Dream Autopsy
* 300 copies limited edition * Described as sublime tape music (despite not being released on cassette), Drifting is a transatlantic collaboration between Julia Bjernelind (Amateur Hour), Weston Czerkies (Form Hunter) and Dan Johansson (Sewer Election). A potent trialectic between whom we've never heard a collaboration before, their debut Dream Autopsy certainly sounds like just that; a picking-apart of both manifest and latent dream content in waking sonic life. The "dreaminess" of the album is…

BO
*120 copies limited edition.* "I'm on a jet ski. The river I'm on is dirty. Not like it was clean before, but there was some rain up north and now the mud got in the stream. Bunch of birds are hanging out on the piece of driftwood. The splash of dirty water from jet ski disturbs them from their limbo. They fly away, they squeal with displeasure. This river is all mine. Rain starts pouring. Jet ski is on full speed now, spitting the brown mud water out. Sound of a collapsing engine brings the jet…
Magnet Blues
*100 copies limited edition* "Magnet Blues" presents Zhu Wenbo and Zhu Songjie’s unique and utterly bizarre take on American blues, as if filtered through layered variations of darkness. Throughout the recording, we hear barely audible vocals, minimalist, smart, and subtle guitar work, and the folkish atmosphere of what sounds like distant train activity and dying radios. Instrumentation is notable here: Songjie uses the peculiar Casio EG-5 electric guitar, with a built-in cassette deck, while a…
