Wonderful news for dark ambient fans! Romania’s own Thy Veils have released a new single, pointing them into a different, somewhat tribal and pulse-filled direction. I look forward to hearing more!

[Music] Jarda Svoboda – K horám
Many thanks to my friends at Indies Scope, perhaps the best indie label in the Czech Republic. I’m proud to support their roster of bands who continue to impress, like Jarda Svoboda, who was best known as the frontman of the bands Otcovy děti and Traband.
[Music] Folque – Fanteguten
Folque were a Norwegian folk-prog band who were active in the early 1970s. According to some comments I’ve read recently, though they didn’t make much of a dent in the American market, they were quite popular in Brazil, of all places.

Vocals are present, but they’re mostly just to emphasize certain parts of the song, or otherwise guide the tracks […]

[Music] LIGHT COORPORATION 64:38 Radio Full Liv(f)e /Fifth Album Coming Soon /RéR Recommended London
LIGHT CORPORATION out of Poland are quickly becoming one of my favorite progressive rock bands.

That they are being released on Chris Cutler’s legendary record label, Recommended, says a lot about the quality of their music.
