Sascha Müller – Untitled Box-Set If you like interesting physical presentation to go along with your interesting music, this is a set for you. Sasch Müller is sharing his music here through vinyl, cassette, floppy disc and CD. It looks amazing, and the generous sampling of the music he offers on his Bandcamp page sounds amazing. Electronic sounds ranging from straight ahead driving techno to more experimental pieces. Very limited availability, so don’t wait.
Moune – The Legacy of the Sun There’s a wonderful one man show on display over this 5-tracks of this reggae EP. Moune is a young French artist who handles all the instruments and vocals here. For a relatively short set of songs, there is much breadth to what’s included – from the mellow groove “La Root” with its melodica and acoustic guitar notes to the heavier vibes of “Fight For Your Rights” and the dubby “Eclypsia;” each track has something unique to offer. The last track is called “The Moune Cult” and by the time I got to it I was ready to join.
Infinite Sustain – instainae This is a fascinating work by Ashley Shomo, who has also released music under the name Cyclopsycho. For this set of songs all the sounds have the same source: Ashley’s (usually heavily manipulated) vocals. The result is a captivating set of what I guess I’ll broadly categorize as electronic music. The titles of most of the songs don’t seem to be actual words; I suspect they are all intended to be a visual representation of how this music was made, creatively using letters of the album title and artist name (with a little manipulation) as a basis, just as infinite sustain is likely used as a production tool to create this music. Regardless, the results are wondrous.
