Echo of Being / Grace in Rot
Echo of Being / Grace in Rot is a powerful sonic meditation on grief by the duo Neti-Neti, composed of vocalist Amirtha Kidambi and percussionist Matt Evans. The project originated from improvisation sessions born out of personal loss, evolving from an intimate exchange into a practice that bridges the personal and the political.
Songbook
*100 copies limited edition packaged in a thick PVC sleeve with hand printed Japanese woodblock prints on 400g paper and hand stamped credits.* Sacred Realism is pleased to release yet another recording that really could find a home nowhere else. Recorded in January 2021 in Berlin-Spandau, Songbook is a document of dissolving, almost not there, form and the poetic interpretation of shared ghosts (people, instruments, music, and machine). Expressing the music, and other feelings, through a broken…
Aboyer au mauvais arbre
ARBORE is the collaborative project of French-born, Berlin-based artists Diane Barbé and Laure Boer, navigating the wide spectrum of electroacoustics, instrument building and radical improvisation. "Genuinely loose-limbed and exquisitely zonked, Diane Barbé and Laure Boer's ARBORE debut marries electroacoustic sound design to basement psych-folk, where homemade Vietnamese zither, flutes and whistles float around gloopy analog synths like some lost Nate Young plays Folkways record, or the deepest…
Inner Day
For his second solo album, master drummer Jim White travels further into expressionist landscapes of private meditation; his vehicle, an evocative duet of keyboards and drums alongside his debut as a vocalist. Translating his formidable percussive intuitions through this dialogue has given Jim a fresh compositional voice. Inner Day is like a state of nature, evoking peace and tension, rest and disquiet, all aloft on the wind of new discovery.
In March 2024, Jim White released his first-ever solo…
Ambient Koan
Zen Flutist teams with Faust, Troum, and Limpe Fuchs for "Ambient Koan". Viz Michael Kremietz's 16th Album Blends Ancient Buddhist Practice with German Experimental Legends.
Errant Ear, Tutti Frutti (2CD Bundle)
Two masterful explorations of electroacoustic practice that showcase the profound possibilities of the medium - from Ferrari's intimate sonic memoir to Vande Gorne's four-decade spanning artistic statement. Essential listening for anyone interested in the cutting edge of contemporary experimental music.
Brunhild Ferrari - Errant Ear
A stunning new long-form electroacoustic work by the German composer Brunhild Ferrari. Drawing upon sound sources recorded between the 1970s and 2024, with sonic con…
Enter The Misanthropocene
Abhorrent Expanse thrives on contradictions and draws strength from the muddled wastes between firm stylistic distinctions. The group conjures harrowing visions of the descent into true hysteria, abstracting the familiar hallmarks of extreme metal into ancient soliloquies intoned in forgotten tongues. Tectonic grinding, relentless needling, and claustrophobic encapsulation give way to violent flashes, pangs of dripping saturation, and wildly unnerving murmurs. Following the release of their debu…
Trips
Whisker is a duo consisting of modular synthesist Ben Baker Billington and bassist Andrew Scott Young. These are two space cadets who have emerged from the burned-out basements and sweaty lofts of the midwest noise scene to become leading figures in the Chicago music community. Billington has mastered trippertronics under his Quicksails project and provided tactile drum work to the pivotal Chicago industrial collective ONO, while Young’s bass playing has graced records by Ryley Walker, Circuit d…
Gleaners
*2025 stock* Carol Genetti and Peter Maunu’s music might best be described as genre bending, stream of consciousness, improvised spontaneous composition. Drawing on elements from the second Viennese School is as natural and organic as a contrasting modal, folk inspired melody, albeit with a deranged noise accompaniment. Investigations of delicate sounds might be interrupted by abstractions of animal voices. Quick reflexes determine sudden directional shifts, allowing the music to adapt to its ne…
Macrodose
*2025 stock* "Macrodose" marks Bill Harris's third solo record, following "Blinking Glue" (2022) and "Onomat" (2021). Harris's unique approach to solo drumming combines acoustic and electronic elements, utilizing feedback and timbral manipulation to create a distinctive auditory experience. Where Blinking Glue was a single-take, live performance which represented a snapshot of his live solo set, Macrodose returns to a similar format of Onomat, encapsulating shorter sonic spaces in a number of di…
Living in the present
Living in the present is an album built around the work of American minimalist poet, Robert Lax (1915-2000) who is widely praised for his artistic concept of reduction, in which a pause becomes as important as the things said. The album brings together the sound of Robert Lax reading his poetry, narrative field recordings by Nicolas Humbert and subtle yet imaginative timbres by Carina Khorkhordina (trumpet) and Miki Yui (electronics) who is also behind the final mixing of the album.
Living in th…
Monastero
*75 copies limited edition* Emerging from the resonant stillness of a centuries-old monastery, Monastero unfolds as a series of improvised modern compositions — each track a spontaneous dialogue between space and sound. The instrumentation drifts fluidly between structure and abstraction, allowing reverb-soaked tones and percussive textures to breathe and bloom within the natural acoustics of stone walls and vaulted ceilings, giving the music a haunting, sacred dimension.
Gaister
The record captures the embodiment of an encounter, one moment of the trio’s ongoing relationship as artists who communicate with each other through sound, voice and music. After orbiting in the same circles at each other's shows around 2016 in London, Sey and Salvadori eventually crossed paths. In 2017 Sey joined Salvadori’s artistic collective Tutto Questo Sentire on a residency in Capalbio, the southernmost part of Tuscany, Italy, and started working together. Down the line the pair ended up …
Tera Tera
Hyperjazz Records presents the self-titled debut album from Tera Tera, an unexpected collaboration between two visionaries of the Italian music scene. Drummer Jacopo Battaglia, founder of the cult Italian trio Zu and collaborator with Mike Patton and The Bloody Beetroots, joins forces with guitarist Adriano Viterbini, founder of the rising sensation I Hate My Village and collaborator with Rokia Traorè and Bombino. Born from two intense jam sessions of pure improvisation, this album emerged throu…
Travelling At The Speed Of Time
*300 coipes limited edition* Only a clarinet sings – minimal, quivering, wavering. Breathing mad notes in the cracks between notes, weaving a dazed, fuzzy kind of magic. The latest recordings by Museum of No Art are tripping – floating in suspense, somewhere out in the irrational corners of the world inhabited by the haunted elegance of Ben Bertrand or Bernhard Herrmann. But still, entirely her own – a quiet revolt of classical clichés in search of a new dawn for lunatic woodwinds. She sings thr…
Forgetting is Violent
Forgetting is Violent, Patrick Shiroishi’s latest solo LP, is his most immediate release yet, expanding the scope not just of his music but of his extramusical considerations. Where his past releases on American Dreams reckoned with racism against Japanese Americans or presented Shiroishi’s saxophone as heard in a parking garage, Forgetting is Violent considers racism as a whole, historical and ongoing, with the urgency it deserves. Here, for the first time, we hear Shiroishi joined by a support…
Lettres d'amour
Vocalist Linda Oláh and guitarist Giani Caserotto met in 2008 in the innocent infancy of their respective careers. Since then, they have formed the duo Lovers, that plays an electroacoustic music which elegantly maneuvers between several different musical genres: Improvisation, classical music, jazz and pop.
The Oracle
Big tip! *100 copies limited edition* 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 po…
