8x Vinyl LP Compilation Deluxe Edition Numbered Reissue Remastered
Release date: Jan 15, 2026, US
William Basinski’s landmark ambient work The Disintegration Loops is reissued in the expansive Arcadia Archive Edition, newly remastered by Josh Bonati from the original recordings. Spanning over five hours, the suite captures the haunting deterioration of analogue tape, transforming fragile loops into meditative reflections on time and memory.
This deluxe set features restored original artwork and a new 1000-word foreword by multimedia pioneer Laurie Anderson, who writes: “These dissolving sounds, this emptying space… are taking me somewhere. I am willingly following these sounds, becoming more and more transparent.”
A cornerstone of 21st-century ambient music, The Disintegration Loops remains a transcendent and deeply affecting listening experience.
