NOMON ~ Card II

Reunited sister percussionists Shayna Dunkelman & Nava Dunkelman are clearly enjoying themselves on Card II, an exuberant EP that passes all too quickly but lifts the mood like a latte.  Nava is familiar to our readers as half of IMA, while the

Jay Chakravorty ~ A Map With No Memory

A Map With No Memory dances gently across the genres of ambient, electronic, drone and modern composition.  These flirtations reflect the genesis of the compositions, written to reflect the experience of falling in and out of love with people and places.

Ká ~ A Hidden River

Ká returns to the Bohemian forest to find A Hidden River, both literal and metaphoric.  It’s a thrill to walk deep into the heart of nature, following the sound of flowing water, and there to stumble on a reservoir, a waterfall,

Current Value ~ The All Attracting

Warning: this album is loud.  There’s no ignoring The All Attracting when it plays; the volume is at least 10% higher than that of the average recording, while the low end is particularly visceral.  This is immediately apparent in the crispy first

Eartheater ~ Phoenix: La Petite Mort Édition

Once in a while, an artist wanders from one genre into another, but seldom does a primarily vocal artist release a primarily instrumental album.  As part of PAN’s unique roster, Eartheater is highly original within her primary field; we’re just glad that

Fly Pan Am ~ Frontera

This is one fast album.  When we write, “After 25 years, Fly Pan Am shows no sign of slowing down,” take it literally. While a hint of the speed can be found at the end of last year’s extended video single

Ziúr ~ Antifate

Back in 2017, we were blown away by Ziúr‘s debut album U Feel Anything?  At the time, the Berlin’s DJ / composer was already mining new territories.  Over the past few years, she’s continued to chart her own path, flirting with the

Nainita Desai ~ The Reason I Jump

The film release has been delayed to June 18, but we already have an exquisite sneak peak in the music of Nainita Desai.  The Reason I Jump is an elegant study of autism, based on Naoki Higashida’s striking autobiography, written when
