- Vent
- Recording of Frederick Szymanski's Vent. This is a sound and image piece that attempts to develop a dialogue between sound and movement.

- Recording of Juan Parra Cancino's fA1LiN(n)G. This is a work for harpsichord and live electronics that was dedicated to Anne Faulborn. This piece aims primarily to create a symbiotic instrument between the mechanical and the electronic sound producers, the properties of the mechanisms of the harpsichord, and its sonic qualities as well as the use of the computer as an enhancer of these properties. Using a limited set of musical gestures, the time structure of the piece is a journey between different possible timbres, accents, resonances and frequency zones.
- Shatter Cone
- Recording of Panayiotis Kokoras' Shatter Cone. This is a work for violin and electronics and was commissioned by the MATA Festival 2004 to be performed by Mari Kimura. The title refers to the way the sound of the violin is formed into sonic structures from the impact of the bow's pressure, speed, and position on the strings in combination with their register. The pre-recorded material comes only from violin sounds, transformed to keep the gestural and spectral data of the original sound while losing reference to the original.
- Multiplication virtuelle

The electronics were created using digital techniques to process a reading of Pagis' poem by the singer, Eti Ben-Zaken, for whom this work was composed.
- Libellune
- Recording of Roxanne Turcotte's Libellune. The composer describes this work as the sound journey of a dragonfly and says that this is the perfect time for reflection.

This work includes processed recordings of human voices and various musical instruments. The integration of musical instruments from different cultures serves to illustrate the journey of the dragonfly.

Formally, the piece is based on an ascending semi-tone interval, using 'E' as a tonal center.

This composition presents five short pieces that explore what might be idiomatic music for this new instrumental paradigm. The pieces grow out of two principal ideas: pieces that are compressed and nearly rarified character pieces as well as each movement building up from juxtaposed and inter-related musical statements.
- Earth-Star Songs
- Recording of Leif Brush's Earth-Star Songs. This work is considered a "stitching" of sounds and recordings taken from an array of the composer's analogue constructs and terrain instruments. These recordings have been paired with recordings produced by Jerry Chamkis' Kosmophone. The result is an inexhaustibly complex amalgamation of hard-edged terrestrial and tactile phenomena contrasted by cosmically sourced retro-futuristic synth interjections.
- Digiroom
- Recording of Per Samuelsson's Digiroom. This work was created using the concept of a "room" as an important component. This work was composed and mixed for 8 channel surround sound.

- Invito
- Recording of Per Samuelsson's Invito.

The fact that other sounds naturally fit into this piece proves that not just ordinary musical instruments find it's spot on the musical map.
- Hastening toward the Half Moon
- Recording of Elainie Lillios' Hastening toward the Half Moon. This work strings together a series of vignettes on life's eternal mysteries; murmuring, wandering, yearning amongst the drifting tides of the unknown.

- Speaking...again
- Recording of Elainie Lillios' Speaking...again. This is a radiophonic composition based on interviews with Don, a long-time friend of the composer.

Don teaches us not to take the simple things for granted. This work was commissioned by La Muse en circuit and premiered at the Péniche Adélaïde for the radiophonic art prizewinners competition.
- Et je poursuivais d'autres songes vers le réveil
- Recording of Philippe Gonin's Et je poursuivais d'autres songes vers le réveil. This piece was built in two sections.

- Recording of Peter De Moncey-Conegliano's Repossess Reprocess II. This is an entirely abstract piece that is constructed of concrete sounds from the real world using a VCS3 synthesizer to process the sounds instead of creating them.
- Metallic
- Recording of Abdul Wahid Hasnizam's Metallic. The idea for this piece came from listening to sounds of a music stand and was accidently recorded in a concert hall while the composer was working on a piece. Various techniques were used to play with the music stand, including plucking it and striking it with a pen and sometimes playing it as if it were a string instrument.
- Treno in corsa
- Recording of Michele Biasutti's Treno in corsa. This work is a real time performance with digital elaboration of the sound of noisers (intonarumori), the noise machines built by Luigi Russolo.
