Comment: As the main title alleges this issue is about Moon, the dear satellite of Earth. All the titles of tracks are just numbered, which in turn could freely be a matter of imagination as if describing a detailed preparation to fly and land on there. In connection with the topic I recommend listen to Massimo Ruberti's astounding release Armstrong (2015, Nostress). Given that it is not surprising at all that the issue consists of spacey sounds. However, those sounds are not lame ones but instead of it convey exquisite impulses coming out of those undulating frequencies. Soothing soundscapes are variegated with more abrasive, even white noise-y layers and steely snippets. It could be said the issue arouses the listener to feel some sort of interplanetary alienation. The issue is a part of the discography of Lima, Peru-based imprint Truco Records.
