El Sol de los Muertos
*150 copies limitede edition* Originally released on Umor Rex on cassette a year ago, “El Sol de los Muertos” deeply shaped the evolution and vision of Mexican producer Concepción Huerta’s sonic work, becoming a reference point for a kind of experimental sound deeply connected to Latin American critical thought. This is the second album in a series of four special, limited reissues to be released in 2026 to mark the 20th anniversary of Umor Rex.
Crafted entirely through subharmonic structures an…
Nusa
*200 copies limited edition* "Nusa" is the last part of a trilogy started in 2020 with Masao Yamamoto and Akira Uchida. A project that began with light (“Sasanami”, 2020), moved through darkness (“Kurayami”, 2023), and returned to the ambivalence of the two (“Nusa”, 2026), which ultimately sustain and complement one another in all their variations and complementarities. Both in terms of tones and in the humanity that runs through us in these times of such stark contrast. For this last part of th…
La Manzana Mágica
One of 12k’s most endearing artists is back with a new album. From Argentina, Federico Durand presents La Manzana Mágica, an album in signature Federico style inspired by his collection of Cinderlla stamps, in a way only Federico could do. Named after the folk-tale heroine, Cinderellas, throughout the last century, were considered inferior to official postage stamps, but became a sought-after collector’s item. There are some pieces whose origin, circulation context, or illustrator’s name are unk…
Dedicate to Forget
Thomas Carney, also active as Giugno and as sound technician mixing and mastering in an audio spectrum going from techno to hardcore punk, delivers here seven delicate blossoms recorded while traveling Europe and in NYC. Fragmentary poetry, with a firm, translucent style, drawing a faint but significant line of demarcation from his previous releases on No Rent and Trust Collective.
Driving Through Belgium
*300 copies limited edition* There is a particular kind of strangeness that arrives on long drives across Europe. Flat light, service stations and fields stretching endlessly past the window. It might look mundane at first glance, but becomes faintly surreal when the tiredness of touring blurs the edges of everything. That feeling became the quiet engine behind Driving Through Belgium, the debut solo album from Anton Pearson, best known as one of the guitarists in respected post-punk outfit Squi…
Before Sunset, Street Corner, Cafe Fabre
A collaborative album by two Japanese electronic and experimental legends! Yasushi Yamashita, 1/2 of the renowned duo Inoyama Land, pioneers of ambient and Kankyō Ongaku, and Asuna, author of the renowned concert/performance "100 Keyboards" numerous solo albums, and a critically acclaimed LP recorded with Jan Jelinek. Two generations of Japanese electronic pioneers on one album.
Romantiq
*2026 stock* The music of Markus Popp is endlessly curious. Since the early 90s his pioneering albums as Oval have continually excavated new spaces in electronic music, leaving an indelible mark on the landscape. Popp’s playful and singular approach to sound has continually left critics and peers alike confounded by his ability to conjure such lithe, evocative sonics from software. Celebrated collaborations with Jan St. Werner as Microstoria remain foundational texts in underground music, while …
Live at Pe:rsona
From the edges of a hallucinatory torpor, Rue des Garderies continue their explorations in psychedelia — Femacosmé presents here a new piece recorded live at the Pe:rsona festival, at Domaine des Éveils in the summer of 2025. An adventure guided by blur, the intangible, the impermanent, where layers, voices, sounds, and organic and synthetic echoes resonate, emerge, then fade away — as if to deceive reality, or at least our perception of it. More than two semi-improvised hours in which Rue des G…
The Empty Rose
Chihei Hatakeyama, captivating the world with his beautiful ambient/drone works, and Ken Ikeda, an original improvisational musician radiating a unique presence. This work, both artists spent approximately ten years recording and meticulously editing down to the finest details, explores the theme of “a mental landscape where distorted dreams and crumbling daily life intersect, where anxiety and darkness seep into the cracks, and faint light flickers within the depths of silence.” A total of 16 i…
Electronic Music 1994-2021
*2026 stock* For this album I have assembled a collection of contrasting works from the archives. Some have previously been released, others not. Three pieces: Sculptor, Touche pas, and Bubble chamber are based on the microsound techniques of granular synthesis and micro-montage. By contrast, Modulude, Clang-tint, and Still life were conceived before my microsound period. For any given piece, my compositional practice usually takes years. For example, Modulude was initially conceived in 1998 and…
Inweys
Inweys is the new project from Glaswegian musicians Conal Blake (Feedback Moves, Domestic Exile) and Murray Collier (Real Landscape, Dip Friso, Grim Lusk). Their debut self-titled 12" was recorded in the summer of 2024 at La Chunky Studio in Glasgow. The 12" is due for release on May 1st and the duo will be performing live at Counterflows Festival, Glasgow and at Laden 2, Berlin. They asked Fielding Hope of Counterflows Festival to write a short reflection on the record: "Inweys debut release ar…
Alone
*2026 stock* "Alone" is the third longplayer from Italian sound artist Simone Giudice, following his 2021 album "Materia" released on the Spanish Semantica label. The album brings together seven parts that impress with compositional diversity and confidence, merging into a complete work.
With sensitivity, melodic arcs of tension are brought together with partly classical instruments such as the piano, a dramaturgical performance that knows exactly when to press which emotional button to involve …
Ousia
*2026 stock* With Ousia, Joachim Spieth presents his third full-length album on his label Affin. Originally released as a double 12", the record translates ephemeral impressions into cinematic soundscapes and unfolds across eight pieces that form an intense, emotional journey — exploring the subtle interplay between external perception and inner reflection.
The album also features Mutuus, a captivating and unique collaboration between Markus Guentner and Joachim Spieth — their first joint work i…
Tides
*2026 stock* Originally released in 2020 as a double 12", Tides marked Joachim Spieth’s second full-length album on his Affin imprint. The record quickly sold out and has now been reissued as a carefully crafted CD edition presented in a 6-panel digipak.
The album unfolds across eight tracks, shaped by endlessly interwoven layers and subtle shifts of tone, tracing a path between immersive, melancholic, and euphoric moments. Flowing textures and atmospheric depth merge into a vivid emotional land…
Onda
*2026 stock* With "Onda", Regensburg artist Markus Guentner releases his follow-up to Empire, which appeared on A Strangely Isolated Place in 2021.
"Onda" captivates with its orchestral-like progressions, an endlessly interwoven carpet of sound that spreads out over six etudes. As if in slow motion, he scans through the individual sound particles, works out details, lets dust fall from the source material, cores, connects and in the end lets everything flow...
"Onda" will be released on May 5, 2…
The Sea
"It might sound like a cliché, but the music on the album "The Sea" emerged from watching the sea every morning on Fårö - more precisely, in Aursviken. It was the subtle shifts in the sea, the waves, the direction of the wind, and the colour of the sky that filled me with inspiration. The light and the darkness. The fact that we have this beautiful sea surrounding us, and the sky above as an opening toward infinity. Sometimes it’s that simple. I recorded the entire album during the summer of 202…
Piano Distance
*Every copy is assembled by hand, slowly and deliberately. No two will ever be exactly the same. Individually numbered. Limited to 75 copies. * There is a quiet moment as winter begins to loosen its grip, when the frost softens, the light lingers a little longer, and time seems to gently unfold. With 'Piano Distance', Japanese composer Nakamura Hiroyuki invites us into that fragile threshold between seasons.
A pianist, composer, and visual artist working at the intersection of acoustic instrumen…
Wave Salt +7
*100 copies limited edition* Josh Mason’s new collection, "Wave Salt +7," emerges from an oblique origin. Unearthed from a dormant hard drive, it documents a set of work sessions only partially recoverable, their original continuity and intent fractured by time and technical failure. What remains is a constellation of mercurial gestures that proves, against all odds, to be entirely consonant with Mason’s ongoing musical concerns.
In a sense, the very condition of partiality proves generative, wi…
Standing On A Hummingbird
*300 copies limited edition* "Originally released on Ezekiel Honig's Anticipate label in 2007, Standing on a Hummingbird is the debut album by Canadian sound artist Mark Templeton, now appearing for the first time on vinyl, newly remastered by Giuseppe Ielasi and cut by Lupo. Working at the intersection of post-glitch, electroacoustic ambient, and textural minimalism, Templeton composes through restraint and erosion, building patient and richly tactile pieces primarily from acoustic sources - fi…
