Road To Duat Comp.

Lovely ambient/downtempo compilation from the fine freakazoids at Pale Noir!

subverting instructions

























Where sleeps the Chicken horse?
What lies ahead of its head?
a bulb needing be planted
A fire to be held aloft
where are the sheep?
Still locked away?
My cat died in a dream
crying out against war
Where is the fleece?
covering slipped discs,
punctured skin; self punctuating, loosely
Whose head is ahead?
lies lie lying late behind useful ilusions?
lift a stone
stick your finger in a hole
walk behind curtains
loosen your belt and drop
let loose
unleash
unfold
break
open
nuisance
nonsense
stand your ground and disobeye
laying moistened leaves on bulging breasts will soften and sooth

A night of serious drinking...

I feel uber-blessed to have taken in an amazing night of ambient/experimental/drone music in Kensington Market last night, featuring the sonic wizardry of William Davison, Joda Clement, the mighty Graham Stewart and headliners Christoph Heeman and Timo Van Luijk's In Camera.

Absolutely FANTASTIC sets by all the musicians involved in the evening!

RQ GUEST MIX 009: HOWSE

"Recent Tri Angle signing Howse is beginning to make a name for himself on the basis of only a couple of EPs of bracing but ambient juke-inspired electronic music. The Providence, Rhode Island producer Nathaniel Oak's Lay Hollow EP - set to be released on June 25 - is busy and exploratory, and combines the frenetic rhythms of footwork with dark ambient textures and a disarmingly interesting approach to sampling the human voice, especially evident in the unsettling VBS.

His mix for us hits upon similar dark zones, featuring a genre-diverse array of tracks that flit between the club and other contexts entirely, that nevertheless maintain throughout a cold sense of distance and distrust..."
