I love jj when they use guitar but there's hardly any guitar on the new EP. jj aren't a "guitar band" but it adds no nicely to their sound. I miss it.

Conceived at the heel of Italy’s boot-shaped peninsula in Apulia, Patrick Belaga’s Blutt makes music for the unruly imagination. The title is an old German word for ‘naked’, ‘bare’, but it can also mean ‘blood’ when spelt blut. Take away another letter and it makes ‘butt’. None of these definitions and adaptations were what prompted the classically-trained composer and cellist to name his second album with a word simulating the sound of a punctured artery. That came later.

Blutt’s nine woozy compositions are inspired by a contemplative road trip with a friend, and the mysterious muffled music heard from an unidentified source. It was a combination of jazz and classical music that haunted Belaga’s wanderings through the Byzantine town Gallipoli, and soon infected his dreams of long-gone civilizations. This record is its outcome, where organic instrumentals and electronic production merge into a sound that’s both contemporary and ancient. Samples of mewing incantations and tape hiss sway atop the waltzing thud of piano chords on “Sigh”. Composite layers of Belaga’s cello play in downcast harmony on “Rust”. There’s a wistful sense for the romantic, in the eerie rhythm of a piece like “Momentum”. The quarter tones of an Eastern European and Middle Eastern folk scale probe a profound melancholy via Kai Knight’s violin. Its notes are haunted by a field recording of running water on “Unsoft”, echoes of panpipes and a Jew’s harp on opener “Lilt”.

As a consummate composer and performer known for his work with artists Wu Tsang, boychild, Josh Johnson and Asma Maroof, Belaga’s Blutt is itself marked by flawless collaborations. Vocalist and instrumentalist Jazmin Romero sings and composes the surreal melodies of “Grey Eye”. Multidisciplinary dance artist and producer Riley Watts contributes to the muted, motorik movement of “The Tunnel is a Tower”. Together, the record plays as a stunning soundtrack to the strangeness of sleeping, and the heartbreaking transience of time. Like an intense dream half-remembered, the emotions persist after waking but for the sharp machinations just outside of the mind’s reach.

Gazing At U Through A Smartphone Screen

kolya - Gazing At U Through A Smartphone Screen

"Soulthorns / The Seeker (…)Each of the bramble entities detached itself from the mass and began to plunge their hands into the murky waters all around. The ground shook with the rhythm of their arm movements, creating halos of white embers. Immense plants sprang up from the depths, forming incomprehensible structures. A sort of translucent flow was running through those plants, similar to human veins, giving those structural architecture something mysthical. As passed through the scene, the central mass of light seemed to recede. Ominous lyrical harmonics resonate more clearly through the huge holes surrounding it. As it touched the light, A deep nothingness appeared all around. A deep growing intensifies under the feets until grumbling while everything were still dark.
Appeared then such as a mirror in front, a stream of water. It slowly intensify drop by drop. Suddenly the face of a woman revealing through the water, as if frozen across the centuries. Only her face stood out, slowly revealing the rest of her body was spread out over several meters of intertwined brambles and fir branches, giving an opressive confusion of her real proportion. After a minute as long as a year, her eyes opened, revealing a striking colour. Her gaze darted forward and a root tore through the water with a tremendous roar. The swarm then devoiced and through the torrent of branches an artefact took shape. A dagger of obsidian, ochre black that only the glowing light of those eyes could reveal. Plunging the blade through the water, the woman disappeared in a thousand seconds and with a blink of an eye, blood poured from the hand handling the knife. It only took a second again to see the knife disappearing like ash, flooding the bloody mud of incandescent embers whispering words. This knowledge revealed to be unseekable for any drowsy mind. This unexplored part of the dream remind tormented, like a continuous pyre of memories consuming the roots."

"@hydropsyche is hollowed out club music for the post-anthropocene. The debut album Scree, inspired by ancient history and the vestiges of our own time explores evolving polyrhythmic melodies and composition within a pre-defined tonal structure. 
In the future, our civilisation is detectable as a sediment layer of aluminium. The instruments this music was made on, the speakers it was played on, and the club it was played in will all be the same matter, and the humans that listened to it a layer of carbon beneath."
