‘Gaia: Selected Ambient & Downtempo Works (1996-2003)’ is a new in-depth compilation of works by Japanese musician Dream Dolphin.
Eye Cube
I:Cube has made a new album. It is a very “hands on” album, as the eight tracks on show were created almost entirely by improvising with electronic hardware – synthesizers, sequencers, drum machines and effects units – and recorded in real time, with very little after-editing. It is also his first album in a decade, should you be keeping track. During the time he spent recording it, which was in part inspired by the processes behind his ‘Cubo Live Sessions’ series, I:Cube had fun, experimented, …
Lilies
Arovane's acclaimed 2004 album »Lilies« has been out of print on vinyl for nearly 2 decades now. It finally gets a well-deserved reissue through the Berlin based Keplar label. The new version has been remastered by Kassian Troyer at Dubplates & Mastering and comes with a brand new cover artwork.

Colours Of Air
The union of composers Lawrence English and loscil aka Scott Morgan is seamless, sublime, and long overdue. Born of a conversation centered on the notion of “rich sources” as a forge for electronic music, Colours Of Air is a collection of recordings of a century old pipe organ housed at the historic Old Museum in Brisbane, Australia, which were then processed, transformed, and elevated into eight majestic electro-acoustic threshold devotionals. The timbre of the instrument and spatial fluctuatio…
Alice The Goon
Limited edition of 500 copies, no repress.

Minus 30°C
The music of Zima Stulecia is difficult to label in terms of genre. It oscillates towards melancholic electronic music. For some it will be techno, others will hear elements of house, all accompanied by improvised synth and percussion music.
The Painter's Family
*300 copies limited edition* Recorded 2008-2016 and originally released on cassette in 2018. The Painter’s Family is the first duo release from Andrew Chalk and Francis Plagne, recorded intermittently, both together and apart, over eight years, in Hull, Melbourne and various places in Japan.

Dreams
*300 copies limited edition* Dreams, subtitled Scenes I-XV, captures imaginary scenes and sequenced into a full album of 52 minutes length at Impression Lointaine. Dreams being archaic and unpredictable in its composition, such as dreams themselves that make little sense upon waking and assembled using time limited constraints. And while immersed, and in privacy, form a thread of personal communication like a nostalgic memory-a painting of which we inhabit ourselves.

Contagion Vapors
Tip! “Contagion Vapors” was recorded between May 2020 and March 2021, in tandem with “Transgressive Transmissions”. Both albums have been released by Castles in Space, however they feature completely different sonic energies. Caught up in the first wave of pandemic doom/gloom which resulted in a bizarre creative bloom for Patrick, both albums have unique sounds anchored in the immense Patrick R Pärk/Kösmonaut discographies. This one is definitely a Kösmonaut record, however. Patrick’s ”Contagion…
Vision Songs - Vol. I
Vision Songs Vol. 1 is the Laraaji album like no other, located at the intersection of new age and gospel, his outlier and magnum opus, the feel-good DIY tape of the century. Casio synth jams recorded at spiritual retreat guest rooms and a tiny bedroom on the Upper West Side in 1984, lysergically-spectacular anthems for a continually arriving new moment. “Channeled from the sky,” humbly offered on vinyl for the first time, this is where this is going on, this is where this is taking place, this …
Discourses Of The Withered
3LP edition. Remastered A classic within the vast Celer catalogue - one of their finest. Originally issued by the Infraction label in 2008, 'Discourses of the Withered' sees the light of day once more via Will Long's own Two Acorns label, complete with a beautiful remaster from Stephan Mathieu. The album, like much of Celer's work, offers a refuge from the fast pace of modern life. The glacial ebb and flow, and swells of lush strings slows the heart rate and creates a place for introspection, pe…
Neoplatonic Aquatic Symposiums
** Edition of 300 copies, Deluxe 2LP includes a 12-page vinyl-sized zine ** In the flowing mode of olive tree groves, un-secluded temple vortices elaborated with Super-Receptacles reflect a floating “Supernatural Hall of Interaction”, and accompanied by this very scene, painted by a Daemonic being in a multiple of perspectives, there appears an assemblage of excellent genera including a hybrided-code statuette of Hermanubis. This temple vortex is a star on earth active for holographic dream clas…
Broken to Echoes
*100 copies limited edition* Across 8 concise vignettes, Chantal Michelle alchemizes acoustic instrumentation with a spectrum of layered feedback and field sounds, depicting fractured beauty amongst a precarious reality. Chantal’s work is characterized by intoxicating juxtaposition and enriched with an array of source material to construct immersive narrative. Much of the work here was recorded during her time in New York City, perhaps a pre-requisite to the heightened tension at play. Opening w…
