A nice revision of this early track, adding much greater depth and power to the original, less dynamic mix. City of the Lost continue to create great instrumentals; moody and often aggressive – just what I like to hear!
Unique and often mysteriously intriguing, the sounds of LMTO are captivating in their stark beauty and sonic strength. This album is full of ideas and disparate elements merging into atmospheric bliss. Enthralling!
A gritty and quite vigorous set that captures a fine performance of highly arresting music. These songs possess considerable depth and increased dynamics when played in a live setting – great to hear this show.
Exciting and full of a delightful range of sounds, Stations is a fine addition to the prog-rock genre. The two live tracks are very nicely recorded, and neatly match the impressive studio recordings for both overall scope and polish.
Super album full of many quality tracks, written and performed with more of a 'pop' style than on previous releases. I like the easy sounds and the upbeat attitude to be found here – these songs impress from the first listen.
Coldwave have crafted an impressive sound – one that immediately grabbed my attention the first time I heard 'Buster'. Energy, drama and depth are within each track here, building momentum like a summer storm.
Superb album from Floodlights – could easily list every track as a favourite! These compositions are heavy with melody and storytelling, built on a solid framework of voice, instrument and thoughtful inspiration. They've certainly arrived as an important act with something more than worthwhile to share.
The cascading sounds of this ambient album offer a window to our universe – deeply welcoming and often mysterious, they connect us to what is mostly unknown. A soundtrack for all curious intergalactic visitors.
A solid album of emotional compositions, it's great to finally hear something new from a band that has previously delivered so much of merit. Varied and often uplifting, EF maintain their high standards on this release.
I think this is already my favourite of Oskar's albums, as the inclusion of new instruments adds so much to these melodies. Joy and sadness mix like a perfect pair here, producing many fine, nicely arranged tunes.
A bright beginning from FOOT with these six tracks, mixing gritty stoner rock with with psych/desert sounds. Their compositions and playing intensity creates a great mood, assisted by heavy washes of fuzz.
Sometimes soothing, often stirring, CotL's instrumentals cover a lot of sonic diversity, building momentum with pleasurable ease. Every track on this release delivers something a little different, adding further style and mood to the mix.
There's good energy within these songs, with passages mixing melodic guitars and driving percussion to great effect. Fast and slow shifts also excite by altering the tone in new directions, adding different emotions. Solid stuff.
Unhurried, quiet soundscapes with dynamic texture, these songs possess great character and warmth. A very enjoyable release for those who favour mature instrumental music.
