I first came across Session Victim – Mattias Reiling & Hauke Freer – with their ‘See You When You Get There’ album on Delusions of Grandeur back in 2014. It knocked me out. Since then, I have continued to watch their understated cool evolve. Their newest offering comes via London’s Night Time Stories and is

My first thought was maybe I should try listening to Halos of Perception on headphones to see if it felt any more intimate than it so obviously does. Like you were closer to the source. It didn’t. Because this collection of sonic sculptures couldn’t be anymore faithful to the importance of shared experience in today’s

Is feeling uneasy more comfortable these days. A more relevant place to inhabit. Like surroundings befitting the everyday news and parade of uncertainties. Burial Grid’s tales of intrigue and mystery set fire to the synapsis like dreams coming true, albeit they may be disturbing, unquiet experiences to relive. Then again I very much like the

Listening back to this album from the dawn of summer 2022 feels like the antidote to the murky grey gathering outside as autumn asserts its cold presence.

It’s almost hard to

Ocean is a treasure of an album. Populated by the calibre of musicianship that people dream of but more than that, and more importantly, the music communicated speaks directly to your soul. Beautifully realised, executed with an abundance of flair, panache and some of the coolest playing around I’m quietly relieved that this sounds just

If music is a cultural provocateur, an agent for change, then Filippo Vicario’s brilliant new release for Release LDN is as electrifying as it is radical. Poke, begins via a series of sensory charges igniting the senses as raw, pounding drums gather pace alongside a compelling and edgy array of fierce keyboard sounds, accompanied by

In a sense you almost expect music like this like, that is to say of such beautiful life-affirming elegance, to accompany sunshine rays beamed down rapidly from heaven up there. Consquently acting as a foil to the Autumn grey outside while bringing the gift of light to the day Posta De Sol provides a most
