2019 release ** "A sort of anthology that collects material recorded between 2006 and 2014. The album is titled, programmatically, The Bunker Years (2006-2014) and represents a bit of a "summa" of his art. Musically the album is wonderful: the settings are dense, magmatic and claustrophobic. It is a liquid, wavy and minimal sound that moves in electroacoustic and electronic territories. The initial “The Rule Of The Shadows” with its rumblings creates a bizarre and difficult to decipher acoustic…
Tip! Montréal based artist and maker of concrète electronic tape music, Jeremy Young will release Cablcar, an experimental suite of electronic sketches for magnetic tape and analog oscillators, on Toronto’s boundary pushing label, Halocline Trance. A member of poetry_sound duo Cloud Circuit, electroacoustic modern classical trio Sontag Shogun, and library music waveriders Associated Sine Tone Services, Young’s long-evolving solo practice makes use of a sine and square wave oscillator system, 1/4…
*200 copies limited edition* After several solo-releases on the label, we welcome back Taylor Deupree and The Humble Bee for their first collaborative album to date. Re: Case Studies is out on May 2nd and available on vinyl and digitally.
While most collaborative albums are intentional from the start, this one almost never came to fruition and was born rather out of a fortunate coincidence. A few years ago, Taylor Deupree created a series of compositions entirely based on feedback loops, which n…
EXTNDDNTWRK is the enduring solo project of Andrew Fearn, who is more commonly recognised as one half of Sleaford Mods. While akin to his role in his main group with respect to primarily working with electronic sounds, samples and rhythms, EXTNDDNTWRK is a far more mannered affair whose approach is concerned with atmospherics, occasional tempered beats perfect for a late night drive along a deserted motorway, near-ambient swerves into neo-minimalism, crisp melodies and big grooves swollen with t…
2025 stock In August 1972 King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp was producing some material for Robert Wyatt. Brian Eno - then a member of Roxy Music, came to the studio to add synth to the same sessions. Fripp and Eno found common cause. The 21 minutes piece of music that resulted, 'The Heavenly Music Corporation' became one of the most significant and influential pieces of electronic music ever recorded. The other track on the album 'Swastika Girls' was not recorded until over a year later in au…
For the first time on vinyl a collection of tracks by Cortex, Alain Neffe (Bene Gesserit, Insane Music) experimental spoken-word project originally released on tape in 1984. Cortex was never intended to be a conventional musical project. From the very beginning it was centered around free live performances. These encounters were stripped down and highly visual: Alain Neffe constructed a trapezoidal fluorescent white screen lit by black light. The narrator—la récitante—was only illuminated in the…
"This album has been a long time coming. We were lucky enough to do a tape in 2022 with Jeremy Hurewitz (aka Rootless) called what the truth leaves out. But this is the first time we’ve been able to work with long-time fave, Matt Lajoie, who appears with Ash Brooks as half of the no-longer-active duo, Starbirthed. The idea for this pairing was presented to us by Jeremy, who recorded the album at his cabin in southern Vermont in 2019. Jeremy’s Rootless project generally features at least a soupço…
*300 copies limited edition* "What a pleasure it is to hear this new album from France’s Jean-Baptiste Favory, long-distance associate of Los Lichis, presenter of France’s longest running avant garde radio show (Epsilonia), and a goddamn great musician. I Was Thinking is the solo third album we’ve done with J-B (preceded by Things Under and Ciels), and we think it’s the most varied and fascinating one yet. Using guitars, keyboards and electronics, Favory explores the edges between avant-rock, ex…
2011 release ** "Last effort of 2011 for Gianluca Becuzzi this Nothing Is What It Seems, which is published at the end of the year by Silentes with a splendid graphic based on photos by Stefano Gentile and artwork by Andrea Marutti; Claudio Rocchetti completes the team of collaborators contributing with “sound objects” in a couple of tracks. All the rest (composition, production and mastering) is by Becuzzi. Nothing is as it seems tells us the title, and leads us to think that the sounds we hea…
2011 release ** "Gianluca Becuzzi is an italian electronic / electroacoustic composer and sound artist active since the first half of the 80’s. He released many albums and performed live around Europe during the last three decades under various names. Since 1999, his artistic production is characterised by a strong experimental imprint and by a clear aesthetic inclination towards abstract forms and micro / macro noises / sounds. He deals with electronic / electroacoustic composition, sound art,…
1996 release ** "Rust Voor de Stilte" means "Quiet before the silence" and is inspired by fading memories and unattainable desires. "Rust Voor de Stilte" is music from the soul that speaks to the heart. Bittersweet strains reminiscent of music box melodies combined with elegant rhythms are just some of the elements that set this work apart from other contemporary ambient releases. Emmanuel Tuts-Schiemsky’s cool mixture of beauty and melancholic grace is a journey through experimental sounds.."
2008 release ** "The minimalism that Andrea Sartori had proposed to us some time ago, rich in live sound objects, field recordings in tune with ambient, returns deprived of the connection with the dancefloor in this beautiful album by Mou, lips!, a sonic creation by Andrea Gabriele. The proposal inevitably hooks up with the sandy drifts of Boards of Canada in the very hot incipit Non è colpa mia! to then move on to a meditative journey made of acoustic guitars (for INstruments), trumpets and cla…
2006 release ** "Debut of young czech project Anhedonia/ destructive forces, which is comming with technological soundtracks full of industrial bandages, supernatural athmospheres, which are over laping with hybrid rytmical structures and beautiful electronic. Unreally developed and inteligent item. Music that enchant and don't let breathe out.Project that is echo of sound of bands as Gridlock, Flint Glass, Polygon. Technologic revolution in the world of pulsating generators and noncomercional b…
2019 release ** "Ten years after their first collaboration (“Into”, Silentes, 2009) KK Null and Deison are back together with “Yugen”*, a new work exploring darkness and controlled chaos thru deep and dense sounds. Pulsating and fractured electronics are mixed with an eerie atmosphere of clunks, broken tribal drums and hovering electronic tones."
2011 release ** "Extreme and uncompromising electronic stimulations, vibrations and synthetic pulsations floating off, disturbing buzzes and algorithmic waves in expansion, fragmented and deconstructed Synthetic Chaos... But also hints of hypnotic unfinished musical sketches, clips of embryonic melodic sequences, fragments of human voices, oscillating electronic pads, distorsions, improbable synthetic clones of nature sounds and noises... An intransigent work of disturbing and destabilizing elec…
2011 release ** "Frail and delicate ambient atmospheres, clusters of rarefied piano notes lying on discreet drones, soft and evanescent clarinet riffs, suggesting and catching natural sounds... Light and ethereal pastel-coloured musical plots... Eight tracks, one hour of suspended and quiet sonic passages, flowing like discreet background, or to listen/see in a passionate mood, dreaming in silence, lying in gloom... Wonderful ambient stuff from these two Russian artists in the same vein of some …
2009 release ** "Penetrating “Hi-tech” music, always on the border between sound,silence and noise… Splinters of sonic fragments, buzzings, electronic hisses, pulsations, hypnotic loops, ambient textures, sudden rays of light… A kaleidoscope of syntethic sounds and digital glitches, in a universe dominated by binary codes, that evolves through the cold-hearted control of sophisticated algorhythmic mutations programmed by human entities that already reached a level beyond the borders of our earth…
2002 release ** “Lambent is one Akira Inagawa from Japan, currentely in Berlin. Akira started to play music while in art college in London, meeting the people from ‘Insine’ label and after moving to Berlin playing electronic music and being a hip-hop DJ. As Lambent he doesn’t use any computers, just samplers and synthesizers in a live approach. This is quite important to realize when you listen to this music, because once you know this, the music makes much more sense.”
1996 release ** Limited edition of 550 hand numbered copies. All tracks [except 1] were originally released on tape by Midas Tapes between 1987 & 1991. "Band known also for reissue on Industrial Recollections. Great old noise from Holland! Must have for fans of 80's pe/industrial noise!"
