An intriguing release by French musician Flo Rosset, who combines electronica, hip-hop and percussive beat into the sort of techno I wish more artists in the genre aspired to. An intelligent release, musically.

ARROWOUNDS – The Loneliness of the Hollow Earth Explorer Vol. 1
Thanks to our old friends at Lost Tribe Sound, who bring us the latest ARROWOUNDS album. The description at their Bandcamp site is absolutely grand: “A love letter to the Ohio River Valley, the Earthworks, and the esoteric mysteries of the cave systems in the Southern OH/KY regions. With weavings Continue Reading
Stephen Briggs – Good Friday
In celebration of Good Friday, we present Stephen Briggs and his dark, brooding ambient masterpiece that gives an unpleasant image of The Lord starting this Paschal period through His death. The music sets the tone quite well. From his Bandcamp site: “Good Friday was also inspired by the spirit that Continue Reading

Some of the covers were Continue Reading
William Ryan Fritch – Adhesion
Being under the annoying grip of having to use a VPN has been an irritant living in the city of my employment. Being in Japan led to a horrible surprise in that I have been missing some stunning releases. Thankfully, I have a chance to amend this, so I start Continue Reading
picnic – picnic
I am going to assume that picnic hails from Australia, as this is where their record label, Dais Art, is based. The album has a cinematic, drone-laden feel, but rather than being foreboding, it’s a very warm-sounding album. Imagine music to swim in warm waters to. Quite pleasant!
VLMV – Flora & Fauna
VLMV comes from Great Britain, where he (they?) was, like everyone during these days, heavily affected by the cursed lockdown. This album, ethereal to its core, is the soundtrack to his coming back out to the world.
Oksana Linde – Travesías
From Buh Records’ Bandcamp site: “Venezuelan composer Oksana Linde presents Travesías, her second album released by Buh Records, featuring pieces created between 1986 and 1994 in her private studio in San Antonio de Los Altos, Venezuela. These compositions belong to the same creative period as the works included in her Continue Reading
Scanner & Nurse with Wound – Contrary Motion
It looks so strange to see these two names paired up together for the first time, yet it feels weird that they had never collaborated before (to my knowledge). Neither project should need an introduction as both Robin Rimbaud (Scanner) and Steven Stapleton (Nurse With Wound) have nearly four decades Continue Reading
