"Whitman's new single runs live guitar through some effects and a mac with beautiful results. There are tactile similarities to some of Jim O'Rourke's recent work, but the way that Whitman allows the quiet waver of strings to congeal into something far more menacing and far less obviously human, is definitely neat."

Gate's "3M" is a 7-inch vinyl single released by New Zealand experimental musician Michael Morley, known for his work with The Dead C, on the German label Toneschacht. This record captures Morley's signature lo-fi, noise-drenched sound, blending distorted guitars, feedback, and abstract structures typical of his solo Gate project from the 1990s.
