Oneohtrix Point Never – Magic Oneohtrix Point Never (Warp, 2020)

Chris — Sun, 08 Nov 2020 11:44:48 +0000

Something I’ve talked about at great length in the past is nostalgia, it’s such a powerful force and point of obsession running across and through music. Perhaps it’s a generational thing, perhaps it’s simply a rose-tinted goggles perspective that is a universal human constant; either way these retrospective views of the world have a frequently […]

Albums of the Decade: Deakin – Sleep Cycle (Domino, 2016)

Chris — Tue, 21 Jan 2020 21:46:19 +0000

So much changes when you commit to some self-reflection, does it not? We all have our own foibles and neuroses that we carry with us through life, but recognising these aspects about ourselves helps enormously with our processing, and acceptance, of them. Things very much came to a head for me about this time last […]

Albums of the Decade: Animal Collective – Here Comes The Indian (Paw Tracks, 2003)

Chris — Thu, 01 Sep 2016 18:55:21 +0000

An Indian Summer, that’s what Americans call unseasonably fine Autumns (or Fall I suppose), a little slice of warm and dry Summer in the golden months, a final spike of life and light before the Winter darkness begins to intrude. I’ve heard parenthood described in not dissimilar terms; having children and grandchildren is supposed to be rejuvenating, […]

Albums of the Decade: Fuck Buttons – Street Horrrsing (All Tomorrow’s Parties, 2008)

Chris — Wed, 02 Mar 2016 19:00:47 +0000

Even in 2016 we still often consider and perceive electronic music in many of its guises to be futuristic and forward leaning in its gaze, its carefully engineered sounds a testament and symbol of Man’s ingenuity and ever increasing sophistication he brings to all aspects of life. Conversely, simple, primal melodies seem to have an […]

[PHYSICS] – Only Forever (Constellation Tatsu, 2015)

Chris — Fri, 20 Feb 2015 18:33:04 +0000

[PHYSICS] is an unusual project and one that, as such, unquestionably feels at home within the confines of Constellation Tatsu’s strange and esoteric roster; having produced synth heavy Chillwave and Vaporwave reminiscent music for the past few years they’ve made their way onto my radar before but it’s not been until Only Forever where I’ve really feel […]

GREYGHOST – Meditations On Mindfulness (Constellation Tatsu, 2014)

Chris — Sat, 22 Nov 2014 17:51:43 +0000

It seems lately I’ve had more of an opportunity than has ever previously been possible to find time to be introspective and internally searching and curious; I imagine most of this has to do with the excessive amounts of free time I’ve had on my hands and my continuing battle with intermittent insomnia, but it […]

Torn Hawk – Let’s Cry And Do Pushups At The Same Time (Mexican Summer, 2014)

Chris — Fri, 17 Oct 2014 16:41:39 +0000

Torn Hawk’s Luke Wyatt appears to have outdone himself once again in his second full length of the year; his previous effort Through Force of Will was one I admired for its unrelenting scale and rather unusual presentation, carving out vast tracts of destroyed synth and crooning guitar lines to support its freedom fighting and anarchic tendencies, […]

Stunning conceptual soundtrack to a curious short film from Jonas Reinhardt, "Ganymede".
