Foresteppe ~ Diafilms
As one of the coldest winters on record continues in the States, it’s nice to know that others are going through the same thing. As I write this, it’s -18C in New York and -28C in Novosibirsk Oblast, Russia; our

people-eaters ~ The Only Thing Left To Fear

twincities ~ memoirs: to dust
twincities (Fletcher McDermott) has come a long way since Make a Joyful Noise. The guitar and bass have been swapped for viola and cello, and the post-rock for ambience. Even the celesta is gone. On his new album, the artist appears to

Lost Trail ~ One Day We’ll All Walk Outside And Stare Up At The Blameless Sky And Wait For Something To Happen
Lost Trail (Zachary & Denny Corsa) have been partners in crime for a long time. In the past, they’ve conducted paranormal investigations via recorded sound, but their music has by now slowly begun to ease itself into the cold forests of reality. A

Jasmine Guffond ~ Yellow Bell
