I’m going to have to ask you to
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* One long composition for each side. Reminding me of an ultra-stretched version of the beautiful interplays on talktalk’s spirit of eden. Brittle percussive repetitions and muted trumpets slowly maneuvering into lovely tensions.
Compiled loops & experiments
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* Tape loops, wind-up gramophone manipulations, and other audio fascinations. All of these sounds share the fact that they didn’t fit into any other release. Collected throughout 2024 and 2025, they were set aside on my harddrive. This is a documentation of scrap material, assembled in rough form.
Ghosted III
Oren Ambarchi, Johan Berthling, and Andreas Werliin return with Ghosted III, their most immediate and adventurous collaboration yet. Recorded at Stockholm's Studio Rymden, this third excursion into spontaneous rhythm creation blends ambient neo-jazz, postkraut, and minimal funk with newfound looseness and wild exuberance.
Erica
A collection of photographs of everyday life, just passing by, on a constant search for those minimal hidden details, mysterious, yet full of awareness, meditative yet bristling with fervor. Mira’s debut for Maple Death ‘Erica’ reveals the artist’s constant transformation, a dense collection of six melancholy vignettes that spin cinematic neo-classical minimalism into slow-tranced lullabies and ancient folklore chants. Based between Rome and Torino the violinist and composer is a beloved figure …
Liebestod
Alexey Shmurak & Heinali’s “Liebestod” blends song, poetry, and electronics to explore love, death, and history with vulnerability and intensity.

Fronte Violeta
"Toku & Boregas release ‘Fronte Violeta’, blending sound, scent, and performance in a dynamic, ever-shifting sonic tapestry."
Utopia Americana
1992 release ** "A wonderful view of what is "American" in contemporary American music from an Italian producer's perspective, with a nice cover photo of Joey's Navajo Cafe and Dining Room framed by several pickup trucks parked outside. Including rhythmic-based music and sound-text rhythms from ordinary speech (Allen Ginsberg's works), some dreamy electronic music by Pauline Oliveros, and solo jazz by Steve Lacy, this is an interesting collection of new recordings and reissues of tracks from out…
For Jack
For Jack was written in 2024 for pianist Jack Yarbrough. I was inspired by Jack’s many performances of my music; how he approaches my soundworld with a beauty of touch and an attention to pacing. This piece is approximately 50 minutes long and, with a few exceptions, it is extremely quiet and spacious. Many thanks to Jack for asking me to write this piece and for playing it so beautifully.
Jack Yarbrough is a pianist working in the fields of contemporary and experimental music. Largely devoted t…
Melos
Melos is an ongoing series of site-specific works for organ and electronics. By merging sampled organ tones with sustained chords, it creates evolving, immersive textures unique to each venue. Each piece explores and expands the organ’s expressive limits through electronic means.
Dragon's Return
LP with obi strip, incl. booklet. Australian composer Oren Ambarchi and Norwegian guitarist Fredrik Rasten present Dragon's Return, a compelling new score for Eduard Grecner's 1967 Slovak cult film of the same name. Released via Viernulvier Records, this collaboration emerged from a live performance at the Videodroom Festival during Film Fest Ghent in October 2024, where the musicians premiered their improvisational soundtrack alongside the restored black-and-white parable. What began as a singu…
Edge Runner - Noema
Giovanni Di Domenico as a master of his instruments produces bulky sound rugged and dark atmospheres but also plainly beautiful through stark contrasts. Improvisation is therefore more as a state than an outline or shape, the timbre is the actual carrier of the form, drone is the crucial element. Edge Runner is sophisticated, refined even, balanced despite its obvious unwillingness to compromise, carefully crafted regardless of the mad surface structure. Noema consists of a live recording of an …

Idylla
Idylla is the third of part of a trilogy of nature-based recordings that Polish composer Michał Jacaszek has recorded for Touch. The first, Catalogue des Arbres (Touch TO:94), was a collaboration with Kwartludium that celebrated the earlier inspiration of French composer Olivier Messiaen's Catalogue des Oiseaux (1958). Gardenia (Touch TO:117) was a response to a field recording workshop organised by Francisco Lopez in Limpopo province in South Africa, on the border with Botswana, the participant…
The Years After
*200 copies limited edition* "Our first album we made together, "The Days After", was initially released on Three Poplars in 2003. Then, afterwards in 2007 it was re-issued with a new version of the second track, "Flaxen", on Faraway Press.
After having found the earliest version of 'The Days After' in my archives last autumn, there was an excitement that grows with the beginning of something in the creative process and the sparkle of an idea that can never be recreated. Furthermore, there was …
Encerclements
*2025 stock* "Bertrand Gauguet's "Encerclements" is a profound sonic meditation on the interplay of sound, space, and abstraction. Encircling the listener with a delicate, almost hypnotic web of frequencies, the album merges ambient minimalism with glitch and noise, creating a kind of auditory labyrinth. (…) Perhaps it’s fitting that Gauguet embraces such a stripped-down approach. The album doesn’t demand attention; it slowly captivates, much like a distant memory trying to find its way back int…
