Aphir

The debut full-length from Aphir is a hugely powerful, densely atmospheric record that presents an intensely personal and emotionally challenging narrative amidst a dichotomous cosmic vista. It is heavy, captivating, dark and beautiful; a work to leaden hearts.

Ryoma Sakoh

Delicate and understated, S.O.S is a record that washes over the listener like the least threatening of ocean waves, removing life’s stresses with its gentle caress and replacing them with unagitated bliss.

Ivory Towers

Listen through headphones, and the debut effort from Ivory Towers has an effect on the senses that, one would imagine, is not dissimilar to the deteriorating grasp of reality experienced whilst adventuring in the more sinister depths of Wonderland; Quinne Rodgers’ layered vocals enabling her to cast a disorientating and unconventionally enchanting spell.

Moth Rah

An intelligently constructed, Bat For Lashes-esque pair of tracks that deliver their listeners to a concealed glade in a druidic forest, engulfed by ancient symbolism under a permanent mystical twilight.

Your Schizophrenia

Whispers of Ink Hearts is a lingering and earnestly communicated sadness: a plaintive release of the oppressive thoughts that persistently scorn and torment from the shadowy corners of a candlelit mind.

Mawn

A patient and gloriously unassuming debut collection, Um’s interesting sounds and entrancing, modestly-delivered vocals combine elegantly to create an absorbing and irresistible temperate ambience.

Lief Hall

Playing like the omniscient soundtrack to a series of momentous events, Transform possesses an effortless grandeur that proves capable of hitting both the cataclysmic and humanistic sweet spots.

Shisd

Ave evokes the energy-sapping humidity that clings clothes to skin before a thunderstorm, taking the listener on a solitary evening walk under ominously darkening skies, troubled by a persistent heaviness that is one part atmospheric pressure, two parts emotional burden.

Seasurfer

Loud, yet strangely smooth, Dive In is home to a high, pneumatic wall of marvellously coloured sound, quickly but fluently vacillating from one mesmeric shade to another.

Vsitor

The debut release from Vsitor impresses a series of scenes exposing love and exploration on an alien world, the mostly barren landscape offering an intriguing, galactic-influenced introspection interspersed with bursts of scientific exhilaration.

Terminus

Souvenir de Futur’s harmonious contrast of speedily skipping beats and dreamy, laid back vocals is suggestive of a journey through the clouds on a toy rocket, one that logic would dictate is highly unsuitable for the rigours of the job, but seems to be flying anyway; the overall effect - a state of slightly fidgety relaxation.

Elza

An intoxicating blend of experimental structures and gothic mystique, Glories is a wonderfully reserved debut effort with the sincerest of hearts.

Golden Fable

Ancient Blue is the impeccably clean and composed soundtrack to flickering memories; a sincere choice of accompaniment to reminiscence of life-shaping journeys and reposeful havens from fond times long passed.
