Frédéric Nogray ~ Buiti Binafin

Buiti Binafin may be a field recording, but it’s also an attempt to drive home a deeper message: that Earth’s natural soundscapes are disappearing by the minute, and the world’s chroniclers may need to step up their pace.  At the same

Wolf Maps ~ Landforms

Lost, abandoned harbours and shadowed landscapes roll along the shoreline like low-lying, bleak clouds of foreboding grey, echoing a passage of years spent underneath a sliver of moonlight. The rise and fall of the sea an eternal breathing of deep blue. Despite

“Shut your eyes and you’ll burst into flames.”  This warning was first made famous by the Log Lady in Twin Peaks, and later became the name of an alt-rock group; now it’s the title of a new 13-minute drone piece from

Tiny Leaves ~ What We Dream Of

It’s nice to have friends, especially when one is new.  Tiny Leaves (Joel Nathaniel Pike) is accomplished on his own, as evidenced by the previously-reviewed Get Yourself Up On a High Mountain; his ambient work is complimented here by the remix contributions

Dead Sea Apes ~ Lupus

Hold the space. Light the candles. Stir the brew. The ritual is about to begin. The curiously named Lupus begins with a strike of a singing bowl: an invitation calling our reptile minds into action. Confident and thick as a

John 3:16 ~ Visions of the Hereafter

It comes as a slight surprise to learn that Visions of the Hereafter is the first full-length album from John 3:16, but it turns out that all of his other releases were collaborations or EPs.  So congratulations, Philippe Gerber, you’ve earned it!  It’s

Origamibiro ~ Flicker EP

We often wonder if music that is original can still be made or if everything has already been done.  The question is of course rhetorical since the possibilities offered by music are very much dependent on the possibilities offered by

Saåad ~ Confluences

We last encountered French duo Saåad on Sustained Layers, a collaboration with like-minded artists EUS and Postdrome.  We’ve since had the pleasure of reviewing the latter artist’s solo album, and now it’s Saåad’s turn.  Confluences is a commissioned work first presented in front of the
