Steadfast on our Sand
Steadfast on our Sand is a documentary about landscape creation and nature control. A mesmeric film about the islander community and its contradictory habits and traditions.

Night Kaledoscope
Alec Cheer's Night Kaleidescope is an incredible modern techno-based score to an underground psychedelic detective vampire indie drama. So there. There is little history here as this is a new release, but this is simply an amazing modern score to a 2017 film one may never have heard about (directed by Grant McPhee).

Good-Bye Moscow
A great Japanese jazz soundtrack from the late 60s by Toshiro Mayuzumi and Masao Yagi– as full of feeling
and creative inspiration as some of the best French jazz scores of the
New Wave! The tunes here mostly stand out as strong jazz numbers on
their own – although there are a few shorter, more introspective or
scene-setting passages – and although the players and notes are all in
Japanese, we can tell you that the music's mostly in a small combo mode,
with strong solos on tenor, trumpet,…

personal way, placing objects of common use o…
