Album: Odlazak [ALBUM]
Track: 1 of 7
Title: Odlazak
Artist: Ex Ponto
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH017
Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 12th June 2026
Physical Release: 12th June 2026
About This Release:
Odlazak – the third full-length from multidisciplinary artist and musician Ivan Masic as Ex Ponto – takes its name from the Serbian word for departure. It’s a theme that reverberates throughout the release as the motifs of departure, arrival and the journey between the two are woven into an intimate personal narrative from 1980s Yugoslavia to contemporary suburban Coburg and back. Odzalak feels like a bookend to a decade of concerted, illuminating visits to the place of his birth and a countenance to the departure that long defined his youth.
Alongside Ex Ponto’s signature mix of electronic and organic textures, Masic has interspersed moments of exchange from his homeland. The haunting sound of the gusle — a traditional Serbian instrument played by his ancestors — opens the album, alongside 40-year-old VHS recordings of family members reflecting on life and death. The cover was designed by long-time friend Rick Milovanovic (TRiC), whilst photographs from Masic’s visits to Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina by his wife, photographer Sarah Pannell, are featured on the inner sleeve. The release was mastered and partially mixed by Belgrade-based Goran Simonoski (La Plant), a collaboration rooted in shared lineage and a mutual love of the darker edges of the sonic spectrum.
Taking cues from ambient to kosmiche, dub to post punk and everything in between, this is a sonic journey as much as it’s a personal one. Part Balkan Bladerunner soundtrack, part Vini Reilly in wonderland, Odzalak is Ex Ponto’s most pointed and heady release to date, equally at ease in the club and at home.")

Album: Bobby Business [ALBUM]
Track: 8 of 10
Title: Giga Touch
Artist: E. Bobby G.
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH16
Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 29th November 2024
Physical Release: 29th November 2024
About This Release:
Research Records teams up with organist and synthesist E. Bobby G. to release his sophomore album, Bobby Business. Once again, the album is primarily centered around the 1982 Kawai DX900, but it masterfully explores more genres than his debut, Giving You M.O.R.E.
Bobby Business was recorded in 2022 after E. Bobby G. received an eviction notice from his beloved sharehouse of 12 years. After moving out, he stored the organ at his workplace, Bakehouse Studios, where his boss let him use the space overnight to record until the early hours. The remainder of the album was recorded in his old studio space, NGBE.
The first track, Ha-Ha, is as meditative as it is glittery, with floating sustained chords. Big Boy and Disco Shift bring back a slightly more polished E. Bobby G. sound—lo-fi library music with bright tones that will appeal to fans of proto-electronic icons like Brian Bennett. Tracks like Lucky Strike and Tropical Dino Ride are video game music dreams, featuring West Coast lead lines and strutting percussion. The second half of the album explores spaced-out 90s downtempo and dub elements, with a distinctive refinement that hides the fact it was created primarily using the Kawai DX900.
Bobby Business closes with Lillian, a sonic dedication to the artists Grandmother, with a more traditional song structure that hints at what Bobby has planned next.")

Album: Ithā Sajā [ALBUM]
Track: 9 of 9
Title: Ithā Sajā
Artist: Khaled Kurbeh
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH015
Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 4th September 2026
Physical Release: 4th September 2026
About This Release:
Ithā Sajā is an ode to dusk, dawn and what’s in between.
Or, Ithā Sajā is a collection of piano recordings I made in my Berlin studio between:
– dusk and dawn
– Hinterhof sununu chatter
– construction site clamour
– upstairs scuffles
– U-Bahn rumbles
– Kreuzberg and Tempelhof
– 2021 and 2022.
wal-Leil [by the night] is inspired by conversations with my friends Hend Alkahwaji and Wejdan Nassif during theatre rehearsals.
wal-Leili [by the night II] is an imagined conversation with my friend Raman Khalaf. An homage to the jurjina rhythm found in folk music of northern Iraq and Mesopotamia.
In wan-Najmi [by the star], one phrase repeats over and over with subtle changes – inspired by a procrastinating artist (quietly) dancing before a (nearly) stretched, (almost) blank canvas, dreaming up a (new but familiar) pattern.
In Ithā Hawā [to fall / to fall in love], a flâneur takes an early evening stroll along the Landwehr canal in Kreuzberg.
Tadāris [terrains] is an ongoing series of acoustic études – played with mallets, objects and fingers inside and outside the piano.
In Ithā Sajā [if it settles / when it darkens], my left hand keeps a steady rhythm while the right one wanders in search of a nocturnal motif. My eyes peek out the window. It’s the first attempts of dawn.
Marking Khaled Kurbeh’s second release with Research Records, Ithā Sajā is a collection of nine piano pieces. The gatefold vinyl features cover art and a booklet of drawings by Ida Lawrence – nine repetitions of Khaled’s upright piano, taking shape or disintegrating as one turns the page. Thank you to Alessandra Peach and Maryos Syawish from Research Records, and to everyone listening.")

Remixers: Bullant
Label: Research Records

Formats: 12 Vinyl/Digital
Digital Release: 5th March 2021
Physical Release: 5th March 2021
About This Release:
Electronic four-piece Big Yawn invites five revered artists to reconstruct their debut album No!, originally released in March 2020 through Research Records.
The remixes convey a unique combination of darker textures and brooding sounds, clearly indebted to their source material.
The release features interpretations from Sleep D, Jay Glass Dubs, Maria Moles, Bullant and Raymond Scottwalker.
Rhythm merchants Sleep D (Butter Sessions) up the tempo and weave their signature expansive production in their fearless take on Reflex.
Prolific producer Jay Glass Dubs (Bokeh Versions) flavours the Body Double refix with looping clattering drums and glitchy murk, creating a compelling arrangement.
Like a drift into a warm gorge, percussionist Maria Moles (Nice Music) inserts gentle sustained synth work into Doodle Damage.
Bullant (Flightless Records) pulls the listener out abruptly with a rework of Skinrat, a house-streaked churner.
Raymond Scottwalker (Fallopian Tunes) wraps up the record with another rework of Reflex, creating a mind-bending, aggressive industrial rejig.
Big Yawns remix EP is a dynamic pairing to No!, entrusting an exceptional group of musicians to adhere to the spirit of the record, yet take it in a totally re-imagined direction")

Artist: Big Yawn
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH08
Formats: Vinyl LP/Digital
Digital Release: 6th March 2020
Physical Release: 6th March 2020
About This Release:
The various sides of Melbourne quartet Big Yawn fluctuate neatly across their debut full length No!. Subtle dub techno delays combine with live drums on Attaboi to formally introduce their clear affectation for the motorik sounds of 70s Deutschland. Previous single Skinrat curiously references off-rhythms and vocal cut ups a la late naughties UK bass music, while abstract jams such as For Whomst channel the adventurous live-and-direct sound of Golden Teacher and kindred experimentalist Inga Copeland.
Heavy low-end bass frequencies and twitches of dub fx permeate the LP, shades of post-punk and loopy minimal wave (Doodle Damage) contrasting with the more jagged dance orientated moments. In opting to close No! with their most expansive recording (Body Double), Big Yawn delve deeper into the tense and ritualistic atmospheres the prior tracks only hint at. The effect seems akin to a snapshot into their lengthy freestyle practice sessions; a process honed and refined here for the LP format. Until their next outing, the relentless groove of Anthem X will keep hips swaying during those sweaty early morning club hours.")

Album: You Are in the Embrace of the History [EP]
Track: 1 of 2
Title: You Are in the Embrace of the History (A1)
Artist: Rafet
Label: Research Records
Cat#: RESEARCH12D
Formats: Digital
Digital Release: 30th August 2024
About This Release:
Rafet studied music from a young age. Tertiary education brought about further teachings in jazz. Growing up in the family village of Miniara (North Lebanon) saw to an inquiry into maqamat and traditional arabic musics post study. After composing for multiple ensembles and performing in various projects over the years, Rafet settles into his own artistry with You Are In The Embrace of The History. This body of work is one that is personal; sighting connection to a land, spirit and devotion to a holy other.
You Are In the Embrace of The History delivers longing with grace, a realisation of ancestral memory with the eloquence of an internal knowing. Finding home in the cradle of the poem, a universal affirmation lies deep within an irregular heartbeat.
The listener is offered an invitation to enter into the vista of expansive harmonic voicings, anticipating resolution. The work is edged by expressions of spiritual jazz and tempered by the scope of ambient musics.
Rafets offering has the humility to pose questions (the illumination and the ecstasy). In the Dead Sea, there are no fish.")
