Electronic Observations: An Onslaught of EPs
First it was the piano EPs, now the electronic EPs; this has been the year of the short releases. We received dozens of these in the first quarter, and here we highlight seven of the best. The advantage of waiting a

Kit Wilmans Fegradoe ~ Issa
Our Easter review is a tribute to the lost years of Jesus, during which he purportedly traveled throughout the Middle East, studying other traditions and learning about the diversity of humanity. This is all speculation, but it’s a compelling story,

Illuminine ~ #1
Big name connections are a double-edged sword; the associations can increase one’s success, or cause one to be judged by comparison. The future of Illuminine will rise or fall on what one makes of these connections, as they are front and

Austin Glover & Eric Perreault ~ Freight 1110 Through Greensboro

Tim Catlin & Machinefabriek‘s third collaboration is also their first in four years. The gap in time is clearly responsible for a shift in sound. Whorls is as dynamic and exciting as Patina was soft and calm. When the latter was released in 2011,
