And Their Power Was Alive
Faith Coloccia's unadorned voice over Tashi Dorji's glacial, howling guitar, with piano, organ and tubular bells: songs about land, property and loss, recorded between Anacortes and Asheville.
Book of Carols
Sarah Davachi's commissions and longform pieces from 2023 to 2026, for The Broad, MoMA, Sonic Acts, Ghost Ensemble and NO HAY BANDA: six works across six CDs in a rigid slipcase, companion to The Will of Tongues.
Hyper possibility
Is art artificial, is it a rhythm, or is it an algorithm—this is the question Ulf Herold poses, and the answer sounds rather affirmative: the two are not necessarily to be understood as opposites, but as dynamic counter-poles—this becomes evident in …
Offshore
Offshore is the first solo guitar album from Half Moon Bay local Alex Pasternak, an improvisatory record built almost entirely around a single instrument and a single practice: Restraint. Recorded close to home, it carries the sound of the Pacific an…
Hidden Hour
On Hidden Hour, marine eyes preserves eighteen moments of dawn, dusk and chosen solitude in a full hour of luminous ambient drift. Cynthia Bernard’s guitars, lap steel, soft synths and field recordings turn nearby forests, coastlines and mountains in…
Solos II
On Solos II, Anton Toorell turns two simultaneously played guitars into a shimmering architecture of tone, tension and air. Recorded in an Italian wine cellar, its three extended pieces use altered tunings, open strings and resonant decay to create l…
The Chair and the Faucet
On The Chair and the Faucet, Etelin transforms a Zen‑retreat image into 33 minutes of quietly volatile modular synthesis. Alex Cobb’s Serge system traces dry, microtonal drones and wavering harmonics that drift without resolution, making stillness fe…
Phren
On Phren, Marta Salogni and Stefano Pilia build a shared electro‑acoustic architecture where guitar, tape machines and field recordings circulate like memory in motion. Signals move through modular processes, echoes and Revox loops until origin and r…
A Sucked Orange
*100 copies limited edition* Very, very broadly speaking, there are two kinds of Nurse With Wound albums: the sprawling, immersive, evolving drone-type recordings - think Soliloquy for Lilith, Salt Marie Celeste - and the wild, surreal freak-outs. A …
Avaeken
Black Vinyl. American experimental composer Stephen O'Malley releases Avaeken, two sides of immense, immersive, self-annihilating music via Dais Records. The record preserves site-specific work: O'Malley installed Avaeken as part of Wish You Were Her…
Cooked
On Cooked, Oren Ambarchi folds his all‑star studio jam aesthetic into something gloriously unhinged. Two side‑long epics twist piano ripples, synthetic “voices,” mutant trumpet tones, electric Miles haze and digital pyrotechnics into a foot‑tapping, …
Locked
Exclusive Bad Sector tape release for his live-gig at XXI Congresso Post Industriale.
Canvas on Which It Is Impossible to Paint
On Canvas on Which It Is Impossible to Paint, Tungu and Hui-Chun Lin stretch improvisation to the brink of impossibility. Lin’s fiercely physical cello dialogues with Senchuk’s cut‑tape, bass and environmental ghosts, while Makigami Koichi’s voice sk…
Stilla Dagar, Stilla Nätter/Stille Dage, Stille Naetter
*200 copies limited edition* Swedish-Danish collab album of lush, low key new age/ambient DIY gold, based mainly on synth, piano, saxophone, spoken word and field recordings. Marvelous peak summer music. A private press style/no label release distrib…
Distractions for Trumpet & Ajaeng
On Distractions for Trumpet & Ajaeng two radically distinct instrumental traditions converge in a study of texture, fragility, and focus. Kelley’s whisper-quiet trumpet tones and microscopic bursts of air intertwine with Kim’s bowed ajaeng, its coars…
White Morning
On White Morning, Fumio Miyashita distils his healing‑ambient language into two near‑half‑hour reveries: soft synths and gentle acoustic colours held in a discovered stillness that treats music as a space for rest, focus and quiet presence.
Después De Llover
On Después De Llover, Eli Wewentxu and Indrė Jurgelevičiūtė turn a first encounter into a shared dreamscape, letting kanklės, txompe and violin wander in post‑rain light where plants, pudus and herons quietly rewrite the rules of folk dialogue.
Gwethilu: Songs For The Dark Lake
On Gwethilu: Songs For The Dark Lake, Timoteo Carbone Hansson builds an otherworldly song‑cycle where experimental timbres, early‑medieval polyphony and Nordic folk roots swirl together into slow, haunted rituals of rhythm and drone.
Above The Street
Jordan Smart is internationally recognised as active member of Mammal Hands (recent UK Jazz Charts No.1, ACT Records), Sunda Arc and Vega Trails (Gondwana Records). This LP showcases a different side to Jordan’s playing and composing, marketable to f…
La lucha es un poema colectivo
The music of La lucha es un poema colectivo was conceived and composed during a long artistic residency at IRCAM in Paris in November 2023 and will be released by Superpang. ‘In November 2023, we were in residence in Paris when we found ourselves in …
