Camera ~ Prosthuman
Camera‘s propulsive Prosthuman is a krautrock explosion, bound to get the feet moving to the dance floors or whatever counts as a dance floor these days (bedroom floor, garage). This marks the beginning of the band’s second decade, including a lineup shift,

Drifts and Flurries ~ A Second Language Collectanea
Few pairings are as exquisite as winter music and snow; Drifts & Flurries provides one in hope of the other. Distinctly British in tone, this set begs to be accompanied by a good book; we recommend The Wrong Kind of Snow (Penn

Aaron Cupples ~ Island of the Hungry Ghosts OST
Island of the Hungry Ghosts is a dark, three-tiered film. Billed as a “hybrid documentary,” the film receives a hybrid score, with music from Aaron Cupples and field recordings from Leo Dolgan. The sound design is cinematic even without the visuals, producing the mental

Animated Matter ~ Selkie
The concept album is a much-maligned tradition, but only because too many artists go overboard. Selkie is a concept album done right, with a simple premise based on a well known legend. From Scottish and Irish mythology to movies such as

Francisco López ~ Two-Headed Snake
Until recently, sound artist Francisco López has been known for his hundreds of solo releases; that’s about to change with the digital debut of label Two-Headed Snake. Each album pairs López with a second artist (the two-headed snake), and offers two tracks,

Hauschka with Rob Petit and Robert Macfarlane ~ Upstream
Late last year, a gorgeous half-hour film appeared online, streamed by Emergence. Upstream is now back on the film festival circuit, and comes highly recommended, especially for those who enjoyed Esther Kokmeijer’s Stillness. The films share a slow-moving depth, an environmental tug and

The Tin Box ~ Play
Last spring, we reviewed Places, a charming EP from Brooklyn’s The Tin Box, which was a highlight from Hibernate’s 26-release benefit for the homeless. The artist followed this with Places II in the fall, rounding the project to album length. This year, The Tin

Philip Sulidae ~ Vandemonian Verplaatsing / Simon Whetham ~ Dry
Two new recordings from Unfathomless approach field recordings from different angles. One is location based, the other theme based. Together they form an intricate lattice of sound. Vandemonian Verplaatsing (the latter word meaning displacement) collects recordings made in Hobart, Tasmania over a
