2023

TLCOMP2023 – Something for Everyone. Name your price sounds a lot more mercenary than it did last week. XOTL Dark Dark Blue by Ava Mirzadegan – Cassette, digital. Out 11/3. Accompanied most often by spacious silence and a finger-picked nylon string guitar, Ava Mirzadegan writes quiet songs about longing, letting go, and befriending night skies. MAGNET (EP) by ELLA HUE – WAKE UP! WHERE DO OUR LIMITS BEGIN AND END? WHEN DOES ATTRACTION TRANSFORM INTO REPULSION? WHEN DOES REPULSION TRANSFORM INTO ATTRACTION? I CHOOSE TO AERATE STAGNATION. THERE IS RELIEF HERE. Spider on a Leaf by Chris Root – A hymn book to nature. Daime spirit. Sing sing along.
