“Debut release from The Myrrors side-project Curved Entrances, a heavy free-improv noise/psych trio featuring guitarists Nik Rayne and Connor Gallaher and drummer Grant Beyschau. Born out of after-hours rehearsals soon after Rayne and Beyschau hooked up with Gallaher’s own Tucson project The Night Collectors, this album features the first two improvisations ever laid down by the formation, and despite the relative age of the recordings is hopefully a teaser for more material to come!”
“Formed of vinyl diggers, street musicians and self-taught aficionados, Estrada Orchestra started out as a spontaneous jam band in 2013. Their only intention was to enjoy leisure time and keep an open mind; unknowingly they ended up pioneering the return of jazz-funk in Estonia.”
“Heterodox and digressive musicians, they move freely between the repetition of krautrock and techno, jazz, experimental music and other new musical categories, João Pais Filipe and Julius Gabriel create radio-graphic sounds that inhabits somewhere between the reception and the emission of a signal, like a cosmic telephone exchange.”
“A loose collective making ambient spacerock based around the 5 principal players of guitarists Aidan Baker and Eric Quach and drummers Felipe Salazar, David Dunnett, and Jeremie Mortier.”
“Runa Gaman is an instrumental quartet that combines elements of psychedelia, space rock and post rock, native from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Having published his first EP, entitled “Cepa” (2017) and an LP, “Runa Gaman” (2019), the band raises a trip through senses that range from the most meditative ambient, to riff explosions and heavy mantras.”
“ZONG bring you their explosive debut Self-Titled LP complete with the mind-bending artwork by their very own drummer, Henry Bennett. “Zong” by Zong is a monstrous swirling tidal wave of heavy riffs, pounding drums, weaving bass and guitar duels, intricate inter-dimensional psychedelia and dark mysticism which propels the listener deep into the chasms of their own imagination while also satisfying the cravings of Black Sabbath and Jimi Hendrix fans.”
“This Norwegian fusion quintet features the same instrumental lineup as Mahavishnu Orchestra, so comparisons to John McLaughlin’s legendary ’70s band are probably inevitable. But on the basis of Grand General’s eponymous 2013 Rune Grammofon debut, such comparisons would merely scratch the surface. The bandmembers have the chops to match any fusioneers past or present, but they’re also fond of the relentless rock pummel, undergirding their pyrotechnics with a powerful rhythm section possessing deep reserves of energy.”
“Debut full-length album of instrumental heavy psych/space rock powertrio from Kouvola, Finland. For the fans of Earthless, Hawkwind, Electric Moon, Hidria Spacefolk etc.”
“The debut release of Brazilian trio Psilocibina captivates the audience. This is more than interesting stuff for friends of the “good old school” of 70s Rock, as well as for connoisseurs of experimental sounds. The band skilfully fuses urban sound structures with sounds of the South American vibes, seemingly with the slightest lightness and you’ll never miss the pure joy of music. These musicians know exactly what they are doing, as the balance between playful melodies and omission is ingenious. No wonder it’s hardly noticeable that Psilocibina function completely without singing.”
