Resignation I-II-III
*300 copies limited edition* Nordvargr’s Resignation project was initially born in 2008 exploring rhythmic and repetitive aspects of his musical output, merging elements of electronic music with dark ambient soundscapes. We present here the first 3 volumes of this venture in a deluxe 3LP boxset with poster as well as a 3CD 8 panels Digisleeve version, both with unique and exclusive material. From it’s inception delving into the more gaseous realms of dubby techno and evolving through the years t…
Obscured Focus
ISoD is the most recent arrival in the adventure in sound started by Gerritt Wittmer more than 20 years ago. In this dazing mixture of industrial and avant-garde - which anticipates and completes an imminent full length album - he drags all the previous syntax, technical and conceptual armory - as well as his heavy emotional tones - into a sonic result of shining modernism and implacable sharpness. Meant to be a tape only release.
Lambda
ZULI's widest-reaching and most ambitious album to date, 'Lambda' is a conspicuous left turn for the Berlin-based Egyptian producer. Draped in gauzy, granulated textures and woven with enigmatic vocal flourishes from collaborators MICHAELBRAILEY, Coby Sey and Abdullah Miniawy, it's a vivid, soul-searching set of polychromatic reflections that sets fire to the boundaries between ambient, trip-hop, industrial music, chamber pop and symphonic noise. In some aspects, 'Lambda' reveals ZULI's softer s…
Thrash
Nice Music Label presents ‘Trash’ - an incendiary new collaborative recording from indefinable, incomparable modern giant of electronic music Actress (Darren Cunningham) and NM’s own label head, capricious sound artist Simon J Karis. Actress and SJK stir up their intertwining trademark elements into a clandestine symmetrical arc over three tracks - each of them bestowing their own edit of ‘Thrash’, with Karis’ urgent acid thumper as a centerpiece. Both drastically remapping their razored hardwar…

*30 copies limited edition* Two pieces for modular synthesizer and a deviated nasal septum. Recorded and mastered by Velleity. Black 2-sided HQ lathe cuts in full-color printed sleeves with inner sleeves.
The Altar
*100 copies limited edition* As a continuation of her ethnographic sound archeology, decoding and recoding ancestral forms of rhythm and melody, The Altar EP emerges as an invisible sonic architecture, a temporary temple... Here sound emerges as consciousness, an entity influencing and changing its environments through emotional arousal.
The Altar is a sacred dance between knowledge and secrecy, one of intonation, evocation, gestural and accented imagination. Using the ancestral mind as a concep…
Pounding
Unequal cycles searching for synchronous experiences: On his new album »Pounding«, Frank Bretschneider tells of distance, convergence and congruence in a continuous, ever-changing flow of events. What is often considered to be an unquestionable dogma in club music (for which Bretschneider has provided significant impetus since the 1990s) – the groove – appears precarious, unstable, and in motion. Pulse and accent are volatile encounters and have to be found again and again for short, delightful …
Rbia Harsha Cinta
*100 copies limited edition* Rbia Harsha Cinta is a dark and experimental reworking of Aubry's recent film on seaweed and pollution in Morocco (Atlantic Ragagar 2022). The film's dreadful atmosphere of environmental devastation is transposed into a haunting soundscape of analog textures and naked rhythms. With its title referring to endangered seaweed species, Rbia Harsha Cinta comprises eight tracks that pulse and breathe with a post-natural intensity.
YRLNG is a new project by Gilles Aubry ded…

Macrocorpse – 2021-2024
Microcorps, Alexander Tucker's mutant techno alter ego, presents "Macrocorpse – 2021-2024", an 8-track collection of tracks that stray into a mutated space where techno-based composition inhabits the same space as microsound time scales, drone and noise. Regular Tapeworm collaborator Savage Pencil lends his warped graphic visions to the cover artwork.
"I'd always admired The Tapeworm from afar and over the years The Tapeworm and I would often bump into one another at gigs and enthuse about Derek…
Noise and Cries
As part of Subtext's 20th anniversary, Subtext presents the debut album from bela as a co-release with Unsound.
Standing Abs
"Terrine/sound is a salutary balancing act-convincing to destabilise prevalent control systems ;- a proto -resistance assembly/and (meta ) language. Organic /electronique in the guise of “techno£”? Who for !?=the tech adventurous surely as much as for those declaring a tech-no-phobia /immunity/,the tech-sceptics ((for those who desire such antiquities ?as mood ,feelings ,words!!?,worlds !!,provocations !!!, As the agnostics will vouch techno often wont or cant supply these within the functions o…
Cold Memories
*2024 stock* "Was it yesterday or tomorrow?"
That release is a tape that Atom Heart did for the first edition of the Ambient City radio at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Helsinki 1994.
Supercalideepstate
*200 copies limited edition* Supercalideepstate encapsulates the transformative power of music born from deep introspection and a heightened state of consciousness. Composed over the course of may and june 2022 in the heart of an Iraq base camp. These four tracks emerged as a result of intense meditation sessions, fueled by inspiration and a profound connection to inner peace. The creative process was marked by an unshakable sense of flow, as if the music itself were a channel for the artist's h…
東方不敗
"Since he emerged in 2014, Tzusing's style of techno, tough and tactile, has differed from the grungy lo-fi with which L.I.E.S. is associated. Though the Malaysian-Chinese producer's music is loud and authoritative, he eschews the noise that defines some of his labelmates' music. On his first album, 東方不敗—named after a character, Dongfang Bubai, in a Jin Yong novel—industrial and EBM is the name of the game. Incorporating ideas from a vast array of artists across those genres, Tzusing's debut alb…
Melting The Earth Onto The Body Without Organs
*2023 stock* "The new Sagat is truly emotional: the drums are neat and the sounds are warm. Tight groovy rhythms travelling within layers of the deepest dark dub without sounding evident or tried. Familiar but new. Precise funk made of techno frequencies. Reverb and delays that bring butter to your ears: melting the earth onto your body. "Melt" is a body: it has a rhythmic pattern and synths that pop up like a breathing living organism. "Earth" is the landscape: you can visualize it. "Organs" is…
