Óbó ~ Innhverfi (Exclusive Full Album Stream!)
Sigur Rós fans will be drawn instantly to the debut release from Ólafur Björn Ólafsson, the band’s touring keyboardist and percussionist, especially given the fact that the last Sigur Rós album dropped the percussion. But we’ve already buried the lead story: Óbó

Blueneck ~ King Nine
Album to album, the sound of Blueneck is hard to predict: instrumental, buried vocal, clear vocal, mix. But the melancholic mix of piano and guitars is constant, as is the level of quality. The new work pushes the band further into the

Lawrence English + Stephen Vitiello ~ Fable
We last encountered Lawrence English on the immersive Wilderness of Mirrors, released earlier this year; we last encountered Stephen Vitiello at the New York exhibition “In the Garden of Sonic Delights”. On Fable, the artists join forces for the second time, following 2011’s Acute Inbetweens (Crónica). Each album shares a

Nikita Bondarev ~ Siberian Loner
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been watching the warm weather slowly slip away. But in Siberia, November’s daily mean is -6 Celsius (21 F). It’s already cold there. Winter is not something that’s coming. And so, this cassette from

Golden Diskó Ship ~ Invisible Bonfire
The music of Theresa Stroetges (Golden Diskó Ship) is beautiful, beguiling and bold. Why can’t more pop music be like this? Simultaneously more accessible and intricate than 2012’s Prehistoric Dance Party, her latest work cements her reputation as a dynamic composer.

William Ryan Fritch ~ Heavy / Empty
Any disappointment at the news that the elaborately packaged Revisionist album has been pushed back to 2015 is tempered by the appearance of two new EPs from William Ryan Fritch. While they are available separately, they are closely related to each other and also
