Floating Spectrum ~ A Point Between
A Point Between is a perfect example of intermingling disciplines. Abe Pazos’ remarkable cover draws us in, creating intrigue before a single note is played. The music of Floating Spectrum (Mei-Fang Liau) sounds exactly like the art, or vice versa: swirling, generative, open

Anoice ~ Ghost in the Clocks

A-Sun Amissa ~ For Burdened and Bright Light
Gizeh Records founder Richard Knox is continually expanding his sonic horizons. His participation in multiple collectives allows him to change masks and look at the world in different ways. Even with A-Sun Amissa, he’s produced quieter works than this. For Burdened
