Electronic / Minimalism

Fusing decades of underground New York jazz with contemporary electronics, Daniel Carter and N/UM’s Sphēra takes listeners on a spontaneous and daring journey through generations of improvised music. A telepathic meeting between the mellowed out, octogenarian free jazz legend and an experienced trio at the peak of their powers, Sphēra coalesces into a whole far exceeding the sum of its parts.

**Original 1983 pressing, sealed copies. Few available**  In the late 1970s, Steve Piccolo was a founding member of the seminal No Wave jazz band Lounge Lizards along with John Lurie, his brother Evan Lurie and Arto Lindsay. He’d studied music at Bard and NYU and was doing performances, art and sound installations at night while during the day maintaining a job as a Wall Street computer analyst. This is his second solo LP, again a minimalist and radical rethinking of song, mixing a post-punk/DIY…

An absolutely astounding accomplishment, Black Sweat's 4 LP Box set of previously unreleased material by Ariel Kalma - French Archives Vol. III - is a mind-melting immersion into the composer and saxophonist's radical experiments and stunning ambient harmonics made between 1974 and 1985. Venturing far beyond the territories for which he is most well-known, the collection takes great strides to accurately framing ambient and New Age musics as rightful extensions of the avant-garde, and is easily …

Dark Entries flashes back to the grimy streets of New York City circa 1982 to bring us an unreleased album from cult outfit Ike Yard. Comprised of Stuart Argabright, Michael Diekmann, Kenneth Compton, and Fred Szymanski, Ike Yard sits between the sinewy proto-body music of the Neue Deutsche Welle and the shattered grooves of their No Wave peers in New York. The band’s initial run was short but blinding. They released an EP for Les Disques du Crépuscule in 1981, which was followed by their legend…

Azimuth is the first full-length collaboration from Tyresta (aka Chicago-based Nick Turner) and cellist Simon McCorry (Gloucestershire, UK), featuring a quintet of impressionistic arrangements that combine swells of harmonic guitar with delicately composed strings and accents of modular synth. The resulting formations convey both the acoustic resonance of chamber music, and the experimental wash and warmth of shoegaze, making for a unique creation that is equal parts meditative and narrative. “S…

zakè’s deep attachment to the seasons of the Midwest, along with his intuitive approach to sound creation, has led to a deep and varied body of analog ambient drone recordings across the past ten years. Many of his albums take on the forms and colors of the space in which they are heard, but others convey something more fleeting and indefinable, far beyond the five senses. Cantus for Winter in Six Parts creates a space for comfort, contemplation, nostalgia, and longing; a moment of stillness tha…

Modern Love with a new 7” series reserved for asymmetric bangers and pop diversions, opening with a double A-side from Andy Stott, his first single in 11 years. Inna bare, dancehall style ‘Out (Version)’ on the A side feels out skeletal drums and stabs for a pure adrenaline rush in the dance. On the AA, ’Love (Version)’ cranks martial drums for propulsion; a euphoric rhythm searching for a vocal. Aye it’s a special one. Some heat coming in this series, keep it locked.

Startled out of a nightmare, words and melodies echo – emissaries of the Tempted Dissident. Minimalist analogue electronics and haunting vocal lines emerge from the darkness and get caught in the folds of the brain. That’s how you might feel after listening to the fourth album by Te/DIS. The clarity of the electronics and vocals does not fail to make an impact. With this release, Te/DIS continues the sonic path laid out by the previous albums, shaping a body of work whose internal coherence is a…

xavisphone's debut for Modern Love hits with unrelenting energy; a hyper-kinetic, red-lining funk that joins dots between DJ Anderson do Paraiso’s darkside minimalism, Equiknoxx’s riddmic pressure and DJ Ramon Sucesso’s walloping delirium.

*60 copies limited edition* The time that flows here remains constant even though the space has changed with the time passing by. This project explores the time and existence of the imaginary space associated with the sounds and melodies.

*80 copies limited edition* In the sleep of forms, everything bends and unravels. “Dream Flow” is a liquid threshold — a single current from the first drop to the vanishing of the self. It does not tell a dream: it lets it happen, like a thought forgetting it ever began. Raindrops arise in sinking feelings; fractures bloom where things are hollow — a recasting of indices spirals toward the vanishing, and the echo dreams itself anew.

*60 copies limited edition* This album is like a mirror in which disappearances and vanishing happen quietly and unobtrusively, a place where reality and fantasy intertwine and the boundary between life and death becomes an endless blur. A place where realities gradually fade away, making room for new truths, and time becomes merely an echo of what unfolds deep within existence. Nahal Kavand is a multidisciplinary sound artist based in Tehran. She uses field recordings and ambient sounds to crea…

*70 copies limited edition* Music, in its deepest essence, has always represented a means of inquiry into reality—a sensitive way of questioning the world. A way of observing, deconstructing, and reassembling reality through an imaginative lens. A reality that is never given once and for all, but instead presents itself as a process in constant flux, as a shifting appearance. Music, understood in this way, is not something separate from reality, but a transfigured emanation of it, capable of tra…

When we can no longer move forward or look outward, some reflect and seek truth in themselves – some sharing, through the language of music, what might be impossible to say through words.

*300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Library act with different people involved depending on the record. Not a side project of Jenkins & Ratledge per se. Karl Jenkins co-forming Nucleus, which won first prize at the Montreux jazz festival. This was followed by a period with Soft Machine, one of the seminal bands of the 1970's. Michael Ratledge Founder and long-time member of Soft Machine.

In the wake of their acclaimed comeback album 'Figures' (2020), Aksak Maboul took a playful sideways step to create this total work, a 63-minute, continuous suite of fifteen pieces, which could be described as an experimental audio play. The thread running through 'Une aventure de VV (Songspiel)' is Véronique Vincent’s text, an enigmatic philosophical-poetical tale unfolding through monologues and dialogues, spoken and sung by a series of characters, played by Alig Fodder, Laetitia Sadier, Audr…

Poiesis by o[rlawren] deepens his exploration of sound as organic process, merging modular synthesis and field recordings into a meditation on creation and renewal. Released in 2025 by Dronarivm and Fonodroom, the album extends his dialogue between the natural and the artificial, sculpting an emotionally resonant landscape at once fragile, tactile, and alive.

Caterina Barbieri & Bendik Giske's At Source resounds music as wellspring, that which is essential and unknowable, and yet utterly primary. It finds two acclaimed composer-musicians building a world together in self-contained collaboration between analogue synthesis and an extended approach to the saxophone that conjures its own universe of sound. It is at once intimate and cosmic, drawing on the challenges and possibilities of their artistic exchange, tearing down technique to access all the ex…

On Threewave, 36 gathers Wave Variations, Symmetry Systems and Reality Engine into a single arc of luminous machine melancholia: a five‑year study in concise synth miniatures where strict limitations yield ever‑wider emotional and conceptual horizons.

Live at Obliquo, recorded in october 2025. This performance by nara is neus has been taking listeners to their different but indeed so close intimate worlds. The tracks in this album are not so straight anti climax textures evolving into some kind of emotional noise that stays well beyond your spleen and ideal.

„ behind horizons at the end of a breath why I love luna parks *_* „ Ben Kaczor debuts his first LP on St. Odes. Sirene showcases a more experimental and cinematic approach to sound. Tracks such as Amusement Impressions and Phantom Blues emerged from his fine art studies, while Sirene and Oval Waves reflect his work with the Buchla Easel. The artwork features a photograph by the artist himself, making the record one of his most personal works to date.

"The Sound Leaves" began as an interactive sound performance and installation based around humans’ impact on the environment and how that impact is altering the sonic landscape of our world. As ecosystems change due to climate collapse, the sound of those ecosystems changes too. "The Sound Leaves" used an amplified collection of autumn leaves to encourage participants to listen closely to how their actions alter the sounds of the fallen leaves by walking on and through them for a period of time.…

*200 copies limited edition* The series of double albums by Gianluca Becuzzi for St.An.Da/Silentes, which began in 2020 with "In Between", continues. Like its predecessors, "American Requiem" combines drone guitar with sacred themes, creating compositions with a dark and captivating mood. This time, the theme of faith and death in the land of capitalist materialism par excellence, the United States, is placed at the centre of the work, with the use of a mix of traditional country-blues and avant…

In an incredible stroke of luck, the Silentes sub-imprint, 13, returns with a long-awaited, expanded reissue of one of their most beloved and sought-after releases, Gigi Masin's incredible "Plays Venezia".

Drawing on Isoda’s deep legacy (notably his legendary work on Oscilation Circuit – Série Réflexion 1 from mythical label Sound Process) and fused with aus’ spellbinding melodies, Interwoven is ethereal healing sound: lingering piano, soft cinematic synths, field recording…

Vic Bang's "Oda" arrives quietly - it was waiting for the right moment. The eight tracks are shaped by listening, by circling around sound instead of chasing it... you can definitely hear patience in the pacing, a willingness to let ideas linger, to let all the small motifs breathe. The album moves with a softer and more deliberate rhythm than much of Vic's earlier work, as the sound world here feels concentrated and cohesive, built from a limited set of elements that gradually reveal themselves…

Uncompromised drone music to elevate your soul and flesh.

*300 copies limited edition* "The Glitch hype was a rather short one. But it brought together different scenes; minimal techno, sound art and electronic minimalism. Then it hit a dead end and dissolved. In the centre of Glitch we found labels like Mille Plateaux (who released the formative ”Clicks + Cuts”) and raster-noton who especially with their static series formed a sound. The first release (2000) was by a young Andreas Tilliander who under his new moniker Mokira released the ”Cliphop” alb…

*100 copies limiteed edition* Bone Flower is the vinyl debut by Belgian musician Ben Van Houdt (Sitka), releasing solo work since 2015. Born from a decade of sound experiments, the album unfolds as a focused and emotionally charged performance, fusing modern classical elements with drone and minimalist composition. Centered around bowed guitar that drifts between the timbral spaces of cello and violin, its harmonic textures are shaped by magnetic tape and decaying sound structures, creating mome…

Big tip! *2025 repress* An early ‘80s ambient jazz gem from the archive of Manchester’s Kevin McCormick & David Horridge. In 1970, Kevin and David met whilst they were working in the Labour Exchange Office on Aytoun St, Manchester. Both played guitar and had been searching for other musicians who played atmospheric music. Kevin had been playing in small clubs in Manchester and David performed in a few local bands. One evening, they jammed together at Kevin’s family home, and quickly realized tha…
