Cluster 71
The abrasive, epochal debut. Moebius and Roedelius push organ, guitar and homemade electronics through banks of effects into three untitled slabs of proto-ambient drift. Year zero for German electronic music, still startling fifty years on.
Apropos Cluster
Moebius and Roedelius reconvene decades on, and the old telepathy holds. 'Apropos Cluster' drifts through supple electronic sketches, playful, warm and abstract at once, proof the duo's improvised chemistry never dimmed.
After The Heat
The second Eno, Moebius and Roedelius summit. Brian Eno joins the Cluster duo for luminous ambient sketches and vocal pieces of eerie beauty, a keystone where British art-pop meets German kosmische, from the classic Sky Records era.
Sternzeit
Von Deyen's debut, an interstellar synthesizer suite of vast pads and slow sequencer pulse. Sternzeit (star time) is pure late-'70s German cosmic music, equal parts Tangerine Dream grandeur and lonely, meditative space.
Nordborg
More deep-space synthesis from the reclusive cosmic voyager. Nordborg unfolds in patient, glacial layers of Moog and Mellotron: Berlin-school drift at its most oceanic and serene. A cult private-press artefact returned to CD.
Atmosphere
Vast, weightless synthesizer vistas from the German cosmic underground. Von Deyen layers Moog and Mellotron into slow-drifting cloudscapes, poised between Berlin-school sequencing and pure ambience. A private-press reverie, on CD for the first time.
Nachtfahrt
*150 copies limited edition* Here CON presents an uneasy experimental piece exploring obscure liquid sonic realms and their contents. Schnitzler continues to take the familiar and transform it into something unrecognizably warped. Nachtfahrt is a deeply hypnotic album. CON guides this grim tale through numerous moods, CONveying a transition from dreamy weightlessness to noir tension.
LichtPunkte
*150 copies limited edition* LichtPunkte is a dense work, enhanced by inventive arrangements and powerful narrative ideas so abundant that the album could serve as a launchpad for several more works. There are spaces filled with melodies that float and hover, and there are layers that are intricate and full of forward movement. CON's drive and focused creative energy make this work an outstanding example of the 'Berlin Kosmische Schule'.
SLG3
On SLG3, Juan Manuel Cidrón returns to vinyl with four long-form electronic landscapes shaped by analogue circuitry, minimal pulse and cosmic drift. The Almería synthesist turns S, L, G and 3 into open territories - desert-wide, elemental and quietly visionary - where natural rhythm and machine logic meet in a patient, dream-lit dialogue.
Longshore Drifting
Lone Bison / Nick Bonell lives by the sea in Ramsgate. Mainly a guitar player and pedal freak, Nick bought a used Korg MS20 and fell in love with synths. As one half of Stuntmen, Nick released the sample-heavy single 'You're the Beat Find' on the groovy Tummy Touch label, which led to him scoring three Ford adverts in the U.S and a few pieces of well-used production music - which paid for more synths and pedals! An album, 'Transistor Memory' and single 'Drugs' came out via Dom Martin's Polytechn…
Teleportations
Tip. Teleportations is the debut solo album by Dan Leavers (Danalogue), known for The Comet Is Coming and Soccer96. Conceived and performed entirely by him as a continuous, journey-like piece, the album transforms personal loss and upheaval into a warm, playful science-fiction voyage that moves through celestial ambience, kosmische shimmer, space disco, liquid jazz-funk and deep Detroit house. Sequenced as a single trip rather than separate songs, it invites listeners to join a self-styled “tele…

People & Industry Special Edition
Castles in Space are thrilled to present this deluxe special edition of the second Warrington Runcorn New Town Development Plan album, "People & Industry". Originally released in September 2021, this is a beautiful new edition featuring four bonus tracks on a second 12"disc which have never been released on vinyl before.
“It’s been amazing to revisit this album”, says Gordon Chapman-Fox. “It’s one that people didn't get chance to hear, and it was overlooked following the success of the debut alb…
Windmills
*150 copies limited edition* On the website fancymoon.com, CON himself describes 'Windmills' as Electro Cosmic Metal Industrial. It comprises 33 tracks and represents a continuous body of electronic music. The album was recorded and performed in the same vein as 'III Kugeln', serving as its predecessor, and is made up of four “solo electric pieces”: Sack, Turbine, Raumknoten, and Fenster. As FdW noted in his review of 'III Kugeln', this is not ambient, not dance music, not musique concrète, not …
Upwards
*150 copies limited edition* The music on 'Upwards' is constantly surprising and as always, it's expansive and incredibly captivating. The work comprises 19 "electric miniature" compositions, and one could say they all lead nowhere – and this is true, because CON has always valued the journey itself rather than the destination. It is intensely rich and beautifully remastered by Guillermo Pizarro at Vitória Régia Studios.
Till Human Voices Wake Us
*150 copies limited edition* Originally released in 2014 on cassette and digital only, Till Human Voices Wake Us was the first album by the Iranian artist on Umor Rex. It became a key work in our catalog, and now, 12 years later, it is available on vinyl for the first time. This is the first in a series of four special, limited reissues to be released in 2026 to mark the 20th anniversary of Umor Rex.
Till Human Voices Wake Us comprises ten tracks with a clear and carefully structured script, bas…
Primal Forms
*300 copies limited edition* After their last album six years ago, "Primal Forms," the new album by Phantom Horse, finally arrives. The German duo of Ulf Schütte and Niklas Dommaschk have long established a reputation for expertly crafted, hypnotically slow-burning electronic music, and we do not hesitate to say that "Primal Forms" stands among the epitomes of their discography. The sequencing of "Primal Forms" cannot be underestimated. It is an album in the classic sense. It demands to be liste…
Web Of Midnight
*100 copies limited edition* Corum’s Web of Midnight traces an astral cartography and psychic linkage between the psychosexual laboratories of Wilhelm Reich’s Orgonon in Rangely, Maine all the way to the Mount Teide Volcano on the Canary Islands. Different facets of the album were recorded in these charged locations causing the music to erupt with an orgasmic and volcanic force, a subconscious blast and discharge of etheric earth energy channeled through shimmering electronica. Babbling voices t…
