Boards of Canada – Inferno
I have a feeling a lot of people have been looking forward to this release, myself included, and I can happily say that Boards of Canada’s latest album didn’t disappoint. It’s a bit more subdued than other releases, but the power is still there. A fine one.
Marooned – Cinematic Echoes
Marooned is a band from Batumi, Georgia, that offers a bombastic, rather brilliant, cinematic music experience. From the band’s Bandcamp site: “”Cinematic Echoes” refers to the resonance of memories, themes, stories and soundscapes from past time, which echoes through our lives every day in present, looking forward to a better Continue Reading
The Uproot Group – Vampires
Every time I delve into the Mexican new music scene, I come up with something brilliant, but this time I was given a heads-up by The Uproot Group band member Enrico Gianfranchi to hear this album. What can I say? This made my day! The release blends jazz (naturally) with Continue Reading

Fr0m mulemusiq’s Bandcamp site: “Altogether ten tracks by nine children of Brian Eno, Cluster, Arvo Pärt, and Steve Reich, who all express something honest and unsophisticated while using their machines and instruments in a heartfelt way.

Considering the power of the storm we had this evening, it seems like a perfect time to hear some brutally dark ambient music. What’s so special about Black-Sided Sun? First, the composer, Yuri Ilyin, is a Russian who became a Batumi local (this intrigues me as I have no idea 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
