"Explorations in Sound, Vol. 4 The Sound of Live Performance - Various
Artists" (feature)
The live sound and music performance is like no other medium for
expression and unpredictability, frequently yielding interesting sonic
results, both on, and off stage. Sound checks, sound failures, the
misassigned patch, unintended playing outcomes, FX overloads /
calibrations and pinnacles of performative exploration can all create
sources for eclectic new material.

"Chance Reconstruction - M. Ostermeier" (review)
M. Ostermeier's piano-based compositions inhabit a similar wistful
sound world to other post-classical artists, but his electronics
provide more of an irregular ambiance for the piano rather than
commenting on the delicate melodies directly. Chance Reconstruction is
the first full-length album from an artist with an eclectic background
in post-rock and independent music in Minneapolis.

"Edward Rizo — Soundscapes I" (review)
Volume One of Edward Rizo's Soundscapes is constructed from smooth and
serene electronics that creates its own sense of place. Deep bass and
sounds mysteriously appearing from nowhere suggest a subaquatic
environment, isolated and reverberant.

"Fragments" (review)
Steve Roberts takes parts of his past, arranging them to create new
pieces, the resulting Fragments essentially remixes of tracks from
three previous Amongst Myselves albums. In many places single musical
sounds get a refresh through re-setting them against field recordings;
their deployment throughout serves to render Fragments a flowing whole.

"Music In Four Movements" (review)
Talvihorros deploys an array of instruments to touch various musical
bases on Music In Four Movements, which dwells on the emotional
dynamic of a suicidal impetus. An ostensibly bleak theme, but it
presages no doom-laden death ambient suite; a more ambiguous tenor
presides, at times hymnal, amid the murk and midden in an evolving
involving suite.

"Out and About" (review)
On Out and About Herion's melding of post-classical sonorities with an
expansive remit issues in a kind of spatial chamber music with
shifting cadences which might be designated 'post-ambient'.
Marzorati’s piano motifs, mixed with Coniglio’s melodica, harmonica,
and treated guitar, all commingle sonorously in Errante’s settings.

"Over Pass" (review)
The latest release on Gears Of Sand from Montreal's Skinwell sits well
in the label's collection of works, in the corner where post-
industrial and ambient consort. Of 50-plus exhibits in GoS’s
exhibition halls, the contents of Over Pass are among the most densely
layered sound sheets hammered out in Delaware or anywhere you care's
foundries.
