Cluster Lizard ~ Edge of the Universe
The sun is twinkling across waves which seem to stretch on forever. The Ukrainian duo of Dmytro Fedorenko & Kateryna Zavoloka take us into an altogether different forever – that of Sagan, Greene, Hawking, and deGrasse Tyson, a dark, cold,

Ikonika ~ Distractions
A lean, blue-hued futuristic city adorns the cover of Ikonika‘s Distractions, her first album in the last four years. It’s not clear whether the processor-like structures depict a city or the inside of a computer, which positively describes the old

Broken Thoughts ~ Realign
Once again, an album cover helps to draw us into the record. Frédéric Fontenoy’s eerily manipulated art is as alien as the industrial music it advertises. While we’ve seen the stretched image technique used in videos by Hiroshi Kondo and

The modern world is swamped by skittish, lazy, and infrequently well-meaning attempts to direct our fellow human beings towards ideas of living mindfully, compassionately and well. But where are those championing our final weak moments? Our enfeebled pulse? Our croaking

Badmixday ~ A Quiet Mind Awaits
To what do we owe the spiritual atmosphere of this warm tape? Perhaps we can credit the Sufi meditations of Anıl Berk Çetin (Badmixday), the calming presence of guest stars or the comforting influence of trip-hop. The answer is likely a combination
