Dispatches from the Underground // January 2025 Pt. 5

New Music

Moss & Swanke – S/T / I really like this collaboration between @themodernfolk.bsky.social and @johnswanke.bsky.social – lofi longform ambient folk guitar/synth improvisations teetering just on the right side of falling apart. Music you can get lost in – Folk Police Recordings

Laura Masotto – The Spirit of Things Reworks (h/t ‪Lo-Fi Lush)

Monolake – Gravity / A stone cold classic to be rereleased in March. A perfect example of the use of negative space, which I believe is a technique that listeners either get from the start or never really get at all – InlandVampire777

ASC – Tales of Introspection (quiet details)

Old Town Crier – Motion Blur / It’s a lo-fi, alt-country thing. Free download.

fields we found / quiet details –  resolve / relate 01 / These pieces are the product of many durational and deep-listening sessions, unfolding gradually over time and in constant flux, texturally and spatially – made to take your time with and see how your experience shifts across multiple listens.

mattlikestapes – Music for Seattle Airports / what if celebrity airport announcements but funny

Nancy Mounir – Nozhet El Nofous (Holidays Records) (h/t Moving Furniture Records / Orphax / Sietse)

Lucrecia Dalt – cosa rara / New Lucrecia Dalt featuring David Sylvian – ‪tania

Ye Gods – The Arcane & Paranormal Earth / The album is the first installment in a trilogy of thematically connected works that will be unveiled throughout 2025. This ambitious project promises to explore interconnected expressions of a larger concept, building on the foundation established in The Arcane & Paranormal Earth.

Al Wootton – Calvinist Hospitality / Another unsettling gust of industrial dub murk from the master – ‪Nic Brown‬

arborist – Home Burial / Late lunchtime listening – Unspun Heroes

VA – Desert Balm- A Compilation for MusiCares LA Relief Fund (Island House Recordings)

Listening Recommendations

Chuck Johnson – Sun Glories (h/t Nick J)

Allister Thompson – Nowhere Is the Dreamer: Songs from a Gen X Canadian Youth / I did an album of Canadian songs of the 80s/90s by the likes of the Grapes of Wrath, Blue Rodeo, Rheostatics, Rush, etc. It’s fun putting spins on favourites from your youth. My rock star buddy Sean Kelly played hot licks on two songs. Attention, Canucks!

Misc

isohyet – new independent label project dedicated to sharing an eclectic array of electronic sounds and music, ranging from ambient to noise (h/t Wurmpth Furdber)
