NEW ARRIVALS

Khotin -Pace Portal

‘Peace Portal’ is Khotin at his best, as he leans into and slyly comments on our cultural fixation on nostalgia. The inviting nature of Khotin’s productions shine as always, gently making its case as one of the year’s essential releases.

Huerco S. - For Those Of You Who Have Never (And Also Those Who Have)

The most tangible thing about ‘For Those Of You Who Have Never (And Also Those Who Have)‘ is its title. The second album from Huerco S is ambient music in its purest, most unadulterated form, focused purely on tone and atmosphere.

Madteo - Misto Atmosferico E Ad Azione Diretta

Madteo is one of the great eccentric visionaries of electronic music and his new album 'Misto Atmosferico E Ad Azione Diretta' on Unsure is a mind-bending piece of art shifting between focused gritty grooves and the long freeform associative adventures that you haven't heard before, never static, sometimes overwhelming, always on edge.

'Soft Reactions In The Sun' is the debut of Orchid Dealer, via enmossed. The LP is filled with this humidity, manifested compositionally, tonally, and emotively. The material exists in a diffuse focus, staring down a scorching street, finding solace in the shadows of a palm tree over a sidewalk. Clean wooden floors and marijuana wafts through rooms where the lights don’t turn on because the windows are wide open, overexposing the scene.

With these recordings Orchid Dealer helps you smell the ocean, gives you a hint of breeze on your shirtless skin, and is the flip-flop clacking against your heel and the ground. You head over a bridge with your hand acting a visor for your eyes, and a bell jingles from a gated glass convenience store door.

'Soft Reactions In The Sun' feels like you are in the interstitial space of listening, living, and adapting to humidity, and the Sun. Some music exists to inspire growth and change. Here, Orchid Dealer grants you the privilege of pausing and observing, of radically supplanting yourself in the present.” - Words by Nick Klein
