Extraction 1989 by This Window Downloads Extraction — originally released by EE Tapes (ET06) in 1989 — returns here as a digital transfer from the original master tape . The material itself has a strangely archaeological quality: fragments literally gathered from the studio floor, lengths of ¼” tape spliced together , threaded through whatever machines were at hand, and mixed in a semi‑random, instinctive manner. Some of these sounds reach even further back, with source elements dating to 1978 . This download is sourced from the original master. Extraction pt.1 has been edited for language compliance, making this version suitable for all ages. Review of original cassette release: ★ THIS WINDOW – “EXTRACTION” (EE Tapes, Belgium, 1989) C60 / experimental electronics, tape‑manipulation, post‑industrial ambience There’s a peculiar tension running through Extraction , the sort of uneasy stillness you only get when someone has spent far too long alone with a reel‑to‑reel machine. This Win...

This is not a complete list more can be found on Discogs Below is a selection of other official releases by This Window , covering the project’s audio‑cassette compilation output during the 1980s and 1990s. Much of This Window’s early work emerged directly from the cassette‑culture underground , a decentralised, fiercely independent network of artists, labels and home‑recordists who exchanged music through the post. These tapes were often duplicated on domestic equipment, packaged by hand, and circulated via mail‑order lists, fanzines and word‑of‑mouth. The movement blurred the lines between sound, visual art and DIY publishing — a perfect environment for This Window’s experimental, textural approach. Alongside cassette culture, the project was also connected to the mail‑art movement , where artists traded handmade artworks, collages, sound pieces and ephemera across international postal networks. Releases often travelled the same routes as mail‑art exchanges, reaching listeners, colla...

Extractivism by This Window Downloads She Wolf by This Window is a haunting, powerful anthem of feminine strength and primal loyalty. With the evocative line “Not born from God but from the earth. I am a she wolf and I protect my family,” the track channels the spirit of a woman forged not by divine decree but by raw nature—fierce, grounded, and unapologetically protective. Extractivism by This Window This digital album brings together a collection of new tracks that have never been released before, alongside rediscovered pieces and fresh remixes. It offers a new chapter in the long, shape‑shifting story of This Window — a project that has existed on the fringes of experimental music since the 1980s. Formed within the UK’s cassette‑culture underground, This Window has always operated in the borderlands: part post‑industrial, part minimal synth, part sound‑art, part lo‑fi experimentation. Across decades of tapes, vinyl, CD‑Rs and digital releases, the project has remained defiantly in...

Dance This Way by This Window Dance This Way by This Window is now available to download. Downloads Dance this way. Not a request — a command dressed as charm. A man moves through his evening as if it belongs solely to him. His girlfriend is not a companion but an accessory — something to position, display, or activate when it flatters his mood. She becomes part of the room’s furniture, folded into his social performance rather than invited into it. The power dynamic is quiet but unmistakable: the unspoken click of the fingers, the expectation that she will fall into step, smile on cue, dance when summoned. What looks like intimacy is really choreography. What he calls a relationship is closer to possession. We have reverted back to the Victorian era... Victorian attitudes toward women—where femininity was prized for its decorative and submissive qualities—continue to echo in modern society. The poem “Dance this Way” exposes this lingering toxicity: a woman reduced to a prop in a man’s...

Extractivism by This Window Listen Here Gone Like the Whispers of Silent Clouds began life as a soundtrack fragment — an extract recorded at Morgue Studios in 2026 for a short experimental video. Built around flickering Super 8 home‑movie footage and digital imagery, the piece mirrors the film’s drifting, dreamlike collage: half‑memory, half‑hallucination, always on the edge of dissolving. Gone Like The Whispers Of Silent Clouds from Extractivism by This Window   Musically, it occupies the borderlands where darkwave, minimal synth, post‑industrial and experimental gothic overlap. The foundation is a slow, deliberate pulse: brooding synth beds, cold atmospheres, and vocals that lean toward spoken word rather than song. The arrangement stays sparse and intentional — minimal electronics, icy textures, and non‑pop structures that echo the ethos of the 1980s cassette‑culture underground. Instead of building toward a hook, the track unfolds like a mood‑study: an audio vignette shaped ...

Extractivism by This Window Listen Here Misogynist, a track by This Window, was recorded around 2010, and the piece sits in that uneasy space where affection, resentment, and misread intentions blur into one another. Relationships often carry that dual charge — love and frustration, tenderness and volatility — and when the emotional weather turns unclear, people can end up misjudged or mislabelled. The weight of the word The title carries its own history. Misogynist comes from the Greek misogynḗs — miso- meaning “hatred” and gynḗ meaning “woman,” with the English suffix -ist indicating “a person who does something.” In modern use it can describe entrenched prejudice against women, but the track plays with the tension between accusation and misunderstanding. It hints at how quickly a person can be branded with a word that may not reflect the deeper, more complicated truth of a relationship’s dynamics.
