Reviews
Samantha Grace Edwards :: Graceland (Beartown)
Puntastic title aside, this one-act sound playlet brings down a proper, dirty brick chill onto even the most clement day. Out of a damp pedestrian underpass […]
The Laborer :: The Changing Tide (Wist Rec)
Ambient micro-tonalism with slow moving and abundant manipulated textures, sporadic noisy frequencies, miniature-like sound sculptures whose original source mainly comes from acoustic instruments, field recordings. […]

A dynamic, colorful and cinematic sounding electronic ambient album that will ravish fans of 70s/80s B-grade film scores from sci-fi to thrillers and twister experimental […]
Alio Die & Parallel Worlds :: Elusive Metaphor (Hic Sunt Leones)
Elusive Metaphor waxes like a benevolent force of nature, one from a time when the world remained enchanted, premodern. Soft, engulfing, and serene sylvan settings, […]
