Edinburgh In the Letter

Much gratitude to Blair for highlighting LF17 / Edinburgh in The Letter this week:

“LF17 / Edinburgh is the latest in the LIFEFILES series and features Louisiana artist Elizabeth Joan Kelly. Previous contributors include Simon Fisher Turner, Xqui, Audio Obscura, Maps and more. The idea behind the series is simple, an artist receives some recordings (I assume from the label Mortality Tables) and they respond in a fitting manner. The recordings could be “from places, people, objects, moments in time, environments and quotidian events”. This time round, the sounds come from the capital of Scotland, Edinburgh!”

YWRT on Permutations, Gated Canal, Avant Music News, and more

It was a big weekend for Orca, Attack!’s new cassingle out on superpolar Taïps.

First up, Avant Music News named You Won’t Remember This a “pick of the week”!

Then, Bill Barnett headed off a new episode of Permutations on WVUD with Side B from the cassingle, “World Map.” The archive is on Mixcloud or below:

The folks from Front & Follow played “You Won’t Remember This” on Reform Radio’s Gated Canal Community Radio show amongst the normal crisp talk; also available om Mixcloud or below.

The Letter UK was listening to Orca, Attack! on April 2.

And more to come! Kate Bosworth will be playing a track on tonight’s Dark Train on Warminster Radio at 22:00 BST (4pm CST), be sure to tune in.

The Letter review

Blair Millen from The Letter just posted an 8/10 review rating for Farewell, Doomed Planet! alongside a very thoughtful analysis that’s still making me blush. For example, “…while Whaliens is as good as anything by Loscil and Cosmonaut Chorus is sibling-rivalry to Julianna Barwick, this is a distinctly unique take on electronic music that demands celebration.” You can read the full review over on the blog.
