.
Moonkeeping Reckoning: Colonising the solar system. One step closer to exploring the known universe and life's great mystery: are we alone? What was meant to be mankind's greatest achievement has turned into its greatest nightmare. Because we are most certainly not alone. Having awoken an ancient forc…
Murdercoaster
*220 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* What to write about an album called Murdercoaster...? After several years of far too much serious stuff going on, I figured it was time to have a bit of fun again! This album draws on all the very worst of home video entertainment as an influence (previous listeners will be shocked by this revelation). I'm talking about the kind of trashy fun that required all the cheap latex, slime and screaming teenagers available to make the thinly draped p…
Hacker
*200 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* This album and its concept was inspired by Kevin Mitnick’s book, A Ghost In The Wires: My Adventures As The World’s Most Wanted Hacker. Hackerexists in a largely forgotten world; the pre-Internet, pre-Windows era of the 1980s, when you had to use dial up modems to access another system and hacking was less about code and more about using social engineering to con people into giving you the information you needed.
Sunshine Has Blown
Tip! *150 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* 2022 reissue of the now cult classic 2006 CDr release by Australian improvisers Joel Stern and Adam Park: "Observers, due to the location of the site, would always be in movement and their impressions would become an experience in space—time. They would see slab-like forms in ever-changing relationships. Private sensation would be obvious from the play with the relationships of size and position of the planes and the employed and implied …
Giorgio Agamben
*30 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Pentiments welcomes the philosopher of math, contemporary artist, curator, enigmatic black sheep enfant terrible and close friend Eric Schmid to the fold with the conclusion to his infamous “Philosophers” trilogy. Those familiar with the bombast and outrageousness that has thus far characterized this intrepid tripartite persiflage will know what to expect here. The transmutation of the satirist precedents set by dark horse figures like Dieter R…
Novecento
** 300 copies, Red Vinyl ** With his score to Bernardo Bertolucci's 1976 historical epic Novecento, Ennio Morricone delivered one of the richest efforts of his legendary career. A sweeping and impressively variegated work, it manages to capture the period detail required to complement Bertolucci's onscreen narrative, yet boasts a timelessness that's the hallmark of all the composer's masterpieces. Morricone's mastery of mood and texture reaches new zeniths here. Novecento communicates a vast emo…

Groupshow found their first opportunity in the routines of live performance and they used this opportunity to break with these routines. The trio consisting of J…
Sijuaq The Seer Curlew

Spell of Remembrance
Organic textures, intricate field recordings and cinematic tendencies collide on Los Angeles-based sound artist and composer’s first release on Evening Chants: a spiritual pilgrimage through universal memories, crafted in dialogue with the Earth, pink skies and lives forgotten. Los Angeles composer and producer Nicolas Snyder’s second album, Spell of Remembrance, is a spiritual embrace of spontaneity, searching for spaces of dreamlike mutation. Following the deliberate spatial stasis of his 2020…

Demo Trance Discs

I Thought It Was Colourful, But They Said It Was BLACK
*100 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* "This album was created unintentionally during the past two years. I was mostly at home by myself. At times, energy needed to let out and flow. Making sounds channeled my anxiety, boredom, happiness, and nameless feelings. A lot had happened, yet nothing really happened. A lot of the sounds were created either on my double bed, in the wardrobe, or in my living room, a small part of it was possibly recorded in the bathroom.
The album was record…

You Always Will Be
Dylan Henner returns to AD93 with a follow-up to 2020's 'The Invention of the Human', plugging the teachings of Terry Riley and Steve Reich into a vivid digital dimension that touches Geinoh Yamashirogumi's "Akira" OST and Spencer Clark's tape-fucked neo-psychedelia.
Perú Selvático - Sonic Expedition Into The Peruvian Amazon 1972-1986
Tip! *In process of stocking* Less than a hundred miles inland from the capital city of Lima lies the great Peruvian jungle, an untamed land of impenetrable forests and endless winding rivers. In its isolated cities, cut off from the fashions of the capital, a unique style of music began to develop, inspired equally by the sounds of the surrounding forests, the roll of the mighty Amazon and Ucayali Rivers, and the rhythms of cumbia picked up from distant stations on transistor radios. With the a…
Sonido Verde de Moyobamba
Formed in 1980 by guitar prodigy Leonardo Vela Rodriguez, Sonido Verde de Moyobamba created some of the hardest, craziest Cumbia to emerge from the Peruvian jungle. With distorted, surf-addled guitar facing off against lysergic organ and hyperactive tropical rhythms, Sonido Verde conjured the organic sound of the dense forests surrounding their hometown while riding their dance-party grooves to dizzying psychedelic peaks.
Compiled by Analog Africa, Sonido Verde de Moyobamba presents eight ultra-…
