Akhira Sano - Demande Un

We are delighted to announce our forthcoming musical adventure with a mate who, like us, enjoys connecting tea with electronic music.

Based in the south of England, Scape One (Kurt Baggaley) is often recognised for his futuristic electro and experimental idm styles. He also uses the pseudonym Tau Sagittarii for his ambient space music made for armchair astronauts. Plenty of tea was used in the making of this music so here is a carefully crafted selection for you to enjoy with your favourite cuppa.

To enhance your listening experience, we recommend accompanying the mix with GABA teas, allowing you to connect with the music on a deeper, clearer level of awareness.

Gentle drones lure the listener in, punctuated by shards of tape hiss and electronic hum. 
Synchronised voices rise and fall, synthesisers exhale, all ushered forward by the pulse of distant static. It’s the sound of a highway at night, the sound of a digital sea, the sound of time passing. 

DEEP COMPLETIONS is a self-titled 8 track album of choral and ambient music, written and recorded in Berlin between 2023 and 2025. Released in the year 2025 on Amsterdam’s Shimmering Moods Records.

Ruth Maine - Nesting

Gray Acres has always been a space for subtlety and restraint, distinct from the denser, more cinematic atmospheres of Hotel Neon. Where that project often explores process, technique, and narrative arcs, Gray Acres tends to be produced "in the moment" and stays still. It lets you think for yourself. Soft Erasure especially embraces that characteristic stillness.

This is the first full-length Gray Acres album since 2021’s “Dreams and Phantoms.” It’s a project that came together slowly with an intentionally light touch…more about dissolving sounds than constructing them. Subtraction vs. addition.

The title Soft Erasure came about as we noticed a recurring quality across the recordings: a sense of tangible things like guitars, pianos, and strings fading, softening, and slipping just out of reach as we shaped and processed them. The music feels like it’s constantly on the verge of vanishing, or being gently wiped away into an indistinct atmosphere. That idea of erasure not as violence, but as gentleness, decay, or transformation, felt like the right metaphor to latch on to. It speaks to memory, distance, and time, and how all of those forces shape and reshape our perception of sound and self.

Musically, this album is built mainly from resampled acoustic instruments: delicate piano lines, sustained strings, frozen and looped guitar textures. Much of the source material was recorded clean, then stretched, blurred, and layered until it became something abstract…like an impression of a song, or a half-remembered phrase. In some ways, we were trying to find the most washed-out and ephemeral version of each sound. The result is a record that is designed less for narrative and more for immersion.

If you’ve followed this project before, I think you’ll hear a natural continuation of its aesthetic. But if you’re new to Gray Acres, this is a great entry point. It’s music that tries not to demand attention, but rewards those who tune in closely for a while.
