Two releases from the August 2020 batch of Longform Editions: a meditation on sound by K.Leimer and an Analog Dream of Nadia Struiwigh.
Scanner * Innesti * Cinema Perdu
Scanner’s album is the fruit of an artist making the most of the Lockdown period * ‘Conscious Perception’ explored on Innesti’s double CD * Cinema Perdu translates demarcations in the Dutch landscape into an abstract soundscape.
Ian Vine * Orphax * Ellis Cage
Be sure you are in the right relaxed and undisturbed mood before you start listening to these albums by Ian Vine, Orphax and Ellis Cage, because they present some of the dronest of drone music.
Solitary Hymns * Balkan Post Industrial Music
Two compilations: artists from all over the world present works recorded during lockdown – and a collection of (obscure) post industrial music from the Balkan Region
Echoflex * KMRU * Unjin
Echoflex is a 5-part generative/modular set by David ‘Jamuud’ Muddyman * KMRU (from Nairobi) presents a stunning ambient album * Unjin comes from Seoul but his music sounds as arctic as the album title.
Machinefabriek/Berlinde Deman * Francisco López * Porya Hatami
The interplay of a ‘serpent’ with a church organ and electronics Machinefabriek/Deman, untitled sonic extremes from Francisco López, and a rerelease from an EP by Poryama Hatami with added remixes.
