The Best Field Recordings on Bandcamp, October 2025
Source: Bandcamp Daily. Bandcamp hosts an amazing array of field recordings from around the world, made by musicians and sound artists as well as professional field recordists. In this column, we highlight the best sounds recorded outside the studio and released in the last month. This installment features recordings of Slovenian forests and Chilean wetlands; wires stretched across the Italian countryside; an abandoned Norwegian town; and a music-less Czech concert.

AMN Reviews: Univers Zero â Live at the Triton 2009 (2025; Sub Rosa)
Full disclosure - I am a much bigger fan of the 1970s and 1980s Univers Zero than of its post-revival incarnation that emerged in 1999. That said, Live at the Triton 2009 is a worthwhile addition to the band's discography for fans of any of its periods. Recorded live in 2009 and released just days ago, the album is a well-produced and confidently-performed set that includes three pieces from the groupâs early years and three more recent compositions.

But every month, weâll take a look at some of the best composer-driven music to surface here on Bandcampâthat which makes room for electronic experimentation, improvisation, and powerful takes on old classics.

Hat Hut Profiled
Source: Bandcamp Daily. Fifty years ago, in Switzerland, a little record label was born. Swiss jazz fan Werner X. Uehlinger grew up listening to the music on American armed forces radio in the years after World War II. As he grew older, he told an AllAboutJazz interviewer in 2003, he had more and more trouble finding the albums he wanted. After he saw an ad for a self-produced album by singular avant-gardist Joe McPhee, he wrote to McPhee and bought the record.

Source: Essential Tremors. Bassist Melvin Gibbs has played on many seminal records youâre very familiar with, and likely many you arenât, almost 200 in total. Some of his better-known work includes playing with drummer Ronald Shannon Jackson, guitarist Sonny Sharrock, as well as Rollins Band, and Arto Lindsay. Although having played in stylistically varied projects, there is one constant among all them, which is Gibbsâ palpable presence, as heâs not a typical âsessionâ player or one to recede into the background.

The Bottle Tapes Reviewed
Source: Burning Ambulance. The Bottle Tapes is a new 6CD set documenting the Empty Bottle Jazz & Improvised Music Series, a more or less weekly concert series put together by writer John Corbett and saxophonist/composer Ken Vandermark and held in a punk rock club for a decade, from 1996 to 2005. And in addition to being a stunning collection of performances, many by unique ensembles, itâs a document of that unique Chicago spirit, of people getting together week after week for a decade to create something larger than themselves. Not just a gig, but a scene, an artistic environment that continues to inspire, 20 years after it happened.

AMN Reviews: Sublimatio Mortis â Ghur (2025; Cyclic Law)
Sublimatio Mortis is a Canadian duo that, at least on this latest release, focuses on deep, slow drones with bassy throat singing and chant. Over the course of three long tracks spanning 55 minutes, Ghur is an exercise in wall-shaking frequencies coupled with, electronics, static, and guttural vocalizations that provide a haunting yet modern atmosphere. The sound palette on these tracks is often sparse - overlapping drones that buzz with dark energy, growls from the abyss, and perhaps a chromatic sweep from a synth.

AMN Reviews: Eden LantsĂȘm â My Guts Rest Upon Your Lips Like the Breath of Forgotten Lovers (2025; Miracles from the Gutter)
Forget the title. This is a Zeuhl album. A metal-infused Zeuhl album by a one-man band. On it, Tim Nyss plays drums, basses, guitars, piano, synths, and saxophone. But what you'll hear the most are drums, bass and guitars dropping some intense undulating rhythms reminiscent of the Magma songbook. Indeed, there are strong hints, of Tröller Tanz, Zombies, and MekanĂŻk DestruktĂŻáș Kommandöh, sans vocals of course.

The Best Experimental Music on Bandcamp, October 2025Â
Source: Bandcamp Daily. All kinds of experimental music can be found on Bandcamp: free jazz, avant-rock, dense noise, outer limits electronics, deconstructed folk, abstract spoken word, and so much more. If an artist is trying something new with an established form or inventing a new one completely, thereâs a good chance theyâre doing it on Bandcamp. Each month, Marc Masters picks some of the best releases from across this wide, exploratory spectrum. Our October selection includes cello loops, manipulated voices, minimalist electronics, and radical interpretations of Van Halen.
