Dressel Amorosi : DeathMetha

I’m not sure what’s happening on Dressel Amorosi’s dark and slinky DeathMetha, but I sure as hell like it. Prominent Rickenbacker bass lines, Fender Rhodes, and an array of vintage synths all come together to make the coolest, funkiest soundtrack to a movie you dreamt up on an absinth fever dream. The band is synthesist […]

Staring At The Sun : Catching Up With Moon Glyph Records

You know, I listen to a lot of music. I try my best to keep up with what’s being released, at least the kind of stuff that I find interesting. Granted, I’m not gulping down much top 40, pop, country, hip hop, or otherwise. I’m more of an under the radar kind of listener. And […]

Jerry Cantrell : Brighten

When I think of Jerry Cantrell I think of a little rock and roll dive club in Niles, MI called The White House in the summer of ’92. It was this literal old white house in the outskirts of Niles that had the best cover bands in the Michiana area. There were some bad ones, […]

The War On Drugs : I Don’t Live Here Anymore

Adam Granduciel’s musical career path as The War On Drugs has been a pretty interesting one. Musically starting out in an almost place of experimentation with touches of pop elements on Wagonwheel Blues. His Dylan-esque vocals coalescing with his space-y folk strumming was a hint of great things to come. But with Slave Ambient in […]

Isvisible Isinvisible : Ghosts Of Mann

Simon Pott, aka Isvisible Isinvisible, makes heady and raw electronic music with the modular synthesizer. But what is a lot of the time long improvisations with the circuital beast with most that compose this way, is a more emotional, melodic one with Pott. He seems to wrangle stories and moments from his instrument, and back […]

Burial Grid : Shores Of Quiddity

If you stop by more than once in a while over here then you should know who Burial Grid is. For the newbies, Burial Grid is the electronic musical project of Adam Michael Kozak. Kozak leans into the darkness in his music, giving an unflinching look at both the darkness in the world as well […]

Long Story Short : Matt Lindauer, Us And I, Stuart Cook, Richard Pike

Welcome back kids. It’s another installment of Long Story Short. Here’s where I give a quick synopsis of an album I think is worth your time. It’s Friday, it’s overcast, and the coffee is piping hot. Sit on down and take a load off why don’t you? Matt Lindauer : Moon Shop As a little […]

Papir Return With ‘7’, Out 1/14/22; Listen To the Gorgeous “7.2”

Papir are one of those bands that transcend with each album. Starting out with an impressive run of LPs with the mighty El Paraiso Records in the 2010s, the power trio(which consists of Christoffer Brøchmann Christensen (drums), Nicklas SØRENSEN (guitars, keyboards) and Christian Becher Clausen (bass, keyboards), moved over to Stickman Records in 2017 and […]

Rupert And Ray : Rupert Lally Scores Ray Bradbury

Rupert Lally has proven to be quite adept at translating the literary world into the musical world. Even when he’s just building on an original horror theme(as on albums such as Maniac’s Almanac and The Prospect), Lally engulfs the listener in that world. The best composers do that. But when he’s pulling inspiration from the […]

Proto Droids : Sequential Dreams

Just in time for the October season, Proto Droids(aka Correlations’ Neil Hale) has dropped the 10-track wobbly synth album Sequential Dreams. An album of dreamy, glitchy electronic music to score some late night walkabouts or to just lose yourself for a bit. If you’re familiar with Hale’s Proto Droids project, then you know he’s no […]
