Simon Whetham ~ The Phoenix

For the past year or so Simon Whetham has been traveling around the world performing and taking field recordings. His music is derived completely from field recordings, so he is a logical choice for Flaming Pines’ Birds of a Feather

Annea Lockwood ~ A Sound Map of the Housatonic River

A certain irony rests in the fact that I’m listening to the work of a New Zealand artist who traveled across the sea to record the sounds of a river near the home where I was raised.  Even as a

Yuco ~ I’m living in melancholy in the fog

Art often arrives in the wake of disaster as a swift response: an attempt to console quickly or to raise funds.  Meaningful art often takes longer to arrive.  In the immediate aftermath of trauma, the emotions run high and perspective is

Atilio Doreste ~ Dog In The Cave

Dog In The Cave is the first in a new series entitled “Limits and Derives”, and it’s a fascinating entry point for sound-searcher Atilio Doreste. A deep evocation of a close atmosphere, the low clouds sleeping over an exotic panorama and a

Daniel Menche ~ Raw Recording Series (Volume One)

Coterie Collective ~ Neck of the Woods

The Coterie Collective‘s Neck of the Woods may catch some downloaders off guard, albeit in a pleasant way.  The album’s Bandcamp page provides no indication that listeners are hearing but a ten-minute selection of excerpts from an 80-minute album.  And yet, a

Darren McClure ~ The Black Kite

The black kite is a raptor.  Yes, just like the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park.  Fish, bats, smaller birds and *cough* roadkill and garbage are their chosen prey ~ the latter “victims” have earned the species the cruel nickname “shite-hawk”.  But look
