As If
Miki Yui is a musician, artist, and composer, originally from Tokyo, who has been based in Düsseldorf since 1994. Her whose work has long explored multiple forms of media, while documenting liminal zones of perception. On her latest album, As If, Yui creates a subtly connected suite of electronic music, drawn from improvisations and randomised processes that she has engaged with modular synthesis. Deeply poetic in its expression, even at its most minimal, the six pieces on As If have a curious t…
Wormhole
Nicolas Gaunin, the moniker of Italian experimental electronic musician Nicola Sanguin, returns with his latest full-length “Wormhole”. This record bridges the gap between naturalistic polyrhythms and more expansive, cosmic technologies. Contrasted to his previous rain-soaked “Hulahula Kāne” LP, “Wormhole” has even more emphasis on unusual rhythms; propulsive and abstracted yet immediate. The sonic palette is diversified as well, incorporating synthetic real-world timbres alongside crisp and mor…
Sauco
Sonic journey crafted to cultivate poetic gestures amidst Fauna, Flora, Fungi, Mineral Waters, Wind, and Earth. Each track is an exploration of sound's constant transformation, akin to dragonfly particles swimming in the air. Like waves occupying a space in the spectrum, the compositions work with the movement, condensation, and lightness of the air.
Tomutonttu Ja Lehtisalo
Finland has long had a uniquely progressive underground, with thriving punk, avant, jazz, and rock scenes with oversized output and impact. Jussi Lehtisalo’s (Circle, Pharaoh Overlord, Mahti, etc) label Ektro has been at the center of this activity for the last 3 decades, with a stream of excellent and conceptually bonkers releases covering music of all types. Here Jussi joins up with Jan Anderzén (of Kemialliset Ystävät among others) for an LP of absolutely fun and unusual miniature duets that …

Macrocorpse – 2021-2024
Microcorps, Alexander Tucker's mutant techno alter ego, presents "Macrocorpse – 2021-2024", an 8-track collection of tracks that stray into a mutated space where techno-based composition inhabits the same space as microsound time scales, drone and noise. Regular Tapeworm collaborator Savage Pencil lends his warped graphic visions to the cover artwork.
"I'd always admired The Tapeworm from afar and over the years The Tapeworm and I would often bump into one another at gigs and enthuse about Derek…
Nucleus Of The Decay
Nuclear decay occurs when the nucleus of an atom is unstable and spontaneously emits energy in the form of radiation. The result is that the nucleus changes into the nucleus of one or more other elements. These daughter nuclei have a lower mass and are more stable (lower in energy) than the parent nucleus.
“(...) Ábris Gryllus, known for his performative works with choreographers, sculptors, and dancers, creates music of decay and resignation. Nucleus of the Decay is shorter than its 2020 predec…
Pudel
Dadaglobal is one of the headstrong, camouflaged in elegance: one of the crazies. With him, we are being hoaxed. He is not to be pinned down to anything other than his artistic urge to move. «Pudel» is an intermediate stop. And the bohemian forest begins to speak. The subway. The soccer stadium. New York City, London Town, Paris, Berlin, Tokyo, Kyoto, Beijing, Hongkong, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Baden. A journey, ongoing. Dadaglobal takes a seat at the Clavinet, bells in orbit and gameboy on standby. …

«The nearly infinite improvisational potential in my performances is a result of tweaking the technology, using it in unpredictable ways, musically exploiting it, and maybe even misusing it.» - Svetlana Maraš
