Vision & Sound: Kenneth James Gibson talks up ‘In The Fields Of Nothing’ on Kompakt

Two years after his first incursion on Kompakt, Kenneth James Gibson returns with ‘In The Fields Of Nothing’ LP that shines a particularly bright light on the Californian musician’s arresting melange of minutely-crafted instrumentals, lucid vision and deeply immersive electronics, bearing in them both the solar radiance and crucial minerality of his Idyllwild home.

Belong: October Language

Twelve years after its original release, Belong’s debut ‘October Language’ gets it first vinyl pressing courtesy of John Elliot’s Spectrum Spools label. The reissue launches the record into a new context, shedding new light on both its predecessors and what came after.

Music Video: Mr. Eff – Midnight Predator

Still working wonders when associated with ’80s tribute films and series such as the acclaimed TV-show ‘Stranger Things’ – as underlined by Michael Stein and Kyle Dixon’s award-winning OST, this multi-hued mix of cosmic keyboard music and sci-fi indebted imagery is at the heart of Charlie Gerszewski’s short film for Mr. Eff’s ‘Midnight Predator’, which we’re glad to present today.

Efdemin: Naïf

Let’s not beat about the bush: 2017 was far from a vintage year for the commercial mix. While all and sundry have been lining up to ring the death knell, 2018 is full of enterprising projects looking to buck the trend. The commercial mix certainly still has a few tricks up its sleeve and it would be a far poorer world without it. Efdemin’s ‘Naïf’ is an incredibly strong argument in its favour.

The Beat Escape

Ahead of the release of The Beat Escape album on Bella Union, the Montreal-based duo serve up a mix stamped with their usual seal of elegance. From Bill Nelson to Pink Industry, via Raze De Soare and Degrees of Freedom; this mix is for sunny days and aimless wanderings in the park.

Losoul: Island Time

It has been over 10 years since Losoul released his former ‘Care’ LP on Playhouse. Despite the decade wait Peter Kremeier is a man who consistently refines his craft and that’s why ‘Island Time’ is not a come back but rather a celebration album that showcases his honed skills and dedication to the love of music.
