Issue 63: Inside the Cosmic Underworld of The Orb (Magazine)
It’s been a long ride with the ever-pulsating brain at the centre of the Ultraworld we know as The Orb. Alex Paterson has steered his cosmic vehicle through several decades of sound, so much so that their ineffable mix of influences has become a genre unto itself.
Quattro
Tanz Mein Herz’s latest, Quattro, out via Standard In-Fi, encounters the French collective pushing at the boundaries of folk tinged experimentalism, psych, and drone. Sprawling across two LPs, it’s an absolute burner of throbbing, hypnotic sound and stunning creative interplay, and easily one of the best records we’ve heard in the early months of 2021.

Atto
Superb brand new release by Osvaldo Coluccino, enetirely focused on Acoustics objects. 'On a practical level : I struck or rubbed the objects, I breathed onto them etc. I never left them in peace in their (false) status of amorphous objects, or with their forced function, or with a univocal voice. I provoked them so that the 'new side', springs out from them and resounds. It doesn't matter what category of object it is; what matters is the aesthetic outcome of its 'singing'. Ethic-Aestheti…
