Klaendestine - We Shall Share

CD, 6-panel digisleeve, ltd. 200 copies
to be released on October 31, 2025

The early Eighties in France and the UK: the Post-Punk, Dark and Cold Wave scenes broke onto the music world. Usher San in Dijon, France was starting his career with Coït Bergman, Metal Radiant and as Anthon Shield and DZ Lectric.... and then Norma Loy… and later Die Puppe, Black Egg and even Pagan Ring... He is one of the leading figures of what would become known as coldwave south of the English Channel. Martin Bowes and Julia Waller were starting on their musical path in Coventry, England... Attrition was born... later Julia joined The Legendary Pink Dots for a while while Martin started his own studio, The Cage... and worked and guested with bands such as the Engram side project. Fast forward to now and these legends of the scene finally started talking to each other...online at first, and eventually in person. Bizarre it took so long... Musical ideas were bounced over the channel... twisting and turning over a couple of years until KLAENDESTINE is born.

The debut album, "We Shall Share" is with us now... the initial statement. 6 songs of darkwave explorations. The band is real... there are already two videos, one filmed together in France in June 2025 (by Sébastien Faits-Divers), and one made in Paris by Juan Le Parc and Mariel Evagelista. There are plans to perform live... there are plans for more music... and Fate is Smiling.

TeZ - Black Bamboo IV

CD, 6-panel digisleeve, ltd. 200 copies
to be released on October 31, 2025

BLACK BAMBOO IV continues TeZ's series of electroacoustic and acousmatic performances, centered on the live transformation of acoustic sources and field recordings. Improvisations unfold through the interplay of hybrid DIY tools, traditional folk and ethnic instruments, environmental textures, and archival audio fragments. These elements are expanded and recombined through generative filters, delays, pitch shifters, and harmonizers—woven into evolving feedback loops that blur the line between structure and chance. In this new iteration, TeZ explores an even more introspective and enigmatic soundscape, where ancestral cosmic resonances merge with industrial and experimental currents.

ANDREA BELLUCCI & GIULIO ALDINUCCI - SLOW DANCES AND STILL MEMORIES

CD, 6-panel digisleeve, ltd. 200 copies
to be released on October 31, 2025

"Slow Dances and Still Memories" is the convergence of two musicians from distinct generations — a languid waltz of fragmented memories and fleeting emotions, tied to moments in life, whether they arise from a dancefloor or a remote rural setting, from the hum of the night or the stillness of silence. Electronics here functions much like time itself: they blurs, distorts, reshapes, and subtly deceives memory… A choreography of ancient voices that intertwine in the mind, forming new patterns and unexpected chants.

Gianluca Becuzzi - American Requiem

2CD, 6-panel digisleeve, ltd. 200 copies
To be released on October 31, 2025

The series of double albums by Gianluca Becuzzi for St.An.Da/Silentes, which began in 2020 with "In Between", continues. Like its predecessors, "American Requiem" combines drone guitar with sacred themes, creating compositions with a dark and captivating mood. This time, the theme of faith and death in the land of capitalist materialism par excellence, the United States, is placed at the centre of the work, with the use of a mix of traditional country-blues and avant-noise musical elements elaborated according to a deep and uninterrupted sound continuum that demands immersive listening.

DEISON / MINGLE - EVERYTHING COLLAPSE(D) - PIANO VERSIONS
to be released on October 31, 2025

CD, 6-panel digisleeve, ltd. 200 copies

This is an unreleased and “lost” new album by Deison and Mingle conceived in 2014 /15 right after the recording and the release of their debut collaboration-album "Everything Collapse[d]". After the passing of Andrea Gastaldello (“Mingle”) in 2021 and founding these forgotten tracks led us to think that this work should have been listened to understand the essence of the original album. Published by a co-production of three label who have released various works by the duo in the past (Loud!, Final Muzik and St.An.Da.), the work has been mastered by Eraldo Bernocchi in 2025.

From the CD liner notes: “A few months after making our first album together, ("Everything Collapse[d]", Aagoo records, 2014) Andrea proposed to me the idea of re-interpreting the pieces by stripping them of all the superfluous to leave only the "melodic" skeleton. A sort of reinterpretation of the album for solo piano and electronics. As usual, our fluent, spontaneous, and immediate way of working together led us to complete the work in a short amount of time and to plan a publication. The album was never published because at the same time we accumulated new material that was going to constitute the second chapter of our precious collaboration.Andrea has always been enthusiastic about these pieces which represent his musical ability and sensitivity. Through process of making records together with him, I've discovered a composer of the highest level, particularly enthusiastic about experimenting with me new musical ways, who advised me and inspired new ideas; for this I thank him and I dedicate this album to him.” - Deison, 2025

“Everything Collapse[d] - Piano Versions” is a perfect union of our two sounds: drones, field recordings and processed loops intermingled with melancholy harmonies and piano chimes. A gloomy and dirty electronic sound that turns into an extremely evocative score which is full of pathos. A more ethereal, almost meditative release, playing with shifting textures and minimal tones.

SIMON BALESTRAZZI - SCOMPARIRE

CD, 6-panel digisleeve, ltd. 200 copies
to be released on October 31, 2025

"Scomparire", to disappear.
Vanishing.
Pretending to vanish in a thick fog, never to be found again.
The detachment from one’s identity.
Leaving behind the constant paranoia of what is real and what is not.
Leaving behind everything : beliefs and certainties melting away like snow in the sun.

Simon Balestrazzi's new solo effort calls for the ear to linger on things shrouded in fog, sounds meandering between vision and reality.

Highlighted by the mysterious shots by Adriano Zanni you can now enter an awkward soundworld where nothing can be traced anymore.

DANIELE CIULLINI & LE FORBICI DI MANITÙ - SHADOW CONES

CD, 4-panel digisleeve + 20-page booklet, ltd. 200 copies
to be released on October 31, 2025

Vittore Baroni and Daniele Ciullini met in the early 1980s in the then flourishing circuit of fanzines and mail art, starting a series of collaborations in small self-produced artistic publications and in the sound field, as in the case of “The Cop Killers”, a tape part of the TRAX multimedia project. In 2018, at the time of the vinyl reissue of this audio cassette, the idea of giving a sequel to the dystopian-science fiction "industrial opera" was born, but without anything coming to fruition. In the meantime, Vittore remained active alongside Manitù Rossi in the many productions of Le Forbici di Manitù, which over the years have involved dozens of international musicians as guests, but strangely never until now his friend Ciullini. To fill the gap, at Manitù's suggestion, Le Forbici asked Daniele for various instrumental tracks on which to perform their interventions, essentially of a vocal nature. The collaborative process turned out to be much simpler and more immediate than one could have hoped, leading to the completion of an entire album in a short time.

“Shadow Cones” collects traces of the dark zones in which the stories and memories of the three authors intersect and overlap, taking the city of Florence as a common thread and leitmotif - Ciullini's operational base and an equidistant meeting point between Viareggio and Reggio Emilia - with all its variety of historical, cultural, architectural and landscape suggestions. From the tragic figure of Girolamo Savonarola sacrificed in the public square to the world of high fashion that has one of its privileged hubs in the Tuscan capital, from esteemed pioneers of electronic research such as Pietro Grossi and Albert Mayr who put down roots in Florence to the glories of the new wave scene of the early 80s that elected the city among the capitals of new Italian rock, from the artistic-literary circle that revolved around the magazine Lacerba at the time of early Futurism to the great poets and men of letters from across the Channel buried in the peculiar English Cemetery, the album sends back lights and above all shadows of a city that has never lacked in mysterious and arcane places or in political conspiracies and dramatic events. An (im)possible marriage between song, cut-up and vocal experimentation, ambient-drone and industrial sounds, gothic fascinations and very Tuscan black humor. A very transversal tribute to a city that, as local songwriter Odoardo Spadaro sang, “It's so old and yet it never gets old”.

CD in limited edition of 200 copies, cover and booklet with original photos by Daniele Ciullini. All the tracks by Daniele Ciullini / Vittore Baroni / Manitù Rossi, "A Mid-July Nightmare" is an answer to Riccardo Del Turco and Giancarlo Bigazzi's old summer hit "Luglio". Recorded in Florence (S.R.T. studio) and Reggio Emilia (Rasoio di Occam studio) in November-December 2024. Mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi. Graphics and lay-out by Cristiano Deison.

STARLIGHT ASSEMBLY - THERE WILL BE FIREWORKS

LP, black vinyl // LP, clear vinyl, signed, ltd. 100 copies // CD, 6-panel digisleeve
to be released on October 31, 2025


The London based singer and keyboard player Dominic Appleton, known since the early eighties for his musical activity in the post punk/dream pop band Breathless, and perhaps even more for his vocal contributions to the legendary This Mortal Coil project on 4AD, joins forces with the Milanese producer and sound artist Matteo Uggeri, active from 1993 behind several projects spanning from industrial to post-rock and ambient soundscapes, known for collaborating with artists such as Maurizio Bianchi, Nocturnal Emissions, Controlled Bleeding, De Fabriek, OvO, Giuseppe Ielasi, Lau Nau, Giulio Aldinucci and many more.

Starlight Assembly’s first album, “Starlight and Still Air”, was released in 2021 by the American label Beacon Sound. In Italy the album received amazing reviews in all four of the main music monthlies. It was album of the month in Blow Up and Rockerilla ran a four page interview. Several articles and reviews were made, including a special issue on Foxy Digitalis by Brad Rose.

A remix project was launched afterwards, including old and new friends and fans of the two S.A. members: among the others, Robin Rimbaud/Scanner, Auscultation, Gabriel Saloman (Yellow Swans), Patricia Wolf, Insides, Julia Sabra with Fadi Tabbal, Sawako and Pan American.

The new album, “There Will Be Fireworks”, continues the duo’s complex cross-genres approach to music by melding Uggeri’s intricate musical textures with Appleton’s sweet and melancholic melodies, in this case even supported by the haunting guitars of Gary Mundy (in Breathless as well but also in Ramleh and Broken Flag’s label manager). The tracks on this album are more songlike, the journey more cohesive, with the artists playing more to one another’s strengths. Audio mastering was handled by Martin Bowes/Attrition, making it even more powerful and clean for its publication.
