Helegy
2005 release ** "Here we are, grappling with the twin-needle turntable, the forced-groove vinyl, the ambient feedback, and everything else. The tracks reproduced and mistreated in the eleven excruciating episodes of the mini are this time by AMK. It's only right to recommend the album to fans of the most stripped-down and minimal dark ambient music."

Instruments

For Instruments, the plus two are guitarist David Grubbs and saxophonist Patrick Shiroishi, neither of whom blunt the angle or confound the aim. The tempo? Slow and low. Four tracks, averaging twenty minutes each, the pace never above a comfortable walk. The damage creeps, a forest becomes a mountain, and the faithful move forward. The album is named after Fugazi, in a manner, and "Reel 25" takes after the Shocklee Brothe…
