Tarot by Walter Wegmüller is one of those wonderful, dotty follies of vinyl packaging that transcend normal expectations with bravura wackiness. Released on the Cosmic Couriers label ((Die Kosmischen Kuriere, for those who do Deutsch) in 1973, it hovers near the very peak of my LP Grail list. I’ve never held a copy, never […]
I have a deep love of typography. There’s something rather magical about letterforms, especially of those which aren’t seen so often in our culture, like those of the Glagolitic alphabet, the Georgian and Armenian alphabets, and both Arabic and Persian scripts.
Adrienne Raphel of The Paris Review does a wonderful job articulating her love of the letterform.
Vasilisk were an early noise band out of Japan. This piece comes from around 1990, and was released by the Italian cult experimental label Musica Maxima Magnetica.
After an absolutely hideous two weeks, Willie Mae ‘Big Mama’ Thornton offers some hope.

I discovered Russian/Ukranian band Kauan and their post rock sound yesterday. I’m awe of Sorni Nai…a 52 minute single- song opus, created as a dedication to the infamous Djatlov Pass Incident. Below you can watch a video made for the first seven minutes.
Jonáš Gruska is a composer out of Slovakia who works in the medium of electroacoustic music, only using updated techniques. Lots of glitch, loops, and drones make for some very engaging compositions.
Crash by J.G. Ballard. 1994 trade paperback by Noonday (FS&G). Cover design by Michael Ian Kaye and Melissa Hayden. I had a redneckish college roommate who was way into cars, so I encouraged him to watch Cronenberg’s adaptation of Crash with me, which he did. He was a nice guy. He watched all of it with me and […]
LAWRENCE ENGLISH – Approaching Nothing (Baskaru, 2016) Non della sola costruzione di cattedrali di suono attraverso il trattamento elettronico di drone è fatta l’arte di Lawrence English, ma di una ricerca a tutto tondo degli aspetti percettivi di un universo di impulsi auditivi originati da fonti concrete e catturati in maniera più o meno accidentale.
