Various Artists ~ the opposite of aloof vol. 1
The opposite of aloof is warm, interested, involved. This premiere release from the Attractive Coincidence (ACR) label makes a fine introduction not only to the London imprint, but to a number of new artists. Some familiar names (José Soberanes, Strom Noir) provide the

Thomas William Hill ~ Asylum for Eve
Once in a while, we come across an artist so good that we are flabbergasted not to have heard of them before. On even rarer occasions, we realize that we have. Multi-instrumentalist Thomas William Hill is the founder (and at one time,

Poppy Nogood ~ Mood Paintings
Poppy Nogood‘s follow-up to last year’s Music for Mourning continues to delve into the personal realm. The unofficial subtitle, “a self-portrait in four parts”, marks it as an introspective set; the fact that a dozen instruments are played by the artist and

Last Builders of Empire ~ Άͅδης | Hades
We greatly enjoyed Last Builders of Empire‘s Post-War, a conceptual album that served as the soundtrack to a soldier’s last letter. Hades can be seen as a natural follow-up to that work, taking the Dante insprirations to an even deeper level. Over the

Various Artists ~ 010
010 is not the tenth in a series, but the area code for the city of Rotterdam, from which all of these sounds were sourced. On the surface, this is an electronic album, but below the surface, it’s the heartbeat and

Giordano Simoncini & Alessandro Incorvaia ~ Check Out
To check out means to investigate; it also means to die. Both meanings are applicable to this new multimedia offering from Giordano Simoncini and Alessandro Incorvaia, available as a 10″ record plus photographic book. The images stand well on their own, as does the

Marcus Fjellström ~ Skelektikon
To enter Skelektikon is to enter a world of dark fantasy. The elegant video for “Hermitage” (directed by Marcus Fjellström himself) is drenched in dark shadows and simultaneously informed by Kafka and Grimm. Strange creatures and contraptions interact as the moon rises diagonally

Colin Andrew Sheffield & James Eck Rippie ~ Essential Anatomies
Fourteen years is a long break, but that’s how long it took Colin Andrew Sheffield & James Eck Rippie to return to the studio. Variations first appeared in 2001, followed by two sound installations; then silence. When one listens to the newly expanded
