Dark Circuits Orchestra plays Phill Niblock :: Modulisme Session 137 (Modulisme)
What makes this recording so powerful is its fidelity to Niblock’s core philosophy. His music was never about spectacle. It was about perception. It required deep listening and patience. In a culture of distraction, his work insisted on duration and attention. Dark Circuits Orchestra honors that commitment.
Philippe Petit :: The Acoustic Cornet, an hommage to Leonora Carrington (Mahorka)
After first encountering Philippe Petit through The Haunting Triptych (2010), The Acoustic Cornet—released by Mahorka as a tribute to Leonora Carrington—emerges as a radical electro-acoustic work of abstract, collage-driven experimentation that fuses manipulated objects, elastic electronics, and avant-garde improvisation into a richly unpredictable sonic experience.

V/A :: Tone Science Module No.5 Integers and Quotients (DiN)
