Duy Gebord & Nienartowicz / Wolski ~ Kelp / Split
Poland’s Pawlacz Perski has just released two superlative experimental cassettes on the same day. Lech Nienartowicz and Michał Wolski‘s tape is an investigation of clocks, chimes and strings, while Duy Gebord‘s Kelp is inspired by a floating island of trash. Each surprises

One and Seven Eighths ~ Modern Camping Songs
Modern Camping Songs is quirky, clever, and fun, and would make a perfect alternate soundtrack to Moonrise Kingdom. An anonymous commenter calls it “one of the best camping based musical releases for a few months now”. This endearing statement is a perfect entry

Socrates Martinis ~ North / Uton ~ Kähe+
This unique pair of releases from the Moremars label stretches beyond the usual confines. The first is a CD3″ nestled in a poetry chapbook; the second is a sonic exploration of non-existent Finnish words. Together, they are evidence of a

Benjamin Finger ~ The Bet + Artist Interview
Benjamin Finger‘s album packaging is always creative. The cover and title of Woods of Broccoli caught our attention, as did the bird mobile made of piano innards that accompanied Listen to My Nerves Hum. The Bet has a fine cover as well, but

Public Speaking ~ Within Patterns
Polyrhythmic music seems to have been my flavour of the month: first came the pleasure of witnessing the absorbing Brooklyn-based avant-garde trio, Dawn of Midi, a few weeks back; then there were some delightfully experimental rhythmic studio jams; and soon

Derek Piotr / Mikah Meyer ~ Weather Patterns
The latest release from Ben Link Collins’ Silent Media label is another physical marvel. (The last one we reviewed was Pacific 231’s Micromega.) The snug black box contains 8 cloud images from Meire Todão, 7 poems from Derek Piotr and a CD

Shivers ~ S/T

Erik K. Skodvin ~ Flame
Four years after Flare comes Flame, a sequel of sorts from Deaf Center’s Erik K. Skodvin, also known as Svarte Greiner. Those familiar with the artist’s vast discography know to expect darkness, although the type of darkness varies with each moniker and each release.
