Considering the density of each piece, The lady from New York is a surreal, disjointed, yet perplexing album that merits repeated listening to even begin scratching its multi-layered surfaces.
Reviews
Parallel Worlds :: Impressions (Móatún 7)
Parallel Worlds’ Impressions is another high-caliber album that is definitely worth listening to with its tendency toward darker tones and cinematic caliber.
Macrogramma :: Magnetic Series (Lᴏɴᴛᴀɴᴏ Series)
For Macrogramma, the medium evidently brings with it, more than nostalgia’s facile allure, in contrast to digital’s infinite possibility, an intransigence forcing definitive choices.
ARC :: Chronicle (DiN)
Chronicle contains aspects of industrial, techno, and ambient genres; with due sophistication, it meshes well with music from an earlier era.
Icky Reels :: FIND YA GURL EP (Self Released)
It’s almost as though we’re trapped in an extended dreamlike sequence surrounded by hundreds of found sounds, kaleidoscope visuals, and instrumental tones and pulses, complete with shuffled vocal samples, downtempo lounge excursions, and glitchy hip-hop slicing layers.
Wildsnail :: ADHD Breaks EP (Self Released)
To put it mildly, ADHD Breaks is a four-track EP that is both unrelenting and perplexing.
2View :: Sounding Boards — Skytree, Zachary Gray
There’s red line, thin, but distinct, between different kinds of sounding—between soundalike and sound like, resemblance and redolence, imitation and influence; thus, though sometimes end products may sound similar, in essence they differ crucially.
mmWave :: Temperamental Circuits EP (Self Released)
The EP hits hard with powerful rhythms and saturated melodic bursts, accompanied by roughened 808 sequences and atypical breaks and bass layers.
