Earpollution Update
Earpollution's last major update of the year went live this morning. There's my KMFDM interview as well as the Central Scrutinizer where I natter on about newsy things for a bit and then we do our yearly wrapup. Craig has interviews with Manta Ray and FILMguerrero and we fill out the final column with a new batch of reviews. Minimalist records from me this week: House of Low Culture, Aidan Baker, and Cordell Klier.
Man, those are all good records. Not to toot my own horn, it's just that the pile sometimes vomits up things that you don't expect in sets which have uncanny correlations. I hadn't been expecting to be talking about minimalist drone and deathly quiet ambient records at this time. Not when I'm working on a book. Writing music tends towards the noisy end of the spectrum.
And yet, here I am, thinking fondly about a trio of quiet records.
It's been that sort of year, I guess.
