Iannis Xenakis ~ Persepolis
The story and context of Iannis Xenakis’ Persepolis is not only quite interesting, it is perhaps the key to understand what it was meant to do. Commissioned for the 1971 Shiraz-Persepolis Arts Festival, an Iranian institution which lasted from 1967

Mukqs ~ 起き上がり
Mukqs’ latest effort, entitled 起き上がり, which is Japanese for “the rising” or also “to erect”, seems to raise the ageless myth of language fragmentation in a time when the matrix of a shared language does not come from the lofty

YoshimiO / Susie Ibarra / Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe ~ Flower of Sulphur
There’s something doubly poetic about the term Flower of Sulphur: on one hand, there’s the striking association between sulphur as integral to certain repellent smells and a flower, and on the other hand, there’s the chemical meaning, which refers to

Keiji Haino & SUMAC ~ American Dollar Bill – Keep Facing Sideways, You’re Too Hideous To Look At Face On
There’s perhaps a common thread to the overtly poetic names of the tracks in Keiji Haino & SUMAC’s collaboration, a thread that intertwines anger and passion in that characteristically playful Haino way, in which a measure of silliness opens up

Lea Bertucci ~ Metal Aether
The title Metal Aether directly evokes a juxtaposition of matter and spirit, of a hard surface made of nothing, of the saxophone’s brutal (as in raw) means of expressing sweetness via relatively harsh sounds. The album was recorded both at

Dirge ~ Alma | Baltica
When I first started reading about Dirge I felt a complete dissonance with what I was hearing: these French guys all clad in black like a regular post-metal band were playing music that reminded me of the golden age of

Everyday Experimentalism: \\NULL|ZØNE// Tapes
\\NULL|ZØNE// has published a few tapes for late 2017 and early 2018 whose sound ranges and styles differ quite a bit, but which are connected by an undercurrent of personal, relatively idiosyncratic aesthetics. “Homegrown experimentalism”, the label calls it, not

“I am I and my circumstances,” vitalist Spanish thinker José Ortega y Gasset once wrote, “[and] if I do not save them I cannot save myself”. Future Unfolding is an exploration videogame whose soundtrack reflects the ever-shifting positioning of a
