Maral ~ Push / Bambi OFS ~ YAKKA
Lest readers forget, nightclubs are those enclosed spaces where strangers stand close together, losing their inhibitions. In press releases, any beat-driven record is “club-oriented”. This begs two questions: 1) Where are the cool clubs that play these crazy sounds? 2)

Rael Jones ~ Mother Echo
Losing a parent is traumatic, but remembering a parent can be therapeutic, as proven by Rael Jones on Mother Echo. The album is a heartfelt tribute to the composer’s mother, released on the fifth anniversary of her death. Piano and string quartet combine

William Basinski ~ Lamentations
A low, slow, bell tolls during the opening minutes of Lamentations. The album title references the Jewish book of mourning; the track title references John Donne. We are in a time of lamentation right now, and the bell tolls for all

Constantine Skourlis ~ Eternal Recurrence
Constantine Skourlis chases Hades with another album of immersive, oppressive tracks: a fitting corollary to our current climate. While listening to Eternal Recurrence, one can sense the cumulative weight of anger, depression, denial and finger-pointing, wrapped in a blanket of illness. This music is born

Aperus ~ Archaic Signal
We’re always appreciative when artists go the extra mile, and Brian McWilliams (Aperus) has done so literally and figuratively. The artist has translated visits to New Mexico’s La Cienaguilla Petroglyph site into music, photography and art, and Archaic Signal is a thoughtful
