    Corrado Maria De Santis – Over a Long Time

    One of the great joys of my vocation is discovering musicians I would probably never otherwise encounter.  Enter Corrado Maria de Santis, courtesy of our dear friends at Lost Tribe Sound: “Corrado Maria De Santis, an Italian guitarist, skillfully combines the raw spontaneity of improvised guitar with computer-generated sounds, crafting captivating sonic landscapes characterized by ambient drones and glitch-infused textures.

    Sanr – Ramak (​Ş​iddet Denetimi)

    Sanr is a project out of Turkey who has released an album so drone-laden and so darkly ambient that it would have fit perfectly between a collection of Cold Meat Industry records and the Terminator 2 soundtrack.  It’s heavy, foreboding and magnificent listening if you like a horror vibe.

    ruò tán are China’s more organic answer to old post-Industrial/cassette-culture bands like Germany’s Cranioclast.  The music is eerie, yet so utterly engaging.  Probably the best reference to this music is for those of you who remember not only the aforementioned band but the early works of projects like O Yuki Conjugate out of Great Britain.  Not at all music to meditate to, but it did make for engaging music to lay back to and simply absorb.

    Kuzman Markoski has produced a rather fine EP’s worth of soundtrack-style music.  The composer, thereminist and sound designer offers a groove-filled, damn-near danceable disc.  From his Bandcamp site: “Kuzman is a versatile musician and audio-visual artist based in Skopje, Macedonia.

This highly anticipated release comes two years after his debut solo album “Collective Zero” that marked Kuzman’s first foray into the world of studio albums as a solo artist, after his successful tenure with the Berlin-based band The Protagonist and the collaboration…
