Layering samples on old tape and making music on all manner of quaintly out-of-date appurtenances—one of the many musical children to which Boards of Canada […]
Reviews
Fis :: The Blue Quicksand Is Going Now (Loopy)
A veneer of unkempt noise and disorder is attended by intimations of hyper-timbral detail and hermetic design. There’s definitely something in the water in Wellington […]
Joe Drive :: Anamorphic Age (Kooaad Muzik)
Below some of those ashen elements lies warmth, subtle movements and shifts that elevate this inaugural 12” on KOOAAD into something more. I’ve been covering […]
Heidi Lord :: English Electric (Weme)
Each piece is self-contained perpetual motion. Sourcing MRI equipment, modular synthesizers, gongs and guitars, sampled conversation from the grocery store and her own voice, she waxes […]

Upon arriving at their destination, all exited the car without speaking—except for one who said in halting, broken English, “Music… Very weird. Dark. Good.” Which […]
Flatland Sound Studio :: Maximum Vacation Plus (Bedroom Research)
It could almost be the soundtrack to a cold medicine overdose or the after effect of watching too many foreign language cartoons while recovering from […]
Legiac :: The Faex Has Decimated (Tympanik Audio)
It hits so hard and sounds so ear-ticklingly right… There was a time when it seemed like the Funcken brothers released a new album monthly. […]
