Celestis
2025 stock ** ""Celestis" definitely stands out in the discography of this project, known mainly for its post-industrial and avant-garde recordings. It would be no exaggeration to say that this is their most accessible work (in a good sense) correlating with the best examples of such acclaimed masters of the "space genre" as Jean-Michel Jarre or Klaus Schulze. At the same time the music on "Celestis" is in no way secondary, it is modern and quite craftily made."
Disc Rot
Long and intermittent running duo of Discrepant head honcho Gonçalo F Cardoso and Angela Valid's Alex Jones, with sometime collaborator Phil Laney aka Kenny Hosepipe joining in somewhere along the way, Hair & Treasure crossover from Sucata Tapes to Discrepant wax via 'Disc Rot'. Described by the duo, in their cryptic and scatological fashion, as "a fetid spread from the buttery catacombs of Hair & Treasure", one can only speculate on the mindset, if not for the scenario, for these file swap reco…

This album is an emotional exploration of Andrea's past, touching on themes of loss and letting go, while also conveying hope and the enduring cycle of renewal found in nature …
The Pool
The Pool represents Apta's most focused and compelling release to date. Based on the transformative plunge of a psychedelic experience, it maps both tentative footsteps into the unknown and euphoric, melodic bliss. Recorded using a combination of modular synthesis, Arp Odyssey, bass, guitar, Elektron grooveboxes and (for the first time in Apta's recorded history) a hint of vocals. There are wisps of melody from the outset, woven through skittering modular synths and saturated bass guitar. But it…
Fourth
Trestle Records is pleased to announce the new record from Tout. The aptly named Fourth. Fourth ushers in a change of direction with core members Nick Downes and Jonathan Fryer composing the principle tracks as a duo in their London studio. Once these were established and recorded they both reached out with invitations to a host of collaborators, mostly friends, to complement and expand upon their foundational elements. Fourth finds Tout delving deeper into the bands interest in contemporary cla…

*300 copies limited edition* Hüma Utku returns to Editions Mego with her new album.
