The sub-bass on this record is the sort that rearranges objects on a shelf, and the most interesting thing The Quietus had to say about it is that the weight reads as hospitality rather than aggression. That sounds like a paradox until you hear how Felicia Chen, the Berlin-based artist behind Dis Fig, has staged it. Her first solo album since PURGE, seven years ago, is built as a kind of chamber with a host: the poet The Wind Between opens "The Account" and keeps returning as narrator, leading you from room to room. The heaviest room is "The Snake You Built," with Lee Buford of The Body on drums and Liam Andrews of BIG|BRAVE on bass. The quietest is "Mystic One," a single voice and a piano somewhere down the hall. In between, years of collaborations with The Bug and The Body have plainly taught her where to put the floor. Dis Fig 是 Felicia Chen,人在柏林。上一張個人專輯《PURGE》要往前數七年,那之後大家多半是在別人的唱片上認識她:跟 The Bug 合作的《In Blue》,跟 The Body 合作的《Orchards of a Futile Heaven》。這次回到自己名下,她給了一個很具體的設計。

Every cover this Tokyo duo has put out, as far back as I can find, has been drawn by the same illustrator, Tomoko Oshima(大島智子), and this one, their first album in about five years, is no exception. The title translates roughly as "even when you grow up, the night is still dark." The label describes a record made after a stretch when music was hard to face, moving back and forth between childhood memory and the present. 宇宙ネコ子(Uchu Nekoko)今天發售的新作,距上一張 2021 年的『日の當たる場所にきてよ』大約五年。組合 2012 年成立,現在是 nemuko 和 kano 兩個人。店鋪文案說,這張是在一段很難面對音樂的時期之後,在童年記憶和現在之間來回走著做出來的;片名直譯是「就算長大了,夜還是黑的」。封面和插畫照舊出自影像藝術家大島智子,十幾年來這個組合的樣子幾乎都是她畫的。

This was meant to come out last year; a hospital stay pushed it back. The singer of Urbangarde opens with a song called "Vermilion blood," about her outlook and her troubles past and present, and for the first time she produced every track herself. Her last fully original album, in 2019, was produced by Toshiki Kadomatsu. It ends with a cover of the chanson "Hymne à l'amour." 浜崎容子(Yoko Hamasaki)是アーバンギャルド的主唱。上一張完全原創的個人專輯是 2019 年的『BLIND LOVE』,製作人是角松敏生;這張『マグマ』是她第一次全部曲目自己製作。原本去年就該發,她緊急住院,拖到了今天。開場〈Vermilion blood〉寫自己的人生觀和過去、現在的煩惱,最後一首翻唱香頌「愛の讃歌」。

The title is lifted from a John Updike story, and the songs share Updike's habit of watching people from a slight remove, close enough to notice what they're wearing, far enough to be polite. Rouse cut the basic tracks live in Nashville in the mornings, with producer Brad Jones on bass and Fred Eltringham on drums, then overdubbed after lunch while the takes were still fresh; a few songs were recorded in Spain. On "Red Apple Red," Chris Carmichael plays every string part himself. It is his first record for New West. 片名借自 John Updike 的一篇短篇小說,歌裡的人也都隔著一點距離被看著。錄法很老派:在 Nashville 上午現場錄基礎軌,吃完午飯趁新鮮疊錄,製作人 Brad Jones 順手彈貝斯,鼓手是 Fred Eltringham,少數幾首在西班牙錄。〈Red Apple Red〉的小提琴、中提琴和大提琴都是 Chris Carmichael 一個人拉的。這是他和 New West 簽約後的第一張。

Cameron Stallones made this alone at home in the San Fernando Valley, with Jack Callahan helping on the mix. "Proper" is the nearest he comes to a song: a tin-can rhythm, guitar and keyboard improvisations stacked on top, and his own voice, which turns up less often than you'd think. Cameron Stallones 在聖費爾南多谷的家裡一個人錄完,Jack Callahan 幫忙混音。開場〈Proper〉是全碟最像「歌」的一首,鐵皮一樣的節奏上疊著吉他與鍵盤的即興,他自己也開口唱了。Bandcamp Daily 的 Louis Pattison 把〈So Far〉的吉他比作 Mark Knopfler 在《Brothers In Arms》裡的彈法,在 Sun Araw 身上聽到恐怖海峽,這比喻我不太想承認,但聽完確實繞不開。

A Paris nonet built around drummer Xavier Gélard and pianist Camille Petit, who write and produce everything, with accordion, flute, cello and conga in the line-up and a choir on a few pieces. Most of it was cut live in the room. Their 2015 album Madeleine retold Vertigo from its heroine's point of view; this one is about the "missing time" that alien-abduction witnesses describe, and it leans much harder into jazz-rock. 巴黎的九人樂隊,核心是鼓手 Xavier Gélard 和鋼琴手 Camille Petit,兩人包辦作曲和製作;編制裡有手風琴、長笛、大提琴、康加鼓,有幾首還加了合唱團,大部分在錄音室現場錄。2015 年的《Madeleine》從《迷魂記》裡 Madeleine 的視角把那部電影重寫了一遍,這一張換成外星人綁架親歷者口中那段「丟掉的時間」。Bandcamp Daily 的 Dave Sumner 把它列進十月爵士榜,聽得出明顯轉向爵士搖滾。

It started in 2024 on two SP-404 samplers in a small bedroom in London, the room of Mohammad Mehrabani's daughter, and was finished by Eomac at his home studio in Wicklow. The title arrived in a Paris taxi: Mehrabani read out a list of candidates, Eomac asked what one of them meant, and the album became the answer. The samples come from charity-shop records and market stalls on road trips around the UK. Che Chen of 75 Dollar Bill plays guitar on "Whiff Tackle," Lester St. Louis brings cello, and Armand Hammer turn up on "As We Are." It's the duo's fifth album together, out on Planet Mu. 兩臺 SP-404,2024 年在倫敦 Mohammad Mehrabani 女兒的小臥室裡起稿,後來由愛爾蘭製作人 Eomac 在 Wicklow 的家庭錄音室編完。片名是在巴黎的計程車上冒出來的:Mehrabani 唸了一串備選,Eomac 問這是什麼意思,答案後來就成了整張專輯。取樣來自慈善二手店的唱片和英國公路旅行途中的市集攤位;75 Dollar Bill 的 Che Chen 在〈Whiff Tackle〉彈吉他,Armand Hammer 在〈As We Are〉。雙方合作的第五張,Planet Mu 發行。

比利時的 Crescendo Magazine 把這張讀作向 OSM 當年 Dutoit/Decca 時代致敬。舊團員已經所剩無幾,首席長笛 Timothy Hutchins 卻從 1978 年坐到現在,1980 年那版錄音裡吹長笛的也是他。新錄音在蒙特利爾 Maison symphonique 完成,《達夫尼斯》用 OSM 合唱團,Andrew Megill 排練。樂評 Tribot 最推《春之祭》的「大地之舞」。兩部都是為佳吉列夫的俄羅斯芭蕾舞團寫的。
