Seb Brun & Simon Henocq – Vallées
It has been a while since we talked about the records that dare to confront. Vallées, the latest collaboration between French experimentalists Seb Brun and Simon Henocq, falls squarely into those releases that shapeshift the boundaries of non-conventional music. It’s a well-organized yet disorienting listening experience that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish,…

Wanu – Magma
Stepping into Magma, the latest full-length offering by Swiss bassist Wanu, is akin to entering a universe where sound defies gravity and flows like molten rock, fluid, transformative, and alive. This album is a monumental blend of ambient, experimental, and musique concrète, a collision that fits so well together. Recorded live in the ethereal acoustics…

Niton – 11
With 11, their fourth album, Niton has crafted a profoundly immersive, boundary-pushing collection of experimental electronica that celebrates their ten-year journey while pointing toward a future of even broader sonic exploration. The Italian-Swiss trio—Zeno Gabaglio (electric cello), Luca Xelius Martegani (analogue synthesizers), and El Toxyque (amplified objects), have long been known for their unconventional approach…

Frise Lumière – Ambo
Frise Lumière’s Ambo is a stunning sonic exploration, a deeply introspective work that transcends conventional musical boundaries. Crafted by Ludovic Gerst, this avant-garde album takes listeners on a voyage through minimalist rhythms, ambient textures, and an otherworldly sonic landscape. Using only his bass, Gerst creates an expansive soundscape that feels both intimate and colossal, thanks…

Fuckhead – Avoid Nil LP (Noise Appeal Records)
Here’s another good one from the recent batch of records sent by Noise Appeal Records. Once again, I am going back into the past and exploring the luxurious Noise Appeal catalog, and the release I picked up for today is unquestionably unique. Those who read my reviews regularly probably already know that this record label…

ParaNoiZ – The Rules Of Free Improvisation CD
It has been a while since I wrote about experimental music on these pages due to some responsibility towards other music genres. A pile of avant-garde releases awaited on the shelf for a couple of months, so finally, the time has come to dedicate a couple of posts to the releases I received from the…

VA – Vinylized Vol.6 LP (4mg Records)
Here’s another treat for all the admirers of experimental music. Vinylized represents a special edition curated by 4mg Records, a non-profit label that releases underground electronic music on vinyl and cassettes. Today, I will talk about the sixth edition that gathers names such as Ján Boleslav Kladivo, Troi Boglesseoure, Imiafan, Richard Imrich, Royal Hungarian Noisemakers,…

Shanyio – Of The Waters / A Apelor CS
Shanyio came a long way from experimental artist to prolific avant-garde composer/multiinstrumentalist. Perhaps this Romanian artist seem like a prolific musician who releases his recordings on a nearly monthly basis, but Shanyio calculates and simultaneously works on several projects at the time. Therefore, it may appear like his albums and collaborations are popping from every…

Fixateur Externe – A Fekete Gong CS (Unsigned / Blastbeat Worship)
Here’s another interesting experimental recording, recently released by Unsigned and Blastbeat Worship. Like many other avant-garde outlets, Fixateur Externe are strangers to these pages, and I previously had a chance to review a couple of their releases. Fixateur Externe is more of a collective than a project, mainly because it gathers various Hungarian experimental artists…

RibaStuka – RibatStuka CD (Unsigned Records)
RibaStuka is yet another experimental noise project operated by the individuals who surround Unsigned, a very prolific Hungarian experimental label specialized in avant-garde forms of expression such as ambient, drone, harsh noise, and musique concrete. The experimentations with audio have been done by the members of the bands called L * mbik, Fixateur Externe, and…

K. Henry Dunham – Sol Evocations CD (Silentes Records)
Perhaps Sol Evocations is a debut solo record by Kevin Henry Dunham, but this experienced avant-garde artist is one of the crucial members of Our Lady Of The Flowers and Radish Brothers. Both projects burst almost equal doses of quality ambient noises throughout graciously served experimentations. Sol Evocations presents thirteen hours sound art installment purposely…
