This is a trilogy of experimental modern classical works by UK based Polish musician Wojciech Rusin. Beginning with his studio debut The Funnel, followed by Syphon and Honey For The Ants. Collectively called an alchemical trilogy, these three albums are constructed from his compositions with singers, […]
Liquid Portraits is the first real masterpiece from Italian producer, jazz drummer, finger drummer/sampler wizard and composer Cristiano Crisci aka Clap! Clap! The signature Clap! Clap! sound- intricate electronic music with a variety of world rhythms and intriguing samples- is perfected and elevated by an entirely […]
This is the first proper LP from the progressive and electronic jazz duo Dolphin Hyperspace. The group is saxophonist Nicole McCabe and Logan Kane on bass/beats/synths. It’s just them on almost all the instruments and synths and beats, and they create a busy and complex sound. There […]
Buffalo Daughter is a massively underappreciated Japanese rock/psych band and this 2021 comeback album (their first in 7 years) is especially overlooked. It’s a bit darker and more electronic than their previous records and that keeps with the future forward theme- it’s a darker, more electronic […]
It’s no secret that reunion/anniversary tours are super hot right now. If, like me, you were about 15 years old in 2005, your cup most likely runneth over these days – especially if you were, like me, unable to catch many of these artists when they […]
I’m definitely a latecomer to the vaporwave party – I didn’t really become aware of the genre until the middle of 2020. Lockdown gave me plenty of time to explore new music, and I took advantage of that in a big way. As the days began […]
This is perhaps my most-anticipated album of the year. It’s been seven years since the stupefyingly cool Black Moth Super Rainbow released their last album. The wait, frustrating though it may have been, was absolutely worth it. A few singles were released in the months leading […]
Wow! I’m not even sure what else really needs to be said about this one, but I’m going to talk about it anyway! The legendary Stereolab returns from the ether to grace us with their first new album in 15 years, and it’s like they never […]
In the last five years or so, I’ve been way into instrumental beat collections. This is nothing particularly unique or new – the ubiquity of “lo-fi hip hop beats” is well-known to anyone even casually into the newer distillations of music in the internet age. That […]
Light-Space Modulator is a new duo of psychedelic producer/DJ/legend Shackleton and singer/instrumentalist Marlene Ribeiro of GNOD, whose ’23 debut was probably my favorite release of that year. The instrumentation is delicate and balanced perfectly to Marlene’s intensely layered voice. It’s rhythmically intricate with a strong ritualistic […]
