Recordings from the Åland Islands
In 2017 Jeremiah Chiu & Marta Sofia Honer traveled together to the Åland Islands (an archipelago that is host to around 6,500 islands) in the Baltic Sea between Sweden and Finland. They headed to the islands with the intention of helping two friends (mother/daughter duo Jannika/Sage Reed) barn raise a small inn named Hotel Svala in Kumlinge (a municipality consisting of a small group of islands and a population of about 320). The idea was that, once completed, Svala would host artist residencies…
Lapsikuninkaan Fanfaari
Juho Toivonen's third album navigates memory's fluid terrain through off-key piano, tape loops, and spectral melodies. Featuring Ramo Sinnemäki's trumpet, this Nordic ambient masterwork recalls Basinski while exploring childhood fragments and imagined futures. Pure Scandinavian melancholy—essential contemporary ambient.
Accidental Journey

So, here it is, a big dark tempting audiobook for people with time, Acid Zen citizens, deep listening folks, slow consumers, with a desire for thrill, thrills for desire. A double CD. 40 exclusive contempora…
Remscéla
Milkweed’s new album draws from ‘The Táin’ Irish epic, mixing “Slacker Trad” with global sounds. Critically acclaimed, their music merges Appalachian folk, hauntology, and experimentation.
Itara
Itara is the debut solo album by Paul Pèrrim—guitarist, composer, and anthropologist—blending acid folk, abstract blues, Eastern jazz, ambient, and improvisation. Drawing from ethnomusicology and a rich sonic palette, he crafts vivid, experimental guitar music rooted in tradition and innovation.
Smallest Things
Since 2007, Will Yates—aka Memotone—has made immersive, genre-blurring music. Fusing folk, jazz, British DIY electronica, Chicago post-rock, and Jon Hassell’s ambient brass, his layered sound reflects deep curiosity, technical skill, and a distinctive, place-rooted artistic identity.

Landschaft aus Tränen
The conclusion of a trilogy often reveals as much about artistic evolution as it does about thematic resolution. With “Landschaft aus Tränen”, Brannten Schnüre complete their three-album psychological cycle that began with 2019's “Erinnerungen an Gesichter”, marking both a compositional apex and a deliberate terminus for the project itself. Moving away from their signature “surreal folkcollage” approach, this represents Brannten Schnüre's most structured and emotionally resolved statement to dat…

Despite Tom and Christina Carter’s prolific solo careers and numerous other projects, Charalambides has existed in an unbroken trajectory for over tw…

Rosa di Luce
When you’re immersed into something you never actually realize if the essence will project as bright as the efforts, as deep as the process and as loud as the intentions. WOW, the Roma Est duo of China and Leo Non, have never had to create magic or delve into mystique along their meandering path, it’s just been a long solemn wait for what life throws at them and actually sticks. Cause and reaction, because the essence is quietly there when the clamour fades away. Their new album ‘Rosa di Luce’ i…

*350 copies limited release* Boris Gronemberger is everywhere, but nowhere as much as in V.O and River Into Lake.

With surprising ease, Boris manages to remind us of Brian Wilson, Gastr del Sol, Sonic Youth or Hood while injecting in his compositions enough personality to constantly surprise and even bedazzle the unexpecting listener. Folky moments are followed up by a noisie…

Memory
This album is a special production for IZ's 2025 China Tour. The selected tracks include the live recordings from the "Koxpendi" tour in 2023 and from the BBC radio show in 2010. Over the years, as an important branch of Mamer's many music projects, IZ has been on a path of self-innovation and even self-denial. We hope you can feel this from these recordings spanning 13 years. As Mamer said, "We need to learn from tradition, and give back as much new content to it as possible, at the same time e…
