Shadows
Los Angeles musician Cate Kennan’s self-produced second full-length unfolds with the poetry and immateriality of its title: Shadows. 10 vignettes of keys, strings, reverb, and voice, the songs sway and lope between dream and lullaby, rose-colored but remote. The album was inspired by the dislocation Kennan felt upon returning, after several years away, to the rustic neighborhood northwest of L.A. where she’d grown up: “Wandering through a place where my life once existed but where everything had…
Closed for the Festival
On Closed For The Festival, MIDI Janitor turns childhood memories of a Donegal Christian commune into warped, luminous hauntology: junkyard beats, dream‑logic electronics and uncanny “thin places” where pastoral bliss slips into quietly sinister wonder.
Lite Hits
In the early 90s there were a few like minded friends making a unique style of lo-fi pop music. At the core of this non-scene were Sukpatch, Land of the Loops and The Ah Club, who all tended to play on each other's recordings. As the decade went on each of them learned how to use their instruments better, smoothing over the edges, but in typical fashion, the early home recordings had a special feeling that couldn’t be replicated with cleaner fidelity and nicer equipment. Sukpatch especially were…
Meadow creature
Overdriven Casio tunes and bittresweet tape grime miscellanea by Kait Jensen finally (partially) collected!
Holy to Dogs
Holy to Dogs, the newest album from The MIDI Janitor, is a haunted, downtempo odyssey of outsider electronics and dusty, dreamlike beats. Vancouver’s Jonathan Orr repurposes scavenged MIDI controllers and obsolete synths, producing spectral melodies, melancholy textures, and a pulsating DIY spirit that veers between ambient, hauntology, and rusted techno.
Even The Dog Knows
All Night Flight Records proudly presents Even The Dog Knows, a mesmerizing collection of home recordings by South London duo Jemima, marking the seventh release on the label's carefully curated roster.

Even The Dog Knows emerges from a world of found sounds and fragmented memories, where wobbly loops o…

Death Ovary Traces
Reissue of Argiope’s debut cassette, released by Slaughter Productions in 1994 following a small run on the artist’s own Atom Institute label. Argiope project was born after Marco Corbelli proposed that Federico De Caroli / Deca record a release for Slaughter.
While Deca’s albums were still quite industrial, dark music, he felt that Marco deserved a much more extreme production than anything Deca recorded up to that point. The result was Argiope's debut release Death Ovary Traces, a work of depr…
Laundry
"Kevin, a new collaboration between Ben Bondy and Mister Water Wet, presents what feels like a time-machine hidden in the back of your closet. ‘Laundry’ pleasantly haunts listeners with phantom purrs, harmonies, hums and horns. This project is a hand reaching through the void and out of your speakers responding to moments of isolation and pining with resounding gratitude. It makes space for warmth in slow-healing wounds; the gift of reset that is born from the call and response between friends."…
