Hendriks Toth – Wanderings LP [AKTA Records]

Hendriks Toth – Wanderings LP [AKTA Records]

We are proud and happy to present our very first album from the exclusively vinyl catalogue. Our friend and artist AKTA, from the beginning, Hendriks Toth, shares with us his first LP planned in 2 parts in the new year 2026.

With Wanderings (one), Slovak artist Hendriks Toth delivers an introspective, sensory, and deeply nomadic project. Conceived as a sonic travel diary, this vinyl album gathers seven compositions recorded in cities across the globe — each track born from a specific place. Far from being a literal geographic document, each piece is an emotional fragment, an inner landscape shaped by the sounds of the outside world — captured, transformed, and reassembled.

Blending field recordings, analogue textures, granular processing, and subtle rhythmic motifs, Hendriks Toth crafts a sensitive ambient and experimental work. He doesn’t aim to describe places, but to translate their inner resonance: the tension of a Tehran alleyway, the dry heat of Jeddah, the vibrant chaos of Kolkata, the slow calm of Maputo, the urban pulse of New York, the sacred silence of the Pamir mountains, and the restrained gravity of Kyiv.

Each side of the record traces a path :
– Side A explores the East — from the Middle East to Asia — with rich cultural contrasts and organic soundscapes.
– Side B moves toward the Atlantic and remote highlands, in a more introspective and meditative atmosphere.
– Digital bonus, recorded in Kyiv, extends the journey in a darker, more spectral tone — echoing memory, persistence, and resilience (access the bonus track exclusively on our Bandcamp with the code included with every vinyl purchase).

Wanderings is not a map, but a drift. A poetic and emotional meander through a moving world, filtered through the ear and soul of a travelling artist.

The vinyl release is scheduled for February 2026 in the shops of Yoyaku Records store and AKTA Records store.
