	Marco Lucchi - Litany (Quattro Studi) [wh116] - Marco Lucchi Described by Marco Lucchi as "just a suite of studies upon an arpeggio for piano" these works convey a pensive mood through interpretation by various instruments such as a mellotron and even a crackling record. 01 Study 1 (electric piano, electric violin & mellotron) 02 Study 1 (electric piano, electric violin, mellotron & bells) 03 Study 2 (piano & vinyl) 04 Study 3 (piano & drone - reverse) 05 Study 4 (electric piano, electric violin & mellotron) 06 Study 4 (electric piano, electric violin, me...

	Mika Björklund - Nocturne [wh054] - Mika Björklund Finnish electronica artist Mika Björklund makes his debut on Webbed Hand with a long-form ambient composition inspired by other long-form albums on this label, such as the Rain series. This excellent track is both engaging and relaxing. About the recording: "As the name implies the music is night music. It was mostly made during night and I think the mood is best for late-night listening. I've tried to make it encompass the feelings and moods I feel when I stay up late to think and listen to mu...

	Vincent Bergeron - Casse-tete de l'Existence [wh056] - Vincent Bergeron From the artist: "For this concept album, the idea was to make new songwriting. All structures were influenced by rock and also by experimental techno and prepared improvisation (which i still don't really enjoy most of the time though). There's choruses, verses, bridges, introductions and endings. They don't appear in the order, all the times, but they are there. The vocals and the lyrics came after...

	Various - To Ancient Noise: A Webbed Hand Compilation [wh024] "To Ancient Noise" is a compilation of manipulated environmental sounds. Whether field recordings, found sounds, radio snippets, or other odd recorded artifacts of audio, these elements are worked by sound artists in interesting and often startling ways. In some cases the sounds may not be processed much at all, but are rather selected for their rhythmic virtues. In other cases, sounds have been layered and heavily effected into lush and alien soundscapes, dark and mysterious...

	Saluki Regicide - See Things [wh083] - C.P. McDill This is the first long-form recording by Saluki Regicide outside of the Rain project. Using as a foundation a long-form composition by Akashic Crow's Nest, Saluki Regicide adds layers of characteristic embellishments: obscure samples, bizarre rhythmic loops, peculiar washes of sound, snippets of string melody, all adding up to an interesting meeting of styles. Saluki Regicide is a recording project of C.P... Keywords: long-form; experimental; musique concrete; ambient; soundscape; generative Downloads: 2,252 Average rating: (2 reviews)
	Pavonine - Pavonine [wh118] - Pavonine Subtle textures of ambient drone full of nuance and mystery.

Saluki Regicide continues to surprise and delight listeners with strange visionary abstractions in sound.
