Tikki Masala - Dil Ka Desh - out now !

As soon as Tikki Masala first set foot on Indian soil, the rich flavours of authentic Indian classical music inspired him deeply.

Dil Ka Desh ('The Land of your Heart') features recordings from across India of bhajans, street musicians, fellow travellers, nature and temple sounds, which Tikki Masala, as his name already suggests – masala means 'mixed spices' in Hindi - fused with classical Indian instruments and his own eclectic blend of psychedelic, hypnotic electronic sounds, rhythms and bass lines.

Marcel Rocha - Ancient Computer Music - out now !

“ACM” is the translation into sounds of composer Marcel Rocha’s interpretation of the spiritual world of the people who live in deep connection with nature. With this work, Marcel tries to capture some rhythms that have been ‘danced to’ by the people of the earth since the beginning of time and glues them together through the use of sound manipulation and original music performances.These compositions were created by using ethnic and nature sounds, blending them with electric guitar effects and electronic noises.Marcel likes to think of “ACM” as an appreciation of the non-local Universal Mind.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mehata Sentimental Legend - Noum Zeccyou - out now !

Mehatas music explores the subconscious boundaries between light and shadow, vision and hearing, death and rebirth. In a radical fusion of old Japanese ritual music and futuristic psychedelic noise, Mehatas ethereal soundscapes express the transitory states of mind experienced in the fleeting moments when leaving reality and entering a dream, opening the doors to a new era of music from Japan. In his album Noum Zeccyou, the super-future is thus united with the super-past.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ bearstatic - balloon - out now !

bearstatic’s debut effort maps topographies based on personal encounters, sketchy reports and the imagination. Here, sounds familiar, from the cradle of civilization, and as heard from the womb, blow through even the remotest of landscapes.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aos Crowley - Hexennacht - out now !

Hexennacht is the Brocken spectre and witches gathering. It is the dark whispers in the rain. It is the worlds of Poe, Artaud, Novalis, and Lautréamont. It is what lies beyond the wall of sleep. It's the green fairy singing mad lyrics after midnight. It's finding out that thing you weren't supposed to find out…and this is what it sounds like.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NovaGiger - Two Worlds - out now !

From the bleak, industrial wasteland that is the south, to the polarised majestic north, these pieces will carry you between these two worlds and all that is in between. The overall mood of this journey is one of contrast with disturbing elements of distopia but with glimmers of optimism.

These tracks include elements of a traditional ethnic culture blended with modern electronic overtones to give the overall impression of an epic soundscape.

Forming- On the creation, expanding and intertwining of two cultures, two landscapes, and one world. Being- On the steady evolution of aspects of life and existence in the changing world.Dispersing- On the slow merging and eventual decay of the world, with the possibility of a new emergence of life and hope.

Mikans - " Number 2"

"This new release from Mikans comes from recordings made in the summer and autumn of 2010 in Japan and England. From the floating but powerful 'Redemption', through the atmospheric 'The Web', the evocative 'City at the Edge of the World', conjuring and contrasting city and country life in Japan, to 'The Way Back' with its combination of Japanese traditional instruments and electronics, this collection of songs exhibits traits from both countries.

With this second release, Mikans is also appreciating both acoustic and electronic elements in the nurturing of his creations."

Siamgda - Tribal Gathering

Siamgda returns with his second solo album "Tribal Gathering", showing development and diversity to his music with this thrilling new piece of work.

As thick in tribal drums as in dense, dark soundscapes, "Tribal Gathering" mesmerises with Siamgda's potent raw and percussive elements, ethnic Asian influence and distorted, loop-driven sequences.

Tribal and ethnic, spiritual and dark, with intricate rhythms, flowing through mystic layers of ambient textures, Siamgda has created yet another uniquely hypnotic and trancey vibe - diverse, mind-opening and unexpected.

Subterrestrial - Lake Tahoe

Formed some 2 million years ago by glacial action, Lake Tahoe is one of the world's deepest and largest alpine lakes. It is an area of unprecedented natural beauty and is something of a muse to San Francisco Bay Area experimental ambient artist Subterrestrial.

The album of the same name was composed and performed using acoustic (albeit sampler based) instruments and sounds exclusively. Drawing influence from dark ambient, darkwave, ethereal and world music, "Lake Tahoe" conveys the profound, divine natural beauty of the region that inspired it.

Neti Neti - Live at Nirvana

'Live at Nirvana' is Neti Neti's debut release. The tracks where recorded during the summers of 2007 and 2008 in Berlin.

It's a unique mix of distorted tabla, skillfully played guitar and noisy soundscapes based on Indian drones.

Mikans - Kaon

Mikans inception began in a little apartment in Yugawara, Japan. Its founding member, Matt Baker, originally from the UK, has been an avid writer of ambient music for many years. His experiences of Japan imprinted themselves on his music. He succeeds with a fine sensitivity to capture the subtle moods that Japan has left on his memories.

In an age of permanent noise and nuisances from our hectic surroundings, Mikans meditative, drifting soundscapes evoke a reflective atmosphere that calms down and tranquils the mind - balancing loud with quiet, energy with calm.

Siamgda feat.Morty - Beach Tracks

A special collaboration between Siamgda and Morty, senior composer of mystical music, vocalist and flute player rooted in the old Persian tradition (voice, flute, self-made saxophone).

These two artists happened to meet by the sea in India, and right there created this unique synthesis of ancient, oriental, ritual, yet new and authentic 'world' sounds.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Siamgda - Samsara

"Samsara" is Siamgda's first release, a unique blend of Eastern drumming, ethnic sounds and electronic noises.

"These compositions are impressions of my living, studying and travelling as a foreigner in Nepal and India, the way I see, feel and hear life to be - colourful, mystical, rough, noisy, dark, meditative...

Transporting and melting the experience of myself and my surroundings into sound is all I do, no politics in any way!"
