Unsettling, dark, beautiful, fascinating

'brilliant, unsettling snd surprising. first track is like the Radiophonic Workshop soundtracking an MR James adaptation. get into it.'

A witches bedroom chimes was my first track I made back in 2019, the closing track on Earth Mothers, it's unlike anything else by CLAIR, it's a response to betrayel and violence, a cathartic magick ritual. This version was initially exclusive to the vinyl, but time has passed, it's time to share.

Polypores has engineered an intricate web of what sounds like Guillermo del Toro's brain on acid.

Sulk Rooms brings the absolute beautiful abyss like fear.

Cathode Ray Tube conjures up an erratic ceremony of DnB style beats and ass grabbin experimental noises

Sulk Rooms Artist
A pseudonym of Yorkshire based composer Thomas Ragsdale the music of Sulk Rooms draws the link between euphoric electronica and smoke engulfed drones.

Slow-morphing textures sequence and cascade, encapsulating intimate moments of colliding sound amongst fluttering arpeggios and transcending synth builds.

Atmospheric music for the head alongside the heart, Sulk Rooms' music captures spontaneous audio mirages and saturated imperfections with an immensely crushing backdrop of low end and harmonic ferocity.

Electric soundscapes and rising techno map Sulk Rooms' universe where panoramic pulses fuel adrenaline charged synths to an overwhelming feeling of rapture.

Polypores
Polypores (aka Stephen James Buckley) paints music with a modular synthesizer, drawing influence from ambient, new age, and experimental electronics. Uncut Magazine described his latest album 'Hyperincandescent' as “Intensely absorbing, ever-shifting through static squiggles, warm blooms of texture, bioluminescent glimmers, and rattling chimes”.

Cathode Ray Tube - CONDITION HUMAN was founded in 2014 by Charles Terhune, founder of Boston's seminal electronic label C-FOM which released 2000's groundbreaking "Boston not London" compilation. Condition Human specializes in electronic and experimental releases from the lush hard electronica of Cathode Ray Tube to the sonic distruptions of Ampron Aubide. No sound too small nor weird.


Earth Mothers

Boomkat: "Earth Mothers" is a quiet revelation, combining new age minimalism with mbira improvisation and luscious cinematic soundscaping.

Martyn Pepperell newsletter (music journalist for Dazed / Mixmag ++)
'This one snuck up on me within my direct line of sight, and it is a genuine delight. Having spent a lifetime living with - and working in - music, Glasgow promoter-turned-record label boss-turned-music producer CLAIR delivers the debut album of a lifetime. Ostensibly existing within a similar constellation to the minimalist compositional work of Philip Glass and the tinted ambient hues of Brian Eno, but refracted though the spectral lens of neo-classical, psychedelic folk, kankyō ongaku and a veritable multiverse of additional forms. Earth Mothers is environmental music, journey music, relaxation music, but without any of the snake oil new age pretensions these reference points are sometimes linked with.
