Study Of A Dead End
*250 copies limited edition* The Mad Laboratory Of Anti-Matter is a free and improvised music duo based in Beirut. Created in 2022 by multi-instrumentalist Nadia Daou (NÂR) and clarinettist Paed Conca, an iconic figure on the improvised music scene.
Raw and industrial, the dark soundscape of this laboratory is an exploration of the void and everything that can be found and emanate from it: a sensory, physical, timeless experience. The trance-like quality of repetitive music is combined here with…
Apocrypha Solo Piano
"Once upon a time before dubstep, there was MXLX. A pre-teen pioneer pisstaker from the same era that spat out Black Dice, Liars, Lightning Bolt, Sunn O))), he's been forging his posi-noise/negi-trance universe 'The Croatoa Institute' for decades now. Matthew Loveridge, the lovable hater you hate to love presents a suite of post-modern minimal piano. I don't know anything about pianos but it reminds me a bit of Su Tissue's 'Salon De Musique' and Luciano Cilio's 'Dialoghi Del Presente'. I love th…
Dead Mind Records Bundle
A comprehensive survey of experimental sound practices across generations, geographies, and aesthetic approaches. This four-release bundle from Dead Mind Records presents vital documents of uncompromising artistic vision: from contemporary electronic collaboration to archival excavations of ambient and industrial histories.
At the center stands Carlos Giffoni & Joachim Nordwall's New Music - a visceral convergence of two sound artists operating at the outer edges of techno, noise, and electro-ac…
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.
Semiotic Drift
Semiotic Drift is a living conversation - Maggie Nicols uses voice as a map to possibility, Matilda Rolfsson provides creaking, insistent percussion, and Mark Wastell frames everything in the deep resonance of amplified tam-tam. The work rides the edge between storytelling and pure abstraction.
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.
Oneiric
Oneiric evokes drifting memories and waking dreams - an album created by Jane in Ether where recorders, piano, and violin/voice entwine in gauzy, tactile improvisations. Their music moves in soft spirals, trading clarity for a haze of overlapping tones and near-silence, aching toward something just out of reach.
Death in the Urban Jungle
Death in the Urban Jungle by Lance Austin Olsen is an expansive electroacoustic tapestry, weaving copper plate, shruti box, tape fragments, and wordless voice into a narrative of decay and emergence. Resonances and silences shape a listening experience as tactile as it is elusive.
Liminal Spaces
Liminal Spaces, by Ed Jones and Emil Karlsen, sketches a quiet but complex dialogue between saxophone and percussion. Their communication is fluid, as fleeting motifs and rhythmic fragments surface and dissolve, inviting the listener into the shifting boundaries of spontaneous improvisation.
Moon
Moon sees Simon Rose and Nicola Hein map a shifting terrain between breath and electricity. Baritone saxophone and microtonal guitar unfurl in subtle layers, crafting a microcosm where fragility and abrasion lie side by side, always moving, always searching.
The Duke of Wellington
The Duke of Wellington is a vivid portrait of Derek Bailey and John Stevens in spontaneous conversation, recorded live at a London pub in 1989. The set captures their dynamic synergy; jagged guitar and agile percussion interlock and diverge in an unrepeatable display of free improvisational skill.
Within (2) / Appearance (2)
Within (2) / Appearance (2) by Michael Pisaro-Liu presents a contemplative exploration of duration and silence, foregrounding gradual transformation. These extended works for guitar and double bass, created with Michael Francis Duch, reward patient listening and engage with resonance and subtlety over spectacle.
Earth of the Slumbering and Liquid Trees
Benjamin Tassie’s Earth of the Slumbering and Liquid Trees is an immersive 70-minute composition featuring performances by Zubin Kanga on keyboards, blending sampled historic organs, analogue synthesizers, and real-time digital processing. The work, part of the ‘Cyborg Soloists’ research project, was recorded live in Amsterdam and surrounds listeners with a multi-layered soundscape exploring themes of ritual, memory, and environmental transformation.
Stable Processes with Slow Ornaments
Theo Alexander’s Stable Processes with Slow Ornaments, released by Flung Records in 2025, is a 36-minute single-movement work for viola, bass clarinet, and eight tape players. The composition fuses acoustic and electronic textures, unspooling as a patient meditation on resonance, memory, and the slow shifts of sound in space.
Invisible
On Invisible, Mike Majkowski delivers a set of six immersive compositions situated at the intersection of ambient dub and textural electronica. Spanning 2019 to 2025, the album’s subtly evolving loops and enveloping atmospheres invite a deep listening experience, foregrounding mood and sonic presence over melodic statement.
Uchidome
Uchidome by Seijiro Murayama is a three-part solo percussion album released by Hitorri in October 2025. Recorded in France earlier that year, it represents Murayama’s fifth solo project on the label, extending his lifelong inquiry into rhythm, resonance, and silence through an ascetic focus on timbre, texture, and spatial tension.
SSI Solo 2024
SSI Solo 2024 by Junji Hirose distills five extended explorations of sound and silence recorded in Tokyo, merging mechanical invention and corporeal intensity. Created with his distinctive Self-made Sound Instrument (SSI) and including a striking “No-Instrument” piece, it pushes the limits of sonic improvisation and acoustic perception.
New Music
Limited edition of 50 copies on purple vinyl. A meeting of two uncompromising sound artists, Carlos Giffoni and Joachim Nordwall, New Music fuses pulsating electronic rhythms, immersive drones, and abstract textures into a vivid, physical listening experience. Emerging from the outer edges of techno, noise, and electro-acoustic composition, both artists channel their distinct sonic vocabularies into a shared space of tension and transformation. Giffoni's deep synth drones collide with Nordwall's…
Split
Dutch 80s cassette pioneer meets Blood Incantation's cosmic ambient side. Enno Velthuys recordings paired with Riedl's archival drift. Meditative, intimate, timeless.
