Sleeplaboratory3.0 is the third edition of Whitelabrecs’ long-standing concept compilation, a series that aims to induce the listener into a peaceful sleep. The series began in 2019 to mark the 50th release in the label’s catalog and was followed up with a second edition in 2020. It has seen contributions from the likes of Offthesky, Janek Schaefer, M.grig, The Green Kingdom, Warmth and Halftribe as well as artists from the label, including Mikael Lind, Gray Acres, Sven Laux, Glåsbird and Valotihkuu.

Sleeplaboratory compilations are typically released in January and after a two year break, 3.0 continues the themes established in the previous two records. Each artist in the line-up takes the brief of creating ‘sleep music’ and paints the sonic field with their own ideas. Some artists develop restful electro-acoustic compositions, whilst others sketch out soothing drones or vacant ambient textures. With a varied spectrum of warmth and cold, light and floaty, weighted and deep, this new collection features label-regulars such as Andrew Heath, blochemy and Pruski alongside the likes of Ian Hawgood, The Lifted Index, Federico Mosconi and Stijn Huwels. The track titles tend to tie back to the central album theme with words synonymous with rest, phases of sleep or calm places. This album can be experienced in many ways, such as at low volume with headphones, or streamed through hi-fi in a dimly lit room, consciously, or subconsciously.

lfman + Sonitus Mortis Release Hauntingly Beautiful Album MOTUS
An evocative journey through sound, memory, and motion

Early in 2025, composer Frank Ilfman and avant-garde sound collective Sonitus Mortis have joined forces to release MOTUS, a genre-defying album that merges cinematic orchestration with experimental soundscapes. Now available on all major streaming platforms, MOTUS explores the emotional momentum of the human experience, blending melancholy strings, immersive ambient textures, and unsettling sonic motifs.
Sonitus Mortis introduces a raw, often spectral edge, resulting in a visceral listening experience that is both meditative and unsettling.

"MOTUS is movement through memory," Ilfman says. "It’s about how sound can carry emotion, time, and even ghosts."

MOTUS is more than an album—it's an audial film, a sonic elegy, and a bold statement in contemporary composition.


Frank Ilfman - vocals, Reels, Loops, drone machins, Moog, Roland Cr78, Juno 60, Otarie Machine.
Sonitus Mortis - Metal Machines, oil Drums, Roland 808, Korg MS20, Teac Reels, DAT, Speak&Spell, Electric Porta Machine.
Vocals - Moto
Music mixed at the shad by Frank Ilfman & Uno
Mastered by Leopoldo Lopes at Sound Pressure Studios

With over 100 physical releases since its inception by Taylor Deupree in 1997, New York-based music label 12k has decisively defined and developed the concept of minimalism in the realms of electronic music for more than a decade. Fusing elements from Ambient and Electro-Acoustic Composition with carefully arranged digital textures and associative micro-noises, the label's aesthetics revolve around a precisely-outlined, yet deeply emotional concoction of the technological and the organic. Eschewing the typical marketing mechanisms of the commercial music industry, Deupree has sculpted a platform whose influence today extends well beyond the confinements of the experimental community. 12k's integral approach, in which the label's instantly recognizable, elegantly spartan artwork enters into an inseparable symbiosis with the music, has created a timeless audiovisual language respected and appreciated all over the world.
