Phirnis/Katarrhaktes ~ Sleepers

This second collaborative effort (following last year’s Lovers single) from Vienna’s Phirnis and London’s Katarrhaktes presents two like-minded artists at the top of their game.  It’s amazing how well their sounds mesh together, but once one learns their stories, it’s less of a surprise; instead,

Forest Management ~ Encounter

American musician John Daniel produces fine ambient-drone music under the alias of Forest Management. Encounter is a soft feather that soothes away the tension of the day. You can feel the pressure leaving your body in steady, reliable waves. This encounter is one to

Foresteppe ~ Diafilms

As one of the coldest winters on record continues in the States, it’s nice to know that others are going through the same thing.  As I write this, it’s -18C in New York and -28C in Novosibirsk Oblast, Russia; our

Lawrence English ~ Viento

Lawrence English’s follow-up to Shadow of the Monolith continues his exploration of Antarctic sounds, but is a much more visceral and immediate work than its predecessor.  On this LP, English presents two side-long recordings of winter fury.  Given such conditions, most reasonable

Erik Nyström ~ Morphogenèse

Most albums are instantly accessible, their underlying concepts easily penetrable by the common public.  Not so Morphogenèse, an album that travels from deep sea to deep space, searching for boundaries yet finding only greater expanses. The track descriptions can be intimidating, so
