Geotic – To Not Now, Nor To Ever, Despair (Basement’s Basement, 2022)

Chris — Mon, 06 Feb 2023 18:46:34 +0000

I like Winter light. I like its lowness, its weakness, its brevity. In its strongest moments it has a brilliance and clarity that Summer can never equal, sharp sunlight cutting through cold and clear skies; at its weakest it hardly introduces itself at all, barely penetrating the clouds to flatly illuminate the world of starkness […]

Andrew Lang – Burnt Shades (Whitelabrecs, 2016)

Solo piano recordings are immensely satisfying to me, but they’re tricky to get right. So many of them have been produced over the years that standing out is an increasingly difficult notion, so when a nice 30 minute record like Burnt Shades comes along it’s tremendously refreshing.

Some beautiful but rather isolating acoustic guitar work in Yadayn's cathartic "Vloed"

Marc Broude – Dead On Arrival (2013)

Chris — Mon, 18 Feb 2013 16:44:30 +0000

Another review request, this time from independent Ambient/Slowcore/Darkwave musician Marc Broude with Dead On Arrival. As you can probably glean from the title, the cover art and the genres that Broude identifies with, you’d be surprised to find any upbeat or jovial music within this 40 minute release, and you’d be right for the most part.
