*2026 stock. 60 copies limited edition* Sometimes it takes a moment of stillness and silence to discover a new direction. Midday marks a subtle shift from my earlier ambient work, leaning toward more structured compositions, minimal melodic fragments, soft pulses, and loops. I wrote midday between December 2024 and March 2025, taking inspiration from Sunday outings that carried a sense of calm that lingered. I took the album artwork during one of these outings, while I was picking oranges in the…

*100 copies limited edition* Tsss Tapes presents Slani pejza​ž​i by the trio formed by Manja Ristic (Serbia), Joana Guerra (Portugal) and Verónica Cerrotta (Argentina).

*60 copies limited edition* A percussion-and-synthesizer duo by Paper Cuts, a Polish duo made up of Wojtek Kurek and Łukasz of Bouchons d’Oreilles—something like chopped-up techno.

Holy Tongue are a trio composed of Valentina Magaletti, Susumu Mukai, and Al Wootton. Accomplished musicians in their own right, they create expansive rhythmic music that moves freely through dub, trance, post-punk, free improvisation and cinematic psychedelia. Such a dynamic energy and force is mapped across a trilogy of critically acclaimed EPs, their debut album Deliverance and Spiritual Warfare and their collaborative album with dub-pioneer Shackleton. The trio recorded a series of improvisa…

*200 copies limited edition* In anticipation of the career-spanning box set 'The Shadow Ring: 1992–2002,' Blank Forms is releasing Live on KFJC, a freshly-exhumed live radio set from 1996 documenting the riotous Folkestone band in a full-form, expanded lineup—a perfect stocking-stuffer for any beloved malcontent. Recorded in London shortly after 'Waxwork Echoes' (Corpus Hermeticum, 1996), the limited-edition cassette captures Graham Lambkin, Darren Harris, and the newly-joined Tim Goss as they b…

Three distinct musical voices come together on Crapaud, a new album by Tazio Caputo, Lucas Gaudin and Matías Riquelme. The record invites listeners into a world shaped by exchange, curiosity and the possibilities that emerge when artists create together. Rather than following a single path, Crapaud unfolds as a meeting place: a space for ideas to take shape, shift and find unexpected connections. Its title sets the tone for an album that feels open to discovery—one that rewards close listening w…

*Coming in a hand made & screen printed box* Hey, did I ever tell you about that time when things are going ok. When the music is never over, and stars are crushing down on you. Since I was little, I come to this music store every chance I got. I sneak in through the alley. I still make this trip a lot. Some weeks ago, during a trip, they played this “A Mistake by Mistakes” cassette tape compilation, out on that enigmatic Berlin, Neukölln based label Kashual Plastik. Sick folk-not-folk-modern-fo…

Mail collaboration for electronics, violin, and audio letters.

One of the greatest sonic masterpieces of the '80s - long championed by Jim O'Rourke and foreshadowing the work of an entire generation of experimental electronic music that emerged during the 1990s - Christian Fennesz, Oval, Mouse on Mars, Microstoria, C-Schulz, Mountains, and Oren Ambarchi - we're thrilled to offer an essential repress of Nuno Canavarro's visionary LP, Plux Quba, via the venerable Drag City. Originally appearing from the shadows of the mysterious vanguard of Portuguese music i…

*In process of stocking. Limited edition of 200 copies.* The first volume in an ongoing collaboration between composers Kenneth Kirschner and Joseph Branciforte, From the Machine explores the application of software-based compositional techniques — including algorithmic processes, generative systems, and indeterminacy — to the creation of new music for acoustic instruments.

*150 copies limited edition* After 8 years since their last release, Becoming Forest is the fifth full-length record by Amuleto.

Faitiche presents the release of a new album by Masayoshi Fujita & Jan Jelinek (faitiche13). Since their debut (Bird, Lake, Objects, faitiche03, 2010) they have played improvised concerts around the world. Japanese vibraphonist Masayoshi Fujita prepares his instrument with various percussion elements as well as metal objects and toys, while Jan Jelinek layers loops made using small-scale electronic devices. Schaum (German for froth, foam) is the duo's second album. "The river, forcing its way th…

Sucata Tapes and Annihaya proudly present Delia, the hypnotic new album by Munda (Selu Herraiz), following up on foundational explorations of ritual and territorial memory. Recorded in September 2021 during a residency at Konvent—an old convent set within an abandoned industrial colony in Cal Rosal, deep in the lower Catalan Pyrenees—Delia is forged from the physical ghosts of a former textile factory. Within high ceilings, terracotta floors, and walls vibrating with low frequencies, Herraiz cap…

A tenth of a second of an Alpine ibex's whistle, stretched by algorithms to two long sides of glitch, spectral drift and granular grain: the first solo LP by Berlin cellist and sound artist Tilman Kanitz.

*100 copies limited edition* It was the spot—where you'd meet up with friends or bump into strangers. Walls covered with deteriorated posters and endless spray-paint conversations. A friendly face in a city suffering from an obsessive-compulsive cleaning disorder. I would stare at those walls, wondering what was behind them, yet there were no doors, no windows, no way to get in. Now it's all open: a stretch of yellow gravel, a wasteland that still feels strangely alive despite being practically …

Huge Tip! * Limited edition of 300 copies, Embossed cover, comes with insert and postcard * Killer record here! Three Italian heavyweights doing what they do best - radical improvisation that sits somewhere between electronics, silence, and pure Mediterranean mystery. This is the real deal. Nicola Ratti, Alessandra Novaga, and Enrico Malatesta - three names you need to know if you're serious about contemporary improvised music. The sound? Imagine if AMM had been born in Southern Europe with lapt…

Huuuuge Tip! * Limited edition of 200 copies, comes with insert *  La Festa delle Rane (literally the frog's party) are one of the most singular outputs from the vibrant Italian underground community of the last couple of years. Innocent, at times flawed, full of candour and tenderness and just enough spice to make things take a grandiose detour into the eerie and unsettling. Il lago è il cielo del bosco e tutte le rane cantano in coro originally released on tape for Ruego in 2022 and now remast…

Aunes is a rare solo album from peripatetic Australian cellist-composer-performer Judith Hamann, presenting six pieces recorded across several years and countries. Developing the collage techniques and expanded sound palettes heard on their previous releases, Aunes makes use of synthesizers, organ, voice and location recordings alongside the dazzlingly pure, enveloping tones of Hamann’s cello. The record takes its name from an old French unit of measurement for fabric, varying around the country…

On Music for Intersecting Planes, Kali Malone and Leila Bordreuil braid organ, cello, sine waves and feedback into a candlelit nocturne of air and overtones, an austere yet tender ritual where space itself becomes a third instrument.

*50 copies limited edition* Even for a prolific artist such as Delphine Dora, 2026 is a very busy year with the release of three albums already before the end of April; the harmonium and vocal improvisations of ‘D’une nostalgie inconnue’ on Akti, the impressionistic piano and keyboard instrumentals of ‘L’ineluctable du temps’ on Marionette and the church organ explorations of ‘Vents d’aether’ made in collaboration with Jérôme Bouve for Hallow Ground. ‘La lune’ is another impressive addition to D…

The astounding second outing from the duo of Midori Takada & Jakob Bro, arriving on Copenhagen's Loveland Records just under a year after 'Until I Met You'. Across six tracks, subtle abstraction amongst sprawling ambiences, "Fourth-World" sensibilities, and pulsing minimalism. CD edition.

First reissue of the Norwegian percussionist's debut, recorded in 1981 at Henie Onstad Kunstsenter: vibraphone, marimba, bells and synths over environmental recordings, between Midori Takada and Fourth World.

Split Sous-Terrain: Mårble, Dolphin Hospital and Tourbière recorded live at the AAE cave on December 20, 2025, four parts of experimental live electronics. Limited edition tape on Nazlo Records.

*200 copies limited edition* Two beautiful pieces merging piano, electronics and field recordings. "you had that uncertain landscape / in your mouth / a slightly opaque breath / chewing distances / into the ear of a land still without a name / the morning had settled askew / on the slow stones / and the motionless grasses / everything seemed to be waiting / for something very ancient / that never quite arrived / on my side / i had filled my pocket with silence / and repeated several times / what…

*100 copies limited edition* Recorded on April 7, 2025 at Studio H in Beijing. Mix, mastering, recording and cover design by Jason Kahn. Many thanks to Zhu Wenbo and Yan Jun for all their work in making my tour through China and this recording possible.

Two unreleased late works by Pierre Henry for his centenary: Variance (2005), a fugal homage to Luc Ferrari, and Duo (2003), a gestural rhapsody for feedback and piano dedicated to Maurice Béjart. Licensed from Studio Son/Ré.

Wil Bolton’s forthcoming album, Strewn with Crimson, is an evocative sonic portrait of East London’s Lea Valley. Shaped by the region's wetlands, marshes, and industrial edgelands, the project weaves together site-specific field recordings, found objects, modular synthesis, and processed acoustic instruments. The album’s title draws inspiration from the wild poppy and herb-robert flowers growing across derelict Victorian filter beds, symbolising a complex landscape where rich biodiversity and ec…
