Beyond excited to announce the new frozen reeds, Psychic Resynthesis by Mark Fell, an instrumental work performed by Explore Ensemble. Wrapped in jaw-dropping artwork by Mark himself, this is a prismatic work of deep, timbral introspection. Pre-orders open! frozenreeds.bandcamp.com/album/psychi...

Now playing: Roland Kayn – Kybernetische Musik II. Slowly enveloping and haunting drone meanderings, carefully seeking new ways to intertwine and configure. Almost went full Boomkat there. Never go full Boomkat. In short - good stuff. www.discogs.com/release/8876...
