Finally, another Unknown Rockstar album, Untouched Mind. Hypnotic, dreamy, confrontational, complex - the album travels through many moods and styles. An assemblage of live parts, samples, treatments, field recordings and anything else that can make a complex organic composition like this work.

Release of "Fog" by Starcrusher
Starcrusher have just released their third album, Fog. Something of a different approach to the last two albums. A rich mushy bed of chords and floating melody lines warp and shimmer, both oppressive and hazy.
