Bruno Bavota ~ La casa sulla Luna
Every once in a while, we come across something that is exactly as it appears, and all the better for it. Bruno Bavota‘s album La casa sulla Luna (The house on the Moon) looks like a cheerful, romantic piano disc, and that’s

North Atlantic Drift ~ Monuments
The music of Toronto duo North Atlantic Drift rests directly on the border between ambient and post-rock. Sophomore album Monuments won’t get anyone’s head banging, but neither will it allow them to nod off. By straddling both genres, the duo should appeal to fans

Clorinde ~ The Gardens of Bomarzo
Clorinde (London-based Italian brothers Andrea and Simone Salvatici), have been working on their magnum opus for years, and all their hard work has finally paid off. The Gardens of Bomarzo has an original concept, a healthy variety of sounds and a solid

[BOLT] / Petrels ~ Split 10″
As Petrels, Oliver Barrett has shown himself more than willing to spread the wealth, releasing a number of singles and EPs over the course of the past two years, this one for Aentitainment Records. With Onkalo riding the good graces of reviewers, completists

Philippe Petit ~ Needles in Pain
Avant-garde experimentalist Philippe Petit has released many albums over the years, but this is his first recorded foray into turntablism – thankfully, released on vinyl. While most turntablists use and abuse their favorite records, Petit insists that the needles are in pain, forced to

Svarte Greiner ~ Black Tie
This is not spring music, but you probably already knew that. Svarte Greiner does not make music for flowers and bunnies, unless perhaps we are including the flowers of Little Shop of Horrors and the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog. In each of his guises, Skodvin

Zbeen ~ Eigen
Zbeen‘s music has always been about pattern, whether created or perceived: the mapping of vectors, linear and algebraic. Although the output of Gianluca Favaron and Ennio Mazzon may be based on mathematics, it sounds more like science, a theme explored in last

Haiku Salut ~ Tricolore
The three women of Haiku Salut (one for each color of Tricolore) admit a love for the music of Detekivbyran and múm and the writings of Haruki Murakami, and their debut album does justice to all three. Accordion, trumpet and glockenspiel feature strongly, as
