Katsura Mouri & Tim Olive ~ Various Histories
“Turntables and metals” is a unique descriptor. The turntables are the domain of Katsura Mouri, while the metals – struck, stroked, manipulated – belong to Tim Olive. These two sources played together sound wholly unique. As most turntables are made of metal,

Digital Natives ~ It’s All Point Blank
The 1990′s were a supersonic decade in the eyes of popular culture. Walkmans hung out of loose, blue jeans, tape cassettes were most definitely ‘in’ and the Nintendo v Sega console battle was in full swing (everyone knows ‘to be

Glochids ~ Originals
The first Cool Thing to Like about Originals is that it’s available on one’s choice of digital, cassette or vinyl, a generous selection in the modern age. The second is that the music is indeed original, as the title touts. One would

V/A ~ Ohrwurm Culture
Rhythm and noise are not natural enemies, but they battle throughout the Monstres par Excès labels’ 5th anniversary compilation. The conflict makes for some uneasy listening. One sinks into a groove and is then catapulted from the reverie by a speaker-shredding

The Holocene ~ Scars
When last we checked in with Peter Hamlin (The Holocene), the artist was gleefully pulverizing up old cassette tapes and re-presenting them as modern art. His wife and mum didn’t understand his work, but we did. Fast-forward a season, and
