A new album review from Roberto Mandolini is in this months edition of Rockerilla magazine.Thank you!

"A work divided in half: in the first part, the 'usual' fusion of exotic atmospheres stuffed dreamy sounds; in the second, a psychedelia that is always colorful but closer to jazz. NEW DIRECTIONS."

Big announcement: we're adding smell to zoom. People can smell you on zoom meetings now. We realize nobody asked for this but technological innovation knows no bounds

A benefit compilation for artists affected by LA Wildfires is now out today from Island House Recordings.

I was fortunate enough to have a track on this release, along with some other major heady bands.

Please spare a few bucks for a good cause πŸ™ and enjoy the tunes.

@islandhouserecs.bsky.social just doesn’t miss. Two tapes the label released at the end of 2024, albums by Ultisol and Swim Ignorant Fire, are daringly original hallucinatory journeys for the ears. Read more about them here: recordcratesunited.com/2025/01/19/t...

Thanks to Keith at Record Crates United for mentioning our latest endeavor from Island House Recordings.

Cosmic exotic?
cosmic country on a beach? We don't know what to call it, but we're happy it's finding some ears.

What I Heard in 2024 It’s funny, I initially didn’t think I had listened to nearly enough music to make an end of year list like this due to a lack of time, but once I got started, I realized how crazy that…

We've been quiet, getting a few things ready for the new year, but here are some things to check out.

Verdita has been added to the latest episode of Battery Operated by Mike Horn from Seawind of Battery.

The album was also added to RCU's 2024 best of list
