Lustmord – Much Unseen Is Also Here
The legendary Lustmord has a new album which releases on March 15, 2024. Judging by the one track currently available to sample, this will be a creepy, heavy album with all the horror of watching a Bosch painting melt while on acid. This will be that deep.
Dragonflies In The Garden – Happy Days, Sad Memories
Dragonflies In The Garden is one of the many aliases of Brazilian artist IO. This project concentrates on a shoegaze-meets-post-punk sound, sounding like the Durutti Column and Tuxedomoon blending in a minimalist way.
Skyjelly – Spirit Guide مرشد حقيقة (Mahorka Edition)
Boston’s Skyjelly are a bit of a revelation for me. They sound like a post-punk band infused with the power of Krautrock bands like Faust or the British trio This Heat. One of the best of the year so far!

Each of the nine tracks brings us deeper into the Continue Reading
Mich Gerber – Shoreline
Thanks to one of my friends for turning me on to the works of Swiss bassist Mich Gerber. From his Bandcamp site: “Instrumental album with Andi Pupato (perc, drums), inspired by music that has been played during the blue hour concerts along shorelines. Mich Gerber plays the double bass as Continue Reading
Steve Roach and Robert Rich – Waves of Now
From the legendary duo’s Bandcamp site: “We present this soulful 30 year reunion between two stalwarts of Ambient-Electronic music in its entirety, exactly as it occurred. Steve and Robert answered the urge for unification after a very long orbit and 40 year friendship, reuniting and engaging their collective creative process, Continue Reading
Jeff Gburek – Oxygen is not for the Dead
