St/Fr/Sp
2025 stock There’s a gulf of contrasts to be heard between Seefeel’s 1993 debut Quique and its 1995 follow-up Succour. Both are searching works in their own right, two shining examples of the fertile crossover of shoegaze and electronic, but it’s clear that, somewhere in the album-to-album transition, things got darker for the project.
A growing fascination with the dystopian ends of dub and ambient are thoroughly explored on the Starethrough EP, the first of Seefeel’s recordings for Warp, a spi…
(Ch-vox) (REDUX)
2025 stock If Succour was Seefeel’s departure from the cul de sac of shoegaze music to wander through the desert of abstract electronics, 1996’s (Ch-Vox) which has been out of print since its original release is the sound of a group building a civilisation in the remotest spot, revelling in their sound far away from the rest of the world, their tones arriving to us like strange signals through the air. Singular as each of Seefeel’s LPs are, (Ch-Vox) could well be their definitive statement, a co…
Paese Sotto Inchiesta
Edition of 400. In the twilight of the 1960s, as Italian cinema reached new creative heights, a parallel universe of musical experimentation was quietly flourishing in the studios of Rome and Milan.

Now, Musica Per Immagini presents the first reissu…
