	If I hug your sweaters will they get their colour back? - Daily misconceptions The first impression you receive from daily misconceptions’ new EP "if I hug your sweaters will they get their colour back?" is kind of tangible. João Santos was pushed away from a more spatial and ethereal sound. The outcome of this new work is further peaceful and secure. A new adventure and a new approach. But remaining itself faithful to a episodic musical construction where we move forward among rhythmic and tuneful phrases, that adjust swiftly and grow between themselves to something bi...

	Clockwork Lamp - table music meeting It's pretty, it's simple,it's almost minimal, it charms and rocks you. No, it is not a musicbox, but it could almost be one. It is just “Clockwork Lamp”, the japanese project Table Music Meeting's EP. Four delicious and sometimes child-like tracks which seem, here and there, to be played by toy instruments. Four experiences where folk is the epicentre of emotional and nostalgic journeys to our deepest childhood memories, making us, even if for short while, close our eyes and smile earnestly...

	Spectrum - Lili Hirasawa One of the most fascinating aspects of the netaudio phenomenon is the infinite margin left for experimentation and the breaking of every rule, taboo and format. The possibility of disobedience to the classic song format, not being concerned with the length of a theme, not being forced unto a chorus for immediate consumption, etc, etc, as said before, the infinite possibilities, are up to each producer to decide… Spectrum is, apparently, a one-track EP...

	Night and the weekend - West Point "Night and the weekend" is, as suggested by its title, an album to be listened to in quiet and comfort. More than the pleasure of listening to it and the aparent simplicity of its tracks, West Point suggests physical comfort to truly enjoy this "Night and the weekend". The slow and patient way in which the various themes evolve (with emphasis on "Whereabouts" and "Ground") warms those that have cuddled up close to West Point's fireplace...

	Homemade Music 1999-2003 - Long Desert Cowboy Once in a while, there is an album with such rawness that it becomes almost irresistible. This doesn’t happen often, but it’s certainly what can be found in this “Handmade Music 1999-2003” EP, by Daniel Catarino, in this case under the alias Long Desert Cowboy. From the raw tape recordings of the opening and closing titles, to the aesthetical beauty of “Sacred Vows of Mother Earth” and the melodic growth of “Poor But Honest”, this album, recorded, according to the author, from th...

	Radio Controlled Scum - Ultra Fuckers Ultra Fuckers are scum. But if there is a thing that Ultra Fuckers have taught me, it’s that not all scum is bad. It’s actually quite the opposite! This scum, led by Kawai Kazuki Langley, has come out of Osaka to show us their latest work. And they did it in the right time. The EP starts with the screaming madness of ‘mars sky’ (madness seems to be a defining trait of Osakan musicians), that gives place to a minute and eighteen seconds of an ethereal harmonica of ‘evening after broke�...

	cancro EP - cancro Cancro is isolation, transmutation, the painful invasion of cellular degradation. The uncertainty and the tension of the maquiavelic and mechanical droning of this EP slowly rots the brain like the unstoppable and violent human demolition that it is. Close to the musical universe of Steve Roachs The Serpent's Lair second disc (the dark one) minus the percussion, Cancro could be the perfect soundtrack to a John Carpenters movie that does not yet exist, fusing the heavy ambient of "Prince of Darkn...

	Lights - the lights dtreaming through the sound "Lights" is a record which existes within self-confrontation. Even though the dominating aesthetics seems to be Post-Rock, different and suttle layers coexist under that front. It lives in confront because, although in an intangible manner, through every track runs a brutal force of tension that agravates with each crescendo, and it never diludes itself on the superficial placidity to where the music drives us...

	Apetite for Deconstruction - Overdose Kunst Overdose Kunst's Apetite for Deconstruction is a record that travels across genres that are caracterized by their ahestetic freedom, without ever feeling the need to relate with one in particular, and always progressing with no compromise. The same way that everybody who's alive today has Adam's gene in them, everybody that voyages through a certain musical path surely has Robert Frip's gene in them, something that is shown in the oppening track "The Night of Mansyuria", vaguely reminiscent of N...

	Divertimento 1 - Kaede Mira There are rare days when the light which the sky feeds us creates doubts about the reality that the eye contemplates, days when time goes by without any trace of memory, days when we are risen above the mere material. The universe of Kaede Mira allows us a glimpse of one of those days, when events arise in a loose manner, deprived of context and nexus, and exactly because of it we are driven by it...

	Sound of an acoustic guitar - oculoss "The innovation of Oculoss isn’t just the mere obvious reference of the abstract concept of Science Fiction, but, in a more subtle manner than that, it is the Space that its captivating sounds claim to grow, in a slow winding way.

	Barge - Heinemann521 To the vastness of electronic music is overlaid the image of a distant music maker, a hermit, at times tormented by his very own schizophrenia. From this is possible to devine IDM's chief brand image: a certain cutting edge attitude which alienates more conservative listeners, and demands of it's followers practise and self-sacrificing discipline. Nevertheless, there are those which oppose the mecanical coldness of these sounds by using confortable blankets of more humane and emotionally warm mu... Downloads: 3,187 Average rating: (0 review)
	MindStreams - C C is a Portuguese Project that at first listen could easily fall into the trap of being categorized as dance music. If C was to be listened to as dance music, it would have to be the music that catalyzes a dance similar to the one of the shaman in his effort to tune in with the spirit of the Earth; a fluid but unpredictable dance, a-syncopated and borderline schizophrenic. If the effect of C has a carnal origin, it's cause is one of absolute mecanicity... Downloads: 611 Average rating: (0 review)
	Toushi Zuhou - Hula Hooper Hula Hooper is a collective formed in August of 2007 and composed by Takeyuki Hakozaki on the instruments and electronics and by Naomile on the vocals and electronics. Naomile is well known in Japan for singing covers in a similar fashion to Nouvelle Vague (eg. The Clash’s “I fought the law”). The band considers impressionism to be an important influence on their music, and that becomes clear instantly on Toushi Zuhou EP because of their rehash of several musical genres...

	2 to 4am - Tsuyoshi Nakamura Tsuyoshi Nakamura moves in a dual world where the softness of velvet colored nostalgic dreams is interrupted by a sound sawing that feeds on that light and imprisions it in a labyrinth of voices, sometimes epic, sometimes soothing. The agressive darkness that embraces us is not so much cold as it is disturbing. More, the psychedelic, sci-fi, disturbance is added through glaciar metalic rhythms and other sound manipulations of static and acid distortion of diverse speed and cadence: from the over...

	60 Days - Noise Concrete Noise isn't just a music genre, and it may not be genre at all. It may be a challenge against the impenetrability of sound itself. Noise Concrete is Junjio Ono's solo project (who is better know as Gang Up On Against's vocalist). In this project he uses voice and day to day sounds recorded from cassette. "60 days" is a trip in six spasms through the heart of an unknown war zone, where we are consumed in a demented symbiotic dance of the acidity and erosion of the human scream with the coldness o...

	[mi078] - Dedxound - Abstraak - Dedxound Dedxoud's latest work revolves between the throbbing low frequencies of a quiet state of being and the anxious feeling of irregular changes. The two pieces that embodie this ambient, thrive in the minimal approach and in the space that an absence of narrative provides. The echoe is the instrument that outlines Abstraak in the same way a rock outlines ripples in a lake. And you are the lake. - Luis Martins Downloads: 480 Average rating: (0 review)

	Aktualisierung - Kouhei Harada «Aktualisierung means 'Update', and is Kouhei Harada exercise into found sounds and glitch fabrications. 5 short pieces with low/hi key notes almost rustling in feedback generators and amplification errors.

	The Pirilampo Magico Project Sessions OST - Puccini Rocks If Rachmaninoff drunk one too many pints with Kevin Shields at Brian Wilson’s beach house, the soundtrack of that party would sound something like this. From the improv-spektrum-industrial «The Das Song» to the Monty Python-esque «Praceta Santo Lenho», Puccini Rocks covers every pop genre (known to man) in 15 minutes. A folk-tronic tour de force where there is still room for «Carta Para o João», a ballad that would make Leonard Cohen blush. Downloads: 1,374 Average rating: (0 review)
	Firstcut EP - Nankotsu Teacher Laptop music must be regarded as both technical advancement and an aesthetic revolution. The phrase "achingly beautiful" was invented for these albums.
