Tilliander - Expect Resistance/Respect Existence (Dub on Arrival)

NASA has detected extraterrestrial low end frequencies through a fray in the time space continuum. Encouragingly Tilliander & the other alien life forms sound dread and like they're tripping.

Snow Palms - Everything Ascending (Village Green)

A welcome return by Snow Palms with two epic tracks, stylistically opposed but united through drama & drive. Check out the electronically enriched, minimalism meets modern classical, glockenspiel, clarinet & vocal enhanced joys of this glorious EP for Village Green Recordings.

Richard Norris - Abstractions Volume One (Group Mind Records)

In no great hurry but with a clarity of purpose and equipment mastery only an electronic veteran could muster Richard Norris presents a welcome escape hatch to warmer ambient music worlds. Best served immersed but wafting also an option.

Lucas Arruda - Onda Nova (Favourite Recordings)

Midweek musical sunshine with Lucas Arruda as he jumps again into his soulful sedan for Favorite Recordings but manages to slam on the breaks just before driving over an AOR cliff edge. Brazilian boogie that your Mum wouldn't moan about.

A.A. Bondy - Images of Love (Fat Possum Records)

Artist discovery of yesterday was A.A. Bondy & his new song, "Images in Love" in anticipation of his new LP for Fat Possum Records. Get round the abrupt ending by putting it on repeat and check out his back catalogue is my advice.

Pablo Guerrero & Finis Africae - Los Dioses Hablan Por Boca De Los Vecinos (Abstrakce Records)

Pachamama's instrumental voices are layered onto a minimal, ambient bed of field recordings, samples & subtle synths by Finis Africae to provide a perfect bed for the unhurried, sombre yet sensual thoughts of Spanish poet Pablo Guerrero for Abstrakce Records.

Kankyo Ongaku: Japanese Ambient, Environmental & New Age Music 1980-1990 (Light in the Attic)

You could do a lot worse this Sunday than discover that Kankyō Ongaku is Japanese for Ambient, Environmental & New Age music by listening to this wonderful snapshot of the genre selected by Spencer Doran for the aptly named Light In The Attic Records.
