Drifting patterns bounce around at obtuse angles in the magic hour fielded by Seminar Shadow’s “Luring.” Dueling piano motifs cast shadows on one another, a series of muted starbursts buoyed by an increasing sense of urgency. Seminar Shadow – the duo of Lucie Vítková and Teerapat Parnmongkol – combines emotive, melodic stippling with an undercurrent […]
Frank Meadows made one of my favorite ‘singer-songwriter’ records of 2022 with Dead Weight, and further, contributed so much great music to the world with label he helps run, Dear Life Records.

Listening to the whimsical fantasy of Courtney (Swain of Bent Knee) and Brad’s (Krieger of emergent New England studio hub Big Nice Studio) “Mayonnaise,” it feels easy to fall in love.

As Armbruster readies his fantastic new album, Masses, on Dear Life Records, he brings the same warm spirit to this fantastic Foxy Digitalis mix. Titled “You Walked In On The Ritual,” Armbruster takes an eclectic offering of songs and personal recordings and sculpts them into an engaging exploration. In his own words, “The mix makes […]
Troy, New York’s Armbruster creates a warm sonic sanctuary with his new album, Masses. Using acoustic and electric violins, Armbruster communes with the open spaces of an old church where Masses was recorded. On this first single, “In the First Leaves,” lilting repetitions meditate on the gravity of weightless emotions left to percolate through generations unchecked. Each note […]
Wendy Eisenberg says their new album, Bent Ring, is a meditation on work and love. Many of us have a complicated relationship with both as they push against each other and pull us apart emotionally and physically. Keeping a distance, trying to find the real amongst the many is an exhausting endeavor, but when those moments of serendipity […]
