Sounds On Grief
"Sounds On Grief is a multidisciplinary project that offers a fresh lens on the processes and reflections of grief. The idea for the project came out of being thrown into my own depths of grief with the unexpected passing of my mom in September 2023. I felt a seismic shift demarcating life before and after her passing, searching for words, music, and art that felt relatable and made me feel a little less alone in grappling with this new life. I was curious to hear how others processed grief, and…

Cinematic & enigmatic, 'Ambientale' is a stranger you've only…

......t
Sonically, the Swedish duo SHXCXCHCXSH distort the club context they work from by rendering functionality with an exceptionally refined and idiosyncratic palette. As logophiles, they contort the little descriptive context they afford audiences by imploding language into splintered and barely comprehensible character sequences. The impression is that each is the result of mutual process-driven experiments. This is all true of '......t', their new album and debut recording for Northern Electronics…
Hometown Girl
Groggy, engrossing new work from Ulla under their newly minted U.e. tag, riffing to the sublime on a set of (mostly) acoustic reveries that tap into the kind of smokey vapours favoured by the likes of Vincent Gallo, Voice Actor, Jonnine. Oh aye, it’s a special one.
Weft
Blue Lake’s new offering ‘Weft’ sees its creator Jason Dungan unearth new musical terrain with a mini-album which presents the projects evolution. Finding inspiration in the craft of weaving and embracing a collective spirit as a band leader, all while readying a new studio album expected later in 2025. The earthy title track ‘Weft’ emerges with a sense of ease and familiarity as looping guitar riffs in open tunings bed in around a warm cello pulse that provides the essential heartbeat. These in…

Originally created in 2013 for live performances at the Festival La Bâtie in Switzerland, Maps combines music and visuals to create an immersive experience, inspired by Borges' reflection on the limits of representation. Maps challenges the boundaries between art and reality, inviting you to explore a world where music and visuals converge in an expansive, surreal landscape. Dutch artist Space Is Gre…
Tarzanland
WRWTFWW Records presents its third collaboration with Japanese electronic/ambient/synth-pop crew Interior, this time with the release of band member Daisuke Hinata’s forgotten solo treasure from 1989: Tarzanland. The feel-good/smooth ride LP is available as a limited-edition turquoise and light pink vinyl housed in a heavyweight 350gsm sleeve with obi strip.

Medicine Compilation From The Quiet Lodge
Double LP edition. A classic from Haruomi Hosono’s late ’80s and ’90s abstract electronica period, Medicine Compilation From The Quiet Lodge is a sublimely inviting ambient album with touches of acid house, downtempo pop, and ethereal trip-hop. Standout “Laughter Meditation” opens up the album with gorgeous zither and kalimba from Laraaji, a peaceful 4-to-the-floor beat, and spoken word. Medicine Compilation from the Quiet Lodge features ultimate ambient music that invites listeners to another w…
The Tale Of Genji
Another favorite from the Haromi Hosono canon. This was the score for the first animated adaptation of The Tale of Genji, a sprawling piece of 11th century literature written by noblewoman Shikibu Murasaki, considered by many to be the first modern novel in recorded history. (Isao Tomita later write his own symphonic adaptation of the story.) The anime was directed by Gisaburō Sugii, and while it only covers a small part of the epic storyline, the score is highly ambitious.
Unlike much of Hosono…
Dwell Time II
"Dwell Time II, the second installment in a trilogy of tape loop experiments from T.R. Jordan, begins fittingly with “Dynamics”, as a grainy, fluttering howl opens into voluminous spatial tones, while dulcet synthesizers swell between the stereo channels with melancholy, crystalline sweetness. Guiding his delicate world of sound through various technical and tactile manipulations, Jordan unearths sounds and textures that are otherwise not found in a natural state. Part of the fascination in work…
Selected Ambient Works 85-92
*2025 stock* Richard D James' classic album from 1992, re-pressed countless times but still sounding as vital as it did way back when. Still probably the most uplifting and nostalgic thing in the AFX catalogue...Best electronic music album of the late 20th century. A proper gateway drug to the myriad microcosms of Richard D. James a.k.a. Aphex Twin. 100% essential in any collection. Selected Ambient Works 85-92 is a desperately sparse album: thin percussion and several haunted-synth lines are th…
L'Oeuvre Electronique
2025 Small Repress. Incredible 14xCD lavish box set, a 16+ hour compendium of the electronic music key works from one of the most important electronic composers of the 20th century complete with a 106 page book. Born between wars, Eliane Radigue’s musical journey began in the Paris studios of musique concrète OGs Pierre Schaeffer and Pierre Henry during the 1950s and 60s, experimenting with magnetic tapes, honing her craft in sound construction. But it wasn’t until the 1970s when Eliane moved to…
Pruning
On his Discrepant debut Memotone aka Bristolian Will Yates collects some unreleased recordings under a most aptly titled name - »Pruning« - following a healthy stream of releases for such esteemed labels as Black Acre, The Trilogy Tapes or Soda Gong. Considering the process of pruning as a practice of selective removal, the album takes its name at face value never falling into a mere collection of tossed off material or random B-side assemblage, making it a cohesive listen throughout its dispara…
