And this gem from Appleblim and October as well. A side NY Fizzz is a techy belter, but it's B side dubwise dreamboat Fountains Of Paradise that takes the cake. Priced up like records used to be! Long live Rwd Fwd!

01 A1 - Pev - Edges 12

Lovely to see the Pev and Steevio release on Schmorgasbord back in stock on Rwd Fwd after a chance run in at the pub with Ossia and a box of records, doing bits the Brizzle way. An overlooked release, but definitely stood the test of time. Just listen to this monster: soundcloud.com/schmorgasbor...

Believe me when I say this album is really, really good

Caligo, by Siavash Amini 5 track album

This morning's listening: the captivating, brilliantly fraught and frankly nerve-shredding forthcoming album from @capgrasman.bsky.social -- one of the most interesting artists in the ambient-noise-neo-classical field in Tehran.

@pkirn.bsky.social's UR post on CDM aligns with Louis Digital's framing around his IOMix.

"UR's infrastructure demonstrated music as a mode of mapping social forces in a medium and form that was fundamentally cultural, absolutely social and deadly serious."
