Matteo Uggeri/Luca Mauri/Francesco Giannico ~ Pagetos
When one waits half a decade for an album to appear, one grows antsy. Doubt sets in: will it ever be released? Will it justify the wait? In this instance, add the fact that the album is the concluding installment of

Seaworthy ~ Bellows and Breath
2012 may be the year of the harmonium, an old instrument now being used in new ways. The instrument had fallen into disuse in recent years, relegated to tag sales and the back rows of orchestras (behind the drums, behind

Luis Antero ~ Postais Sonoros
40 tracks is quite a lot, but as a free download, it’s more of an abundance than an over-indulgence. Luis Antero‘s travels across Portugal, the country “planted by the sea”, are lovingly preserved as a series of sonic postcards for

EJS ~ Improvisations for Strings & Electronics
EJS is Helena Espvall of Espers and Marielle Jakobsons and Agnes Szelag of Myrmyr. With two violins and a cello at their disposal, they make a deep, refined racket that serves as a natural follow-up to last year’s underlooked Fire Star. All

David Vélez ~ El Pájaro que Escucha
Three victories in a row for the 3leaves label (following releases by Craig Vear and Steve Roden) and a hat trick for David Vélez as well, following releases on Unfathomless and Impulsive Habitat. El Pájaro que Escucha (the bird that listens) is

Darius Ciuta ~ IIN
The nature of this recording dictates the conditions under which it must be played: after the sun has set, after the workers have gone home, after the traffic has died down, after the children have left the streets; and alone.

Tonesucker ~ Omnia Convivia Crastina
The buzz began with Wire Tapper 28 and the sonic mulch of Tonesucker’s “cosmic avian variation”, which sounded somewhat like a gravel field being mowed next to an active propeller. The track was a teaser mix of three longer selections on Omnia

Nicholas Szczepanik ~ The Truth of Transience
“You have to hear this on vinyl,” Nicholas Szczepanik insisted when he told us about his latest album, and so we were delighted when Isounderscore sent us a copy. We love the look, the smell, the weight; but most of all, we
