Musette ~ Drape Me In Velvet

There’s a twinkle in Joel Danell‘s eyes as he stares from the album cover ~ or perhaps his eyes have been replaced by tiny full moons.  When listening to Drape Me In Velvet, one gains the impression that the second scenario is

Lost Trail ~ October Mountain

October Mountain is the sibling of A Stained August for the Jetcrash, a cassette released simultaneously on a second label.  (What happened to September?)  When one leans forward, ear to speaker, to hear a southern man discussing wasted lives, it’s with the

Lost Trail ~ A Stained August for the Jetcrash

Husband and wife duo Zachary Corsa and Denny Wilkerson Corsa live in a century-old North Carolina house, a spooky place surrounded by dark woods, emaciated wolves and the disembodied voices of children who have lost their way.  When planes crash deep in the trees,

Machinefabriek ~ Ontrafelde tonen

The lathe-cut Ontrafelde tonen launches the brand-new Vintermusik label in style; it’s hard to imagine a stronger start.  In 2012, Machinefabriek is already making a play to become the next jukebox hero, the king of the 45.  Ontrafelde tonen follows hot on the
