From our friends at Mahorka Records: “”Collected not lost” is a decade of Autonomaton’s work, outside of LPs and EPs, collected. The music was released in the period from 2015 to the end of 2025. It’s done mostly through dubbing and overdubbing sound approaches. Both computer and hardware were used. Continue Reading

Adela Mede – Ne Lépj a Virágra
Stunningly good vocal work here. From Adela Mede’s Bandcamp site: “Composed and recorded during the last 18 months in Bratislava, Slovakia – a city where three countries meet, where the East and the West collide – ‘Ne Lépj a Virárga’ translates to “don’t step on the flower”. Its themes – Continue Reading
Ian Hawgood – 朝 (Morning)
I stumbled across Ian Hawgood’s work some months ago, and I ended up quite enjoying it, mainly because of the soft, gentle, natural droning sounds he comes up with. It’s best to read about his methodology below. From his Bandcamp site: “During the first lockdown here in the UK, I Continue Reading
Internal Fusion – Conte de la pensée dernière
Our dear friends at Mahorka Records bestow us a fine album of frighteningly good electroacoustic music, brutal in its tenor. From the label’s Bandcamp site: “Eric Latteux aka Internal Fusion is a dark ambient artist, born in 1964, based in Britany (France). He has been active since the early ’90s Continue Reading
Saba Alizadeh – Rituals Of The Last Dawn
Being an insomniac has some advantages. As is normal for me, I stayed wide awake until 4 a.m. listening to music. While doing so, I came across an album by kamancheh maestro Saba Alizadeh which was so eerily beautiful that I had to suggest it for your perusal. The avant-garde Continue Reading
Lia Bosch – Ever Expanding
Lia Bosch, as I understand it, is a sound composer from Italy who has made an album that feels like the soundtrack to my mind these days. It’s quite a dark listening experience, mixing drones, a sort of 1950s B-movie soundtrack vibe, and post-industrial menace. Quite powerful listening, if a Continue Reading
Carmela & Carme López – Vinde Todas
This is something of a live music artifact containing not only the work of avant-garde gaitera Carme López but that of some of the best names of the Celtic music scene in Spain.
Heathertoes – Ballagàrraidh
My dear brother in music, Heathertoes, has released a great album for rainy-day listening. Elements of dub, trip-hop, and a crunch, almost lo-fi electronic music aesthetic, spice up an album’s worth of brilliant ideas sketched into pleasant daytime listening.
sanguis – Wounding
From the sanguis Bandcamp site: “Wandinger tries to capture fleeting moments – all tracks are unedited first takes, some recorded only with his phone in various places, from a friend’s flat in Neukölln to his family home in rural Bavaria. Background noises become a part of the music and create Continue Reading
Philippe Petit – The Acoustic Cornet, an hommage to Leonora Carrington
From our friends at Mahorka Records via their Bandcamp site: “Philippe Petit approaches (Leonora) Carrington’s text as one would approach a signal coming from another frequency. Fragments. Resonances. Distorted transmissions. The acoustic cornet becomes a metaphor for listening itself: an instrument that amplifies what society prefers to keep inaudible.”
