“Calico Sunset” by Former Selves // Calico Sunset (Out Now via Bandcamp)

When it’s late and you’re in that place between being a fully functioning member of society and drifting asleep into another plane - this is what you want to hear. Former Selves have released their “Calico Sunset” tape on Bandcamp, and it’s an ethereal wonder on par with some of the works of Julianna Barwick, Grouper, and Emeralds. Haunting sighs wash over lovely synth drones that crest and crash just out of sight, stirring a sense of dream like wonder. It’s stunning ambient work and you can get it now for a name-your-price fee at Bandcamp. Highly recommended.

Some great little tracks on this new collection of previously unreleased stuff by Whistle Peak. Available for a bargain $5 on Bandcamp. This track is an early favourite, has a distinct Liars influence to it which really works. Check them out.

FACT Mix 379 - Grouper

Liz Harris has put together a sombre and immersive mix called ‘Image of True Death’ for Fact Magazine. A mixture of trad folk, gospel sounds and melodramatic ballads it covers a lot of ground in 35 minutes. One to get lost in.

Dmitry Evgrafov - Pereehali

The wonderfully talented young Russian composer Dmitry Evgrafov (whose first EP I released through my now defunct netlabel) has released a great new album on Bandcamp this week. Pereehali was recorded during the summer of 2012 when Dmitry briefly re-located from his Moscow base to spend some time in the countryside, and this proximity to nature is evident in the gentle intimacy of these solo piano recordings. Much like the artwork, the movements of the soft unhurried motifs evoke the cycle of the seasons in their understated beauty, gently unfurling to create a sense of timelessness and a captivating collection of recordings. Highly recommended listen for fans of modern classical and solo piano.

The Twilight Sad - Tell Me When We’re Having Fun

I don’t know what I want from The Twilight Sad. Most of the time I think they’re at their best with ear-splitting volume and raw aggression, but then they go and turn out a wonderfully restrained little gem like this and I think it might be amazing for them to go more mellow. This is an outtake from the recording of their last album ‘No One Can Ever Know’ which you can download from their Facebook page.
