Regression Vol. 3 (Other Days)
*2023 stock* Other Days represents Nate Young's most labyrinthine incursion into the nether zone between waking life and nightmarish, cryptographic noise. The recordings stem from an exhibition of lathe-cut etchings and paintings by Young and his wife, Alivia Zivich, installed at Tokyo's Haus Gallery. The process involved designing original images for 22 8" x 8" pieces of acrylic, which in turn inspired 22 audio compositions which were then lathe-cut into the acrylic. The process of lathe-cuttin…

Mirrors
*150 copies limited edition* For their first collaboration as a duo, rather than succumb to the devastating fury that is the hallmark of so-called 'noise' music, Michael Morley (electric guitar) and Michel Henritzi (lapsteel) have opted for the open sea, and the interior landscapes with the ghostly strangeness that is usually associated with them. The emergence of embryonic melodies under their fingers never frightens them. On the contrary, it allows them to delve deeply into the contemplative a…
2015-2020
Under the production moniker of Material Things, 12th Isle co-founder Stewart Brown unveils a part debut album part compendium of musical collaborations spanning from 2015-2020. Some recordings began as long, one-take improvisations (How's Life, Peckham) spliced together and revisited years later. Others were based upon chance opportunities to record with musicians operating a long way from the parameters of 12th Isle. Cult private-press loner folk guitarist Bob Theil, whose 1982 album So Far co…
The Summer Passed In Monotone
*200 copies limited edition* It dawns slowly here in Appalachia, summer's persistent pulse, that seething solidity of buzzing insects, flowers bursting into wilt, animals waking and returning in preparation to leave and sleep again. It's the peak and the decline, the sun's summit and sinking, the heat blast of day and the cool pall of night. There never seems to be quite enough time. Summer begs us to hold onto it, to be asked to stay, even in its heat and the incessant light, to allow it to con…

In 1948, Moses Asch founded Folkways Records with a self-proclaimed mandate to record the sounds of the entire world. From the Sounds of North American Frogs to Speech After the Removal of the Larynx, Folkways documented the audible nooks and crannies of existence on hundreds of LPs produced by field recordists, scientists, and experimentalists probing the margins of the human soundscape. Seventy-five years later, electronic music duo Matmos have diced, looped, stretched, and recontextualized th…

Alternate African Reality – Electronic, Electroacoustic And Experimental Music From Africa And The Diaspora
*2023 stock* "Alternate African Reality is a follow-up to several compilations I have published on Syrphe since 2007 (the first one, Beyond Ignorance and Borders included various artists from Africa and Asia), and even earlier on my defunct tape label in the 1990s (the last tape, Archives Humaines vol.1, was published in 1996 and included 25 artists from 25 countries, including non-Western ones : South Africa, Japan, Chile, Brazil).
Alternate African Reality could be seen as a drastic improvemen…
Regression
Wolf Eyes’ Nate Young captured at the peak of his powers, doing his singular technoid punk thing a decade ago at Hamburg’s legendary Golden Püdel. Oozing like brain juice from a caved skull, it’s fully gnarled, hi-grade TripMetal, a perfect addition to the DDS tape series.

Auris
*2023 stock* Organ Of Corti is the new collaboration of Swedish masters Dan Johansson (Sewer Election), Mattias Gustafsson (Altar of Flies), and Joachim Nordwall (iDEAL, The Skull Defekts). Each artist's individual brilliance shines forth in Organ Of Corti, but this is much more than the sum of its parts. "Auris" takes the familiar murkiness of Johansson and Gustafsson, injects a healthy dose of Nordwall's crisp electronics, and assembles everything into a series of spacious, brilliantly execute…

Conjugate Regions
Tip! *2023 stock. 100 copies limited edition* Euphotic brings together three seasoned sonic experimenters, each with a unique approach – put in simple terms – natural, physical, and imaginary. Natural - bones, driftwood, stones, sand, wind and water; physical - gravity, friction, resonance, kinetic forces; imaginary - technological circuitry making hitherto imaginary sounds real via plotted electricity.

Sinestesia
*2023 stock. 100 copies limited edition. one sided sandpaper disc with three-fold insert & download code* Sinestesia (synesthesia) is a perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.

Syrian Edge
*2023 stock. 150 copies limited edition* Claudio Rocchetti succeeds in sublimating incoherent masses of noise and excerpts of daily routines: reinterpreting these acoustic signals through tape manipulation, he crafts sonic matter unheard before and yet somehow familiar, like ghosts from the past resurfacing from white noise, reflections on the mirror of memory, stratified into new euphonic languages.
Syrian Edge is the first act of Panorama – a triptych investigating the work of Claudio Rocchett…
Island Within An Island
*2023 stock. 150 copies limited edition* In the second act of Panorama, Claudio Rocchetti idealize self-discovery, embarking on a journey through a land once thriving and now stripped of every meaning.
Like a silent observer, he wanders through the meanders of a pale and intangible non-place, witnessing the residual memories of an urban cemetery: abandoned and decrepit structures, whose skeletons remain as a symbol of a lost daydream. Imperceptible frequencies of deafening silence leak the image…
