Extremely pleased to say that next in the quiet details series, with an interpretation of immense breadth, is the eminent Swedish producer, Andreas Tilliander, with Lava.

Andreas has been established in the highest echelons of electronica since the late nineties – amassing a vast discography across many leading labels and multiple aliases. Wide-ranging productions under his own name, Morika, TM404, Rechord and many more – on the likes of Kontra Musik, Mille Plateaux, Raster-Noton, Acid Test and his own Repeatle – has proven him time and again to be one of the most important and influential artists of recent years. Essential live performances have served to enforce this legacy.

Lava is Andreas Tilliander at his finest – endlessly experimental and wildly creative expressions, shaped into a sonic excursion of mind-expanding distinction.

As he says, this is “An exploration of southern Sweden – light, memory, and open landscapes.” And we can feel this from the very first second.

Deeply atmospheric from the start, submerged locational recordings intertwine with gradually evolving synths – creating an introduction that lays out the beginning of the path into this beautifully constructed album.

Trademark acidic pulses emerge through the clouds as the music continues on unabated, and from there we’re led by the hand through the emotions Andreas elicits from his surroundings.

His mastery of his machines is total – analogue richness, digital grunge – recordings from many sources manipulated into fascinating collages – all meld into a cohesive whole by the immense creative vision he possesses.

At times vivid and luminescent, and others dark and meditative – always profoundly reflective – this is an album of vast contemplation, perfectly executed by a master of his form.

As Andreas says:

Recorded primarily with samplers, some shitty synthesizers, field recordings from Hässleholm, old VHS tapes, and the quiet electricity of Skåne.

Special thanks to the fields and roads of Vinslöv, Vankiva, and Hässleholm. To the shores of Åhusfältet and the streets that shaped everything. Thank you for the crystal clarity, the glow, the light, and the stillness.

Street Wise. Vinslöv. Vankiva. Hässleholm.

I feel crystal clear.

Huge thanks to Andreas, a stunning addition to the series.

The artwork was made as always influenced by the music and idea behind the album – originating from a photo from Andreas which was then captured with analogue photography and processed here at quiet details studios.

As usual, the album is presented on the physical edition, a custom six-panel digipack with a separate fine art print too.

The CD also has a special long-form continuous mix of the album, unique and representing the music in its purest form.

remst8 – Coalescence (Bluesanct)

FROM THE PRESS RELEASE:

A mild-mannered engineer by day, Michael Carlson is an experimental computer musician who focuses on drone ambient music and field recording; revolving around tracker programs since the early ’90s, informed and inspired by the eclectic styles of music he listens to. The results sometimes hold the listener in stasis, other times guiding the listener through undefined vistas, always with the intent to reward patience.

‘Coalescence’ is the culmination of several years of exploration, experimentation, and revision. Clocking in at just over 4 hours, it also marks the most ambitious remst8 effort to date. Carlson first composed and assembled the music in quadraphonic using a tracker program. He then re-mixed those tracks in stereo for digital distribution, then re-mixed them again in Dolby Atmos™ for this limited edition USB cassette. Finally, Carlson re-mixed select tracks in 5.1 surround-sound for music videos.

Each format serves its own purpose, and each presents the same journey in its own distinct way.

This long-form journey embodies themes of stasis, dissociation, and ultimately resolution. The listener is cast adrift, held aloft, and immersed in sonic environments that reflect nature and the unnatural. The journey ends as it begins, encouraging the listener to repeat the cycle.

After finishing my live set to close the 2017 Electro-Music Festival in Indianapolis, IN, I was surprised to find Mkl Anderson (Drekka) standing in front of me, expressing interest and appreciation for my music. I had been a fan of his work for a couple years, so it was a pleasant shock that he would approach me.

In that conversation, he suggested I make a long-form piece for his Bluesanct label; something that could be looped endlessly. If I recall correctly, he framed the request as “I want to play it on repeat so I can zone out for hours”.

We have collaborated on a handful of releases since then, sharing field recordings and source materials for the other to build on, re-work, or re-purpose. And Mkl would gently remind me of his original request for the much longer piece.

Several diversions and a pandemic later, I finally pulled all the pieces together into Coalescence. The result represents several years of learning and growth as an artist and as a producer, and I’m proud to finally share it.

Daniel Menche And Andrew Liles – The Progeny Of Flies (Beta-Lactam Ring Records)

Label Description:

“Tres Muscae Consummunt Cadaver Equi Aeque Cito Ac Leo”.

We never met each other and we barely heard of each others solo music. Just a quick and brief e-mail exchange and month later we had an incredible piece of work that stands as one of one of my most graceful and elegant recordings to ever be a part of. I allowed Andrew Liles to mix and compose because I wanted to see how my sounds and noise could be utilized in a more song/musical fashion. When I first heard this recording I almost cried it was so beautiful. Once we were strangers to each other and now friends thanks to this recording. – Daniel Menche, May 21, 2013

Acoustic instrument sounds and noise by Daniel Menche. Additional instruments and electronic treatments by Andrew Liles. composition and mixing by Andrew Liles.

Mixed by Andrew Liles
Recorded 2006-2007 in Portland, USA and at the Bear Den, Brighton, East Sussex, UK.

Picking / Gnarled Fingers – Picking / Gnarled Fingers (Cruel Nature Records)

Label Description:

“This is some heavy-duty drone shit, and it sure hits the spot.”
– Aural Aggravation
auralaggravation.com/2026/04/25/picking-gnarled-fingers-picking-gnarled-fingers/

Gnarled Fingers and Picking are two artists drawn together by a shared love of bleak, crushing, low-end oblivion.

Picking is a new raw doom / noise / drone project from Charlie Butler inspired by lifelong incessant excessive picking of nails.

Gnarled Fingers is an experimental, ambient drone project, relentless wall of fuzz and atmosphere, no escape, created after growing up in Somerset Levels with stories of witchcraft and pagan superstition.

Written, recorded live with no overdubs, and mixed by Charlie Butler, December 2025

Haptic – Ambivalence (Ash International)

Label Description:

Performed by Steven Hess, Joseph Clayton Mills, Adam Sonderberg
with
Mark Wastell (1)
and
Linda Jankowska, Sarah Hughes, Seth Cooke (2)

Late Work I
Recorded by Billy Steiger (London)
Mixed by Olivia Block and Adam Sonderberg

Late Work II
Recorded by Thomas Carroll (Leeds), Will Montgomery (Brighton), Kathy Hinde (Bristol), and Haptic
Mixed by Joseph Clayton Mills

Mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi

Across two decades of restless exploration, the Chicago trio Haptic has earned a reputation for meticulously assembled recordings complemented by unpredictable, often riveting live performances that veer from rigorous minimalism to densely textured, immersive sonic environments. Consistently blurring the lines between different genres and disciplines, their experimental practice has expanded to include installations, soundtracks, and unique site-specific performances at venues such as Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art, Lincoln Park Conservatory, and Hyde Park Art Center, as well as collaborations with dancers, filmmakers, and institutions such as the Chicago Film Archive and the Art Institute of Chicago. Their recorded output has been marked by a similar breadth and eclecticism, ranging from the intricacies of Scilens (2011) to the almost monochromatic hush of Abeyance (2014) and slow-motion dissolution of Sensitive Dependence on Initial Conditions (2024).

Research and development: Thanks to Mike Reed and Josh Berman (Chicago), Thomas Carroll (Leeds), Will Montgomery and Paul Khimasia Morgan (Brighton), Dan Linn-Pearl (Hay-on-Wye), Seth Cooke (Bristol), and Fielding Hope (London) for hosting; Sarah Hughes and Mark Wastell for logistical support; Linda Jankowska, Sarah Hughes, Seth Cooke, and Mark Wastell + Tim Daisy (Chicago) and Rose Linn-Pearl (Hay-on-Wye) for performing; Arts Council England and Arts Council Wales for financial support.

Ambivalence 2025: 28 September, Hungry Brain, Chicago; 2 October, Wharf Chambers, Leeds; 3 October, Coach House, Brighton; 4 October, The Old Electric Shop, Hay-on-Wye; 6 October, The Cube, Bristol; 7 October, Cafe OTO, London.



This is Haptic recording number seventeen.

Lasse Marhaug / Bruce Russell – Re-Make Re-Model (Self-Released)

Label Description:

“Re-Make Re-Model” is the result of a five-year dialogue between Norway and New Zealand sound artists Lasse Marhaug and Bruce Russell. What first started as a friendly challenge during the Covid19-lockdown to re-work selected works from each other’s catalogue – using different techniques and experimental approaches, challenging each other to go to extremes – extended to what is now a double-CD and a 100-page book package of writings and photos. Each CDs has eight tracks, a total of 100 minutes of music. The book has extensive notes to each track (often with comments by the corresponding artist). In addition there’s a lengthy essay by Bruce Russell on the project’s origins and the nature of collaboration and noise making; a photo series by Lasse Marhaug; a series of stills by Bruce Russell taken from a video piece; as well as cover artwork and biographical notes.

“It quickly became apparent to me that the distinguishing aspect of this collaboration was that it was a competitive exchange, an ongoing game of ‘one-upmanship’ in which we each sought to outdo the other in terms of the inventiveness; the baroque and pointless complexity; or the sheer bloody-mindedness of the studio processes which we were inventing to transform the other’s work into something ‘rich and strange’”
– Bruce Russell from his essay

Digital album comes with the book in PDF format.

Label Description:

Holodec – TRU FOLK LP

footsteps, car horns, a drawer sliding shut.
wind chimes, family voices, street corners.
bus stops, parks, a dog barking, a fight on TV.
Los Angeles, San Francisco, Taipei, Oakland, Keelung, San Gabriel Valley, South City.

It draws from a 15-year archive of field recordings that capture the ordinary music of lived life. Rather than aspiring to aesthetic refinement or spiritual escape, TRU FOLK exists at street-level. It approaches sound as a vernacular practice that values what is common and humanmade. The album functions as a record of presence, tracing how people live, move, and endure through shared environments. In doing so, it extends the idea of folk music into the realm of daily listening, creating a document of survival and place.
