Release Date: 05/06/26 - Lithic (Stone Marble Vinyl)
This record will be released
Lithic’ is Laura Misch’s immersive new album, a sonic journey through stone, water, wind and lightning. Building on the ethereal heights of ‘Sample of Sky’ and the earthy intimacy of ‘Sample of Earth’, Misch conjures music from caves, quarries, rock pools and coastal edges, merging field recordings with saxophone, voice, electronics, strings, and percussion. ‘Lithic’ is a meditation on nature, aging and connection, offering listeners a profound, elemental listening experience that is at once visceral, meditative and electrifying. It is a deeply feminine record, tracing the rough and soft edges of aging, the weathered lines etched upon a face, the worn fractures in a rockface.

Lithic’ is Laura Misch’s immersive new album, a sonic journey through stone, water, wind and lightning.
Building on the ethereal heights of ‘Sample of Sky’ and the earthy intimacy of ‘Sample of Earth’, Misch conjures music from caves, quarries, rock pools and coastal edges, merging field recordings with saxophone, voice, electronics, strings, and percussion.
Struck slate, ancient lithophones, hydrophones and geophones create rhythms and textures that feel both primordial and contemporary.
Across London, Cornwall, Hydra and Dungeness, Misch captures the dialogue between human and more-than-human, crafting a record that resonates like deep time itself.
‘Lithic’ is a meditation on nature, aging and connection, offering listeners a profound, elemental listening experience that is at once visceral, meditative and electrifying.
The album’s conceptual foundations are inspired by deep listening practices, eco-acoustics and geology. Inspired by artists and thinkers such as Barbara Hepworth, Pauline Oliveros, Annea Lockwood, eco-psychotherapist and author of Weathering Ruth Allen and David Haskell’s writing on the origins and evolution of sound, ‘Lithic’ considers sound as an ancient material itself; something that can shape and transform over time.
It is a deeply feminine record, tracing the rough and soft edges of aging, the weathered lines etched upon a face, the worn fractures in a rockface.
