W.I.A ~ W.I.A DIVERS

Browsing through some of my old vinyl collection recently, I was reminded of the anti-tape propaganda that record companies used to undertake – a cassette-and-crossbones design with the legend ‘HOME TAPING IS KILLING MUSIC’.  Except that it didn’t, and the

SCKE// ~ SCKE// Sierra Liora (1981)

Nostalgia has a crunchy bite to it and a bittersweet after-taste.  At least, that’s the impression one gets from listening to SCKE// Sierra Liora (1981), a cassette release from SCKE//, that’s also available as a download for those of us

Waves On Canvas ~ Into The Northsea

Stefano Guzzetti likes 4AD Records. Really likes 4AD Records. In fact, on Into The Northsea he’s done his best to capture the spirit of This Mortal Coil (the musical project of 4AD boss Ivo Watts-Russell) with a coterie of guest

William Cody Watson ~ Bill Murray

Although I’d seen Bill Murray in Ghostbusters and its sequel, I would have been hard-pressed to name anything else he’d done until I met my good friend MattP who was, for reasons I never quite ascertained, obsessed with the guy

Will Samson ~ Balance

Be warned, fans of instrumental work: Will Samson‘s album is quite heavy on the vocals. With understandable lyrics and everything! There’s no charter for ignoring singers at A Closer Listen, just that our natural inclination is towards songs and sounds

Panabrite ~ The Baroque Atrium

The Baroque Atrium is apparently named after ‘a state of mind evoking an idyllic, peaceful place’, which will disappoint those hoping for an album inspired by a hotel reception area where a string quartet plays Vivaldi for eternity. Anyway, for

Mirror To Mirror ~ Body Moving Slowly

There’s a lot of energy in the opening tracks of this new album from the good offices of Preservation Records. If you’ve ever wondered what a collaboration between Philip Glass and Tangerine Dream might sound like – or maybe Michael

Un Silencio Blanco ~ Las Cosas Cansadas

Only two songs strong, the second release from Colombia’s Un Silencio Blanco is very much a study in contrasts; or, if you prefer, a record of two halves. Both are worthy of your time, although it is the Caretaker-esque ambient
