Various Small Whistles and a Song
*200 copies limited edition* Various Small Whistles and a Song, the new album by Chicago-based artist Lia Kohl, incorporates notions of space, social relations, and humor. As the title suggests, the album responds to Ed Ruscha’s 1964 photographic artist book Various Small Fires and Milk, which Kohl sees as a wondrous celebration of ordinariness, one that reveals Ruscha’s trademark deadpan humor and depth. In the spirit of that publication, Kohl created her own series of sonic vignettes, with gue…
Disillusioned!
Mitar Subotić Suba (Rex Ilusivii) was one of the most prominent ex-Yugoslav producers and sound artists. His work encompassed not only successful production on some of the cult ex-Yugoslav records, but also works in the field of music for theatre, experimental electronic music, and installations. After moving to Brazil in the 1990s, he further explored his interest in local culture and released his essential work "São Paulo Confessions". Almost at the same time, he produced "Tanto Tempo", a semi…

Retinal Rivalry
Retinal Rivalry is the soundtrack to Cyprien Gaillard’s new stereoscopic film, Retinal Rivalry (2024). It is an entrancing journey through Germany’s urban landscape and its layers of historical and social significance. Building on his previous exploration of the sculptural qualities of three-dimensional moving images, the work extends beyond the confines of the screen. By harnessing cutting-edge technology to its full potential, Gaillard offers an expanded, sharpened and deeply affecting novel v…
Through The Wall
A trickle of audio fragments exchanged between two locked down bedrooms becomes a flood of sound, emotion and connection.
Pathopoeia/Tomba Emmanuelle
*200 copies limited edition* "Opposite directions, two different places, other means of expression—and the same extraordinary sensitivity with which Rożynek guides her sonic narrative. Two acousmonia, in which sound gradually gains vibration and density, finally blooming open and unfolding straight towards us. Pathopoeia is a term borrowed from the theory of rhetorical figures used in Baroque music—codified melodic progressions with specific assigned meanings. This figure leads sounds downward, …

Whistle and I'll Come To You
Whistle and I’ll Come To You by Death and Vanilla is an evanescent, cinematic dream-pop companion to the cult 1968 BBC ghost story film. Through shimmering synths, vibraphone, and spectral loops, the Malmö trio crafts an atmospheric journey where hauntology, vintage electronics, and melancholy motif intertwine, conjuring equal parts nostalgia and spectral unease.
The Yellow Box
As trans-Atlantic alchemists pulling from a shared dialectic that somehow encompassed both postmodern deconstructionist tendencies and a delightfully subversive sense of poptimism, it’s easy to see how David Cunningham and Peter Gordon immediately hit it off upon initially meeting each other back in the late-1970s at the height of their youthful transgressions. Having initially worked together on the second Flying Lizards’ LP fourth wall, with its ingenious fusion of dismantled rhythms and rearr…
Star Dream FM
Dylan Henner’s album "Star Dream FM" is an experimental ambient suite woven from choral textures, marimba, processed voice, and impressionistic electronics. Presented as a fictional radio transmission of Henner’s adolescence, its 41 minutes blend memory and invention, immersing listeners in shimmering sonic vignettes that blur the boundaries between personal nostalgia and collective dream.
Mirante
Mirante, the ninth album by Nick Storring, is an impressionistic, multi-instrumental homage to Brazil. Across seven movement-rich tracks, Storring weaves liquid ambient textures, intricate rhythms, and a panoply of both Brazilian and experimental influences, forging an album that balances celebratory groove and lush introspection.
In The River
Spiral Joy Band are one of the descendants of Richmond VA's legendary musical juggernaut, Pelt. Active and mutating for nearly 20 years, the iteration of the Spiral Joy Band who recorded this session in Madison Wisconsin in 2011 was a trio. Troy Schafer, Patrick Best and Mikel Dimmick play an array of instruments -- violin, viola, harmonium -- to produce lush tapestries of the multiphonic drones for which they are known. I remember Pelt getting called 'The Hillbilly Theatre of Eternal Music' at …
The Incandescent Switch
First LP, after several fine cassettes & CDRs, by this psych project helmed by Brian Lucas. Lucas is best known these days for his bass work with Dire Wolves Just Exactly Perfect Sisters Band, but he has a hand in many other California psych outfits. The Wolves have been quiet vis-a-vis new recordings lately, but Old Million Eye has been pretty busy. Often the OME moniker represents solo work, but this time Brian has recruited Dena Goldsmith-Stanley (3 Moons) and Steven R Smith (an old band mate…
Standing / Engraving
Standing / Engraving by Jean D.L. is a meditative suite where solo guitar sketches and field recordings fold into a chiaroscuro of memory and texture. Drawing from experimental folk and nocturnal ambient, the album patiently sculpts sound and silence into subtle vignettes, inviting the listener into an immersive domain of reflection and suspended time.
Live at Epsilon Spires
Feeding Tube Records is excited to present the first North American release by this amazing Japanese sound artist. Yosuke Fujita goes by the name FUJI|||||||||||TA, perhaps so he won't be mistaken for the guitarist of the same name who plays with Better Days, or perhaps because he just likes to hear people try to figure out how to say, 'FUJI|||||||||||TA,' properly. Either way, FUJI|||||||||||TA is a wonderful avant-garde project that has been active for almost two decades. In its current iterat…
Samt ar-ra's
Samt ar-ra's by Benjamin Dobó and Dion Monti is an evocative ambient collaboration that serves as a sonic companion to Dobó's film. Crafted between 2020 and 2022, the album moves through delicate textures, atmospheric field recordings, and subtle melodic fragments, inviting listeners to explore intricate emotional landscapes in a work that bridges visual and auditory art.
Mirror at Night
Mirror at Night searches the subconscious: Eric Angelo Bessel sculpts a spectral space where ambient resonance, spectral melody, and time-stretched echoes intermingle. The album pulses with memory and hush, summoning nocturnal images that flicker between clarity and dissolution—a twilight walk across the inner landscape.
Songs for Eventide
*100 copies limited edition* Soundtracks for the edge of day. Visible Light use their instruments to open portals of seasonal consciousness through site-specific recording and real-time composition. Over the past two years, Amy McNally and Matthew Hiram have developed a collaborative practice rooted in earthly attunement, intuitive structure, and place-based sound. Their outdoor listening events have quietly established them as distinct voices in a growing conversation around nature-based music.…
Sans Loup
Ambroos De Schepper and Pepijn Gyssels became roommates when PiP first moved to Brussels in 2021. Both paid close attention to each other’s musical approach and interests. One year later, Ambroos moved out. When he swung by to pick up some boxes, they decided to record something for the fun of it. Between May '23 and November '24 they continued experimenting with textures and improvisations. This collaboration has become the deepening of a friendship and a way to maintain it at the same time.
