matt endahl/christopher riggs - tangible but not communicated
electric guitar and piano are turned into instruments of shimmering drone and harsh noise until everything breaks down into a no-fi free jazz jam.

christopher riggs - riggs home security
solo electric guitar. side A is super slow, underwater strings. spent too much time listening to the Squid and playing with the reverb on a broken guitar amp. high-pitched guitar feedback dominates side B with a brief interruption from a choir of fuzzed out 12-string power chords.

Sean McCann - Haven
I stopped listening to Post-Rock when I thought the genre was unable to cut away the fat of its excess bullshit posturing, stupid lyrics, and flaccid musical experimental. It should have been stripped down to cheap pathos and simple repetition. On this C-71 Sean McCann does just that. Synthesized strings that rise and fall over and over with tension and release. Rules.

Bent Spoon Duo - Fossils of Slumber
Chris Dadge and Scott Munro of Calgary take a different approach than Schnüffler to the act of breathing new life into improvised experimental music. The close listening and quick interactions are there but instruments, players, forms, and listeners all seem damaged. It's as if the Art Ensemble traveled in a time machine with all their tiny instruments to the present day but got all fucked up in the process.
