Thisquietarmy ~ Hex Mountains
Hex Mountains has sprung up from a collision between the tectonic plates of post-rock and drone – a menacing, guitar-driven organism that seems to have emerged from far beneath the surface of the everyday. Thisquietarmy presents a soundtrack to a

My Tiger Side ~ 1
With a dichotomous debut that offers intriguing insight into the diverse disciplines of composition and improvisation, My Tiger Side demonstrates how a stripped-down approach focusing on absence as much presence can succeed in wedding these opposing approaches. The album, simply titled

jikan ga nai ~ …plenty time

David Downing ~ Cosmic Conspiracy
Six minutes of ambient swells beneath an eerie chorus of high-pitched, soft-edged cries equally beautiful yet haunting: such is the opening to Cosmic Conspiracy by US-based and self-proclaimed ‘post-rock cellist’, David Downing. After such mellifluous greetings that ensnare the listener

Utu Lautturi ~ Korpinkorva
Ambient this may (loosely) be, but background listening Korpinkorva certainly is not. A truly cerebral experience spread across four parts, the EP in its entirety conveys ‘a life plagued by mental disorder’, also partly visualised in an accompanying video. It

Rhian Sheehan ~ Stories from Elsewhere
A swelling synth and plaintive piano offer the barest whisper of a greeting, and cast a malaise over a distant field recording of the hum of everyday life. It is an unassuming entrance to an album that slowly yet insistently
