*350 copies limited release* Boris Gronemberger is everywhere, but nowhere as much as in V.O and River Into Lake. Insiders of the Belgian indie scene already took notice of his undeniable talent through his multiple musical adventures. 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…

If We Can't Dream, They Won't Sleep!!
*2025 stock* Strange connections -- Bilbao meets Japan via Berlin on a record that will put you in a constant state of WTF. ASMR rock? Post internet punk? A political manifesto in times of generalized madness? After his acclaimed 2017 destructo-punk single on Munster Records, Al Karpenter now delivers his mature, complex debut LP on the world's premier record label for adults, New York City's Ever / Never.
Al Karpenter is an elusive figure. On this record, he comes off like "Che" Guevara front…
The Forthcoming
*2025 stock* On their third album, Al Karpenter merges its singular vision with a host of collaborators. After finally becoming a band in 2022 with Marta Sainz and Enrique Zaccagnini from Santander joining Al Karpenter and Mattin, and in synchronicity with a recent CIA Debutante team-up, this group rises to the challenge of expanding its parameters. As Al Karpenter’s resident theoretician Mattin explains, “The last record was a result of the pandemic, introverted, isolated and with a blues energ…
Al Karpenter & CIA Debutante
*2025 stock* A collaboration between the Spanish Cabalists, Al Karpenter & French Rosicruanists, CIA Debutante, was not specifically foretold in the Fama Fraternitatis, but read between the lines, friend. That is where the truth lurks. The bilious Marxist splatter of the former, coursing alongside the dystopian surrealism of the latter, is a nefarious seance gambit born in the ether. Many voices are heard-fractious, cryptic, suffused, fading one into the other, the results often as hazy as the m…
As Seen Through Windows
*2025 stock* Following the reissue of Recording a Tape the Colour of the Light, Erased Tapes are thrilled to announce the reissue of the band’s second album As Seen Through Windows. Expanding further on the foundation that Recording a Tape the Colour of the Light laid, the group refined and tightened their sound on this masterpiece. Bell Orchestre is a collaborative instrumental group based in Montreal. Whose six members come from wildly divergent musical backgrounds, and the unlikely chemistry …
Who Designs Nature's How

Bell Orchestre is a collaborative instrumental, Montreal based group who originally formed back in 1999. The first music they created was predominately live scores for contemporary dance performances and theatrical pup…
Recording A Tape The Colour Of The Light
*2025 stock* Erased Tapes are proud to announce the first in a series of Bell Orchestre reissues. The band’s landmark debut album Recording a Tape the Colour of the Light has been repressed on vinyl using the original masters for the first time since its original release in 2005. Formed in 1999 whilst studying in Montreal, the first music Bell Orchestre made was live scores for contemporary dance performances and puppet shows. Looking back at the band’s early years two decades later, drummer Ste…
The Beautiful World
300 copies limited edition** David Allred is a prolific composer and producer based in Portland, Oregon. His new album The Beautiful World captures an enriched, realised understanding of why he composes in the first place. Dedicated to the expression of existential themes such as death, grief, longing and loss, the album’s core theme centres around the suicide of a young girl Lauren, who was a family friend to Allred.
For as long as he could remember, Allred always created music out of a kind of…
Only Birds Know How to Call the Sun and They Do It Every Morning
Kaj Duncan David’s new album ‘Only Birds Know How to Call the Sun and They Do It Every Morning', made with the Danish contemporary ensemble Scenatet, is an extraordinary work of sui generis avant-garde electronic music, exploring the relationship between language and three interrelated themes; human development, altered states of consciousness and AI / machine learning. Employing voice (vocoder, talkbox), synth, EWI (electric wind instrument), MIDI guitar and MIDI percussion, ‘Only Birds Know Ho…
Gym Douce
* 200 copies limited edition. Comes with a Risograph pamphlet insert. * Permanent Draft founders Valentina Magaletti and Fanny Chiarello return with Gym Douce, a playful and surreal suite of percussion and spoken word that reimagines the gym as a space for sonic exploration. Across seven inventive tracks, the duo transforms everyday movement into a series of charming, oddball vignettes: “Reverse Fly” is an earworm of processed voice and unruly drum machine claps, while “Curtsy Lounges” veers fro…
Schedars
Emerged from the heart of Japan’s underground scene, Schedars is an incredible five piece band with an explosive sound rooted in the Post-Punk-No-Wave aesthetic. Previously self-released and now reissued on a world-wide scale, this is their first full album. A hyper-active blend of sharp singing, psychotic guitars and organs, snaky saxes, infectious bass lines and nervous drums beats.
Fans of bands like D.N.A, The Contortions, Phew or early The Ex will find themselves enthralled by Schedars’ unc…
Greatest Heads
*300 copies limited edition* Al Karpenter expands on their Post-Genre Punk approach reaching a new level of maturity. In fact, we can say that “Greatest Heads” is Al Karpenter’s “Remain in Light” from Talking Heads in the sense that it is also their fourth record, heavily based on production and is influenced by Afrobeat in distorted ways. This record contains elaborated liner notes by Eoin Anderson and features very special guests: “ “ [sic] Goldie, Lisa Rosendahl, and Mikel Xedh — a deeply imp…
Hard Sell
"Sloping like a jello tower block - open the bellows!! His laconic oration cuts through gauzy pigment canopy over dissolute scenes, precisely shipwrecked. For a unit so put together, Giulio Erasmus and his End of the Worm band do the do exquisitely dismantled. Standing lean and lugubrious in what is no less than the direct continuation of the hallowed Factory-Benelux-connection lineage, here the instantly recognisable sinister-yet-seductive basslines and suavely disaffected voice of Erasmus hims…

Pillar of Fire / Capernaum
This is the first collaboration between Al Cisneros (OM, Sleep) and David Eugene Edwards (Wovenhand, 16 Horsepower).
Blue Mountains
One day Hannes told me he had a new band with Christian that would more or less sound like Spacemen 3 / Stereolab "but not all at the same time" (!). When I received these tracks, after some initial acid noise and a piece that sounds like Suicide with the computer crashing, I gradually recognized the salty scent of the purest south Scandinavian spleen, updated to the anguish of current times. Line up expanded to include members of the Australian band Low Life for the occasion!
The Persistence Of Memory (Early Tapes 1990-1993)
Palo Alto is a French group formed in Paris, France in 1989 by Jacques Barbéri, Denis Frajerman, Philippe Masson and Philippe Perreaudin. In their early interviews the group insisted on their musical filiation with Tuxedomoon, and on drawing their inspiration from Made to Measure, a Crammed Discs label. They would later make explicit their interest in bands such as Art Zoyd, The Legendary Pink Dots, Coil, The Residents, Can or Cabaret Voltaire. Science fiction in all its forms is a leitmotiv in …
Second
When you’re running a label, a demo occasionally comes across your desk that makes you reconsider everything you thought your label was all about. For Balmat, such was the case with this stunning album from Stephen Vitiello, Brendan Canty, and Hahn Rowe. It sounds like nothing we’ve released so far—and that very otherness opened up a whole new world of possibilities for us. Fans of ambient, experimental electronic music, and sound art will be familiar with Vitiello, a New York native, long based…
Fact I
*2025 stock* After a long break Wozzeck returns to Intonema with an album called Fact I that opens the next chapter in the group's history. Ilia Belorukov, Mikhail Ershov and Konstantin Samolovov celebrated a decade of the band last year and wrote a piece with the materials collected over several years, transformed them and placed them into a new context.
This resulted in a 37-minute composition of math rock, noise, musique concrete and field recordings with a wide dynamic range and sounds throu…
