Health & Safety
On Health & Safety, Johan Surrballe Wieth drags his post‑hardcore sensibility into a hushed, modern‑classical fever dream: 25 minutes of grief‑stricken keys, corroded drones and ghost‑violin traces that move like medicated insomnia.
Landlocked
On Landlocked, Mo'ong Pribadi and Sholto Dobie build a clattering, breathing machine‑folk from self‑made pipes, horns and percussive junk, where air compressors and human lungs mingle into an uncanny music of phasing clicks, drones and phantom tunes.

Dried plum music for the grim reaper / gathering tiny traces

When you rub your eyes, you see things you can’t describe
