Day Before Us :: Adorned Path Of Stillness (Twilight, GH Records)
‘Odd literature, ghostly presence, angelology’–things from which Philippe Blache claims inspiration for his ‘antipop-cinematic-nocturnal-melancholic soundscapes’ as Day Before Us; ‘solemn soundscaping ritualism, dada-esque hypnopedies and soundtracky ambiences,’ visible […]

Ikuko Morozumi :: Proof Of Existence (Detroit Underground)
A vast mechanized soundscape of turbulent drones and industrial chaos at its most creative. I’m heading into Proof Of Existence with a blank slate, tuned […]
