venn rain
crepuscular raze c28

"recorded in london during the summer riots of 2011"

jimmy billingham, liner notes to „crepuscular raze“

"the [2011 summer] riots have generated significant ongoing debate among political, social and academic figures about the causes and context in which they happened."

wikipedia, „2011 england riots“

jimmy billingham's last release under his „venn rain“ moniker adds a cultural nuance to this ongoing debate. have the suspicion that he felt like being in the eye of the storm recording his „crepuscular raze“. his trademark foggy drones with guitar feedback and fx and stuff makes you feel like lost in a capsule staggering into the outer realms of your inner space. very far out but hey, it feels so good! and keep in mind, the „real“ world around you is and will always be just plain crazy.

buy this tape and keep sane. full stop.

banana pill

weave c32 

not that i know much about finnland. up there in the north, quite cold, lots of darkness around the year, northern lights, you name it. not that i cared too much about this unknown country. but since i know banana pill's music, which evokes such cosy warmness, sends such gentle flashing light signals to your lost soul, gives you this precious feeling that not all and everything is useless and painful; because sasha and dimitri do such beautiful sound paintings up there, which create fragile ever moving aurorea to your inner screen and touches your soul at regions you had forgotten the very moment you discover santa clause is a hoax, now i know i have to visit finnland. perhaps banana pill's country will inspire me same way. would be nice.

get your prescripted dose of warmness and hope. go and buy this tape.

asphodel - 
aoikigahara, the black sea of trees
 TALsounds & steffi neuhuber - 
barren is

c72

hundreds of suicides and ephemera related and hint giving of their story left behind by the leavers. the album focuses on the sense of loss.sometimes welcoming, giving one a place to be, a place one can dissolve into and ring as one in the earth. a bliss, a meditation on not being, a relief from human natures cruelty and itself forever. but sometimes one can’t shake of the feelings of lost grace, a once green and sunny heart turning into a disintegrating piece of coal with the truths and the lies. these emerge feelings of darkness, despair and a definite isolation against the world. and all these form a deep meditation upon giving your live, returning to the soil in a ceremonial gesture and the expecting a bliss of “not being” within the shades.

Asphodel - Aokigahara (medley) by cosmic winnetou
 

far from her native vienna, austria, steffi neuhuber met natalie chami at an experimental show at collaboraction during a visit to chicago. their friendship blossomed by way of their shared interests in electro-acoustic improvisation, ambient music, and strong feminism in the experimental music scene. "barren is" documents a series of the duo's live sessions, presented here as recorded at chami's home, without overdubs. the musicians sought to build a shared language in their short time together, pieced together from delay trails, long loops, suspended synth tones, and whispered vocalization. neuhuber performed on contrabass recorder. chami sang, played synthesizers, and processed/looped sounds with pedals.
