A 70's odyssey of moog infused cosmic krautrock and psychedelic baroque on this debut record from 'The Psychic Circle'
Talk About It / Origin Story
The "Talk About It" / "Origin Story" EP features remixes from Concretism and Paul Cousins. It's a beautiful pressing which utilises Nick Taylor's CiS discobag design, last seen on CiS038/CiS039.

Atoms
When a story sees its own ending. Atoms shows the Hamburg grown friends and instrumentalists taking a steep descent into the unmarked. Crushed arpeggios, hand layered drums and the afterthought of a nightly piano allude to an early dawn still at midnight. All six tracks are ultimately cast towards loss, since Charly Schöppner, the trio's rhythmic enigma, passed before the record was finished in 2023. But they do this unwillingly, each alone, and they materialise the persistence of beauty in diff…

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…
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…
