PAN releases sound artist Stine Janvin’s latest album Fake Synthetic Music, shares video
Music is a trick of irrationality. Patterns and code identified via contextual acuity in a framework of emotionality; human error.
Stine Janvin’s latest album (and his debut for the venerable PAN label) Fake Synthetic Music is audio designed with a schema of deprograming and of abusing such neural confusions. Reorientation down the pathways of spartan discipline; sensory formatting.

Kurt Vile Bottle It In
Styles: folk rock, alt country
Others: The War on Drugs, Wussy
Kurt Vile has a strangely neutralizing way about him. The casual demeanor and nonchalant delivery of his song lyrics possess the ability to temper the profound to the prosaic, and to elevate the inconsequential to the noteworthy. Through him, crises turn to mere botherations, and annoyances rise to the rank of bona fide gripes. In short, Vile’s perspective maintains a certain equalizing property.

The London-based cellist and producer talks new album on RVNG Intl.
Composer, producer, and cellist Oliver Coates recently released Shelley’s on Zenn-La, his third solo full-length and first on RVNG Intl. The album relies on a peculiar splicing of IDM, distilled pop, and faint folk that manifests a multicolored, amaranthine microcosm.

Dean Blunt & Delroy Edwards collaborate on new album Desert Sessions for L.A. Club Resource
It’s my mom’s birthday, but I’m spending time with Dean Blunt and Delroy Edwards today, because they’ve just dropped a nasty, CHUNKY AF collaborative album outta seemingly nowhere. But it does actually come from somewhere: the 19-track release, titled Desert Sessions, was recorded over a three-month period last year in L.A., and it’s available “everywhere” through Delroy’s own L.A. Club Resource.

SONICA 2018 A report from the 10th anniversary of Slovenia’s ambitious experimental and avant-garde music/arts festival
A report from the 10th anniversary of Slovenia’s ambitious experimental and avant-garde music/arts festival
Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, is a strange place.
Monday: Cankarjev Dom
Empty halls always give off that unintentionally eerie feeling that nobody should belong there. That their purpose is outside the purview of the humans that built them. The more cavernous they are, the more you get this feeling.
