En ~ Already Gone
Mohammed likes the bass, but I prefer the koto. What can I say? Perhaps that an album with at least two tonal entry points must be a very fine effort. It’s unlikely that Already Gone will become more popular than the songs

Fires Were Shot ~ Maritime
Of all the times, places, and ways to release an album, this may be the worst: just before SXSW, in Austin, in the digital format. This unusual hat trick comes across as a virtual cry for anonymity. And yet, fame

Insect Factory ~ Melodies from a Dead Radio
An intriguing title is a great start, and from the very first track, Melodies from a Dead Radio delivers on its promise. One would imagine said melodies to be static-filled, ghostly, out of focus, difficult to comprehend. The shortwave radio burst of
