Błoto’s bold 2020 debut brought forth three albums in just twelve months.

The idea for the album had been simmering within the band since the …

Yellow vinyl / 180 grams, limited and numbered edition 300 copies. Following the tragic passing of the legendary Demetrio Stratos in 1979, the band Area wisely chose to forgo vocals (save for a few backing harmonies) on this album, as no one could ever replace the "maestro della voce". While this instrumental album may not push boundaries like its predecessors, it showcases a commendable blend of talent, with each musician shining brightly, particularly the remarkable bass work by Ares Tavolazzi…

Tip! *200 copies limited release* "Soplo" is the debut solo album from Berlin-based Mexican multimedia artist, sound designer, and DJ, Daniela Huerta -- and a true thing of beauty it is.

Huerta places an interest in mythology at the center of her practice, using it as a springboard to explore…
