Anthony Pateras ~ Blood Stretched Out

Try to visualize the album’s title, Blood Stretched Out, as a concrete image. Not only does it have a trace of the macabre, it also presents a substantial impossibility, in the sense that you cannot stretch out a liquid. Still,

Various Artists ~ The Exquisite Corpse

Let’s start with Leah Kardos’ “Little Phase”, from Bigo & Twigetti’s Summer compilation of last year. Press play ~ and then we’ll play a game.   The game is called the exquisite corpse.  Most of us played it with paper in primary school,

Luca Nasciuti ~ Kishar

On the surface, Kishar is a journey through the natural soundscapes of Scotland and Iceland, but below the surface, it’s much more than that.  In a literal sense, the album investigates the properties of what lies beneath the earth, from geyser to

Celer ~ Another Blue Day

Another Blue Day is like blueberry-flavored ambient bubblegum: thin enough to pop, and light, playful music for the warmer Summer months. Spherical in tone and more than capable of riding on currents of soft, shampooed air, Another Blue Day emerges, fizzes

John Matthias and Jay Auborn ~ Race To Zero

Universal in concept yet lofty in execution, Race To Zero is a multifaceted, thought-provoking and self-aware record. Attempting to fuse the acoustic and digital worlds, and inspired by humankind’s relationship with technology, there is nothing novel about the pillars that

Minco Eggersman ~ KAVKASIA

KAVKASIA is not just an album, it’s a portfolio.  Chock full of photographs, colors and sounds, the release is a multi-media experience that brings Georgia and the Caucasus Mountains to life, while serving as a tour of Minco Eggersman‘s talents.  The album

Stefano Guzzetti ~ Alone (night music for solo piano)

Everything one needs to know about Alone can be found in the video for “Home”, directed by Fiorella Sanna and starring Daniela Saragat.  The din of the outside world threatens to overwhelm the protagonist, who lies on a bed taking it all in.
