Folklore Tapes ~ Black Dog Traditions of England
Ian Humberstone and David Chatton Barker have done it again. Two years have passed since Theo Brown and the Folklore of Dartmoor, and many fine sets have been released by Folklore Tapes since then, but Black Dog Traditions of England is the heir apparent

Jean-Michel Blais ~ II
Just ignore the fact that this bright, endearing set has been named II; it’s the debut album by Montreal-based composer-pianist Jean-Michel Blais. With so many piano albums being released as of late, this one comes as a breath of fresh air. Multiple tempos

The Knot ~ Tidewrack
Cabin Floor Esoterica has just unleashed a quartet of tapes, each containing its own unique ephemera: moss, twig, linen, polished stone. The physical textures draw attention to the textured sounds. Adam Cadell‘s album features acoustic fiddle; Sparkling Wide Pressure, guitar, reverb

Tomonari Nozaki ~ Triple EP Series
Tomonari Nozaki‘s brilliant triple EP series has been unfolding over the course of three months. Now that the series is complete, we can step back and appreciate its overall tapestry. When combined, the parts total 62:16 and form a singular

Mikael Lind ~ Intentions and Variations
What a cover. Julia Guther’s “remixed artwork” is the EP’s entry point, making one think, I have to hear this. Fortunately, the collection is a pure reflection of its cover, sounding like synaesthetic falling stars. Those who remember Reykjavik’s Mikael Lind from his 2013

Ash Koosha ~ I AKA I
“That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” It’s a powerful statement (attributed to Friedrich Nietzsche), although not always true. Fortunately it does apply to Iranian artist Ash Koosha, who has been jailed for his art and seen others

The Sly and Unseen ~ The Crossley Heritage
When it comes to making cool collector’s editions, Wist Records is one of the finest. Their jackdaw series (each one a book-sized envelope containing the music and various ephemera) returns with The Crossley Heritage, offering recipients some history along with their

Roly Porter ~ Third Law
As spring is here, I think it’s safe to declare that Roly Porter‘s Third Law is my favorite album of winter. It’s stayed in my CD rotation since January and I’m still enjoying it just as much, although I’ve been playing it louder and louder.
