New Noveller coming out and on bandcamp there's space left to enter a discount code. Shouldn't that mean there's one that's currently active out there? I checked Fire Records' FB site and googled around but no cigar. https://novellermusic.bandcamp.com/album/a-pink-sunset-for-no-one I am finding better prices on Amazon.co.uk all the time for a lot of what I buy. For example: the new Noveller is $22.99 with Free Prime Shipping on USA amazon.com (I live in California), but my sales tax puts the total up to $24.70 or so. By contrast, the LP is $19.66, including shipping and without sales tax, from the Amazon.co.uk site. (The UK MP3 download won't work for me, though, but I don't usually use them). Thanks for the heads-up on Noveller! Edited January 16, 2017 by jackshidt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot to choose from; any recommendations? Edited January 16, 2017 by docbronze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still shows as out of stock, but they'll have copies once it's repressed I'd assume. If not sooner. Damn you, Amazon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, on the other hand, paid quite a bit more than the latest Amazon price. So, yeah... Patience is a great virtue, apparently!

Monastic_mike Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) I don't know if this has already been posted in here but there's a record club that sends one LP or one LP and one 7" each month from a library of ambient, drone, techno or house music. I am debating trying it but am a little scared as I detest house music. I'm all in for ambient and drone though.

Eliminator Jr. Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Already got my hands on a copy of William Basinski's new album A Shadow In Time. I'm very much looking forward to spending a lot of time with in the next couple weeks, but after three consecutive listens both intently and somewhat distracted, it seems to be kind of a mixed bag, so far. Side A is, well, perfect, really. A 17-minute slowburner, as bleak as it is mournful and full of richly detailed sonic variety. I'm sensing a prerecorded loop somewhere below the surface, but it hardly gets to the front, if ever. It cerntainly is an ever evolving piece, slowly disintegrating and, eventually, fading, but there's a lot of progression going on in the details, making the title track an instant favorite of his body work. Side B is a somewhat different monster. It starts out as a classic Basinski-loop that inevitably reminds me of his work in The Disintegration Loops. It's crushingly beautiful, with a melancholic fanfare-like feel to it reminiscent to D|P1. Without hyperbole I could listen to this loop on repeat for days. Yet, Basinski planned to do things somewhat differently this time around. Around six minutes in a rather hideous saxophone-sample takes the stage, starting out as pleasing and surprising Badalamenti/Lynch-improvisation, but evolving into an atonal mess, getting louder and more center for ten minutes, before slowly crumbling to dust with the rest of the piece. Surely I'm not set on this opinion, as I have to spend more time with it, but right now I'm pretty much baffled about Basinski's decision to sabotage the piece's melancholy edge and take it down an experimental, almost jazzy path. It's great, kind of, but I'm having a hard time getting over the fact that the loop's sublime beauty is subverted by that shaky saxophone cut. Nonetheless, this is far from a disappointment. As much as Basinski's art is a 'hate it or love it'-affair, it's a very welcome breath of fresh air to hear something genuinely new going on in his music. I think I'll be content with the path the second song takes, since almost all of his work until now is full of his trademark knack for melancholy and beauty. Abrasiveness is an attribute I never would've thought to attach to this record, but I'm more than happy with Basinski adding new words to his dictionary. batman, docbronze, Fungi and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAXXX Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 if you have spotify, you should follow delsin records and listen to their public playlists. not sure how long they've been doing them and there's only 3 so far, but the bands they feature have some phenomenal albums that some people in this thread would appreciate. the downside is that when you really like one of the albums, it may not exist on vinyl and could make you sad. docbronze and radiatorhums 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRHews Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 The last July Skies repress is up now at Caroline True! https://carolinetruerecords.com/products/july-skies-the-english-cold-ltd-300-vinyl-edition-180g-vinyl-download Can't believe all these I've linked and no ones been interested! Granted it's a little more expensive being an import, the music is incredible imo and shouldn't be missed! July Skies was and still is one of my favorite ambient/post-rock projects!
