'On the Grounds of Indecency' is the new album by Swoop and Cross (Ruben do Vale). Merging neoclassical, ambient and drone textures, Ruben crafts intimate soundscapes blending piano, field recordings, virtual instruments, electronics and effects. @swoopandcross.bsky.social

Société oblique is the new album by French sound artist yyate. Unbound by convention or genre, the record blends computer music, years of accumulated field recordings and delayed attempts at rhythm, blurring the line between the natural and the synthetic. perceptualtapes.bandcamp.com/album/soci-t...
