Polypores, aka Stephen James Buckley, makes haunted space music using an ever-expanding mound of synthesizers, samplers, and old tape recorders. Bleak, icy drones give way to 1970's sci-fi synth lines, throbbing bass rumbles ominously beneath a psychedelic haze of wistful melody and disembodied voices. The Impossibility was inspired by the destruction of the planet Earth by the human race, the early works of JG Ballard, Tarkovsky's Stalker (1979), conspiracy theories, and places where the rules of time and space are brought into question. It was written and recorded in January 2017. A wonderful album, which comes dressed in a Nick Taylor designed sleeve. Vinyl-only; Edition of 300.

Alexandre Bazin is a composer and a current member of GRM, based in Paris. As an experimentalist music researcher, Bazin's compositional projects are primarily concerned with a very personal seal on a music with emotional power. With Sun Dog Trail, Alex merged several inspirations; Firstly, the influence of experimental electronic music, and more specifically a tribute to Bernard Parmegiani. Secondly, the influence of the blues with musicians like John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters. The end result is an experience that combines Bazin's usual musical fusions with experimental and blues forms, taking the listener on multiple adventurous journeys. For this album Alex used rare instruments such as an EMS VCS3 synth, Buchla Music Easel, Minimoog, and Cristal Baschet. Vinyl-only; Edition of 400.
