Sensational Conversations
Bruno Tonisi's debut full-length, Sensational Conversations, presents itself as an artifact of impossible communication - a spectral dialogue between the Italian artist and legendary New York rapper Sensational that unfolds like an intercepted transmission from some parallel dimension. Released on lugar Alto, this singular work transforms what began as a gesture of contact into something far more enigmatic: a deconstructed hip-hop meditation that feels equal parts cosmic and street-level.
The al…
Winterspring/Summerfall
*400 copies limited edition* Perhaps his most luminous work to date, multi-instrumentalist Eelco Topper, also known as Felbm, presents a resounding and timeless suite in winterspring/summerfall. The work is a natural progression of his two latest solo feats, Elements of Nature and cycli infini, as it taps into nature and cyclical patterns while expanding upon these themes through the lens of Nijūshi-sekki, the Japanese 24-point seasonal system. Whilst reading a book about the Japanese tea ceremo…
mathematical model 0010
*300 copies limited edition* Drawing from field recordings collected during a trip to Japan, boring tables saturates sonic vignettes in sentimental key, replaying familiar traces of lived experience into something more abstract. The seven tracks on mathematical model 0010, Luca Quartarone's debut album, trail through evolving tonal expanses that envelop the environment in a perpetually expanding haze of serenity. Though sonic fragments hail from the everyday, the compositions themselves inevitab…

Formed by David Grubbs and Jim O’Rourke, Gastr del Sol emerged from the fertile Chicago music scene of the early 1990s, pushing the boundaries of rock, folk, and modern composition. “Crookt, Crac…
Sonor
For a few fleeting moments during a sunset, the sky is cast a vivid shade of amber. A dramatic flare of colour, a moment belonging to both the day and the night. It is within this vibrant, ephemeral world, that Mongolian-born, Munich-based Enji has written her new album Sonor. Sonor is a record full of life and optimism, from an artist finding the beauty of existing between two worlds, much as a sunset does. Between the cultures of Mongolia and Germany, tradition and innovation, nostalgia and ex…
Sords
Sords by Meilt blends noise, musique concrète, and lofi tape textures into a gritty, abstract sound collage. Saturated loops, found sounds, and analog decay create a visceral, fragmented listening experience rooted in sonic experimentation.
Piling Against Twenty Centuries of History
A decaying transmission of lo-fi textures, fractured drones, and dark ambient noise. uœrhe crafts a sonic archive of entropy and memory—where time collapses into static, and history hums beneath layers of analog dust.

Silent Majority
Kae Takahashi’s Anti Itch Cream unveils “Silent Majority,” a bold evolution blending abrasive noisecore with melodic clarity. This album showcases her experimental range—chaotic noise, clean vocals, and hypnotic, imperfect rhythms—reflecting her signature creative freedom on Frei zum Abriss Kollektiv.
Pohreb
Richard Hronský’s “Pohreb” uses intimate soundscapes—wood, radio, bird songs—to evoke childhood memories and the grief of loss, transforming personal audio diaries into a universal meditation on change, tradition, and time’s passage.

Thank You, Guitar
In the ongoing battle between technical virtuosity and authentic expression, most guitar "shredders" have chosen the wrong side - trafficking in overwrought drama while remaining devoid of soul, viewing music as competitive sport rather than spiritual exploration. Enter Cyrus Pireh, whose latest Palilalia release Thank You, Guitar represents nothing less than a revolutionary approach to "transcendental shred electric guitar music" that upcycles the despised 32nd-note neck sprint into something g…
Baboon and Chest
From the frayed edges of sounds that once hummed and the lingering ghost of forgotten amplifier feedback & the unanswered answering machine message echo, Glands of External Secretion return with their most different album until the next one. "Baboon and Chest" is a four-pronged stumble through the usual-yet-unusual and weird-yet-no-weird delightful auditory wreckage. This "collection" stitches together echoes across time, from 1987 to 2025 and from San Francisco and Long Beach then to Edinburgh …

Split
Portuguese Funeral returns after a demo last year with 6 tracks of insane, experimental oddities. Highly original amalgamation of sounds from the fringes, conveyed in absolute mania, these tracks traverse from Dark/Synthwave music, to deconstructed Noise Rock, to infantile Industrial music and a lot of things in between. A tongue-in-cheek collage of demential philosophical madness.
CAB returns also following up to 2024’s “Roadkill” demo out on Rasga. Another release of transgressive Power Elect…
