the Kofu collection conjure up haunting images of an old world using modern collage technics. Meitei (meaning intoxicated) has produced some of the most beautiful music I have heard in recent years. Many thanks. chrisalletson
It's getting near impossible to pick favourites from Jason Corder's expansive catalogue,( there are SO many gems!) - but this offering approaches the finest moments of our 20th+ century avantgarde- more akin to works like Part, Ligeti, Reich- we came up with the phrase "Chamber Ambient" just for this work - ( !! ) -a sonic experience not to be missed. -ss/tm/am editions vaché
This compilation captures the current sound of Thai Luk Thung, where traditional melodies are powered by trap & dance beats. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 29, 2019
I did not find this the easiest or most immediate album to get into on first listen, but on repeated listens it is really growing on me. Moody Iranian experimental ambient with scraping/droning strings, field recordings, noise, hypnotic folky vocals, and a slightly chaotic, dislocated vibe all of its own. Unusual, haunting, and recommended if you have time to dig past the surface. Very rewarding. David Smith
