The Hardy Tree ~ Through Passages of Time
Six years have passed since The Fields Lie Sleeping Underneath, but during this time, Frances Castle (The Hardy Tree) has continued her work as an award-winning illustrator while also running the excellent Clay Pipe label. Her illustrations hearken back to a kinder, simpler time, filled

Cinders Ensemble ~ Lonely Eskimo
“Let’s get the band back together!” That’s what Austin’s Cinders Ensemble has done after a long hiatus. It’s been four years since they re-formed, and fifteen since their last recorded album, and the time off doesn’t show at all. In the meantime,

Alan Jenkins ~ Well, That About Wraps It Up For The Sea
How many versions of “She Loves You” do you need? Fewer than are found here, but more than you think. Well, That About Wraps It Up For The Sea is a tongue-in-cheek compilation with creative liner notes that tell the story

Stoka Ensemble ~ xx0E5/-1|1|—q%
The title of Stoka Ensemble‘s latest EP may not stick in the memory (“Hey, have you heard xx0E5/-1|1|—q%?”), but the music is extremely catchy. With one drummer, two brass players and three laptop musicians, the band offers a unique and upbeat sound. Lead single

Radian ~ On Dark Silent Off
Radian announces itself with a squelch and a blur. It’s been seven years, and where has the time gone? Soon those big beats (and we do mean BIG) hit their stride, the beeps bounce like water in a Jurassic Park puddle, and

The Eye of Time ~ Myth I: A Last Dance for the Things We Love

Happy Place ~ Northfield
With two drummers and two guitarists, Will Mason has found his Happy Place. Not only is Northfield happy ~ it’s loud and boisterous, as the quartet buys into its name. Some may interpret it as an improvisational racket, but this music is
