Scott Lawlor Interview

Scott Lawlor Interview

Given how much I liked The Madness That Lurks Within (with Rebekkah Hillgraves), doing a Scott Lawlor interview only makes sense.

Behind Gate Number One

TNKS: Gate One

Behind gate number one we have a release that defied my understanding of Sucu Music.

Deep Fuss Over Morphine Bandit

Morphine Bandit: Deep Fuss Soundtrack

The deep fuss over Morphine Bandit, or any of Textural Records artists is that they are quite heavily involved in some of the purest ambient music on the internet today.

PeerGynt Lobogris' Window Eye

PeerGynt Lobogris: Window Eye

PeerGynt Loborgis’ Window Eye is the most current release from the exceptionally gifted guitarist from Córdoba, Spain. I recently did a “retro” review of OutWorld III from 2010, but obviously a lot can change in four years, so how does Window Eye compare with his past works?

Stories of the Pterodactyl

Chientaroli Espinal Rave Vitale: Relatos de Terodáctilo

Stories of the Pterodactly (Relatos de Terodáctilo) exist in many cultures. Chientaroli, Espinal, Rave, and Vitale bring us a release that is enchanting and challenging.

Little Smartphone Spiedkiks Interview

I first became aware of SPIEDKIKS last year with the release of “Take Off Your Makeup” on Rec72. I loved everything about the release, except for the final track. After publishing my review, Chris “Kik” Stark contacted me and explained that the last track was an homage to The Beastie Boys. I felt a little stupid — it made perfect sense. My only defense was I hadn’t listened to The Beastie Boys for several (10 or more) years. The Little Smartphone Spiedkiks interview was conducted recently, and offers interesting insights into the duo’s work, Creative Commons licensing, and more.
