Ginnungagaldr
New opus from the ever enigmatic ritual act Undirheimar. Ginnungagaldr is the result of over 3 years of contemplative, ritual and shamanic based work centered on the uncreated primordial nothingness of pre-creational chaos. Not inspired by the lore, but through personal experience, which, in fact, differs in certain aspects from the already established and published work. There is not one unique path. There are countless streams flowing toward the vast black ocean, the source. Just as there are …

*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Sweden's enigmatic musician Marcus Lönebrink returns after a long hiatus with his follow-up to the highly acclaimed album "Akrasia" (Cyclic Law 2007). "Modus Vivendi" continues his introspective sonic pilgrimage into the vast terrain residing in the intermissions between failure and salvation. Contemplation of stasis as a way of life leads into a paradox: beneath the dormant surface of fossilised and frozen inner landscapes, underlying movement continues …

The Generous Law
“The Generous Law,” a new album by organist Jack Langdon and guitarist Anthony Vine, presents a glimpse of the inner voices and acoustical splendor of the Fisk Organ at Wellesley College, enlivened by the intuition of two improvisers. At the keyboards, Langdon crafts geometries of patiently braided lines and incisions, configuring the hues and shades of organ stops with an ear to the materiality of sound. Vine seizes on this, tuning his guitar to the organ and bringing his strings into alignment…

Murals For Immersion
‘Murals For Immersion’ is Kenneth James Gibson’s 6th ambient outing under his given name, this time around collaborating with saxophonist Paul Carman who played and recorded with Frank Zappa in what Zappa called The Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life. In late 2022, Gibson and Carman started getting together at Gibson’s Idyllwild studio, laying down tons of Saxophone sounds - layers of drones, melody lines, and off kilter noises. Gibson processed, sculpted, and arranged these sounds into full…
Howl
Limited edition of 500 + 12" art print. Daisy Rickman’s second full-length album Howl. The Cornish painter and musician has drawn inspiration from the landscape of her home county and created a collection of ethereal, out-of-time, psychy, pastoral folk songs in homage to, in Daisy’s own words: “the sun, the stars, and explorations of the cycles both within ourselves and throughout the turning wheel of the year.” The album sleeve, inner sleeve and art print all feature paintings made by Daisy Ric…

Dramatic Accessories
** 2024 lucky restock, sold out at the source ** Luckily John Wiese doesn't need any introduction, mang did 1234's of collabs, released tons of beauties on his own helicopter label, played with sunn o)) and is a great graphic designer!

Less a wall of nuttery and buckets full of zist and garbage thrown at your head, more of an aural test to see how much teasing your insides and your flappy ears can stand. A collec…
Selectie 02
** 2024 lucky restock, sold out at the source ** Recorded in 1975. Selected by Dennis Tyfus. This is the second in a series of Edmond de Deyster (who sadly died in '99) archival lp's. Edmond de Deyster left an incredible amount of reel tapes behind, full of beautiful analog synthesizer music. His family was kind enough to share this archive with us. It took me way longer than expected to get this second installment together, partly because I wanted to interview his relatives and other people who…

** 2024 lucky restock, sold out at the source ** So Sweet! Edition of 400, with a full-colour sleeve and insert. It’s taken 14 years for these extravagant Icelandic artist troubadours to follow up their last (untitled) album. (At least they managed to give this one a name ; imagine what else they’d be capable of if we’d waited another five years. ) Beach Jolanda transposes their classic calypso - beach - bar - laptop - organ gibberish to the unmanned terrain of public lavatories in the dead of n…
