Live At Vidro '77

EP's 1988-1991
On "EP’s 1988–1991 and rare tracks", My Bloody Valentine crystallise the leap from scuzzy indie to full‑blown shoegaze alchemy: the Creation‑era EPs and stray cuts where overdriven pop songs dissolve into colour‑smeared noise, vapor‑thin vocals and t…
Music To Watch Seeds Grow By 008: Salamanda (Basil)
On Music To Watch Seeds Grow By 008: Salamanda (Basil), Salamanda miniaturise their left‑field ambient world into a single pot on a windowsill: a slow, luminous day‑in‑the‑life of a basil plant where light, water and time turn into gentle pulses, dri…
