Ranking Dread In Dub
Ranking Dread In Dub, the legendary album first released in 1982 on the Silver Camel UK label by the late Tony Gorman, is making a triumphant return to record stores in a completely remastered edition. This definitive reissue spotlights the timeless musical production that made this album a cornerstone of dub music.
With rhythms delivered by The Roots Radics and Sly & Robbie, and tracks meticulously mixed at the iconic King Tubby's studio, the album stands as a testament to the genre’s innovativ…
Hard Ware
Patrick Cowley’s Hard Ware is a ten-track time capsule from the late disco era, weaving together raw synth grooves, industrial textures, and playful electronic vamps. The album is expansive, sensual, and just a touch sardonic, showcasing Cowley’s boundary-pushing imagination and pioneering electronic production sensibility.
Morality
*500 copies limited edition* Following the limited edition CD reissue of Broken Flag’s 'Never Say When' compilation earlier this year comes this new reissue of 1985’s 'Morality', also originally released as a cassette on the same label. Featuring too many tracks to go on one disc, however, 'Morality' is now presented as a 2CD set remastered by Puppy38. As with 'Never Say When', this compilation documents the nascent work of many artists still active today in one form or another besides a number …
Testpattern
Evelyne/Masao bring Testpattern to Dark Entries for the label’s first foray into vintage Japanese electronics. Masao Hiruma and Fumio Ichimura’s project Testpattern is known for their release Apres-Midi, a cult slab of synthpop perfection released by Yukihiro Takahashi and Haruomi Hosono’s legendary Yen Records in 1982. While Hiruma and Ichimura parted ways following Apres-Midi, Hiruma’s musical endeavors would continue after recruiting French/American model and vocalist Evelyne Bennu.
The duo …
Inventions
Thumbing through the back pages of German electronic music, Bureau B uncovers another hidden gem from the Sky Records archive: 'Inventions', the 1983 collaboration between Adelbert von Deyen and Dieter Schütz. Fusing expansive kosmische textures with biting rock guitars, motorik rhythms, and the growl of '80s synth-pop, the duo conjure a sonic singularity which still sounds like the future today. Compact yet cosmic, 'Inventions' distils ambient drift and experimental edge into taut, three-minute…
Voyage
Bureau B once again dive into the Sky archive, unearthing another overlooked masterpiece long due for rediscovery. Originally released in 1985, 'Voyage' finds Dieter Schütz venturing beyond his Berlin School roots into a realm of lo-fi immediacy and New Age naivety. Every instrument is played by Schütz himself, except for the drums on "Above", which are performed with syncopated zeal by Michael Fecker. While its textured synthscapes and wistful melodies may echo the aesthetics of 2010s Vaporwave…
Ich Suche Dein Gesicht
Berlin-based project Silberstreif announces the release of their new album Ich suche dein Gesicht, available now on Bandcamp. With a name that translates to “silver lining,” Silberstreif crafts music that reflects both fragility and resilience, weaving together textures of ambient, electronic, and experimental sound.
Ich suche dein Gesicht (“I am searching for your face”) is more than an album: it is a sonic exploration of intimacy, distance, and the fleeting nature of human connection. Across…

My Government Is My Soul
Mannequin Records reissues "My Government Is My Soul", a searing 1989 statement from Bourbonese Qualk, one of the UK’s most defiant and politically engaged experimental acts. Originally released on the group’s own label, this LP captures the uncompromising spirit of a band deeply embedded in the resistance movements of 1980s Britain. Recorded during a turbulent period of social unrest, "My Government Is My Soul" stands as a fierce response to authoritarianism, surveillance, and the neoliberal de…
Even As We Speak: The Music of David Van Tieghem
The American percussionist, composer, and songwriter David Van Tieghem (b. 1955) is something like a musical equivalent to astronomy’s “hypothetical astronomical object”: while evidence of an irresistible gravitational pull can be felt in deep reaches of the cosmos, its source is enshrouded in darkness, revealing glimpses of celestial power to astute observers. For David Van Tieghem, these observers include a dizzyingly impressive cast of landmark musicians with whom he has composed and performe…

Easy Green Proof
First on-record meeting of Randy Greif and long-time conspirator Alva Svoboda. A more abstract, electronically-processed work than their collaborative tracks on Golden Joy Club or Shadow Traders.
In The Breeze
A more than welcomed re-issue for the iconic post-punk band coming all the way from Watford. The album showcase a collection of unreleased recordings – mostly conceived between 1981 and 1983 – and it is a right companion to their two studio masterpiece: "Epic Garden Music" and "Feeding The Flames".
At That Time
Originally issued on cassette in limited runs between 1989 and 1990, At That Time is a long-overdue excavation of Nostalgie Éternelle – one of the most quietly crucial names in the European DIY underground. The compilation brings together tracks from three early self-released tapes – Damned Forever Those Who Listen To This Tape (split with Due), Art Is The Tool (split with From Nursery to Misery), and Virtual Reality (split with PN 4632402) – issued on the band’s own One Last Dream label and cir…
Flora
Tip! Following their 2024 reissue of Hiroshi Yoshimura’s classic album, Surround, Temporal Drift proudly presents the first-ever reissue of Flora, Yoshimura’s underappreciated ambient classic.
Flora was originally recorded and completed in 1987, and remained unreleased until 2006, nearly three years after Yoshimura’s passing in 2003. The album is chronologically and stylistically a follow-up to his acclaimed 1986 works Green and Sorround, wherein Yoshimura continues to play with the ambience of …
Dans Ta Nuit
French coldwave act Corps Diplomatique comes to Dark Entries with Dans Ta Nuit, a collection of tracks recorded between 1984-1987. Founded in Marseille by Olivier Aubin, Marie-Eve Bensussan, Patrick Loubet and Nicolas Pélissier, Corps Diplomatique remain shrouded in mystery. The band only released one 7” during their time, 1988’s Paradis I, in addition to appearing with three tracks on the La Muse Vénale compilation, a holy grail for devotees of the French coldwave. Dans Ta Nuit brings us nine t…
Holland Festival
Infinite Expanse is excited to announce the reissue of Holland Festival, the soundtrack for The Theatre for Moveable People, Objects and Music, originally performed live in 1983 during the Holland Festival at the City Theatre in Amsterdam. This first-time vinyl edition captures the essence of an audacious and provocative Fluxus art event which remains a landmark in the Dutch avant-garde scene.
The recordings, captured over four consecutive nights, were edited at the Exart studio in IJmuiden and …
