I put in on my headphones when I turned in last night. Not sure how much I actually heard, but it was wonderful to drift off to.
this is banging
Event Horizon reference? SOLD!
Ben Frost – Broken Spectre
Ben Frost has released his soundtrack to the Richard Mosse installation of the same name, currently showing in London at 180 Strand. Dark ambient/field recording-based sounds to accompany a film on the destruction of the Amazon, and first release from Ben Frost in a couple of years.
The new Daniel Avery is incredible, so much better than I was expecting.
Really enjoying this
Feels like a big step up - although I remember liking the last, and perhaps haven’t gone back to it enough to say. Either way, he’s class.

Ah man, didn’t realise Babehoven was 28/10 pick of the week. That’s rad.
Just got round to this and it’s brilliant. Didn’t realise it had both Shabaka and Nubya playing together. Wish it was twice as long!
The new Daniel Avery is really good eh
Yes. Very.
Edrix Puzzle - Coming of the Moon Dogs - LP - Cosmic Jazz
A friend of mine once told me I listen to music with too many flourishes in it, well I fully intend to torture him with this release. Infectious drums, warm bass grooves and striking sax; all with flourishes galore. I listened to it to death and never got bored, I cannot wait for this album to be toured. Fantastic.
Is it… Avery good album?
that’ll be $8 bucks please
I took out three tracks from the weaker second half and enjoyed it immeasurably more.
That first half, though, is outstanding.
David Hanke - Turion - LP - Ambient
The lad from the The Motion Orchestra had a new solo release that I originally missed. Its not my usual thing but I really liked this. Sounds like a depressed Mike Oldfield.
Rahill - Sun Songs - EP - Downtempo Pop
One of the members of Habibi has a new EP out. Every track is excellent, looking forward to a full album.
Have been enjoying this album except for that one line in Rug Busters C/W
If you’re a date-r*pe specialist
which just feels like a big misstep because it’s seemingly used so flippantly.
