Tilting saints has meanings two – it could refer to saints askew. But “tilting at” could also be our purpose: challenge the holy.
This 5/4 version of “When The Saints Go Marching In” features clarinet, xylophone, shakers, synthesizers, trumpet, melodica, cello, and drum machine.
“This recording is a deliberate act of listening as thinking, a ritual engagement with sound as sovereign and self articulating. It seeks no allegiance to narrative conventions nor does it ask the listener to tether meaning to fixed symbols. This is sound emancipated from the burden of story, a form of nonverbal divination that gestures toward the ineffable. It does not bow to the logic of colonizers or the formulas of consumerist industry. It is sound standing on its own feet, barefoot on ancestral soil.
At the core lies the concept of zero, not as absence but as the fertile void of infinite becoming. Zero is the resonant silence from which all frequencies arise and return, where hierarchy dissolves and one becomes both interpreter and contributor. This recording is less a composition and more a sonic commons: open, recursive and indeterminate. The intention is not to impose meaning but to generate space where meaning can emerge co-creatively. This project rests on a necessary inversion, to listen as an act of collective becoming.
It is what happens when we stop trying to master meaning and instead make space for it to rise on its own, free from human malice.”
Released May 9, 2025 as free (cc) digital download and beautiful limited cassette edition.
Moki Mcfly is a music producer from Manila, Philippines. He is known for his atmospheric instrumental production which incorporates sound elements from nature and extensive use of jazz and tagalog samples. His fondness for acoustic sounds caused his music to come over as unusually nocturnal and warm. Space and texture remain not just formidable, but remarkably relevant aking inspiration from jazz, folk, and experimental as well as the whole canon of electronic music. He has been regarded as ambient, trip hop, some combination of the two, and expiremental. Moki Mcfly prefers to exercise an ideological distance from the genres he usually falls into, while maintaining an organic appreciation for all music forms and styles. His sound is a cross-pollination of the arcane and the futuristic, where he guides you through his train of thought, displacement and discourse. A swank noise of clever phrases, poetic flashcards and split references, even if they’re essentially about nothing in particular where narration is unspoken.
Noise which is not nihilistic mixed with positivity which is gritty. For those who deal with and appreciate the whole.
Perfection looks unnatural and repulsive, but imperfections are beautiful. Pleasure is painful, but healing your wounds is joy.
The album was created and released during a period of turmoil in this world – a global pandemic, an increasing number of wars, an epidemic of propaganda and false news, ever prevalent ignorance, while the AI revolution is elevating shortcomings of our minds to unforeseen levels. There is so much pain in releasing accumulated tensions and yet releasing them is inevitable and necessary, always leading to a relief.
The Batcave was a weekly club-night launched at 69 Dean Street in central London in 1982. It is considered to be the birthplace of the Southern English goth subculture. It lent its name to the term Batcaver, used to describe the early fans of gothic rock music, who would adorn themselves in Batwing coffin necklaces to distinguish themselves from other goth clubs.

Special thanks Alizé and Aimy who built the fidgets on the artwork sleeve.
Dedicated to all those who continue to create free music despite being more than ever nonsense in such a society.
“To say this is an original piece of music is an understatement. It is a lucid combination of sublime sonic fusion of genres and a piece of music for those who get lost in their thought with the right soundtrack. Giving that vibe of part feeling and part emotion, ‘Origins #5’ feels like a concept for the introverted and an anthem for the subtle genius.
The video has a matching avant-garde vibe and way about it. Meaningless to those who never bother and meaningful to those who are aware of their surroundings, we get an obscure marriage of sight and sound done in such a way that makes it as captivating for the mind as it is captive in the heart.”

Are kiss of promised springtime you. Lonely long makes seem that the winter. Are breathless evening hush of the you. A brink lovely of on that the song trembles.
This reordering of “All The Things You Are” features a jazz quintet of alto saxophone, vibraphone, piano, upright bass, and brushed drums.

From chillax to 100+% now. It’s relatively rare to find techno
or acid on Phonocake, but Dominik Vogel’s work also brings
melodic electronica and an experimental approach, especially
through the production technique with the modular synthesizers
and unusual control devices, basically tearing down the
style boundaries here.
Dominik Vogel has a history as a drummer, songwriter,
percussionist and synth player in bands and ensembles
and has been into electronic music with a focus on techno
since 2000. As an “old school musician” he believes in analog
instruments and hardware, with which he also plays live techno
sessions. You can find his analogue passion withdemos and
tutorials on modular musical instruments on YouTube. He
also uses these instruments, mostly with the help of
unusual control devices or random voltages and modulations,
for the creation of his tracks. In the course of time, he
has released a number of albums and other releases all over
the world, including Der kleine grüne Würfel, RotRaum Music,
AcidWorx, Overdrive and FullHouseMusic.

Sundialll is a contemporary music group based in Taipei and Bandung, featuring vocalist/feedback artist Alica Han and multi-instrumentalist/electronic musician Rama Saputra. Coming from distinct musical backgrounds, they explore new sonic landscapes beyond their borders, embarking on fictional journeys through music. Their process begins with deconstructing rhyme, rhythm, and noise, drawing inspiration from their roots and folklore.
Sundialll 是一個以台北和萬隆為基地的當代音樂團體，由歌手/反饋者 Alica Han 和多樂器/電子音樂家 Rama Saputra 組成。他們來自不同的世界，通過音樂中的虛構旅程，想像一個超越邊界的新世界，從解構來自根源和民間傳說的韻律、節奏和噪音開始。
HUB is an eight-part live album built on free improvisation, centered around the fictional theme of social ritual. It is inspired by gratitude as a transition through the chaos of urban life and the organic social cohesion that emerges from improvisational language. Celebrating the convergence of diverse identities and places, Sundialll collaborates with sound improvisers Hong-Yu Chen (Xiao, Suona, Suling, Clarinet, Chinese Flute) and Dutch E Germ (Drums, Gong, Percussions), alongside dance improvisers Yu-Ting Tu, Naau Wang, and Ouro Yang. With a slow and silent gaze, we extend a welcoming gesture—“Come in, for the boundaries have been opened” (Bubuka).
《HUB》是一張包含八首即興現場表演的專輯，具有社會儀式的虛構主題。它受到感恩的啟發，作為混亂都市生活過渡的一部分，並反映了即興語言所創造的混合身份的社會凝聚力。慶祝來自不同地方和身份的人們的融合，Sundialll 邀請了兩位聲音即興表演者—陳泓宇（笛、唢呐、竹笛、單簧管、花笛）和 Dutch E Germ（鼓、鍾、打擊樂器），以及三位舞蹈即興表演者—凃于婷 、王芊涵 和 Ouro Yang。以緩慢而寧靜的目光，我們呈現出一個歡迎的姿態—「來吧，邊界已經打開」（Bubuka）
FTUR is made of something different, more ambient, dreamscape, soundtrack style than previous releases.
FTUR could be your future or the one of the planet but, even if written, you cannot really understand and/or change it. It’s not tangible.
I’ve decided to make this journey without a plan and a destination and let the beat and the melody flow.
Echoes Of The Void, by the Portuguese project iCe303, is a deep journey through the realm of cinematic music and ambient, evoking soundscapes that resonate in the emptiness of space and soul.
With subtle textures and immersive atmospheres, the album echoes the legacy of Brian Eno, blending minimalism with restrained emotion. The tracks are not merely music, but echoes—fragments of sound adrift in a contemplative void.
A hypnotic, meditative, and exquisitely produced work.
With such emotional precision in his work, we hope to journey further into iCe303’s musical universe later this year.
Improvisation recorded live* Thursday 9th May 2024 (afternoon) at the Cave Heaven in Foucherans.

*What you are listening is a spontaneous improvisation, nothing prepared, no overdub, no mix, no edit except the last track very end which is including a computer bug at various speed…
Some things are burned to remember – others, to forget. When systems are burning knowledge is lost, and the fire spreads. The past is lost twice – first slowly, then all at once.
Featuring clarinet, accompanied by bass drum, hi-hat, crackling fire, and tom drums.
They say that somewhere, an impossible city exists. That its inhabitants never fully reveal themselves. In “Liminal”, this new album, amid mists and flashes, Ciudad de Tar appears and disappears. Marco Avilez and José Tomás Molina trace coordinates toward a place that doesn’t appear on any map.
Marco ’s guitars echo like radio signals lost in time, drifting through distortion and reverberation, while José Tomás’s keys, synthesizers, clarinet, and percussion shape shifting landscapes—sometimes minimal, sometimes monumental. What they create isn’t just music; it’s the reconstruction of a myth, the search for a lost geography.
This album is a threshold between worlds. Those who have seen them live know there’s something more—something that eludes the obvious. It’s not just musical synergy; it’s the understanding of those who share a secret.
Perhaps Ciudad de Tar does exist. Perhaps Marco and José Tomás have been there, have walked it’s impossible streets, have heard its murmur. But in a world that pushes us toward predictable paths, that binds us to the tangible, finding it is no easy task. Maybe their music is the only way to remind us it’s still there, waiting for those who dare to seek it.

The amphibian human gazes dreamily at the love of his life,
the petrified fossils grow patiently into the eons,
the water constantly granulates.
Let’s put our feet in the sand, the sea is calling! Net label musician Iliaque from the Normandy gives us a little, relaxed and artistic time-out, full of droning fluidity that invites us to imagine. Happy resurrection! Happy living on.
We can already find Iliaque’s music on the net labels Enough, Picpack, Bump Foot and Mahorka, among others. And soon two great songs by him on the Phonocake birthday compilation that will finally be released on June 1st, this one with only a two-year delay.
