Reels 1977-1986
The endlessly engaging Italian imprints, Soave and Orbeatize, deliver what is unquestionably one of the most important and ambitious archival releases of 2024: “Reels 1977-1986”, an astounding 14 CD box set dedicated to the neglected, visionary Swiss electroacousitic composer Ernst Thoma. Presenting a radically singular approach to experimental electronic music - highly rhythmical, ranging from poetically elegant and minimal to frenetic and mind-bending - across its astoundingly expansive durati…
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 …
Chrysalide
WRWTFWW Records is wonderfully proud to announce the long anticipated official reissue of Chrysalide (1978), the sole album from French multi-instrumentalist and enigmatic genius Michel Moulinié. The krautrock/ambient/minimalism paragon is available as a limited edition LP with one never-heard bonus track. It is sourced from the original reels and housed in a heavy 350gsm sleeve.

Cosmic Gem Pt. 2&3 / Les 3 Cœurs
Psychedelic split tape by Weird Dust and Bear Bones, Lay Low.
Heimito Künst
Synthesizers, field recordings, magnetic tapes together with percussion, various microphones and stringed instruments fill the listening of this musical elegy. In his debut album Heimito Künst takes us inside kaleidoscopic sound visions in which, between references to the darkest and most disturbing kraut sound and experimental sequence plans based on noise polyrhythms, he makes us glimpse wave structures that lead us directly to breathe the author's panic dust . The album was recorded live with…
Starlight
Tip!!! We already met Steven Grace with his crepuscular electronic soft-rock album entitled "Eleventh Hour" (HDK 119), now let's get to know him in his most traditionally “kosmische” guise called LOGIC GATE.
Wandering through the desolate lands of the net, under the label of "electronic music", we casually came across Steven's music thanks to the his Logic Gate albums. Our first reaction was: how is it possible that such sweet music is relegated to such a dark and invisible corner of the world w…
Fluvius
*250 copies limited edition* Fluvius is a conceptual album about water and its importance, in the form of rivers, in the birth and development of great civilizations throughout history. Civilizations that have worshiped water as a source of life to respect, care for, venerate, and fear. A work that probably surpasses everything that these two usual suspects of the label have previously produced - Hari Sima released "Fluido Tiempo" on Abstrakce and Mínim is a member of Mecánica Clásica -.

Waves
*300 copies limited edition* Mondkopf, the brainchild of Paul Regimbeau, returns to Hands in the Dark with ‘Waves’, five years after his label-debut ‘How Deep is our Love?’. The French producer’s 9th album features two time-stretched, profound analog-textured pieces based on the physical and emotional swaying motion suggested by its title and recorded during some concerts played in the summer of 2019. The first track was performed at a secret gig in the Vincennes woods in Paris, accompanying a g…
Eat Liquid
*2024 stock* This is simply a masterclass in atmosphere, sounds, guitar and occasional vocals. Not an update on Velvet Underground, more like what an interstellar voyage with a VU soundtrack might sound like if it took place in 2023. And so it begins: Anika eats liquid stardust during her one-off performance at the Zeiss-Großplanetarium in Berlin. It is also a journey into your inner self and at the same time the logical progression of the best cosmic music ever created in Berlin. Think Ash Ra T…

Tip! *80 copies limited edition* Jacopo Buda is a trumpet player, composer and sound-artist, born in Rimini (IT). His research investigates the infinite possibilities given by the encounter between trumpet and electronics in a live improvisational context. Standing at the crossroads between glitchy noir-tinged jazz, kosmische music and and fourth-world psychedelia, "Emerald Vision" offers a plethora of slowly unfolding and gently shifting emotions: unbounded joy and luminous ecstasy weaved with …

Does It Look Like I'm Here?
Cleveland neo-kosmische outfit Emeralds broke free of the underground in 2010 with the hallucinatory Editions Mego-released 'Does it Look Like I'm Here?', now been remastered and bumped up with seven additional tracks, including two Daphne remixes.
Lumarian
Tom Mcdowell’s Dream Division returns with 'Lumarain' an invitation to an electronic odyssey. The album's expansive synth soundscapes stretch out like vast, unexplored galaxies, inviting the audience to embark on a thrilling journey. McDowell's deft touch on the synthesiser’s manifests in otherworldly textures and pulsating rhythms, forging a unique sonic experience that captivates from start to finish with each track unfolding like a chapter of a lost dystopian science fiction novel. The fusion…
