Centripetal Force has released a lot of music in the last few years that has become a mainstay in my headphones. From longtime favorites like Joseph Allred and Jeffrey Alexander to new names like Mohammad Mostafa Heydarian and Upupayāma. While the music is never predictable, label boss Mike Mannix has kept a connective thread tying it all together. This is just a small taste. Dig into the label at their website or via Bandcamp.
(A special mention for Coincidence, a recent album from Laraaji + Agnes Martian + Music For Connection + Hair And Space Museum that I haven’t seen talked about much but has been a constant companion to me in 2024. It’s fantastic.)
