Three and a half years after her debut album, "Ancestral Origins" was released, we welcome the return of Canadian sound sculptor and field recording specialist, Minimal Drone GRL, to Bricolage.

Her new album, "Through A Green Lens", follows further along the storytelling path that was introduced on her debut. This latest audio collage digs deeper into her journey and encapsulates the various places that she has inhabited throughout her life. There's references to the suburbs, cities and the countryside.

Travelling is also a big part of Joanne's life and the sights and sounds of the places she has visited have inspired a stirring whirlwind of affection and memories that are laid out here, among the soundscapes on offer.

When you combine the elements of home life and travelling the result is "Through A Green Lens". Joanne's life through her eyes.

This stunning sophomore album effortlessly weaves together facets of ambient, dream pop, vaporwave and electronica.

The MDG signature sound has always been expansive in nature and encompassing in emotion. "Through A Green Lens" continues that approach but with an evolution on the production side. Every sound has its place along the voyage and every new chapter of her story unfolds like a conversation with an old friend around a campfire.

Warm, rich and brimming with life, this is the perfect album to take you away to another place for an hour. Wherever that place may be.

"We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds, our planet is the mental institution of the universe."


"Quixotic" started out as an under-underground post club event and party sanctum in Northern England. Running from dawn to twilight every second Saturday in various locations with various local guests. Originally the brainchild of sound engineer "General Zero" and graffiti artist "Roos" the project has now developed into an online mixing station where guest curators from far and wide are asked to forge adventures in sound for your listening pleasure.

Give ear.
