On the label
A small operation that keeps unsociable hours.
Nocturnal Records signs coldwave, darkwave, post-punk, and slow-burning electronica. Every release ships with a physical artefact — a zine, a poster, a numbered cassette. The DSPs get the stream; the objects stay here.
Music for the hours after midnight.
The roster
Eight artists, one nocturne.
Crimson Moth
darkwave
Long-form ritual electronics for the hour before sunrise.
The Pale Mourning
coldwave
Iced-guitar dirges and stained-glass reverb.
Dorian Tears
ethereal
Velvet vocals over slow basslines and rainfall.
Lunar Ashes
post-punk
Black-leather guitar lines and brittle drum machines.
Obsidian Chants
industrial
Cathedral percussion, sub-frequency invocations.
Sangrium
witch house
Choral pads, blood-red sub-bass, midnight tempo.
Nyx
ambient
Slow exhalations of synth haze and faraway vocals.
Bleak Cadence
minimal wave
Sequenced loneliness, mid-tempo, no chorus.
