Magic & Myth / Inner Space release
Some serious talent up for grabs with two new releases on Subexotic.
Swansither's debut album on Subexotic INNER SPACE is a helter-skelter of chunky electronic delights. It's clear Tom is going places, and judging by this he's in a hurry! Don't hang about - numbers are strictly limited on this one..
Wonderful Beasts briefly assume physical form with a gorgeous coloured transparent vinyl. MAGIC & MYTH is a beautifully presented array of delicate folk guitar manipulations and found sounds, filled with hope and tenderness.
Release day is the 20th May 2022. Do not miss this either of these stunning new works..
Pluhm & Audio Obscura Vs Black Sonar debut on Subexotic
Friday 29th April sees Subexotic premiering some superb music from Italy.. and Norfolk.
First up, we have a sensational new album from Varese based artist Pluhm - 'Canzoni Di Buio E Luce' (Songs of Dark and Light). This is an immersive musical expression through a seductive blend of hazy ambient drone and neoclassical piano phrases. The tone is an intriguing blend of distant and flawed textures, and we become slowly gripped as it masterfully builds to a succession of warmly melancholic crescendos.
Secondly, a spell-binding collaboration between the band Black Sonar (based in Rome & Florence), and Audio Obscura (Norfolk) 'A Scream from Outer Space', investigates the phenomena around the 1977 Voyager Space probe launches. In one sense, this is a fascinating psycho-geographical essay on deep space exploration. The result is a rich & evocative tapestry of musicality that draws the listener in.
Both albums come as special edition compact disc and download.
Simon Klee lights the way
Klee returns to Subexotic with his compelling new solo album - The Light Of Elevation.
Charting its way through a sequence of disorientating themes, including invasive therapy, collective mental transcendency, and blissful states of consciousness, each section unfolds to reveal an overload of mind-bending altered states. This fresh and daring twist on uplifting 'synth-pop' proves to be an exhilarating evolution in Klee's ever expanding musical journey.
The CD special edition is available via the Subexotic shop, with digital on Bandcamp.
A brace of DVS & COI coming soon
Dogs Versus Shadows THE LULL OF THE LEY CD
Includes limited edition CD with illustrated booklet - feat the writing of Pylon’s muse Lady Liminal. This is a fascinating mixed media collaboration, not to mention an outstanding album.
The Central Office of Information SHADOW WORK vinyl LP
COI delivers a hotly anticipated slice of “future-hauntism”. Cargill is at his self-assured best, including masterful spoken word contributions from the inimitable Bob Fischer and the unmissable DJ Space Terrapin. This is a delight.

Mirror Radius arrives
Preston Parris (aka preston.outatime) has joined forces with Subexotic with his third studio album Mirror Radius. This is a beautfully conceived, kaleidoscopic, mature work that seeks to contemplate some big philosophical ideas, taking a deep look at being lost as a positive thing, especially when exploring the natural world.
A special edition compact disc is also available, including a double slipcase design with cutout panel, 6 panel inlay, high quality replicated disc, and releases on Friday 17th December.
Surroundings - Special Edition CD
Goodparley & Ioan Morris have conjured up a marvellous set of "electronic tone poems", expressing deep aural musings of the world. Built from Morris’ synth soundscapes and augmented by Goodparley’s layers of improvised guitar, reflecting both the isolation of the album’s creation during lockdown, but also optimism of returning to the wider world.
The special edition Compact Disc release goes on pre-order on 5th November, for release on 26th November 2021, and includes a striking double slipcase design, with a 6 panel inlay, an artist portrait postcard, and high quality replicated CD.
