here you have some great albums that cover a wide range of LOVE!




Arp "In Light
This album really soothes me, mainly because it's got such smooth synths. It's one of the most positive electronic albums I've ever heard.
Get it here.



WZT Hearts - Threads Rope Spell Making Your Bones
This is my favorite noise album of the year. It is so intensely powerful and just wildly overwhelming. I love it and the sonic vortex it creates.
Get it here.




Terje Isungset - Igloo
This album is so beautiful, an ambient icefest. It is another incredibly soothing work that never feels old.
Get it here.



Sufjan Stevens - Enjoy Your Rabbit
This is a lesser known Sufjan Stevens album, but I think it's definitely one of his best. It's noisy but soft and sweet and just makes me happy all around!
Get it here.



Friendsound - Joyride
This album is just such a fun psych fest, mostly focusing on vocal samples and just mainstream psych influences.
Get it here.



Eric Copeland - Hermaphrodite
This album has been getting play after play for me, being whisked away by the inviting sounds of an unsymphony played by eric copeland, a (clearly most contributing) member of black dice. if you like black dice's stuff, then this will be nothing but another fantastic sound frenzy from the impoverished of brooklyn. sink in.
Get it here.



Chromatics - IV
This is a smooth italian delight from two brooklyners, one of which is in glass candy, another fantastic group on the label 'italians do it better', a label for dark smooth soul pop-pushers. this album had its highs and lows turned into mids and mid is very bleak. this bleakness should detract from the possible pleasure the music gives but in this case, the bleakness is the leading light through a world of confusion and lost opportunities that we all know so well. it moves one to tears, and many times to laughter, but never leaves that bleak feeling bleak; it transforms bleak into worlds you've never examined before and that you will surely enjoy. clearly, i felt greatly for this album and think it has and will always have a strong importance in my life. I hope you enjoy it.
Get it here.



DDAA/HNAS - Electrip 7"
This one's just a full-out creepfest. Creepy, however, has never been so enchanting. reminds you of those times you imagine being lost in caves and taken over by little cave gnomes who reveal this amazing new world that lives inside the earth and you find out that they, in fact, created the earth and are using it to get home on our pride. but the band knows even more than that and tugs your vulnerable spots and places bags of oranges in the air. in other words, it's worth spending the 11 minutes.
Get it here.

i start to get into writing longer more elaborate decriptions towards the end of this entry. i enjoyed it.
love,
