OK, Adderall, here’s some room. Here’s PLENTY of room. Need room for a single 34-minute track split over two sides of a cassette tape as “Part 1” and “Part 2”? No problem, homes, we got you there too. Give Me Room Under the Fire of the Sun is pure, unadulterated Adderall Canyonly, adventurous, uncut, unrepentant.

Ariel Pink is about to open up the fuchsia-colored floodgates to his irreverent-yet-revered, mythologized-yet-underexplored recording past. The influential DIY art-pop auteur has announced a new project called Ariel Archives: a series of reissues and retrospective compilations that are meant to shed more light on a period that laid the groundwork for the musician’s success as a pusher of pop-cultural boundaries.

Styles: voices, poetry, wisdom

I‘ve always fantasized about the composition of a symphony that would never actually be performed. Or rather, it would be performed, for there would be an ink-wet score before every instrument’s poise, but the performance would only be anticipated, never accomplished, or accomplished only in its anticipation. The audience might gather to sink into the dark dream-state of a pleated red-velvet horizon. The conductor might quell their chatter with a lift of a baton. Yet whispers might still persist.

Good news, folks: THE DEVIL must be alive and well, because our favorite mysterious blues guitar de-/re-/pro-/anti-constructionist Bill Orcutt is back from whatever absolutely bonkers-ass crossroads he must hang out at, and he’s got a whole new album’s worth of obscenely inhuman shredding talent to show for the trip!

Styles: Leibniz and the saxophone

Resonant Field is apocalyptic. It teems with the whispers of the coming storm, fears of the unknown in the face of unparalleled terror, as the Earth probes ever deeper into how it can rid itself of the disease known as humanity. The saxophone has rarely been used as a conduit by which artists craft a portrait of the coming plagues, but it is Lea Bertucci’s compositional acumen that propels the instrument from a mere tool into a vessel of sheer resonance.

Styles: noise, doom

Domestic abuse and sexual assault fuck with one’s understanding of one’s inside and outside, a dual penetration into body and mind of an outside entity, a rapist, and abuser that shatters the division between our desires and flesh and those of the abuser. We lose the ability to think properly; we act as our abuser wants or wanted us to act; we act as the twitching aftermath of trauma in our brain forces us to act; we lose sense of where we are in relation to the world.

Thom Yorke has suddenly released a Not the News Rmx EP, featuring four versions of “Not the News” off his recent solo album ANIMA. While we in the news department here at Tiny Mix Tapes respect Thom Yorke’s opinions, we very much have to disagree with him on this one — this EP definitely strikes US as news, and we would know about what’s the news and what’s not the news.

Apparently there’s an inclination to associate Joe Powers — a.k.a. Proc Fiskal — with the ongoing grime environments emanating from the UK; but listening to both his last album Insula and the lead single from his upcoming EP, the comparisons are loose at best and desperate on the part of a secretly powerful grime illuminati!

Care packages are one of the best ways to support a loved one in need. When a friend or family member is going through tough times in life, it can be isolating and lonely. Creating a care package for that loved one can bring much-needed comfort.
Alternatively, you can group a bunch of loosies from 2010-2016 and sell them to your fans. That’s what Degrassi actor Drake has done with Care Package, a 17-track compilation of unreleased music that features a song called “Girls Love Beyoncé” and a song that features Beyoncé called “Can I” (one of his best, IMO).
