Philip Seymour Hoffman & Mutual Benefit - Split Cassette Mutual Benefit 's enchanting " Autumn Epitaphs " rings with the jarred and twinkling ambience of morning, as sampled from Chinese song " Fishing Village Girl ", and forms the perfect inaugural track for Kassette Klub 's latest full length release. The 32-minute tape split between Mutual Benefit 's ethereal electronic folk record The Cowboy's Prayer and Philip Seamour Hoffman 's desolate and downcast Your Loving Brother is a voyage of [...]

Share-a-tories comes from Boston, Massachusetts and is the brain child of Andrew Morehart. That's pretty much all I know about them - although I do know that I love their single, "Cycling." This track is taken from their EP, Dissolved In The Dark [...]

Share-a-tories - Ignis Fatuus Share-a-tories is a band name that you should know. His previous album was a perfectly eccentric mix of beautiful sounds and now he is back with something that is just as heavy on the beautiful sounds, possibly even more so. Besides making great songs, what I really love about Share-a-tories is how he makes albums that feel like albums. Even as all over the map as his first album was, it felt like an album that was best listened to front to back [...]

Share-a-tories // Dissolved In the Dark I receive a lot of music submissions. It's something that is still very bizarre to me and I try my best to make it through all that I can, but it gets to the point where if I neglect to check my email for a day or two the inbox numbers are staggering! And while I appreciate anyone who thinks enough of my blog to send me their music, there are some that just immediately catch my eye. These are folks who semi-frequently recommend music to me [...]

My friend Jordan over at Kassette Klub recently released Dissolved in the Dark by Share-a-tories (aka Andrew Morehart) in both digital and cassette formats. Andrew plays with Mutual Benefit, but Share-a-tories is a solo effort. As I was checking out his website, I read through a pretty poignant explanation of how his music came to be. I've included a little excerpt below: In March, I came down with an inexplicable case of shingles coinciding with a [...]

Share-a-tories = Dissolved In The Dark "While I might have previously categorized this year as something of a downer, I ended up finding love, refortified friendships, and a whole new way to look at life as a series of events that, while sometimes are seemingly uncontrollable and filled with sadness, can reshape and revitalize one's ability to find love and beauty in this absurd thing we call "being alive". " You might remember [...]

I've been trying to find the time to write about this great project. Andrew Morehart is Share-a-tories and has most recently released a group of songs called Empty Figures . He comes to us via Los Angeles, Columbus, Massachusetts and probably outer space also. I had the immense pleasure of meeting Andrew this last week as he also happens to play drums for favorite experimental crooner Mutual Benefit . His love for music and being a part of it was evident even in [...]

Share-a-tories - Ahhware! You can download this album for less than a cup of coffee, and I promise you, it will give much more to you than that temporary hit of caffeine. Although, unless you are on a really tight budget, why not treat yourself and get a cup of coffee and download the album too? Consume them both together, you've earned it. If you have a walkman or ghetto blaster though, you'd be much better off buying the cassette tape (it's less than a fiver). I may [...]

The belated installment of our continuing series is here-look out for another one tomorrow, and keep the independent music suggestions coming in the comments!: The Octopus Project - Experimental / Pop - Texas, USA The Octopus Project, a quirky, experimental-electronic quartet, was first introduced to me by fellow AFIN contributor Christian some months ago, and was happy to find a press release in my inbox recently about their new EP, Golden Beds , which is out now on Peek-a-Boo Records!
