Dragon’s Eye Recordings welcomes Alejandro Morse, one of several monikers of the León, México-based musician/producer Edgar Medina. In ‘Aftermath,’ his first release with Dragon’s Eye, Morse navigates the burnt-out terrain of an emotional ruin through use of processed field recordings, pulsing minimalistic noise, and ragged-edged, gauzy, stretched-out drone.

Morse has spent more than a decade shaping quiet ambient landscapes into expressive renderings of personal landmarks. With ‘Aftermath,’ Morse continues on this solitary path, exploring an inner world inhabited by fleeting and eroding memories. An album with a slow burning and intense emotional effect, Aftermath drifts away from Morse’s previous, more romantically-tinged records, leaving behind the hypnotic and minutely crafted artifacts from Liminal and the thickly-layered, neon-drenched vignettes of ‘Hotel Hastings’.

The album offers somber gulps of introspection, quietly sinking down into a warm darkness where clouds of lo-fi hiss and electricity descend upon the loose geography of a broken dream.

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.

Dragon’s Eye Recordings is a digital imprint based in Los Angeles and curated by artist and composer Yann Novak. Emphasizing the elevation of marginalized voices in experimental music, our catalog represents a range of sounds, processes, identities, and practices. Since 2005, we’ve published over 100 works of sound art and experimental music with a focus on ambient, field recording, drone, electroacoustic, and acousmatic music. As an independent label, we work to build community for our artists and listeners searching for somewhere to belong.
