American Pleasure Club - i blew on a dandelion and the whole world disappeared - 2017
DT BR Upon hearing the rippling nylon-string cascades that open this album, coloured by the traditions of romantic and blues music, I am dismayed to conclude that not only is Sam Ray a versatile and eclectic composer and producer across a range of electronics-adjacent genres, he is also a strong songwriter and gun guitarist. It doesn't seem right for so much talent to intersect in a single being. I try to console myself with the fact that his singing isn't as effortlessly confident as other areas, but have to admit that his untrained vocal performance has an immediacy that, rather than detract from it, throws the beauty of the melodies into even sharper relief. Bitterly I console myself by listening to this beautiful record a second time through, and imagining that Sam Ray is a terrible dancer.
Sandcastle - Garnet; or, Swan but Not Forgotten (An Occult Romance) - 2018
“To the average layman garnet is the name for a low-priced red gemstone, a gemstone which is cut as small stones fashioned as ‘roses’, as the bohemian garnets were so prominently used in Victorian jewellery; or stones cut with dome-shaped forms as in the so-called ‘carbuncles’. Garnet is, however, a much more important gemstone than this…”

Courtney Farren - Mrs. Darkside - 2018
I thought I fell
I didn't fall
I simply stumbled
I thought I ran
turned out I walked
and I got last place
humbled by the only time I
felt that I'd disappointed everyone but me
cus last place seemed like a funny trophy

DenMother - Now It All Comes - 2018
Inspired by the soft repetitive humming of machines, rain dripping from the eaves trough, infatuation and the broken heart that come with infatuation, warrior drums, and the tingling feeling you get when someone breathes on the back of your neck.
Stav G - "My Sheltered Room" - 2018
Fresh from recently relocating to New York CityStav G is releasing her new single "My Sheltered Room" to coincide with the move. The track offers a scathing attack on the machinations of war and an open desire for dialogue and coexistence amongst people. All this is delivered with her signature mix of venom and melody.

Joe Brown - Post-Youth Depression - 2017
Joe comments "Post-Youth Depression is a retrospective euphoria of the days you can only appreciate when they're gone. It's about friends, living in a shit town and the acceptance of whatevers to come."
VOX LOW - 2018
“There seemed a strange stillness over everything; but as I listened I heard as if from down below in the valley the howling of many wolves. The Count’s eyes gleamed, and he said: ‘Listen to them—the children of the night. What music they make!’”

talons' - After Talons' - 2017
An album about looking back because looking forward is too confusing in such a weird world. Songs about the strange melancholy of mid-30s contentment, a sadness that is only kept from descending into raw despair by having a partner to stare into the darkness with.

Memories Overlooked: A Tribute To The Caretaker
"Memories Overlooked: A Tribute To The Caretaker", is a collaborative effort of over 90 artists, paying tribute to the visionary works of Leyland Kirby -- in particular his Caretaker project, a long-running ambient affair exploring memory, nostalgia, and more recently, the effects of dementia. In proper fashion, this compilation was diagnosed with having early onset dementia, and is mixed and arranged in accordance with the advancement of the disease. Every passing hour, to quote Mr. Kirby in regards to his 'Everywhere At The End Of Time' series, "will reveal new points of progression, loss and disintegration. Progressively falling further and further towards the abyss of complete memory loss and nothingness."
