Slip into a meditative abyss with Jessica Blanchet's vocals... ______________________________ ______________________________ _____________________ Previously :: Mister Lies - Hidden Neighbors EP

- Frequenze must listen! - Bisogna spingersi alle periferie estreme della musica per trovare suoni ad alta intensità che non si confondano con nient'altro. Non è un percorso semplice, la strada è lunga e ci vuole una buona dose di fortuna. Dapprima superare la sovra popolata pianura dell'insignificante, poi addentrarsi nelle buia foresta dell'ignorato, dove solo pochi hanno il coraggio di entrare. Isolato laggiù il londinese Romare ha trascorso l'ultimo anno ha raccogliere campioni per lavorare ad un utopia filosofale: [...]

Welcome to Dreamlab. As this is the inaugural column, it seems appropriate to introduce you to the premise. A couple of weeks ago, Evan Minsker debuted his column, Trash Collector , a series that explores "music that's immediate, doesn't pull punches, is fast, propulsive, slack-jawed, manic, screaming, ridiculous, sludgy, lo-fi, and loud." In that sense, Dreamlab offers the foil, examining the sonic fringe of music and the artists who eschew traditional structures and forage inspiration from decidedly niche source materials. These artists create sounds that stretch and breathe and yield unusual, creative works that can [...]
Say you've just built a particle accelerator, and it's about to be opened. How do you mark this event? Chances are you wouldn't make too much fuss about it. A buffet table, some press, a few local dignitaries and civil servants, that sort of thing. Maybe get a politician to come along, depending on how anti-science the public mood is at the time. Not the team behind the opening of the SPring-8 Synchrotron in Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan. No, they decided to hold a festival to celebrate, and invited Australian experimental composer Alan Lamb to [...]
Once upon a time, the blunted monkey fist was a legendary hip hop style which remained undisturbed for many moments. Budamunk, with the help of other disciples and masters from around the world, was... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]
While not as solid as some of the Auteurs and Black Box Recorder mastermind's past conceptual dabbles, Nine and a Half ... is a marvel all the same. Reviewing a Luke Haines release is destined to put the critic at a disadvantage. No matter the magnitude of praise heaped upon it, we will never deem a release as ingenious as the mastermind behind the Auteurs and co-mastermind behind Black Box Recorder does. When the critic is an American, the disadvantages are even greater: as deft a songwriter as Haines is (and he's one of the deftest that [...]
I'm just over here drawing up some Ivy League Spins stickers for all of you lovely people, and thought I would share what I'm listening to. Here's a short playlist of what's blaring through my headphones. Enjoy: Prince Fatty - Bedroom Eyes Dub (ft. Natty) Prince Fatty - Need It (ft. Little Roy) Hugh Roy - Flashing My Whip [...]
So over a year ago I essentially turned my entire life over to a project called Brooklyn Babylon . It's an urban fable about a master carpenter named Lev Bezdomni, who is comissioned by the supreme local authority, the Mayor of Brooklyn, to build the carousel that will crown the tallest building in the world, which is being constructed in the heart of Brooklyn. My co-creator is the amazing visual artist Danijel Zezelj , who has hand-painted the thousands and thousands of indiviudal images that go into the projected animation. He will also be painting [...]

The San Francisco Zen Center isn't a place I'd normally expect to see a rock show, but the Center's upcoming "Meditations on San Francisco" event on October 8th (6pm, $12), co-presented with The Bold Italic , is set to feature performances by local drone-rockers Barn Owl , Date Palms , and Danny Paul Grody . Visual artist David Wilson will also be in attendance, showcasing "an interactive installation, which will allow guests to engage in a creative group activity, forming [...]

Easily the most beautiful thing I've heard in quite some time. From Tom Auty of Ann Arbor, who records ambient loops as Sad Souls . Fans of Geotic will certainly appreciate this. Follow Sad Souls on bandcamp , SoundCloud and Twitter . Apeiron by Sad Souls (via The Apiary )

Luke Hainesin uraan mahtuu monta odottamatonta käännettä ja projektia. Listalta löytyy mm. teemalevy terroristiryhmä Baader Meinhofista , yritys saada aikaan kansallinen poplakko , yksi hittisingle sekä 50 livealbumia , jotka julkaistiin samaan aikaan. Mitä tämän kaiken jälkeen? Tietysti psykedeelinen teemalevy, joka käsittelee brittiläisen painin kulta-aikaa! Nine And A Half Psychedelic Meditations On British Wrestling Of The 1970s And Early '80s -levy ilmestyy 10. lokakuuta digitaalisena versiona ja myöhemmin myös rajoitetusti muina versioina. Mistä levyssä on kyse? Hauska promokirje kertokoon: Luke Haines has made this album so that [...]
New Jersey progressive metallers The Binary Code have posted a brand new pre-production track called "Dark Meditations" on their Facebook page. Two other pre-production tracks, "Unexist" and "Trees 100 Feet Underwater," were posted by the band earlier this summer. All three tracks come from an as-of-yet untitled album tentatively set to be recorded later this [...]

Brand new untitled piano essay from Diamond Messages . It's plenty chill, but it's not chillwave. Or, if there is a wave, it's in the way these majestic mediatations curl and fold into one another like raindrops running off deep green leaves. Part of a compilation celebrating Spontaneous Rhythm 's first birthday. MP3: Diamond Messages - Untitled

Man/Miracle - "Meditations on Nothing" Here's a brand new song from Oakland's Man/Miracle , one of our favorite bands and a group you won't want to miss at Saturday's Phono del Sol Festival . There's been a lot going on in the M/M camp lately: new recordings, an upcoming cross-country tour, and a change in the band's lineup. To explain the new song and the group's plans, band member Dylan Travis gave us the following comment: This song is [...]

I am remiss to have not posted Moon Gangs immediately upon hearing "Sea" on 20jazzfunkgreats , and further to have not posted it in the interim. I've been listening to it A LOT. At least once a day, but usually much more. Via car stereo, computer speakers, headphones and phone speakers. Paranoid waves of steely cool sound, placated by warmer oscillations of a sun-burnt hue. Like the slip of sun that banishes the shiver of night and sets in motion the scurry of a summer's day. Ambient, kosmische, meditative, New Age, [...]
Attention death metal fetishists worldwide -- you've got new favorite band. They are Void Meditation Cult.At present time, little is known of the group. No information about the members, where the group hails from, when they formed - none of that is available. In place of trivia, there is a song -- "All of the Devil's Temple," which can be heard at Hells Headbangers' page for the band. The cult

Jürgen Müller — Sea Bed Meditation On June 16th, Digitalis will drop a long-overdue remaster/reissue of Jürgen Müller's 'lost' 1981 album Science of the Sea , which was only given 100 pressings at the time of its original release. A student of oceanic studies and an aspiring film composer. Müller recorded Science with nothing but borrowed instruments and "a handful of barely-remembered childhood piano lessons", aiming to craft a document of [...]
A banda australiana Cloud Control está cada vez mais cativando pessoas de bom gosto da terra do canguru e agora quer abraçar o mundo. Com estilo folk (ou nu folk, como preferir), passeando pelo psicodélico, o quarteto já abriu para bandas bem conhecidas, como Vampire Weekend , Supergrass, The Magic Numbers, The Temper Trap, Last Dinosaurs e Local Natives , inclusive em festivais fora da Austrália. O álbum de estreia da banda, Bliss Release , foi lançado em março do ano passado e alcançou grandes feitos no noticiário musical local, inclusive conquistou prêmio [...]
