From the Bandcamp site, we have great news from Mute Records!: “Psychedelia in White, the third album from former member of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Mick Harvey and longtime collaborator Amanda Acevedo, is a natural evolution from their 2023 duet debut, Phantasmagoria in Blue. Composed primarily of original Continue Reading

Ayden George – The Slave Revolt! (TNO: The Last Days of Europe. Helmut Schmidt’s Theme)
Respect to Saba for introducing me to the work of Ayden George, a Canadian game and film music composer. Though I know soundtrack music pretty well, having been trained by a brilliant man during my time at Aron’s Records in Los Angeles, I have absolutely no knowledge of the gaming Continue Reading

ZAMEEN-A is a violinist and composer based in Canada whose work I stumbled across on Instagram, and a bit of good luck. From her Bandcamp site: “Cry [No More] is the debut album of violin/artist ZAMEEN-A; an experimental, concept-driven project that juxtaposes the deconstructed melodies of Persian violin with the Continue Reading
Michal Wolski – Unfolding
From Michal Wolski’s Bandcamp site: “Michal Wolski is known for his esoteric, tripped-out and planetary style of techno and the Unfolding EP on Naarm-based label Southern Lights does not disappoint, with ‘Unfolding’ and ‘Elastic’ delivering a heady blend of modular synth reverberations and striking drum patterns.

Krivitsky – Criminal Elements
This is the latest album by Israeli artist Krivitsky, whom we reviewed in November 2023. His latest release is deep nu-jazz with an Italian krimi soundtrack vibe that reminds me of Calibro 35. Deep, funky, and cold.
Roberto Guimarães – Saudade de Mim
From Roberto Guimarães‘ Bandcamp site (translated): “Economist and self-taught musician, Roberto Guimarães was one of the pioneers of the Bossa Nova movement in Minas Gerais.

Andreij Rublev & Zot Lukta – Limestone
Free improvisers Andreij Rublev & Zot Lukta bring together no-input mixers, clarinets, electronics, PVC tubes and even the stone-walled room the duo recorded in. Quite a fun listen.
Ziad Rahbani – Ana Moush Kafer LP Special Edition
It never ends. Wewantsounds continues being the best archive label of all time, in my humble estimation, and their latest, a gem by Ziad Rahbani, is a scorcher. “Wewantsounds is delighted to continue its Ziad Rahbani reissue program with Ana Moush Kafer, a classic album by the Lebanese legend Ziad Continue Reading
Bruno Berle – Sem Fronteiras
The estimable Far Out Recordings scores another hit with Bruno Berle’s latest album, one which perfectly blends a more updated bossa nova sound with a more R&B-style groove underpinning the release. Elegant.
