Lawrence Lindell ~ A Nomad Story
When a person locks himself in a room for a week in order to create a grand work, one of two things may happen. One may go stir crazy (as in this classic clip from The Shining), or one may produce

Monist ~ New Romans: A History
Constantinople became Istanbul, Datsun became Nissan, Prince became a glyph for a bit, then became Prince again. Now ontopsych has become Monist. What’s in a name? Apparently, a lot. While a rose by any other name would still smell as

Chapelier Fou ~ Deltas
The cover of Deltas says it all: the music of Chapelier Fou is bright and happy, twinkling and colorful, creative and adventuresome. On his third album, Metz (France) artist Louis Warynski doesn’t defy genres as much as invite them in. A delta is a convergence of

Pronoun ~ Faux
Australia’s Pronoun kickstarts Faux with a battle cry, a Double Dragon styled yell that oozes out of past decades, bleeding like a wound into the present from its once-pristine arcade or, as teenagers in the 80’s and 90’s will tell you, paradise.

Huma-Huma ~ Theme Songs for Invisible Motion Pictures
Hawai’i’s native fish is the humu-humu, short for the fun-to-pronounce humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa. This name gives us a hint of what to expect from Huma-Huma: happy music, guaranteed to inspire smiles. Huma-Huma is all about happiness; “happy” is even one of their tags. In

bvdub ~ A History of Distance
Physical distances are there for all to see, but the longer, seemingly insurmountable distances are, to outside eyes, invisible. They linger in the silent gaps, in the deadened pause, afflicting two lovers with its rose-scented disease. The distance hurts because it’s close
