V/A ~ Realismo Mágico
Another music label turns five this year (wow, these little moppets grow up so fast) and Sergio Díaz De Rojas’ piano and coffee records celebrates with a fresh compilation from friends old and new, inspired by magical realism. The genre inspires creative

Peter Knight & Australian Art Orchestra ~ Crossed & Recrossed
Music inspired by literature possesses an inherent depth, serving as the aural twin to prose: a pair of disciplines that each conjure visual images. In two side-long pieces, Peter Knight & Australian Art Orchestra tackle two poles of geography. “The Plains” describes

Heavenly Stems ~ Florals/Shell
Florals/Shell is a neat way to introduce a new project: two EPs, one on each side of a bright green 12″. As a founding member of Trophy Wife, Ben Rimmer (now known as Heavenly Stems) is not entirely new, but his moniker

Andrew Wasylyk ~ Balgay Hill: Morning in Magnolia
We don’t normally publish reviews so far ahead of release, but Clay Pipe Music’s lovely limited edition pressings tend to sell out fast. Today is pre-order day for Balgay Hill: Mornings in Magnolia, and we want to give our readers a

Kate Carr ~ dawn, always new, often superb, inaugurates the return of the everyday
The splendid title may sing of post-rock, but dawn, always new, often superb, inaugurates the return of the everyday is more accurately described as post-music; a set of soundscapes culled from London’s Bricklayers Arms roundabout and chopped into minuscule pieces. The album

BJ Nilsen ~ Irreal
It’s been a while since BJ Nilsen has released an album proper, although last year’s multi-month, hours-long pandemic project Pending / Auditory Scenes Amsterdam should be an album ~ it stands as one of the year’s most enduring sonic documents. Now that Nilsen is

Tiny Leaves ~ View From Here
Joel Pike (Tiny Leaves) describes View From Here as “a shifting of perspective,” but as a year has passed between genesis and release, the EP represents two perspectives, one mid-pandemic and one emerging. Last spring the artist turned to nature for solace

Year of No Light ~ Consolamentum
Although the collective has been around for twenty years, Year of No Light seems the perfect band name for our times. Their long, slow, guitar-drenched vistas are painted in undulating shades of descending doom, punctuated by periods of intense energy. The last
