Fancy cannot cheat
Ten arrangements, dialogues, compositions. Direct, diverse, dating you quietly, never naming the act. They arrive on tape, twisted sided. Shaped by Belgian drummer and sonic wanderer Karen Willems. A mover between scenes. Breaker of frames. Restless …

Ypnos

Des Femmes Disparaissent

Malarial Dream
On Malarial Dream, Alvarius B. drifts out of Cairo with a fevered, mostly instrumental songbook that bends late‑period Sun City Girls melancholy through Middle Eastern modes, psych‑warped folk and the quiet volatility of a hand‑picked Cairo/avant‑jaz…
The Manson Family Sings The Songs Of Charles Manson
Recorded at the infamous Spahn Ranch in 1970, while their leader Charles Manson was facing trial for the murder of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, The Manson Family Sings is a highly disconcerting listen. Beneath the harmonic brilliance and folksy innoce…
