Tambour ~ Chapitre I
We first encountered Tambour (Montreal’s Simon P. Castonguay) on a split release with Julien Marchal, but three minutes of solo piano was not enough to form a lasting impression. Now the composer has returned with a string quartet, and the results are

Gilles Gobeil ~ Les lointains
The final piece of our empreintes DIGITALes triptych demonstrates the diversity of the label, as well as the intelligence of its artists. Québec’s Gilles Gobeil has over 25 years of recordings under his belt, but has not released a solo album since

Georges Forget ~ Le dernier présent
With tracks inspired by a Terence Malick film, a Melville novel, and poems by Baudelaire and the French sailing champion Olivier de Kersauson, Le dernier présent wears its literary heart on its sleeve. Yet it is an album of few words, the most obvious

Åke Parmerud ~ Growl
What do birdsong, vinyl crackle, techno beats and heavy metal growls have in common? They all appear on Åke Parmerud’s latest collection. This seemingly disparate set of subjects unites to form a surprisingly coherent whole. The Gothenburg artist has defied the

Apologies ~ A Disgrace to Modern Science
If you’re driving somewhere exciting (a date, a party, a sporting event) and are only twenty minutes away from your destination, pop this in the player and let it rip. A Disgrace to Modern Science is a pure psychedelic rock jam
