Flower Storm - An Indifferent Fate
Flower Storm returns with Seh, the third chapter in its unfolding mythos. If Yek was the first winds and Do the deepening of the spell, Seh is where the storm fully takes shape--five slabs of sonic metal, smithed in rhythm and ritual. Sepehr and Kasra V continue their excavation of Iranian folklore through contemporary club mutations, where thunderous percussion and hypnotic cycles push deeper into a space where myth becomes motion. The rhythms continue forward, but the past lingers in the echoes--deities flicker between pulsing machine sequences, time loops and fractures, and tension builds like an incantation. Trance-inducing polyrhythms collide with shadowy textures and melodies stretch and distort like time folding in on itself; the storm rages on. When it rains, it pours.

Flower Storm - Loves Fire
Do Flower Storm's aural incantations return for another edition of slicing club mutations. Five storming sonic rituals forged in the flames of mythical rites of past times, fortified in nu-club sorcery. EP Do's A1 is a reimagined take on Coil's "further back and faster", paying homage through a smoldering iranian lens along with low riding tornado tracks and ecstatic percussive squalls. Flower Storm's sophomore release heeds the call to the wind. When it rains it pours.

Flower Storm - The Evil Tyrant Has Been Captured
Flower Storm is a new multi-disciplinary project from the minds of Sepehr and Kasra V -- recontextualizing classic Iranian sounds and folklore, with the modernity of each artists aural palettes to create a sharp-edged musical sword. Birthed from the desire to combine contemporary club culture with the deep roots of their nationalities and motherland, Flower Storm is a simultaneous deep dive into the history of their ancestors as well as a nod to underground electronic soundscapes. Their debut EP entitled 'Yek' (translates to the number 1 in Farsi) is a fierce, four track collection of music alluding and akin to the mythical journeys of ancient stories like Shahnameh. New and classic sounds interlay and converse with each other in an explosive yet intimate manner, like flowers raining from the sky.

Arthur Russell - IN THE LIGHT OF THE MIRACLE - PONYTAIL CLUB MIX (PARTS 1 & 2)
Format Notes: 2025 repress, 2024 first-time 12" single release of previously white label only tracks, 140g vinyl, mastered by Simon Francis
Track List:
A1 IN THE LIGHT OF THE MIRACLE (13:26 min)
B1 IN THE LIGHT OF THE MIRACLE - PONYTAIL CLUB MIX (PARTS 1 & 2) (14:10 min)
Release Notes:
FINALLY! The very first commercial release of two legendary remixes of Arthur Russell's "In The Light Of The Miracle". Both are widely regarded as transcendent masterpieces and very much befitting of the title “holy grails”.
These long-beloved mixes are the types you'd wish would last for eternity. With almost 30 minutes of music here, we very nearly get our desires granted. At last, these jaw-dropping mixes are widely available to every Arthur fan in the world. This is musical perfection.
The deep Loft classic "In The Light Of The Miracle" remained unreleased during Arthur's lifetime, finally discovered when Phillip Glass included the original version on Another Thought on Point Music in 1993. As Steve Knutson told us, when Another Thought was being put together, the plan was to release a companion album of remixes that was overseen by Steve D'Aquisto but the project only got as far as these two remixes of "In The Light Of The Miracle".
Some dodgy scans of some centre label designs suggest that Point Music might’ve been planning to release these on a 12" but it didn’t happen. The story goes that Gilles Peterson heard the remixes on a visit to the Point Music offices and wanted to release them on Talkin’ Loud. We’re not sure how many white label copies made it out into the wild, but again, these remixes didn’t make it to a proper release.
These remixes both extend and undeniably enhance the original, elevating it to new heights. The 13 minute remix on the A-side is by Danny Krivit & Tony Smith with editing duties performed by Tony Morgan. As ever with Arthur, the music is almost impossible to describe: is it Disco? Garage House? Avant Garde? None of these tags do full justice to its sheer majesty. You best just listen. Stretching out the original with some unbelievably great percussive elements, until we're in a deeply spiritual, otherworldly realm, it's just too beautiful for words. As many have claimed, it's the prototype for EVERYTHING.
The "Ponytail Club Mix (Part 1 & 2)", produced by Tony Morgan in the mid-90s, is in a more up-tempo style, with vocals higher in the mix, the BPM upped to 120 and the addition of a housey 4/4 kick drum. A 14 minute epic, you could say this is a more straight ahead "club-friendly" mix (but can things ever be that straightforward with Arthur?!) It also has some really interesting vocal parts not used in the other versions, including some vocals from guest poet Allen Ginsberg.
These remixes are part of the same original project that also produced the Another Thought album so it seems only right that they have a sleeve that matches. Thanks again to Janette Beckman for letting us use another of her photos of Arthur and the rest of the design follows what Margery Greenspan, Tina Lauffer and Michael Klotz did for Another Thought back in 1994.
Simon Francis remastered the original audio for both tracks and Cicely Balston's precise cut for Alchemy at AIR Studios ensures this 12" well and truly slaps. The immaculate Record Industry pressing will ensure this incredibly sought-after treasure finds a home in many more collections, this and every year.

Quelza - A Bird With Burned Wings

Quelza - Orange Du Ciel

Quelza - Belly Jolie Movements
In a blizzard of breaks and surrounded by towering slabs of icy atmospherics, Quelza comes spinning into the Dekmantel UFO orbit with an EP of grandiose proportions.
Anyone who caught Quelza at Dekmantel Ten last summer will be well aware of the breakthrough producer's affinity for evocative soundscapes — amongst his keen instinct for dancefloor propulsion its his richly rendered atmospheres that have made him such a vital new talent in the industry and club scene. The curious, extraterrestrial quality to his sound is the perfect fit for the resurgent UFO series, and Quelza has more than risen to the occasion with four tracks that take in the widest spectrum of his sound to date.
The title track 'Pensa Poetico' is a dramatic, 11-minute epic that moves beyond dancefloor rigidity into a fractured zone where rhythms splinter and shudder around immersive dub chords pulses and IDM infused rhythms . There might be the anchor of an insistent, staggered kick drum, but it's a simple tool to allow the freedom of movement for intricate layers of steel, glass, ice and dust before the second half erupts in a powerful display of breakbeat science. It's the most adventurous expression from Quelza to date — a track he credits with unblocking his creative process on the path towards a more honest expression within his production.
This spirit of adventure maintains throughout the EP, balancing cathartic compositional shifts with hyper-detailed scene-building and energy shifts that push and pull with your expectations. Quelza's well-established affinity for dancefloor physicality holds true as he twists and turns through these constantly surprising, nail-biting arrangements. Even when everything seems to fall apart, he'll sense the perfect moment to return to a pinpoint groove. Toying with minimal, modernist 2-step and complex organic percussion as well as choppy breaks, this is the sound of Quelza breaking out into a new phase where anything feels possible and his production vocabulary allows him to land audacious moves with mind-blowing finesse.

GiGi FM - Mercury

GiGi FM - Virgo Space Acid

GiGi FM - Floresta
Tracklist
A1. Calibration
A2. Mercury
B1. Virgo Space Acid
B2. Floresta
Following the first two releases on Sea~rène, GiGi FM returns with “Virgo Space Acid”, a deeply personal and sonically assertive exploration of transformation and healing.
Rooted in the energies of 2025, the Year of the Snake, this four-track EP channels the mystery and intuition of the serpent, weaving together Virgo’s archetypal forces of the healer and the alchemist.
Across driven beats, hypnotic acid sequences, and vocal-infused textures, “Virgo Space Acid” reflects a journey of renewal, self-ownership, and inner power.
From Berghain to The Bunker New York, GiGi FM has long been known for her ability to channel movement into sound. With “Virgo Space Acid”, she refines her craft even further, working with fewer elements yet pushing them to their fullest expressive potential. She explores the full range of her voice, shaping it into textures, atmospheric layers, and even percussion, while separately reworking classic 909 drum machine sounds into something entirely her own. This EP is a statement of both discipline and liberation, where minimalism meets deep transformation.
Opener “Calibration” sets the tone with its mantra-like intention: an invitation to realign and tune into one’s own energy. Built around a driving bassline, nostalgic yet forward-moving synths, and GiGi’s own spoken word, “A breath holds time, calibrates space”, the track creates a moment of clarity before the journey begins.
“Mercury” follows, embodying the trickster, the messenger, the shapeshifter. Playful and urgent, its bouncing synth sequences move like conversations in motion, with rising tones driving the track forward, pushing toward a restless ascension that mirrors Mercury’s role as a bridge between realms, both celestial and internal.
The title track, “Virgo Space Acid”, is the wormhole: the brain battle, the transformation. With a heavyweight 303 bassline, spiraling bleeps reminiscent of birds, and powerful classic 909, it is pure tension and release, an acid-drenched trip through motion and evolution.
Closing the record, “Floresta” is a sensual and grounding moment of reflection. Named after the stage at Waking Life Festival where GiGi felt a pivotal shift in her healing journey, the track mirrors the scene with dub chord sequences, emotional rising pads, and percussive vocal elements. Like the purple and pink drapes floating above the dance floor at sunset, Floresta is both a farewell and a prelude, a misty horizon where one chapter closes and another awaits.
With “Virgo Space Acid”, GiGi FM continues to expand her sonic language, deepening her connection between body, rhythm, and transformation. More assertive, more urgent, yet deeply intuitive, this is a record of movement, clarity, and self-empowerment.
"We are Sea~rène, swimming in-between supernatural tides, forever following the emotional waves of the universe." GiGi FM

While they’ve been active for more than two decades, it’s only been in
recent years that the Berlin and New York based contemporary sonic arts
platform, Soundwalk Collective, has begun to gather the accolades and
attention that they rightfully deserve. Firmly rooted within a
multi-disciplinary practice that engages the narrative potential of
sound within the contexts of visual art, dance, music and film, as well
as tapping anthropological, ethnographic, and psycho-geographic
research, they’ve gained great note for collaborations with Jean-Luc
Goddard, Nan Goldin, Sasha Waltz, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and numerous others.
Building on the back of 2023’s brilliant “All the Beauty and the
Bloodshed”, Soundwalk Collective now returns with “Khandroma”, one of
their most fascinating and singular endeavours to date, which re-engages
their enduring creative partnerships with Patti Smith. Issued by Ubi Ku,
a brand new imprint founded by the Italian Buddhist Union dedicated to
the relationships between Buddhist cultures, music, and sound, across
the album’s stunning two sides this incredible ensemble draws
inspiration from and conjures Tibetan deities, the Himalayan Plateau,
the valleys of Nepal and the highest peaks where the most ancient
Buddhist temples reside, culminating as a sprawling sonic tapestry like
little else. Issued as a beautifully produced, limited edition vinyl LP
and CD, mixed and mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi, complete with a booklet
featuring liner note essays penned by Chiara Bellini and Filippo
Lunardo, and images by Stephan Crasneanscki, it’s hands down among our
favourite releases by Soundwalk Collective to date and not to be missed!
An international experimental sound art collective founded in 2001 by
the artists Stephan Crasneanscki, who was joined in 2008 by producer
Simone Merli, Soundwalk Collective is a contemporary sonic arts
platform, featuring a rotating constellation of artists and musicians,
that, in vastly varied number of ways, has continuously explored the
remarkable potential of sound within the contexts of visual art, dance,
music and film, offering particular emphasis to anthropological,
ethnographic, and psycho-geographic research, examining conceptual,
literary or artistic themes. In addition to their many collaborations
and accolades that attend to an increased ambitious catalog of releases,
they scored Laura Poitras’ film, “All the Beauty and the Bloodshed”,
which won the Golden Lion at the 2022 Venice Film Festival, as well
performed and exhibited at Berghain, CTM Festival, documenta, Manifesta,
New Museum, and Centre Pompidou, where they notably opened “Evidence”, a
exhibition with Patti Smith comprising an audio-visual journey from the
work of French poets Arthur Rimbaud, Antonin Artaud and René Daumal.
While Soundwalk Collective’s output and use of sonority - sometimes
original composition and others manipulated archival recordings - and
context is varied, the project’s endeavours are unified by a focus on
sound as material that is both tactile and poetic, pursuing layered
narratives that address ideas of memory, time, love and loss. Their
latest, “Khandroma”, enlisting Patti Smith’s contribution on one of its
tracks, stands among the most exciting and rich of these explorations yet.
Perhaps the best way of approaching “Khandroma” is through Soundwalk
Collective’s longstanding focus on the discipline of psycho-geography -
a practice that interrogates the impact of an environment’s embedded
histories and meanings on the psychology of the present - as well as the
group’s integration of observations of nature, and uses of non-linear
narrative, as a vehicle for recording and the synthesis of meaning. Like
previous projects that have encountered them traveling extensively
across the world, occupying diverse environments for long periods of
investigation and fieldwork, during which they source materials for
subsequent works, the material roots of “Khandroma” are a body of field
recordings made by Crasneanscki, Francisco López, and Merli at altitudes
between 2,760 and 4,500 meters, in varying locations across Upper
Mustang during 2016.
Drawing the album’s title from the Tibetan feminine deity who reigns the
skies, the album’s two compositions weave a stunning sonic tapestry from
collaged sounds of nature, bells, drones, unplaceable tones and vocals,
and in the case of its second piece, “Chasing the Demon”, the voice of
Patti Smith, culminating as a deeply emotive and imagistic expanse that
taps something far more profound than any of its single parts. As the
collective states: “the album traces the continuous morphing of the wind
into sound expressions. The Himalayan Plateau seems designed to amplify
and echo the encounter of the breaths, the prayers, and the chants
emerging from around and within those temples; amid the sounding of
bells, the turning of prayer wheels, and the billowing of flags. A
resonant musical body that we recorded so as to capture its boundless
mutations; an unstoppable force that cries, whispers, and blows through
and over stones, wood, empty halls and monastic robes, etching an
ever-changing sonic landscape onto the surfaces it encounters.”
Immersive, stunningly beautiful, and haunting, “Khandroma” draws the
ancient and distant into the consciousness of the present, close to
home, bordering on the profound. Issued by Ubi Ku as a beautifully
produced, limited edition vinyl LP and CD, mixed and mastered by
Giuseppe Ielasi, complete with a booklet featuring liner note essays
penned by Chiara Bellini and Filippo Lunardo, and images by Stephan
Crasneanscki, we can’t recommend it enough.

While they’ve been active for more than two decades, it’s only been in
recent years that the Berlin and New York based contemporary sonic arts
platform, Soundwalk Collective, has begun to gather the accolades and
attention that they rightfully deserve. Firmly rooted within a
multi-disciplinary practice that engages the narrative potential of
sound within the contexts of visual art, dance, music and film, as well
as tapping anthropological, ethnographic, and psycho-geographic
research, they’ve gained great note for collaborations with Jean-Luc
Goddard, Nan Goldin, Sasha Waltz, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and numerous others.
