[Music] Sonologyst & Kshatriy – Time Is The Enemy
The ever-amazing catalog of Attenuation Circuit Records out of Germany continues to expand. Their latest, a collaboration between Sonologyst & Kshatriy, is a wonderful blend of ritualistic music and black ambient. Perfect listening with coffee (black, naturally).

[Music] Various Artists – Nightingales & Canaries, Vol. 1: “Oriental” Women on Record, New York & Istanbul, 1928-55
https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3272306330/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/transparent=true/New York City was home to a vibrant musical scene filled with singers from Anatolia, Istanbul and the region of Roumelia. Christians and Jews joined together in making some rather bawdy music.
This treasure was released by Ian Nagoski’s Canary Records, a label filled with some absolute gems.
[Music] Flying Hórses – Tölt
https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=13310399/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/package=4294530313/transparent=true/
Flying Hórses are one of those bands who give me hope that post-rock will continue to grow, mutate and keep developing wonderful strains in their genre. This Canadian troupe had help from the likes of Nicolas Petrowsky (Godspeed You! Black Emperor) who mixed this album, and Birgir Jón Birgisson of Sigur Rós, who mastered it.

[Music] AMN Reviews: Merzbow / Keiji Haino / Balazs Pandi – An Untroublesome Defencelessness (2016; RareNoiseRecords) — Avant Music News
There is something about the combination of noise-maven Merzbow and drummer extraordinaire Pandi that can do no wrong. They have teamed previously with Mats Gustafsson (2013’s Cuts) as well as the combination of Gustafsson and Thurston Moore (2015’s Cuts of Guilt, Cuts Deeper). This latest effort includes Keiji Haino, whose dark guitar soundscapes have evoked nightmares […]

Françoise Hardy in repose You can labor shoulder to shoulder with someone for days, weeks and years on end, share life’s joys and travails, get into and out of all manner of scrapes (these latter usually initiated by said comrade) and, ultimately, feel that a true rapport has been earned, that you really know who […]

[Music] Piarevaracien – Spadčyna / Heritage

First, a debt of thanks to our friends at Heathen Harvest. Yes, we have some differences politically, religiously and socially, but Paddy has done a sterling job in bringing some amazing music to the forefront of the underground music scene. We wish them continued success.
HH recently reviewed a new release by Belarusian folk-metal band Piarevaracien. I had never heard anything from them until today, and though I normally don’t find much interest in the metal work, folk-metal is too intriguing for me to ignore. You find old Belarusian rhythms, including bagpipe music, mixed with a very thoughtful metal compositions.
There’s quite a lot of this sort of music floating around these days, and I’d say most of it is good. This one is particularly so.
