Foxy Digitalis
It’s been a real hot minute and my apologies for the delay in this installation of The Capsule Garden. Life has been on a wild tear the last two months, and while I still haven’t come close to catching my breath, there’s just been way too much good music in my earholes to keep quiet. […]
Welcome to the final Capsule Garden of 2023! It’s hard to believe I’ve written 42 of these this year, but even though it’s a tremendous amount of work, it’s one of my favorite parts of Foxy Digitalis these days. It will certainly return in 2024. Next week will see our year-end coverage get published. Peter […]
I’ve become such a massive fan of Joanna Mattrey in the last few years, and am fascinated by her approach to improvisation and her principal instrument (viola). There are so many things I hear and feel when listening to her records. Sometimes it’s the open, exploratory spirit she follows; other times, a cathartic, emotive core […]
Some quick news on a couple new editions from Portraits GRM and a short continuation on some thoughts from yesterday’s Patreon episode, and how to navigate the current deluge of new music coming out. Let me know how you approach these things! A real barn burner for the pick of the day, too. Wednesday episodes […]

Full disclosure that one of Notice Recordings‘ early releases was from my project, The North Sea, but watching and listening to the label continue to improve and evolve over the past 13 years has been incredible. Evan Lindorff-Ellery (previously with Travis Bird) has created something special, tapping into a unique strain of improvised and experimental sonic art. […]
Foxy Digitalis has been back for just over two years now, and I find it difficult to get my head around it. Throughout that period, though, the core idea and drive have remained the same, even if the pieces and structures have shifted somewhat. I’m excited the site launched a handful of new columns and […]

There’s a decent chance this will be the final Capsule Garden for the year, but I’m not quite ready to call it and have hopes for one last installment next week. But if this is it, 41 of these columns in the space of a year is pretty incredible if I can pat myself on […]
