Hopeless Local Marching Band ~ Caffeine and Sleeping Pills

Unexpected good news arrives like a minor miracle, and Caffeine and Sleeping Pills provides a double dose.  When Symbolic Interaction announced that it was going on a two-year hiatus, we feared that its roster would be doing the same.  Thankfully, this is

Lost Trail ~ October Mountain

October Mountain is the sibling of A Stained August for the Jetcrash, a cassette released simultaneously on a second label.  (What happened to September?)  When one leans forward, ear to speaker, to hear a southern man discussing wasted lives, it’s with the

Lost Trail ~ A Stained August for the Jetcrash

Husband and wife duo Zachary Corsa and Denny Wilkerson Corsa live in a century-old North Carolina house, a spooky place surrounded by dark woods, emaciated wolves and the disembodied voices of children who have lost their way.  When planes crash deep in the trees,

PJE ~ Sea of State

The Twisted Treeline label has been responsible for a good many releases in the past few months, and it’s not even a year old.  A somewhat quiet label releasing somewhat quiet music, the label is a hardworking yet humble presence

Zbeen ~ K-frame

K-frame is a chemical experiment that takes place under loose supervision.  The “k-frame” is the framework in which the sonics develop: the programming of Ennio Mazzon, the electronics of Gianluca Favaron and the field recordings of each.  Force, magnitude, velocity and direction are all listed as

Machinefabriek ~ Ontrafelde tonen

The lathe-cut Ontrafelde tonen launches the brand-new Vintermusik label in style; it’s hard to imagine a stronger start.  In 2012, Machinefabriek is already making a play to become the next jukebox hero, the king of the 45.  Ontrafelde tonen follows hot on the

eRikm ~ Transfall

While recording these six pieces for choreographies and compilations, eRikm was determined to “break out” of his normal constructive habits.  As a result, the new album is vastly different from anything in his back catalog, and is easily his finest achievement to date.

Andrea Belfi ~ Wege

Wege originated as an installation, but thankfully has found its way to disc.  The list of collaborators is impressive: Greg Haines, Machinefabriek and Valerio Tricoli, among others.  But the credit goes to Andrea Belfi for composing and leading these four articulate pieces.  His warm percussion and
