Swarrrm – Nise Kyuseishu Domo (Thee Imitation Messiahs)
Some may say grindcore.Some other chaotic music.And the rest of the world,just noise.This time,the average listener wins by sudden death.No,the label given is not right.But it is better for your own good,not to make a single effort to place Swarrrm in a particular genre.
Yes,they still use guitar,bass,drums and vocals.Yes,they say they play grindcore and love hardcore punk.And yes,that is a cover with some typical elements of fast and extreme music.But now it's time to stop lucky guessing.Mandolin is the first picture that your symbolic thinking delivers you,and suddenly you remember the last song is called "putrecence".
I will try to give some advice.Jazz,no wave,noise rock,crust and somewhere there is a piano.No,they are not tags,just some little gasps of air.Oh yes,and the term "emotional" will cut you in half.

Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou - Ethiopiques Vol. 21: Piano Solo
No,you won't fine her in some independent movie's soundtrack or being sampled for happy-go lucky artist.Modern european and american structures combined with blues technics,all blended with Ethiopian tradition.Magnificent beyond words and with a personal touch that is very hard to find.

Basil Kirchin - Abstractions of the Industrial North
A man of disguise and variation,Basil Kirchin always seems to amaze me.Although this release reffers to his soundtrack experimentations,you can clearly see his compelling roots.
Somewhere between surrealism and genius,Kirchin insisted on creating music for fiction movies.Free from optical and musical boundaries,using tapes and field recordings managed to create his own system.A system full of eastern sounds,psychedelic touches,jazz patterns and contemporary orchestration.
Well,this should be more of a movie critic since Kirchin's vision was to give up his jazz restrictions and create more fluid acts but i decided not to give up spoilers.
