Draaier - The Town That Was Murdered This is as strange as the title suggests. Dark, long-form drone with an accompanying text about escape. Almost Silent Hill vibes. The proceeds from the release are going to Glasgow's Refuweegee charity, which I'm sure I've mentioned before.
Crysknife007 - Star Trek TNG Ambient Engine Noise This is so cool. It's 20 minutes of the background engine hum from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Not much more to say than that, is there?
Plains Druid / Lost Trail / Leaaves / Linden Pomeroy - Outdoor Games Third Kind have a really special release here. It's a tape split between four artists, with each diving deep into their respective modes. Plains Druid brings weird electronica, Lost Trail shows us scorched drone, Leaaves is a kind of combination of both (with 'Oulu Analog' a beautiful stand-out) while Linden Pomeroy offers heavily reverbed post-rock guitar. It's heartbreaking, Friday Night Lights on distorted VHS. Further, there's something really cool about the tape itself. It comes with four cards, each with a GPS coordinate, where one can ask for and receive a secret tape with a unique one-minute tape loop. If you get to it first, of course. Gotta catch 'em all! |
