Cosmic Cruelty Becomes a Peerless Depiction of Grief on L’Rain’s Self-Titled Mixtape

I played a mix of all my favorite albums from this year at a party a few weeks ago, and L’Rain ended up being the crowd favorite. Something about the swirling and looping of beats and drums and vocals grabs your attention without you even realizing. This record has been called experimental, though in all honesty there couldn’t be a more perfect representation of rhythm … Continue reading Cosmic Cruelty Becomes a Peerless Depiction of Grief on L’Rain’s Self-Titled Mixtape

Chopped up beats and beeps are the core of Benjamin Munoz’s early 2017 track, “Melle,” which proved to only be a promotional single leading into his June EP, Fear and Its Variants. This did not appear on that record, but “Melle” still stands out as some of Munoz’s most enlightened work.  Best Songs of 2017 7. Benjamin Munoz – Melle Benjamin Munoz | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram … Continue reading

Recently Daniel Huffman aka New Fumes dropped his newest LP, Teeming 2, and you can expect as much noise as is found on the single, “Rioter’s Milk.” Wayne Coyne lends wavering vocals to the fuzz-laden track as the record’s only feature; you can hear Huffman’s low voice on most every other track, though serving as only a small part of the overall odyssey of Teeming 2.  Source: … Continue reading

sngalbums: Abandon the idea of discomfort. Minais B, also known as Villads Klint, is a Copenhagen-based artist whose new release will not allow you space for such a concept. As The River At Its Source is a sixteen minute long ambient drone manifesto, narrated by a woman with an alarmingly steady tone despite the chaos surrounding her. This record is confrontational, not unlike the musings of … Continue reading

I thought the best use of the word “Faraday” came in Everything Everything’s 2010 single, “MY KZ UR BF,” but Christian Carrière has provided stiff competition. This ambient noise track only gets better as you listen, ending with a magnificent chorus of hums. Field of Containment is Carrière’s new EP, and it is out now.  Source: Bandcamp Continue reading
