New Releases
VA - Vanishing Standards III
The third installment of our bi-annual Vanishing Standards compilation series closes the year of our fifteenth anniversary. As usual, we wanted to have as many members of our extended family aboard as possible, as well as welcome new ones into it. The result is not only the shortest volume in the series but also the first one dominated by atmospheric, yet noisy, tracks punctuated with unexpected heavy hitters.
Get “Vanishing Standards III” on tape (ltd. 100) or digital here.
V0LAND - Innenraum
Symeon Yovev (V0LAND) is a Bulgarian-born composer and experimental artist. His preferred tools are field recordings, modern-day experimental hardware instruments, and obscure vintage sound machines. “Innenraum” documents a session of shared musical exploration and the artist’s first-ever show in his hometown of Sofia.
Get “Innenraum” on tape (ltd. 50) or digital here.

Born Erased - I Am The End Of The World
Last month, our friends from the French tape label BLWBCK released “I Am The End Of The World,” the debut album of Angel Simitchiev’s new project, Born Erased. Juxtaposing his decades-long research of ambient music and longtime involvement in the Bulgarian hardcore scene, the album evokes bleaker, darker, and even dystopian visions by combining heavy electronics, processed and distorted guitar layers, and even live drums.
The tapes are almost sold out. Grab your copy here.
