Francesco Fabris & Ben Frost ~ Vakning
Few field recording artists experience risk recording in urban, suburban and forest environments, but the Room40 roster revels in extremes: Antarctic storms, sub-zero temperatures, and now the boiling opposite. Vakning was recorded at Iceland’s Fagradalsfjall and pairs well with Alyssa Moxley’s Underdrift:

Secret of Elements ~ Rebuilding Notre Dame OST
As Notre Dame burned on April 15, 2019, the entire world felt a tug in the throat. History and hope were going up in flames. The symbolism of the cathedral stretched far beyond France, even beyond religion. Thanks to heroic

Greenhouse Ensemble ~ Rez-de-chaussée
Rez-de-chaussée is the rare jazz album to appear on our pages, its appeal so immediate that we became enamored. This is the first album for the Montréal-based sextet Greenhouse Ensemble, filmed below performing, true to form, in a greenhouse. Akin to many

Kate NV ~ WOW
Ridiculously happy, relentlessly upbeat, WOW is a sonic sugar rush, a candy-coated confection topped with syrup and sprinkles. Kate NV‘s energy never seems to flag, nor does her creativity ease. Breaking with previous recordings, her voice is diced, chopped and splattered;

Kate Carr ~ false dawn
When is a field recording not a field recording? The dawn chorus arises from silence in a soft drone, followed by the sound of footsteps on gravel. Kate Carr is setting out in the forest, as she has so many times

Heinali ~ Kyiv Eternal
Kyiv Eternal is released tomorrow on the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. At this writing, over 200,000 people have died, and the war continues to rage … but not in the way that Putin had hoped. The Battle

Hania Rani ~ On Giacometti
On Giacometti is a winter album of sorts, although an early track is titled “Spring.” The music reflects the season and space in which it was recorded: a winter residency snuggled in the Swiss mountains, where pianist Hania Rani worked on the score

Zoë Mc Pherson ~ Pitch Blender
I change shape all the time. This key sentence, located in the heart of “Lamella,” is the key to understanding sonic chameleon Zoë Mc Pherson. A lamella is a thin layer or membrane, suggesting fluidity, or the ability to shift
