Valo Siroutuu
by Sontag Shogun x Lau Nau
supported by 7 fans who also own “Wasted Efforts”
Beautiful intimacy has always been something of Sontag Shogun's music, and this new record, thanks to the collaboration with Lau Nau has taken this further. It is possible that the use of lyric and vocals becoming more prominent has encouraged this sense of closeness, but simultaneously the lushous textural layering has continued to remain at the core. As such the record strikes a perfect balance of staying true to Sontag Shogun's previous form whilst also charting new territory.

To Live & Die In Space & Time
by Lynn Avery & Cole Pulice
supported by 7 fans who also own “Wasted Efforts”
4 peaceful jazz vignettes. Belt of Venus is aquamarine, with a slow, tidal energy as dignified as the sea. The aptly named plantwood is budding, emergent as flowers on dewy moss in the forest. Stained Glass Sauna has a smoky, mountain resonance, while the Sunken Cabin emerges slowly from dust-mote stillness to tortured but deliberating peaks. The whole thing is bursting with character.
