Wink Wink 2011 - A bit of a change this year

Motion Sickness of Time Travel - Seeping Through the Veil of the Unconscious
I guess this is pretty Grouper-esque but there are far fewer folk influences here. In general it fits in a space between the beatless abstract synth music of Keith Fullerton Whitman and the hypnagogic girl-pop of Nite Jewel. Boomkat tends to overemphasize things and while they make "Telepathy" out to be a great song, there seems to be a tape / synth hiss that lasts through most of the song that will rub some people the wrong way.
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---*Initial copies come on ultra-limited green vinyl. Beautiful layered vocals and electronics - a must for fans of Grouper.* Sublime temporal intervention of fragile drone pop from Motion Sickness Of Time Travel, the solo alias of Hooker Vision co-curator, Rachel Evans. Between graduating from college and starting grad school last year she committed these five tracks onto a cassette for Digitalis which has since been remastered onto emerald green vinyl by Brad Rose, who hailed the album as "the best demo I've ever received" - and it's really easy to believe him. 'Seeping Through The Veil of the Unconscious' finds Evans' individual sound suspended like a time-lapsed image of Grouper's angelic reveries or a more minimal, gaseous take on the sound made by Stellar Om Source. This is the sort of music you inhale with your ears, catching its subtly harmonised notes in your pleasure centres like some tingling rare space gas. Gazing out into the twinkling slow synth haemorrhage 'Clairvoyance', wordless vocals drift by like space dust on an endless cosmic voyage, while 'Mental Projection' is laced with the same kind of after-hours substance that informed the finest post-Detroit UK electronica. However, the album's guiding star has to be the radiant 'Telepathy', a heart-stopping late night lullaby of half-heard vocal fragrances redolent of Altar Eagle albeit within a darkly rhythmic and strange 3D sound sphere. The detailed crevices and dense pop essence of this album takes everything she's done before to incredible new heights, hence our highest recommendation for lovers of midnight electronic romance.

Whistla - Pillowtalk
An extended remix EP from the L2S boss. Future Garage.
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Future Garage ringleader drops the soul-infused 2-step of 'Pillowtalk' backed with solid refits by VVV, Submerse, Duncan Powell, KMA and the rest. Skip to the Duncan Powell mix for razor cut 2-step twitch rhythms or go to Submerse for the ruffed-up techy sound or KMA for a deadly junglist swivel. Texan producer VVV gives a bubblin' and bobblin' version with hints of Zomby's killer rhythm programming and Para gives a useful, scene-setting mix on the brink of Garage and 'Ardcore.

I was lucky enough to snag a copy of that Motion Sickness of Time Travel album when it came out on cassette earlier last year and it's one of my most listened to purchases of the past several months. Really wonderful stuff and it sounds even better on vinyl! Probably almost impossible to buy either version at this point but people should buy other stuff by her, her recent stuff especially has all been great.

Hopefully not! I ordered one of the green vinyl copies, which should only number in the low hundreds, if that. Hopefully they're aiming for a wider release of normal vinyl sometime soon.
