Comment: Kaarel Mihk is an Estonian noisenik who has issued all his 4 issues in 2014. The recent issue is part of discography of Trash Can Dance, a DIY music label from Tallinn, Estonia. Mihk`s 7-track issue used to extend from dull-coloured electro-acoustic and concrete sound blended sonic examples and restrained spaced-out and industrial drenched landscapes to more power electronic jams, straight up pink noise and piercing brown noise torrents and even hirsute guitar-induced noise rock (actually it is rather space rock) appearances. At times he exploits spoken word pieces and samples or something like that – however, those are heavily distorted and mutilated. The result is thought-provoking and upsetting being a refreshing entry into the sparse Estonian noise music scene.
