Have You Heard About the World Coming to an End?
Death Is Not The End present a compilation gathering a cross-section of early gospel choirs and vocal harmony groups recorded between late 1920s and the mid-1950s - a period when spirituals & jubilee traditions merged with blues, jazz and early rhythm and blues, providing the musical routes for the coalescence of the civil rights movement born out of the black church. In the modern world these perennially vital recordings provide a fitting tonic for the near-dystopia we find ourselves living thr…

Fun House
On Fun House, The Stooges tear rock down to its studs and rebuild it as a single, sweating organism: seven tracks of feral groove, free‑jazz squall, and Iggy Pop at maximum possession, a record that still feels like a room on the verge of imploding.
The Last Slogan (Book)

Grotto In The Sun
*150 copies limited release* Winding through cavernous and dark meanders, amid gurgling water, rustling sounds, low and deep pulsations, incisive and impactful sound masses, floating waves, crystalline drips, sudden rays of light, electronic spirals, and unexpected openings onto almost soothing soundscapes and quiet environmental stasis, Rod Modell paints musical textures that are apparently abstract and contemplative, but in reality charged with pathos and drama, taking advantage of a spectacul…
Frequencies In The Fog
*150 copies limited release* Sound trails, minimal structures built with pads, discreet electronic elements, slow, deep and enveloping bass lines, backgrounds of confused voices treated in reverse, circular movements alternating with liquid stasis and quiet... Creaks on layered sound substrates of indecipherable nature, which seem to emerge from a thick blanket of fog that reveals fragments of real landscapes here and there, ready to disappear from view again after a few moments, once more hidde…
Low clouds hang, this land is on fire
For his third new album release for Drag City, Tashi Dorji turns to the electric guitar. After the furious acoustic improvisations that drove the previous two—"Stateless" and "we will be wherever the fires are lit" — it’s easy to imagine an album of his electric guitar improvisations as an encompassingly incendiary essay. Especially when titled low clouds hang, this land is on fire. After all, this is a man capable of tearing up the place with the tactile musical violence of Bill Orcutt and Dere…

Exterminating Angel
On Exterminating Angel, Dark Day turns their minimalist electronics toward something more sinister and cinematic, fusing icy synth patterns and ritualistic rhythm into a claustrophobic séance on desire, control and self‑erasure.
Flowers of Emptiness
"Maybe I'm like a still life painter," Linda Catlin Smith says, "looking at the same objects again and again over the years." Yet this survey of chamber works—spanning 1986 to 2024—shows a composer whose perspectives continually shift, finding something fresh in each iteration. Hers is "a compositional voice that never shouts, never draws undue attention to itself, yet creates music of compelling beauty." The Guardian awarded five stars, placing it #3 in their Top Classical Releases of 2024.

The Pastoral Machine
Fourth volume of Library Music miniatures by Daniel O’Sullivan (Ulver, Æthenor, This is Not This Heat, etc) for VHF, this time commissioned by the legendary German Music Library, Sonoton. Another sampling of Dan’s versatility and brilliance as a composer, performer, and sound designer, the focus on The Pastoral Machine is more “electronic” compared to the three previous albums Dan recorded for KPM (also issued on LP by VHF), with simpler arrangements and a focus on gentle and emotive synthesised…

Rules
Tip! 2025 Stock. In the early 1960s, while Robert Moog was still perfecting his voltage-controlled synthesizers in upstate New York, a young Finnish physicist named Erkki Kurenniemi was building an entirely different future in a basement studio at the University of Helsinki. Working with digital control technology years before the rest of the world caught on, Kurenniemi created instruments that seemed to arrive from a parallel timeline - synthesizers played with electronic pens, machines that tr…

The Shout
On The Shout, Rupert Hine turns a psychological horror into a study of sound itself, fusing electroacoustic experiment, synth eeriness and musique concrète into a score that feels as invasive as the film’s infamous, landscape-shattering scream.
