As I mature and fine-tune my musical journey, I seem to gravitate more and more towards the contemporary classical genre. Why is that, and do you feel the same? I think, for me, it’s all about the connection. I want to feel emotion expressed from the composer’s soul through instruments attached to human hands. They feel like an extension of articulations flowing into sound. I also think that electronic music has that capability as well [I’ve recently acquired the Osmose from Expressive E, and let me tell you – it’s entirely something else]. And then, there is, of course, the blend of both where certain frequencies [especially the low end] can’t be generated entirely by organic means. Or when dense atmospheres and textures cloud the landscape with a gorgeous dew. This is how I feel about the latest album from the Melbourne-based composer Callum Mintzis, who first appeared on these pages a few years ago when I premiered his collaboration with Pat Jaffe in the video for V. Murmur. Mintzis is also collaborating with Tilman Robinson, who co-produced this latest album [and yes, I hear a bit of his conjuring touch]. The album is titled "And the Wind was my Dear Friend, Once Again", and across its seven pieces, Mintzis explores the mysteries of life through many philosophical questions posed alongside the release, but it is the music itself that will make you reach deep inside your own existence for the answers you will find.

And the Wind was my Dear Friend, Once Again

TRACK PREMIERE : Callum Mintzis - Once Again

nocturnae is the lead track from the stunning ethereal vocal-infused EP from anita tatlow, featuring collaborations with four eminent ambient artists (be still the earth, cephas azariah, jameson nathan jones, and salt of the sound).

the title translates to 'belonging to the night' and was inspired by the peace that is found in the hours of darkness, and the solace that can be found within.

with this EP, anita wanted to capture both the natural and spiritual elements of the night, which are reflected in the vocals, themes and instrumentation of each song: 
vespers (whispers)
aurora (dawn)
solis (sun)
nocturnae (belonging to the night)
sanctus (sanctuary)

This album is dedicated to Brian Young, known to many of us as Losing Today, who died earlier this year. Brian was a brilliant photographer whose work was used for many album covers. He was a real fan who supported our music, a friend to many in the scene and a lovely guy. He is already missed. 

All proceeds from this album will go directly to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. 

Special thanks to Porya Hatami for his time and the great mastering job.
