By inevitable coincidence, a street vendor in Buenos Aires became an instrument of providence, when he compelled attention of Christof Kurzmann, sitting outside a coffeehouse. His merchandise were small books of Hispanic writers, and the chosen one that ended up in the buyer’s pocket some eighteen years ago was a collection of poems by Argentinean poet Alejandra Pizarnik. Her works abound with music and sounds or absence of it, appreciating silence. For Kurzmann, this served as a sufficient reas…

Music for Writers is a wordless collection of pieces meant to accompany thought and inspire another way. It is music made in both stillness and motion, music that listens as much as it speaks. Each track offers a space—open, textured, often slow-moving—where ideas, images, and feelings drift in and out. It's a record I've been thinking about and wanting to make for a long time - my first solo instrumental album. The album was recorded across places—Brooklyn, Berlin, Latvia—using a minimal setup:…
When describing the "Last Shot at Heaven" cover art on the Skullflower Bandcamp page, Matthew Bower highlights the ambiguity of the striking photograph of a civilian casualty during the Yugoslavian schism. "Is it ecstatic[?]" he asks of the woman's expression. This, too, is a question one could reasonably ask of any Skullflower album.
Bower and his many cohorts' body of work is full of lengthy compositions that evoke all manner of emotions. Statement records like "IIIrd Gatekeeper", released a y…
