Nicolas Montgermont ~ Radioscapes
Imagine if radio waves looked like tree rings, visible in concentric circles of white, black and grey. This is the appearance of Radioscapes, the new picture disc vinyl from Nicolas Montgermont and Art Kill Art. The usual markers are obscured; one cannot hold

ΠΑΝΘΕΟΝ ~ A Book of Memories
St. Petersburg’s ΠΑΝΘΕΟΝ label has been responsible for some lovely packaging over the years, and A Book of Memories is yet another charmer.
