New Music

Kendraplex – Money for Cigarettes & Coffee

Daniel Villarreal – Sunset Cliffs (Intl Anthem) / Guess what….. @intlanthem have done it again.Daniel Villarreal, @jeffparkersound & @annabutterss might have something special on theirs hands. The first single ‘Sunset Cliffs’ from the new album ‘Lados B’ is 🔥🔥🔥My copy is already orderedDillon

Goat – Medicine (Rocket Recordings)

Twilight Sequence – Outline of Nature (Castles in Space)

Eduardo Manso – Cumulonimbus (QTV Selo) / Check this! More magic sonics from Braaaazil! – HiveMarc

Meadow Argus – For The Birds / It exists in the usual Meadow Argus universe of hazy loopy droney warmth, built around organ drones, field recordings/collected sounds, and tape loops/tape manipulation

Remora – Built to Destroy / Aggressive ambient guitar drone, an endless wave of annihilation. Drone on and spread the word!

Jantra – Synthesized Sudan: Astro​-​Nubian Electronic Jaglara Dance Sounds from the Fashaga Underground (Ostinato Records) / Jantra improvises w/synth and drum machines for hours at a time. This mesmerizing release molds digestible four/five-min tracks out of isolated figures; an hour-long Teo Macero assemblage would have been phenomenal – Pat Padua
