Ritual Fever
There are moments of silent depth in which the winter of the scalpel of meaning and the spring of the sound-born, unleashed body look upon the world fully present. When the notes at last are heard, the ordered world is their indistinguishable score. The ritual of process is that which carries. The process of ritual is that which brings moments both transitory and immortal, apprehended by musician, seer, clairvoyant, herald; the welling tones that emanate from the crystal salt of shattered pri…
Lost in the Valley of the Sun
For the follow up to their self-titled debut for Bluesanct, Pacific Walker went in search of the occulted answers to cosmic inquiry, charting a star-crossed course across the elder seas of private-press new age cassettes and back-catalogue self-help tapes.
Still waters run deep and from those depths, the guiding light they find may lead them to an eternity far beyond their third-eye ideologies.
Like Ted Lucas on a brown tab from Gibby Haynes, our sonic travelers find themselves lost in the slush…
Superdank
Lo Five is as proud as he is anxious to present SUPERDANK, a CD album packed to the green gills with heavy dubs for sleepy schlubs. SUPERDANK is ostensibly presented as a collection of hardware stoner jams, structured in the form of an hour long edible-induced psycho-narrative, taking the listener on an aural voyage - kicking off at pleasant buzztown, calling past existential paranoiaville, then landing back in the relative safety of sofaborough in time for tea and crumpets. But what is SUPERDAN…
Cyan Music
Tip! ** Edition of 70 ** On Cyan Music, Atte Elias Kantonen sets out to answer a deceptively simple question: what happens when shimmer and sheen – qualities usually belonging to light – are reimagined as pure sound. Across eight pieces he uses radiant, meticulously sculpted synthesis to build a world where timbre behaves like reflective surfaces, refracting and scattering in ways that feel almost tangible. Rather than leaning on obvious ambient tropes, he treats each track as a small laboratory…
Music From The Other Side Of The Fence
A collection of previously unreleased material (between '75 & '90) by Enno Velthuys.Compiled by Hessel Veldman.
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…
Studies On A River
»Ka ora te awa. Ka ora te iwi. The river is well, so the people are well«, says artist and writer Hana Pera Aoake. »In a Māori worldview, everything is connected and contains mauri, the life spark or essence inherent in all things, as they contain the residue of ancestors through whakapapa, or genealogy. Within Western environmental histories, there is a gap in knowledge around what we can learn through an act of listening.«
Hana Pera Aoake’s words resonated with Hinako Omori when they were invi…
In A Few Places Along The River
Soft Echoes presents the first physical edition of ‘In a Few Places Along the River’ by Abul Mogard as a limited run of 500 vinyl copies. Originally released digitally in 2022, the album now appears in its intended form, marking the label’s second release.
Three long pieces, composed between 2019 and 2022, emerged from Mogard’s meticulous experimentation with analogue and digital instruments. Slowly evolving harmonic fields of layered drones and spectral textures drift across the record. They ar…
Standers
The devil’s in the details. It always was and it always will be. It’s there for those who seek it out.
Waves of Time
On Waves of Time, Gazzi lets rhythm dissolve into a slow emotional tide, stretching piano figures, hushed electronics, and carefully placed silences into music that feels less like a set of tracks than a single, continuous act of contemplation.

Stealth [Gold Edition]
2026 repress with new cover art, which is the original artwork designed by Takao firstly released on his private Bandcamp page in early 2018.
"Stealth" is the aptly-titled debut album from Tokyo-based composer/producer Takao. Gliding in under the radar with thirteen slyly sweet and subtle miniatures, these pieces are refreshing light-explosions of gentle harmony and modestly grand melodies. Fans of New Age and tonal minimalism wil enjoy this music, but its brevity reveals a pop-influenced aesthe…
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…
Frequencies In The Fog
100 copies limited release Sound trails, minimal structures built with pads, discreet electronic elements, slow, deep and enveloping bass lines, backgrounds of confused voices treated in reverse, circular movements alternating with liquid stasis and quiet... Creaks on layered sound substrates of indecipherable nature, which seem to emerge from a thick blanket of fog that reveals fragments of real landscapes here and there, ready to disappear from view again after a few moments, once more hidden …
Grotto In The Sun
*100 copies limited release* Winding through cavernous and dark meanders, amid gurgling water, rustling sounds, low and deep pulsations, incisive and impactful sound masses, floating waves, crystalline drips, sudden rays of light, electronic spirals, and unexpected openings onto almost soothing soundscapes and quiet environmental stasis, Rod Modell paints musical textures that are apparently abstract and contemplative, but in reality charged with pathos and drama, taking advantage of a spectacul…
Music In DNA
"When you notice the cheerful mystery playing with the synths, the edges of this small world start to look slightly distorted. In any era, someone is always creating mysterious music on their own." - 7FO
A sad song for A.
«The project “a sad song for A.” was born from an insight Stefano Gentile had, driven by his moods and, in particular, a regret he had experienced in the past. It all began almost by chance, one evening, during an informal conversation. Stefano suggested that I narrate what I was experiencing most intensely at that moment: anxiety. After thoroughly analyzing this emotional state, he asked me to translate it into words, to write texts that could give voice to the emotions surrounding it. From the…
Implodendo in una accecante oscurità Pt.1 + Pt. 2
*200 copies limited edition* Italian ambient pioneer Gigi Masin returns with his captivating new album, Implodendo in una accecante oscurità. The title, which translates to "Imploding in a Blinding Darkness", hints at the immersive sonic journey within—a delicate balance between light and shadow, stillness and movement. This record showcases Masin’s signature blend of ethereal melodies and textures, weaving intricate soundscapes that echo the vastness of inner emotional landscapes. With subtle s…
Particles, Peds & Pores
*200 copies limited edition* "Jaime Fennelly, as Mind Over Mirrors, makes music that pushes the known to the lip of the unknown, where it rocks precariously and in exhilaration. He scrambles the familiar and tweaks the comfortable, not through aggression, but a throbbing estrangement. When placed at a distance, these require longer reaches to grasp. The reward for this effort is an enlarged field of perspective, experience, and also of feeling. This is deeply feeling music to feel deeply.

Vistas Fijas
