Ste Cy
Ste Cy, the latest studio offering from the trio of Jac Berrocal, Vincent Epplay, and Timo van Luijk, ripens like a forbidden fruit—born of an improvised instrumental session captured in the secluded hush of Kulta Saha by Timo van Luijk.These raw recordings were later reshaped into 12 songs by Vincent Epplay at Studio Villejuif in Paris. And over it all drifts the poetry of Jac Berrocal - sensual and incendiary, seeping into the music like spice into flesh.

Dreaming With The Lights On
Tip! You’re approaching the region where gravity feels tampered with; “Dreaming With The Lights On” is to drift into a zone where bodies and objects appear to have slipped into a dream’s editing room and reassembled themselves according to priorities still unfamiliar. The music begins long before the sound does—inside a suspended brightness, a sky that hums with the possibility of transformation. The listener’s mind becomes a surface onto which impossible gestures imprint themselves: limbs blend…
Syrena:re
Syrena:re is a concept programme by Ania Karpowicz and Dominik Strycharski for two flutists and tape. It reinvents and recycles musical motifs released on vinyl by the iconic Syrena Rekord label in pre-war Warsaw. The tape features poignant voices of synagogue cantors, fragments of popular songs, and blended sounds of the Shmul Weinberg orchestra. By using extended techniques and a variety of flutes representing diverse timbres, the artists combine the work of memory with unconstrained improvisa…
Live Bahdu
Legendary saxophonist Don Dietrich and his powerhouse cellist daughter Camille Dietrich collide in Live Bahdu, a fierce musical union that music critic Byron Coley hails as “sheer wailing sonic pleasure.” Don, an untamed force who has spent over forty years shaping the explosive core of Borbetomagus, unleashes a volatile, lung-shaking roar, an unyielding take no prisoners wall of sound. Camille answers with her own ferocity, channeling raw, electric intensity through the disciplined edge of her …
The eerie glow of jellyfish
LDL brings together soprano saxophone, amplified spinet and analog synthesizer in a finely balanced exchange of precision and volatility. Drawing from deep roots in European free improvisation and contemporary music, their music unfolds as a dense, hyper-attentive dialogue where structure and spontaneity are in constant negotiation
Spark Gap
Birgit Ulher and Nicolas Collins are pleased to announce the release of Spark Gap, the first record of their ongoing duo project. Two trumpets, two different approaches: one electronic, the other acoustic. While Collins programmed a computer to imitate hacked circuits and wired to a speaker inside the instrument, Ulher uses metal sheets, radios, milk frothers and other everyday objects to extend her sound palette from brass to silicon. The opposed approaches yield oddly similar sonic results.
Mnemonist Orchestra
Mnemonists, on the first album called Mnemonist Orchestra, is U.S collective of avant-garde musicians from Colorado, led by Mark Derbyshire and William Sharp. Their music is a mixture of modern classical, experimental sounds, noise, industrial, avant-garde and free jazz. Their releases were published by their own self-produced label Dys between 1981 and 1986. By 1985 the group had split off into separate groups for visual and audio work. From that time, Mnemonists operated only as a visual arts …
Solo 3

Silence is a Sharpened Blade / Ashes / The End Site / A Pearl in the Jaw / Flautas Ahogadas para Jacobo Grinberg
*75 copies limited edition*
DNZ122 Drew Wesely – Silence is a Sharpened Blade
Silence is a Sharpened Blade speaks in the language of materiality — a stripped bare mantra of nylon and wood conjures unspoken and veiled interiors, channeling the intimacy of a single guitar alone in a room. Silence is a mirror, a shadow, an absence. It speaks when words fail in the poetry of negative numbers. Where do we go when the lights burn out? What is beauty in hell? What can pierce a heart of stone? Silence i…
We Fell In Turn
* Limited edition 180 gram solid orange coloured vinyl. 2020 Stock * This 1961 Impulse album was particularly notable for Coltrane’s use of the ex- panded sound provided by a ‘big band’ with trumpets, trombone, baritone sax, Eric Dolphy’s bass clarinet and flute, and (most unusually) French horns, euphonium and tuba. Overlaying this backing is one of Coltrane’s great quartets with Messrs. Tyner (who, with Dolphy, did the arranging), Workman and Jones. The album’s centrepiece is the extended Colt…
Schwarzkopf
*100 copies limited edition* Bolka is known as the man with the cap. His cap has lived through a lot: his glitchy and microtonal experiments, studies at Institute of Sonology in The Hague or through countless performative works. A few years ago, Bolka’s cap fell apart. By that time he was already a fixture on the slovak experimental scene, but only releasing his debut album, “smutné stropy.” He started wearing new caps from then: somehow reminiscent of the old one, but much more varied — same as…
Hallitusvastane Puhastus
Are sounds what you perceive? Are the meanings of sound determined by your cultural environment? Is it noise? Is it art? Or just rock n roll (and you like it, yes you do)?
Estonian/American duo Bad Groupy joined the Finnish duo Pink Twins in their Helsinki studio for a recording session in July 2023. Utilizing synthesizers, pedals, tapes, field recordings, and found objects, the double duos dived straight into making a monolith of psychedelic sound, playing until the recording computer crashed.

Murmurations
*2026 stock* Murmurations is an interplay of sonic posibilities between flute and drum. Focused on subtle musical events that come from flute timbres that react on drum skin Taiga explores the realm of low volumes on their respective instruments and creates stories inspired by nature.
