Sobbing Honey & Anna Homler
Sobbing Honey & Anna Homler brings together Sobbing Honey—an emergent force in LA’s experimental underground—and the legendary vocal sound artist Anna Homler. Through a sequence of improvisational, ritual-inflected tracks, the collaboration dissolves conventional boundaries, weaving extended voice, electronics, and found instruments into rarefied, playful atmospheres that embrace both textural mystery and tactile joy.
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 …
For a Moment the Sky Knew My Name
For a Moment the Sky Knew My Name is the forthcoming solo album by Peter Knight, released through Lawrence English’s Room40 label. Written and recorded partly outdoors on Krowathunkooloong land in southeastern Australia—a landscape tied to Knight’s childhood—the album merges field recordings, trumpet, and live electronic processing to construct an evocative meditation on environment, memory, and belonging. Across four expansive compositions, the trumpeter’s tones intertwine with insects, wind, a…
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…
The Language Shadow
Reissue of the very limited debut LP by this Massachusetts-based musician. We first ran into Kass's Good Cry label when she put out Jordan Perry's eponymous debut, which we promptly reissued (FTR 376LP). And we are well pleased to be able to do the same for The Language Shadow -- a most excellent album by all known metrics. Kass (who works with Meg Remy's U.S. Girls) sings and plays guitar, dulcimer and small instrument-style percussion. Recorded at Montreal's Hotel2Tango, her music has the clea…
Elvehjem
Recorded in Madison Wisconsin a year after In The River, the latest record from this amazing trio (Troy Schafer, Patrick Best, Mikel Dimmick) breaks a bit with Spiral Joy's drone-dominant tradition. There is a crackling, noise energy curtain surrounding much of the playing here that makes me remember the sound of the Richmond VA trio, Pelt, from whom Spiral Joy Band draw specific inspiration (as well as two members). The listed instruments are bowed gong, gong, bowed bowls, electric guitar, bowe…
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.
Briars On A Dewdrop
Turner Williams Jr is a string-player out of the same Alabama surrealist scene that gave us Rev. Fred Lane & the Say Day Bew gang, Davey Williams & LaDonna Smith’s Trans Museq universe, and the Sweet Wreath madmen (who have been working with Johnny Coley, Silica Gel and others). Some crazy shit has gone on down there, and Mr. Williams soaked it all in before heading up to NYC, where he fell in with some of the Sound @ One scene. Which added another layer to the freak potential of his playing. Af…
Smelter
Smelter by Faith Coloccia and Daniel Menche constructs a temporal architecture that explores water in its myriad states—snow, ice, streams, and storm. Moving between spontaneous, voice-laced vignettes and epic drone formations, the record serves as an aural archive that suspends the listener in crystalline moments, as if each piece is fixed in time yet endlessly malleable.
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.
The Oracle
Big tip! Acclaimed New York-based composer Lea Bertucci offers The Oracle, a striking, vocal-focused collection of music that spans six tracks of adventurous sounds steeped in mysticism and imagination, over three years in the making. Her first purely solo endeavor since 2021’s much lauded A Visible Length of Light (Cibachrome Editions), The Oracle breaks new ground within the scope of Bertucci’s singular voice as an artist.
The Oracle is an alchemy of contemporary political anxieties illuminated…
Steelwound (20th Anniversary Edition)
"If I’m not mistaken, Ben Frost and I first talked about the ideas of what would become Steelwound sometime in mid 2002. In the early 00s, Ben had been working on cut-up electronics, spilling over with floating rhythms, humming string samples and piano splices. It was a sound realised in part through the subversion of fruity loops and also owes a debt to Ableton Live which arrived in late 2001. His works to that point, gently saturated and bristling with a fizzy distortion at times, hinted at an…
Within Without
"I first owned a fender rhodes electric piano in the late 1970s. It was a Mark 1 model (wooden key action). I had a band with my younger brother and my best friend from school and this was my ‘portable’ gigging instrument that weighed ‘a ton,’ and only just fitted in our small car. (I eventually got smart and left the 15 kg lid at home.) I had one effects pedal, a Boss chorus. Sadly—due to the rise of synthesisers and electronic keyboard instruments—I sold this lovely instrument in the late 1980…
It Deel IV
*300 copies limited edition* Poetry and music in an annually changing Frisian-international ensemble — that’s It Deel, a residency project by the Kleefstra brothers. After three previous sessions and releases with Jacaszek, Eivind Lønning & Espen Reinertsen, and Karen Willems, this beautiful project finds its conclusion with a fourth collaboration. In the summer of 2024, the Kleefstras invited cellist Joana Guerra and violinist Maria do Mar de Brito Lopes for a week-long creative residency at a …
Running around the Crape Myrtles
Edition of 50 copies. Solo recording by Hideaki Shimada, he also records under the name of Agencement, on several instruments like violin, viola, cello, piano and electronics. In the past he collaborated with Sabu Toyozumi, John Russell, Adam Bohman, Merzbow and countless others. A dive into the netherworld of sapphire acoustic improvisations and fly-by-night electronics.
autoReverse
Edition of 70 copies. Another magical stream of consciousness by Ramuntcho Matta on guitar, synth, vocals etc. A spaced out travelogue to the inner circle of the deep diamond through gaps of gaseous walls and flickering transluscent doors with intuitive speech patterns played backwards. Matta’s playful wizardry has illuminated many minds like Brion Gysin, Don Cherry and Eli Medeiros
Zen Experience in Music
Edition of 70 copies. Atmospheric home recordings by conservatoire deviant Valentina Goncharova on electric violin. Tuned and detuned augurs, like bird flights somewhere between written music and improvisation absorbed by waves of meditation echoing Takehisa Kosugi and Tony Conrad reflections in the aether of the zen garden's mind mirror.
Tantric Song Lines: A Hybrid Sutra
Edition of 50 copies. A magical reading from Marilyn Stablein’s recent book Tantric Song Lines: A Hybrid Sutra (Shivastan Press, 2024) which is derived from an ongoing series of poetic spoken, chanted, written and visual narratives that document and celebrate a seven year sojourn in and around the Himalayas to honor cultural, historical, ritual, geographical, environmental and time and place based encounters with people, animals, habitats, myths and spirits who populate those off the grid ancien…
Nidarosdomen
At the heart of Trondheim rises Nidarosdomen: Scandinavia’s great cathedral, the northernmost Gothic monument of the Middle Ages, built upon the resting place of Saint Olav. Within its stone walls breathes the colossal Steinmeyer organ, 9,600 pipes of air and thunder. A space made not only for prayer, but for ritual. When Yodok III was invited to perform in this sacred colossus, the idea of summoning Petra Bjørkhaug to the Steinmeyer organ arrived like an inevitability. To let the cathedral itse…
Elemental View
Few contemporary composers have created instruments as singular as Ellen Fullman's Long String Instrument, and fewer still have explored its possibilities with the depth and invention documented on Elemental View. This six-movement work, performed in collaboration with The Living Earth Show, transforms an industrial-sized space into a resonating chamber where 136 precisely tuned strings create what can only be described as environmental music in its most literal sense. Fullman has spent decades …
