The trouble starts with the voice. Chadburn reads the text aloud as narrator, a string quartet answers, and over the course of the record his tone curdles from mild to something closer to menace. The Quietus, naming it Album of the Week, reached for Michel Chion's idea of the acousmêtre, the unseen voice whose authority you can't locate. The source is innocent enough: John Playford's seventeenth-century dance manual, published in 1651. Chadburn treats it as a launching point for a half-invented radio play that drifts through the medieval dancing plagues, an ice sheet rendered as droning cello and viola, and the 1992 free party on Castlemorton Common, seen from a car on a distant road while plucked violins thicken like approaching sound systems. Then comes "Manual Transmission," the strings swelling while the narrator turns hostile, and you realise the party is over and someone has been pulled over. The piece began as a Phaedra Ensemble commission and a 2023 performance at Cafe Oto; Jamie Hamilton mixed it. John Playford 1651 年在倫敦出版《The English Dancing Master》，是給人照著跳的鄉村舞教本，一頁一支舞，寫的是誰往左、誰轉身。Chadburn 拿它當底本，改寫成一部半真半假的廣播劇：他自己念旁白，Phaedra Ensemble 的弦樂四重奏在旁邊接話。

"Reel 43" takes the main riff of the Stooges' "Down on the Street" and simply refuses to let it go, looping it under a bed of drones until the song stops being rock and becomes something closer to weather. That is Water Damage's method: the Austin collective, ten-plus players including Thor Harris, formerly of Swans, on gongs, doesn't write songs; it fills numbered reels until the tape runs out. Stuart Berman, giving it Bandcamp Daily's Album of the Day, heard Boredoms in the opener's stomp. 奧斯汀十多個人的集體，不寫歌，只錄編號的盤帶，錄到帶子用完為止。名單裡有前 Swans 成員 Thor Harris（敲鑼，也砸鑼）、Spray Paint 的 George Dishner、Expensive Shit 的 Piwonka 兄弟，還有用 more eaze 名義發碟的 Mari Maurice Rubio 拉中提琴。〈Reel 43〉把 The Stooges 的〈Down on the Street〉做成樂隊現場 remix，主 riff 一直轉，底下鋪著不停的持續音。Bandcamp Daily 選為當日專輯。〈Reel 38〉的沙鈴我很喜歡。

The closing song, "The Taming of the Horses," comes out of Jacob Bronowski's 1973 television series The Ascent of Man, which Mark McCambridge says marked him. That is the kind of songwriter he is: the Belfast musician's fourth album as Arborist, the first he has produced himself, also carries a tribute to the late poet Ciaran Carson and a song that reads the parable of the prodigal son as a letter to his own child. The Errigal Ensemble's strings turn up on "Empty Handed." Americana UK singled out "Bye Bye Johnny Cash," which ends on a saxophone solo. Arborist 是貝爾法斯特的詞曲作者 Mark McCambridge。這是第四張，也是第一張由他自己製作的 Arborist 專輯，大半是深夜在家裡的工作室錄的。〈I've Been A Flaneur〉寫給已故詩人 Ciaran Carson；〈Go Kill The Fatted Calf〉借浪子回頭的寓言寫自己的兒子；收尾的〈The Taming of the Horses〉來自 1973 年 Jacob Bronowski 主持的紀錄片《The Ascent of Man》。Americana UK 給了 8 分，最推〈Bye Bye Johnny Cash〉：穿 Johnny Cash T 恤的男人一次次回到同一家夜店，最後是一段薩克斯。

The Tokyo band's first record drew comparisons to Nirvana and Weezer. Reviewing this second one for Mikiki, Yuji Tayama hears those reference points receding, replaced by a psychedelia built from nostalgia and introspection; he flags "Lumina" as the hard-charging one. Two songs the band has played live for years finally made it onto tape. 東京樂隊 pavilion 的第二張，距《Moonsault》大約三年。現場演了好幾年的〈ユリシス〉與〈ルーシッドの空言〉這次重錄進來。Mikiki 的田山雄士聽出前作的 Nirvana、Weezer 影子退後了，換成懷舊和內省疊出來的迷幻；他點名〈Lumina〉硬朗、往前衝。巡演今天從大阪開跑。

One track is titled "Corporate Tax as a Percentage of Total Federal Revenue in the US, 1952, 1975, and 1998," which tells you something about the reading list behind this nonet record: Naomi Klein, George Saunders, Angela Davis, Mark Fisher, each lending a piece its title. The band is formidable, with Mary Halvorson on guitar, Ingrid Laubrock on saxophones, David Virelles on piano and Ches Smith on drums, but the instrument that catches the ear is DoYeon Kim's 25-string gayageum, threading through the horns. Recorded over two days in Brooklyn in January. 標題是 Fredric Jameson 與 Mark Fisher 那句話的前半句。九重奏的名單很長：Webber 自己吹薩克斯和長笛，Ingrid Laubrock、Yuma Uesaka 管簧樂，Mary Halvorson 吉他，David Virelles 鋼琴，Ches Smith 打鼓，還有 DoYeon Kim 的 25 弦伽倻琴。曲名一首借一位作者，Naomi Klein、George Saunders、Angela Davis 都在裡面，其中一首直接叫〈Corporate Tax as a Percentage of Total Federal Revenue in the US, 1952, 1975, and 1998〉。一月在布魯克林錄了兩天。我還沒摸清伽倻琴在哪些段落浮出來，再聽兩遍再說。

When harmonia mundi signed the RPO and Petrenko in 2025, its head, Christian Girardin, admitted that symphonic repertoire had long been far from the label's image. This live Royal Albert Hall recording is one result. The Guardian counts it as the third new Alpine Symphony in a year and finds Petrenko taking the slowest path up the mountain, saving his weight for the "Vision" at the summit and the "Elegy" before the descent. 2025 年在皇家阿爾伯特音樂廳現場錄的。harmonia mundi 向來以古樂與室內樂出名，廠牌負責人 Christian Girardin 宣佈和皇家愛樂合作時也承認，交響曲目一直離廠牌形象很遠。Guardian 指出這是一年裡第三個《阿爾卑斯交響曲》新錄音，前面還有 Gardner 和 Collon；Petrenko 走得最慢，把力氣留給山頂的〈Vision〉和下山前的〈Elegy〉。他 2020 年已經和奧斯陸愛樂錄過一次。
