Blue-Eyed Hawk – Under The Moon
This is what you should be listening to all day. Blue-Eyed Hawk‘s tasty avant-jazz, female-fronted, and ornamented with a good number of collaborators, is “an album of beauty, diversity and soaring emotion.” And just listening through the first few seconds, you’ll have no problem believing that quote.
Textures are beautiful and varied throughout, and there’s place to improvisation from the band’s members in every song. If you want an almost dreamy jazz-rock fusion album with pretty vocals, trumpets, and cool rhythms, this is the album to get!
Under The Moon comes out through … Read more

Vectorscan will fuel the haters of the metal community because there is just so … Read more
Peculate – The Chain Industry (Collateral Damage, Pt. II)
The music of Peculate has been described as many things. I, however, would like to describe Peculate as restless, colourful, and eclectic.

The rate of production resembles that of Omar Rodriguez-López, or, in other words, it’s a crazy production rate! Colourful and eclectic go side-by-side: the music is varied and in-your-face, hence the “colourful”, and its inspiration is drawn from a very diverse array of genres, and styles, quite literally “eclectic”.
Peculate‘s latest, The Chain … Read more
