On Repeat: Oslo, Nottingham, Phoenix

Home/office playlist

On Sundays I try to at least quickly note some of my favorite listening from the week prior — things I would later regret having not written about in more depth, so better to share here briefly than not at all.

▰ “Deep Green” is a fantastic, slow-burn track off Eivind Aarset’s new album, Strange Hands, which features the electric guitarist with bassist Audun Erlien and the dual drums/percussion team of Wetle Holte and Erland Dahlen. Aarset is based in Oslo, Norway.

▰ Blissful slice of everyday sound and granular synthesis, from Caustic Gates, of Nottingham, United Kingdom:

▰ Axercism 2: No Cuts is subterranean guitar noise, just shy of half an hour of experiments from Parker Weston (based in Phoenix, Arizona), who describes it as “Folded times of extension and preparedness.” (The automated embed is failing, which happens on occasion, so just click through to the recording’s Bandcamp page.)
