Louise Rossiter ~ Der Industriepalast
The most amazing thing about Der Industriepalast is how much it sounds like the inner workings of the human body. The listener is fooled into thinking that they are hearing the amplified sounds of digestion, respiration, firing synapses and flowing blood,

Andrzej Pietrewicz & Haiyue Zhu ~ #10
#10 is a departure of sorts for Andrzej Pietrewicz ~ a single 33-minute track that is more experimental than any of his prior work. While one can detect familiar timbres such as bells and breath, the field recordings are more prominent, and for
