In Concert
“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world,” a first-class snob once stated. So rightful, he was. We feel so petite when the journey is elite. Like during the concert that Kashual Plastik drops here on cassette. For this release, a visual and material concept was carried directly into the artwork: since the artist performs his concerts illuminated only by a single candle, the cassettes were packaged inside matchboxes — a tribute to that fragile, flickering source…
Melophobia
Melophobia spins tension out of spontaneous contact - Dave Tucker (guitar) and Pierpaolo Martino (double bass and electronics) improvise with sharp attention to rhythm, fracture, and digital manipulation, conjuring environments that threaten – and then dissolve – melodic order.
Juno
Juno invites deep contemplation through slow-moving layers of sound - Barry Chabala’s guitar, David Forlano’s electronics, and Drew Gowran’s percussion work in unhurried mutual orbit, exploring patience, resonance, and negative space rather than technical bravura.
Ensemble A
Ensemble A is a turbulent meeting of three fiercely individual improvisers - Ignaz Schick harnesses live electronics and turntables, Anaïs Tuerlinckx dismembers and reinvents the piano, and Joachim Zoepf twists reeds into guttural shapes. The result is a volatile sound collage, sometimes blunt-force, sometimes eerily restrained.
Black Industrial Research Group

Microphonies 21
Microphonies 21 by Marc Billon is a long-form electroacoustic exploration centered on the resonances of a tam-gong. Blurring the line between acoustic gesture and electronic transformation, the work unfolds as a slow, tactile meditation on vibration, decay, and the physical act of listening itself.
Live at Fondazione Museo Pino Pascali
Live At Fondazione Museo Pino Pascali sees Grischa Lichtenberger transfigure a forty-minute set into a tactile, visual, and kinetic experience. Industrial clangor, mechanical pulses, and fleeting ambience merge, sculpted with rigor. Issued by Hermit Records as a collector’s vinyl, it stands at the edge between noise, rhythm, and abstraction
Transe, Musique À Trois Dimensions
1997 release ** "Pianist and composer Patrick Scheyder, in a group or solo, explores improvisation, its expression, and the mechanical or technical means—here, the piano—of generating it. Thus, alongside encounters with jazz—including a constantly evolving piano duo with Bernard Lubat—this Trance is both a research into sound and a musical act. Jean Schwarz contributes recorded sounds, and Daniel Teruggi transforms them live. We hear knocking, reversed tapes, slowed down or sped up, reverberatio…

Concert à la Cave 12
*100 copies limited edition* "Out there Norwegian guitarist-performer-singer, Gaute Granili, a true prodigy of (de)structured psychedelic song that we have been following since his beginnings, continues his explorations of sweet madness by donning a fantastic collection of strange twisted stretched beads, filled with ghost/haunting folk music, which one has the impression of knowing from who knows where, of lyrics sung in unknown vocabularies and of pop surges deboned by a psychedelic gnome mess…

Live at Kwia
Tip! **Ltd. 50 copies. In process of stocking** A weaving of biophonic field recordings with hums of blown and stroke glass bottles, dogs’ barks and bats’ calls. The emerging electroacoustic ecoscape oscillates between animal stridulations and Helmholtz resonances. Wavering wind pulses and mirroring clangs intertwine with ultrasonic drones bringing the audience into oneiric realms. Ants, grasshoppers, and crickets infuse the room with vespertine warmth. Windows ooze with condensation. Winter see…
