From Attila Gyárfás’ Bandcamp site: “TABBIS is an hommage to Mihály Babits, one of the most influential Hungarian poets of the first half of the 20th century. We chose nine of his poems that resonated with us the most and we used them as sources of inspiration while recording the Continue Reading

Goran Kajfeš Tropiques – Tell Us
Elegant and rather swanky music is on order today, courtesy of trumpeter Goran Kajfeš.
Sun Ra – East Two + 7
From the Sun Ra Bandcamp site: “EAST TWO + 7 comprises previously unreleased tracks from one of Sun Ra’s most productive periods: 1972–73. Those two hectic years saw Sun Ra recording numerous albums, staging concerts, teaching at Berkeley, acting in and composing the score for a full-length movie, embarking on Continue Reading
adarcah – Ordeal
adarcah is, by far, the most prolific dark ambient composer working out of Greece, and his releases are consistently good. There is a sort of quiet terror vibe to his work, and this latest mini-album is no exception.
Slavyk – 11 Songs of Love & Suffering
Our dear friends (well done, Christian) at CPL-Music have a wonderful new release from the Polish-Serbian band Slavyk. From their press release: “Slavyk is the sonic offspring of an ever-evolving international music theatre project.

E.N.D. – Null
Null is the debut release from E.N.D., who I will assume is from Brazil, particularly Porto Alegre, as the project is associated with my dear friends at M I S T, one of a myriad of boutique record labels specializing in experimental, dark ambient, drone and post-industrial music. This release, Continue Reading
Jawhinge – WeirdWired
Our dear friend and noise colleague Ivo from Mahorka Records introduces us to the project Jawhinge from Plovdiv, Bulgaria. The sound is post-industrial, but the jungle and ragga elements, along with tape samples that remind me of 1980s EBM, make this an absolute keeper. Sadly, I’m on the road, but once I’m home, Continue Reading
Stick Men – 20260403 Elkton Music Hall, Elkton, MD
Tony Levin and the side project of his I like the most have new live material available here, and it’s free. This is from a concert held in April of 2026, and the sound quality is excellent. The music is as wonderfully Crimson-esque as you would expect.
Keçaçioğlu Muhammad, Gurban Primov & Sasha Ohanezashvili – An Azeri Mugham Trio ca. 1912
From the damn-near-perfect record label Canary Records’ Bandcamp site: “Keçaçioğlu Muhammad was the stage name of Muhammad Mashadi Khalil oglu who was born June 18, 1864 in the city of Shusha in the mountainous region of the Russian Empire known to the overwhelming Armenian majority of its residents for centuries Continue Reading
Nik Masoo – XUÁN 玄
I have to give my respects to composer Nik Masoo for crossing two genres that I never figured would be bridged successfully – Chinese opera and noise. The cacophony of this release is almost cathartic, and a pleasantly aggressive energy undergirds the percussion. This turned out to be a fascinating Continue Reading
