Spanning four tracks—Klasis, Caldera, Through The Prism, and Klast—the EP continues Chatwin’s exploration of sonic tension and emotional aftermath. Here, sound behaves like pressure: building, fracturing, then reforming in altered states. Modular synthesis, cello, and distorted textures coalesce into pieces that feel both deeply internal and tectonically scaled.

It’s always interesting to find out what Rosanna’s listening to. Her studio’s been right next to the Cafe Oto for years, so she hears a lot of things most of us never will.

A digital-only release. Like finding an ancient slowed-down music box that plays 1990-era My Bloody Valentine demos recorded on a creaking boat out in the fog. Aquel que buscaba lo invisible by bestias & contradicta, in their own words:

“This series of soundscapes capture, in a dark and disjointed but beautiful way, an intertwined conversation between Contradicta’s organic textures and a variety of sound techniques by bestias, to create an ethereal environment that feels haunted. The appearance of atmospheres by themselves create an abstraction that simulates, in a way, the memory of a room, playing with the image of being/not being there; of getting lost in a faint memory, trying to remember something that we are not sure was there, or if it was real in the first place”.

Here-There-Here by Isnaj Dui

Originally written for a performance at Courier Sound’s Cuckoo Farm festival in 2024 (unfortunately never performed live, thanks to a bout of Covid), ‘Here-There-Here’ is based on a graphic score mapping out Katie’s journey to work and back.
As the theme of the festival was ‘Land’, the score maps out the route by tube, bus and walking, with each instrument taking one route.

I love Black Polygons. Damaged ambient pop.

Time is a strange and elusive companion. Listening to Alan Lamb’s Primal Image/Beauty, the traces of time are deep, and forever deepening. Recorded in 1981 and 1983 respectively, and then revised and refined across the coming half decade, each of these pieces traces Lamb’s personal history through materiality and harmony.
Primal Image was the first composition Alan Lamb completed. Recorded on the Faraway Wind Organ, a long stretch of abandoned telephone line located on his families farm close by the Fitzgerald National Park in Western Australia, this piece resolved an interest in the sonication of wires which had started many decades before.

This is actually a hell of a thing.
