Olan Mill ~ Hiraeth

The second phase of Olan Mill continues with Hiraeth, an album that complements last year’s Home in timbre while balancing it in subject.  A rough translation of the Welsh title is “homesickness for a home to which you cannot return”.  Reflecting this concept, the sounds

Pacific 231 ~ Micromega

What a long, strange trip it’s been.  2013 marks Pierre Jolivet’s 30th year of making music, which makes him one of the longest-standing artists we’ve featured.  In 1984, his brand of industrial power drone made him a hit on the

Hear Cape Cod Volumes One & Two

Field recordings are often described as calming, unique, and valuable, but seldom as fun.  Hear Cape Cod is fun.  Steve Wilkes’ lovingly curated project takes the genre into the mainstream without a single whiff of compromise.  It’s the sort of souvenir that
