Reviews

Andrew Duke - 'From The Deep End'

Andrew Duke - From The Deep End
Duke's music is generally meditative, to be absorbed and digested, deciphered and interpreted as you wish. There is undoubtedly a personal message, mood or feeling for Duke himself, but the music feels so intensely personal and carefully assembled that it deserves the listener's full concentration and attention.

Kenji Siratori - 'Melancholic Lobotomy'

Kenji Siratori - Melancholic Lobotomy
Although Kenji seems to specialize in spoken word, he is more than competent enough to step up to the music plate as well as shown by this short release, which has a good enough balance of dark atmospherics and noise to keep one interested.

Cría Cuervos - 'Vor Feuerschlünden'

Cría Cuervos - Vor Feuerschlünden
Recorded entirely without synthesizers, this experimental electro-acoustic album consists of field recordings, self-programmed theta waves, shortwaves and software-generated sounds. If drone and electronic experimentation are your favoured genres, "Vor Feuerschlünden" is worth a closer look.

I, Synthesist - 'Art Of Survival'

I, Synthesist - Art Of Survival
It would seem that Chris Ianuzzi sought to supplement his signature dry and minimalist sound with explicit club-friendly beats, an approach whose efficacy can be questioned, even more so in the context of a full-length album.

Missouri - 'Run With the People and Hunt With the Hare'

Missouri - Run With the People and Hunt With the Hare
Even if the themes expressed on "Run With the People and Hunt With the Hare" aren't exactly musically progressive or culturally critical, they at least provide enough classic groove in a straightforward, egalitarian manner to keep the party rolling.
