Richard Eigner – When the Days All Tip from Nests and Fly Down Roads (2016)



  • Dark ambient
  • Electro-acoustic 
  • Drone 
  • Acousmatic music 
  • Field recording 
  • Avant-garde 
  • Experimentalism 
  • Musique concrète 
  • Ambient drone

Comment: this 31-minute buildup is of high quality being expressed both in composition and narrative and thereby constituting an intriguing trip for a choosy listener. More profoundly, it is made up of field recordings of a rainy day and eerie electro-acoustic clatter and monochromatic but lively drones slowly and elegantly lurking beneath and swaying atop. The artist exploits field recordings of his own, John Grzinich, Jim Haynes, Yirogis Sakellariou, Eamon Sprod, and Simon Whetham. The issue is a part of the discography of Portugal-based imprint Crònica.

s o u L O f m y S h o E s – Inciviltà occidentale (2016)



  • Slowcore 
  • Singer-songwriter 
  • DIY 
  • Indietronica 
  • Art rock 
  • Experimental pop 
  • Post-rock 
  • Alternative pop/rock 
  • Indie pop/rock

Comment: this handful of tracks is a nice sway between poppy indie and slightly more experimental approach. For instance, Pins And Needles is a straightforward, chiming indie pop example, however, mostly Davide A., a musician from Turin, Italy likes to trudge between slowcore, indie electronica, and restrained post-rock developments. Honestly, the latter element is more likeable and intriguing. Indeed, at the time all the chords are boldly delineated where sheer guitar keys are accompanied by sublime electronic tingling and soothing storytelling thereof resulting in something majestic and epic though it had been done in a restrained way. I like these blissful build-ups being interwoven with stunning longing and beauty (in the first place, listen to such compositions as Aveiro, and Panamerica). By kindred souls there can be drawn parallels upon the likes of Low, The American Analog Set, The Sea And Cake, Archer Prewitt, and Sam Prekop.
