Another debut joins the MiMi Records catalog. “Olha, também sabes acompanhar a Amália!” is the new release by Leonardo Pinto, an alternative and experimental dive into memory and adversity.
Created in the aftermath of Storm Kristin passing through Pombal, the album blends alternative/experimental rock with intimate field recordings — wind, rain, and domestic echoes. Recorded at his grandmother’s house, it captures a rawness comparable to contemporary lo-fi approaches, where space itself becomes an instrument.
The album features Samuel Lisboa on drums and an emotive evocation of Amália Rodrigues, merging tradition and experimentation into a deeply personal document.
An attempt to adapt Juicy J’s mixtape Blue Dream and Lean – particularly his knack for transforming hedonistic excess and everyday encounters with violence into mind melting mantras – into an apocalyptic mode that pushes the cultural exchange of sampling to an extreme where noise and pop merge.

Special thanks to my friends and colleagues at both the university and the movie theater as well as pan y rosas discos, my family, my partner and my dog; this album is in part a tribute to your support and kindness as I try to make art while also finishing a dissertation.
Prvotním impulsem k tomuto albu, byla meluzína, která se proháněla naším pražským bytem. Bylo to velmi intenzivní. Neodolal jsem a dále to zpracoval . Následovaly další terénní nahrávky, nové i z mého archivu. Vše je sporadicky doplněno hudebními nástroji. Lidský faktor ve skladbě Zlatý déšt, je sám o sobě přírodním úkazem.
The initial impulse for this album was the wind howling through our apartment in Prague. It was very intense. I couldn’t resist developing it further. That led to other field recordings—some new, some from my archive. Throughout the album, I occasionally add musical instruments. The human element in the piece “Zlatý déšť” is itself a natural phenomenon.

Born Vladimir Genadiev, MEION starts producing electronic music and DJing from early age. Common features of his works are industrial atmospheric elements and raw power.
MEION is persuing to bring fresh energy and innovations in bass music and has developed a unique and distinctive signature sound featuring specific heavy basslines, variety of colorful yet deep cinamatic textures and technically intricate yet powerfully kicking drum sounds and patterns.
“Drowned memory”, MEION’s debut on Mahorka, is a mini-album showcasing a more abstract side of his music. Dark, fractured beats and deep, rumbling bass, hollowed by heavy grooves, cinematic industrial atmospheres and raw electronic power, simultaneously induce head‑nodding and submerge the listener in a state of tension where memories clearly hold sway…
elli mia’s 1st original album.
The planet where the girl lived flourished as a member of a star system centered around the Time God’s star. However, it drew too close to the Twin Serpent binary star system, forcing a period of civilizational regression while being ensnared within its gravitational sphere. The civilization, which managed to revive itself by adopting technology discovered on an exoplanet within the binary system, developed extraordinary information transmission and medical technologies. Yet, it built a society that was superficial, theocratic, and totalitarian.
A group emerged that recognized how the Serpent Star System functioned as a barrier, repelling information and domesticating its people. They raised the banner of the Eye, calling for liberation from Serpent rule. However, their migration involved switching star systems before approaching the comet swarm—an astronomical movement that had miraculously occurred periodically until now.
Then, millions of years ago—the song left behind by the stargazing girl from “one cycle ago” was discovered. Written in the same language as the outer planet technology, it conveyed this truth: the Serpent Era always ushered in dawn, though the comet’s approach invariably brought meteorite sacrifices. That they had migrated to disposable artificial planets to survive by minimizing casualties. And the harsh reality that the star of their time had become a black hole, its eyes already closed.

Wahn is an electronic music producer based in Rennes, France, whose work explores the blurred edges between techno, ambient, and bass-driven sound design. His music is built around texture, weight, and duration – where rhythm exists as pressure rather than propulsion, and sound unfolds in slow, immersive layers.
The Drifted series marked a defining phase in his work: a body of releases rooted in rhythmless and slow-motion ambient music, shaped by heavy sub-bass, grain, and cinematic restraint. Each volume is released on a different label and in a different country, turning the series into an ongoing journey beyond comfort zones and algorithmic habits.
Across his releases, Wahn develops a deeply physical approach to sound. Sub-bass is central – not as impact, but as presence – while drones, echoes, and organic textures shape spaces that feel both intimate and unsettled. Melodic elements, often sparse and fragile, offer moments of breath and quiet clarity within darker emotional landscapes.
Whether working in ambient forms or moving toward more rhythmic territories – techno, dub-inflected structures, or hypnotic repetition – his music remains introspective and tactile. Wahn’s sound is less about narrative than sensation: a suspended state where tension, melancholy, and faint light coexist, resonating long after the music fades.
Echo Mist Light unfolds as a dense, inward form of techno – heavy, blurred, and suspended in echo. The music moves through foggy territories where rhythm is present but never dominant, shaped by pressure, repetition, and the slow accumulation of texture. Dub-inflected delays stretch time, while ambient drones linger beneath the surface, anchoring the listener in a space that feels both physical and psychological.
There is a constant tension throughout the album: unease without collapse, weight without aggression. Sub-bass plays a central role – not only as sound, but as sensation – pressing against the body, grounding the mind, reinforcing a feeling of persistence rather than momentum. The tracks seem to circle their own gravity, caught in loops, phases, and residual motion.
Yet Echo Mist Light is not closed or entirely dark. Within the mist, moments of clarity appear. Melodic fragments and restrained harmonies surface quietly, carrying a fragile sense of openness and release. Light does not arrive as resolution, but as something that holds – brief, subtle, and necessary. A glow rather than a breakthrough.
Balancing techno, ambient, and dub aesthetics, the album inhabits a liminal space where repetition becomes introspective and intensity turns inward. Echo Mist Light is music for suspended states – where pressure, doubt, and calm coexist, and where something continues to resonate long after the sound fades.
Composed, produced and mastered by Wahn

Long before her work was fully seen, Leonora Carrington lived in the margins of Surrealism.
First eclipsed by the figure of Max Ernst, then displaced – geographically, symbolically – to Mexico, where her world finally began to unfold.
A world shared with other insurgent imaginations, among them Remedios Varo. A world stubborn, occult, fiercely lucid.
The Acoustic Cornet takes its title from Carrington’s dark, delirious novel.
A book that asks a dangerous question:
Do “disturbed” women disturb because they are mad or because they hear too much?
The story follows Marion Leatherby. Ninety-nine years old. Almost deaf. Living quietly in Mexico, knitting cat hair, listening to the world fade.
Until a gift arrives: an acoustic cornet.
A ridiculous object.
A revelation.
Through it, Marion overhears what was never meant to be heard.
Her family plotting her disappearance.
Her future sealed inside a retirement home where nothing is what it claims to be.
From there, reality fractures.
Women inhabit houses shaped like igloos, cakes, fantasies.
A false doctor presides like a guru.
A libidinous abbess watches from the shadows.
Architecture bends. Time slips. Staircases multiply.
The institution reveals itself as a cosmological trap.
This album does not retell the story.
It listens to it.
Philippe Petit approaches Carrington’s text as one would approach a signal coming from another frequency.
Fragments. Resonances. Distorted transmissions.
The acoustic cornet becomes a metaphor for listening itself: an instrument that amplifies what society prefers to keep inaudible.
Here, sound behaves like Carrington’s prose.
Absurd, ominous, playful, cruel.
A black farce. An initiation.
An Alice in Wonderland whose mirror opens onto the occult.
The music wanders through hidden corridors, riddles, vertiginous descents. It inhabits the space between lucidity and delirium, between laughter and menace. Nothing settles. Everything listens.
The Acoustic Cornet is not a tribute cast in bronze.
It is a continuation.
An echo.
An invitation to lean closer.
To hear what was always there.
And to accept that once you listen this way, there is no going back.
Composed and produced by Philippe Petit

𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐊 !!!! No Problema Tapes version
𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐊 !!!! is a collaborative mixtape curated by Obituary Hermit & ᴋᴀꜱꜱɪᴀɴ ᴋᴏᴜʏᴀᴋɪɴ, designed as a way to bring together different artists from the underground internet music community, regardless of their respective musical genres and offer them a way to experiment and express themselves with absolute creative freedom.
All of the artists present on the tape were asked to make one or two tracks with no limitation at all. This text below was sent to each of them to give them a bit of inspiration, but they were also allowed to decide not to follow the « lore » of the project.
« The world is in big trouble. Giant monsters known as « kaijus » are attacking all across the globe. The ground is trembling beneath their feet, countries are falling, governments are hopeless ; the world as we know it is on the verge of collapse. But as all hope seems lost, a secret order only known as « The Underground » unités once again to face the otherworldly threat.
Will they be able to stop this monstrous menace ? Or is earth doomed for good ? »
𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐊 !!!! is a unique and fun project with many previously unheard sounds from artists you enjoy :)

The original soundtrack we made for Ioana Nicoară & Sergiu Negulici (Reniform) and Cinty Ionescu (Asociația Narative)’s “Ne/Re-văzut Muscel” project.
These are not songs, but background sonic illustrations, meant to play along with AR 3D animations and people telling their stories. Normally, they are designed to play continuously: there are 3 looped audio tracks, of different length, for each “song” – when played together, the overall sense of repetition is less obvious.
Here you can listen to short, ~3m rendered demos. We strongly advise you to download the album, find the 3 images included in the archive, install the Reniform app on your smartphone and use it to see the whole thing. The texts / vocal tracks are Romanian only.

Nouă instalații AR inserate în spațiul urban transformă orașul într-o arhivă vie. Fiecare punct de intervenție devine o poartă către povești personale și memorie colectivă. Cu ajutorul tehnologiei, aceste lucrări nu doar adaugă un strat vizual, ci deschid un altfel de dialog cu orașul în care privirea încetinește, iar memoria se reactivează pornind de la teme actuale identitarului colectiv. Cele 9 lucrări AR se construiesc pornind de la povești ale orașului, reprezentative pentru identitarul colectiv, atent selecționate și desprinse din arhiva artistei multimedia Cinty Ionescu. Aceste istorii sunt recontextualizate de artiștii vizuali Ioana Nicoară și Sergiu Negulici prin animații 3D și sunt incorporate în compoziții audio originale realizate de artiștii de sunet Makunouchi Bento, Sorin Păun și Alex Bălă. Lucrările AR au fost disponibile locuitorilor și vizitatorilor orașului prin folosirea unei aplicații gratuite instalate pe telefonul propriu. Amplasarea lucrărilor în spații publice sau neconvenționale ale orașului a fost însoțită de evenimente, activări și este inclusă pe o hartă fizică și digitală în catalogul interactiv NE/RE-VĂZUT: Muscel.

Nine AR installations embedded in the urban space transform the city into a living archive. Each intervention point becomes a gateway to personal stories and collective memory. Through the use of technology, these works do more than add a visual layer—they open up a different kind of dialogue with the city, one in which the gaze slows down and memory is reactivated through themes that resonate with contemporary collective identity.
The nine AR works are built around stories of the city that are representative of its collective identity, carefully selected and drawn from the archive of multimedia artist Cinty Ionescu. These stories are recontextualized by visual artists Ioana Nicoară and Sergiu Negulici through 3D animations and are embedded within original audio compositions created by sound artists Makunouchi Bento, Sorin Păun, and Alex Bălă.
The AR works were made available to residents and visitors through a free application installed on their personal smartphones. Their placement in public or unconventional urban spaces was accompanied by events and activations and is documented on both a physical and digital map included in the interactive catalogue NE/RE-VĂZUT: Muscel.

It is another beautiful debut in the MiMi Records catalogue.
This time, the project Câmera Analógica presents even the softest hearts need somewhere to rest, an EP built as a collection of small scenes, inspired by the aesthetics of visual novels and the soundtracks of the 2000s. Each track is presented with beautiful lo-fi beats that capture an intimate, quiet moment, where comfort, nostalgia, and emotional pause meet.
The record moves through urban landscapes, lighter weekends, and moments of contemplation, creating a safe space for feelings that don’t need to be explained. The track titles carry personal meanings, yet remain open to interpretation, inviting the listener to find their own stories within the sound.
An EP to listen to on repeat with headphones.

Síntesis boreal
Esta pieza surgió como una experimentación con la idea de los triángulos, sus búsquedas de balance y de síntesis. Me sentía atraída por la energía del sol y los eventos cósmicos como eclipses y auroras boreales, así que los puse a danzar y a atravesarse. Cuando escuché el álbum de Stefan ‘’Demand the Impossible’’ sentí que mi experimentación le venía perfectamente por el juego de voces entre el bajo y las notas un poco más agudas e insistentes de esta obra. De algún modo, veía también los triángulos en su música y los tonos ‘boreales’ sobre fondo oscuro. En ambas obras: la musical y la visual, percibo desplazamientos y formas que se cruzan. Cuando ambos triángulos se encuentran, ¿es el sol un testigo de aquel eclipse o es acaso una fuerza oculta?
– Catalina Villegas-Burgos. (album artwork artist)

It felt unlikely that this recording session would actually happen in Sofia, Bulgaria, but I am really happy that it did and I can share this moment in time. I had played a concert in Sofia that same evening hosted by Tsvetan Tsvetanov of the experimental Bulgarian National Radio program Alarma Punk Jazz. After the show finished I rushed over to the basement studio, AD 57, just before midnight. Sound engineer Yoncho Pavlov generously agreed to record this session super late and we recorded until just before 2 am in the morning. After the session I ran back to the apartment where I was staying with Canadian activist scholar Ezra Winton, packed my bags and rushed to the airport for a flight to Berlin that was set to depart at around 6am.
Despite all the rushing around this recording, the mood and feeling of the sound reminds me of the stars. In certain parts of Sofia there aren’t a lot of street lights and the sky feels close to touch. The mountains that shape the Bulgarian landscape also hold a presence and vibe in the capital city. While playing piano I was thinking of the sky above, the stars and the lands around Sofia and the Balkan region. This project is important to me because of my Bulgarian roots, my father is Macedonian Bulgarian. It was a long road from growing up in Canada to finally making it back to Bulgaria and to finding a path to work on this recording and music in Sofia. I hope that you can feel the emotional resonance in the piano tones.
Another layer to this recording is the fact that recording took place in the context of the Israeli state’s military attacks on the Palestinian people in Gaza. The recording took place in November and the horrifying news coming out of Gaza spanked an intense need to take action around the world. In the week before this recording I had been with friends at protests and events to mobilize for Palestine in Montréal, Amsterdam and London. I was often thinking about Palestine during this recording session and the critical importance of sustaining an involvement and finding ways to support Palestine throughout my lifetime. Walking with and supporting the Palestinian struggle for freedom and against colonialism is one of the essential progressive causes of our time, we must never be silent and always find ways to stand up when Palestine is in the headlines and critically when it is not. I certainly was thinking of my Palestinian friends and comrades around the world who have played such an important role in my life over the last decades throughout this recording, that is the honest truth. I hope that you can hear the sense of commitment and urgency around supporting Palestine that I have carried and acted upon my entire adult life.
Thank you for listening to this solo piano recording from Sofia, it means a lot to me, sending love from Montreal.
– Stefan Christoff.

In the orbital city of KYO, a new dubtechno signal dropped: Outtemporary. Static Flow powered the reactors, a steady pulse holding time in suspension. Along the Driftline, ships slid without thrust, guided by bass and delay. At the Peripher, shadows listened as Echoform folded memories into sound. When systems failed, Aftershape emerged—residual rhythms rebuilding the future from reverberation. The city survived by looping forward, forever out of time.
