Update!

"What's going on with my favourite netlabel?" You may find yourself asking..

Well..

+ Due to bandcamp's silly free download policy, we had some hiccups for a while, which seem to be sorted.. for now.. + We're currently doing ARTIST SCOUTS! Which means that if you or anyone you know would make a perfect addition to our lovely little family, please don't hesitate to contact us or send your demos to [email protected] + We're in the process of trying to migrate to a more 'user-friendly' website, or 'meeting ground' if you will.. like bandcamp, or archive dot org etc. If anyone has a lead on that PLEASE drop us a line! + We also have some exciting things lined up for the next few months - one of which will be our very first compilation for our VERY FIRST BIRTHDAY! It’s going to be called MoonSongs Vol. 1 and YOU’RE INVITED!

More info soon!

Thank you all for looking, listening and feeling <3

MSR018 - Her Stems Spiral - House of Frozen Butterflies (EP)

Released 08/28/14

Johannesburg based experimental artist Her Stems Spiral is back with a survival-horror-film-score inspired EP titled 'House of Frozen Butterflies'.

"Loosely based on events which occurred in the horror video-game franchise Fatal Frame/Project Zero, it follows the protagonist Mio, in search of her younger sister, Mayu, who has wandered off into an abandoned mansion. Mio must encounter the spirits who dwell here, and capture them with her Camera Obscura, upon rescuing her sister from the evil which resides in this house. Mixing sound design into music, like a film without the screen, Her Stems Spiral ventures into unknown territory, introducing yet another genre shift - from trip-hop to space-rock and much more!"
