Vashti Bunyan - Across The Water

Broken Head by Cluster/Eno (Automat Rework)

Take Over

Gabriel

The last studio album by the legendary krautronic duo, recorded 2009 in Ohio by Tim Story. “Seventeen miniature worlds, some icy, some warm, all infused with that Cluster elusiveness and unpredictability. Playful, dark, funny, human, QUA captures that deceptive Cluster heartbeat — unmistakably modern but utterly timeless.” Out Nov 17, 2017 (CD/vinyl/digitally)

Synthwaves

Flare

A Calm But Steady Flow

Rain On Dry Concrete

The first live recording by Dieter Moebius and Hans-Joachim Roedelius, recorded 1980 in Vienna. The only collaboration with the Austrian musician Joshi Farnbauer who played drums and percussion — and a sonic throwback to their early years. Raw and wild! On CD, digitally and the very first time on vinyl!

Among the lesser known dark-electro/post-punk bands of the early 1980s, the Berlin duo VONO really stood out. The radical nature of their music, the cold sound and sparse lyrics – VONO were arguably on a par with the more prominent ambassadors of the genres (DAF, Liaisons Dangereuses etc). Extreme even for the early eighties, their minimalism was constructed purely on synthesizers and heavy on bass. With lyrics to match, their debut album “Dinner für 2” was unique. Out Nov. 24, 2017. CD/LP/DL

In the early 1980s, the French musical duo Fondation, comprising Ivan Coaquette and Anannka Raghel, released three tapes of fantastic electronic music which owed much to the experi­mentalism of the seventies. Synthesizer, drum computer, solo guitar. Repetitive, meditative, hypnotic. Between ambient and synth pop. “Les Cassettes 1980—1983” presents a selection of their finest pieces. Our Jan 12, 2018. FIRST TIME ON CD & VINYL!

The new album "Thinking About Tomorrow, And How To Build It" by Andreas Spechtl (Ja, Panik) is an emotional bridge to the cosmic music of Can and the aural sculptures of Conrad Schnitzler. It is a modern and hybrid work — Spechtl mines deep strata of sound and samples in his sonic quarry, layering them over a constant bass drum, capable of launching every DJ set into a new space and time continuum. Recorded in Teheran. Out Nov. 10, 2017. CD/LP/digital

Perel - Die Dimension (Dub Version)

The two electronic sonic inventors Jürgen Krehan and Rudolf Langer founded Tyndall in the year 1980, naming their duo after a light scattering phenomenon in physics. Armed with an impressive array of instruments, devices and home-made synthesizers, they created free and easy electronic music in the style of the Berlin School (Berliner Schule), much to the liking of the legendary Sky Records who released their debut album. FIRST TIME ON CD! CD/vinyl/digital. Out Feb. 23, 2018

Tyndall pulled out all the stops for their second album. Armed with an impressive array of analogue synthesizers, they unleashed the full force of their experimentalist ambitions, weaving synth pop, repetitive bass patterns, laminar sounds and carefree melodies into a unique amalgam of the Düsseldorf and Berlin Schools. FIRST TIME ON CD! CD/vinyl/digital. Out Feb. 23, 2018
