Is this thing back online now? Anyway: if anything in this image piques your interest, head over to h-s-p.bandcamp.com – last five tapes left at the label (not these five though, they're here with me, but already reserved). Lovely draughtsmanship, design and layout work by @hemligaskolan.bsky.social
Some recent releases from us - ranging from raw, minimal electronics from Finland, crude tape collage from Gothenburg, pan-scandinavian dadistic sound poetry and playful flumrock born out of the Malmö underground. All available from h-s-p.bandcamp.com and shipping now!
This coming Saturday, Hemliga Skolan is taking part in a noise night at Mayhem in Copenhagen kindly organized by Afvikling and Kaos & Stjernen. We're joining the roster as Apostrof together with a nice line-up of local acts ST. agnis, Markus Lipsøe, Bysund and a new yet to be named project. See you!
We've got a new tape out! HSP012 - "Bisarra Ritualer", a split between French noise artist Xeroxhead and our household name Märg. Raw, free-flowing broken textures coexisting with more restrained introvert electronics. Give it a listen here: h-s-p.bandcamp.com/album/bisarr...
HSP011 released last week!
Ut welcomes you to a descending journey in two parts, destined for the ocean bed, its pitch-black abyssal zone, letting the absence of light lead to the darkness further beyond.

Out today - Märg's first solo-offering and HSP's ninth release, "Trädspråk" presents 6 textural explorations making their way through the inner night, through hollowed out tree trunks, dreams of the forest, walls of thicket, following the bark beetle's patterns...
