Morning And Evening Ragas Vol.3
*100 copies limited edition* Limited to 100 Numbered LPs housed in thick silk screened cardstock New dimensions of silence,solitude and isolation found us all in the spring of 2020. Herein lies a document of my own personal journey.
Recorded outside and alone
Untitled Tape / Untitled Work #1
300 copies 'Stunning, iridescent, nocturnal strums perfuse the durational sketches - highly immersive, beautiful gear that sounds something like Vincent Gallo and Iasos having a deep one.
Betraying their fine grasp of non-standard tunings, wandering feel for space, and aerosolised textures, these four extended, untitled pieces stem from a sort of communal feedback loop. Revolving Leon Brichard, Jesse Hackett and Jeff Wootton subsume a wealth of worldly musical coordinates into their sound, echo…
Since It Turned Out Something Else
This is the first long form solo artist release by Corker since 2013. Sounds collected and forgotten about to be then re found and used as seeds of new compositions. Neither acoustic composition nor electroacoustic but somewhere in between, the music was recorded in many different spaces from Japan to Berlin and France, often remotely, whilst finally put together in one room in London. Rooms and our current shifting relationship with them as well as using space as compositional material are some…
...It Wasn't Really Me
*In process of stocking* Following up 2021’s compilation 'and felt like...', ' ...it wasn't really me' can be seen as the missing part of a diptych, only separated by the passage of time, yet whole in spirit. Again, a familiar company of singular artists showcase remarkable unity in diversity. Similar to its predecessor, a rustic gloom glues everything together into a seamless whole, enabling the collective to transcend each unique contributors' musical voice elegantly.
Gravitational Pull vs. The Desire For An Aquatic Life
2022 Repress ***Received a 7.7 rating from Pitchfork. The release of Music For Nitrous Oxide, the 1995 debut by Stars Of The Lid, heralded a new strain of the American underground music scene, one born of the heat and humidity, boredom, and the insular, constipated, rock-ist music scene of Austin, Texas, home of the duo of Brian McBride and Adam Wiltzie. It was a muffled lashing out against surrounding musical conventions, a small middle finger to the local dominant “Americana” scene, but one th…
Noise For Halloween Night
Full length soundtrack of doom electronics to the sacred memory of halloween night.
Flying Fish Ambience
*Limited to 100 copies. Comes in in a hand painted, paraffin, sea shell package with the bonus tape single “Saga of Capsizing Dolphins".* The rainforest spiritual enslavement environs conceived by Dominick Fernow and Philippe Hallais complement ‘artificial spaces’ and ‘synthetic nature’ through the decay of ‘digital rain storms’ and ‘falling comet bass drops’ - 'Flying fish ambience' is the duo's first studio album together after a series of tours, and builds the RSE sound into a deep hypnotic s…
Jellyfish Reproduce Black Magic
‘Jellyfish reproduce black magic’ is the companion ep to the ‘Flying fish ambience’ album by RSE. The nature of a ‘permanent record’ whether digital or encrypted in the fossilized remains of evolutionary anthropomorphic species or ‘economic DNA’ left behind only further supersedes ‘artificial reality’ of environmental imprints. The alternative ‘occult economy’ is both reproducing and perpetuating a lethal life force. The essential premise of RSE remains ‘artificial spaces’ and ’synthetic nature’…
Annular Silhouettes
With Annular Silhouettes, Brad E. Rose traces an undulating pathway through ideas of place, memory, and intergenerational exchange. The edition is a mediation on how perspective is shaped, and reshaped, in time. More so it explores how change is simultaneously incremental and accumulative. This is reflected in the compositional strategies he deploys. Elements arrive and pass with an almost subconscious logic. Their pace is measured, but entirely fluid, creating a sense of breathing or perhaps ev…
Moths & Stars
"Coming from a background as a performer and clarinet player, the opportunity to record my own music opened up a whole new context to think about music. Sounds are freed from being confined to one place, one time, or even one perspective. I wanted the recording to have a right-up-in-your-ear kind of intimacy - so close, that you could hear the beating of a moth’s wing, but I also wanted the listener to experience the expansiveness of the recorded space, like the vast night sky. The microphones …
Equilibrium
Glacial Movements brings bvdub and Netherworld together for their first official collaboration... but more importantly, a testament to a friendship that has endured and grown for well over a decade - and the pinnacle of the GM catalogue to date. Quite simply, the "equilibrium" of a glacier is the point at which its mass of snow and ice that comprises its mass is forever in balance - neither advancing nor receding... the frozen and slightly less-so forever in balance. Cold depths below freeze all…
Descending Into Crevasse
*2022 stock. In process of stocking* This duo, placed near the Vesuvio (Naples), explored all the capabilities of analogic synths since the beginnings, developing an its own idea of sound. The undifferentiated manipulation of sounds extracted from modular and digital synths or objects/environment sound's recording, leads this original duo to a continuos research of a sonic identity. Retina.it's music has been released from labels such as Hefty records (Us) , Mousikelab (It), Flatmate/Storung ( S…
Alchemy of Ice
*2022 stock. In process of stocking* All the sound material was composed, mixed and created by Alessandro Tedeschi / Netherworld through countless layers and manipulations made with analog sampler Roland VP9000.
Dedicated to Oophoi.
Vanishing Lands
*200 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Immerse yourself in the great north, lost in the darkness of winter nights. There is a green glow that slowly dances above you, it is that of the Northern Lights, which lights the way. Around you, ice-covered volcanoes and endless white and silent expanses. Slowly all of this is fading, day after day, and unfortunately it is irreversible. "Vanishing Lands" is a cry of desperation, it is the realization that we are one step away from the abyss.…
El Borneo De Dios (Sinfonías Resgatadas en la Isla de Borneo)
*100 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Odd and fluid tape manipulations by Gonçalo F. Cardoso’s most bizarre moniker, Hannibal Chew III. Grabbing the deteriorated recordings left over from his 2017 trip to the island and letting his imagination and machines run free, the journey here is hectic: mud, rain, radio jingles, crickets, confusing conversations and random mall music resulting in an eternal looping impression from whatever was ingrained. A dream logic that doesn’t want to m…
First Collection
*In process of stocking* After almost two years of work, we're glad to invite you to a new journey through the fog of time and enjoy the upcoming reissue of the great Ambient/Folk record from 1984. A well-known to collectors but extremely rare record by Jon Iverson a multi-instrumentalist from Palo Alto and his college friend, mandolinist Tom Walters. They shared a love for singer/songwriter fare and gigged around campus playing covers of Neil Young, CSN, and Loggins/Messina in the late '70s. "F…
Equal Weights
*200 copies limited edition* "On Equal Weights, Dutch sound artists Frans de Waard and Martijn Comes are tightening the bond of their collaboration without ever actually responding to each other. This paradox was made possible by a remarkable creative process: First, de Waard created two empty containers – acoustic canvases of a predefined length – and added his own sonic brushstrokes to them. Then, he sent them to Comes, who finished the “paintings” by filling in the blanks. What could have tur…
All Above
On her third album, Berlin-based Dutch-Italian composer and sound designer Aimée Portioli, aka Grand River, asks what guiding forces might be driving, enticing, and affecting us. “All Above” is rooted in her deeply personal philosophy as an artist, blurring the boundaries between electronic music and acoustic music and sculpting familiar ambient forms into personal themes painted with rich emotional colours. Written painstakingly over the last two years, the album is the most ambitious and diver…
Prairie Spells, A Ribbon Wove
*50 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Originally released as a double cassette boxset in March 2021, reissued as a single cassette. A long distance, cross continental collaboration between Lightning White Bison (Adam Parks of Timber Rattle) and Drekka, recorded 2018 - 2020. "Prairie spells, a ribbon wove" is the outcome of a long-distance collaboration. The four 11-minute tracks are a sonic document of the exploration and reconciliation of geographic disparity, the distance betwee…
Pacific Walker
*50 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Pacific Walker finds the Odawas duo, Michael Tapscott and Isaac Edwards, once again weaving their mysteries into an esoteric tapestry of mycelial folk borne under cosmic whispers. Joining forces with percussionist and classical guitarist Raphi Gottesman, the trio embark on their first journey, an initiation stretching from the furthest outer reaches of Creation to the innermost Temple of the Eye Am. Channeling scorched church spaghetti westerns…
