Foxy Digitalis
Once Brenden Norwood’s debut EP, Miss the Point, grabbed me, I just kept listening. To not repeat myself, you can read my review HERE. Norwood put together this fantastic mix that I’ve listened to a few times in the morning, outside before it gets too scorching, and it’s been a wonderful accompaniment. Tracklist: Intersection — Modern BaseballBeach […]
Aquarelle’s new album, Verdant Machine, pushes the boundaries of the aural domains he’s explored in the last 10+ years. Evocative drones and engaging soundscapes are still present, but there’s a sharper edge to the sonic environment. Verdant Machine is inviting, but once Potts pulls us inside, the atmosphere turns visceral and becomes an overwhelming delight. Verdant Machine is OUT NOW on […]
I covered Cerca’s lovely new album, Ash-a-Sha, on Foxy Digitalis Daily recently, and it’s been an album I’ve returned to regularly. It’s resonant, and at times ecstatic, but always beautiful sound world is such a warm, inviting place. Gilded guitar romps give way to textured, understated drones as Cerca fills in all the gaps between them. On this […]
Afghan Music In Exile: Mashhad 2022 is one of the most impactful albums I’ve heard this year. Produced by Michel Gasco and Lachlan R. Dale, it captures the incredible music and talent of classical Afghan artists living in exile. Every layer of the release is striking, but the music itself is utterly transcendent. I can’t stop […]
Fog Net’s Headlands is such a joy to listen to. From its sonic qualities to sequencing and just the general feeling woven into it, I find myself returning to it regularly, especially in the early morning. This mix fits nicely into a small space near the album. This is music they were inspired by and shared with […]
Cynthia Bernard and I have talked about a marine eyes mix for Foxy Digitalis for a while now, but schedules and life and all that’s in between never quite aligned until this summer. Her music has meant a lot to me these last few years, so I am thrilled this has come together. Cynthia has […]
Milan’s Artetetra label has only been on my radar for the last six months or so, but I can’t get enough of the neon, fourth world sounds they’re sending into space. There are so many wild sonic experimentations to dig into, it’s hard to know where to begin (I may suggest today’s release from Mondoriviera, a […]
The new ECHT! record, Sink-Along, covers a lot of ground while slinking through deep-space futurist recesses and riding neon melodic waves. Something is intoxicating about the sharp grooves and dense basslines. Gravity swells as layered electronics spill across this stellar sound world, leaving us anticipating our next move. Sink-Along is out now on Sdban Records. From ECHT!: This […]
Lula Asplund and Kyle Bates’s new album, The Matinee, is something of a marvel to me. It’s a long, winding journey that always feels close and vulnerable. There’s something hypnotic in the shifting soundscapes and the way Asplund and Bates help us navigate through the changing aural spaces. Perhaps most remarkable is that it was mostly […]
