Music
[Music] Sinikka Langeland – The Rose
Norwegian singer Sinikka Langeland is more proof, as if you need it, that ECM can do little wrong. Kantele music in a jazz idiom. Stunning.
[Music] Syd Barrett: the genius who almost was – a classic profile by Nick Kent
I’ll be the first to admit that I loathed Pink Floyd’s work after The Dark Side Of The Moon, and up until their rather charming final album, The Endless River. Syd Barrett, to many die-hards, was the heart and soul of the band. Nick Kent profiles the man over at The Guardian.
[Music] Various Artists – Kollektive 1
An impressive compilation from a new label out of Tehran, Iran, a place not normally associated with experimental music. What’s more impressive is that this comp covers a mix of local and international talent. Bitrot Records are certainly worth a continued look.
[Music] The Diplomatic Core – Valentine Vivisection – 07012016
New work by my friend Christopher Morley (Mr. The Diplomatic Core himself). Bombastic, interesting rhythms. I’m looking forward to a full album of this.

[Music] New Order – Dreams Never End (Peel Session)
Though Bernie Sumner has handled most of the vocal work over the years for New Order, there’s something pleasantly raw about this Peel Session version sung by Peter Hook.
Next to Ceremony, this is my favorite track by the band.
[Music] Amplidyne Effect – Patternized Movements
Post Global Recordings has been active in the Macedonian electronic/experimental music scene for a number of years. They’ve been releasing works onto Bandcamp, and this release by producer Martin Georgievski (a.k.a. Amplidyne Effect) is the label’s most recent. Icy post-rock mixed with airy electronic tones which keep one engaged in the way one listens to modern contemporary classical music.
[Music] Fred Lorca – Sonic Gringo
Imagine if DAF discovered cumbias in the 1980s with lo-fi equipment, but made up for it with a high, hazy, nearly psychedelic level of energy? Friends, I give you Fred Lorca, a composer originally from Argentina who had been residing in Spain for some years, and is, perhaps, once again residing in the Southern Cone.
This album isn’t imbued with kitschiness like, say, Señor Coconut. Think Yello, as this has a driving, danceable rhythm while maintaining its focus. That doesn’t mean it’s all serious, as there are small, cheeky interludes, and a feeling of a gang-land soundtrack in these rhythms.
[Music/Film] Giving A Baby A Chainsaw – An Art Apart: The Hafler Trio
Giving a baby a chainsaw – An art apart: The Hafler Trio from Carl Abrahamsson on Vimeo.
More amazing news from Carl Abrahamsson:
Andrew McKenzie is a highly renowned British artist frequently associated with sound art and experimental music. With great perseverance and integrity, McKenzie has, since the late 1970s, produced a large body of work, predominantly in performances, records and writings under the name The Hafler Trio. Recently, he has developed a concept called complementary education, also known as “complemation”, which is presented in workshops where the participants work together in making a piece of music based on the previous workshops’ finished piece. In a way, this could be seen as a potentially endless work of art that doesn’t only touch upon the dynamics of sound and music in themselves, but to an equal degree the very process of creation and self development. This perspective of regarding creation as a learning process has become one of McKenzie’s trademarks.
