PNØ is the duo project of experimental vocalist Agnes Hvizdalek and techno innovator Jakob Schneidewind on electronics. They combine minimalistic musical structures with organic improvisations, pure vocal sounds with drum machines, synthesizers and effects that trigger and manipulate each other's output. Their vision for the future of music makes them explore crossing points between experimental and electronic dance music. Their first album, Zakeri, was released in 2015. Since then, they have performed, among others, at ORF Musikprotokoll, Wiener Festwochen, Jazzwerkstatt Wien, Ottosonics, and de/semble.

Best known as one half of Kiasmos alongside Ólafur Arnalds, the Faroe Islands born, Reykjavik based producer Janus Rasmussen has consistently refined an elegant sound that marries sonic precision with emotional depth. Over the past decade, he has built a wide-ranging body of work through collaborations across multiple genres as a producer, songwriter, musician, and mix engineer. As a solo artist, Janus has crafted compositions that balance immersive sound design, subtle melodic shifts and rhythmic drive, drawing on his diverse musical appreciation and studio experimentation. These experiences have shaped a creative identity that now comes into sharp focus on his most ambitious solo project to date -- Inert. The album marks a bold step forward, thematically exploring the act of breaking free from inertia through embracing creative freedom. With his new work, Janus incorporates his own vocals more than ever, weaving them seamlessly around intricate electronics as he expands his sound into new territory, while retaining the subtle restraint that has defined his output. Drawing inspiration from the dance music spectrum, Inert reflects a renewed sense of momentum, vulnerability and adventurousness in his sound.

Alva Noto's Wave Weave - Sono Obi is the original soundtrack by Alva Noto, composed for a film by Carsten Nicolai. The project emerged from a collaboration with an 12th-generation kimono textile manufacturer in Kyoto, Japan. At its core, the work explores the translation of sound into textile form: sonograms of musical compositions serve as the basis for woven structures, connecting acoustic frequency patterns with traditional weaving techniques. Alongside the original soundtrack, the release includes an alternative soundtrack version and a photographic documentation featuring sonograms, soundtrack visualizations, and film stills. LP is featured on picture disc vinyl. Includes premium gatefold sleeve with die-cut window and special finishing. Also includes an insert booklet (multiple panels/pages) presented in a cover sleeve with a satin ribbon detail.

LP version. Clear vinyl. Musique Pour La Danse presents The Unreleased Themes From Hellraiser (Expanded Ritual) by Coil. Back in 1987, Clive Barker's supernatural body-horror classic Hellraiser hit cinemas worldwide and introduced audiences to the demonic Cenobites. Barker was a devoted Coil fan (Peter Christopherson and John Balance), and he famously said they were the only band he'd ever heard on record whose music he'd had to take off because, in his words, "they made his bowels churn." He initially invited them to compose the film's music, and the group began recording cues. But the producers at New World Pictures ultimately rejected the material in favor of a more traditional approach, bringing in Christopher Young, whose final score remains excellent, if less experimental. What remains from Coil is an unfinished soundtrack with surviving fragments and rough ideas, abruptly left behind mid-process, a glimpse into an alternate Hellraiser movie. Nearly 40 years later, key long-term collaborators and Coil's "secret third member" Danny Hyde located the original Hellraiser studio session tapes, and the bonus material recovered from them is presented here as an "Expanded Ritual" edition, reassembled into a standalone, possibly definitive and strangely beautiful nightmare suite. Play it in the dark and experience the consequences of raising hell. Notes by Danny Hyde. Original artwork by Trevor Brown. For fans of pain and pleasure, Throbbing Gristle, lost horror soundtracks and haunted electronics.

Take Me, I'm Yours is the first collaboration album between Alan Abrahams and Jan Jelinek. Released through the latter's faitiche, it builds upon multi-layered vocal sketches by the former. The Paris-based artist, primarily known for his work as Portable and Bodycode, supplied Jelinek with multi-layered song sketches that the German artist subjected to a rigorous process of manipulation, excavating the ambiguities of the original material and transforming its rhythms into subtle pulses. Take Me, I'm Yours is neither a typical Abrahams record nor a classic Jelinek album -- it is something third, mediating between the physicality of the voice and the abstraction of electronic sound design. The two had crossed paths before really getting to know each other after Abrahams invited Jelinek to play at one of his Süd Electronic parties. The idea of a collaboration emerged slowly. "It started as an experiment, and over the past few years grew from a few tracks into this album," says Abrahams. He describes recording the basic material as a "tantalizing" process, not knowing how Jelinek would transform his material, some of which was based on wordless chanting, while other tracks were working with lyrical content. However, their mutual trust allowed Jelinek to remove the harmonies, radically reduce the rhythms, and concentrate on Abrahams' voice. Jelinek heard something "fragile" in this voice, "moments of doubt and dark premonitions." He points to "Forever" as an example. "Alan's original song reminded me of classic vocal house, but his voice seemed to almost break," he says. "This contradiction made the piece even bigger, because we hear a singer in the moment of an awakening." He further accentuated such tensions through arrhythmic synth modulations and time-stretching algorithms, while also adding concrete sounds from a variety of sources. With its dedication to both transforming and amplifying the emotional qualities hidden within Abrahams' pieces, Take Me, I'm Yours functions as a dialogue between those two singular artists. Includes download code.

Dogma marks a new beginning for Coloray. As the name suggests, the project explores the endless search for meaning in a world that does not always offer one. Across 11 tracks, the artist reflects on queer romance, grief, youthful hope, and melancholic joy. Emotional, chaotic, and imperfect, Dogma mirrors both the artist and the messy reality of a life unfolding. Rather than forcing rigid structures, the album embraces looseness and human presence. Live recordings and improvised songwriting take center stage- every lyric was written in the moment, and the tracks remain intentionally raw to preserve their imperfections. In this way, the album is both personal and political. It calls for belief in keeping humanity alive and for dismantling the societal dogmas that push artists away from the core of their creative identity. Dogma is an honest journey of self-authorship, unfolding through the sounds of new wave, disco-punk, electro, and ambient music.

Shaped from fragile, emotionally charged piano motifs that distort, disappear and transform into dense, cinematic textures, CANALS is a debut that's finely matured, the result of years of friendship and growth. Italian artist Vanja Sturno and Montréal-based Belgian-Spanish composer Pablo Geeraert (aka Sanea Ima) have worked together extensively on various projects up until now, but CANALS is their first official release as a duo. Having both studied music academically, the pair were eager to work more intuitively, so applied their well-honed set of skills to sound that, instead of fitting into a conceptual box, reflected more personal experiences. Back in 2023, Geeraert travelled to Rome to support his friend at a difficult time and, during the trip, received some bad news of his own. The complicated feelings unconsciously surged through a series of delicate Ryuichi Sakamoto-inspired piano improvisations and a new project began to coalesce. They didn't realize it at the time, but once the record was finished, Sturno and Geeraert began to understand that the entire process had been a form a joint catharsis - a release of pressure. They were able to function so effortlessly and swiftly because they had already provided the space for each other to resonate emotionally and the music flowed from that point. On the first segment, Sturno and Geeraert's initial recordings can be perceived most nakedly, the melancholy, Satie-like phrases floating peacefully for a moment before the tranquility is agitated by stormy distortions and swelled into thick waves of harmony. The piano provides the record with its emotional anchor, offering focus and clarity as multi-dimensional noise wells up around it before inevitably dissipating, leaving gentle, unadorned sounds once again. And the familiar instrument is reshaped into a wheezing artificial organ on the animated "CANALS III," punctuated by percussive, tape-warped pitch fluctuations that seem to bite into its very essence. Gauzy acoustic granulations snowball into a powerful, bass-heavy crescendo on the fourth part, setting the tenor for the album's second half. But after the crushing "CANALS VI," possibly Sturno and Geeraert's heaviest track, a brief tremolo-heavy vignette that ripples through experimental rock and ambient music's braided history, the duo clear the air with a jazzy diversion, introducing soft woodwind blasts as a palate cleanser before an epic, widescreen finale. It's an album that's best absorbed as a whole, a vortex of ritualistic, rhythmic repetitions that Sturno and Geeraert appropriately refer to as "spiral listening."

LP version. Meeting By Chance is a project by Marcin Cichy, one of the founders of the legendary duo Skalpel. Beyond his work with his home formation, Marcin also gained international recognition through his collaboration with the late Lil Peep on their joint EP Changes. His new album as Meeting By Chance reveals another side of Cichy's musical imagination. While Skalpel became known for transforming jazz samples into cinematic downtempo soundscapes, this project moves closer to ambient, IDM and classical electronic music. The title hints at its central theme: the way time bends, stretches and slips away from perception. Musical sequences loop like fragments of memory; rhythms appear and dissolve; melodies emerge from misty layers of synthesizers. At times the music evokes the cinematic worlds of Vangelis or Brian Eno, while elsewhere one can hear echoes of the subtle minimalism of Susumu Yokota and Ryuichi Sakamoto, alongside contemporary cinematic electronics in the spirit of Oneohtrix Point Never. "Too Far" captures the character of the album particularly well. A looping piano motif intertwines with vocal samples, ambient textures, a deep bass pulse and almost jazz-like drums. The result is spacious and luminous -- electronic music that, despite its digital tools, sounds strikingly organic and intimate. This sense of "breathing" music is one of the most distinctive elements of the record. The drums feel lively and tactile, never mechanical. Cichy's music unfolds like a sequence of images -- like photographs placed side by side, where meaning emerges in the space between frames. It is no coincidence that the project's name comes from the famous 1970 photographic series by Duane Michals, in which two men pass each other in a narrow street, only to turn around moments later, as if they had recognized one another too late. Time Deception ultimately becomes more than a collection of tracks -- it is a meditation on memory, technology and the strange elasticity of time, where machines seem to breathe with an almost human rhythm.

Congolese-Austrian musician, painter, and filmmaker Kimyan (formerly Kimyan Law) combines sound and visual design in an impressively direct way to create a comprehensive artistic experience. He takes an open, intuitive approach to his compositions, connecting the resonances of traditional instruments and rhythmic patterns from Central, North, East, and Sub-Saharan Africa with sophisticated production techniques. Kimyan's new album, Coloria, in which he explores the concept of timbre in a multifaceted way, marks the pinnacle of his artistic development to date. For his live-concerts, Kimyan relies on the organic element of playing, using instruments such as electronic drum pads and MIDI controllers. This gives his pieces a spontaneous, physical presence on stage that goes far beyond mere reproduction and makes his performances a lively interplay between improvisation and structure. In conjunction with his self-designed artwork and videos, corresponding audiovisual worlds are created in which cultural influences and identities, moods and timbres shine together radiantly. Kimyan's works tell stories in many colors, yet always in one language: his own.

LP version. On their ninth album for Bureau B, the internationally renowned Berlin/Düsseldorf-based outfit Kreidler focus on atmospheric soundscapes -- of course maintaining their signature rhythmic groove, which on Schemes is simply more buoyant and less insistent. Schemes is also characterized by the more pronounced use of nature/outdoor recordings. The track featuring Leo Garcia as a guest vocalist is based on just such a field recording. With Schemes, Kreidler step into a more ambient space of possibilities, crafting an album that feels both carefully considered and delightfully unguarded. The songs on Schemes are like beads hanging on a string. Each one distinct, yet connected. Swinging in a warm breeze. Catching the light from different angles. The album begins with "Beads," with a funky stabby synth drives the song, which nonetheless maintains a hazy ambivalence. "Klove Twin" begins with tiny bells emanating some foggy substance intoxicating the band into a mid-tempo shuffle with some brash brush strokes. "Scrap Metal" might be the genre. "Snowflakes" are enjoying a summer dance, layers of synth melodies intertwined. "Marble Upset" plays with memory, activating recollections of present past, a slowed down rave, faint images, glimpses and gasps. "Via de me," big city, nocturnal lights, an ambient pop take. It may be really quiet, still there are better things to do than to sleep. Leading to "Fenix": Leo Garcia just happened to be in Berlin for a concert. The old friend from Buenos Aires built his euphoric vocal melody impromptu over a noisy urban field recording. The bird rising up out of the ashes, fighting the miseries, towards the light. It is a protest song of the unusual kind. The home stretch is "Tar," where some cicadas continue in a similar spirit, tiny animals having a night on the tiles. The smell of tar in the sun, soft and deep black, in sharp contrast with the background of gently curved hills, pastel-colored, asking what it takes to live peacefully together. The cover artwork by Luzie Meyer mirrors this spirit: A dialogue of sorts, on a string, a psychoanalytic dance. Ideas clash, yet disputes are solved amicably.

It is no coincidence that the project's name comes from the famous 1970 photographic series by Duane Michals, in which two men pass each other in a narrow street, only to turn around moments later, as if they had recognized one another too late. Time Deception ultimately becomes more than a collection of tracks -- it is a meditation on memory, technology and the strange elasticity of time, where machines seem to breathe with an almost human rhythm.

Water Sign is the debut EP from producer and instrumentalist John Silas: a five-track suite that moves fluidly between peak-time dance and inward reflection. Deeply aligned with the open-eared ethos of NYC's Love Injection Records, the release channels house and jazz into an emotive personal chronicle shaped by movement, memory, and community. Water Sign reflects Silas's trajectory -- from a childhood steeped in Soul Train, coming of age with hip hop, to MPC craftsmanship, his Detroit musical family and present-day Brooklyn -- into a deeply personal record equally suited to discerning DJs and deep listeners. Featuring Patrice Scott, Marquinn Mason, and Domenica Fossati.
