In Blue
When "In Blue" was released in 1995, many fans thought that this was the most typical Klaus Schulze record for a long time. They were probably right because Klaus did the songs a little bit with the fans in mind for whom the sounds of the previous album were too modern. In this respect "In Blue" is a more traditional Schulze record and, also, because it featured Manuel Goettsching on "Return Of The Tempel". However, he didn't plan this. Somehow it came to his mind to ask Manuel if he won"t feel …

Hope Is The Sister Of Despair
2024 repress. In 2013, Niko Tzoumanis released ‘Hope Is The Sister Of Despair’ on limited CD, issued here on vinyl (2xLP) with 4 previously unreleased tracks. The album was made following the end of a relationship and taps into a rich vein of sequencer romanticism, from Tangerine Dream-obsessed-‘Berlin School’ daydreamers to the whole nebula of music inspired by Warp’s Artificial Intelligence series.
It also looks forward, prefiguring the return today, in troubled times, to the comforting inner…

Dust At Night
*200 copies limited edition CD in 6-panel digisleeve* Fabio Orsi is that imaginative weaver of atmospheres for great horizons that each time takes the mind and intellect far away. The new "Dust at Night", a 3-stage journey into the aural interspaces of the most immersive and alienating mantric-minimalist diction, is no exception. It is impossible to homologate the Italian composer's musical figure except perhaps to connect it by emotional induction to the astral radiations of Brian Eno in his am…

Tip! *300 copies limited edition* Stephen James Buckley aka Polypores returns for his second full album on the DiN imprint following on from his 2022 debut “Hyperincandescent” (DiN71).
Though we’ve come to know a wide range of sounds from Polypores, it’s here on “Multizonal Mindscramble” that we get plunged into the outer reaches of the inner psyche. Flickering insectoid transmissions are laid atop slowly shifting walls of drifting oscillators, barely discernible chirps and static-encrusted filt…
