She’s Analog Released New Track “Narrow Pass”
Italian experimental trio She’s Analog has released “Narrow Pass,” the second single taken from their upcoming album No Longer, Not Yet which will be released on May 30, 2025 via Carton Records and Torto Editions. No Longer, Not Yetis an “instant film” that pretentiously tries to stop movement. The title refers to a zone of transit, in which everything unfolds and blooms.…

Known for his extraordinary guitar skills and ability to expertly blend diverse musical genres, Ari continues to push the boundaries of jazz with each new release.

Mimika Orchestra – Altur Mur DLP (Rika Muzika / Menart)
I had a chance to write about many ethno/world music artists, orchestras, and bands in the past, but no one came even remotely close to the ambiance emitted by the almighty Mimika Orchestra. Those familiar with the unlimited creativity of these highly experienced musicians already know what I am talking about. However, if you’re an…

The Zone – S/T DLP (Studio 3 Recordings)
If you paid close attention to our pages in the last couple of months, you probably noticed some reviews about Studio 3 Recordings releases. Each release differs in style, but they all have a lot in common, and the quality comes first on the mind. No matter if you’re listening to their indie, rock, folk…

Ester Poly – Wet LP (Hummus Records)
Here’s another recent release by Hummus Records, a record label based in La Chaux De Fonds, Switzerland. For those who’re not familiar with the activities of this record label, Hummus Records usually releases experimental artists, but the entire catalog is surprisingly good. I had the privilege to listen and review a decent amount of their…

ParaNoiZ – The Rules Of Free Improvisation CD
It has been a while since I wrote about experimental music on these pages due to some responsibility towards other music genres. A pile of avant-garde releases awaited on the shelf for a couple of months, so finally, the time has come to dedicate a couple of posts to the releases I received from the…

Andi Jackson – Sub Horror CS (Fr33zehead)
Andi Jackson is unquestionably the man with many talents and an impressive working routine. This English musician based in Manchester wastes no time when it comes to writing, composing, recording, and producing music. Besides his involvement in several groups such as Shuck, Lake Of Snakes & Our Man In The Bronze Age, Andi Jackson somehow…

Abattoir & Satori – Megaloschemos Live CS (Unsigned)
At first, I thought this was a split cassette release, but after a while, I realized it is a live collaboration between Abattoir and Satori. This material is not their first collaboration, and previously they released the album version of Megaloschemos and another collaborative cassette named Aether. Abattoir is a side project of Lorenzo Abattoir,…

Púder & Pormeister Trió / Triste Ensemble / Noisesculptor – Unsigned 3-Way Split Series Volume I (Unsigned)
Here’s another interesting experimental release, which is also one of the latest published by the Unsigned, an avant-garde music label from Budapest, Hungary. Just as the vast portion of their previous releases, Unsigned follow some principles by releasing music on cassettes or compact discs. This time, I am dealing with a split cassette release between…

Shanyio – Of The Waters / A Apelor CS
Shanyio came a long way from experimental artist to prolific avant-garde composer/multiinstrumentalist. Perhaps this Romanian artist seem like a prolific musician who releases his recordings on a nearly monthly basis, but Shanyio calculates and simultaneously works on several projects at the time. Therefore, it may appear like his albums and collaborations are popping from every…

Fixateur Externe – A Fekete Gong CS (Unsigned / Blastbeat Worship)
Here’s another interesting experimental recording, recently released by Unsigned and Blastbeat Worship. Like many other avant-garde outlets, Fixateur Externe are strangers to these pages, and I previously had a chance to review a couple of their releases. Fixateur Externe is more of a collective than a project, mainly because it gathers various Hungarian experimental artists…

Chinese Powerbank – Brain Pain! (Polyscope)
Judging by the visual identity of this release and the name of the group, I was quite unsure I will ever enjoy this material. At first, I thought this is some power electronics, harsh noise, or any other similar extreme form of experimental avant-garde music. Thankfully, I was completely wrong about visual appearance, and once…
