We are pleased to present to you two new editions made with our participation. After a long hibernation our label
Muzyka Voln is back in business! Together with the Moscow publishing house
Frozen Light, we released a new album of drone-ambient project
Exit In Grey and we strongly recommend to plunge into the abyss of its melancholic contemplative harmonies!
The second release is a joint venture between the
Electrotapes Archive and
ZHELEZOBETON Distribution Division, a new full-length work by the folk ambient project
Mira Drevo, dedicated to many abandoned villages of the Russian North. Authentic field recordings, minimalistic electronics and soulful female vocals will tell you the tales of the impermanence of existence...
Over the past two months, our distro-catalog has been replenished with a considerable number of various editions – the new releases by the Russian labels
Nazlo Records,
MIC Label,
BioSonar^Lo-End,
NEN Records,
