Aho Ssan ~ Simulacrum
As one might guess from the artist’s untranslatable moniker, Simulacrum is a highly unusual album. Aho Ssan (Désiré Niamké) grew up black in a French suburb, and his music is a commentary on discrimination and displacement. It’s not a friendly set; the textures

Olivia Louvel ~ SculptOr
Olivia Louvel‘s first album explored the relationship between Elizabeth I and Mary, Queen of Scots; her second celebrates British sculptor Barbara Hepworth. These works share a colorful tone that tempers their didactic background, calling attention not only to the acts

Goodbye Eilean, Hello Laaps ~ (eilean 100) and The Alvaret Ensemble’s ea
Mathias Van Eecloo’s Eilean Records ended its six-year mission in December, finishing a 100-point map with the massive 82-track (eilean 100). A new decade has brought a new project called Laaps, launching with The Alvaret Ensemble‘s ea (not to be confused with the band’s AE). Today we

Colin Stetson ~ Color Out of Space OST
The score launches with a creepy, gooey miasma, as if some lugubrious extraterrestrial force were seeping into our soil and souls. And as a matter of fact, it is! The glissandos and rustlings of opening set piece “West of Arkham”

Philip Samartzis & Eric La Casa ~ Captured Space
What is the role of wilderness in the imagination? Is wilderness still wild if it is walled? In a preserve, who are the captors, and who are the captives? These are only a few of the questions asked by Philip Samartzis
