Kamancello ~ S/T
Kamancello‘s debut album offers a bit of aural trickery, as the tracks are improvised, but sound composed. The duo of Shahriyar Jamshidi on kamanche (also known as Persian spike-fiddle) and Raphael Weinroth-Browne on cello offers impressive stereo mastering that makes the listener feel

James Murray ~ Heavenly Waters
Water is a long standing theme in ambient music. From Michael Hoenig & Manuel Göttsching’s Early Water to William Basinski’s Water Music I & II, the concept of water—as an agent of movement and stasis—parallels that of the pure, fluid

Ludovic Medery ~ eMERgences
One can tell what this disc is about by focusing on the capital letters. eMERgences is about the sea. In a piece of semantic irony, the artist’s last name also cradles the word: Ludovic MEdeRy. With little description, one is invited

Fergus Kelly ~ Local Knowledge
Physical formats have seen a great deal of attrition in recent years, but the Unfathomless label has remained consistent. Their CDs are released in pairs, sent into the world like animals leaving the ark. Their high quality recordings, sonic diversity

Deison | Mingle ~ Tilaventum
One needs a poet’s heart to appreciate the wrapped gift of Tilaventum: a stone from the river included with every physical purchase. Mine is a perfectly rounded skipping stone, so I’ll need to resist the urge to try it in my own

Himmelsrandt ~ 4 Moments & Rain (With Track Premiere!)
Himmelsrandt‘s Schneeland was one of our picks for Best Winter Music in 2016. 4 Moments in Rain takes a step back toward autumn, “as if in anticipation of winter”. This lovely album pairs a re-recorded version of the four-part Rain EP with a new quartet of

ACL 2017 ~ Music for Haunted Houses
Would you enter into this house? Maybe if your potential girlfriend had been captured by a slippery entity who enjoyed taking the form of a clown. It struck a chord, arriving at just the right time, the far border of summer.

Sugai Ken ~ UkabazUmorezU
We had our first taste of UkabazUmorezU with the “Wochikaeri to Uzume” video, an oddly pulsating piece filled with laughter, TV samples, knocks, boings, screams, water, soda, gamelan and a ticking clock, all wrapped in a bubble surrounded by dancing letters. The
