Niu
*Edition of 250 hand-numbered copies, handmade textile artwork, printed inner sleeve* Rauelsson's third solo album for Sonic Pieces focuses on simplicity and minimalism. It recalibrates his love for ambient with an austere approach that conjures an atmosphere of silence and solitude. On Niu, the artist has traded his craft for shimmering layers of sound clusters and electronic editing in favor of a predominantly raw and acoustic recording. Recorded primarily in Sofia and Berlin and mixed at Saal…
Reflections in the Space of No Space
*75 copies limited edition* Meditated acts in inter-dimensional resonance; the acoustic vacuum-seal container of recording; context withheld. No possibility of representation.

Extra frequencies can be heard in some places between speakers. Louder playback displays increasing detail. At 80dB+, the room often completes the piece. This release is meant t…
Blue-Gray
*80 copies limited edition* A mesmerizing blend of ambient guitar textures and loops layered on top of subtle field recordings, creating a tranquil yet mysterious atmosphere. Sparse, improvisational lines that gently unfold, reverberate and stretch out into spacious, meditative soundscapes.
Continuing A Worn Out Tradition IV
*150 copies limited edition* The fourth edition in the label’s compilation series brings together an almost entirely new cohort of ten artists from across the globe.

All digital and physical proceeds from this edition go towards Medical Aid For Palestine and the Lebanese Red Cross.

Bangone Ensemble
Big Tip! *200 copies * In the mid-70s in Northern New Jersey, some friends and I formed an ensemble called Atomic Squawk, with which we used our extremely limited musical techniques to play the sorts of whacked-out sounds about which none of our fucking peers gave a rat's ass. “Funny” talking blues, free form skronk, vaguely detourned covers of Beefheart and the Velvets -- these were our stocks in trade, and much happy time was whiled away in Randy Charles' basement drinking and making noise, si…
