Slow it down and let the textures breathe: Song for a Gorgeous Blonde teeters on LoFi piano, backward guitars, and a poem by Anja in continued homage to Swedish icon Ingrid Bergman, while Stewart Keller scores a haunting 2D horror-adventure through dark dreams and otherworldly creatures. For Heads Only — Rolling Stone-featured jazz artist Mike Casey — excavates his own catalog into wonky, cinematic beats à la Flying Lotus and J Dilla, and Alex Routledge builds ambient IDM and psychedelic textures in real time on a Yamaha MODX8+. The Land Of returns with moody downtempo breaks and gorgeous synth lines on the Transient EP.
