Quiet Space — #87 — Josh Mason

Josh Mason is an explorer. His brand of ambient explores personal music — sounds derived from a variety of tools and various processing environments, both analog and digital, that examine themes of family, community, mental health and location.His latest on Florabelle, Coquina Dose is an album of uncommonly intimate gestures and reflections, many of which are inspired by Josh Mason’s lifelong home of Florida—what it means to live there, other people’s perceptions of it, and its unofficial status a “humidity kingdom.”

1/2/3/4 — #96 — Arise, Sleeper!

Apr 22, 2019 | , , |

Sleeper enjoyed huge critical and commercial success in the mid 90s as a part of the Britpop era and return after 21 years with a cracking new album The Modern Age. After disbanding in 1998 and vowing to never return, the band got back together with the intention of performing a few shows, but it became apparent that what they really wanted to do was write new music reflecting who they are now and the world we live in. As well great new releases from Jess DeLuca, Laura Stevenson and Vetchinsky Settings.

Quiet Space — #85 — Folk Songs for Double Bass

Apr 17, 2019 | , |

On his debut album “Folk Songs for Double Bass”, Neal Heppleston takes a selection of popular folk songs with strong lyrical content, stripping them back to the basic melody to create worlds in which the lyrics live through the instrumentation. With contributions from Jim Ghedi, Sharron Krauss and Nick Jonah Davis, “Folk Songs for Double Bass” transposes traditional folk melodies onto the double bass and created soundscapes around them, building different worlds for them to live in.

Rob Snarski is a storyteller, a velvet-voiced troubadour. Rob has toured the globe with The Blackeyed Susans and as a guest vocalist with The Triffids, he returns with a follow up to his debut solo album, Wounded Bird, with Sparrow and Swan. Yarns about Brisbane cab drivers, football players and their protégés and sightings of Robert Mitchum at Mitcham Station are just some of the wistful tales that lie within. Excellent. Plus the clever twisting post-punky pop of Pinch Points, Monteagle’s ethereal and dreamy reworking of a track from his last album and Lisa Caruso’s new single weilds a ’90s garage attitude with elements of surf and 60s flair.
