Iibiis Rooge, “Hespherides”
Excavacations, “Object Permanence”
Made up of songs taken from various limited cassette releases spanning the past couple of years, Object Permanence is a lengthy and sometimes patience testing collection of songs from a duo who seem to spend as much time trying to decide what on earth they want to be as they do creating music.

Jan-Arne Sohns end of year 2011

Colour Bük, “Our Favorite Fucking Day of the Goddamn Year” tape
These tapes are getting tougher and tougher to approach. Or maybe it’s just Colour Bük in general, a duo of guitar/drone experimental noise nut jobs from NYC who use something called a “vibrator technique” to achieve some of their sounds—a process I’m happy knowing as little about as possible.

Garrincha and the Stolen Elk, “Void”
This release, by long-time collaborators Davy Bui (head of the Weird Forest label) and Matt Kretzmann, was mastered by Graham Lambkin, and as you would expect from a first-rate collaboration of musicians such as this, the level of skill demonstrated on the album is very high.
