Takkak Takkak – Abu
A Vilnius-based Indonesian composer and a Berlin-based Japanese producer have recorded an album in three different nations and released it on an Ugandan imprint. As a result, Abu sounds as if it comes from nowhere and everywhere at once: a “mystifying

Natalia Beylis ~ Around Here, The Birds Plant The Trees
If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound? And what if an entire forest falls? Around Here, The Birds Plant The Trees, inspired by a “clear-felled wasteland” in Leitrim, Ireland, amplifies these questions. In the digital

Blak Saagan ~ Un Sequestro Lungo 10,000 Anni
