SUNN O))) will have a new album available on April 3, 2026. There is only one track available to sample, but if this is an indication of what the whole album will be like, it will make for brutal listening. I’m looking forward to it, though I have a feeling Continue Reading

Chet Baker – My Funny Valentine (Live)
No need to say anything else. Choose your favorite adult beverage and enjoy.
Emmylou Harris – Stumble Into Grace
I rarely share a country album, but because it’s Emmylou Harris, I’m happy to make an exception. She was the most remarkable (and stunningly beautiful) singer of the 1970s in my humble opinion, and though her black locks have gone silver over the years, both the voice and the face Continue Reading
Jeff Gburek – Musica Povera Electronica: Volume 1
Jeff Gburek is constantly crafting new music for us. From his latest Bandcamp release: Prose Poem for Musica Povera Electronica Launch!

Jeff Gburek – Sound Travels in Babadag (Romania)
As the year comes to a close, we receive a gift of field recordings by Jeff Gburek from one of his recent trips to Romania. It’s one of those releases where you can simply close your eyes and briefly forget you’re in the city.
Aidan Baker with Felipe Salazar – At Komma
From Aidan’s Bandcamp site: Five track album (one streaming sample) recorded live at Komma in Esslingen, Germany in February 2014. Live sound and mastering by Ralv Milberg, released on limited CD by Tokyo Jupiter Records.
Ken Clinger – KC.60
Ken Clinger is one of those Bandcamp artists who release a ton of stuff, but he has quite a few gems in this catalog. This one reminds me of artists like Visage and Gary Numan.
Jeff Gburek & Friends – Decembryonic Journey 2025
As the year heads to a close, our friend Jeff Gburek offers up one of his last releases of 2025. From his Bandcamp site: “Although most of these tracks were realized in October and November, I’ve chosen to give the title over to the coming moon of December and the Continue Reading
