Trying to get back in the habit of my weekly(ish) answer to the question “What have you been listening to lately?” It’s lightly annotated because I don’t like re-posting material without providing some context. I hope to write more about some of these in the future, but didn’t want to delay sharing them:
▰ As of this writing, three tracks currently preview the upcoming (May 6) release of [*Sanctuary*](https://rupturedthelabel.bandcamp.com/album/sanctuary), an atmospheric collection of tracks by Daou (born in Beirut, based in Paris) that all emit the melancholy warble of tape loops set on decay mode.
▰ Isobel Waller-Bridge’s scores (*Fleabag*, *Vanity Fair*) are always worth listening to, and just check out the submerged-orchestra wonder of [“The Woman Who Ate Photographs,”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHDJo7Br4JY) a cue from season one of *Roar*.
▰ Google Translate tells me that “lye” is the translation of [“灰汁”](https://soundcloud.com/corrption/aku_fteb) — that’s the title of the latest snippet of transmogrified field recordings from prolific Japanese noisemaker Corruption, who here bends wind to their will.
