Gabriel Saloman ~ Adhere
A monthly feature in The Wire asks guests to listen to and attempt to identify anonymous music. Most of the guests are semi-successful. If the idea were expanded to labels, then Miasmah would be an easy mark. The label has developed a

Troy Schafer ~ Supreme Happiness Forever
An odd note about experimental music: we often support an artist’s desire to go all-out atonal avant-garde, dissonance shrieking from warring strings, once we know that the artist doesn’t have to go this route. In other words, once an artist

The Average By Six ~ Polaroids
Radio frequencies swirl in a daze of shoreline static. Sitting on the dock of the bay, wastin’ time, a boat kisses the undulating ocean’s moist lips. Lo-fi waves reflect off a shortwave signal, sent back along invisible IV lines linking countless

Rinus Van Alebeek ~ The 19th Century
Cassettes didn’t exist in the 19th century, although the idea had been planted by Oberlin Smith in 1888. The recorded tape was introduced in 1962, galloped strong for a few decades, descended into near-obscurity, was revived by cultists and today

James Edmonds ~ Last Dregs
After the apocalypse, all recorded music will be dusty and damaged. Tapes will be worn and stretched. Vinyl will be warped. Discs will be cracked. The remaining sounds will be muddled, distorted, diffused, existing only as fragmented works and unamplified
