Internationally acclaimed harpist Alina Bzhezhinska and Ibiza-based producer Tulshi announce their collaborative album ‘Whispers of Rain’.

Incredible album of bleeding-heart catharsis from cellist Oliver Coates, think Arthur Russell doing drone metal with Fennesz, and you’re not far off Coates’ capacity for tear-jerking genius here.

Recorded live at the Phoenix Central Park, Sydney, August 22nd 2024.

The fictitious tour of far-away lands continues, as anonymous artist Glåsbird follows the scratchy, folk-ambience of Norskfjǫrðr with a return to lonely arctic-island sounds. Novaya Zemlya is a Russian-owned island, stretching from just off the mainland between the Kara and Barents seas, with two islands split by the Matochkin Strait.

The first of Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser's exploitive cosmic space rock albums is also the best, and certainly kicks the seat out of the many jam bands that arose in the '90s. Unlike most "super groups" who collapse under the weight of their own hubris, the Cosmic Jokers, who were never really a proper group anyway, almost improve upon the sound of their precursors, namely Manuel Göttsching and Klaus Schulze from acid-jam-supreme Ash Ra Tempel, and Jurgen Dollase and Harald Grosskopf from blitzkrieg psychedelic Wallenstein.

He has been insatiably producing music for over thirty years. He has produced countless indie artists, and has commercially released over 200 albums of his original music.

Different Rooms is a collection of songs and musical motifs we composed, edited, and collaged in the weeks between late 2024 and early 2025. Most of the recorded material was performed during that editing process, except for live performances taken from improvisations we recorded with Jeff Parker and Josh Johnson some time in 2023. In our typical process, much of our material is collaged and combines moments of live improvisation, field recordings, and in-studio experimentation. This record, however, marks an evolution in our approach to studio production.

Rival Consoles has been concurrently in the foreground and background of electronic music since the late 00s; conjuring tense melancholia for Black Mirror soundtracks, playing in front of 10,000 dance fans at Drumsheds, selling out London’s Barbican Hall, and logging an expansive, wandering collection of synth-sculpted albums that explore a myriad different styles and aesthetics—but always with human emotion as their lodestar.

Mike Oldfield’s 1974 album Hergest Ridge – his follow up to Tubular Bells – will be issued on SDE exclusive blu-ray audio in June.

“Power" is the first recording with Echoes Of A New Dawn Orchestra, a group of talented Parisian musicians (widely known for releasing a 12" on Danilo Plessow's Space Grapes as Jeroboam ) with whom Shuya Okino has toured Europe for the past three years as Kyoto Jazz Massive & Echoes Of A New Dawn Orchestra. It is a powerful gospel, Disco and Jazz Funk track with deep lyrics by Vanessa Freeman that inspire using your potential to better the world. The band then recruited Art Of Tones, who has had a string of hits with originals and remixes on numerous labels including Local Talk, Glitterbox, Z Records, and King Street to remix the track. Expanding on the exuberance of the original song, this uplifting Disco House with jangling guitar cuts, slappy bass and thumping drums is sure to heat up dancefloors in the summer of 2025.

The N.Y.C. Peech Boys were a disco/electro outfit led by Larry Levan and Michael De Benedictis. Larry Levan made his name due to a decade long residence in the famous Paradise Garage club, becoming one of the most respected DJs in the 80’s dance scene of the Big Apple.

TWICE A MAN planted the seed for "The Coloured Breeze Is a New Dimension" with the song 'Dahlia', a 'new' track that was written to complement the compilation album "Songs of Future Memories". For three years, the Swedish dark electronic trio fertilised and nurtured the germ bud until it had taken firm root in their musical heritage and began to send offshoots to find new sonic spots beyond any previously built garden walls. "The Coloured Breeze Is a New Dimension" is an organic entity that creates something new by re-combining its musical DNA in various ways. As a result its tracks blossom in many hues of electronic colours.

Amon Tobin drops Nomark Selects, Vol. 2. The maestro of experimental electronic music and sound design connoisseur Amon Tobin is back with a compilation of the songs that were previously available only via paid subscription to his label, Nomark.

The Way Of Time takes loose inspiration from Elizabeth Madox Roberts’ novel The Time Of Man, sampling Joan Lorring’s voice from the 1951 radio play adaptation of the novel. Biosphere’s signature ambient loops, soothing arctic synths and melodies combine with Lorring’s sweet, wistful and deep-south wonderings to create a record that is both deeply human and searching. The record will be released via AD 93 on the 20th June 2025.
