Dimension Scrolling
"For his first Mondoj release, Finnish musician Olli Aarni journeys to the wide oblique, where shapes are implied by slants of light previously thought impossible, coming from sources dispersed and hidden. The paranoid eye turns them into phantasms: distant pop songs, fields of fair folk spinning vocoded fudge, an exquisite tasting menu, the shiny towers of an inflatable castle protruding from underground. Scientific inquiry reveals spoken word, diatonic harmony, wide stereo fields, spectral she…

Famous Asthma / Tibetan Jazz 666

This singularity started early and extended to their release schedule and the means behind the same. While the band would prove to be wildly prolific throughout their existence, during their nascent days they quickly realized that they could not be contained by any sort of traditional label schedule. …

Ocarina Solo
Stefano Portello is an artist who works with music and ceramics. For years, Stefano has been shaping ceramics to give shape to small ocarinas that he builds and plays himself. Each ocarina is born as a unique piece, becoming a perfectly functioning musical instrument. Its shapes are essential and inspired by nature.
