You Only Live Ice
*2022 stock* A moody, detailed and wide-ranging work, in which atmosphere and dramaturgy lead the ear into a suspended world, like being entrapped within an Arctic ice shelf... Philippe Petit is interested in soundtracks; even if he creates original music he'd rather be introduced as a "musical travel agent" than a composer. Since the early 2000s he has been performing the world, playing festivals all over Europe, Canada, USA, Mexico, South America, Australia & Asia... Feeling lucky to release o…
Aneira
Aidan Baker is a multi-instrumentalist, classically-trained in flute, but best known as a guitarist. Using various electronic effects combined with prepared and/or alternate methods of playing the guitar, he creates music which generally falls within the ambient/experimental genres but draws on influences from shoegaze and post-rock, contemporary classical and jazz. Over the course of the last decade, Baker has released numerous recorded works, both solo and with his duo Nadja, plus various othe…

Poised at the Edge of Structure
Ana Fosca has emerged as presence to be reckoned with. Here stands a woman raging, wrestling, communing, and plainly preoccupied with the humanity's propensity for tragedy, violence, and blight. And it is with a particular strain of noise - one that is dour, miserable, frightening - through which she harnesses these conditions. While her catalogue of recordings is brief, Ana Fosca (born Linn Hvid) honed her craft by performing on a constant basis throughout Denmark, Sweden and Germany, especiall…
Percussion-Resonance

HDK team is very proud to introduce you this little gem, a condensation of …
A smashing adventure
Welcome to an enchanted land where everything is strange and mysterious. The songs on this cassette are ancient incantations that make us travel back in time to our childhood, when music was a daydream and everyday life a strange adventure. There's something arcane and primal in the tinkling of notes here: in the lo-fi ohms of tracks like "Holy Smoke" and "Field," in the twilight pace of "Bell Tower" or in the epic broomstick space ride of "A castle at the heart of an asteroid field."
The music …
Utflykter I Den Svenska Skogen
*Edition of 100 copies* The eight bucolic tracks on this album entitled "Excursions in the Swedish forest" were composed by an anonymous musician in an unspecified year, probably for a promotional documentary from the Swedish Ministry of Tourism.

Sonne = Blackbox
*2022 repress* Three years have passed since the world first learned of Ursula Bogner's work. Since then, her identity has been surrounded by rumours, her graphic work have been exhibited (CEACC, Strasbourg, France, 2011 and elsewhere) and her compositional instructions have been performed (by Mo Loschelder, Andrew Pekler, Kassian Troyer, Holger Zapf, Jan Jelinek among others). The release of Sonne = Blackbox brings together all of these aspects and attempts to locate Ursula Bogner, the sound ex…

Nostalgia Por Mesozóica
Tip! **50 copies** Nikolaienko's “Nostalgia Por Mesozóica” is an exploration of "experimental exotica" consisted of synthesized tropical attributes — an artificial landscape isolated behind the glass frame. Reminiscent of recording techniques and sonorities ubiquitous in the 60’s and 70’s, it could conceivably have been intended as a soundtrack for the Mesozoic Era exhibition at your favorite Natural History museum.
The Origins Of ...
**Limited Edition of 199 copies.** Akifumi Nakajima was probably best known for his work under the name Aube, which was one of the more prolific and most interesting noise acts from Japan. He had an impeccable and marvelous sense of design and appreciation for the materials, taking packaging beyond just using regular old paper with his wonderful and unique label G.R.O.S.S., dedicated to releasing experimental music and noise, in addition to his own recordings as Aube. Hiroshi Hasegawa formed the…
Deformation Of Tone
Joe Colley’s skeleton key is an intra-dimensional sense of humor. It exists in a place between and beyond dry, deadpan, and defeatist, and is not actually funny. He has a knack for unlocking the essence of the absurdly uncomplicated, elevating it to a place of near-iconic significance and leaving it there. Hovering in a void. Or mashed in the jowl of an insect getting doused with regurgitated chyme and rumen bacteria. Consistent with his past efforts, Deformation Of Tone contains no sturm und dr…
Musick To Play In The Dark²
After leaving London in 1999 for the sleepy seaside retiree town of Weston-super-Mare, Coil co-founders John Balance and Peter “Sleazy” Christopherson set up shop in a palatial eight-bedroom estate to pursue the outer reaches of the group’s heightening cabalistic chemistry. Among the staggering string of late-era masterpieces they produced is lunar opus Musick To Play In The Dark, widely hailed as an artistic zenith upon its release. The sessions that birthed it were in fact so fruitful that a s…

Bakterien & Batterien
*2022 stock* In autumn 2013, Hamburg's formaldehyd electronaut Felix Kubin and the ominous ninepiece Warsaw orchestra Mitch & Mitch joined forces to produce an avant-pop-backwards-jazz-library-record. Inspired by the work of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, Polish and Czech film soundtracks, easy listening, musique concrète and various other bizarre style icons, they invited German producer legend Tobias Levin to be their electric conduit. With their faces turned to the dark side of the moon and th…
