This Chicago psych duo has been around for a good while- partners Joshua and Eliza have been releasing songs as Glyders for a decade before releasing their full length debut in 2023, Maria’s Hunt. As a fan of cosmic country and ambient Americana, this long awaited […]

Møster is an eponymous Norwegian supergroup that forms around the woodwinds legend Kjetil Møster. He’s joined by the one and only Hans Magnus Ryan, vocalist and guitarist for historic prog/psych group Motorpsycho. A rhythm section featuring members of Motorpsycho and Elephant9 rounds it out nicely. In short: some of my favorite musicians on the planet. […]

Towering Inferno With Bongo Drums? Sign me up on the name alone. This is a new group from blog favorite guitarist Dave Harrington of the legendary DARKSIDE (and many more.) It’s a jazzy jammer that sits between Harrington’s more psychedelic work and his jazz fusion. In […]
Amazing debut album by an anonymous South Korean musician now known as Mid-Air Thief. Gongjoongdoduk is stunning folktronica with incredible production and playing. It’s a very psychedelic record and as influenced as it is by edgier folktronica/prog pop artists like Tavito Nanao, Mid-Air Thief has a […]
This is an contemporary jazz/fusion record that simply cannot be missed. Forever Forever is essential. Singer, songwriter, bandleader and LA jazz luminary Genevieve Artadis third album is a passionate and danceable work of hyper modern jazz pop. The core of the album is classic romantic jazz […]
The final record by the duo of trumpeter Jamie Branch and her longtime collaborator, percussionist Jason Nazary. Rest in peace Jamie. Anteloper is a particularly genre-defying project from the seemingly limitless creativity and improvisation of Jamie Branch. This group in particular is characterized by both musicians […]

An essentially Seattle record consisting of two side-length studio improvisations. Unedited, and remastered by the legend Scott Colburn on Debacle Records for the reissue. King Tears Bat Trip is aant-garde jazz with spiritual, psychedelic and worldly influences. This session formed around University of Washington jazz professor and guitarist Luke Bergman out of improvisations at the […]

Low Air is a long awaited record, at least for me. Jeremy is best known as the longtime live drummer for Animal Collective and Dan Deacon. He’s also a member of two different art rock groups that were formative to me, Ponytail and Slasher Flicks. I […]
I suppose this Bandcamp-Friday release constitutes the first officially released live-from-tour Mikaela Davis album. As a somewhat jam band there’s been recording of her barn burning improvisational sets and all-Jerry cover sets for a while, and a few well circulated live in studios. Still I think […]

Most Velvet Underground bootlegs are partial, unlistenable, lo-fi audience recordings. This record is only partially partial, totally listenable and acceptably lo-fi audience recording. I am not recommending this for purely historical purposes rather it’s a genuinely nice listen. This was the final set of several in a very, very small bar in Philadelphia in early […]
