Spite Cathedral returns with Unforgiven Thoughts, an album in which the artist delves into an experimental, dark, and deeply atmospheric sonic journey, fusing industrial, noise, drone, and post-apocalyptic textures to create a unique and disturbing soundscape. From the very first track, the album establishes an unsettling tone. Harsh, mechanical industrial sounds clash with ethereal and distorted melodies, creating a sense of controlled chaos. Spite Cathedral demonstrates a masterful command of …

Mutualism is the pure essence of collaboration, an exchange that not only projects but also guarantees the growth of two individuals. In this bond, there is no competition; instead, a natural equilibrium emerges where both parties strengthen and complement each other. It is not about losing one's identity, but about enhancing it, allowing individualities to shine even brighter when united. It is a reminder that when two forces ally, the result is always greater than the sum of their parts. Mutua…

“Some of it sounds so pure and clear and I am picturing him huddled around all that gear, simply magical.

Leaping from a twig, a spider lays a strand of silk in the open air. Intuitively, it traces a design, reactive to its environment but guided by something deeper. As it works towards the center, something resembling a home emerges, intricate in its design and inevitably imperfect. The web comes to represent the creature’s creative response to the world and its needs within it. Artmaking and music- making emerge from a similar nerve: through the impulsive drive to create a space for one’s self, cr…

Music To Varnish Owls By. Does Geoff Bastow have a claim for the best album title of all time? It's certainly up there. It's also one of the hardest to find library funk records. But don't let the eye-catching name fool you into thinking this isn't serious business. As a key member of Giorgio Moroder's team, the legendary Geoff Bastow shouldn't need any introduction. You'll be familiar with his singular brilliance as the brains behind the much-sampled boogie/disco classics "You Don't Like My Mus…

The light bends, tweaked at the edges. Twisted by rhythms that never quite resolve. Written, recorded and produced by Barley in Yorkshire in early 2024, Lux picks up where 2023 LP Marionette leaves off,…

*2025 stock* "Hanging by a Fan Over Wet Cement is the music of listening after listening, when water runs relative to the sound of your own footsteps, and you lean over the resonating chamber of a trashcan like it’s a campfire, then fill it with wheezy laughter. Only, the steel mesh of Hair Clinic/Max Nordile’s field microphone is all mangled and bludgeoned, and the field extends into his home garage. The same contact-foraging quality of attention goes into the beginner’s brain improvisations, w…
