Brinstaar + Bred Blondie ~ Dream of Stone

The stone dreams of becoming a sculpture, while the music dreams of becoming a composition.  These dreams merge on Dream of Stone, which began its life as the accompaniment to an exhibition, and is now available in digital form. One can hear

Valerio Tricoli ~ Clonic Earth

When the sun goes down, Valerio Tricoli comes out.  Or at least that’s what we’re imagining, because this is not daytime music.  It’s far too dark and intricate for that.  Nighttime brings out the nuances of Tricoli’s electro-acoustic works, exposing their tiny

Ian William Craig ~ Centres/Meaning Turns to Whispers

Ian William Craig has become one of our favorite composers here in recent years, thanks to the success of A Turn of Breath and A Cradle for the Wanting.  Some will be surprised to learn that Centres is actually his ninth album, and that his

Only Swallow ~ S.F

A clammy Floridian heat mingles with a spell of warm rain, the Orlando droplets as lucid as a pair of clear, grey eyes, bringing a gentle melancholy to the music as the rain begins to water the grass. An ultra-bright,

Celer ~ Two days and one night

Two days and one night is another one on the pile of “sad Celer albums”. The past year has seen some of his most brutal, with How could you believe me when I said I loved you when you know

Jon Mueller ~ Tongues

A strange progression has been apparent in Jon Mueller‘s work, picking up steam in the last few releases.  He’s always been a percussionist, and his earlier albums concentrated on “pure” percussive experiments.  In what we might term his “middle” period, heavy

Rodeo ~ Dust Bowl

How in the world is some of the best spaghetti western music coming from Denmark?  Thank René González Schelbeck, who records solo as Western Skies Motel and as part of the trio aptly named Rodeo.  Remember, Ennio Morricone (who just signed a

Kasper T. Toeplitz & Anna Zaradny ~ Stacja Nigdy w Życiu

How to best translate the live experience to the vinyl experience?  Play it loud.  Having been (pleasantly) deafened by Anna Zaradny at the Unsound Festival a few years back, I was heartened to hear two new LPs from the artist this season:
