Lapsihymy ~ you’re alright / losing grip
We don’t usually take age into account in our reviews. Younger artists are not necessarily amateurs, while older artists are not necessarily accomplished. One never knows when an artist might peak: early, late or mid-career. This being said, Finland’s Lapsihymy made a point

Brave Timbers ~ Hope
It’s been a while since we’ve heard from Brave Timbers, once the solo project of Sarah Kent. With the additional of fellow multi-instrumentalist Andrew Scrogham, the timbres are a bit fuller and concerts suddenly a lot easier to perform. The core

Lorenzo Masotto ~ Rule and Case
Rule and Case first caught our ear when “Chrono” appeared on Preserved Sound’s recent compilation Winter Kept Us Warm. Now the full album is available, and comes across as another fine release from an ever-consistent label. In the snowy video for

Kokomo ~ Monochrome Noise Love
The longer the history of post-rock, the harder it is for artists to impress, a fact brought home by Jack Chuter’s recent Storm Static Sleep. First, there’s an increasing tendency for bands to disassociate themselves from the genre; second, there’s an

France Jobin ~ Singulum
Like a sluggish mummification process, the light and creamy textures of Singulum are gently wrapped around the body, embalming the slowly developing ambient music. On Singulum, Montreal sound artist France Jobin gently nudges her music forward, and it’s so hushed

Joseph Sannicandro ~ a sea without a port
Mexico City always comes up in talks about the largest human populations in the world, and it’s no wonder why – something like 22 million people sharing a common space does already sound like an outlandish 1950’s sci-fi projection of

Magda Mayas ~ Terrain
It’s impressive how Terrain juxtaposes two concepts together in aural form, the idea of something solid with that of something ephemeral, particularly since there’s only two instruments in play throughout the album, a piano and a clavinet. The collage continually

Ennio Mazzon ~ Pavement Narrows
Sound artist Ennio Mazzon‘s full-length follow-up to Xuan is a different beast, one that shimmers like a spaceship instead of clanking like a factory floor. The drama remains intact, although the form has changed: a series of tracks in place of a single
