Something carefree and playful yet emotionally rooted, genre-fusing but intimate, almost acoustic – always colourful. Elare André toys with everything from rhythm to structure and melody, with the indie-alternative distinction of MUSIC FOR ALL OCCASIONS.
Avant-Garde
Something boldly different, by design, intention, timeframe and temperament alike – an avant-garde album noting over 200 original works, and an artistic style grounded by creativity, but otherwise bravely elevated by a fearless sense of eclecticism and refusal to adhere to expectations.
From their brand new album Time Machine, Avant-garde indie project Fracktura draws upon an unprecedented fusion of influences, effectively inciting their own sense of creative freedom and direction, for the chaotic yet smooth jazz-industrial dream space that is I Hear The Wind.
Mainly instrumental, then, and a love letter to the employment of adding reverb to sound, this album represents huge trips of introspection and simple melodic and tonal exploration – marking it out as something of a one-off. The fact that it all kind of hangs together as one concept is surprising, but it definitely does.
By the Way of the Devil is flat out weird, but it’s also genius. Pete Murphy has proven once again that his experimental and unapologetic artistry is truly one of a kind.
Grinded Grin hold nothing back and refuse to adhere to expectation or industry standards with this aptly-titled album Reset. Taking their time to craft uniquely ambient soundscapes around the listener, the band offer an original fusion of various musical angles and genres.
