Electronic Music
*2024 stock* This album recorded in 1967 by the Electronic Music Studio (EMS) of the University of Toronto exemplifies early experimentations in electronic music. It was the first studio of its kind in Canada (founded by Dr Arnold Walter) and the second in the North American Continent. The abstract songs are eerily captivating. Liner notes include explanations of how the songs were created, as well as biographical information on the members of the EMS.

*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "It all began with a little red tongue sticking out of an unseen mouth and licking its way in the dark. Hesitating at first, then sparkling and crackling and all of a sudden bursting out in total, u-n-c-o-n-t-r-o-l-l-a-b-l-e freedom."

Amaro
*2024 stock. 250 copies limited edition* Montreal-based electroacoustic composer Jeremy Young's new record is more like a suite of meaningful multi-disciplinary duets than an addition to his growing catalog of pure solo material. Yet it centrally documents an iterative, systems-based approach to making music that Young has been developing and refining through live performances and improvisations in his studio for close to 3 years. This sonic "system" is not modular but still tactile, performable…
Nations Of I
*2024 stock. 250 copies limited edition* The music on this album sprang out of my work for the Magam project and consists of 3 suites –2 of which have, in earlier stages, been used for a butoh and a dance performance respectively– that cover the distance from aleatoric to improvised to composed music... What I like most about it is its playfulness.
The album title was initially inspired by Kurt Vonnegut's concept of "a nation of two" (in "Mother Night", 1962):“[...] 𝘢 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴…

Tam Tikri Objektai Erdvèje
Sam Gendel and Ugnė Uma's Tam Tikri Objektai Erdvėje album sketches a layered, melismatic and intertextual view on what both performers define as a lightness of being. Ugnė Uma's musical stance is influenced by experimental poetry and Lithuania's 20th century underground music scene - jazz and folk, resulting from the liberation of the country's independence movements. Sam Gendel, from Los Angeles, is a saxophonist and producer, proficient on more instruments than the saxophone alone, whose reco…
Vhoysee
The first Manon Anne Gillis release was a single-sided mini-album titled “Angebiguë”, which was Manon’s self-release in 1983. “Angebiguë” was 6-track mini-album in a cold-minimal-synth vein, and any track from “Angebiguë” were not included in her retrospective 5CD Box “Archives Box 1983-2005”, which Art into Life released in 2015. “Angebiguë” was privately released in tiny edition for her friends only and has been a highly sought-after item among collectors. “Vhoysee” is Manon’s long-awaited new…
Scompaio
"Delmore FX (moniker of poet and artist Elia Buletti) is a purveyor and craftsman of avant-world and post-world sounds. His sophisticated but straightforward electroacoustic language made of experimental novelty and folkloric ancientness has the oblique capacity of making one listen, dance and think astray at once. "Scompaio" (I disappear) is the new full length work by Das Andere Selbst label’s bright spark. Built around the mundane but magic disappearance of shapes, things and beings alike in …

His artistic prowess extends beyond the sonic realm, encompassing an impeccable sense of design and a deep appreciation for materials.

Message
Tip! *Limited edition of 199 copies. White vinyl 2023 repress* Grim is the one-man project of Jun Konagaya - formed from the ashes of White Hospital, his legendary early 1980s noise duo with Tomosada Kuwahara - which, accepting a long hiatus in the middle, has bridged the worlds of industrial music, power electronics, and noise for nearly three decades. Belonging roughly to the first wave of Japanese noise, Konagaya is particularly noteworthy among his peers for casting an eye further afield, dr…
Audience
A group of people is looking back on a collective experience, unsure if they were part of this situation or merely outside spectators. While they talk them selves through the event, one starts to mutate as different objects in the environment starts to behave in strange ways. Then the space suddenly completely transforms, and they start to realise how everything in this reality has a changeable and rather diffuse nature. Performed by Karis Zidore, Miriam Kongstad, Jakob Littauer, Cæcilie Trier, …

Microstorie
*Limited Edition* Far from the brightest spots in the hype system, hailing from the western genovese area, St.Ride is an eclectic duo, experimenting obscure, disturbing and twisted sides of electronic/ambient music since 2001.There's an irrational stream of consciousness, a free flow between the acid beats and the cold and distant synth pads, and actually we can say that the band composed by Maurizio Gusmerini and Edo Grandi has many ways and languages to underline the disintegration of the song…
