"Hollow" (NRR50)
by Bordreuil / Rowden
supported by 4 fans who also own “Raymond Dijkstra & The New Blockaders - Destructieve Verlichting VIII”
Incredible display of control, discipline, and a deep knowledge of the resonant properties of stringed instruments. Virtuosic command of spectral variation, bow pressure, and the infinite distance between the bridge and the fingerboard. Highly recommended for snooty academic french school spectral music fans and rude texture-hungry harsh heads alike.

"Poems E on magnetic tape" (NRR131)
by Rene J Nunez
supported by 4 fans who also own “Raymond Dijkstra & The New Blockaders - Destructieve Verlichting VIII”
I've been pondering this album for a while now, and as with many brilliant musical works there is really no all encompassing bunch of words that will do it justice. Nunez has created something special with Poems E, a sound that is simultaneously warm and intimate yet haunted and alone. A sort of out-of-body experience, as if he started out recording a lo-fi indie, jazz record, but died half way through and his ghost finished up the rest of the recording. More of this, please!

Your Day Will Come
by Chanel Beads
Straddling the threshold between studio performance and digital technique; the NYC artist applies "fake jazz" principles to synthpop.

Rather than describe what this sounds like (a futile task), I will describe how it makes me feel. First it is much like white noise, blocking the world around me. It's just me and whatever I happen to be giving my attention to with no distractions or external worries. Then it is energizing and uplifting. I have more focus and energy. These soundscapes get me in the zone to help me concentrate on whatever I'm doing, whether it be washing dishes or scrolling Facebook. And it sounds damn cool too.
