No more back alley handoffs with meth-addled Midwest DJs – now you can get a legit, clean copy of Aphex Twin’s classic Selected Ambient Works II above ground in a legal marketplace. I don’t know who’s brilliant fucking idea it was to repress this, but it should have happened about ten years ago, at least. [...]
This Digitalis shit disappears so fast, I feel like I have to post it as soon as I hear about it. No time to explain, get in the car and come with me! Or just go to digitalisindustries.com. Spiritual Church Movement by Perispirit
Whoa, Mexican Summer is bringing the groundbreaking shit lately. Lilacs & Champagne is the producing duo of Alex Hall and Emil Amos (both also of Grails), and this is their first record. As you’d expect, they’re plowing through the fertile grounds of psychedelia here, but maybe as somewhat of a surprise, they’re doing so with [...]
The fine folks at JUKBOXR continue their perfect streak of gorgeous electronic dreampop with this new release by Fort Lauderdale’s Arrange. “Five Years With The Sun” is warm, personal, and lush. It should easily appeal to fans of Washed Out, Active Child, etc. Big recommendation. We couldn’t be more excited about what this label is [...]
2nd pressing of this inspired split between like-minded zone seekers Rene Hell and Pete Swanson. Get lifted. This one is available in Europe from Shelter Press at shelter-press.com.
Speaking of Pyramids, Hydra Head has finally pressed up a vinyl version of their self-titled album that came out way back in 2008. Remember 2008? Well this is what it sounded like. Pick up a pre-order on clear, blue or black at bluecollardistro.com.
Hopefully you managed to pick up a copy of this on vinyl – if not, Insound.com has them in stock currently. And if you just hate the way vinyl sounds so full and rich (ugh, I know right?) then you can also get a copy on cassette. This collaborative LP is absolutely stunning, as you [...]
Well, Southern Lord is releasing tapes now. Or so it would appear as the newest (and one of my favorite) albums from the much maligned Wolves in the Throne Room is now available on compact cassette. This also features the Malevolent Grain EP (which I thought was terrible) so you are getting plenty of bang [...]
A new EP from Nicolas Jaar, now working alongside bassist Dave Harrington as Darkside. All the flourishes of Monsieur Jaar’s charming and restrained production are fully intact. This is just a ten-inch, but ten-inches from this man beats 12-inches from any other (no innuendo intended). Already sold out at boomkat.com but you can pick it up now [...]
The first Digitalis release of the new year and the first new material we get to hear from Grant Evans’ amazing Nova Scotian Arms project in 2012. Prepare yourself for total drone immersion; purchase from either digitalisindustries.com or boomkat.com. UPDATE: Now being distributed by beta.forcedexposure.com.
