Harmograph
On Harmograph, Matteo Scaioli turns self-built synths and live tablas into a single breathing organism, stretching 35 minutes of big-room ambience into shifting patterns where pulse, overtones and hallucinated folk-memories slowly braid together.
Remembering Well
*300 copies limited edition* Over the past several years, Toronto-based multi-instrumentalist Max Klebanoff, best known as the drummer for critically lauded death metal outfit Tomb Mold, has slowly expanded the purview of his Death Kneel project. From a spate of hermetic short-form tapes to the uniformly excellent “Dawn Simulation” on bellwether noise label Chondritic Sound, the project has blossomed into a distinct force within the landscape of contemporary experimental music. “Remembering Well…
Iterae
Iterae is issued as a multi-disc edition designed for both shelf and wall—referencing the scale of the vinyl LP while quietly subverting its familiar expectations. The format distributes the album's material across four 80mm compact discs. Each disc can be played independently or sequenced freely, extending the music's own recursive methodology into its physical presentation. A full-sized compact disc is included on the rear for continuous playback. The design incorporates an integrated rear wal…
Garry Kasparov vs Deep Blue
For the players, chess is a game of competition. Defeat the opponent by surpassing their strategic prowess. A neutral spectator is able to embrace the kinetic serenity of what the players create together. The game unfolds as a slow pendulum swing, the players trading tiny motions between calculative stretches of silence, the black and white pieces intermingling and thinning over the axis of time. Heery's album hinges on a dialogue between two synthesised elements - a patient electronic surge and…
XKatedral Anthology Series III
Tip Tip Tip! XKatedral Anthology Series III is the third installment in the label’s ongoing archival series, and it arrives as both a celebration and a statement of intent. Marking ten years of XKatedral, this double‑vinyl set gathers works composed between 2014 and 2025 by artists who treat harmony and timbre as slow‑moving terrains rather than backdrops. Synthetic and acoustic sources, algorithmic procedures and close‑mic’d performance all serve a common aim: precise, patient work in the realm…

This double-vinyl set contains an array of pieces dating from 2010 - 2020.

“The w…
The Garden Suite
Acclaimed musicians Nitai Hershkovits and Daniel Dor will release their highly anticipated album, “The Garden Suite”. Following their previous collaboration on Daniel Dor’s debut album, “Four Petals”, this new project sees the duo exploring uncharted musical territory with an innovative, Moog-based sound.
Inspired by the groundbreaking work of synth pioneer Malcolm Cecil, “The Garden Suite” marries electronic textures with the richness of orchestral sound. Drawing from a vast range of influences…
Minority Of The Dead
The backstory: 5 September, 2012 was the day John Cage would have turneed 100. Centenary celebrations for a prominent artist would seem rather conventional. Inappropriate for an extremely unconventional artist. But seemingly inappropriate things can be quite appropriate in unconventional contexts. So why not participate in a 100th birthday commemorative project? No sooner said than done...
The Beginning of Japanese Electroacoustic Music Vol.2
Big Tip! Born in the mid-1950s, the NHK Electronic Music Studio was a world-leading lab where Japan’s electronic music took shape. This album gathers works created there between 1968 and 1974—a vivid snapshot of chance operations, ring modulation, waveform experiments, broadcast collage, and intense hand-made tape craft.
Launched in 1993 in memory of the studio’s founding architect Hiroshi Shioya, our project treats these tapes as living works—not nostalgia. We re-check sources, rebuild the li…
The Beginning of Japanese Electroacoustic, Vol.16 - Electronic Convergence Oto no Hajimari wo Motomete
Tip! Celebrating the 90th anniversary of the birth of Maki Ishii (1936-2003), we present "Electronic Convergence," a collection of his pioneering electroacoustic works. These tracks represent a crucial era in the history of Japanese electronic music, primarily produced at the NHK Electronic Music Studio around the 1970s. Ishii’s unique fusion of traditional Japanese aesthetics and cutting-edge technology remains incredibly avant-garde even today. In February 2026, special memorial concerts will …
Canti Di Vita E D'Amore / Per Bastiana / Omaggio A Vedova (LP)

L-Tryptophan / Somnosections / Pre-Natal
On L‑Tryptophan / Somnosections / Pre‑Natal, Delta‑Sleep‑Inducing Peptide gather three key cassettes into a two‑and‑a‑half‑hour analogue dreamcycle: electro‑hypnotic sleep studies where radio ghosts, tape hiss and synth pulse blur the line between natural and supernatural.
Pensieri di Dina
*60 copies limited edition* "Pensieri di Dina" is an electroacoustic ambient work for guitar, saxophone, and digital synthesis. Each track was born from improvised sessions using acoustic, electronic, and digital instruments, then sculpted with sound manipulation processes in Max/MSP. The result creates an intimate, layered, contemplative soundscape.
The EP takes its name from Cesare Pavese's work “Pensieri di Dina” (Dina's Thoughts). The titles of the tracks make up the entire poem, which perfe…
Muzak For The Encouragement Of Unproductivity
Inspired by Sam Kidel’s ›mimetic hacking‹ concept, Berlin-based composer Jasminev Guffond pipes opiated brass and woodwind motifs into a reverb chamber modelled on an Amazon fulfilment centre.
»Muzak for the Encouragement of Unproductivity« is a poetic inversion of Muzak’s traditional role in stimulating seamless productivity in the workplace. Beginning as a pre-radio music distribution network (1934, U.S.), Muzak was transmitted along electrical wires with the intention of being at once ubiquit…
I Only Like Difficult Art (and music)
Celebrating its 3 year anniversary, Difficult Art and Music presents a double-album of forward-thinking experimental composition. Inspired equally by the classical composers of the Avant-Garde – the likes of Ligeti, Kagel, Young and Cage – alongside the more expressive end of contemporary electronic music, DAAM has spent the last 3 years championing the awkward, the academic, and the overlooked. Founded by the audio-visual artist Distant Animals (who has released work on labels such as Hallow Gr…
Botul À La Campagne
2014 release ** "There’s an incredible amount being offered up on Botul à la campagne, which takes ideas and brings out so much that the average musician wouldn’t think to do. Côté and Kese both manage to brilliantly bring forth so many different ideas and techniques, and string them all together into one coherent album package that just works. Botul à la campagne sees jazz music turn into dark ambient music turn into classical music without any notion or effort whatsoever. There’s some wonderfu…
Points of Inaccessibility
Listening to Points of Inaccessibility is an encounter with a sound field that is constantly in flux. Elements surface briefly, shift position and recede, creating a sense of motion that resists stable interpretation. The music moves between closeness and vastness, carrying traces of memory while withholding a clear point of resolution.
The album’s visual identity completes the project’s conceptual arc. In Mexico City, where Irisarri and Schilp first met, Daniel Castrejón transformed stills from…
Hidden
The inimitable Richard Youngs returns to Black Truffle with this third full-length for the label, »Hidden«. Like »CXXI« and »Modern Sorrow«, »Hidden« unfolds across two side-long pieces at once eminently listenable and possessed of the ›bloody-minded‹ dedication to having an idea and sticking with it’ that Youngs himself has identified as one of the key qualities of his work.
At the core of both pieces are rapid, randomised arpeggios generated with a Moog Grandmother, hypnotic patterns that woul…
Pre-Monofonic Orchestra
*2025 stock. 250 copies limited edition* Maurizio Marsico presents Pre-Monofonic Orchestra, a paradoxical title that suggests both limitation and expansion. Working within self-imposed restrictions of monophonic synthesis, Marsico creates orchestral textures that shouldn't exist, building complex harmonies from single-voice sources through overdubbing and processing.
The album demonstrates how constraint breeds creativity, with each track exploring different strategies for creating polyphonic il…
