Dustin O’Halloran ~ Silfur

A pandemic affords the opportunity for reflection, even in those who prefer to look forward.  Dustin O’Halloran is one of these people, although given his expansive, award-studded history, one would imagine he’d be happy to dwell on his triumphs.  Silfur was recorded

Gaspar Claus ~ Adrienne

Considering how often we’ve typed his name, it’s shocking to realize that Gaspar Claus has never recorded a solo album.  The cellist first came to our attention a decade ago as part of FareWell Poetry ~ a collective whose alumni have continued

*Press A* ~ Floex: Papetura

Soundtracking a game about paper figures trying to avoid shadowy threats and fire, Papetura swaddles a sombre set in diaphanous layers of keys and strings. It’s the product of Czech producer Floex, fast becoming something of a mainstay in the

giant skeletons ~ Von Belkinrode nach Bellingroth: an Audio-Geography

Pan Daijing ~ Jade 玉观音

In many ways, Jade 玉观音 is the opposite of Lack, although one might regard the two as operating in compliment, approaching from different sides of Pan Daijing‘s personality.  After the success of that vital 2017 release, we wished only the best for the

Yuting Wu ~ Mindtrick

When presenting a debut release, it’s always helpful to have a striking cover image.  Mindtrick‘s sci-fi photo is a macroscopic image of the slime mold Comatricha. Even more amazing than the optics, the music sounds like the art.  Are our minds
