Loss
*170 copies limited edition* "Between September and November of 2024, I turned to sonic art making to cope with personal grief and to reestablish a sense of purpose after a family loss. Like a ritual, I developed a weekday routine, working in my studio from 1:30 to 5:30 PM consisting of field recording and improvisation with sine waves and objects. From this material, I composed six pieces that emphasize continuity and repetition, drawing on coarse, low, and deep resonances to embody the rituali…

Algol

Millesuoni
In Millesuoni, Deleuze Guattari e la musica elettronica (2008), Emanuele Quinz distills some of the key ideas on the nature of sound formulated by Deleuze and Guattari over the course of their work. Central among them is the dynamic of territorialization and deterritorialization—a strategy of appropriation and subsequent release, activated in the alternation between refrain and music.
A child humming alone to ward off the fear of the dark is engaging in a process of territorialization, marking a…
Automation Studies Volume 1
This triple disc release documents Stefan Goldmann's earliest electroacoustic works. These clear-cut algorithmic compositions, mostly created between 1999 and 2001, were built entirely with the TC Fireworx processor's internal synthesizer and effects. Generated and recorded anew for this release with the original programs, a central component of Stefan Goldmann's sound aesthetic is revisited and becomes available in pure form for the first time. His proprietary Fireworx algorithms feature pr…
Repercussions
On Repercussions, Kakuhan and Adam Golebiewski tangle sampler, cello and hyper-physical percussion into a 10-part suite of splintered rhythm and scraped resonance, a hallucinatory electroacoustic organism that keeps mutating between dance impulse, free improv and liquefied drone.
Midnight
Clarity, more often than not, is a lie, a red herring. Truer, it seems, are blurred images and misty conceptions. Music history as a whole is undecipherable. Zooming in may bring some sense of understanding but many lineages lie far beneath the surface, made of obscure stories and oblique connections, like the ones that tie Joan La Barbara, Meredith Monk, Robert Ashley & Jacqueline Humbert - a scrawny branch in the genealogical tree on which now sits Thelma Cappello. Its motto reads: “voice is a…
Tone Keepers
How good does it feel to pull back from time to time? To really shed excess, more-ness, and follow a single path with intention? The exploration of one thing can illuminate corners of the world overlooked by minds pushed in increasingly omnidirectional cycles of want. Tone Keepers is a collection of four compositions by flutist, composer, and sound artist Rachel Beetz that follow a straight line into unexpected territory. Each piece revolves around a simple but inventive technique for generating…
Einde Were
*100 copies limited edition* ‘Einde Were’ is the debut solo album by guitarist Nicolas Van Belle, recorded in late 2024 at Zinnema in Brussels. It will be released as KR007 on Klankhaven Records on vinyl, accompanied by a booklet of texts. At its core a mourning record, the central theme of this album is as old as time itself: the existential crisis that follows a breakup, loss, and/or farewell. Nicolas Van Belle transforms this universal aspect of life into a ten-part musical epitome, in which …
Fata Morgana
On their new album Fata Morgana, an illusory trip of emotion and confrontation, Belgian duo schntzl conjure mirages of fleeting realities while diving headfirst into a trance-driven, confrontational digital sound. Fata Morgana unfolds like a hyper-visual journey, constructing enveloping dreamworlds through trance-infused live electronica. Yet trance here is present not in form but in essence—an intensity, a state of being. It may stir the same emotions as club music, but schntzl express them in …
Material (LP)

In Material, words reach for the image, sounds reach for the word, and one thing becomes another. The result is an intimate, tactile …
Espaces Inhabitables / Démeures Acquatiques / Medisances / Variations en Etoile / Capture Ephémère (2 reel-to reel tapes)
Amazing find: two reel to reel tapes with electro-acoustic compositions from 1967-1969 made at GRM (apparently by Bernard Parmegiani) and destined to be used for public or private listening, coming from composer Franca Sacchi's archive of tapes for her listening sessions in Milano around 1969/1970. With cyclostyled/typewritten notes about the pieces and the composers.

Known for his atmospheric compositions with Bing & Ruth, as well as his collaborations with guitarist Steve Gunn and Cowboy Sadness, this marks Moore’s first widely shared solo piano album. Using the piano to meditatively inquire into the human condition, Graze the Bell is a sanctuary of sound, and an invitation for listeners to meet him in the presen…
Santur & Kamancheh for Electronics
In this collaboration, Maryam Rahmani and David Esser investigate the sonic and expressive potential of the Santur and Kamancheh beyond the frameworks that traditionally define them. Both instruments, central to the language of Iranian classical music, are repositioned within a new constellation where inherited structures meet contemporary sound practices. Tradition and modernity are not treated as opposing forces but as interwoven layers within a shared field of resonance, a dynamic that rarely…
The Third Mind. A Sonic Tribute to the Dreamachine
On The Third Mind. A Sonic Tribute to the Dreamachine, a constellation of contemporary artists tune themselves to the flicker-frequency of Brion Gysin and William S. Burroughs. Hypnotic loops, drone hallucinations and cut-up sonics seek not to illustrate the Dreamachine, but to let it hear itself thinking.
Zonal Disturbances III
The next installment in Dirk Serries’ “” cycle. As with the previous chapter, the musician recorded material using electric guitar coupled with numerous effects. He recorded four more longer compositions that further develop Dirk’s direction, constructing his signature ambient style. Organic, somber, and eerie. The entire piece was also recorded live, in a single space, resulting in music that reveals the artist’s penchant for minimalism and slow, repetitive sound clusters, thus drawing on his r…
