Across Water
There is something special about this moment in time. As the world continues to burn and crumble around us, I am in awe of watching people whom I know, old and new, create music and art that speaks of love, loss, giving, and grief. Across Water represents much more than a few compositions split between two of this generation’s greatest thinkers, but four big hugs from members of my own family. Jessica Ackerley (Honolulu, Hawaii) and Patrick Shiroishi (Los Angeles, California) are household names…
Clouds Without Water
Clouds Without Water emerged from the chance meeting of two ambient experimentalists who played at an electronic music festival as solo artists and discovered a musical affinity. They decided to collaborate long distance during the loneliest months of the pandemic lockdowns, sending tracks to each other without plans or discussion, only wordless questions buried in the music. These are the answers they fashioned. Clouds Without Water bridges the gap between granularity and haze, grit and smoothn…
Sól' Anægphomœh
This album from Chilean dystopian and philosophical muziek act Pyreficativm is intended to be one of the last ritualistic pieces within the chronological amalgam of abstract sounds in Dark Ritual Ambient. The last aberrant orchestration with a much greater vent challenge raised by the use of funeral instruments and ritual artifacts, it has made it a funeral ekstasis that has been deployed towards various edges of the ch'thonic hysterical spheres. "Sól' Anægphomœh" forms a funeral night processio…

Fever Dreams
“Composed during one of London's endless dark and locked down winters, Fever Dreams is a fantastical, speculative take on high density living. From dark, mouldy rooms, subterranean depths, symbiosis and multi-species entanglements, it cloaks itself in the claustrophobia, excitement and despair of living in a metropolis. It is a work which both celebrates and fears the weeds, spores, vermin and grime of London. The dark fantasies, frustrations, and utopian aspirations of its urban survivors. Froz…
Geist II
*300 copies limited edition* Having made his mark on these pages over the last few years with appearances as part of Japan’s cult entities Goat and YPY, Koshiro Hino’s turn last year as Kakuhan took things to a whole other level with an album that felt like some alchemical mix of elements borrowed from Autechre, Photek, Arthur Russell and Mica Levi - a complete stylistic futureshock that worked as well in the club as it did fuelling extended flights of the imagination.
For 2023, Hino takes us i…
