A Rainbow In Curved Air
• Limited edition of 750 numbered copies on yellow vinyl. 180 gram audiophile vinyl • In the pantheon of American experimental music, few works possess the historical gravitas and enduring influence of Terry Riley's A Rainbow in Curved Air, released in 1969 on CBS Records' short-lived "Music of Our Time" series. This album represents nothing less than a seismic shift in the trajectory of Western art music, establishing compositional and technological precedents that would reverberate through fi…
In C
* Limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on gold vinyl. Includes insert * In the history of Western art music, few compositions have achieved the paradoxical feat of radical simplicity coupled with profound transformative power. Terry Riley's In C, composed in 1964, stands as the most deceptively modest yet revolutionary work of the twentieth century, a single page of musical notation that fundamentally altered the trajectory of American composition and established the foundation of…
Veiled Erosion
Veiled Erosion, the debut album by Anqi Liu, invites listeners into a world of spectral nuance, cultural memory, and fragile connection. Her music breathes through thresholds—between noise and tone, breath and bow, self and other. In the closing Etude for Friends, Liu renders friendship as a sonic practice: intimate, unstable, and quietly transformative. Drawing from Mongolian long song and microtonal chamber traditions, she composes sound as a site of listening, learning, and being-together. Ve…
Rispecchiato in Quarzo
Rispecchiato in quarzo, Dal nero immenso, lèvita, and Traspare assente albore unfold as structured sequences of transformation—transparent, hypnotic, fairy. Each solo instrument (piano, contrabass clarinet, bass flute) interacts with multi-layered electroacoustic textures built entirely from acoustic sources. These “electronics” remain sensitive and natural, shaped through breath, resonance, and subtle manipulations. An 1876 Steinway, spectral clarinet multiphonics, and whispered flute tones for…

It is hard to give a picture of such a m…
Still Forms in Air
*100 copies limited edition* Still Forms in Air is the debut album by Italian composer Francesca Marongiu under her own name. It draws inspiration from mid-1980s Japanese ambient music — Hiroshi Yoshimura, Satoshi Ashikawa, Takashi Kokubo — and, more subtly, from Italian experimental echoes rooted in both personal and cultural memory.
The album unfolds like suspended time, like architecture that quietly bears witness to the shifts that have shaped our cities and the ways we live in them. These t…
Earth Interval + Extended Circular Music (2LP Bundle)
This bundle includes the latest Blume releases, two groundbreaking archival discoveries that illuminate the hidden connections between American experimental music's founding generation and contemporary European avant-garde. Doris Dennison's Earth Interval (1956) emerges from seven decades of obscurity - a pioneering percussion composition by John Cage's forgotten collaborator, brilliantly realized by Third Coast Percussion.
Swiss composer Jürg Frey's first LP presents his crystalline Wandelweise…

Nightclouds + How Do I Know If My Cat Likes Me
From the always remarkable hands of Blank Forms come two new stunning LPs from the Stockholm based composer Ellen Arkbro: “Nightclouds”, comprising five minimalist improvisations for solo organ, and “How do I know if my cat likes me?”, made within a trio comprising Hanne Lippard and Hampus Lindwall, interweaving wry conceptualism and topical humor with poetics, voice, texture, and tone. Each absolutely brilliant and distinct, they stand as some of the most exciting works we've encountered from A…
How Do I Know If My Cat Likes Me
Inspired by minimalistic icon La Monte Young and guitarist Allan Holdsworth, Nightclouds is a powerful collection of jazz pieces for solo pipe organ. Over long improvisation and shorter compositions, Swedish composer and installation artist Ellen Arkbro employs her usually epic chord structures and adds in a more self-reflective tone than previously.

Watt
Watt’s clarinet-driven soundscapes hypnotize, thicken, and circle endlessly. 2021 collaborations—edited on infinite tapes—blur time and unity in a vinyl collective composition.
Silentium
A breathtaking journey into Arvo Pärt’s sacred minimalism. This LP features rare and moving renditions—including a radically slowed performance of Silentium—that illuminate the composer’s most intimate, time-suspending work.
Ascending Music
The pieces brought together here were assembled as the fruit of collaboration undertaken by Falzone and Evans-Weiler. Instrumentation is the strongly unifying element. The reed organ, once ubiquitous in the private music setting of the home as well as a default practice instrument for organists, is now regarded as something of a relic of the past. However, the instrument continues to afford certain distinct advantages, particularly with regard to dynamic variation by virtue of the player’s direc…
Simultaneous Contrast
After-Image traces composer Lila Meretzky’s exploration of memory, color, and time through chamber, vocal, and electroacoustic works, culminating in luminous studies for strings and percussion inspired by personal and historical narratives.
A lifetime of annotations
Feldman and Tobias Hume (performed by Luciana Elizondo and Guy Vandromme).
Ade: Ein Stück Über Den Abschied
1988 release ** "In his musical theater piece "Ade," Harald Weiss combines elements of classical, folk, rock, and minimal music to create his signature style, which defies categorization. Solo and choral vocals, string quartet, piano, synthesizers, and percussion accompany the performance on the imaginary stage of the listener. The music leaves a feeling of emotion that can manifest itself as a lasting inner silence."
