We’re proud to announce Non Sonett, the new album by the Christian Wallumrød Ensemble.
The album features stunning artwork by Mamma Andersson.
Pre-orders are now available at a discounted price until the official release on May 8.
We’re happy to announce three Aspen label nights in April at these wonderful venues: Het Bos (Antwerp), Cinéma Nova (Brussels) and De Koer (Ghent).
The evenings feature Oker, presenting their new album Aerial — the Norwegian acoustic experimental quartet bringing together some of the most distinctive young improvisers from the scene — alongside Strands of Lunar Light by Fredrik Rasten & Ruben Machtelinckx: a quiet, otherworldly exploration of spectral microtonality for multiple guitars. The performance is accompanied by a live film projection by Oona Libens, using a self-built three-eyed projector to improvise images with light, depth and focus.
23 April — Het Bos (Antwerp)
24 April — Cinéma Nova (Brussels)
25 April — De Koer (Ghent)

The album consists of two long-form, fully improvised pieces, shaped from the band’s distinctive acoustic sound world developed over a decade of touring. Inspired by meteorological and planetary phenomena, Aerial unfolds as a shifting landscape of light, wind, and tidal motion. Release date: 27 February 2026
Edition: 250 hand-numbered
