Lucas Norer ~ Disposition
Disposition is a political work that seeks to depoliticize, an abstract work that seeks to upend old associations. Available as a softcover book with USB card, the album castigates the co-opting of the Kufstein Heroes’ Organ while celebrating its tonality. Essays

Pillars ~ Cavum

V/A ~ ShopLand World: Music for a Discovery Park of Miniature Supermarkets
The summer’s most tongue-in-cheek release is from Strategic Tape Reserve, who brings us 93 minutes of music for a proposed theme park, hoping that the EU will provide the rest of the funding. We’re pretty sure this will never happen,

Colin Andrew Sheffield & James Eck Rippie ~ exploded view
Have you ever dropped a box of glitter on the floor, or confetti, or buttons, or nails, and then had to sweep it all up and sort it out? Imagine doing that with sound. This is the genesis of exploded view,
