Jung An Tagen ~ Agent Im Objekt

Warning:  strobe light video!  The flashing lights and hyperkinetic sequences of the lead single may cause seizures, while others will see colors that aren’t there, reflecting Jung An Tagen‘s interest in synesthesia.  Try it if you’re brave!  The album also wins

Clint Heidorn ~ Pasadena

Six years have passed since Clint Heidorn last issued an album, sending some copies out in wooden boxes and burying others around the Salton Sea.  No such bonuses are available this time, just a lovely piece of vinyl with a retro-looking inner

Abyss X ~ Pleasures of the Bull

Knossos, on the isle of Crete in the Mediterranean, has been called the oldest city in Europe – it was, for a time, the centre of Minoan civilisation and the reasons for its collapse have been lost to the ages.

phon.o ~ Slow As Fog

Carsten Aermes has been steady but not exactly profile-raising prolific when recording as phon.o – he’s produced a run of almost annual EPs since 2000 on labels that are certainly eye-catching – 50Weapons, Tectonic, Bpitch Control and Shitkatapult – but
