An abandoned cathedral. A gruesome murder. A powerful supernatural entity living in the catacombs. It all comes to a head in downtown Los Angeles. What will happen and who will live to tell the tale? Such is the storyline of Cathedral, the thrilling new album and terrifying graphic novel from director and musician John Carpenter, based on a dream Carpenter had in 2024. Cathedral has all the drama, dark atmosphere, and frenetic pacing of a classic heavy metal record. Especially designed as the soundtrack to the graphic novel, each track corresponds to a specific section of the book. The liner notes included with the album packaging feature prompts for each track, creating a fully interactive experience. Combined with the graphic novel, it’s the closest thing to a new John Carpenter film in years. The music on Cathedral retains all the eerie atmosphere and sinister propulsion of the epochal scores Carpenter created for his films Halloween, The Fog, and Assault on Precinct 13, but this is a much heavier, riff-driven enterprise. Carpenter is a firm believer that music plays a major role in what really makes something scary. That’s first and foremost,” the director says. “It’s all about making the music work.” “This is somewhat different sounding stuff that we’ve done, but it’s done with the same desire in mind,” he adds. “In other words, put this thing on and imagine you’re watching a movie. That’s what we want you to do.” Daniel Davies’ soaring, snaky guitars take center stage on opener “Primeval,” “Elevator,” and the metal masterpiece “Lord of the Underground” while John Carpenter and Cody Carpenter’s synths take the lead on the ominous “Desolation in the Underworld,” the plaintive “Death of the Mapmaker,” and even converge with strings on “Abandoned Cathedral.” Whereas the Lost Themes albums were written as scores to movies of the mind, Cathedral scores the first original graphic novel written by Carpenter, his wife and long-time creative partner, producer and editor Sandy King, and writer Sean Sobczak, published by Storm King Comics. As with all of Carpenter’s musical forays of the last decade-plus, the album will be released by Sacred Bones. Cathedral awaits. Immerse yourself in John Carpenter’s universe all over again.

Kassel Jaeger (aka François J. Bonnet) returns to Shelter Press after Swamps / Things (SP119), Shifted in Dreams (SP144), and the recent reissue of the classicZauberberg (SP068), co-composed with Akira Rabelais and Stephan Mathieu. With this major new album, entitled Sub Re, Bonnet continues his long exploration of the musical possibilities of sound, extending the concrete approach developed at the Groupe de Recherches Musicales (the historic and essential Parisian studio that Bonnet has been directing since 2018) and revitalizing it through an exposition that focuses less on the clear manifestation of sound material than on it's ambiguous evocation.Sub re, in Latin, can mean "under the thing, under the substance, under the matter." It's precisely this direct approach to music, drawing on the extraction of raw sound material, that forms the basis of this album. Under the matter thus signals the concrete aspect of music, but not the concrete that is transfigured, becoming vapor and form, the substrate of an idea. Rather, it signals the concrete beneath the concrete, in the immanence of sounds, in their becoming, as a driving force, like a tide, like a vault of imperious and powerful matter. To achieve this, Bonnet draws on a multitude of sound sources (acoustic, electronic, natural or artificial, created on purpose or found by chance) and a plurality of contexts and occasions to give them form.The movement, a shell, a bell, a spell, for example, was heard for the first time during a concert organized in Venice in connection with Latifa Echakhch's contribution to the Swiss Pavilion at the 2022 Art Biennale, while the last movement on the record, signalmirror, concluded a piece presented at the first Sound Biennale in Sion (Switzerland) in 2023. These elements, formed and detached from their original context of appearance, of the places and people who made them possible and listened to them, contribute to a complex layering of climates and sonic worlds and help create a contrasting album, where density and tenuity coexist in a succession of moving waves, sometimes laden with memories, sometimes filled with regrets, always set in motion by their own morphology.Sub Re also refers to a chapter in Victor Hugo's Toilers of the Sea, a key passage in which the main character, faced with a colossal task, finds himself alone in the middle of the sea, beneath a gigantic shipwreck caught in the jaws of an isolated reef, surrounded by water, currents, and winds, alone to face the impossible. It is indeed beneath the surface that actions arise, decisions are made, and intuition guides us.

When KAYTRANADA left the 2021 Grammys with two awards (Best Dance/Electronic Album for 2019’s BUBBA and Best Dance Recording for “10%”) he made history as the first Black and first openly gay artist to win the former category. The industry recognition was long overdue for the producer who had been building a devout following for nearly a decade. “In my mind I was finally a true artist,” he tells Apple Music’s Zane Lowe. After relocating to Los Angeles, he channeled that confidence into making his third solo album, TIMELESS: “It felt more serious—more legit. I was still having fun making TIMELESS, but making BUBBA was another type of fun where I didn’t really take it seriously.”Like its predecessor, TIMELESS is a collection of club grooves for catching a vibe. It’s packed with guests who effortlessly acclimate to KAYTRANADA’s singular sound while imprinting their own touch. Ravyn Lenae offers breathy seductions on the hard-edged R&B of “Video,” and Thundercat delivers comical disses in soothing falsetto on the jazzy hip-hop of “Wasted Words.” Back-to-back tracks “Do 2 Me” (featuring Anderson .Paak and SiR) and “Witchy” (featuring Childish Gambino) hit an energy peak, their tales of late-night infatuation framed by sultry, body-enveloping production.

Composer and multi-instrumentalist Koen Holtkamp has spent more than two decades shaping a body of work at the intersection of ambient, experimental, and electroacoustic music. Known for his role in the influential duo Mountains, as well as a solo catalog defined by texture and spatial awareness, Holtkamp has long explored how sound interacts with environment and perception. With Nightlife, he enters a new phase of that inquiry, one shaped as much by physical relocation as artistic evolution.After leaving Brooklyn for the relatively rural setting of New York's Hudson Valley, Holtkamp found himself immersed in nature and embracing a slower way of life, a shift that directly informed the album's creation. Rather than rushing into a new project, he allowed the space itself to guide him, focusing on experimentation and play instead of a fixed outcome. Over time, a new instrument emerged from his modular system, built around physical modeling techniques that emulate plucked string sounds. Drawing on a deep affinity for acoustic traditions, from guitar soli to the kora and other chordophones, he began translating those influences into an electronic language, creating music that feels tangible, effusive, and even intimate, despite it's synthetic nature.As the pieces took shape, Holtkamp expanded the project into a kind of imagined ensemble. Composed with specific collaborators in mind, the album features extensive contributions from drummer Greg Fox and saxophonist and flutist Matt Bauder, whose performances subtly reshape the material and draw it toward more fluid, song-like forms, alongside a guest appearance from Ben Vida on synth bass. Yet even as Nightlife occasionally resembles a band in motion, it's construction resists traditional cohesion. Acoustic and electronic sources coexist to create a hyper-dimensional sense of space, with each element deliberately placed in it's own distinct environment, yielding a complex yet inviting setting that feels both otherworldly and completely natural. Much of the album was created during late-night sessions, which became a kind of personal ritual and ultimately inspired it's title. Nightlife unfolds as a series of finely detailed environments, where stillness, texture, and subtle interplay take precedence over momentum. Each piece invites close listening while remaining open and unforced, reflecting both a change in pace and a deepening of focus. The result extends Holtkamp's ongoing interest in how sound can shape, and be shaped by, the spaces we inhabit.

The iconic and influential electronic pop group Ladytron returns with a new album 'Paradises' - their first since 2023's critically acclaimed 'Time's Arrow'.Spanning dance and indie movements since their formation in Liverpool at the end of the last millennium, Ladytron have earned a unique position by carving out new sonic and conceptual space, and refusing to abide by formula or trend. In the early 2000s, the fiercely individual group were placed at the forefront of the so-called electro-clash scene (which now enjoys another revival), but with time, they came to appreciate the pop cultural moment that they had reluctantly become part of.The new album follows a period of renewed cultural presence for the band. Their 2002 single "Seventeen" unexpectedly went viral on TikTok, introducing Ladytron's sound to a new generation and amassing hundreds of thousands of fan-made clips. Their legacy was further acknowledged recently with "Destroy Everything You Touch," one of their most celebrated tracks, featured in the GRAMMY-nominated original Motion Picture Soundtrack of cult movie Saltburn, reaffirming Ladytron's enduring appeal.

2026 release. Lithic is Laura Misch's immersive new album, a sonic journey through stone, water, wind, and lightning. Building on the ethereal heights of Sample of Sky and the earthy intimacy of Sample of Earth, Misch conjures music from caves, quarries, rock pools, and coastal edges, merging field recordings with saxophone, voice, electronics, strings, and percussion. Struck slate, ancient lithophones, hydrophones, and geophones create rhythms and textures that feel both primordial and contemporary. Across London, Cornwall, Hydra, and Dungeness, Misch captures the dialogue between human and more-than-human, crafting a record that resonates like deep time itself. Lithic is a meditation on nature, aging, and connection, offering listeners a profound, elemental listening experience that is at once visceral, meditative, and electrifying.

New York-born multihyphenate LAW D. Soul cooks up club ecstasy on his first fully-electronic effort, Sex, Pills, BASS & Thrill. Prolific as a songwriter and emcee for the last 10+ years, New York-born LAW D. Soul's transition into dance music came as necessity. Having relied on outside producers and beatmakers for his work as an emcee, licensing issues eventually caused LAW to begin experimenting with his own production. From these sessions, a raw, underground classic was birthed. There's no second-guessing here. What you see is what you get. ""Ba D. ada (BASS on Another Level)?"" Pure Miami bass collides with blown-out trap. The title track, ""Sex, Pills, BASS & Thrill?"" Seductive, dark, minimal tech-house where percussive toplines brew like a thunderstorm, ""E D. M?"" Well, that's perhaps best categorized as uplifting, progressive house, but you get the point. Throughout it's brisk runtime, Sex, Pills, BASS & Thrill shines a spotlight on LAW D. Soul's masterful, pitched-down, and cut-up vocal sampling, alongside the trunk-rattling tuned-808's, all-consuming sub bass, and dark hoover synths scattered throughout. The end result is a rapture of pure energy with nods to Jeff Mills, DJ Screw and Major Lazer alike. Sex, Pills, BASS & Thrill delivers soulful house combined with dark techno and new-school bass.

Loukeman, the project of Toronto producer, DJ, and songwriter Luke Fenton, delivers Sd-3, the trilogy-closing third installment of his vibrant, far-reaching, free-flowing electronic music. Since 2021, each album has seen his profile rise steadily, bolstered by high-profile shows along some notable names in dance music, as well as songwriting and production work for A$AP Rocky, PinkPantheress, Dyltwosix, and more. He’s toured internationally alongside the launch of his own series of club nights and earned praise from various corners of the underground dance community, including Resident Advisor, Mixmag, and Pitchfork. The latter outlet pinpoints Loukeman’s “percussive musicality,” an ability to bend vocal earworms from R&B, folk, and pop into restless, imaginative tracks that shift from booming house bangers to wistful, airy excursions. What holds Sd-3 together, like the music that preceded it, is Loukeman’s knack for emotional resonance and a curiosity to go anywhere as long as it’s honest and unforced.
Threaded throughout, the contemplative stretches — like the spiraling guitar on “All Kindz” and “John Bird Song” or the woozy synth and chatter of “What a Rip” — give Sd-3 extra depth and reveal a tinge of vulnerability for Loukeman. He reflects, “I can see the angst, you know, the anxiety in certain songs. I think those are my favorite ones, the ones that are just dealing with love in some way.” That gets to the heart of what makes Loukeman’s music so effective: one can move to it and be moved by it. Sd-3 is further proof of a singular talent, closing one era, and surely just getting started. UPC: 820200277824Label: September RecordsRelease Date: 4.24.26Format: CD
2024 release. Anthemic and fast-paced, the new studio album MG Ultra is Machine Girl's heaviest music to date and offers a boiling-the-frog intro to MG for new fans.

Infamous for cathartic, unpredictable performances and genre-agnostic catalog, Machine Girl's vitriolic, organic following has developed through sonic maximalism and anime/B-horror visual flair.
