\n

A strong batch of recent reviews at Psychotropic Wonderland<\/a> covers experimental rock, drone, ambient, electroacoustic music, and contemporary composition.<\/p>\n

Curbside Lambsear \u2013<\/a> Put Rings On All My Fingers To Weigh Down My Hands<\/a><\/em> (Scenic Route) \u2014 Pared-down rock deconstruction combining viola, synths, percussion, sound collage, noise, and post-punk structures.<\/p>\n

Huerta Ensamble \u2013<\/a> S\u221eS<\/a><\/em> (Elevator Bath) \u2014 Concepci\u00f3n and Daniela Huerta build two long-form pieces from improvisation, dark drones, processed strings, electronics, and dense sound design.<\/p>\n

Maxime Denuc \u2013<\/a> Club Imperiale<\/a><\/em> (light-years) \u2014 Denuc uses a custom Max\/MSP sequencer to control pipe organ, connecting baroque sonorities, ambient music, and the harmonic language of early-1990s trance.<\/p>\n

Andrew Chalk \u2013<\/a> Mystical Obscurant<\/a><\/em> (Students of Decay) \u2014 Quiet guitar, keyboard, environmental sound, and loop-based pieces built around slowly evolving melodies and drones.<\/p>\n

Carmen Villain \u2013<\/a> Memoria<\/a><\/em> (Smalltown Supersound) \u2014 A highly abstract form of spectral dub combining ambient textures, industrial pulses, flutes, electronics, and radically reduced rhythms.<\/p>\n

Etelin \u2013<\/a> The Chair and the Faucet<\/a><\/em> (Pentiments) \u2014 Alex Cobb works almost entirely with Serge modular synthesizer on slowly shifting minimal drones, oscillations, feedback, and overtones.<\/p>\n

Dean McPhee \u2013<\/a> Northern Earth<\/a><\/em> (Bass Ritual) \u2014 McPhee expands his real-time guitar minimalism with bass and percussion, drawing on dub, desert blues, psychedelia, and slow-moving improvisation.<\/p>\n

Windy & Carl Meet Optigan Conservatory<\/a> (Kranky) \u2014 Drone-based improvisations combine Windy & Carl\u2019s layered guitars with synthesizer, harmonium, Optigan textures, and later overdubs.<\/p>\n

Klara Lewis \u2013<\/a> Opening<\/a><\/em> (Editions Mego) \u2014 Lewis manipulates orchestral samples, loops, field recordings, noise, and distortion into short electronic and electroacoustic pieces.<\/p>\n

Sarah Davachi \u2013<\/a> The Will of Tongues<\/a><\/em> (Late Music) \u2014 A large-scale collection spanning solo pipe organ, choral writing, microtonal ensembles, and chamber music, with an emphasis on tuning, timbre, duration, and harmonic structure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
