Pan Sonic: Aaltopiiri 2xLP

July 27, 2017 by mugwumb

Those who have visited this blog of mine earlier surely know my fixation about Pan Sonic (perviously known as Panasonic) & Mika Vainio with all his aliases. Here’s “Aaltopiiri”, Pan Sonic’s fourth album from the year 2000. I bought this treasure via Discogs few months ago and the seller was kind enough adding some extra with the album, “Selections From Aaltopiiri” twelve-inch promo. Minimal, electronic, abstract is the field we are playing here and this surely ain’t music for everybody’s […]

Youki Noseyama: Matter And Life LP

July 9, 2017 by mugwumb

Well, well, well.. this recording is all about drone. Genre which is very difficult for most of us, myself included. Some may say that this record has nothing to do with music, but as we all know that’s not true. This is actually the first vinyl release from Youki Noseyama, aka Diesel Guitar, that much I know. There’s three pieces of live performances recorded on this vinyl, strange and interesting tunes. Limited to 100 copies with handmade covers and still […]

Dale Cooper Quartet & The Dictaphones: Astrild Astrild 2xLP (green/grey merge)

July 8, 2017 by mugwumb

And here’s one of my favourite Denovali artists, Dale Cooper Quartet & Dictaphones and their latest full-length “Astrild Astrild”. Actually I missed this totally when it was announced but hopefully I found a copy via Discogs (and got this near original prize). This is my fifth album from this group and still I love their modern-cool jazz-classical music. It’s this atmosphere here on these albums I’m in love. This album was released on green/grey merge (limited to 150 copies), on […]

A Cosmic Gift: Hologram LP (cosmic haze) + test pressing

June 16, 2017 by mugwumb

Because I’m a big fan of Richard Houghten this was must buy for me. A Cosmic Gift is a duo by Houghten & Brandon Burger and this is their third album together. Oh, and this was the very first time I managed to purchase A Cosmic Gift album (previous albums sold out within hours). Really hard to describe music on this record, it’s some strange mixture of ambient, electronic, downtempo & folktronica (like Houghten use to label his music). Six months […]

Christoph Berg: Conversations LP

May 28, 2017 by mugwumb

For you to know, I still love to listen some ambient/modern classical/electronic music even though lately this blog has been full of stoner/doom/psych/space/rock/whatever posts. I have aways been a huge fan of releases by Sonic Pieces, these handmade cardboard/textile packaging & beautiful records from awesome artists. Latest release is this from Christoph Berg (aka Field Rotation). I have been following his recording history since 2011 and still I love these records, still I love to listen to these tunes. My […]

Spectral Lore: Gnosis 2×12″ (bronze)

April 22, 2017 by mugwumb

This is record I ordered while sitting on the bus on my way to my grandmothers funeral almost two months ago. I listened this via BandCamp several times during that trip and fell in love with this blackened, ambient/drone, nearly instrumental folk metal record. Never had heard of this band before I got this mail from Throne Records announcing release of this record. On this album there’s one track I could listen on repeat & endlessly and that track is […]

36: Tomorrow’s Explorers 12″

February 17, 2017 by mugwumb

Starting this weekend with latest release by 36 called “Tomorrow’s Explorers”. Smooth modern classical, ambient tunes painting beautiful soundscapes. One of my favourite artist’s when talking about this genre. This twelve-inch is my 11th vinyl release from this artist.. so it’s quite obvious I kinda like these tunes. Tomorrow’s Explorers is limited to 250 copies. I thought this was already sold out but there’s still copies available from hhv.de

Bohren & Der Club Of Gore: Black Earth 2xLP (RE, 2016)

December 18, 2016 by mugwumb

At last this beauty has been repressed and we are allowed to get our hands on this masterpiece of doomed-ambient-jazz. More than once I have been close to the purchase the original version but fortunately I’ve come to my senses. We all know that those prizes on Discogs & Ebay are ridiculous but finally we all can afford this one. I have no idea of limitation of this repress but I think that there are plenty of copies for everyone […]

Tape Loop Orchestra: The Invisibles LP (clear)

December 6, 2016 by mugwumb

Haa, new one from Tape Loop Orchestra. Have to admit that this one arrived few weeks ago but I haven’t had time to listen to it until now. I don’t know what to say about this record just because these ambient/drone soundscapes are messing my mind. I can imagine myself sitting on the bus my headphones on, watching the darkened landscape on my journey to some distance place.. beautiful record. This is limited to 300 copies on milky clear vinyl […]

Gorlen: Knell 7″ (lathe-cut) and Danny Clay & Greg Gorlen: Brittle (cassette)

November 20, 2016 by mugwumb

Few weeks ago Cascading Fragments tweeted that they are selling last lathes & cassettes for $1/pcs. Holy hell, purchased these immediately. Experimental drone, noise & dark soundscapes by Gorlen are way too difficult to explain. You have to hear these by yourself. I love these sounds and especially one of his aliases, Black Thread. More than happy with these releases but that was not all.. there was few extra items included.. I got also Summer Tape (that green cassette) and.. Black […]

36: The Infinity Room 2x LP (red transparent)

November 10, 2016 by mugwumb

One of those artists I have been following for years now. I’ve been fascinated by his music since I bought his second full-length, Memories In Widescreen, about five or six years ago. Few releases I have missed during these years but certainly I’m getting those too, some day. With this one I was little late, didn’t wanted to order this from the states nor from Juno Records so I waited for copies artist himself was going to sell. Surprisingly I […]

Nadja: The Stone Is Not Hit By The Sun, Nor Carved With A Knife LP

November 9, 2016 by mugwumb

Latest addition to my collection is this new LP from Nadja, released by Gizeh Records. I’ve been trying to buy their releases since “Dagdrøm” I bought four years ago. Yes, I like their doomed, drone-filled-shoegazing dreamsludge. I have no idea about limitation of this vinyl but on thing I know, it’s available from Gizeh Records. First 50 copies came with this hand-numbered art print like shown in the picture (well, bottom of the print at least). Recommended album.

The Eye Of Time: ANTI LP (clear & black, color in color)

October 30, 2016 by mugwumb

This The Eye of Time’s album was released about year and a half ago and I managed to purchase it just about a month ago. Third vinyl release by this french artist, Marc Euvrie. Music on this album embrace the darkness, it’s a mixture of postrocking modern classical with ambient & drone.. I was stoked about his previous album “Acoustic” and I love this one. It is strange to note that, this album reminds me of the movie “The Thin […]

Bersarin Quartett: III 2xLP (white)

October 23, 2016 by mugwumb

This latest album from Bersarin Quartett is a great example what happens when you receive your purchase with damaged cover. I bought this white-colored version from some Discogs seller few months ago and it arrived with nasty corner damage (because of lousy packaging). I gave some feedback with pictures to the seller, never heard of him since. Solution, I bought a regular copy of from Denovali and changed the covers. Damn I hate people who don’t have any idea of […]

Cloud Cover: Mirror Me LP (white)

October 8, 2016 by mugwumb

I can’t even describe the smile on my face when I opened the package holding this most beautiful record inside. All these little extras (baseball card, trivia pursuit card etc..) brought smile on my face and every time I hold this record in my hand I’m still smiling. This is an awesome record by Cloud Cover. This record goes to that same category as Kathryn Joseph’s “Bones You Have Thrown Me And The Blood I’ve Spilled” last year.. Magnificent album […]

Puce Mary: The Spiral LP

October 8, 2016 by mugwumb

While visiting the local record store the other day I asked the owner to recommend some records and he did, one was that Ättestupa’s album I wrote about earlier. I also bought two other records and this latest from Puce Mary was one of those. Really strange record, filled with strange tunes and in some twisted way I really enjoy these soundscapes. Noise, electronics, industrial, experimental are the words to describe this. Not bad at all, I just have to […]

Various: Love Grew Rings Around Me 3×7″

October 7, 2016 by mugwumb

I so know that this kind of music does not fit in everybody’s frame but I love these tunes. I heard this compilation while visiting the local record store and the owner was playing this. It was his personal copy and was not for sale.. damn. I couldn’t get this out of my mind so later that day I ordered a copy for myself. This is a compilation (released by Posh Isolation) full of experimental, ambient, noise tunes from six […]

Midori Hirano: Minor Planet LP

September 29, 2016 by mugwumb

Today is a great day to listen this latest Sonic Pieces’ release, Minor Planet by Midori Hirano. Never heard about this artist before and this is what I love about Sonic Pieces, they always manage to surprise me. This Midori Hirano’s album sounds beautiful, it’s an album filled with ambient elements, some may call it modern classical, experimental electronics is what I say. Anyways, I really hope to hear from this Japanese artist in future just because this album surely […]

Stara Rzeka: Zamknęły Się Oczy Ziemi 2xLP (clear)

September 28, 2016 by mugwumb

Woah! I just listened this album through and what a haunting beauty this is! This is the reason why I still keep on collecting records (even though I have been slowing down lately just because of that Terra Tenebrosa’s shipping fiasko few weeks ago). This double album arrived from Poland in sturdy mailer, in perfect condition. Stara Rzeka (as far as I know) is a one-man band of Polish Jakub Ziolek. He is blending different genres successfully in his music; ambient, […]

Alessandro Cortini: Spie 12″ (clear)

August 28, 2016 by mugwumb

Yes, new release from Alessandro Cortini. What can I say, brilliant record this is (like all the previous releases from this artist). There’s two tracks on this 12″ and I find this recording very dark, hopeless.. in other words it’s a beauty. I have no idea of limitation but this is available from numerous stores, for example from following ones Piccadilly Records, Norman Records, Red Eye Records. Grab a copy and step into the darkness. More, please (and soon!)

Sink: Ark of Contempt and Anger LP

August 6, 2016 by mugwumb

Hmm.. actually I did not expected to hear these kind of soundwaves when I purchased this album. Lat time I listened this band they were playing some kind of mixture of droned blackened ambient or something. This time almost all those elements have been replaced with something more like experimental, coldwave, psychedelic, neofolk flavored ambient (hard to say). The most important thing is that I like these sounds. This is limited to 350 copies and available for example from the […]

Pye Corner Audio / Dalhous: Run For The Shadows EP 12″

July 5, 2016 by mugwumb

Then some mind meltng electronics by Pye Corner Audio & Dalhous on this twelve-inch disc. I’m more than familiar with PCA’s music and that was the main reason for purchasing this ep. What really surprised me is that B-side and those two beautiful tracks by Dalhous. A side is fueled with darkness and on the B-side we still can see the sun even though it seems to be little dark… Stunning release! Limited to 250 copies and the source, Lapsus […]

Michael Tanner: Suite For Psaltery And Dulcimer LP

May 25, 2016 by mugwumb

And after blackened, doomed, stoned, psyched records it’s time to sit down and let these atmospheric soundscapes to ease your mind. Latest release from Michael Tanner aka Plinth is filled with ambient, drone, experimental & minimalist folk tunes carrying you some distant place where you can rest your troubled mind. Beautiful record. Limited to 300 copies and sold out from the source, Kit Records but seems that Norman Records & Juno both has some copies available to purchase.. beauty.

Downfall Of Nur: Umbras De Barbagia 2xLP

Big thanks to Avantgarde Music for sending me this copy, courier brought this directly to my door. Actually I ordered a copy of this blackened masterpiece few months ago but that record never reached me so I contacted the label and they sent me a copy straight away. Customer service at it’s best if I may say. Downfall Of Nur, Argentinian band playing their ambient, folk seasoned black metal on this atmospheric double album. Nice one indeed. This album is […]

Latest vinyl release from Facture, Tape Loop Orchestra’s “Go Straight To The Light Of All That You Love”. This sold out in advance, when it was available to pre-order and near the official release date Boomkat sold out copies they had. I missed both dates. Yes, I bought my copy from some Discogs seller and paid little extra for it but this was “must buy” item for me. For those who are interested, this is a beautiful ambient/drone records surely […]

Western Skies Motel: Settlers LP

This may be the most beautiful electro acoustic, drone/ambient/folk release I have ever heard. Months ago I got this press kit to my email from Lost Tribe Sound.. Listened & pre-ordered the vinyl, yeah it was that easy. I got this physical copy last week and I’m more and more convinced that this release from Western Skies Motel will be on my to 3 as this year draws to a close. It’s that stunning, amazing & beautiful piece of art. Limited […]

March 31, 2016 by mugwumb

Ain’t this a beauty or what? Screen printed jacket, clear vinyl with black haze.. Mamiffer and their latest album “The World Unseen”. Still missing their first two full-length maybe just because I found this band via their split release with Locrian about four years ago. This is not background music, these soundscapes are meant to be heard. This colored version is limited to 200 copies (could possible be sold out already) and 800 copies on black wax, available from Sige’s […]

Natural Snow Buildings: Terror’s Horns LP

March 20, 2016 by mugwumb

My first proper release from this band (first copy of this album came damaged thanks to Juno). This is some kind of droned-experimental-ambient-psychedelic-horror-folk-trip to somewhere where time stands still, some place you do not want to be left alone. Haunting and beautiful is this album if you ask me. If you ever gonna purchase any album from this band, let it be this one. Available for example from Norman Records. Recommended. — —

Kumea Sound: Real Music For Unreal Times LP

February 22, 2016 by mugwumb

Speechless.. never heard of this instrument (cupola) Lauri Wuolio is playing on this record, but it sounds way too mesmerizing to even exist. This record floats somewhere beyond ambient & world music, and I can’t find words to describe it. Just check out what Lauri himself has to say about his instrument. Limited to 300 copies and I honestly recommend this, one of my best discoveries via BandCamp, ever. Available from the source, Kumea Sound’s BC page. Check the video below.. — […]

January 11, 2016 by mugwumb

Latest addition to my collection arrived today, Heroin In Tahiti and their resent full-length “Sun And Violence”. This was also one of those “wishlist” items of mine and finally I got it. Strange, experimental, psychedelic, folk, space-ambient or something like that but who cares about styles/genres when the album is as brilliant as this one is. I recommended this album on my “weekly list” months and months ago but it took this long for me to grab a copy.. I […]

Transgression, album that have been on my BandCamp wishlist for ages has finally found its way home (and brought a friend along). If you are a friend of drone/ambient/experimental music, now it’s a time to grab two beautiful records simultaneously. Equal Stones (Amandus Schaap) is offering these two titles, “Hands Of A Murderer” and “Transgression” as a vinyl bundle just for €16 + shipping. Purchasing this bundle almost felt like a robbery.. Beautiful records and this bundle is still available from his […]

Phil Collins yes, but not that one.This is a strange collaboration/compilation of ambient, electronical, kraut, experimental, industrial, etc.. music with artists like Pye Corner Audio, Heroin In Tahiti, Demdike Stare, David Sylvian just to name few. Strange record but some how very beautiful record. If you are interested to know more about this project I suggest you to visit Nero magazine. First pressing was limited to 500 copies and when it sold out there came 2nd pressing, identical to first […]

Haa.. The Secret Cosmic Music Of The East German Olympic Program 1972-83 Volume 3 on yellow vinyl (limited version, 160 copies with some postcards & promo-cd). Strange music from this strange project.. I have all three albums and I have found this mixture of ambient & krautrock very enjoyable. This “Über” limited version is surprisingly sold out but there are still 340 less über versions floating around. Available for example from the source, project’s BandCamp site. Strange beauty. — —

Hidden Rivers: Where Moss Grows LP

November 12, 2015 by mugwumb

Here’s an album from Huw Roberts. Huw uses Hidden Rivers as alias here on this beautiful ambient/downtempo record called Where Moss Grows. Don’t know about you but I didn’t know that he is also a one-half member of Nest (collaboration project with Otta A. Totland) and runs his own record label, Serein. It’s been a while since I have listened some ambient tunes and now I have to admit, boys & girls, experience is refreshing and mind melting. Recommended release […]

And as you might guess, this is not hard & heavy nor blackened metal. this is Donato Dozzy and his latest full-length filled with experimental techno/ambient soundscapes. I just couldn’t resist purchasing this one because I really enjoyed his debut album, K. This white colored version is limited to 100 copies and surprisingly sold out but if you are interested of clearing your troubled minds with some twisted techno vibes Further Records is […]

There’s a good reason why I keep purchasing his records, these are absolutely stunning!. Dark, abstract, electro-ambient or something like that.. I have praised this gentleman so many times before and will continue doing that in the future. Stunning masterpiece of darkened synth-ambient. Initial copies came on white vinyl and It’s quite obvious that these are already sold […]

James Welburn: Hold LP

July 30, 2015 by mugwumb

Ouh! Actually I did not assume this album to this addicting, hypnotizing. I know that the word “drone” has lost its value here but let’s use it still. Drone & darkened ambient, more you listen to it, more deeper you fall. In other words, excellent album. This is available from Miasmah (EU) / experimedia (US). This is limited o 500 copies so there are enough copies floating around. — —

Then we come to this crushing beauty I got from Germany today along some other brilliant records (will post about those later this week). Atmosphere on this (experimental) ambient piece of vinyl is just so intense, filled with unidentified sadness, hopelessness. Just take a look at the cover image.. aarrghh. Listen. Purchase. Not that much more to say than this is available from Bathetic Records and for us here in Europe from Anost (for example). Comes hand-numbered and limited to […]

Somehow I managed to purchase this ultra limited release (only 55 copies on single-sided white vinyl with print on B-side) from Fauxpas Musik last week and I’m glad that I did because this sold out very quickly. Beauty this is, certainly. Sad thing is that there is already one copy for sale on Discogs, for nearly hundred euros.. […]

This is limited to 200 copies (if I remember right) and there are only few copies available from his BandCamp […]
