Named after a now-shuttered nightspot that overlooked the beach on Italy's picturesque Tuscan coast, Maxime Denuc's 'Club Imperiale' is a work of speculative historical fiction, a record that imagines a point of creative symbiosis between the Catholic church and the ecstatic dancefloors of the early '90s.

Huge Tip! “Sacred Aeolian music capturing and harnessing the divine power of the wind”. Aeolian Harp is somewhere between a string instrument and a receiver. Its strings are agitated by the wind without any human interference, producing tones entirely of its own volition. Archer toured the British Isles setting up his harp in various sacred and loosely mystical locations. Where he let the Devaharp transmit an otherwise unknown sacred music that has always existed around us. Listening to the natu…

In The Juniper Tree, an interrelationship between the ethereal and terrestrial seems to cloak the ever-present Icelandic landscape. The film, written and directed by Nietzchka Keene in 1986 and released in 1990, is disbelieving of binaries such as life and death, natural and supernatural, stillness and unrest. It is perhaps best known as the genesis point for Björk’s career as an actor, but in its compelling feminist retelling of the Brothers Grimm story of the same name it recasts tropes of wit…

*100 copies limited repress on purple vinyl* Small sounds and huge drones populate the surrealistic landscape of “Materia Vibrante”, Susana López’s gorgeous new album, her third for Elevator Bath and first on vinyl. Extraordinarily evocative, this LP is filled with detail and emotive tranquility, while occasionally swelling with the intensity of a raging sea. Surely López’s most elegant and finely hewn work to date, “Materia Vibrante” offers a fully enveloping sonic meditation. The album was bui…

"Reflex" is Gábor Lázár's debut album on Raster. His new album is a collection of seven tracks, featuring an extended sound palette of percussions and synthesizers drawing our attention towards the essential soundscapes of techno while maintaining his distinct, uncompromising and meticulously detailed style. While the tracks do not follow traditional narratives, the album has an evolution: it gently builds up from challenging, unpredictable, and organically composed structures to linear yet play…

Perila returns with a contemplative spiritual successor to her album »7.37/2.11«, which was also released on Vaagner’s sister label A Sunken Mall back in 2022. Featuring a collection of 8 pieces produced between 2021 and 2023, the album carries a serene vulnerability that underpins each work, drawing the listener in while gently grounding them amidst a drifting, ephemeral motion of echoing voices, droning guitars and sonorous soundscapes. Like a whispered conversation in the quiet moments of the…

*50 copies limited edition* In December 2025, I performed alongside Asmus Tietchens and Jetzmann at the final Hörbar Ausklang Festival. This cassette was produced for that occasion. It contains preliminary studies for my live modular synthesiser performance. The tape wasn't sold on the night, and its release ended up being postponed until now. At one point I had almost forgotten that I had even produced it. Now it's finally here—but what does that change?  The title Miszellen Band is derived fro…

Alice Kemp is a British artist working with noise, performance, fetish objects, installation and many other forms of media. Throughout her work, she articulates a broken and illogical syntax of the subconscious through trance states, dreams, and disturbances. She has performed extensively, occasionally as an associate to the Schimpfluch-Gruppe of Swiss extreme aktionists. It is a rarified violence that the Kemp invokes on her 9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning. Something disfigured. Something fucked. S…

Erik Klinga presents "Elusive Shimmer," the first installment in a trilogy of albums released by the Thanatosis label. On his debut, the Swedish electroacoustic composer offers a euphoric, celestial body of work, with the Buchla 200 synthesizer as the primary source of sound. Combined with delicate field recordings and pipe organ performances, the eight tracks here burst with melodic poignance and glow with incandescent brilliance. The opening track awakens like the first rays of dawn, with wind…

*250 copies limited edition* "Whenever I perform a concert, which is usually a one-off, I like to try something new that I have prepared and rehearsed. It's very rare to return to the music afterwards and record a studio version. On 25 November 2023, I played a concert in Münster, Germany, and I was very pleased with how it turned out. However, because I was given 30 minutes, I felt it was a bit rushed, and I recorded a new version at home shortly afterwards. The inclusion of shortwave radio sou…

*250 copies limited edition* "The origins of Aphelion trace back to 2021, when Jim Wilson of Voice of Eye proposed a collaboration with Thomas Dimuzio. The initial concept was to create a deep space musical project featuring modern Buchla and 1970s-era Korg synthesizers. Eventually, they approached throat singer Soriah to see if he would be interested in contributing his unique organic vocal techniques to complement their ethereal drones, providing an intriguing counterpoint. This collaboration …

*250 copies limited edition* "A speculative investigation into the possible disposition of reificative agencies and their direct or indirect relation to the mechanism of proto-manifestation at the boundaries between the material and non-material states of energetic disposition and organisation" Behind the mysterious notion "Extrusiarch" we find the concept of a 'creation myth' or energy that, loosely based on Gnosticism, is a kind of membrane that transforms unformed things into physical ones, o…

*200 copies limited edition* Recorded at Cool Anatomy and Slithis Studios by HH and AQ

*300 copies limited edition* Released on CD with 16 pages A5 booklet.

"Finnish experimental veteran Mika Vainio has kept up a brisk output of new music as of late. In the second half of last year, he put out collaborative albums with Joachim Nordwall and Stephen O'Malley, and on the solo front came Kilo, an arresting set of fierce, heavy rhythms reminiscent of his work in Pan Sonic. Vainio's latest solo effort is Konstellaatio, an atmospheric and often-poignant journey from his legendary Ø project. Konstellaatio is Ø's first proper full-length since 2008's Oleva, …

Finnish label Sähkö Recordings is launching a new archival series of unreleased work from its co-founder Mika Vainio. The late Vainio left behind plenty of unreleased material after his passing in 2017. Arc 1 represents the first in a series of releases that draw on Vainio’s archives. The material here was constructed for a 1994 radio project, entitled Ambient City, that Vainio performed as Ø. Both sides here begin with perturbed ambient synth-scapes - grumbling LFOs, digital noise, that sort of…

Tip! *75 copies limited edition* Ianua takes its name from the Latin word for “door,” drawing inspiration from the symbolism of Janus—the two-faced deity of beginnings, endings, and transitions. Conceived as a cyclical work where the end folds back into the beginning, the album is built entirely from guitar sounds, transformed through a Plumbutter and recorded to tape. Changes in tape speed and playback irregularities introduce subtle imperfections and shifting variations, allowing the loops to …

Noton is pleased to announce12 Conversations, a collaborative album by Ryuichi Sakamoto and Alva Noto to be released on 18 September 2026.

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.

Several years after the release of ‘Metamorphosis’ (with Sid Hille), Multicast Dynamics (Samuel van Dijk) reemerges on Astral Industries with ‘Circles’ - an enchanting two-part work venturing into deep unconscious realms. Sonic landscapes unfold in a sequence of hidden spaces and intimate revelations, featuring detailed sound design and rich thematic content.
 Circle One initiates the process, opening gently with glassy drones and the patter of distant voices. A faint light shimmers through swir…

Wolfgang Voigt makes a return to Astral Industries, seeing the continuation of his long-running Rückverzauberung (Reverse Enchantment) series. In line with previous volumes, one may expect the unconventional, idiosyncratic sound Voigt is reputed for. ‘Im Tunnel’ however, takes a more concentrated viewpoint - a metaphysical transmutation that brings with it an experience of mind-melting drones and swelling intensity.  Entering the tunnel is like opening a portal, but as the fabric of time-space b…

Anushka Chkheidze + Robert Lippok continue their collaboration with »The Sky Was Out of Tune«. Its eight movements form a long-form ambient piece in constant flux: soundscapes emerge from electronic synthesis and layered textures, while small melodies, rhythmic patterns, metallic noises, or distortions drift through like clouds across the sky. But a sky that is out of tune is still a sky. What shifts is the register in which it speaks. »The Sky Was Out of Tune« emerges from a live performance fo…

"Broshuda returns on the newly born label Ballads Infinite with another array of absurdist vignettes, lowercase hi-tech ambience and textural degradations of radio transmissions from the bicameral mind. Weaving multiple sonic timelines into silky yet slippery articulations, he sculpts each sound with deliberate care making it breathe, slither and shimmer. Spells conjures a subterranean force through its vanishing presence, with the restraint in the sonic palette feeling utterly refreshing, as wa…

Final Image’s fourth release is a compilation of three works by the composer, mastering engineer and artist Jacques Beloeil, on the anniversary of his passing in 2023.

As he is master of crushing beats/bass, Mick Harris remained faithfull to his primary love - drones! With brand new Lull, Harris deliveres four deep drone pieces, each for one side of vinyl. Beware your record player stylus that it is going to have hard job reproducing the depths of this new dimension music...

Layered guitars, synths and wordless vocals set the scenery in this epic, beautiful and introspective solo debut by musical wanderer Lynn Wright. Wright, who has mostly eschewed developing a fixed artistic identity throughout his already long career, has preferred to remain on the periphery of collaborative projects and behind the scenes. It took until recent times for him to make “Before The Sinking Plains”, which arrives as his first solo recording after decades of traversing underground scene…

Italian sound artist Giulio Aldinucci returns with his 5th album on KARL: „Materia” is unsurprisingly a truly masterfully composed and sound-designed ambient masterpiece that adds perfectly to a series of critically acclaimed albums like “Disappearing In A Mirror” (2018) or “Shards Of Distant Times” – some of which made it onto several year’s best lists.

*200 copies limited edition* Ten years after "Il dipinto ucciso", Candor Chasma returns with "Seance". While the album comes full circle, revisiting the project's original fixations - the spirit world, stripped of any gothic overtone - it also signals a decisive shift in sonic language. Frameworks of abstract noise, fractured post-techno structures, asymmetric rhythms and heavily processed percussion, filters and saturation pushed to their limits: all shape five compositions poised between hypno…

Tape loops and noises from our friend dolphin hospital, initially they were performed live this spring in Paris, being overwhelmed during the shows, we just asked for the live recordings and decided to release them, voila!!!

The album ‘November 89’ comprises a selection of very early GAS tracks, some of which date back to the late 1980s. They were first released in 2008 as a CD insert in the art book ‘Wolfgang Voigt GAS’, published on Raster-Noton. Just like the photographs in the book, these pieces are early precursors that would evolve in the ensuing years with the albums ‘Zauberberg’ and ‘Königsforst’ into a style-defining, audiovisual “Gesamtkunstwerk” (total work of art) comprising hypnotically focused forest i…

All songs by Felix-Florian Tödtloff. Recorded April 2025 in Berlin, Germany. Field recording on Federaun from Villach, Austria, August 2025.

"Drift was a relatively short-lived project created by Gabriele  Giuliani. Better known through his notorious nom de plume, Dead Body Love. Within the course of only a few short years, Drift released a dozen sought after releases on such legendary imprints as Slaughter, Old Europa Cafe, SSSM, Harmonie, and his own Less Than Zero, before fading behind the curtains Exile was not only the debut release by Drift, but also the beginning to a trilogy of cassettes released on Slaughter Productions. It …

"Second in the trilogy of Drift albums released on SlaughterProductions, The Beyond takes on a minimal yet darker approach, sheding the dense cavernous aspect of the preceding album, Exile. Replaced, is a more introspective Autumnal Dark Ambient style, which will become Drift's trademark on following releases. However, Gabrielle Giuliani never abandons the isolationist atmosphere he previously established. The result is a masterwork in Ambient Industrial Noise.  Winds howl, rain soaked leaves ar…

*2026 stock. 100 copies limited edition. CD + 2 x A2 posters, offset, 80 gr uncoated paper* Composed, performed, and recorded by Christian Di Vito with a self-built synthesizer.

Shimmering and deeply inward-looking, A New Life finds Florian TM Zeisig tracing grief, anger and stillness as one continuous current of sound. Harp, saxophone and cello drift through long ambient chords, shaping a 41-minute spiral that treats emotion not as rupture but as radiant, integrated presence.

*50 copies limited edition* Megachurch is a collaborative album by Perry Frank & Matteo Cantaluppi, featuring Marco Scipione on processed saxophone.Combining ambient textures, analog arpeggiators, and sculpted timbres, the record explores the idea of the “church” not as a religious site, but as a mental and acoustic space. It is a sonic cathedral built from echoes, delays, silences, and layered textures. The saxophone does not preach — it breathes. The synthesizers don’t lead a ritual — they rep…

Monumental reissue of Lucier's four-part investigation into acoustic interference. Musicians sustain tones against fixed sine waves, creating audible beat patterns that reveal the hidden architecture of sound itself

Adrian Smith of Luton spent three years playing in punk-inflected bands with his brother Derek (Those Nervous Surgeons, Half Nervous) before retreating alone to a bedroom and a synthesizer in 1979. What emerged was something no one in his immediate environment was making: long, atmospheric, analogue pieces built from hand-played sequences, emotionless production, and a palpable air of melancholia. His first two tapes, From the Silent Days and Absolutely Safe, were given only to friends, having n…

French composer Sylvain Bombled aka Mayerling is back on HITD with ‘Finis Terrae’, marking the project's first album in 8 years. In the winter of 2025, the musician came up with these five pieces while in solitary retreat on the northern coast of Ouessant, the westernmost island of metropolitan France. The rough weather, the awe-inspiring beauty of the surroundings and the majestic grandeur of the natural elements play a pivotal role in each composition, allowing Mayerling to delve into his inne…

*300 copies limited edition* Anybody paying attention to what’s been happening at Lumberton Trading Company during recent months should have noticed that Modelbau had a collaborative CD with Bass Communion released in late March. Meshing abstract electronics with ambient textures, field recordings and a more electroacoustic setting, 'Analysis Reveals Nothing of Substance' brought together the minds of Frans de Waard and Steven Wilson into a space that proved their own slightly different takes on…
