I'm bummed that the JAMC got pushed to 3/22

 

[Nee Lewman]

I’m pretty sure I am getting my copy of Aoife today!

 

[livinsmall]

Been looking forward to this one and it doesn't disappoint. Give it a whirl.

I really dig the solo debut LP by BOLIS PUPUL, Letter to Yu, which is an ode to his late mother. The production is slick and I like the way the Belgium-based producer juxtaposes his Chinese heritage with Western dance beats ,He made a name for himself in 2022 alongside Charlotte Adgiréry's tongue-in-cheek Topical Dancer which made my AOTY year-end list! Check it out!

Kim Gordon’s new album is interesting. It’s reminds me a bit of Low’s last couple albums production wise. The big difference is the dissonance on those albums usually builds to moments where unbridle and haunting beauty burst through the murky glitchy distortion. Those moments are much less present on KG’s The Collective, it’s still a captivating listen but it’s not something I will likely return to often. I am glad it exists.

Finally got to it and I had this bit of your post in mind for much of my listen.

Goodness gracious me, new Lustmord is HUGE.

 

[musicjunkiegreg]

Goodness gracious me, new Lustmord is HUGE.

Listening now and I'm totally locked in. I really need to go back through his discography!

EDIT: Thanks to @jt4527 and @avecigrec for posting about the new  Lustmord album (I didn't realize it was dropping today). Just finished its 8 tracks in its entirety of 120 mins. It was a perfect dark ambient sonic immersion.

I know this is last week's news, but I picked this up yesterday after streaming a couple of songs.
I am also glad it exists, but after about 3 or 4 samey tracks I honestly wish I spent the money elsewhere.

Like, fuck yeah Kim is doing cool shit at 70...but I wish that cool shit had a bit more variation to it, and the coolness of the album quickly degraded into being grating for me. Not sure honestly how long I'm going to hang onto it before selling it. Definitely going to do it some other place than where the store employee ranted and raved about the album when I picked it up.

And I will say that "Bye Bye" sounds like doing a cognitive test over trap beats, so there's that.
