Tuonando
* Limited Edition 300 Copies + 12 Pages Booklet * The album contains several and unpublished performances by Vicinelli and tries to return all the vocal grades and timbric spectrum of her practice. The performative overstatement of the meaning alternates with purely phonetic aspects of poetry. The side B of the LP ends with an unpublished moving audio recording of Vicinelli who, almost sleeping, tells about a dream she dreamt to director Alberto Grifi, her partner at the time.

Talk Shop
Dischi Fantom’s Sussurra Luce series, blurring the boundaries between text, music and voice, returns with their third instalment, Hanne Lippard’s “Talk Shop”. Sculpting a fascinating bridge between radically experimental sound practice, conceptual art, and sound poetry, across its two sides the Berlin based multidisciplinary artist taps an almost dada sensibility, delivering a suite of poems and texts where singular words and sentences are looped and repeated creating a sensory experience of the…
Harkening Critters

Voiceprints & Aircuts: Sound Poetry By Other Means
*2024 stock* Thomas DeAngelo, known otherwise as T.D. or for his participation in Melkings, Zwangsbeglucktertum, Association Copy as well as his sadly departed Crisis of Taste label/mailorder, returns following his well-received Nothing New Under the Sun cassette (Gift of Music, 2022). From a distinctly leftfield position relative to the gnarled, textural tape noise works of this last output, DeAngelo in Voiceprints… offers an obscure, bloody-minded take on Sound Poetry and voice-based sound art…
Turning Porous
As part of the upcoming solo exhibition and publication “on becoming amphibian”, forms of minutiae and Galería Vilaseco present "turning porous", a gathering of amphibious and hydrographic acoustics by field recordist, artist, and forms of minutiae’s co-founder Pablo Diserens.
Premonitions
*60 copies limited edition* “Whenever I go, I can't help but notice signs of a looming change. I eavesdrop on conversations of creatures big and small, and like me, they seem uneasy and uncertain about what's to come. Something is in the air, dark clouds gather, winds are shifting course. Amidst the confusion and restlessness, the voices of non-human and human worlds blend in a worrisome symphony. This piece is an ode to anticipation, to the beauty of different forms of life on the brink of the …
Radio Archive (2014-2023)
"This small archive is a glimpse of a body of work made between 2014-2023 for, on, or with radio. I’ve been fascinated by broadcast radio since the earliest stages of working as a musician. I’m grateful to have been given many opportunities to make radio shows in a variety of diQerent contexts, and over the years have produced hours of work for the medium. Most of this has happened in London, with UK-based collaborators.
There is of course a real beauty in the ephemerality of the broadcast - it…

Spirit Of Ecstasy / The Way To Nepal
2024 Stock. 180 gram vinyl + extensive booklet. Reissue of this rare 1980 LP which features two avant-garde masterworks from Swedish composer/artist, Ake Hodell. "Spirit of Ecstasy (Racing Car Opera)," composed in 1977, is a bizarre experiment in "non-music," and an amazingly weird opera that tells the story of the first half of the 20th Century through that powerful symbol, the automobile. It features a compelling story despite consisting mostly of the repetitive chanting of car names, and it d…
Peat + Polymer
*2024 stock* "This one has it all: intercontinental field recordings, sledding children, vocal manipulations, soundscapes, excursions in drone. Natasha Barrett has been called “Norway’s most prominent composer of electro-acoustic music,” and on the basis of this double disc, she’s earned it. Peat+Polymer isn’t just a showcase for her own talents, but for the breadth of experimentalism.
Opening triptych “Hidden Values” is a tribute to three inventions: the umbrella, glasses/contact lenses, and t…
Trade Winds
*2024 stock* In 2006 Natasha Barrett was awarded the prestigious Nordic Council Music Prize for her work …fetters… released by Aurora. Her new album consists of one work only: “Trade Winds” is a fantastic voyage down to the mythical and physical depths of the wide oceans.
The piece is inspired by the vast expanse of sea – unleashing the musical potential of recordings from the 100-year-old sailing ship Dyrafjeld, from above and within harbour, shore and open oceans around the world, and the spok…

The sounds were not altered electronically nor changed in any other way. The only tool, which was used for a part of it, was a filtering program (DI…
Gravøl
Tip! *250 copies limited dition* "Gravøl meditates on two extremes, each of which seemingly remain determined to present their reveries without affectation or even play. The first side, 'Grievance Studies’, is a disquieting elixir that takes components from the archive and previous live-actions and builds into a harrowing primordial soup. The logic of this piece would suggest that it leads to its object. Löwenbrück instead renders it impermissible. The second side, ‘Prinzendorf Requiem (für H…
