Various Artists ~ One Minute Older
Got a minute? Four years have passed since Second Language released Minute Papillon, a collection of sixty one-minute songs with liner notes so small they had to be read with a magnifying glass (included with purchase). In this spirit comes

möström ~ we speak whale
The genre-defying debut of female trio möström is a sparkling original, beguiling in the best sense. These Viennese veterans of other bands (including Gustav, broken.heart.collector and The Vegetable Orchestra, dedicated to “the exploration of the acoustic properties of vegetables” – really!) have

Ali Helnwein ~ Strange Creations (Vinyl)
We love watching artists develop, and even more, we love watching them succeed. When Spring Break Tapes released Strange Creations in 2012, we were impressed with Ali Helnwein‘s mainstream notoriety (an Emmy and credit on a Grammy!) But since Helnwein’s release of Voyage

Daniel Blomquist ~ Nascent/Egress
Soothing and challenging in alternate measures, Daniel Blomquist’s two-track Nascent/Egress is an exercise in erasure and composure, a series of movements abraded like glass in the waves until it possesses a new allure. This happens. This is something that happens. The sparse

Teeth Engraved With the Names of the Dead ~ Above/Below
Summer is typically a time for Jeeps and beaches, but if life starts to get a little too bright, and the happy faces are too much to take, this cassette provides a lovely dark alternative. With a name like Teeth Engraved

Timothy Fairless ~ Plural
The second time’s the charm for Timothy Fairless, as he follows last year’s 4-track, 27-minute EP with a 4-track, 29-minute EP. Measurement laid the groundwork for Plural, a unified work that could fall into any one of our seven categories, a rare

Various Artists ~ Trade & Distribution Almanac Volume Four
I recently spent a weekend in a city that seemed to play only 80s pop music. Every store, bar and radio station shared the same playlist. As I drove away at the end of the weekend, I was thankful for
