I'm extremely proud to have the privilege of releasing this fine split between what are quickly becoming my two favorite horn-centric projects going on today.
Wasteland Jazz Unit offer up a complete mindfuck of blown out reed-damage scurrying between your ears in a tornado of panning shrieks and rumbles. Joined by Chris Adams on percussion for some of the most intense shit I've had the pleasure from hearing from the hardest working woodwinds in the biz.
Justin Clifford Rhody's ever evolving supergroup (d)(b)(h) (here, Damaged Bachelor Hood) pick up where WJU leave off with an intensely potent cacophony of trumpet, guitars and cymbals which build slowly through thick organic dissonances and searing dynamic washes.
Combining sweeping pastorals with quirky synths and ambient textures, the UK producer's latest sets a new high bar for folktronica. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 7, 2023
Bright electronic squiggles and squelches, manipulated vocals, and aqueous ambient synths make up Reptilian Expo's playful sound-world. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 6, 2023
The 2nd from British-German jazz-rap supergroup Syrup prizes serenity, lacing songs with gentle vibraphone and keys. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 4, 2023
