Botany ~ Lava Diviner (Truestory)

Spencer Stevenson released his debut 45 in 2010, but the ensuing years have been well spent.  Lava Diviner (Truestory) is an amplification of themes introduced on Feeling Today, and enriches the Botany sound. Even as a child, Stevenson was interested in sampling, toying with

Depatterning ~ The Huddled Tone Eps

Aw, what’s in the box?  It’s too small to be Gwyneth Paltrow’s head, so it’s probably some sort of keepsake.  Oh, what a nice surprise!  It’s a set of old photographs, a trio of CD3″s, a stamp and a coin!

Jeff Carey ~ [3:30]

The perfect pop single is 3:30 in length and is the starting point for this EP.  Yet despite their radio-friendly length, these six nuggets will never make the pop charts.  This is a shame, because even the edgiest pop smash,

Neg-Fi ~ Unmergency

When it comes to physical releases, some companies just mail it in.  Not so Geweih Ritual Documents, whose attention to detail is astonishing.  The limited edition of the label’s latest cassette glows in the dark.  And that cover art!  Metallic

David Vélez and Simon Whetham ~ Yoi

Two field recording artists get lost in the Amazon jungle.  This may sound like the setup to a joke (and such artists likely have their own brand of humor), but in this case, it was the starting point for an

Bjarni Gunnarsson ~ Processes & Potentials

3leaves is known for their experimental leanings, but their latest release is one of their most abrasive yet, a far cry from the field recordings that have been their bread and butter.  It’s also one of the label’s finest releases

Monotronaut ~ I Dream Your Melt Shapes

Many styles are present on I Dream Your Melt Shapes, ranging from post-rock to ambient to electronic, but the most appealing is a shoegaze vibe.  For those who miss that sound, this EP is a pleasant reminder that all is not

Aaron Martin / Christoph Berg ~ Day Has Ended

Barely a year has passed since Moscow’s Dronarivm label began producing physical releases, and they’ve already become a name to trust.  With Day Has Ended, Dronarivm now branches into the territory of modern composition.  The pairing of cross-pond artists Aaron Martin and
