Gideon Wolf ~ Replicas

What happened to the places we used to know?  The question is nostalgic, melancholic, hanging in the air like a dust mote.  A further question, perplexed, shellshocked: What happened to people?  And the last, perhaps most frightening question:  What happened to me?

V/A ~ Sleeplaboratory1.0

Happy third anniversary to Harry Towell’s Whitelabrecs, which is celebrating the occasion with a landmark 50th release.  Since January 2016, we’ve become enamored with these limited run CDs that look like baby records.  Sleeplaboratory1.0 includes a disc-sized facsimile of an album sleeve.

MYMK ~ Garlands

The last album from MYMK (Brasília’s Bruno Sres) was encased in concrete.  Early editions of the new album come with a second disc ~ a visual album from Yoshi Sodeoka.  These additions make the releases unique.  But the best thing about

Cheryl E. Leonard ~ Watershed

Is it cold where you are?  It’s 7F here, which makes the cold weather recordings of Cheryl E. Leonard a perfect accompaniment.  Watershed is active and enthralling, existing on the invisible reef between field recording and improvisation.  On the surface, this is a

Dolphin Midwives ~ Liminal Garden

The name of the project and the lushness of the album might cause one to assume that Dolphin Midwives is a large electronic ensemble.  Instead Dolphin Midwives is the alias of multi-instrumentalist and composer Sage Fisher, perhaps best known for her harp
