  • Röyksopp | Profound Mysteries II. Out on August 19th

    "'Profound Mysteries II’ is a direct continuation of the first instalment. Reoccurring themes such as love & loss, despair & reconciliation, is wrapped up in an esoteric nod to those artists and genres that shaped us in our formative years." - Röyksopp (Svein Berge & Torbjørn Brundtland) Electronic pop trailblazers Röyksopp announce the second part to their expansive ‘Profound Mysteries’ project, ‘Profound Mysteries II’.

  • Röyksopp - Profound Mysteries. New album from the Norwegian electronic masters..

    Röyksopp are back with a new album after 8 years since their last release "The Inevitable End" which as I understood was their last ever album. Guess I was wrong... "Profound Mysteries" is in my humble opinion their best release, easily beating my previous favourite "Junior". Not a duff track insight with everything from downtempo electronica to dancefloor tracks like Breathe and This time, This place... (well I'd dance to it...if I could dance...) with plenty of melody as only Röyksopp know with their own take and sound of what electronic music should be. The album features vocals from Astrid S, Alison Goldfrapp, Beki Mari, Pixx and Susanne Sundfør. I've had this on my playlist for some time now and it's not likely to come off it anytime soon... CD £13.99

  • The Expanding Universe "One" New project from Martin Kennedy (All India Radio, Kilbey Kennedy)

    The Expanding Universe is Martin Kennedy from All India Radio's new project. Exploring the hazier psychedelic side of ambient with references to Berlin school and a 1970s New Age aesthetic, The Expanding Universe debut album 'One' is a cosmic journey into inner space.

  • New release from Netherworld "Vanishing Lands" on the Glacial Movements label.

    Immerse yourself in the great north, lost in the darkness of winter nights. There is a green glow that slowly dances above you, it is that of the Northern Lights, which lights the way. Around you, ice-covered volcanoes and endless white and silent expanses. Slowly all of this is fading, day after day, and unfortunately it is irreversible. "Vanishing Lands" is a cry of desperation, it is the realization that we are one step away from the abyss. It is the most complex and dramatic work created to date by the artist and founder of Glacial Movements Records, Alessandro Tedeschi aka Netherworld. A subtle melancholy note unites the seven tracks on the album, which were written, composed and mixed during the time of the pandemic. An excerpt of the track "The Beauty Of Places Where There is Nothing to See" has been feautered on the CD compilation The Wire Tapper 58, included on the world's greatest print and online music magazine The Wire (Issue 458, April 2022).

  • New David Helpling "IN" Double CD, 7 years in the making. Out 15th April

    Several years in the making, IN explodes with the power of subsonic drums, pulsing synths and searing new complex textures. The music at its core is simple and has clear phrasing and elements that connect directly to David’s Sleeping on the Edge of the World album. This is a powerful Epic Ambient release that represents a decade of an artist’s life… this story spills out into each piece as it builds and flows in dreams and thunder. David Helpling - Waves Dream of Breaking The first single from the new double album "IN"

  • New album from Steve Roach,"Zones, Drones & Atmospheres" arriving late March.

    In a masterful expression of subtle, potent ambient-electronic minimalism, Steve Roach’s newest release activates an internal opening of the mythic imagination. The slowly unfolding interweave of zones, drones and atmospheres displays compelling, deeply evocative textural pieces with an interconnected sense of mystery, awe and wonder. The gently engulfing interplay between the album’s nine (7 on the CD) pieces provides contrasts of shadow and light, shimmering beauty and alluring soundscapes stretched into infinity. The revealing of the music unfolds into stately sonic formations of hypnotic weavings, hazy atmospheric swirls and murmuring reverberations. Roach establishes each soundworld through engaging a multitude of techniques and hardware-based instruments with fluidity and grace. Manifesting from the essential foundational DNA of ambient music, this is an album of elegant, deeply nuanced audio alchemy. The expansive minimalism reveals a shadowy and emotional spaciousness that meditates on the enduring essence and power of sound and our place in the center of it.

  • Arjen Anthony Lucassen's Star One - Space Metal. Re-issue out on 11th March. Crank this right up!

    In 2002 well-known for his albums by the progressive rock project Ayreon, Star One “Space Metal” is an exciting project from one of rock's great visionaries, Arjen Lucassen. With its stellar musicianship, visionary production and a simple yet far-reaching concept, Star One “Space Metal” shines bright as a giant sun in the galaxy of rock. “Space Metal” isn't a continuous story or a rock opera like the Ayreon albums. Yet it is still very much a concept album and a journey through Arjen's mind and memory. He takes the listener on a trip where they relive those great science fiction space films that made such an impact on him. Without a doubt Arjen Lucassen set a trend with his Ayreon albums. Especially after the highly successful release of “Into the Electric Castle” many musicians and producers have followed in his footsteps and new rock operas with multiple singers are surfacing all over the world. To ensure to keep the involved voices diverse he used very different sounding singers appearing in the same songs -- different singers for different moods. Dan Swano (ex-Edge of Sanity, Nightingale) sings the low parts, Russell Allen (Symphony X and more) sings the powerful rough parts, Damian Wilson (ex-Threshold, Headspace) sings the high clear parts, and to top it off, Floor Jansen (Nightwish) sings the really high choruses. Robert Soeterboek (Ayreon) sang the backing vocals with his huge smoky voice. Of course Ed Warby played the powerful drums, and Erik Norlander once again added his huge analog synth leads. Arjen also managed to get Jens Johansson (Yngwie Malmsteen, Dio, Stratovarius) who played some incredibly fast synth leads as well. Arjen even succeeded in getting Hawkwind's Dave Brock to make a guest vocal appearance, something no one has ever managed to do before. “Space Metal (Re-issue 11th March 2022)” is available as: Ltd. 2CD Digipak - £17.99 Gatefold 2LP+2CD - £25.99
