Taipei, Seoul 2019, 2022
*2023 stock. 30 copies limited edition C90* This recording is an album containing the duo recordings of Choi Taehyun and Park Daham. Choi Taehyun and Park Daham first started playing as a duo on May 14, 2013, and have been performing as a duo occasionally. Park Daham, remembering that it was their last concert in Taiwan in 2019, accidentally suggested that we try recording again, and in March 2022, the duo recorded in Taehyun Choi's practice room. I wish all my Taiwanese friends well.
Vessels: Spellbook in the House of Hearts
Songs from Vessels: Spellbook in the House of Hearts is a collection of songs from my VR micro-opera cycle Vessels. Each song is a kind of evocative painting, intertwining technology with the sensual, the poetic, and the eerie. Spells 37 and 25, depict a gramophone with a spider at its base and a snake as the speaker.
Void Ov Voices : Baalbek
"I started Void Ov Voices in 2006 to create ritualistic music for the moment, to play only live performances while capturing and interfering with the energy of the space and the time of the location. The first time I travelled to Lebanon was in 2008 for one particular reason: to visit the Trilitons and the giant Monoliths of Baalbek. I was deeply impressed by the level of ancient civilisations engineering technology and the intense magical atmosphere of the whole area. I have been fascinated by a…
22 / 23
Gerald Cleaver’s newest album, 22/23, journeys through genre, exploring the future and recalling history, in his most place-based album yet. Born and raised in Detroit, Cleaver is a product of the Motor City’s rich musical history. Long the manufacturing capital of America, Detroit citizens have never been afraid of imagination: technological innovation, a strong labor movement, techno-utopianism or afrofuturism. This spirit of innovation is felt on Cleaver’s newest album, particularly on songs …
Fantasmusics
Electronic musician Dominique Laurent and Pinok Et Matho, who have been researching physical performance, mainly traditional theatre, and have produced some of the most strangest songs of all time. The first album [Les Pays De Tout En Tout] from Unidisc in 1978, the second [Azur Et Tenebres] in 1982 and this [Fantasmusics] from PG in 1983 contain everything, from childish theatre to contemporary music and jazz.
DUF
Gijs Gieskes’ creations bridge the divide between innovative modules in Eurorack format and stand-alone art-gallery installations. Fuelled by barely tamed electricity and informed by a high-tech junk yard aesthetic, they seem to possess a life of their own, like a new breed of insect androids. Some of them are electro-mechanical-acoustic and some are purely electronic. In action, they exude the kind of clumsy and lonely autonomous machine helplessness you get from a Survival Research Laboratorie…
Ouroborindra
We're absolutely delighted to announce the reissue of Ouroborindra on the Ghost Box Records label.
Pan Global Riot
Tip! Paul Baran is the hidden master of Scottish experimental and electro-acoustic music, an ignorer of boundaries and a fuser of genres. In this age of constant engagement, Baran’s Pan Global Riot takes on the necessary task of assessing the now. This remarkable new album might be the only one you’ll hear this year where a pure acousmatic ambition mingles with politics and p-funk. Fang Bomb has previously released his previous two solo albums, Panoptic (2009) and The Other (2014) and two albums…
Moscou Aller Retour
An imaginary train journey between Bologna and Moscow. The original recording of the entire experimental electronic session performed at the audiovisual festival "Geometry of Now," Moscow (2017) curated by Mark Fell, reworked in Bologna (Italy) with custom analog equipment in 2022.
Alexei Borisov, the Moscow underground legend who has spanned new wave, electronic noise and constructivist experimentation, measures up with artist and curator Sergey Kasich, a sound and media artist originally from …
Downwelling
*2023 repress. 300 copies limited edition* Following Not Waving's stellar recent recordings with Jim O'Rourke, Colin Potter, and Jay Glass Dubs, Downwelling finds him in a striking Pas de deux with alternative rock god Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees, QOTSA). It's one of those rare link-ups that truly transcends the sum of its parts, with Not Waving's rolling range of nuanced electronics acting as backdrops for Lanegan's smoky baritone storytelling. Delivered in a husky but pliable voice that has …
Palazzo
Domotic − the alias used by musician Stéphane Laporte − composed and mixed this new album, Palazzo, at the invitation of Ina GRM, and it is a wonderful addition to a career full of projects and numerous releases. Recorded with his favorite analog synth, the SH01, his four-track MT4X and a Copicat tape echo unit, this electronic piece was subsequently mixed in binaural and stereo
In C Pour 11 Oscillateurs Et 53 Formes
Julien Sénélas, Jérôme Vassereau and Soia present a new version of "In C", Terry Riley's seminal work: a musical interpretation with two modular synthesizers (11 oscillators) and a graphic interpretation of the original score.
Mastice
*Edition of 100 numbered copies * Fabrizio Testa (Milan 1981) is an Italian musician and experimenter. His records are often a bizarre juxtaposition of different kinds chewed and vomited and finally transformed into "other" music. "Even the stylistic choice of the artwork - a precious and limited homemade cloth bag with a button and cd-r inside - speaks of a lateral approach to the already subterranean dynamics of reference. Stuff (almost) homemade for an intimate, careful, in-depth dimension of…
Unknowable Determinism
Konrad Zuse, who built the first programmable computer (the Z3, in 1941), suggested that the universe is a computer: underlying the known laws of physics is an algorithmic system like a cellular automaton whose computational output is the matter and energy that make up the universe. In this theory, the world is computed through the interaction of billions of simple elements, and the directional time and 3D space that we experience are emergent properties of this computation. The computation is d…
The Devil's Interval (Alienation)
A visionary artefact from the mind of Steven Stapleton under the guise of Nurse With Wound, drawing some of the best of the project's recent output back into the light, Vasopressin delivers the first ever vinyl edition of "The Devil's Interval (Alienation)", comprising two stunning works of minimal, atmospheric experimentalism, that stand among the most striking and immersive to ever have been created by the project. A stunning and radical rethinking of the terms of ambient music, responding to …
Anonymous Sextet For Perverted Piano
Ben Glas (b. 1992) is an experiential composer based in Berlin. Through ephemeral compositions Glas' work questions preconceived notions between the acts of passive hearing and active listening. In seeking to discover open ended forms of music and pragmatic listening perspectives, Glas' compositions focus on the realms of subjective perception and cognition, via the use of acoustics, psychoacoustics and space as tools for sonic composition.His work has been exhibited and performed internationall…

Karlsbad
Thrilled to announce the reissue of Nikolaus Utermöhlen’s ‘Karlsbad’ album, originally released in 1989. Utermöhlen was a founding member of Die Tödliche Doris and this is his sole solo release. A collection of 23 witty oddball compositions for clarinet, accordion, percussion, recorder, violin, guitar, organ. It definitely has a Doris dose but even more so it shines for its totally singular mélange of tribal dada chamber folk, dilettante dissonant poetry, hard to compare with anything else. A sl…
